a bad rap these days feels too wild west and electrocution has been on the outs because the environmentalists were furious the electricity was coming from coal power plants i mean if you're going to turn a guy into a cheska bob don't use dirty energy to do it ok can we agree on that maybe he could pedal a bike that powers his own murder that's eco friendly that's a green death arrived there or just by wind turbine i'm sure if you guys got close enough to one of those things the propellers could knock his head clean off that would be totally environmentally sustainable. but actually the only reason the electric chair even became a thing was because thomas edison wanted to crush his business rival george westinghouse seriously edison refused to take nickel and tesla device that alternating current was the way to go for electricity edison decided that there was only one thing to do to prove that westinghouse alternating current generators were more dangerous than edison's direct current in order to prove his claim edison held a public executions oftentimes in front of reporters of animals such as dogs and horses at a demonstration that addison held at coney island he electrocuted and killed a circus elephant named topsy so if your teenager and you kill a dog 1 then you're a satanist and you go to juvie but edison deep fried dough. allen fent and he's in esteemed inventor. yet edison also sought to prove his wonderful new toy worked on a human convicted murderer william keller was the lucky contestant come on down after they exact him the creator of the electric chair arthur southwick which edison helped fund spoke to the crowd just as southwick announced this is the culmination of 10 years' work and study we live in a higher civilization today everyone noticed that killer was still alive welcomed a higher civilization please ignore the stench of burning hair that's also what it says outside the oval office. an yway we basically don't use the electric chair anymore now we use a highly civilized lethal injection there's only one problem we can't get our hands on the drugs to murder people because there's an e.u. export ban on the lethal injection drugs we need the countries that manufacture the drugs don't want them used for our goddamn barbaric medieval experiments in human indecency but the truthers ministration will not be detail or just these recent federal executions mark to call in the nation of a 3 year campaign to line up a secret supply chain to make and test lethal injection drugs if it is a strong sign you're an alcoholic when your friends start hiding the alcohol from you well what is it when your friends are hiding the murder of cocktails from you hey buddy don't you think you've killed enough people this way god oh no i know i know i know you can stop anytime you want i know of course i believe you but why don't you just take a break you know see see how it feels one night without killing someone you know see how that view. so apparently the administration has been working on this secret protocol since 2017 and it's designed to keep hidden who the drug suppliers and testers are but many have now been found out and in some cases even the companies involved in testing the deadly penna barbara tall said they didn't know its intended purpose all 3 firms told reuters the justice department did not hire them directly saying they were contracted by a compound in pharmacy here's a hint you might be on the wrong side of history when your government has to pretend to be someone else when contracting with chemical companies that make killer cocktails because if they found out what you were doing with the drugs they would refuse to work with you on moral grounds. however 6 making our bombs that kill innocent people overseas is not something companies hide from no they take pride in it all of the new tomahawks come out of one factory this one a 20 foot long term effects are manufactured by the reef. is one of the top missile executives and this is the final configuration before it goes out the door to a customer we have people like saudi arabia murdered children in yemen it's quite a privilege to do the lord's work. one of the companies testing trump's new murder a cocktail is called dyna labs and the co-founder michael pruitt would like you to know that your government testing murder of chemicals is really a heart warming story he said quote i'd rather know if someone i knew was going the way it was being put to death with a lethal injection i'd rather know that the injection was tested by a qualified laboratory yes if a friend of mine were being murdered i'd like to know the chemicals were really top notch spare no expense if you kill in my pouch kind of like if if i were watching my bass made being strangled i would want to be strong professional hands you know like a auto mechanic or a drummer anyway i don't have time for all the other reasons the death penalty is an idiotic barbaric flawed pointless stupid waste of human life but on the plus side at least the elephants now know who's boss. coming from washington d.c. the belle of the base is redacted and i. welcome the camp now let's take the news from behind in the middle of this pandemic when donald trump has tried to kill as many children as possible sorry sorry that's that's coming up next month so far he's just been aiming at adults well we'll