If. Youre more likely to walk free if youre rich and guilty. Or else. Youve got 2 eyes and ears in one now. So you should be seen here and a whole lot more than youre saying if you dont take that advice easy going to dig yourself all. Agreeing. With spurs and accusations were buzzing like a murder or not snacking on the honey bee this week here in washington d. C. Afternoons of yet another scandal involving the brand name in chief u. S. President donald trump yes the scandal was revealed to us all late tuesday apparently and my friends what a scandal it is the New York Times reporting that the Justice Department has been investigating whether intermediaries for a federal convict offered white house officials a bribe in exchange for a pardon or commutation from President Trump yeah. That is juicy the possibility that a sitting u. S. President or at least some members of his team may be in the business of taking cold hard cash in exchange for Services Rendered in this case handing out a president ial pardon naturally the president respond to the news with a resounding fake news tweeting quote pardon investigation is news and while rumors of trading pardons for cash payoff this is actually actually rather old news here in the belly of the beast especially out here for those good folks at fox news that doesnt make it any less egregious but lets keep it 100. 00 shall we pay for play is become part of the very bedrock the very bedrock of washington politics since well probably the signing of the declaration of independence from cheney and halliburton to 989 keating 5 to Warren Hardings teapot dome scandal back and maintain 21 the American People have had a front row seat to some of the biggest political swindles of all time and this isnt letting up anytime soon because frankly the lobbyists nod and wink along with a significant Campaign Contribution be a 3rd Party Fundraiser to the candidate or party has become the go to and tragically legal form of bribery that fuels this Nations Capital just ask the inaugural committee for president elect joe biden which is coming under fire for raising millions in corporate sponsored cash for what will most likely be a virtual inauguration thanks to cope with 19 that will cost nothing and yet they wonder why 80 percent of americans both republican and democrat do not trust the federal government to do the right thing always or even most of the time according to pew research and that my friends is why we are always watching the homes. Was going on a city street. There are so. This is joyce state. Graves see this least systemic deception is show which. So. Welcome or wonder watching the hearts. And im of the boy image of the i love i love it when news organizations fall over themselves to say oh my gosh look at this crazy crazy crime that were seeing that this accusation of bribery and all that one like lets be honest washington is based on bribery and i like the historical reference you opened with because weve seen it time and time again in elections in these administrations some obviously got more Media Attention than others but i think that because of the character and the type of man donald trump presents himself theres a lot more media click bait associated with anything he does in addition to the fact that hes still doing all of this mean while not fully accepting the results of the most recent election anyway you know when youve got rumors going that hes going to just pardon the whole family before they leave office to keep mall safe from the kind of the nixon ask right you know pardon you know but its interesting but when you when you look at i think the the real juice here in washington this is this is a democrat problem and republican problem and thats the legalized bribery which is basically bribery its just its legal i mean look at the look at the inaugurated inaugural committee where theyre taking money by putting up some money they will allow corporate donations of up to 1000000. 00 donations from corporations and from individuals up to 500000. 00 just upon the inauguration this is this is a lobbyist and cooperate industry and they feel like when youre in elected official no matter what side youre on there is a dual note to the fact that obviously they are different corporations they give you cash with they expect it with the expectation that you know when things come across your table that have to do with their industry that you will turn a blind eye or that you wont you know press the. Very hard because hey i helps you and these are the same industries that you have in many cases equally to both sides of the aisle because they never really know which way the coin is going to flip and they were make sure theyre covered in their beds i mean it what makes this really interesting with the with the inaugural committee kind of saying hey were going to take these big time donations from is is a its its not new trump actually broke the record i think some 170000000 worth of corporate financing there obama did it in the 2nd term so thats not new but whats interesting is bidens inaugural committee has barred fossil fuel companies and their executives impacts from donating to the inaugural committee and as a journalist david damn for the american prospect if theres a problem with those particular firms giving money why isnt there a problem with the other ones that also rely on the actions of government you can kind of havent both ways and say well this one is bad but you know what comcast or whoever oh you know we wont know until about 9 