Going to be along in just a little bit with more on this developing story while on the subject of apologies heres an interesting story we need to bring you the New York Times is acknowledging that the people of bolivia all but had their election stolen from them the times now writes that socalled Election Fraud fraud in bolivia that was used as an excuse or a pretense to remove a democratically elected president that fraud accusation they say it was a lie. Think about what i just said so evil morellos was elected. Fairly it seems and democratically within less than 48 hours after he was elected the European Union the organization of american states and the United States state department declared his Election Fraudulent which fomented a coup causing the elected president to leave the country only to be replaced by a new president one that is more to the liking of washington and the oas and the e. U. So shouldnt surprise anyone that this type of foreign election meddling took place shouldnt surprise anybody that the socalled fraudulent election used to remove a president turns out now to be not a fraud. No it should not surprise you in fact it does not surprise you not if you regularly watch this newscast i want to take you back 4 months ago february 27th right here on this set when i reported what the New York Times is reporting now. His election was fraudulent they said well theres now a group of experts who have come forward theyve looked through all the details the Statistical Analysis and what they have concluded is the election was clean. That was me then so here i have now tell you whats going on with the New York Times because now 4 months later the New York Times is admitting that the socalled Election Fraud conclusion was flawed thats the word they use in their article but thats not where they leave the story interestingly enough then in what appears like a case of double speak the New York Times is writing that it doesnt mean that the election in bolivia was free and fair. And they cite a source who says quote there was fraud we just dont know how much but which is it i mean if youll pardon me for the journalistic comparison here its kind of like saying that look theres no proof that i rick sanchez beat my wife but theres evidence somewhere they just dont know how much. By the way by that standard let me also ask this question what election anywhere in the world including ours is perfectly fair and without criticism and one more question. What happens now i mean does that guy the elected official president evo morales does he get his office back and he was seemingly according to the New York Times cheated out of. This is the news with rick sanchez again where we cover a story you will simply not see anywhere on c. N. N. Or on fox or on the b. B. C. Or on n. B. C. Because we believe its time to do news again. Asking the morrow if evo morales as election was not fraudulent why is it he the president should a show about cops where a death occurred be canceled pulled and despite the sino us friction is wow way a fixture that simply is not going to go away. All right lets go ahead and again with the latest out of bolivia this is a country where like so many others before it it had foreign meddling in its election its quite clear today that that happened if you didnt believe it before you Better Believe it now and if you happen to have a lot of american roots as i do right then you would probably know that this has been going d on now in this in that part of the world latin america for more than a century and apparently its still going on here with more on this bolivia story is r t correspondent john hardy. In december 2019 the New York Times published a story titled Election Fraud aided evo morales International Panel concludes with a subhead about the charges of voting fraud that led to protests and the exile of bolivian president evo morales being confirmed in a final report by the washington d. C. Based think tank the organization of american states or oas for short the oas report concluded that bolivias election was marred by widespread deliberate fraud well fast forward to june 7th and a long piece in the times sunday edition last week about a bitter election accusations of fraud and now 2nd thoughts about those accusations oh boy the times writes that a new study by independent researchers quote using data obtained by the New York Times from the bolivian electoral authorities has found the oas is Statistical Analysis was itself flawed why because it relied on incorrect data and inappropriate statistical techniques. The Election Fraud allegations led to violent protests in bolivia and charges against morale is terrorism and sedition braless fled bolivia to mexico city on nov 10th and was granted political asylum replacing him as interim president was janine on yes. Alleges conservative of european descent backed by the United States stands as a contrast to morale a socialist party and Indigenous Roots u. S. Officials and some academics quickly supported the oas his findings and morality his ouster in fact u. S. Secretary of state mike pompei a tweeted back in november quote fully support the findings of the oas official report recommending new elections in bolivia to ensure a truly democratic process representative of the peoples will the credibility of the electoral system must be restored its noted that there was likely some Election Fraud in bolivia so how much and where remains unclear the oas report was done quickly so its likely not all the election data was thoroughly analyzed further some argue that the medias akko chamber added to the overall contention and confusion in a feb 27th that in the Washington Post to noted mit researchers disputed the oas report saying vitter Research Found no reason to suspect fraud writing that quote the media has largely reported the allegations of fraud as fact and of a morale is meanwhile is now in argentina where he was granted Refugee Status and continues to rail against what he calls it with the us backed coup that drove him from office 7 months later there are still no elected government and no official new election date for