Earlier this spring will not be in the next bill and then mcconnell said that republicans are going to quote clean up the democrats crazy policy that is paying people more to remain unemployed than they would earn if they went back to work in other words promising that the Unemployment Benefits keeping millions upon millions upon millions of u. S. Citizens afloat during these times of crisis will be no more by the end of july essentially forcing you back into the low paying workforce to face the distinct possibility of death by cove it breather you and your loved ones thank you mitch but fear not because mitch did reveal that he has some heart left in that in that in that husky calls a body his heart is just not very you according to Common Dreams on that same phone call mcconnell continued advocating aggressively for the inclusion of corporate liability per. Texans in the next stimulus package in order to quote shield corporations from legal responsibility for workers who contract code 19 while on the job so basically the plan is to financially starve you in the back into your low paying jobs of adventure and servitude but if you can then get sick and die from being forced back to work you cannot legally hold the company you work for accountable financially or legally or you or your family members well being. Welcome my friends to the real new world order of the United Corporations of america and their boot licking political sycophants Like Senate Majority leader Mitch Mcconnell so lets start watching the hawks. On a cd. Player so lets see this is joyce state. Great city this least systemic deception is show which. Brings up the old. Welcome on watching the hawks argument i robot and im a me so lots of true colors being shown this week we want to take away your unemployment sends you back into work and you have no d Legal Recourse if you get sick just work work work and if you die well you know so be it. Out i want to say that obviously aggravated by it but im not necessarily surprised that it happened the pressurization here is that a lot of individuals who will be faced with going back to work and not having any recourse are also individuals who dont have sick days and whose offices dont provide them any type of Health Insurance benefits so were talking about your you know your Restaurant Owners or many of those that are closed bar where thinking about a lot of the a lot of the barber shops and things like that these are typically lower wage workers anyway and now theyre going to be thrust into a system where theres really no way out for them no there isnt because if you cut those Unemployment Benefits benefits were taking away someones docking someones pay like 50. 00 or 75 percent there once you take that away and thats ridiculous to me its like in a time of crisis we should be helping the American People we should be trying to set up you know on countries around the world should be doing this and many are you know ive always said 2 to 3000 dollars a month for coverage on health care you know plus a freeze on rent and mortgage and then. Like that and people dont want to believe it thats possible well guess what most European Countries are able to do that most other countries around the world are able to do that for their citizens were like the last when it comes to actually providing any financial help during this crisis for the common folks for america to have always may consider the nation to follow and this is one of those issues of many but definitely where we continue to fall behind and i say that because youre right the majority of the belle of the world has bigger out a way not only to work through this crisis where their citizens are getting monthly monthly stipend their citizens are getting Housing Assistance a lot of things are happening to be able to kind of ease the blow 19 america is basically telling its workers bigger and out we need her tales to get back to the office but you know whos not whos whos definitely not for you when the blow of covert money apparently the billionaire in a new analysis released by americans for tax paranoia sam the institute for policy studies of all places titled its called tale of 2 strikes is billionaires again as workers feel pandemic game and they found that between march 18th and march and may 19th the number of u. S. Citizens piling for unemployment increased about 38600000 over the same 2 months the wealth of the United States billionaires has surged 4434000000000. 00 an increase of teen per cent thats a massive number i mean we even recently found out was that the kanye became a billionaire during the corona crisis and he wanted to remind you of just how many billions he had once one magazine reported incorrectly off by 3000000000. 00 the most interesting part about this is that there are always people who are going to make money off a crisis right now were seeing that the billionaire class has taken off it doesnt matter whats happening with the crushing of the middle class the way deep poverty that were seeing across this country and the children and families that are living in it the billionaire class seems to always sit still and keep going even amidst one of the most disastrous things that needs to. And weve seen years in this country we saw david geffen right at the start of the lockdown of the state home orders to do that wonderful little instagram shot from his big go in the middle of the ocean i mean when they ask us like to have sympathy for them its hard to its hard to but lets and you know the next time you see like the Walton Family or bays. Hes been the torrijos lately which he got about a 48 percent rise in his wealth during the last 2 months theyre always out there tweeting like oh we need freedom and we need to open up the economy and all this well yeah you guys are suffering but you guys you know why you want the economy i mean the theyre making so much money its insane that they then would want to feed people to the to the grill you know feed people to the meat where again that is covert 19 the other interesting thing to note the corporate europe observatory is now reporting that corporations are just fighting to put you back to work theyre also now looking at being able to sue governments around the world for any lock down orders or any covert 19 response that kept them from getting profits how was that to see i find that aspect completely enraging because there are protections for the corporations and we see those being created almost