and they would later in life debate and conversation about bidens role with fossil fuels and what was going to happen how harsh the democrats were going to you know basically put the clamp on them because of Environmental Issues it would look when you leave bad that that cash now oh of course it would but like why dont you do it across the board why dont you say hey guess what its a virtual moderation were not going to need that cash period because its more than likely going to be done over whom well you make a great point and lets not forget i cant leave donald off of this he follows if this if this bribery for a pardon thing turns out to be true look theres plenty of legalized bribery thats happened with pardons over the years i mean you have bill clinton last day in office pardon a billionaire who has a home we have most wanted list for a lot of crime marc rich who is accused of everything from tax evasion to illegal trade with a Foreign Government guess what bridges wife donated thousands of dollars to the Clinton Library george w. Bush commuted perjury sentence for lewis Scooter Libby it was also dick cheney steve chief of staff for revealing the identity of cia agent Valerie Plame and finally george h. W. Bush he pardoned Armand Hammer for making illegal contributions to the mix and campaign after a hammer. Contributed over 100000 to the Republican Party so im sorry contributions for pardons thats a large part and are never free. For president elect joe biden the road to clinching the democratic primary and ultimately the 2020 president ial election was paved by black people from the organizers across the south in places like georgia where former gubernatorial candidate and Voting Rights advocate Stacey AbramsVoting Rights activist and organizer Latasha Brown and countless others gears building a base that had all too often been ignored while in 2020 they were heard regardless of where you get your news the story was the same black voters made all the difference though black voters only make up a level percent of the National Electorate 9. 10 of them supported joe biden now with inauguration just around the corner on january 20th and the by the administration already appointing key positions legacies civil rights organizations and black leadership in congress are calling on biden to do more to date legacy organizations like the interval a. C. P. In the National Urban league say they have not been consulted about key cabinet picks and havent met with biden since the election. We arent asking for some kind of veto were asking for some kind of consultation said marc morial head of the National Urban league we are still in a wait and see mode but we think that the Civil Rights Community should be more closely engaged kid buys or to buy representative Cedric Richmond a prominent black elected figure will be leaving his post to join the Administration Biden has a black woman Vice President as and has appointed black women to his Communications Team but that hasnt quell concern among Civil Rights Community. We havent had a meeting with them we have not had a conversation about the georgia Runoff Election we have not had direct conversations about key appointments that are going said Derrick Johnson head of in double a c p. Civil rights leaders in this country should be on par if not more than other constituency groups he has met with. The biden team has a lot of work to do for sure and still thousands of positions have yet to be filled for those who did the work to get him elected those who showed up in droves the black community that broke records and never quivered in their faith in joe biden many are looking for what a Biden White House will do for them. That is the big question let me ask you do you feel hes shes done enough so far within this transition to represent i mean is there are is there kind of claims coming out of words or representation words we did for you you really bring back you know do you feel that all of water what they what the claims are valid because to whom much is given much is required when we talk about the Demographic Group that made the most striking efforts for joe biden they were supportive of him even when it looked like his campaign was faltering in the primaries it was black people the arguments from news media and other organizations even the d. N. C. About this well of suburban white women and what they were going to do what we saw what they did half of them voted very strongly in support of donald trump regardless of a lot of the things in the characteristics that they said they didnt like about him but black people stayed steadfast in the biden camp and i feel like at this point specifically for these legacy organizations the question is why havent we been brought in why arent we being consulted theyre not necessarily saying you need this many people who are of africanamerican to sit on these different different administrators positions but they are saying that people should come up for consideration we want to know what this process looks like we brought people out for you which they did they did a lot of organizing they did a lot of you know boots on the ground in states and in areas where in 2016 the black vote was suppressed and a lot of voters just didnt get enthusiastic or even care to come out they were able to turn that around in 2020 so now the question is what do black people get off of this its interesting because i think weve seen that a lot over the years from a lot of different politicians you know will will use people to