get to the kid soon when we reopen all the schools and institute the free taco sharing with a sneeze guard option all listen children if you're not good enough to not die from covert 19 then maybe you shouldn't be in the advanced placement classes ok stay back with the kids learning how to make a block of wood out of a larger block of wood. speaking of sneeze guides i see people wearing those plastic masks that are like made out of a 2 liter pepsi bottle. when they sneeze in one of those does not just spray across the inside of that thing just like you like a squirrel hit the windshield of your chevy tahoe at 90 miles an hour. i guess you need some sort of like a windshield wiper on the inside of that mask i mean bending that no one steel that as mine. and the way in the middle of this pandemic trumps poll numbers are tanking and there's a lot of prisons go around but i have i have i am sick and tired of people saying that trump doesn't accomplish anything. in fact he has succeeded in some massive achievements one of the biggest just happened recently he has created a stunning and powerful partnership between nations yes trump's harsh sanctions have led to an iran china partnership china and iran have drafted a sweeping economic and security partnership according to new york times china will get a regular heavily discounted supply of iranian oil for the next 25 years as well as an expanded role in iranian banking ports railways telecommunications and myriad other projects iran and china will also increase their military cooperation said. god trump is accomplishing all kinds of stuff he's such a tank the china and iran have been forced into bed together in an awkward sticky romantic trist i honestly i love i love this story because it completely infuriates everyone from rachel maddow out of my palm peo to bill kristol to sean hannity and mitch mcconnell to nancy pelosi to chuck woolery all of the corporate psychopaths who make up the neo liberals and the neo cons are just doing themselves . whereas those of us who fall in the how do i call rational part of the spectrum we understand that we should want all countries to cooperate and work together china iran rice the us narnia the pharaoh man of wyoming all the countries coming together getting along solving problems giving suggestive back rubs not turning the atmosphere to ash and a nuclear armageddon and playing pickle ball. kind of things. of course if you really want to really want to dig down deep we can also talk about how nation states are figment of our imagination often used to control us and it takes loads of social engineering to make you think that someone in indonesia is somehow less connected to you as a human than someone in nebraska but no one wants to dig that deep because it ruins dinner parties. my point is america loses a job. where the bags anyone who was born. within certain lines on a map did no one remembers who drew them or why they got there but anyone anyone born inside their. gotcha. living on you already know that the impact of climate change are speeding up it was so hot a few days ago here in washington d.c. that i just sat down and cried i just i just sat there and cried. i was in the ice cream mile of the grocery store at the time and it was 192 degrees outside and i'm lactose intolerant so i just i just cried and i pressed my nipples up against the glass freezer door so that the ben and jerry's chunky monkey would know i still love it i still love it no matter how long we've been apart. they scored me out of the grocery store there in front of them. anyway despite the impact of our boiling planet media coverage of climate change during mag of this year as tracked by the media and climate change observatory which monitors $120.00 media sources in $56.00 countries has found a 52 percent drop compared to may of last year so this 50 percent drop in coverage was compared to last year even though last year was also all major news networks devoted less than 4 hours to climate change in 2019 total for the year they devoted more than 4 hours to the fact that jared dimples abandoned his face which can we blam them i mean i mean the devils can we when you get out of there has left years ago to along with his pride and super ego his intelligence and his moral core but that story is not more important than the fact of the earth is on fire even j.p. morgan chase the biggest funder of fossil fuels on the planet has admitted we. possibly kind of there's a chance of there a qualifier be totally. earlier this year j.p. morgan chase's economists wrote an internal report leaked to extinction rebellion stating that they cannot rule out catastrophic outcomes where human life as we know it is threatened. nothing to worry about there that's just human life as we know it so we'll have some other kind of great human life where we get to wear sweet 247 fire suits and breathe through our anus because the air at our head level will be too polluted with ash it sounds cool but i don't want to leave you without any good news and i don't consider breathing through your goodness not sure where you stand on that that's up to you know the good news is that there are still a lot of human beings around the planet who are devoting their lives to solving this problem i can about why i miss probably doesn't. challenge on when you're a climate solution