on a daily basis and theyre not going to go under theyre not going to have any theyre not going to take any real blows but for the workers themselves if you are to go back and you are to fall ill and asked to go with kobe 1000 it does not matter there is nothing that you can do not only to protect yourself but also in terms of a recourse should a business open before they have before they have all the steps in place to open safely its crazy i mean the corporations are using this kind of little known system that goes by the acronym. Its investor state dispute settlement and its when you have basically trade agreements between Different Countries the corporations get this backdoor loophole the observatory ports the quote in a written alerts and webinars law firms are pointing their multinational clients to investment agreements vast protections for Foreign Investors as a tool to seek relief and or compensation for any losses resulting from these state measures this is. Absolutely disgusting and i hope that we dont see corporations suing because governments were trying to keep their population safe. All right everybody after seeing their season and playoffs cut short things to cope with 19 many and be a fans have had to turn to n. B. A. 2 k videogame you tubers like click productions to keep them virtually entertained but that doesnt mean that there isnt any n. B. A. News worth covering in fact probably pegs to the virus rooting the destruction of the playoffs in the finals journalists have been able to uncover this recent gem regarding n. B. A. And or n. B. A. Owner tom gotos whose portfolio not only includes the Detroit Pistons but also apparently makes significant money get this off the Prison Industrial Complex joining us now with the stories are to america sports producer Regina Regina thank you as always there when our bad news every time i come were like well you know whats going wrong in the sports world today because i feel bad talking about this because its not like michigan and detroit hasnt had enough problems in recent days lets add to it. Detroit prisons or in some gores is a billionaire who owns a sports team so you know normally nothing else really matters were girls gets his money from a Company Called was it secure technologies many of these guys and many of those incarcerated or after you know security acknowledges provides a phone service to Something Like 3400 person get wrecked about 1200000 inmates have access to this so gore is the guy you know hes the best he is worth about 5700000000. 00 and he is part of that class to talk about that dont have to worry about getting thick because all tests all the time so he makes his money through Platinum Equity bad for the Company Portfolio and securest technology is this under that umbrella and its actually one of the biggest money makers for him so what happens is in prisons prisoners do make a wage is not a livable wage by any stretch of the imagination and so when they make a phone call using carrots technologies. They are charging exorbitant fee upward sometimes of 20000000. 00 sorry see me 20. 00 or 1015 minute phone call theyre not making that kind of money in prison so that other you get his money hes been touted as a wonderful guy by bloomberg but you know maybe take that with a grain of salt but hes been touted as helping the city of detroit recover hes a pioneer for calling capron it of all people but the hope obviously is hes trying to promote im this good guy image gave money off of africanamericans hispanics in prison. Which is the one of the things that happen it is fighting against so how can you be in favor of someone like this who makes money off of the suffering and sometimes false imprisonment of africanamericans hispanics and then you know say oh i totally support this guy im behind his reasoning its its illogical it is pretty logical absolutely i like that you point those things out because it shows that you know there are 2 sides of the coin that is of course and at this point i dont think that hes somebody who can stand by calling kaepernick or anyone who is fighting against criminal Justice Reform when hes someone whos profiting off of it so that in he is also profiting beyond just the jail system in the prison system in terms of the phone calls he has been to his company has been awarded nearly 800000000 in contracts from customs and Border Patrol so hes actually making what exactly and thats the shocking part is that this is a sports owner we like i mean obvious for its owners they have make their money from other places just in the sports and we all know that its a common factor but when you look and you pull away that veil and you pull away that shield as the time with those sports now allows us to do youre seeing these guys arent as great you know you have mark cuban as Dallas Mavericks he is a rare example im sure he has some not great things in his past as well but hes a great example of how to be a bennett a champion for not only his team but also his work on those people paying his workers during this furlough during the time there is no sports is a great thing i dont think morris is doing that start and now if he was hes going with money of that he was a blood money is not blood money but it is youre getting that money off the backs of people who are suffering and as a sports owner you. I want to maybe take a step back look a lot of people on my team in the n. B. A. Owner are black i am now getting money not only from prisons where there is a lot of effort here in population im also getting it from customs and Border Patrol which has been questionable lately for what they do with Illegal Immigrants and its almost time set back if youre a shareholder in a sports team do you want to look and i want to be associated with this they were going to layers to me i was once a blood money because were looking at whats happening in the prisons there are a lot of people dying and being mistreated every day and we know that those who have been taken into custody at customs and Border Patrol also are dying we have those numbers so i would definitely say that do you think that government Organizations Team owner should be able to have this type of relationship with a government organizations where they are profiting significantly off of our taxpayer dollars and government institutions thats a good question too because theyre also the ones who go to the government and say please build a store stadiums all the l. A. Lakers actually get