Transcripts For RT Watching The Hawks 20240713

Country that rightfully purchased them well appears that theres no holds barred loop grab perpetrated by the United States bedroom government has of course found its way back home yes multiple state officials and local Health Groups from massachusetts to illinois to texas have been sounding the alarm that various federal agencies have been scooping up shipments of personal protective equipment and other valuable medical supplies for quite some time now according to a letter published in the new england journal of medicine by a medical doctor andrew artin steen with the Bay State Health of massachusetts 1st after spending valuable time just trying to convince the f. B. I. Not to confiscate his shipment of k n 95 respirators and face masks he was then soon shocked to learn that the department of Homeland Security was still considering redirecting his p. P. L. Only some quick some quick calls leading to intervention by our congressional representative prevented its seizure others my friends have not been so lucky remember back in march Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker revealed that a shipment of 3000000 masks were seized by federal authorities and then later at the beginning of april in new jersey freeholder director Chanelle Robinson announced that a shipment of 35000 masts had been scooped up also by federal officials these actions by the fed seem to fly in the face of the great brand name and cheap us president battle drums continued orders from up on high for states to be responsible for securing their own medical supplies and not reliant on the federal government. Was how can you do that donald when the federal government keeps out bathing or outright stealing from them with no real explanations as to why sounds like a good time to start watching the hawks before you know the feds come confiscate all of us. If you want to go on a city street you want to. Do so lets see the prices you always state. Rice is crazy see this least systemic deception is the late show which. So youll. Welcome everyone to watching the hawks i am i robot interisland so major they are just snatch and grab and all across the country now for the last 2 months or so absolutely and the thousands externally crazy but when you see it in action its a whole different level governors are trying to protect their their p. P. Equipment trying to make sure that they have what they need especially those in blue states because a President Trump has announced that hes really not trying to help them and and i think that you know what were seeing happen in real time is something that we havent seen in this country before especially not in pain to make times and. And even in my home state of illinois weve seen j. V. Pritzker actually announced that he was not going to share any information it was that something that was leaked but he definitely wanted to make sure the illinois residents were protected and he knew that he couldnt count on the federal government so he actually got supplies from china and thinker and they were secretly flown into the state to make sure that the Top Administration wouldnt compensate them thats incredible when you have governors like secretly flying in supplies just to keep the feds from from stealing them and then the crazy thing is is that the feds havent given really many good reasons as to why theyre doing it they still when confronted its kind of like well you know all to mentally the state got what it needed to over here after the fact or whatever even confronted at the International Level as to why were suddenly scooping up as we kind of dont really get any solid answers at least i havent seen any of the research that i was doing today in the trying to find a good answer from the feds no were absolutely not getting those answers and we the other problem is that the federal government has pushed back and many times that the requests that the states are having so remember of the later requests that came from new york all of a sudden we hear no they dont need those ventilators they dont need this p. P. Equipment somebody somehow is at these hospitals p. P. Equipment so they wanted to deny those requests so what does that leave states to do other than to try and find this stuff on their own and the problem is the states dont get the luxury of the federal government they cant create money to buy things they cant just go to the fed and say print to subsume more money you know the states cant do that they cant deficit spend its a lot of times in their very state state constitutions that they cant do that so theyre dependent so when theyre being outbid or having to outbid the or other countries or whoever thats all coming out of that state budget that they cant get back you know and thats whats really bad colorado was in the process of buying ventilators when fema swooped in them and just took them away governor jared polis declared either be in or out either let us know what were going to get and when were going to get them or stay out and let us buy them. You cant play both sides and thats exactly what trump and the federal Government Congress and all them are doing right now because no ones put a stop to it and the governors have spoken about this and theyve sounded you know loudly that they are not in a position to compete with the federal government in the open market for the reasons that you just stated you know a journalist david wall as well as actually wrote in new York Magazine he really kind of sum this up i think really good in that article he said we dont know where these supplies are going we dont know on what grounds they are being seized or threatened with seizure in the absence of an explanation its hard to come to any conclusion other than that this is simply a mafia government exerting control for the sake of control and that is a scary thought in a time of crisis that thats how far this country has fallen and that we have no real requests what happens when the government is actually the federal government