Transcripts For RT Watching The Hawks 20240712 : comparemela

The Natural National Defense Authorization act which would prohibit the expenditure of monies to reduce the number of u. S. Troops deployed in afghanistan below 8000 without a series of conditions 1st being met yes reduced and just what are these socalled conditions well according to the men according to the amendment the department of war sorry the department of defense must be able to certify that leaving afghanistan will not will not increase the risk for the expansion of existing or formation of new terrorist safe havens inside of afghanistan and that it will not compromise or otherwise negatively affect the ongoing United States Counterterrorism Mission against the Islamic State al qaeda and associated forces. In other words my friends lets set the bar for leaving afghanistan so high so impossible to reach that no president no matter how just or unjust in their intentions for leaving will ever be able to bring our troops home from the war that never read and that is why we are always watching the hawks. She wanted list on a cd you st you want to see it is so you like to see the prices you always stay ill see you always will slice grapes see this sleaze systemic deception is complete show which will be so when the joke is. Welcome on the watch of the hawks i am tired rove and im surprised so they are setting the bar high to get out of afghanistan over the last few weeks and the amount of money that theyre spending on the n. B. A. In general during this crisis of pandemic just makes me weep inside after 10 years of covering stories like this and i think youre not alone with when with all of the things that you listed off in terms of the characteristics that they have to lead up to for a real pullout. There is no way he will ever meet those. To meet one that would take decades to meet all of those who were going to go through presidency after presidency before we could even you know edge off a little bit of progress it really is incredible music because its like those those where the those parameters are so like specific and yet very good at the same time you know its like its like what we have to know the stand will be safe and the you know terroristic forces or groups will never take over parts of the government before we leave well thats impossible to know and how we choose to have what is what is the process because unlike their new sub National Actors that pop up all the time there are terrorist groups and terrorist cells that they believe have been eradicated but come to find out a decade later they have not been theres no possible way to make that a legitimate claim that we could actually you know have any level of security and leap from thats that its unfair to set up a set of characteristics that youll never possibly be able to meet and to me and then its sad to see it come from House Democrats to this wasnt the son of this wasnt like Mitch Mcconnell and those boys these were the House Democrats this Committee Led by House Democrats and it just shows the weird lust for neverending war that you have that permeates a lot of the halls of congress the Committee Approved the overall india as i said unanimously by 560 that give a 740500000000 in military spending for the next year thats roughly 3 times more than the worlds 2nd highest spender which is china thats a bit obscene given the nature of the of the crisis is that were facing right now is that. It isnt it is not only because of you know the Pandemic Response and everything thats gone wrong there in addition to you know the economic losses that the United States has taken since 1000. 00 hit the country but also the ones that are projected out over the next decade there are several things we could do with this kind of cash that would be a lot more peaceable than using it for purposes that are. Matic in more ways than one you mean to tell me im a sure that youre not excited right now youre not excited right now about the authorization of 79 new f. 35 thats not my god like oh man we got 79 yes 79 f. 35 is Lockheed Martin joint strike fighters they were approved in the bill along with yet again another Nuclear Powered virginia classpath attack submarine because hey you know when facing a pandemic and massive amounts of people getting forced out of their apartments due to you know due to the rent coming back to again and all these other problems after 39 f. 35 is a good thing to have on the back pocket i gess of the military Industrial Complex is never ending it seems like our pockets continually dig deeper for a lot of things that we honestly do not know we do not and then just to give people an idea to. Of where our priorities are according to the advancement of science the pentagon last year spent 55900000000. 00 on research and development this is generally things that are designed to kill lots of people in mass when you look at that figure and look at the research and development that was spent in other branches of Government Health care 38000000000 compared to 55 energy just 4000000000 in the environment just to this we spend 55. 00 almost 60000000000. 00 on research and development of weapons of war rather than on new forms of energy or our environment or health care it shows us what we care about is not the things that people often run on but it does in fact show that this is a congress spirally. America schools are taking a beating again 2821000 were marred with protests and demonstrations from teachers parents and local leaders teachers strikes during that period when the largest the nation had ever seen from chicago to l. A. In virginia to georgia teachers protested over pay the need for smaller classroom sizes more special education teachers counselors and other commonsense needs and by the looks of it 2020 is launching more teacher abacus. The Los Angeles Teachers Union recently released a white paper outlining new calls to action the demands range from defunding the police placing a moratorium on Charter Schools increasing funding from the local state and federal government as well as a wealth tax the white paper in title the same storm but different boats is gaining traction because it outlines the ways Vulnerable Children and communities are continually underserved and how cope at 19 continues to lift the veil on systemic racism. Today Teachers Principals superintendents local School Councils and parents are fighting the white house and United States department of education secretary thats a good boss over the safety of students returning to school with out a plan during the pandemic there is always room for one more clone in the car for the trumpet ministration and folks in walks