some that protection money from the government. They give it back but they still got it bad part of the problem and youre seeing sports organizations like this is a tough time for everybody we understand were all suffering financially but to be able to be like you know i mean over the government for help here not you and then have owners who preach i am a champion of my people you know im champions of our fans of our players some of who are hispanic africanamerican nonwhite players and you get money from government that pretty much dont align with what youre preaching is hypocrisy and they should be taken to task for it well i mean hopefully he does overly overly he sees the error and you know when you see the news reports like this i mean this is pretty yahoo and other major publications and news like hopefully you will see that in the pushback against that from the community if that happens and the n. F. L. Players coalition oh you had this not forget about that too yeah i forgot about the n. F. L. Players but we have to get absorbed in the time we were given the n. F. L. Next we know theyre bad news for next to no n. F. L. Is not doing good either but. I want to thank you so much for jim always a pleasure having you on thank you so much thank you. All right as we go to break remember that you can also start watching the ox on demand or the brand new portable t. V. Ad which is available now on all platforms and coming up we are joined by author d. Walk ins to discuss his latest piece on highlighting the life and times of a very interesting to say the least corrupt cop in baltimore you do not want to miss this conversation stay tuned to watching the hawks. Tough and and another one of the highest in my town the way the both of us who. Barely could still move to get out of closing this way got to dog its really hard not to think of the mother disappeared this woman the 1 oclock that hour and i dont think its still up and if. This is the only thing that we do is music because everybody fights his way. To. The floor you can move the food without a visible facility and im. Going to give it a box with a helmet on the. What i think is this is the fund that is what comes into. Your money just like to raise your children you know when that should. Do. You straight experience a corner in the way its an experience we have no experience of cornell and sing about what you have to. Baltimore maryland is known for its diversity both an n. F. L. Team and produces one of the best t. V. Series a modern history the wire. Baltimore is also home to americas world renowned Johns Hopkins hospital but despite having many great traits the city has been plagued by scandal drugs and violence the Police Relationship with the black community is fractured at best gun violence has overtaken much of the city and the black and blue divide couldnt be greater Common Ground or shared experience arent typically things that come to mind when you think of black kids growing up in the hood and the white kids who grew up to police them but dig deeper in a much anticipated new article 2 men from baltimores rough and tumble east side one a young black man and the other a white cop crossed paths in an interesting way in his latest piece only a mile and a big world separated us author of the walk ins outlines his baltimore experience juxtaposed with that of discrete Baltimore Police officer danny. Joining us now is author and editor at large salon dot com. Welcome. Why dont we thank you for having me there youre always a pleasure to. So your article delves into some of the gritty its parts of your life and upbringing in baltimore it paints a picture of life at the center of the world drugs what that environment was like for you and how you view how you were viewed by the outside world and you just suppose this with her soul who grew up not too far away but had what you described as a system that traditionally rewards mediocre whiteness yet he had a tragic downfall where you excelled what do you attribute this to. The system you know everything that had it against me he kind of the head on for him soul you know so my son my son a fair street one side of history could argue over you can go to jail for. Up in that on the street and on his side. If he was going to jail or if you got if you got a lot that a lot of times people go to prison. Discipline you where you have a clean record and then when they do you can be a lot guys like me. You know its interesting because because i think just so people understand is what kind of a guy was her soul was a colleague what was he charged with what was he convicted of like who was this guy. So as crazy because talking to his family and talking to his friends i think that he was a regular Police Officer type of Police Officer who wouldnt knock a couple of people off and before people want to streets maybe studio 50. 00 maybe to 100. 00 outlets but it wasnt Something Like that with these guys probably going to trace task force and then he started working in a way teaches that you are. Actually still real money if you will from a knock you over that in 50 type weve got a guy who was looking 4101520000 i was so easy like a hes showing directed to your need to be a part of a criminal enterprise they hid behind a bad to use the bass to go out and commit crimes in the christening of up to the backlash. Aftermath of all this is a lot of people said oh this is that it was bad it was and as i always say if its a few bad apples you know where all these great cops out here scene with their friends are doing and i said anything to the feds that then you know theres like i decided to go through great pain is a scriber so a former Baltimore Police officer turned convicted felon you humanized him in many ways in the our you know in the piece you also outlined the abuses police regular pose theyre threatening behavior as you mentioned they are lawful searches at one point you mention a cop telling you that you were nothing nothing how did the other system that was personal how did this experience has shaped the lens with which you saw and in choosing to write this article and what you saw or sort through. You know screens even if you accept because i could not write this article early in my career oh god now though ive been around enough i had a lot of conversations with officers billions for thai officers i got a chance to really look at my old life evolved journey through the lens of a guy you know i just went down i go you know im