Lets get straight down to business and start top story today a newly released report by a conservative watchdog alleges theres a covert multimillion dollar strategy to promote left leaning values in the u. S. The document a massive scheme to push certain topics from supporting obama care to slamming Donald Trumps border war down off takes a closer look at how it operates. Whats more powerful in politics than money a strong candidate with a good program and idealist would see nothing a realist would say but a politician would say dark money dark money is the millions of dollars that behind the scenes donors are spending to send the political train down the track and according to the left leaning media its a bad bad thing because the conservatives do it because others have made billions and want to ensure their government doesnt limit their ability to make more conservative donor david koch as one half of the Koch Brothers came to symbolize the influence of dark money in america but you know whos even better than conservatives that slipping the bills into their protegees pockets. Democrats according to this research a group called Arabella Advisors l. L. C. Has been in the vanguard of the leftist money holes they shelter under their umbrella for nonprofit organizations by their nature they do not have to disclose who theyre getting their money from but this Research Suggests that theyve gathered a huge number of very wealthy donors some of the nations largest grant making institutions including the Rockefeller Packard and koch foundations the donors to the funds managed by arabella it remains unclear why such large and powerful institutions seek outside philanthropic consulting but presumably a significant part of our bill is appeal lies in its ability to obscure large Financial Transactions these for nonprofits have been showering and to conservative grassroots organizations with their money take this 1. 00 with a name so noble its cloying our goal is to oppose an interim short list yes they get their pockets stuffed by 1633rd an offshoot of our bell advisors another group save my care has been pushing against republican attempts to repeal obamacare the president is sabotaging the system. Will be another uncertainty in health care. Remember this it led to this. We wont forget. Well their financial bad bone is made up by bills coming from a nother arabella advisers sprout the new venture fund the dark money is not a trick exclusively from the democrat playbook yes its been revealed they do outperform the conservatives when it comes to the amount spent by more than 20 percent in fact but pro republican donors. Do that too and according to the Research Media coverage is way out of balance with most outlets reserving a good bashing for the conservatives when you look at the Mainstream Media which has deservedly declining part declining viewership both the editorial in the production staff is chiefly in the anchors are chiefly democrats or democrat leaning so of course out of the Mainstream Media youre going to get that that narrative reality is the independents and the rising anticorruption anticrime only part voting populace in United States is against the use of dark body is against the use of corruptly having foundations reality is that a lot of money comes in from unions from particularly from the Public Sector unions to to their favorite politicians both legally and i think illegally but there has been a rise now of dark money and dark money is bad whether its right or left leaning in the public has a right to know each individuals vote counts and that it cant be swamped by the activities of partisan. Groups that are illegally sourcing and donating money so next time you see a nonprofit banner stirring up a fight for yet a nother democratic staple remember regardless of what side of the political spectrum with comes from its not just people but billionaires fortunes behind it to.

You know well absolutely that was the wrong report we brought you the most potently lets no go to report that we were going to bring in washington the same proving relationships with surrounding venezuela here is more goes to. U. S. Military has returned to guyana after many years on a joint military exercise slash humanitarian mission theres nothing quite like a humanitarian mission led by guys who specialize in bombing things its like having a Drug Rehab Center run by drug lords but small details the important thing is that guyana is important to you on a 6 in a strategic location on the north edge of south america and on the caribbean and the look what a coincidence it borders venezuela i mean what are the chances of that the same venezuela that has u. S. Bases all around it is here here here here brazil is in thing that its open to hosting a u. S. Military base a mile and israel is like the center of a do nothing of u. S. Bases same venezuela that the u. S. Has threatened repeatedly where it is trying to spark regime change and which it is encircled with guns just in case trump decides to pull the trigger its over even that frankly could be toppled great booklet by the military or the military. Youd think entirely surrounding nations you dont like might be a bit overkill but its the pressure the psychological pressure that matters the promise is easier when the guys youre negotiating with always have something to fear specifically about their country being burned down if they say the wrong thing and it isnt just venezuela i mean look at iran as a new way to check a chewing gum wrapper without hitting the u. S. Marine on the news which come to think of it they could well uses an excuse to invade iran a few months ago trump even sent more troops to the region