A rush off to ukraine and wed be exhausted. The americans would like to put your bands west on your pants on the front. O u. K. Auction houses cancel the sale of any fuel can shields taken from the country by british soldiers in the 19th century. Thats after the off the face, the pressure from the east african countries government, the 19th century athenian showed a vital part of the feel. P has called draw. Heritage was allegedly new to different colonial times. British troops planned to numerous artifacts, which found their way into private collections and public museums in the united kingdom. Since the shields reappearance at the auction, the European National heritage Restitution Committee has stepped in condemning the sale as quote in appropriate and immoral since the author of fact has been monthly acquired in a context of a punitive expedition to the c o. P. A in which these items were looted. The sale of this item annual auction is inappropriate. A heard from history professor hobbit by a law from the issue of being heritage or 40. He says, african states must Work Together to fight for the return of stolen artifact that showed that that was uh, auctioned uh, to be auctioned uh in new castle by the understanding the guideline, the auction house because it could have significance to the people in the government that shared was looked at in uh uh, after you 1868 when the beat this expedition moved to the deal. And uh, i talked with the deal can fall, says at the 4th test market bella, which was, uh, the seat of, uh, the end product to adjust the 2nd buys in. So the british took a large number of heritage of the facts. Some of them which are very vital importance like this field. The british x petition was not simply an expedition to flee some york in prison us around to, to take all objects to the objects of the historical significance. So its not gonna take up a 2nd layer, the guardian colonial the object to that to taken out of africa during the colonial period. Uh they must be or the 5 digits of the only know of every i think a member of the unit sco shrouds a strongly advocate. The fact that the 9070 convention is uh, uh, mid deliberately. So that the objects from the colonial period is that theyre not, it should not be the time. So who is that . Uh felician must to be uh amended so that it should include the parent from the 16th century on what to swim objects we have the staff to to, to, to be taken out of africa. So those are the top, sorry ssl, i dont forget to check out our website r t dot com for more. Im a big show adult shelby back up at the top of the hour with the main to stay with us the the hey, im rick sanchez. Ive been doing news now for 30 years and 2 languages all over the world. Here in the us. Ive interviewed for president s work that uh, 5 of the us has Major Television networks. I dont like what they do. So yeah, i think there should be on a should, it should be direct and it should be impactful. This, by golly, is direct impact the so lets start with this question. How does a bite ministration describe something that should have been so easy . Wasnt tell us. So our nations most important advisor on all matters related to warren defense goes to the hospital and he doesnt tell anybody. All right, maybe its just a quick thing like, you know, bad flu sprained ankle, that kind of thing. And he didnt have time to call his boss who happens to be by the way, the president United States. Oh, why . Who, by the way also happens to be engaged right now in and active military conflicts in the middle east. What is turning into a disastrous intervention in, in ukraine, as well as the accusations of reading china through military exercises right off the coast of taiwan. So yes, with all of that going on, its expected and the history has shown that us president s maintain regular, if not daily communications, with members of their Defense Department and their security council. General lloyd austin is both the sits on the National Security council. Hes the secretary of defense. Now it couldve been no big deal because he went to the hospital one day for something routine been done a buddy . Of course, of course, nobody would be talking about it if that was the case, but that is not what happened. What austin had was Prostate Cancer and he was operated on weeks in advance. And it happened under general anesthesia when he was out and nobody told a whitehouse. But this is where the story gets really weird. So a few weeks after the surgery, he has some kind of relapse and its taken by ambulance to the hospital and again, the white house isnt informed. So what happens when he gets to the hospital . You ask good question. The doctors take a look at them and theyre so alarmed by his condition. They send them to intensive care, you know, where they send patients and critical condition. Still mister button doesnt know anything about this. Monday turns to tuesday, tuesday turns to wednesday and then thursday, and still lloyd austin general lloyd austin is in the hospital in intensive care. And the president of the United States doesnt know about it. Finally, friday comes and the president is informed. And now everybody else knows. Everybody else is asking the same questions that you would think