the news with Rick Sanchez John hardy. Joining us now r. J. Producer of latin america expert holds a ph d. On the subject and reka rivera thanks america for joining us. Here you have a guy who was elected who is not the president and it turns out that the reason we used. There was wrong graduate i mean is he going to get it is he going to get his job back thats a complicated question and im going to give you a complicated answer no. No hes not going to get his word if. Theyre not going to give him his job. Back. In argentina theyve been pushing the elections back back back back to be in december march may now theyre saying september this will be a caretaker government that held the held the reins for 3 months and theyve been holding on to it for this long this reminds me of this rule in journalism that we all study when we go to Journalism School that its not correct to do a correction too long after word because it has no value if i put today in the works and shows harold or the r. T. Harold that Enrique Rivera is a wife beater back on that subject and then i never touch it again and its out there for 4 months people are hearing and reading that youre a wife beater and then somehow 4 months later i say oh by the way hes not a wife beater youve done the damage the damage is done the people lost their president they lost their election they lost their election the damage is insured mountable almost to my crazy no youre not crazy youre absolutely right and i mean we need to look at this as a crime this was a terrible terrible crime we put together a slide that kind of indicates how radical a change has been made so. The bolivian people whos a staunch opponent to us interventionism and who runs a mixed economy has benefited by lifting a lot of people out of poverty lets look at Foreign Policy they allowed us aid back into the country that have been banned in 2013 for funding the opposition funneling millions of dollars to them establish relations with israel called embassies in. Recognized as president this all falls in line with the u. S. And what they term a countrys policies upside down ultimately upside down lets go to the economic stuff that they they that theyve changed so weve talked a lot about lithium and lithium production and how important this was in the role that this may have played in the coup right so the bolivian government ran state spots they ran. Enterprises related to with lithium these production processes have halted completely and the government has called for International Investment like i said this is a crime no this is this this country has been completely looted and and its really unfortunate well see in september if theyre allowed to have free and Fair Elections like they had last time luis who is a member of morales his party is leading all the polls lets see if they let him win you know its funny how when i turn on the television here in the United States and i turn on whatever and b. C. In particular all i hear is about no one has the right to meddle in another countrys election especially when they try to get in there with like with social media and tweets and. Charles weve done this we do it all the time this is where is this story and im the defender of morale is i mean i think its a little bit of a lefty you know im not but they elected him thats their guy not mine what the hell business is it of ours weve got to stop doing this it seems coming up again but it just doesnt seem right no its not right and were at a time where the New York Times is issuing a policy edisons of good editors are getting fired left and right. We should see the same thing with international which thats a good thats a good point thats a good point thanks so much and really great point. Its great coverage im glad we did that this is the news a very sad shows on youre watching our special coverage we will be right back. Something for you. Oh you. An ocean of stories even the news. Can overwhelm you. Your way i know you want to. Bring you the bad. Play. Your questions birth new question. Number. And list as the same and bring all in so just death. If dr. In question. Im a journalist its all i know being a truth teller people say i make among come from good news is like a jackhammer good drill down to find the truth news with rick sanchez because its time to do news again and question more. I like it when the hosts ask a question for the guests and then actually listens to the guests answer and then react to that thats a folks Dennis Miller here ive got a new show. Ok welcome back rick sanchez here now to another example of a suspect saying he cant breathe coming to a Police Arrested happened in austin texas this time were a motorist failed to stop when a Police Officer tried to pull him over warning you might find this somewhat disturbing but here it is this is the video. Shows body cam that youre looking at shows him holding the suspect down who later died after announcing. He tells the Police Officer i have a heart condition and i cant breathe and then he perishes so obviously theres a controversy. Theres a criminal case but heres why im doing this story this story is making headlines beyond just what you saw there beyond this incident itself it turns out that the Police Officer who was involved in the suspects death was being filmed while he was doing it he was being filmed for a Television Show thats called live p. D. Since then the show has been taken off the air and so has another popular almost another popular iconic show its called cops sure youve heard of that one. Are those shows too exploitive theres so much to talk about in this case including the fact by the way that the video that was shot apparently theyre not going to turn it in they say they may have deleted it joining us know Award Winning journalist Ruben Navarrette and desi robinson who is the director of the Media Program of a Media Program at Columbia University and my thanks to both of you does he want truong with a show like this i believe its called live p. D. Or cops for that matter doing this type of thing. Well 1st hey rick its good to be on and i think the question is whats what is it wrong with