A listen. Up doing. Great citizens of this country to a certain extent and to a large extent as warriors. The warriors we cant keep our country close we have to put our country. Warriors yes a we are all of us we are soldiers of love fight in the great war against. Wages who exactly are we fighting or more importantly what exactly are we fighting for are we fighting the virus that threatens us are we fighting for the health and safety of our friends and loved ones well my friends the president and sort of those questions as well take it away donald i created with a lot of other very talented people and the people of our country the greatest economy in the history of the world the best numbers weve ever had the best stuff markets i think we had 144 days of wreckage stock markets and then. They said we have to close our country now its time to open it up. Yes my Friends America will be opening up soon not for the ideals of liberty and freedom definitely not for safety your health or its own but the greater good of wall street and the one percent and of course mr trumps impending reelection we cant forget that we are fighting for that too bad its why we are warriors well if you look at how america treats its soldiers and veterans i think the more apt word to use in this new war would be cannon fodder because as g 8 here writes in the nation the botched Pandemic Response resembles americas failed wars in vietnam and iraq not just in that the 2 but in terms of been justice as those as with those wars there is no real shared sacrifice that is so very very true you see like always the poor and working class americans the nurses the m. T. A. Workers the meat packers theyll face the real wrath of this pandemic while the elite president bone spurs and nancy pelosi are super expensive ice cream they get to sit this one out and their yachts and mansions as they make their donors money off of your heart and sacrifices and putting your own butt on the line and i think that is why we are here today watching the hawks. In a city. That is so you. See the crisis you always still see. Great city this least systemic just says so which. So brings up as. Well the woman watching the i robot and im obese across you know maze of theyre using a lot of war language to describe americas response to this virus hear the president call us all warriors were warriors you know fighting to reopen them. So wall street can make money then i think few people put forward a very interesting scenario and theres some well if or if were going to use war language then we should start looking at people who failed the United States as war criminals people white people like the you know the politicians who stand up and have allowed 70000 of us to buy i like it its a way of turning at the its a way of turning this whole thing on its head because what President Trump is trying to do is create this sense of patriotism among americans if youre fighting against a invader if youre fighting against someone some someone or something that is trying to destroy the United States theres a rally around the flag that comes with that and to have Congress People having Congress People to stand up to showcase that this theres another side of that and to paint that picture as well i think is going to help many people to be able to wade through this dichotomy that the president himself set up because look no im saying that we shouldnt be you know fighting for our rights and liberties and no ones saying that we shouldnt be fighting and doing everything we can to stay healthy and safe as a country but this couching it in order to maintain order with a spy you got to be good soldiers and sacrifice a few to the cause but whats the cause of all wall street wall street only you know only 30 percent or so of americans actually have money in wall street that doesnt represent the whole the economy is not america i know its a popular thing to say but capitalism isnt what made this country great absolutely and wall street doesnt care about the death toll and you know and weve seen that there is no theres no you know remorse from them as it relates to the thousands of americans who potentially lives are at stake right now and will be if we open up without having the precautions necessary we know that we dont have a vaccine thats probably years out actually we know that we are able to Contact Trace were not able to do it effectively and there are many states that are trying to create their own Contact Tracing teams but even thats going to take a while and its a long time before were out of the dark on this but you know you know who is also i would include in the you know 19. Pontificating on who considered a war criminal your people profit off of the hurt and sorrow of others United Airlines announced that they would be cutting 15000 airport staff and baggage handlers hours from 40 to 30 hours a week this comes after the u. S. Treasury gave United Airlines part of the corona coronavirus aid relief and Economic Security or carriers always love those names. They gave the airline 5000000000. 00 of us tax dollars but now suddenly theyre cutting down hours of their staff. And they can get away with it because the conditions for accepting federal support stated the airlines have to retain their staff at the same pay rates but didnt mention how many hours they could work being go and you know the private sector is very shrill when it comes to things like this and they know that they cant let those individuals go because they will be a buy a lation of the terms of the money that they agreed to get however they can reduce these hours and everything is extremely fine there is no Penalty Associated with that at all it doesnt hurt the employees absolutely but this is something that we should have seen coming it should have actually been a part of aig there shouldve been a clause in there that eliminated that being a practice as well because weve seen this time and time again if you tell someone that they cant fire people they wont do it however they will put them in a very stimulus position but we will never see those causes why because of lobbyists and guess who is next on the docket to steal taxpayer money during the covert pandemic leaf airing of the intercept is now reporting that here on k. Street in washington d. C. Lobbyists have stepped up a campaign to make sure professional influence peddlers are eligible for taxpayer funds the push also includes a demand for an additional 25000000000. 