they would ask. How did nobody maleness . We have a guy whos in charge of our i read about it today. Hes using a laptop from his hospital bed. They couldnt find them secretary of defense and hes running the war with a laptop like a child. What do you know . Like a child plays with a laptop . As you can see, the president is getting a lot of heat for this. And theres something we should probably mention at this point. Obviously general austins illness is very serious. And look, were not trying to downplay his condition and certainly of course we wish him and his family. Well, while he battles what could be horribly and serious disease. So were not trying to pick on him can when hes sick, or when hes down here. But what we are saying, and i think needs to be said, is that there are some legitimate questions here that need to be breaking news. Now we are learning secretary of defense, lloyd austin, has been released from the hospital defense secretary lloyd austin was released from the hospital yesterday after 2 weeks of treatment for complications from Prostate Cancer surgery. Newly released 911 call is were billing details about defense. Secretary lloyd austins emergency trip to the hospital. Last month austin was admitted for complications from Prostate Cancer surgery without President Biden or other top officials. Knowing of course, my colleagues in the media have jumped all over the story, but theyre covered at the same way. They cover everything else. You know, they turn it into a political so pop, right . Said she said the republican, the democrat 5 by right . Usually what they, they dont ask the right questions, you know, it might take as long as i dont think this is just the story about some elderly president who. Busy arent communicating and didnt know what was going on with the member of his cabinet. I think what their lack of communication tells me or certainly makes me ask, is that maybe these men dont need to talk to each other. Maybe they didnt talk to each other because they dont need to talk to each other because of decisions that are being made about warranties. Are not being made by them. Or oh sure theyre involved. Both of them have been front and center with pronouncements, right . Deliberate news conferences, teleprompters and you know, like these armando denominate, former general lloyd austin as a 28 secretary of defense. I want to thank you, general your friend, but i want to thank you, general austin for once more stepping forward to serve your nation. It will be my sincere honor and privilege to return to the department and to lead our Great Service members and civilians and accomplishing the mission of ensuring our nation security. Let me say this after watching that just because you read prepared comments from a teleprompter, doesnt mean you are originating policy. See what im saying. And heres the question. We need to ask, how be holding . Are these men to those who have the most to gain from these wars that they always talk to us about . Start with mr. Biden, for example, of the people around him. All right, 5 in Foreign Policy team, both as president and Vice President have always read and still do read like a whos who of wall street and corporate suits. Well see more connect with the big money and they are to the people of the United States. How do i know this . I looked it up, you could to look it up. What i found is that the same people who set our Foreign Policy in this country come from institutions that benefit from those policies. They come from a hedge funds, they come from private equity, they come from defense contractors. You want names, lets name names. There we go. Nicholas burns, in charge of a china policy. His corporate benefactors, the cohen group, campbell, hes on the National Security council. His corporate died, the age of group, tom donald and also for the security council. His corporate dog isnt as big as it gets. Hes with black Rock Investments or the group that was just given essentially ukraine. And theres, when the sherman state department or business dies Albright Stonebridge jake sullivan, mr. Bidens National Security advisor is corporate collection, macro advisory. There they are. So what about lloyd austin . Well, i got to tell you the general austins corporate connections run deep and wide as well. They include the new core corporation, united technologies, raytheon, raytheon, and prior to joining President Biden, austin worked together with the us secretary of state anthony blinking at the Pine Island Capital Partners group, a private equity firm investing in your ready Defense Companies who hoffer, among other things, access to government leaders, they say like President Biden, one more thing about austin that you should probably know about you live comfortably, but not often patiently for most of his life on a military salary. Good for him. But now he lives on a mansion right on the ocean in a place called kaya our island and South Carolina and iowa. And hes worth more than 7000000. 