a show like this i think its important to understand that there is a fair amount of Media Literacy that needs to happen in situations its and when we think of Reality Television its really important to understand that it is it reality. Yeah and so these are really crested narratives that do nothing more than foment stereotypes and sort of the basis understanding of who we think marginalized people are and so these shows are harmful. For several reasons but but largely it is because it continues to glorify people who continue to do incredible amounts of harm in marginalized communities but ruben let me bring you in here folks on the other side would say look its a business its a Television Show we put a camera on cops they go out there they arrest people theyre block theyre white theyre drunk theyre making fools of themselves we put all d. V. We make a lot of money whats wrong with that its the american way baby. Right they also say that shows are the are not the areas you showed you not car people who behave badly when theyre pulled over by police theyre already behaving badly thats why they were pulled over by police. There is something to be said the Police Officers are behaving badly on the show and thats the problem that they did a lot of the worst thing about the showed the cause of the camera more likely paid to be harder on a crack because it makes for Good Television they want to call back next week for another segment thats a problem and thats why the shows are dangerous because they encourage the Police Officers to go overboard and perhaps up quite the camera in ways they should not thats a great point speaking of that in this particular case the parents of the suspects say my son was killed by a car pool was acting for a camera he was trying to be a tough guy because of that should that videotape now be turned over to the police because apparently then abrams of live t. V. Is saying no desi im not going to turn them in fact hes saying they may have deleted it. Well i think thats absolutely ridiculous its obviously part information thats part of an investigation but i think what what what is. Is were funny use analogies of cameron playing to the camera we need to really pull that lens back because these shows also further this idea that we have good cops and that we have awful terrible people in our society that need to be policed and so what it doesnt do is it doesnt include in any part of this narrative that has been crafted the systemic failures that put people in these positions in the 1st place and so in force soul we going to look at the most marginalized people doing the most horrendous things in our society and were not going to examine what puts them there in the 1st place and then were. Just being entertained by the by the flaws of our society and so it does nothing to examine the systemic failures that put people in marginalized positions in the 1st place you know the words theyre going out there. The bias right ruben that what does hes saying is that the agreement. On the going out there youre right and hes right but theyre not providing the backstory in the context for how these situations come to be thats a lot to ask of a t. V. Segment like the one were doing now a column that i am i right or even a Research Paper that he might write its a lot to ask these t. V. Shows that they go back and show with the entire context as to how we end up in this situation they are exploiting Human Behavior and im causing that behavior but theyre exploiting but im very troubled much more troubled by the fact that this evidence has been destroyed i dont buy it this was an accidental you know move by the t. V. Stations at all i think the producers who run the show need to have a Good Relationship with a Police Officer to help and Police Departments and heat and or to go forward with this show and i think this was destroyed on purpose because they knew very well rick when they went home that night they knew what they had done and they knew what was on camera and they knew this would come back if i thought yeah i could see you saying we generally destroy everything every 34 months or whatever but when you know that someone died during that incident and you have it on tape and you dont destroy that that seems negligent call me crazy but that seems negligent that he thinks and ruben thanks great conversation important conversation all right like it or not chinas tech giant weiwei is going to play a role the development of americas 5 g. Network this according to a study that points to critical telecom pattons owned by the company now remember this is exactly what the white house has been fighting with vim and vigor and bravado heres our tease alex model of it. Despite the trumpet ministrations worldwide effort to shut while away huawei is something thats very dangerous the company has a foothold in the 5 g. Game and america can do little about it according to a study conducted by 2 Research Firms more than 80 percent of inventions that are closely connected to 5 g. Standards are owned by 6 companies and one way is one of them. In fact while way owns more patents than anyone when it comes to the next generation of super fast interconnected Wireless Networks deep exile the cofounder and director of the Research Company grey b says that means when it comes to countries like the us even if they hire some other company to build the 5 g. Infrastructure they still have to pay the Chinese Company because of the intellectual contribution to develop the technology simply put if the u. S. Wants to participate in the next generation of Wireless Networks it will be paying while way directly or indirectly as 5 no one wants to be left behind the revolutionary tech promises more than just speed with developments in such areas as autonomy cars robotics connected homes Virtual Reality and Artificial Intelligence as a world leader the us has made it clear its in on the tech but it wants to keep a wall way out alleging that the China Based Company is a Security Threat huawei has repeatedly said nations who choose to use their technology have nothing to be concerned about i said and that the trumpet