just in case they left an empty spot at which iran could through a chewing gum wrapper and china or for the faint of heart. One gets the impression that there are more u. S. Troops around in china than there are u. S. Troops left in the United States but dont have the map for you for america that isnt enough the us needs to develop alternative operating locations the pentagon will continue to develop new concepts build a distributed and resilient force posture and field new capabilities to counter these threats honestly the drug metaphor seems remarkably apt the pentagon recently boasted that it has locations in more than 160 countries absalom sort of military presence in 84 percent of the countries on this planet and yet not enough they just need more crave more. But the ongoing trade war between the United States and china many battle lines have been drawn in many boundaries set and now for fox news host has been accused of colluding with the enemy no less of the whole line of patry it yoga gear which she says stands for American Values was found to be made in china. Absolutely we dont want to be into the chinese we dont want to be this servants. And again someone needs to make china play fair the ongoing discussions about russia russia russia what we really should be looking at is china the running them out of business so they can buy cheap foreign beef the American Consumers are better. Whether or not theyre going to. Put their phone in it really doesnt matter its about freedom its about the bill of rights its about constitutional freedom thats what the whole line is about thats the box of. One spread for. The solution the Russian Far East of here a lot of all stalled leaders theyre meeting for the final day of what is the Eastern EconomicForum President putin discussions with the indian the japanese the malaysian the mongolian leaders talking about how best to try to move forward on trade on technology on the environment and how to avoid Global Military escalations a correspondent covering that event for you. That was quite a company in that room the leader of the 2nd most populous country in this world and as we began to realize in the last few years a staunch ally of russia and the plus the leader of japan an ally of the us in the 1st place but as she puts it himself a great friend of the russian president Vladimir Putin and finally the heads of 2 asian mongolia and malaysia a lot was said about whats left of Global Security now that the intermediate range Nuclear Forces treaty is gone because the Us Administration thought that was the way to go in the 21st century mr putin said that he believes the world will have plenty of reasons to worry about after all a potential new arms race is a very big deal at the fuel which was in the lease it was a series of challenges facing humanity imagine if theres some weapon maybe a nuclear bomb in a little bit over our heads. This could drastically change the security situation across the globe as for all American Partners keep silent when we suggest continuing to negotiate to some moments theres nothing new in that. Another key message from the russian president was that moscow will keep up with all the missile r. And d. That the west will get itself involved in but when it comes to the deployment that wont happen on the part of russia when it comes to the weapons previously outlawed by the i. N. F. Treaty until america starts ticking the boxes on their deployment plans no matter how difficult and serious this issue is though Vladimir Putin decided its worth adding a bit of humor and jokingly suggested that america should waste money if it can buy some of the Arms Technology from russia. But i still dont know do you want us to sell you those weapons they are saying they will soon produce their own that might be so but then why would they spend the money if we have already spent it wouldnt breach security but would help create balance. A Landmark International agreement that is now in real jeopardy because of the diplomatic methods of the u. S. Administration as a socalled or when nuclear deal well judging by what the japanese Prime Minister said at the Plenary Session donald trump busy and shinzo abhi arent on the same page and this regard despite them being allies. We have long told the u. S. We have our opinion concerning iran and the nuclear deal i wish it would be resolved through negotiations i talked to the Supreme Leader and he said that iran isnt going to produce or use Nuclear Weapons he said it very clearly. Believe it or not before shaking hands and vladivostok mr putin and mr abbay met 26. 00 times before and the japanese leader was keen to point that out once again after all they dont call each other great friends for nothing and he even entertain the audience with his knowledge of a russian prover that suggests that you have to eat a lot of salt together to become real friends. The audience here might not know that the summit meeting weve just had was our 27th meeting ladies and gentlemen its important for you to know that president putin and i have had so many meals together time and time again that one might say we even keel lives of soul together it was clear that the Prime Ministers of india and japan wanted to be good guests and show a bit of admiration for the country that theyre visiting and thats when the names of russian pole woods and riders started coming up and even quotes the run from modi the indian Prime Minister even compared to the renowned washington writer leo tolstoy with someone who is known as the father of the nation and in the Mahatma Gandhi so its this kind of warmth respect and the desire to hear each others opinions that is form and vladivostok will be