00. So when we come back, im gonna play for you the emergency call to police. When they tried to get an ambulance to the generals home, by the way, its interesting how they handle that. Thats going to be funny to a fascinating to listen to. And were going to be joined by these 2 guys calling nixon and Michael Maloof to get their take on this really weird set of circumstances and what it really means dont go away, will be right back the the welcome back. Im rick sanchez. I want you now to hear something. This is the call to the authorities to send an ambulance immediately to the home of general austin a few weeks ago. Listen, by the way, something is interesting. I listen to how they try to coax the person on the other line to make sure the ambulance arrives with no light, no bubble, no noise. They dont want the neighbors to find out here. Check this out. Can i ask that can anyones not show up with like some sirens. Were trying to remain a little settled. Yeah, i understand. Yeah. Usually when they turn into a residential neighborhood theyll turn them off, but it isnt reporting in a chest pain at all. Okay. Did he pass out or does he feel like hes going to pass out . Uh no. Okay. And like you said hes, hes awake, hes alert and oriented, hes not confused or is that correct . Correct. Joining mean. 2 to talk about this former pentagon official, Michael Maloof, and the host of the critical our garland mix. And gentlemen, thanks so much for being with us. I guess, garland i start with you, does the president deserve to be criticized for this whole place . You know, absolutely. But you know, it is, has been my experience that when someone gives you a litany of excuses, often times, maybe one of them is true, but often times none of them is true. We were originally told that it was elective surgery. We were told that no anastasia was used, which would make which that argument would be used to say he didnt have to transfer authority because he wasnt put the sleep. Yes. And then it moves, of course to prostate surgery, possibly. So weve, the story is been evolving and i think in law, what did they call that . A creeping admission. I watched. Whats the biggest thing here, michael . The fact that the president wasnt told the fact that the president didnt need to be told, or that they essentially lied to us. I think the president , it shows that the president doesnt hold his defense chief and highest in high priority. From the policy standpoint, its blinking who runs Foreign Policy and National Security. Can you know what it is . I dont know if you, if you listen when i was just doing my intro, but i found out that blinking and, and general washington Work Together. Yes. In the corporate world. Yes. But its in the administration bleak and has the lead on National Security and Foreign Policy as does jake sullivan. So thats fascinating. Youre saying, look, the president , if it had been a blanket in the hospital, he would have called you probably because he needs to talk to him. I dont, anybodys, but he doesnt want to get a sense of the senate days. Well, heres what, heres you know what i think . I think he doesnt need to talk to either of them or, i think and look at this is not a conspiracy show and im not going into a deep state thing. Okay. But i do believe, and im not going to call, its a deep state, that there is foundation only a group of people. I would say no government who make decisions who have not elected positions, but somehow are in positions of power. And they have as much to say about ukraine and gaza and taiwan as the president or the secretary of defense, or even the head of the state department. And you say what their proxies are sitting right there in those positions of the administration. That re representing the corporate people and, and all the others you listed earlier and their, and their view points and a bite. It doesnt is out of it any way. And they, they shelter him a lot. So that makes it and, and, and hes not even in control. So its other people who are really calling the shot. Well, and garland heres where it gets interesting. I, i agree that in the case of fighting, it does look like because the president is somewhat feeble. An elderly, maybe they do a work around, but i would suggest and let me ask it in the form of a question to you, how theyve been doing that work around through bush and obama, and the trump and all the others as well. So i think the answer is clearly yes, we know of multiple instances that were reported under donald trump, where he gave specific orders to people under him and they just disobeyed the orders in lied to him about things that have happened. And theres been recent stories that have come out that said, people in the pentagon are making preparations, in case donald trump becomes president. So he wont use his powers in a quote dig tutorial way, which i interpret to mean he may actually say, likes like, lets not go to war with some one or Something Like that. Yeah. So if there is an entity, you can find obama to right. Yeah. I mean, you can call it the deep state, you can call it the state, it doesnt matter. But there is clearly an entity of power that pushes an ideology that will, if the president goes along with it, great. If he doesnt go along with it, theyll do what they need to do. Let me ask you this. Youre a military guy, right . Doesnt bother you that this general suddenly shows up in kite our Island Living on a private island on a mansion and is worth over 7000000. 