scientists probably doesn't put a lot of backs on mattresses know what i mean. but yes all day every day there are people trying to save us from ourselves the latest effort to decrease the carbon in the atmosphere comes from rocks yes rocks according to smithsonian magazine by spreading rock dust over large swatches of land carbon dioxide could be trapped and transformed scrubbing it from the atmosphere if this technique called enhanced weathering were to be employed around the world scientists estimate 2000000000 tons of carbon dioxide could be removed from the atmosphere in each year you heard it here 1st spreading rocks just over fields could save us even though i was hoping they say spreading angel dust over our nasal passages was going to be the answer over rock dust even if you globally would not solve the whole problem it would only take some of the carbon out of the air so we'll have to do this enhanced weathering and stop using fossil fuels and stop throwing out plastic bottles once every 10 seconds and lock the higher ups of j.p. morgan chase in the trunk of a sedan in a sunny parking lot in nevada in august. that last one is more for fun than to save the planet but i'm down i'm down if someone has a sedan that they don't mind smelling like old roast beef for a few years. when you go to a short break but if you're watching this on you tube go get our full episode on the free streaming app portable t v we will still be putting all the jack tonight segments on you tube but the full episodes will be on portable t.v. i'll be right back with a lot more. was a pandemic no certainly no blood is just bluffing to nationalities. the summary. judgment commentary close to this system things. we can do better we should be. everyone is contributing each of our own way but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever the challenges created with the response has been so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we're in it together. sudden and illegal takeover of a government by a small group. rather than revolution result. of that small group the operations when you have a tiny people who have all the power you have to have some means to make sure the rest of us don't get together and take it back. these are sacrificing. places that capitalism exploited and destroyed for profit and left behind misery poverty environmental devastation and so you see things like voter suppression building more prisons you seem gerrymandering all sorts of undemocratic practices are well in that world are well into. question the. welcome back i'm still a camp if you've paid any attention to the trump administration you know they're anti regulation you know when it comes to vetting who sponge babies your grandma during a pandemic but despite over 55000 nursing home related deaths the white house reduced the required training hours for nursing home assistants from 75 to 8. 8 hours for more on this we go to our senior sr lover that when the bill hello ladies and call me crazy but i think the training required to take care of the elderly should take longer than watching all 3 back to the future movies now ask anyone like me who got a d.c. driver's license and they'll tell you haven't dozens of hours of training doesn't mean you're good at something everyone in virginia found that out the hard way last week when i went viral for driving on interstate 395 my god are you are you making a u. turn on the highway was an emergency and you'll be happy to know that when i got home i actually did set my d.v.r. for the new episode of this is so crisis averted just like the nursing home industry's crisis of trying to recruit workers these 75 hours of training and frankly we should be putting up barriers that anyone who actually wants to wipe my grandfather's because after the way he reacted to our family surprise birthday party for him last year i'm sure it's not doing that again any time soon i'm not fine don't. but no one wants to have a job dealing with vulnerable vulnerable population after only a few hours of training meds great. 2 job to do it all the time and get a free gun out of it not to mention more money since these workers are temporary after the pandemic and they'll still have to complete the full 75 hours of the certified so until then i think it's ok that there's no requirement to watch the required videos or download the assignments and that there's only one time to test it that means it's not even 8 hours that they're probably getting certified wall cutting their toenails ok that's not true a political reporter registered in obtained a temporary certificate using the internet to look up test answers and less than 40 minutes and if you need nearly 40 minutes to cut your toenails then maybe you need nursing home care yourself but there might be some vacancies since the trumpet. astray should not only way of training requirements but rules that made it harder to kick out residents and that forced nursing homes to maintain quarterly health reports of each resident so not only can they kick seniors but they don't have to keep track of their health during a pandemic leave leave replacing residence with covert 900 patients keeps these nursing homes alive pussys are so fragile that it's a lot easier to just say someone have cove it instead of forcing workers to file health reports that look like this front page