is actually putting the states in a very tough spot because theyre not supplying this material to them at all theyre ignoring their requests theyre ignoring the requests for funding as well and the states have to go out on their own but now you know the federal government is jumping in and stealing things from them as well as some other countries you know what for those of liberty and the like you know for those of the liberty of those who lean on the right and go republican this is something that you should be up in arms over this is something that you should be screaming at donald trump and congress and i will say why are you doing this the fed should not be coming in and doing this whatsoever im a states rights person you know where all those people sounding off against this im out here and im get out there let them know what this is not good they choose their protests the thumb they chose the wrong one this is very true. While kobe 1000 tests remain in short supply and funding for virus treatment is dismal at best President Trump and conservative activists across the country want to open america a. S. A. P. And who better to keep help carry the message and told the line than chumps favorite crony attorney general bill barr falling under the weight of his ill informed commander in chief and crazed conservative activist barr is now threatening legal action against state governors the attorney general of the United States. Is willing and ready to encourage enjoying lawsuits brought on by upset citizens over the business restrictions put in place to save their lives meanwhile the Top Administration refuses to accept its all culpability in ignoring corona virus alerts from the World Health Organization china doctors and scientists leaving america behind in preparedness and relief but rest assured trump found someone to blame china and the president s minions in conservative states followed his lead Missouri Attorney general eric schmidt filed a lawsuit against the Chinese Government tuesday accusing them of lying and covering up the coronavirus. We might be in for the longest election cycle ever as the blame game for corona virus and the economic fallout its caused rages on joining us now is our team america correspondent. Thanks for having me guys always love coming on always a pleasure. So what is this lawsuit and why now so its interesting so as you mentioned. Her attorney general eric schmidt he is leading this case after talking with economists at the university of missouri where the state is actually looking to get upwards of 44000000000. 00 now missouri is the 1st state to file against china and to seek damages in this way and it could be the 1st of the many states doing this now according to the lawsuit it reads quote during the critical weeks of the initial outbreak chinese authorities deceive the public suppressed crucial information arrested whistleblowers tonight human to human transmission destroyed medical research had millions exposed to the virus and hoarded protective equipment causing a Global Pandemic that was preventable now today the Chinese Government called missouris lawsuit absolutely absurd saying that its purely malicious violates basic legal principles and that the Chinese Government has sovereign immunity because you cant sue an entire country now this lawsuit will face a number of a whole battles because of that but the missouri a. G. Says that hes already one step ahead of this arguing that the Chinese Communist party is a nonstate actor and that it is what gives him the legal argument that they can sue china because the amount of states and loves its frivolous lawsuits. Was a steve 1st of many lawsuits coming down the pike great question tyrrell and you know what actually it was announced this afternoon that at the time of this broadcast the mississippi will actually be also filing a lawsuit their state attorney general saying that they too have suffered because of this outbreak but now you also have both missouri and mississippi say geez theyre calling on their states congressional delegations to back a new bill put out by republicans tom cotton and dan crenshaw that would a man. The foreign sovereign immunity is act to create this narrow exception and to allow people to actually sue china people suing china now this bill is modeled after the justice to get sponsors of terrorism act which allowed americans to file civil claims against a foreign state for any injuries or death and that was passed 4 years ago with 97 of the 100 senators saying yes to it. And thats a lot of attorney attorney generals and lawsuits you now have bill barr saying d. O. J. Is looking into suing state governors right and this is actually interesting because this is all over the clashes between President Donald Trump as you mentioned trying to open up the states and the state governors saying no and how kind of to respond to the whole coronavirus most of it you know with most if not all states are on lockdown and both trump and bar say that businesses they need to have more freedom to operate and trump says that some governors have gone just way too far actually even accusing governors of keeping their people on quote house arrest now we have the cd see who is as far as we thats who we look to as far as you know seeing this research and one thats going to peak as far as this outbreak but theres a new surprising coming out that its a for a form of National Defense scientists at the Los Alamos Lab in new mexico now these scientists they consistently beat the c. D. C. When it comes to forecasting Infectious Diseases in particular like the bird flu ebola unfortunately these scientists go all the way down to the hour of when a virus is at its peak for new york state alone the forecast says that there is only a 60 percent chance that infectious infections have peaked and they also forecast that major populated states could be on this quote house arrest all the way until the end of 2020 theyre even forecasting you know schools are going to open this fall so it will be interesting were