00 for canceled events and other laws revenue from the coronavirus camp pandemic yes my friends now lobbyists want our tax dollars the same ones that they steal from us for whoevers paying them i mean its just getting a dig we have to bail out lobbyists no. Professional influence peddler in that is that the what they are doing a lobbyist will always find a way to crawl from under some rock and take money it doesnt matter what situation it is they will find that way they have been part and parcel of creating a lot of the legislation that has hurt people civically those in times of trouble specifically those when it came to trying to get money to get Affordable Housing and things like that lobbyists have not been the friends of the American Public who are an extremely long time and right now they found just another way where they end up with money in their pockets while everyone else is struggling and so the great great great lets bail them out today theyre not able to you know influence washington they have those big luxurious parties where they can whine and died and so you vote for this bill because it helps all of this small little sector of the population ill leave it with this just to get your reaction to this according to the Washington Post caterpillar Stanley Black and decker pretty household names levi strauss the jeans maker Office FurnitureCompany Steel case and yes the World Wrestling entertainment have paid out a combined 700000000. 00 in cash dividends to shareholders while at the same time shattering operations and laying off employees during this covert 19 pandemic that says a lot that theyre paying off shareholders weve been laying people will. Follow the money. People are eager to go back to normal whatever that is 19 drastically changed the way we do business and manage our daily lives everything from church and shopping to school and the way we work has been up ended and not everyone is happy for weeks now parents have been pseudo homeschooling their kids as primary secondary and collegiate schools are shut down though they are doing their level best the stress of being a working parent and a 1000000000 teacher is taking its course Remote Learning was supposed to be the answer but its wrought with problems like Student Engagement in a classroom engagement can be monitored teacher. Going to just bring flair and excitement to the course work Student Learning styles can be adapted to but those far remote learners havent seen these types of opportunities through learning the other big issue is one of access low income and minority students tend to fare worse in Remote Learning environments these students dont have a harder time because of education with pension deficiencies but because of barriers like a lack of personal computer wife by yes in 2020 the Digital Divide is widening the push to get kids back in the classroom is being led by districts across america with educators fearful that more time out who was all in a brain drain and students falling behind but not everyone is suffering from the pandemic changes in fact more employers are considering making permanent work from home positions yeah its a covert 19 for c. E. O. s to learn that folks can be productive without sitting in a Traditional Office space or being micromanaged shock. Nationwide the insurance giant recently announced a work model allowing the majority of their locations to continue working from home this move also saves businesses and corporations big bucks if they pull out of real contracts and say goodbye to high rise buildings the move will spell trouble for commercial real estate but flexibility save if the transportation cost in more peace of mind for workers this is 1. 00 of the most interesting kind of contrasts to come out of what weve been dealing with over the last few months is a. Big businesses are realizing that like you said brilliantly the people can work from home and they can be productive in their work just as hard as whether theyre in a cubicle or sitting at their kitchen kitchen counter. But then they also see the contrast of them education falling off you know that the Remote Learning is just failing miserably where you know what you know what is it about the current design of Remote Learning thats thats not working with the experience was with a few things the current design of Remote Learning didnt take into consideration 2 of the largest. Of students one being those students who have special needs and special education coursework those students are going to require a lot more on the on the front end when it comes to different adaptations for their learning be it whether they are whether they have more more teachers more Information Available to them how many times a day are they possibly logging in are they getting the are they getting the appropriate types of instructional materials things like that in addition to education as a 2nd language learners those learners for the most part many districts were already having some issues in the classroom themselves because you didnt have enough teachers to facilitate what was facilitate things that would meet their needs thats also not happening online in addition to that there is no way of monitoring how long these students are spending on any given assignment or online and the parents themselves arent necessarily trained in monitoring or being able to answer several of the questions you and i talked about this earlier specifically when it comes to math and common core neither one of us were doing common core math. And recent studies show that even harvard graduates cannot do common core math these are some of the most brilliant students and Brilliant Minds in the country they cant figure it out either so the expectation that a parent who is a working parent is also able to sit down and do this with their children when it wasnt something they functionally did at all or had to do is also causing it i could imagine. That you brought to the Digital Divide the you know we a lot of people take for granted that everyone has access to the internet but the Digital Divide is a major important piece of why whats the trouble with Remote Learning and why its not quite working right now exactly and it was hers across rule and urban areas so we take into consideration