00. I mean, well how does that all . Yeah, he has a right to get a job. And if want somebody wants to pay and i dont give you that, im not a communist here. Im not saying it doesnt deserve to make money. But is there something suspicious about, you know, if you go to the corporate realm, youre going to get that kind of money because of your, your influence and who you have and who you can relate to in it. And that hes obviously the secretary to. Yeah. But, but then it goes, but then it goes back to the let me see, heres a problem. Yes, hes fine. Im no longer a military person. I no longer work in the government. I go work at ibm and i get a great job. But that all the study goes from ibm back to the white house. Who do you think hes going to take care of either . Yeah. But ultimately or raytheon. Yeah, hes looking out for gracie on. I mean, thats why we have 2 wars. One of these words as 5 fronts. So one of the big cheney the master of the very thing were talking about now. Yeah. Yeah. But i will, i will take exception with one area. When i was independent, god don round rumsfeld ruled. Yeah. And he would have major knock down, drag out with call and pile when he was secretary of state and, and kind of lisa rice was in the National Security council trying to keep them apart. And then trying to come together to do to come to some compromise between them. I think it depends upon the weight. Should we invade afghanistan, 1st, or a rock 1st, because they ended up doing, basically catastrophic that decision was made before. Uh before. Uh uh, some of these guys even came in the office and, and this is, this is the unfortunate but, but your point is what that, that, that its worse now thats actually worse funny, but it was still bad that very little bad. It was bad, but i think a lot of it had to do with the personality drive and, and, and because bush respected rumsfeld and because of his own trustees and youre saying are so its not, no rush. So now hes the guy was solve the exit of the United States military, out of your rock that, that introduce isis. And with all the respect to him, because i know hes sick. Right now we pile on the guy. But but, but, but yeah, were finding out that there are some things there that make it look like hes got a strong, hes not a strong personality. No. And what were looking at here, i mean thats why the d o j has to protect hunter by because thats of the game now, in fluid i have influenced, i can market that in fluids. If my fathers the v p, if im connected to whoever the game in washington dc is selling your influence, peddling your influence now, and whether its the president s dawn or whether its, you know, youre a, you know, somebodys wife or daughter or you actually hold the position thats where the money is. Yeah, i, i, you know, i agree with you. Ive heard my republican colleagues and friends often argue that a 100 by has done a horrible thing because he used his. 6 big Vice President to get jobs and be paid and stuff. And i, whenever i hear that argument, i think whole wouldnt do that, right . Its a lot of problems with the cocaine and the end, the end, the end, the prostitutes of everything else. But thats it. To be honest, i have less of a problem with his own personal vices than i do, you know, because hes a human being and a but hes suffered from that. Whatever the case. Yeah. Hes, hes like, when you get into the other things that are happening, his connections to the Bio Research Labs funnelling money to the bottom. How is that different from, from blinking, and sullivan and, and wendy williams, our, im sorry, Wendy Sherman and the people who did it with a back legal team. And so they have to protect him because thats how theyre all feeling there by everyone who is in power. Tony blinking, or whoever it is, they have a severe of influence around them. And all of their assistants and the people around them are peddling that influence. This is not a democrat or republican thing. This is a, this is a thing in our government that we have to probably find a way to do so. Lots peddling is against the law, simple and pure and simple. And how do you make it against the law, but they did it. Thats what hes, thats why they had these congressional hearings now because he wasnt, it wasnt what a matter of just doing this man. Do. All these people in the bottom of his grades who quite a job in corporate world on tuesday. And he was born providing on wednesday because he was bidding, because allegedly joe biden was reaping a financial benefit from it while he was on a government salary and the capital law. But, but, but this is not, i dont want to turn to show it to another 100 and lizzy good or bad, is obviously the guys, you know, crockett, among other things, and problematic. My question is, he was an instrument. Hes a symptom of yes. Yeah, of the problem using the keypad, which of the right is an expression of the problem . Yeah, this is what theyre all doing. You can see it blatantly and 100100 by them. But when you start looking at jo bidens cabinet, how all of these people came straight out of the think tanks and these think tanks are funded by the military Industrial Complex and they know this. And then when they leave, they will go right back to think tanks, and they will be financially rewarded for the contracts that they were able to and dollars. They were an tax benefit from what were doing a new claim, for example, thats the problem. You know, if there were just making money and it was a bank or something but lives get lost. People die, money is spent. Screens dont get new books or whatever it is because we got a 125000000. 