in for the overall you know its interesting to look at the chart is a lawsuit there just to touch that really quick but i am fine if we were going to have the ability to sue other countries than. States we cannot we we have to but allow other countries to sue us for our actions well we cant you know we cant have it both ways we cant be good oh hey you know but if the iraqis bring a lawsuit against as we did in the iraq war no no no no were not going to consent to that. You know its absolutely ridiculous but man alive really more lawsuits thats whats going to solve this problem and you know whats interesting is that you know china has come out saying that there is absolutely no way with these allegations the w. H. O. You know they could actually take china to the International Court of justice but heres the cabby out here people you have to consent to go to court whos going to want to consent to go to court you know youve got a traffic ticket and they say get it to court me show you can be like really have to go thats kind of the old think its also them too is its like im tired of the scapegoating you cant hold china accountable for our employers structure failure you cant hold china accountable that our you know Health Care Industry was a mess that our economy was a mess that all of these things were a mess that then led us to the state that were in today you cant hold them accountable our initial really slow response to that was of the Intelligence Community and many other people had said even the americans working at the show said even all the way back in november that they were telling us of the schools and congress that hey this thing could be coming down the pike might want to prepare for it and speaking of coming down the pipe you know not just these states and possibly the idea of you know american citizens suing china you also have germany now that is wanting to file suit against china for all their wrongdoing and theyre asking for 162000000000. 00 and its kind of one of these things again china has to consent so its going to be dead on arrival most likely yes you know its going to be hard to bring a lawsuit dont think i want to thank you as always for coming on for an hour on it always a pleasure all right as we go to break remember that you can also start watching the hawks on demand through the brand new portable t.

And online at portable dot to be yes this app will be available on more devices coming soon and coming up here on watching the hawks it appears that there is always time to rattle a few sabers for war and former cia agent whistleblower John Kiriakou joins us next to discuss what could be the next big u. S. War during the pandemic stay tuned to watching the. Show seemed wrong. Wrong just dont call. Me that hes yet to shape out these days he comes to educate and engage from it because the trail. When so many find themselves worlds apart when shes to look for common ground. Is your media a reflection of reality. In a world transformed. What will make you feel safe. Isolation for community. Are you going the right way or are you being led. Away. What is true what is faith. In a world corrupted you need to descend. To join us in the depths. Or remain in the shallows. As the u. S. Economy was booming growing numbers of people made homeless. You can work 40 hours d in a week and still not have enough to get housing everybody believes america still has the lead up to the reality of those who were not financially quality and the lack of Affordable Housing for a living minimum wage gave many people no choice. Thats been a problem with the city knows turn limits and told me stay away i dont miss. The food if there is no answer because its the required resource the most vulnerable are abandoned on the streets to become the invisible comes. All right earlier in the show we were discussing the recent protests popping up across the United States over the covert 9 teams stay at home and the social distance distancing orders and how the motivation behind many of those protests were direct result of the manipulation of the u. S. Populace is fear of tyranny and loss of liberty and will stay at home mothers and social distancing for the safety of the community are not and should not be cause for constitutional concern that doesnt mean a citizen should not remain vigilant in their protection of their most basic of rights in a time of crisis taking our eye off that ball is how we got stuck with constitutional shredding laws like those bound in the patriot act and that is why many are starting to raise the alarm over the potential use of u. S. Military personnel here at home in the battle against this virus newsweek reported recently that the u. S. Military is preparing forces to assume a larger role in the Coronavirus Response including the Controversial Mission of quelling civil disturbances and then forcing the law a mission that the military has not engaged in for almost 30 years joining us now to discuss the dangers of deploying the u. S. Military here at home in a time of crisis not for freeman the member of the Coordinator Committee for the black alliance for peace and thats always a pleasure having you on sir thank you its always a pleasure to be so i want to start with just give people an idea of what are the major potential dangers found in using the u. S. Military not just the National Guard which is under control of state governors but the u. S. Military Army Navy Air force in operations domestically during a time of crisis. Well these are the people who are pretty much training and to come from enemy combatants as well and me thinking. Thinking that or being trained dentists who have the disposition of the people that theyre fighting or confronting are less worthy of humanity or life and liberty and so when you put that on the street and im again we have to remember that in the United States for it was colonized people black and brown working class people already you know who are under a Police State Situation so that the danger in what you asked are you describing