ministrations accusations are unfounded and harmful not only to the companys head of but to progress in general and its relentless pursuit to tighten its stranglehold on our company the Us Government has decided to proceed and ignored completely the concerns expressed by Many Companies and industry associations. This action this decision is both arbitrary apprenticeships and threatens to undermine the entire Industry Worldwide as a part of the trumpet ministrations efforts against wall way secretary of state mike pompei o recently said European Countries need to get it out of their system they need to use western technologies the problem is even many critical western Telecom Technologies are tied to a wall way patent somewhere along the way. While networks rely on industry standards across the board to ensure that devices Work Together and communicate with each other on a global level that means cooperation the newest generation of Wireless Technology sees no borders and just like the Telecom Companies in that realm like it or not nations will also have to Work Together to get the most out of 5 g. For use with rick sanchez im alex my love it. So were back in the world of sports now with steve christakis talking about we were talking earlier on have you watched on boom bust i was on and we were talking about corporations suddenly trying to make good singing kumbaya giving money to charities and talking about how good they are and how concerned they are about you know oppression in the United States especially where a show oppression well guess who is doing the same thing now yes in the world of sports i guess all of them but were going to start with starting with p. G. A. Tour theyre officially back today now after 3 months of being off and they started off this morning in Fort Worth Texas at the Charles Schwab challenge with a moment of silence at 8 46 am all the players about their heads in a moment of silence to recognize george floyd and that is for significant too because thats the amount of time the ex cop who murdered george floyd was on his neck for with his knee so they did that a 46. 00 am without any players names on the t. On the sheet during that time and they just wanted to pay a tribute to there was i dont know if its Phil Mickelson there yeah and yes is tiger tiger. Is that tiger look sometime going to use and you know youre right thats not tiger but it was it was it was quite a moment advantage especially in golf as we saw yesterday with nascar removing the Confederate Flag from their events predominantly white sport golf has traditionally been very heavily white and heavily it has a historic racist undertone to the court to theyve come a long way but its still in the past they were very discriminatory against africanamericans the question becomes in a case like this and. When you and i have been tussling and were weve all tussle with this you know is it enough to say you care. Because its that doesnt necessarily mean you care right attribute is nice its a good gesture but it doesnt necessarily mean theres going to be action so its time will tell like with the n. F. L. Of course they said a lot of words and were going to wait and i guess what they do and again as i said with brett when we were doing boom bust this is from top down it was like my boss telling me i have to do something right and im going to do it whether i like it or not because i want to get a paycheck exactly thats it doesnt mean that i really believe it right its eliminated and they made and its already made believe it im not going to you know disparage these guys course it but the question remains and of course they are everybody is worried about their bottom line as well theres money involved in these sports big money and also are they doing it just because of their bottom line they dont want but you said i would tell the audience to tell the audience because you know the numbers rather than i do how much more how much of the money of these athletes is an endorsement the big name oh yeah as opposed to the what they make as a sound oh i mean you know you could have a 100000000 dollars in the door spence and then 10000000 in your contract so i mean they all that and they dont want to let me buy their brand that make you buy what they make playing golf completely so i guess we cant afford not to tell right to say the right thing even if you know loose it just saying i mean theres a story behind every youre right youre right all right go on and now the next another significant moment was with the n. F. L. Owner previous owner of the Carolina PanthersJerry Richardson he had a statue removed out from in front of the stadium yesterday and now he had been accused in the past before he had to sell his team and 28 team to david tepper he had been accused of Sexual Misconduct and using a racial slur against at least one africanamerican scout in the past they settled out of court a nondisclosure agreement there were no details but they were they just got rid of it just like the deal with all the confederate statues they said this is got to get out of here and they said its never coming back what are we going to do with all the statues are going to be a giant collection of statute on the museum somewhere i mean explain what that person did you know its. 5. 00 come and get it. Thats our new member of the stays there and stay connected. With the girls that you decide. If and seriously if they can do it big.

Others financials well i dont buy any i posit features. Think of the 5. As a massive appliance of the future track out watch guys. For years i had treated patients with heroin addiction with high dose methadone which is the appropriate treatment and so. I was thinking well i see how well that works for all these people and they dont tend to overdose on it or have a lot of side effects or have any problems so why wouldnt that be fine for pain patients i do recall individual young man who had a rough go early in life. Without paulism was in alcohol recovery a number of back surgeries and i was in the middle of a tapering course switched him over to methadone for his other drug to ease his taper and use