00 in new credit. And another 3 or 4000000000. 00 going every day to, to the cost of situation. And another 7 or 8000000000 going to uh, to, to taiwan. And thats, and theyre getting the title. Is that how it works . Sure. Ultimate, i mean it directly indirectly, indirectly plus the influence, its the inflows to the present and Decision Making and, and, and, and also is that worse today than it ever was. Were down to a minute, but i think so i think you do in your work that yeah, you were in the pen, the worst ive ever seen it. Do you think the situation has gotten worse . I definitely, and you can simply just see the unraveling of our government and the lack of legitimacy of the ruling a lead the capitalism run a mark though you havent, you havent even, you know, crony capitalism as opposed. Im off for a capital us, your capital us. We all, you know, i dont like my marginally over here, marginally good. But you know, but yeah, just i get everything right. Yeah. But this is, this is when were, capitalism starts the rock. When you let nothing matter, but how much money can i make off this deal, even if im screwing over my own car, i would argue this is where entire starts to take over. And the import, the thing is to maintain the empire where the ruling elite filled their pockets. And now we have to be the working class has to be sacrificed on behalf of the ruling elite and the ruling lead is no longer viewed as legitimate. Thats a fine, thats an interesting way of putting it. And you, mr. Maloof, that mr. Former pentagon official, your get the final word and it is what our congress is a blatant example of that constantly. And we havent even talked about that. And so its that its in, into, of the 3 of our branches of government. And, and this, an income is about a full truck. And again, it comes in the form of dark money. Exactly. Is fed to people and we dont even know where it comes from. And i hate to say it, but you know, uh, trump got a 120000000. 00 of it, and bite and got another 100000000. 00 plus. And they were the 2 candidates for the presidency and theyll probably get even more of this time. And thats a problem as well, but thats another show for another time. Gentlemen, youve been fantastic, really a great conversation and thank you for joining us. Thats michael. Im a little former pentagon official garland mixing most of the critical hour on radio. Sputnik. He has me on as a guest from time to time. I hope he has me back before we go, i want to remind you of our vision here at simple really. I want to be silo. The world gotta stop living in the boxes, you know, to still live in boxes there, everywhere. Im rick sanchez and ill be looking for you again right here, where i hope to give you a direct impact. The on the, at the end of the 19th century, africa was divided between european empires, which mercilessly oppressed the indigenous population. Modern day tends and he used to be a german colony. The germans levied heavy taxes on local drives and use them as free labor on cotton plantations. The pheasants protest turned into an uprising against the colonial list under the banner of the religious movement of the magazine magazine. It was led by a man named kinsey to the rebels use guerrilla tactics, because they did not have the power to grasp the german army in head on confrontation. But the germans were not able to suppress the resistance of the guerrillas either. So the invaders decided to starve that population to that. One of the commanders of the german troops kept in wagon. Heim wrote only unger and one can lead to final submission. Military actions alone will remain more or less a drop in the ocean. The blasphemous bland work. The invaders burned villages and fields. In 2 years, germany deliberately starved up to 300000 people did that later. The monstrous experience of the 2nd right in tanzania was copied by the 3rd right, lead by the nazis in order to extra pay the be bows of europe. The i watching is why isnt why in this call, but if i give but plenty of the store in this shed and i shall phenomenon just the last name, scare me. And when i am, what are your desktop session . Lets just sean your. Just a new fund, you bought new brand new settlements in the the media the, the, the situation clearly indicates that the pro war camp in europe is still very, very strong. Foreign minister, saturday elaborate says there is no western appetite for peace in ukraine. After it leaked cold between the top and german generals revealed their plan to bump russias crimean bridge. The kind was yeah, hot, it doesnt matter. We need to ensure that from the very beginning, there is no mention that would make us part of the conflict. This is a temporary refuge for those people who are evacuated from the town of dave kind of far away from them. Thats at the moment. This temper, ricky g center houses at least 40 different people thousands of civilians, a say