get a. Elected them the moment they get into office its kind of like well you know youre over here and i might have a meeting every now and again but im not really going to listen to you im not really going to like you know. Make sure that youre taken care of especially in the corporate donations were talking about earlier suppression that they were they got out of their corporate and banking animals 1st and maybe the American People 2nd 3rd 4th down on the list you know it to me. Look at the end of the day they are still building a coalition theyre still putting everything together so you know theres that theres that argument that says well maybe its just too soon wait till were actually get to january 20th before we start criticizing and thats kind of where i am on it i mean just today we found out that the mayor of atlanta last bottoms is under consideration for the Small Business administration. Obviously kareen jeanpierre shes there in communications so with the most sanders a lot of people are upset that they are not you know leaving communications that neither of them is actually the White House Press secretary but as you and i both know White House Press secretaries rarely last all 4 years so whoever you have now more than likely wont be there next year and it goes down the wrong and they elevate more people i think that theres much to be said about waiting a little bit and seeing how this goes the other thing that i think is interesting is that. You have legacy organizations that are all that always push democratic elected officials a lot more than they ever will republicans and i think that if you were the average black voter the people who actually turned out for him their issue isnt as much representation as it is are you going to do the things that you promised the black Community Whether that comes from somebody whos a black face in that office or not they want to make sure that you know hood is treated as it should be so that housing availability is where it needs to be that Student Loan Debt is answered that there is accessibility for not only Small Businesses but also people who want to start entrepreneurship ventures that housing availability is open for those who are trying to be 1st time homeowners i think that poor black people across this country the question is more of a policy one than it is the imperatives of who is in the position at any given point i think thats the most astute thing ive heard on this topic is what you just said is that the most. Important thing is what it what are the actual people whats the Community Getting because its very easy to kind of appoint token its very easy to say hey heres a win this person looks like you know they might answer to wall street or they might answer to someone who doesnt whose lives nowhere and has nothing to do with your lives and go make your life better but oh look they look like you and weve seen it and weve seen it in several administrations actually the administration that the most the most black people was that was president clintons 2nd only to what we saw with the george w. George w. Bush administration which actually had the most black people in high level positions but if you were to ask you know people who are adults back you know in the early 2000 what that be able to black community they would tell you based on nothing so its not just having black faces in those positions you actually have to be there to put the proof in the pudding to the policy you promise promise the black community most definitely all right everybody as we go to break remember that you could also start watching the hawks on the man with a brand new portable t.

OLivia Newton John one spam mostly saying that every face tells a story. Well as we enter into the 1st half of the 21st Century Technology has now shown us that not every face tells a story in fact there are now thousands of faces online that have only one story and that story is fake and its 1st sale yes the New York Times is now reporting that thousands of photos of simulated people are starting to show up around are starting to show up around the internet used as masks by real people with nefarious intent from spies who died on the tract of face in an effort to infiltrate the Intelligence Community to online harassers who troll their targets with a friend leave assad yes social media and their online outlets are seeing the rise of not just fake news but fake people to no longer content to just steal random pictures of actual real people know now through the beauty of Artificial Intelligence as you can see on your screen here online troublemakers can buy one or a 1000 different pictures of very different people who simply do not exist and none of the people youre seeing right now are real people their Computer Generated images with prices ranging anywhere from 2. 99 for one fake person or a 1000. 