remembered for. Its likely one of the morning is minister from russia coming up as well after the break look at these pictures the flooding that terrible russias far east hit by severe flooding in some places many homes really under water this been for a month where the men say its probably going to get better but it still will bring you the latest when we come back. Join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and ill be speaking to guest of the world of politics sport im showbusiness ill see that. Good morning the Worlds Biggest Oil corporations have spent 50000000000 dollars on projects that undermine climate goals according to reports by financial think tank carbon track and i want climate activists insist Large Companies and governments should come up with proper initiatives to tackle the problem seems some experts proposals are pretty radical. Of. Course those ideas aside the main official initiative is the 2015 paris climate agreement ratified by 95 states that countries should take to limit Global Warming but most of the signatories of failed to live up to those commitments. Were to discuss the issue with a panel of experts. Cold was not legally binding there was no reason for anyone to stick to it they can do what they like and theyve carried on doing what theyve like. Im afraid were in the grip of a series of systems which are putting profit before everything theyre going to wring the last drop of profit out of all the Old World Industries such as the fossil fuel industries weve known about this problem weve known about c o 2 weve known about me thing we know about the feedback loops weve known about the effect on the ice sheets capitalism has had plenty of time to solve this problem but im afraid it hasnt dealt with it so we have to start dealing with capitalism the only way were going to do that is by taking radical action on the streets ive been on the streets myself with Extinction Rebellion and the people come up to us and theyre with us u. K. For example there was a lot of activism. In the last 20 years and running up to 2008 went to. School the Climate Change act that was supposed to deal with the problem and hold the government and all future governments to hold their feet to the fire in terms of doing whats required. And that was certainly the result of lots of different you know different environmental groups and you know hundreds of thousands of people marching repeatedly so i think you know we have seen change but its just nowhere near enough to tackle the crisis at scale do you as a climate scientist feel that the activists play a serious role in the in the development of towards a solution for Climate Change problem when extension of the extinction barry again is. Not one who now is agent to make change it means the government. Need to make massive changes to make this happen weve got ourselves into a situation sine he said then well im about to. And this isnt going to be something that we can just make it quite that. Way. Its scary vincent be and long call up with their into newt was this is site can she was less and consumes different may we get work did we ate a lot of our air economy and that is not how theyve and now right that without in son impacts i think that people the the public and un politicians arent quite aware of the drastic changes we need to start reducing our Carbon Emissions and one of the things that i think we need to consider and which is anathema to that to many people in the Green Movement is that we we increase our use of new clear and i know many in the Green Movement to on like this book really the only country that sever successfully deep carbonized to sell it trista go put is fronts and it to to in the 1960 s. And 970 s. By by going for Nuclear Power why why worry is the i i dont think people are ready to cut their energy use world wide since 970 weve seen world wide energy use increased dramatically and more eat that were not going to be ale to persuade people to reduce their energy use and one of the only ways i think were going to come by Climate Changes to to form both renewables our new clear is to to provide alternative source is because i just dont think people are ready to to co energy use were to addicted to our our lifestyles them truly a couple or will do stories him brief or youre starting in the Southern African countries him by a guard be zimbabwe is former president has died aged 95 lead the country be 37 years and he was forced to reside in to a d. 70 in africa you is renowned as a fighter for freedom what one point or was among the founders of of free zimbabwe but in the International Community mugabi became notorious for brutally human rights abuses corruption of running a barbaric dictatorship rushs far east story from the hundreds of emergency workers a been taking pardon ongoing rescue operations do you do those floods look at this scale of it sir via flooding continues to hit the area surrounding the ammo river and they have barrel screeching since early august is not you will think this particular bad this year more than 100. 00 residential buildings remain underwater things improving there but only slowly say the weatherman. A month since for me kevin though in states with all the rest of the news so much more want to check it out if you get a moment stopped by next though people of all of these latest on air after this break. You know world of big partisan movies a lot and conspiracy its time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that Mainstream Media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the bath and shouting past each other its time for Critical Thinking its time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks.