is that we can there will be combining the mentality that is fostered in military training to fight socalled terrorists in whatever you can before you speak communist and people who are not as worthy combine that with the sort of inherent. Racists attitudes in class this attitudes of the u. S. With its force that is a very diverse cocktail. That has there been any part of examples where the u. S. Military was used domestically at a time of crisis and if there is if this for president s for that kind of the point. Theres been a few yes. We can look at it its a few katrina Hurricane Katrina when that happened there was a number of people who were scrambling for survival and having to scramble and get whatever they could and it the military was sent in there and then people some people may not remember how old people are but we used to see in the mill that in the media. Reports of people called looting in ventilating when you really talked about a dire situation people really just trying to scramble for whatever they could to deliver survive and in that instance if they were really cruel and it came had to come out leader instances of people being extra just the chillul of brutalized by both police and military on them in one instance there was a man who was shot in the back and then they proceed to kick him several times. Then other other instances are doing the right ticking is that they were people who. You know of the. Pressure cooker was all faster the beating of rodney king and a lot of the verdicts were really on people felt they didnt like the verdict still it was that they were rebellions we call it we billions of rights because people rebelling over centuries of Police Brutality not incident but in that instance they also brought the National Guard in there were there were fatalities in terms of those exchanges and then during the this is the rebellions on dr king when dr king was assassinated the same thing happen and there were also. Due to you know the police didnt and the military and the and we you know black and brown people get the worst end of those. That makes it scary because you see the idea being floated and kind of a common allies do you know him of language of the media i mean with more than a good healthy percent of the new York City Police Department Officers recently reported through the illness or self quarantine of the good numbers like over 15 and even Higher Police absentee rates elsewhere an opinion piece in the Washington Post help pontificated about how active u. S. Military members could potentially fill the role those roles of the police writing quote they might need to backstop him back to a police force as a hard hit communities might soon need major assistance with patrolling the streets in forcing restrictions on movement to turn to crime and other tasks theres a pretty unbelievable language do you believe that this could actually be a realistic possibility given the current state of the country to the bays the something that we could see. Oh i think theres no one there talking about it and i think the Washington Post piece you were talking about was coauthored by 3 people and they were they were it was that of they make themselves the Police Department i think it was in new York City Police and they were all from theyre all now arent working so people are consistent you people the u. S. Army i think it was a couple over there to the u. S. I was about 3 ethics 3 people who are authors in that in that. Article and what theyre anticipating and i think theres also historical precedent and that and move we need to remember that the. There he values after the in the 1960 dr king they didnt really report they do write reports every now and then the. 2 to try to figure out the root causes and how to deal with riots or maybe avoid them and theres the kind of chemistry 968. 00 and so one of the things that it showed and it was pretty i think certainly done report was the title civil unrest that we could see the type of dissatisfaction with basic things that we now know are going to be. Are going to be. Costs. Were going to look at 32 percent the top of their predicting a 30 percent Unemployment Rate the biggest ever seen since since the great Great Depression theres still actually of food because of the the supply of food are being disrupted because of because of the cold in 1000 in the sort of distancing than in people being out of work the system the capitalist system and we have to attribute it to that is not designed because we dont see that theyre saying now come with the same situation another place that is not designed to handle the type of thing or are not designed to create thought of cooperation that is needed even on the on the domestic level where all the countries people are people are involved in organizing process theres a lot of peace. To certain things and even to be able to manage things in a way that it dont make sense here is that they are allowed to go to go to the supermarket maybe a more distance regulated fashion the things called and said here. Did the powers that be are seen in a threat to the status quo or people are seen that in the inefficiencies of the net into the capitalism and they dont want to become even more formidable so they not instead of feeding people that housing people are things that were seeing happen in us response to this but its not for us that they dont know they dont want it for themselves but they cant last because it was against capitalism so their response would be to send in military in the middle east to try to quell dissent well basically we got what we got going to force what you other kids are going to out of this and educating people on the barriers about kind of operating sort of where i was coming out of when i was one of the sort. When i was growing up my nana always going to be dinner that side of carrots the belief was as you get older youre going to need them because youre right if i go get a cheap one of the will to some age related Macular Degeneration a better 11000000 people in the u.