those who are from low income households but in addition to that a lot of students who are minority students and students who live in areas that just did not have access to internet or dont have a laptop at home i think that because were in the era of 2020 and because so many people have social media or have social media. At the moment there is a notion that there isnt a Digital Divide right now we have over 800000 households in metropolitan new york alone that dont have access while were talking about new york city if were move down to places like kansas nebraska go to mississippi you have whole swaths of the state where there is no Internet Access there are schools that dont have Internet Access themselves that kind of makes a good it makes that argument you know the we need that should be a public utility like somehow you know make it safe to the government just cant Read Everything that we do want to i dont want that but at the end of the day the internet the internet x. X. Or should be treated like electricity at this point no no i absolutely agree and its something that i know that there are different corporations that are working towards trying to make that happen this should have speeded it up a bit but we havent seen it all right everybody as we go to break remember that you can also start watching the hawks on demand or the brand or portable t. V. Up available on smartphones through google play on the Apple App Store by searching portable t v or you can stream or portable t. V. Up on apple t. V. Coming up we delve into 2 stories the mainstream Corporate News media has been afraid to dig into the cohost of by any means necessary jackie and sean black wednesday to. You cannot be both with the yeah you want. Back in the 1970 s. I recall supplemental advertising was illegal you know like soft drink companies would run an image so fast on the commercial of somebody you know in a desert you know dehydrated and this was. It in your unconscious mind and this was deemed illegal and subliminal ads were taboo but you know we live in an age where all all communication is supplemental internet tax the subconscious and the unconscious in the form of me. To recruit them and you have on Little People can keep borrowing im going to member that lead to how we want to problem. Body to treat. Do we i was really. Speaking what he she knew. Business which was of women rising to. The u. N. You know well see you ask yourself how are you going to stave off it how are you going to protect yourself the music of a few of the fools with your phone cliff and you have not got one and you 2 and it was ok what if you do what you do you want to. Be fulfilled. Its a lot of the stuff that will just come up is because it is there is it is going to say but im not where you got it will is they were. Just wrong its using technology where theyve been able to be x. These peoples private information on a cell phone and see what youve even if you have crossed offs with somebody who is positive want to run a virus and if youre not if you have a meeting key scenes you misused a cost conscious somebody has tested positive keys you must be in i mean tina. But i think that there was a interesting thing is that all the people around them or are in the same situation. All right welcome back as we cross over the middle of the week im headed towards the weekend with new stories breaking left or right and sunder we thought it was important to bring you some added perspective on 2 of the biggest news stories of the spring the mainstream Corporate Media has barely given any kind of indepth coverage to at least until recently. Sort of the 1st of course has been the accusations of Sexual Assault misconduct made by former Us Senate Aide tara reid against the current democratic nominee for president former Vice President joe biden for months not only of the Mainstream Media of Major Political figures conveniently ignored reids claims but in many cases outright get to outright attacked her or marginalized her for making them in the 1st place but on monday of this week Ayana Pressley the massachusetts democrat are currently elected to the u. S. House of representatives penned a blog post on medium declaring quote we are in the throes of an election of the greatest consequence i reject the false choice that my party and our nominee cant address the allegations at hand and defeat the occupant of the white house the 2nd story that has not seen its fair share of proper coverage an indepth analysis has clearly been the rise of nationwide protests calling for rent strikes and mortgage relief started just before april and they now again considerable stream as we head into the middle of may and into june both these stories deserve time in the news media spotlight because both will have an effect on your foreseeable future one concerns your home the other your next potential potential president but since these stories deal with dark and uncomfortable truths about the American Experience most professional journalists and commentators only the lonely touch them with the most delicate delicate of kid gloves well joining us now are 2 folks who have no fear in speaking truth to power they are the cohost of by any means necessary and sputnik lady Jackie Luqman and sean block one thank you very much for coming on everybody. Thank you very much for having me lets start i want to start with terror reid and Joe Biden Jackie what jumps out to you the most in looking at the news medias coverage surrounding reids story especially in light of the b. 2 movement. What jumps out at me is the news medias complicity in pretty much just. Storying the need to movement right along with the Democratic Party to propel their presumptive nominee who is already a complete and absolute us are a mess from the beginning even with out the allegations from tower re which to me are completely credible and at the very least there they require a rigorous investigation just as rigorous as the allegations of Jim Cavanaugh got but the Democratic Party doesnt want to do that and they have gone so far as to even push journalists at the outlet outlets like the New York Times to change parts of the stories that they publish about that now theyre shaming chris and saying that he should be fired for even reporting on this issue and the media is complicit in covering it up in shaming terror reid and making her the