of the new york times those are the names of the people who died and there's no point in keeping nursing homes alive if none of the people inside of them are alive the nursing home industry clearly wants to maximize profits instead of safety given the lack of p.p.a. lack of experience lack of transparency. what are you doing what are you going sorry sorry when you said p.p.a. i remembered i have to protect myself before i get out of here. you don't have a driver's license anymore i still have it this is just actually for the next time i got to make a highway you turn now now it's still a pair. every month. all right now it's time to get to some of the stories we didn't have time to get to here with me is redacted correspondent and does leave a clear thanks for being here and what it what you got well the election is approaching just a few months away november trudging along at my excitement we get to really exciting candidates one of whom joe biden just called his opponent president trump the 1st racist president in american history which is that was a shock to me i don't know if you knew this but. he's the 1st one to drop bombs on people who are similar to stand native americans on a trail of tears it was it was all trump right i was trying to thrash my head think of like honestly the 1st not racist president and i think it arguably barack obama although some military age males in some parts of the world would this agree from the advent of you know he continued our white supremacy wars there is that and our terrible prison system anyway but yeah the 1st president had owned slaves so often say we didn't start with racist presidents rights that is slim pickens for now i think james garfield probably be one he died after being in office for like 2 months or so so he had the shortest amount of racist time yet well the shortest amount with what was william henry harrison who was definitely racist but garfield was pretty cool he was shot on a monday by the way as woodrow wilson was inducted into the klan in a white house ceremony he. showed birth of the nation at the white house is this maybe biden's memories going it only goes back a few minutes while you that he was around for all this stuff so you'd think he would know about it but simone sanders is his comms director clarified that he meant like in the modern era no no races have been elected which again totally historical ronald reagan the thrust of his campaign was was dog whistling about wealth. queens and he and his 1900 can paint in philadelphia mississippi where civil rights activists had been murdered by a white mob i think we're calling the modern era the last years which means i have not my parents parents in the modern era through yes i mean there has only been one president in the modern era in that case unless you count mike pence possibly. but yes so the election is trudging along one of the contenders for vice president is kamel harris who's thought of and sort of balancing you know it created so much energy and love during her run for the presidency i can understand why yeah. when you have 3 people that are going to write all these supposedly progressive who love kamel harris would be thrilled she's post about take it she's spot of a sort of you know. a overture towards the progressive wing of the party but she voted against the sanders amendment for the. defense bill that would have cut spending on spending by 10 percent it's going to she did she's a right wing republican right still i mean it's she was somebody who was like i'm on board with single payer until it looks like i'm going to actually pass the not so much like with this i think she's wants to be considered for vice president and they don't want to take it even though you're 2020 after decades of endless wars and deeply deep on popularity of these wars they don't want a vice presidential candidate who wants to cut the military budget even though it's been going up exponentially every year but all bernie wants to do is bring it down to like a couple years ago it was like 10 with a cup is only 10 percent or 10 percent any want to reinvest that in our will in terry we spend more on the military than a $144.00 countries combined we do and a lot of that money i think we're going to be all right at war it comes we're going to be more than all right a lot of that money is going to companies that we have contracts with the. a recent report showed that there are these companies have been cited many many times for self for health and safety violations fair labor standards problems and one out of every 10 pentagon dollars is going to these companies that have all these unfair labor practices and we're just as in the guy that's really upset i would have thought that the money we dumped into our death machine would really go to the best upstanding companies yeah i guess our camouflage def dollars are going to bad places i guess so we need to put on those camouflage eye shades and really like get a war scrupulous with the numbers. and is that what thanks for having me. here are your headlines from the future on monday you'll read. justice department begins executing death row prisoners by dousing them in cali urine leaving them alone in my pump ayos office that'll do it and a week from now you'll learn trump proudly announces nation may resume trading essential workers like. progress