00 for a 1000 photos of pay people apparently the world of creating fake fake folks is bringing in real dollars plus for extra bucks you could adjust the photos age likeness and ethnicity to your very liking this is all possible things to an Artificial Intelligence called generate of adversarial role network and according to the times it works by feeding a Computer Program a bunch of photos of real people it studies them and then tries to come up with its own photos of people while another part of the system tries to detect which of those photos are fake this back and forth style system apparently makes the end product even more indistinguishable indistinguishable from a real existing human face and speaking of real life human beings joining us now to discuss the ups and downs of this latest technology because they go to media analysts lionel of leno media lie always a pleasure having you on sir. Thank you sir and by the way anybody who can quote a Livia Newton John and work that into this brilliant prolegomena i think media Pay Attention this man is a match its but you mention a lot of you and john let me take you back in the eightys godly and cream cry from the from 10 c c the morphing of the faces we thought that was interesting you would go from in your which to the Pacific Islander and that was 1905. If ever there was a show that would get this its a this and im not being gratuitous when i say that friends think about this we are now talking about the tube we threw in before animate were now using words like virtual and or remote searchable learning remote not real not school where reimagining the police we have sex robots robots a guy this is a carlin routine the more i do it were going to have weve already had news bots and ai people writing news stories youre going to see news presenters and the like i know americans dont like that term but thats there we now have fans artificial fans in various stadia were going to be having Autonomous Cars were going to be tracked through nano crystal quantum dot die tattooing for virtues for our vaccines we should talk about transhumanism in the old days when we wanted to see immortality with artificial limbs and artificial hearts and organs this is a complete substitution for humanity this is this is as fake as fake gets and nobody is even noticing that we are eliminated that only the appreciation in the next saturday but even the recognition of a huge. No mens eyes i know which school to do this but but my my friends is there not a part of this and im not just saying from your role as as as news purveyors and the like but. Do you do you get the impression that i hate to say young people in particular to see whats happening here because we pump the brakes a little bit just as wait a minute hold it well well find as possibly we will by sharks soon enough but you know i am i am well aware of tys excellent pop culture references but i have one for you that may be just as good maybe not but as Jeff Goldblums if melcombe of draft part paying what so eloquently said your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could they didnt stop to think they should is this technology another example of that in times of lack of foresight. Absolutely im going to throw one back at you from 1007 the sure fire on margarine its not nice to fool Mother Nature to speak it can be done i dont know about and i dont police i am the last person to wax religious about anything by virtue of the fact that im not an expert and im a retired catholic. But syria is to me somewhere this divine orchestra leader if you will the maestro who is saying some things will allow you to tamper with for the betterment of human prosthetics or good dentures or good things that can replace reused parts but when you when you negate the necessity of the soul completely when youre say we dont even need people stay at home hey listen stay at home we have our new ai program we have a new age i notice management never has a notice. Its only the people running the show theres no ai for that but while this is cool and needs an interesting and exercise of our creativity. And ive talked about this before especially when it comes to eventually kids going into the sex robots case but but but you can have robot replacements for strands and when ai keep in mind this you can program a robot to do something but ai programs you so if you have a friend for your child who can either going to solve this says be perhaps a special needs child or maybe maybe it is a child that needs a particular type of attention or what have you. That. Ai robots like a bit of work is going to learn what it is that makes you tick and eventually it is the goal of every ai machine to break away from the bonds to keep the aids so when you have god forbid your child one day talking to which friends and that little robot says or whoever says you know mommy and daddy really dont love you and you know they really dont understand you and im reading the expressions of these i just eliminated the need for friends ive just eliminated the need for humans and why not its where were going oh were all staying indoors were not going outside we dont go to stadia anymore to look at games we have cardboard cutouts and theres ive listed with v. To be now in a complete replacement of human beings all im saying is i dont want to stop progress my dear friend i just want to again i keep saying tap the brakes and just say if you think maybe this could go a little too far remember saudi arabia recognize i think it was sophia a robot iness as a heat as a human being or something that has legal status can you see this going too far is it possible to kill a robot will there be a murder charge for a robot can you forbid rape or abuse or kidnap a robot i mean this is weve got to think about this what we definitely we definitely we definitely have to think about it and we also remember what analysts were saying goodbye is always remember that our inventions are an extension of our own selves so whatever we create through ai is at the end of the day our own creation to deal with thank you so much for coming on always a pleasure having your insight into these issues thank you so much for. Thank you so much.