bits he develops schools should do whats right on the ground at that time for their students and for their situation there is no one uniform approach that we can take should take nationwide. President trump is tweeting and yelling at anyone who will listen that its time for students to return to school hes even threatening to cut School Funding if they arent reopened as if schools are already struggling financially trump dismissed the centers for Disease Control and prevention guidelines calling them quote very tough and expensive which he said ask schools to do impractical things impractical things mr president like what social distancing reducing classroom size to stop the spread providing better cleanest and say material measures what is impractical about that. Absolutely nothing if we actually cared about the youth of america but you know im just what we have is if we actually care about the children and their schooling or at least cared about the ones who are giving their money to private schools and but you know we care about kids in Public Schools that then you would see action but i dont i dont really think they do you know the i dont think theres a there is there might be lip service of but i dont think at the end of the care youre absolutely right again this goes back to politicians having priorities in word but in action not so much. Somebody who never should have been department of education secretary she doesnt have a background in education shes not someone whos ever served in any education capacity as a principal as a superintendent as any type of School Leader as a teacher nothing assistant teacher somebody who volunteered in a classroom to go on down the list shes never had the experience but she is someone who is wrote big checks to Charter Schools and weve seen over and over her you know need for privatization of schools but theres Something Else that is an undercurrent here when it comes to the priorities because as you know there are several acts that were designed from the federal level to give more money to Public Schools the care that the heroes act being among them those were never fully funded so k. 12. 00 education is lacking a lot of funding from the federal level the local level and the state level and right now estimates show that it would take up to 500000000000. 00 in allocation just for the special Education Needs of students to be met alone right now you know theyre asking for 500000000000. 00 theyre not even getting 1000000000 wow its amazing too because as you said you know you always hear you know politicians running whether federal or state talking about education and thats what they run on the campaign trail more money to education all that stuff but its amazing when you look at the actual percentage of members of schools who are being funded absolutely 87 percent of schools in america are not funded adequately at the state level and that means that where where do you pick up that huge shortfall in the budget at the local level and they do that by property taxes and if youre. Somebody who grows up in an impoverished or Poor Community or community where there are more renters than there are homeowners there are schools dont have that monkey those property tax dollars are a lot lower and that helps to set the standard between schools that are and wealthier areas or upper middle class areas versus those that are largely underserved underprivileged or areas that are black and brown and the free market is going to change because as weve talked about on this show as youve talked about most lenders arent given out home loans to folks who live in that area to begin with so theyre being go no thats not going to change anytime soon unless people get together in the community through the government or through the elected politicians that we are aware of these things and want to change things for real thats the only way youre going to see that change absolutely so its kind of a selffulfilling prophecy but you know with still funded a very high levels regardless of being in black and brown impoverished communities the police. These School Districts particularly touch on l. A. But they are looking to push towards a lot of the deep on the Police Narrative because theyre seeing how many billions are thrown to policing districts at the behest of the School Districts that are begging for dollars or basic Things Technology books that are up to date theyre begging for you know these that they have around coping 19 were talking reducing classroom sizes you can only do that if you have a space that is a bailable for you to have enough classrooms for reducing from 2535 students to 12 and many places just dont you know its really incredible to me when you talk about the l. A. Teachers and zest one of the if not the biggest Teachers Union in the country and the fact that theyre saying hey were on the police the fact they introduce like hey we want to wealth tax like that that speaks volumes about where. You know obviously one union doesnt represent everybody but the Biggest Union saying this is where we stand thats a pretty big statement exactly and their white paper to its credit goes through great pains to talk about and point to research as to why the deep under Police Movement needs to be taken seriously. What these things could go towards in terms of more special Education Funding in terms of more teachers aid and assistance particularly looking at counsellors because what most need to recognise is that a lot of people are dying during kobe 900 and there are young people who are still going to school after the loss of their parents grandparents violence in in certain communities homelessness homelessness is a huge problem in l. A. A lot of those kids come to school and they dont have a home to go back to so theyre also looking towards relief for that thats incredible i mean more power to the Teachers Union for Standing Firm and saying no this is what we want and i hope that sets a precedent for other unions across the country to say hey look at what theyre asking its not part of the sky its actually what would potentially work to revitalize our Public School educators absolutely and with the protest movement i think that they just might be able to break through the noise so all right everybody as we go to break remember that you can also start watching the hawks on the brand new portable t. V. Which is available as you can see on all platforms right now if youve got no excuse pick it up all right coming up on our next half and i say were suborbital bernie joins us to discuss the state of security or possibly lack thereof surrounding us both in 2020 i dont want to miss those states for watchable.