problem and basically saying ok we need to but not if its about our guy joe biden and thats not thats next of just great and disgusting hypocrisy. And sean this ones for you do you think will be thing more Democratic Party members like a ana presently essentially break ranks and call out the hypocrisy theyre saying in their own Party Treatment of revalidation. Well i dont doubt that we may see some i mean i think the mainstream of democratic already are at a point where the allegations are so pitched now and theres so much energy and attention to them that they cant really ignore them so i dont look still that well see you know like books chorus kind of pushback or youre out of joe biden i do think we perhaps see some student what chris lee did but i i mean as an institution they basically came to forward to. To continue to ignore this state particularly since you know only recently personally deny these allegations so weve only recently heard from him personally about it and particularly as someone who has basically guaranteed that his Vice President ial pick one you know the kind of area specter of a pot receiver around at all i think we call for too strong for the establishment leadership to break thats going to be interesting to see how this moves on but i want to move over to the run strikes too and talk with you guys about the biggest question is are they working and will they continue into june will see them in april weve seen or may sean what are your thoughts on the run strikes and are they working. Well i mean the fact of the matter is you were talking earlier about how the country is opening back up to like the fact that the people just country dont have basic protections so whats happening is the economic burden or grown up by risk has been shifted to. Look or working people with code to the people who are now took you seriously workers if we dont constantly cold. We go or and muster the stacks are at risk so willing to put millions of people in danger of sickness and death but in terms of the rate strikes and efforts like cancer the red stuff were its a recognition that im actually see tens of millions of people be cast into unemployment and housing insecurity with people cant work they cant pay and so thats why were seeing organizing on a number of Different Levels i mean over 40000000 households are ranchers in this country and over a 3rd of people in this country could meet them. And so theres a coronavirus continues to intensify and the Economic Impact becomes greater and greater i think when we see you can organize and become stronger and stronger. And jackie. What do you feel is the biggest misunderstanding or misrepresentation of the strikes in the Media Coverage weve seen so far. Well the biggest misunderstanding is always what demands from the people that would alleviate the peoples crises and needs it is mis characterized as socialism as if you know socialism is a terrible thing you know we have countries like venezuela and cuba and to some extent in iran and in other countries even germany canada other countries that are providing monthly relief that their citizens need in the form of money so they can pay their rents or in the case of venezuela Nicolas Maduro is just saying ok glenn ford youre not going to get any rent for 6 months ill make sure the government will make sure that the landlords get paid their money were not going to force renters to pay rent for 6 months and were going to make sure that businesses remain solvent and people are able to eat because were going to provide for all of their resource needs during this shutdown and this is happening in other countries all across the world that are not necessarily quote unquote socialist countries like i said candidate canada and germany but they recognize the need to take care of the needs of their people in the midst of an emergency that no one. Really was well prepared for because they just ignored what was going on in china but the misunderstanding is that this is somehow unamerican but if our house to to sion the bill of rights says that this government is supposed to provide for the common defense and promote the general welfare then at what point is not making it work or with making sure that instances of this country cant pay their rent cant eat cant pay their bills while being addicted and wont have their services. The woman natural didnt ask how was that not a motive the general welfare how was that not providing a fence making the mans. Crazy the maoists and then. You know american marrying in. To destroy america is the very thing that is born to continue to keep the entire stay home protestors angry because they feel like they didnt have the choice but to make a choice as to what you know go back to work to get a paycheck or die i got to say i thank you spose so much for coming on ive been offered your viewpoints on 2 of these stories always a pleasure having you on once again by from by any means necessary im sputnik radio Jackie Luqman and sean bachman thank you so much for coming on the. Part of body that is our show for today remember when in this world were not told her love for the pledge tell you all i love you i havent i robot and i want me to keep on watching all those hawks never break. Through descriptions sound up to tell using even for the owners so how to choose just pet Food Industry is telling us what to feed our pets really more based on what they want to sell us than whats necessarily good for the pet turns out may not be as healthy as people believe we have animals that have you know diabetes in our stride they have auto immune disorders allergies we are actually creating these problems its a huge epidemic of problems all of them i believe can be linked to a very simple problem of diet and some dog owners so heartbreaking stories about their pets less treats the larger corporations are not very interesting. And introducing her disapproving the value of their food because theyre already making it to 1000000000. 00 on it and theres no reason to do that research. With good reason Public Discourse is focused on addressing and finally each containing the cobe in 1000. 00 pandemic now the focus is on devastated economies where the recession will be off into a depression with the recovery being used. Or in else. The world is driven by shaped by one person if there is. No day or thinks. We dare to ask.