out and stuff so looking back at it i think that. Early in my career what i wrote about a Police Officer is i didnt even think about the human side because they were human they were human because of how to introduce me and are friends now that im older and i have more experience as i have the room has. To say to the way things happen to meet their force needs to make bad decisions and do bad things its kind of similar to saying things that happen today force them to make bad decisions or do bad things its like ive gotten a luxury of being a scholar of these different books and traveling to all these different places and studied Different Things maybe if and im not im not send he gets a pass for what he did because i still feel like its a terrible person but maybe academics. If he was to be able to have some of the experiences that ive had it then maybe the way he put their black the way he looks at black people would be different the way to look at is joe i mean himself in the context of what hes actually here today will be different and you probably want to be in general know. Andy ive read this piece now probably 3 times and i think why reveal a new its amazing quite revealing and you didnt you werent speaking for like that out of out of corners you dug deep speaking about your own experience of participation in the drug game what was your motivation for including that part. Because i think as a narrator it gives it gives me more credibility to being to talk about you know im not perfect im not a perfect person i can sit on my perch you know because i sit back and i work with these young people and i do just really good work i cant sit back and act like it ive never done the wrong things so people need to know what i overcame well hes made mistakes and he realized the error in his ways and he works really hard to change that and. The difference between being a person is that he still hes nice hes a gentleman right now still writing letters to the local newspaper the Baltimore Sun some of them that hes innocent even though the mountains and mountains of evidence a lot of which are south are hes guilty and thats just a difference of people need to know what i was coming from and. So he can really understand why im qualified to make these are you know we get a little bit of time what poor person was arrested the entire family based on a young you tube video he used his power to attack the black community unlike most cops he actually didnt get away with it as we mentioned he was convicted and sent to prison for schemes to rob people and cut drug deals and other crimes was this a level for Police Accountability was there any accountability that came away from from his arrest and incarceration. Absolutely at the for the very bottom of the Consent Decree so this is like the big huge federal Police Reform that you put into cities to be to change to bring about change and herschel actually join you kind of the countrys taskforce where he learned how to steal money and over time in a more effective while we were on the Consent Decree so they absolutely positively marked nothing. While. He did this in reform. One glad that you pointed that out because a lot of people assume that once somebody gets arrested if you can get to that point where there is a conviction when there are you know crooked cops out there that that is something we should hang our hats on because that is a move towards accountability i like that you pointed out that there are still some significant issues associated with that as well. What do you feel is that theyre going to be moving forward to where does all this go forward. As it as it stands right now and theres no way for it to go forward because the same system is continuing to eat a self we have the same leadership speak and use the same one he would see still saying things like oh wow cops are mostly good theres bad apples and no you know because the great Comedian Chris Rock if you were going to the airport and he said most of the pilots a good descent of bad apples that cant really when. You know some jobs you cant have bad apples and people are really and then i would approach in the truth and end up thinking about the chief and the truth is the department is the best and needs to be. The change and until you dig up the roots of those problems youre going to continue to see the same thing and that is that is a lot of our ive already got breath already principal reason i was from is out and already thats not just baltimore that cities across the United States of america thank you so much for the good work you do d. Its very important people learn these things always a pleasure sir. Thank you you guys have a blast all right everybody that is our show for you today remember when in this world we are not told that we are loved enough so i tell you all i love you are relevant and im amazed keep on watching those hawks never great day and night everybody. Call. It the good. News if you shave says you do said you can only pull the wool over our back in school. Education on. The b. B. C. In all these shows all the stuff but dont take care of the sides fake stick figure because if you put stinky in the body we know its. A pig a lot more we see if we more. Or less dipped out your life. With the politically good news of the bank leading the police in the uk and i know the answer is i can eat shit shit shit shit put up a little. Extra. And i need another one of the highest in my town sway or both the food. Bank itself more to see about. Closing this way got set up for hard luck the thing. I dont have to decide this you know but the work of a coward and im not going to start then if. This is the only thing that we do is music because everybody fights in his own way. The floor you can talk the 50 miles out of this will persuade you that you have all of the ability to put the Death Penalty on the. Books but i think is this is the found that is a constant thank. You. You notice in your restaurant that they blow up patrons are consuming anything the solution according to the policy makers would be to make them blow up consumers bigger like inject more you know helium or oxygen instead blow up and that will somehow improve the situation theyre not taking into consideration of their dead still lifeless that they can consume just like the moneys velocity number shows us that for now a couple of decades has been dying and recently the money velocity is pretty much. Hello and welcome to redact its night v. I. P.
