When you dig into what these things you know whats what some of these executives really its you know its not what they appear to be especially movie mirrors their years ago and you know trump is a great advertiser hes a great marker of himself and i think that hes selling things that the general public doesnt understand know one of his new orders allows employees that make less than 104000. 00 thats the majority of america to delay their payroll tax until january he no january is obviously axed after election day but to do that you also have a massive bill postelection trauma doesnt care because well it was already over you know these are the 1st payments meaning rental you do have to pay them exactly but his argument is he can change the federal laws to make those part those into a permanent tax cut that will permit tax cut only happens if hes elected and the payroll tax funds will come directly from Social Security and medicare has been wanting to pull away from payroll taxes since before he got elected he doesnt believe in social. Purity or medicare and hes fine with getting them both its interesting too because the other order that he talked about thats a great great point member makes you brought up the other order of the 400. 00 a week which isnt the 600. 00 extra that were getting that were we were getting but now the 400. 00 extra that would come in federal unemployment is up to pay for that though hes going to pull from the 44000000000 in federal funds that have been set aside for Natural Disaster relief while were in the middle of Hurricane Season or about to be where experts are now predicting over 2525 named storms named storms out little ones maimed and are going to be hitting the Atlantic Coast and possibly the pacific this is not something you want to do plus states are going to chip in to as much as 100. 00 about 400. 00 as well and states are broke from fighting code they are cash strapped already there are so many states florida being one of his favorites that has only paid out 2 percent of its Unemployment Benefits already i dont know how this is going to actually be helpful for states where does the money come it really is and at the end of the day weve got to get away from this executive order obsession because look the Bush Administration started the start of the obama ramped it up hugely in his administration and now trumps like clearly taken it even further down there weve got to pull back from that because at the end of the day were not were not governed by a king or Queen Congress is there to do that we dont executive orders are being abused in you know 3 president s now and we have to start using congress when its used for yes. With covert 19 numbers surging in cities across america round about now many local leaders are faced with some tough decisions should they reverse course on the openings of Restaurants Stores nail salons and hair salons how can they ban interstate travel effectively and what will people stop having house and beach parties even with the news of rising coronavirus cases Americans Still seem to be living their best lives this summer as if the pandemic is a joke my hometown chicago seems to be fed up with the lack of vigilance tourists are taking during this time chicago is known as the jewel of the midwest for its skyline its downtown area fine dining shopping and beaches summertime shy brings thousands of tourists and more importantly poorest dollars last year alone chicago tourism record of 58000000. 00 visitors generating over 140000000. 00 in Hotel Spending alone the tourism is big bucks but with coated its also risky business. In walks the Chicago Department of Health PublicHealth Authorities shared an update this week stating officials may start checking social media profiles to collect evidence on ports this is supposedly meant to help track their behavior because many travelers post pictures and videos of their gatherings on Facebook Twitter and instagram but privacy advocates are already calling foul the American Civil Liberties union a. C. L. U. Is prepared to file a lawsuit against the city of chicago for any application of social Media Monitoring that threatens liberty and privacy. Privacy on digital platforms isnt the only issue coburn 1000 is bringing to light in the u. S. As vaccine drug makers are fighting against the clock to get a vaccine ready and on the market the big legal question is could the government requires people to get it or will people actually do their jobs if they dont get the vaccine. And the answer may startle you legal precedent dating back to 905 allows states the 40 to impose fines and other wish if a vaccine is refused this all begs the question when do individual rights and liberties outweigh Public Health. That is the question that has been on the tips of peoples tongues since the start of the pandemic that is what you always hear whenever people talk about whether they want to wear a mask or whether this is going to happen my individual liberty mine the virtual liberty its a hard question as do i think the state should be finding individuals for not getting vaccines and things like that thats a tough question to answer thats one of those ones words like well once we actually get a vaccine its good to think about it ahead of time but once we actually get it once its no longer mysterious and magical bring down the road then maybe well cross that bridge but as far as the state or city of chicago monitoring tourists what tourist whos traveling to chicago right now in the midst of all this craziness with cobra to go take pictures in front of the great lakes you would be surprised really there been thousands of people who have traveled to take pictures in front of the beam which as a chicago i dont understand the fascination with ben metal thing but ok and they are flooding the beaches as soon as the mayor reopened the beaches they were closed for the 4th of july but they opened immediately that next week more and more people showed up but then with this digital monitoring is that we see city governments and state governments try it for various things and when you open that pandoras box its hard to close it better so theres a reason why a lot of the advocates are pushing against the digital and social Media Monitoring because no one can tell we dont know how far this Data Collection is going to go and even if its said to be used in a Public Health crisis who knows how long its going to be mined or if it will affect people long term or you know what could actually happen and how does that open the door to been future abuse over things not as important as a pandemic you know well we need to monitor everyone social media because of the excesses then you get like a trickle down effect you know there has to be. Consequences for violating surveillance rules and posse and and policies in the tragedy is theres not a lot of surveillance rules to begin with you know theres not a law protecting the constitution was shredded with the patriot act when it came to light and you know for the 4th and 5th amendment so were kind of in this dark area right now where we dont really know what the rules of surveillance by our government will be and its pressure on them because social media is one of the easiest ways to surveil someone and in all honesty Companies Businesses peoples employers are already doing that without the permission of individuals themselves so i think that you know what they use it for is more of the question than whether or not theyre surveilling because were getting some every day and i mean i think thats the big question i want to come of this because it is like are we really that bad as a society that we need laws to tell us to be civil but we need laws need government watching our social media just to make sure that were not out spreading the disease but i dont think were going to a level of big brother isnt that scary because its a certain point we have to believe that the public is going to do we tell them to do people are dying there is this virus thats spreading around everywhere in order to decrease that you need to social distance that should be all that we have to tell people you know clearly it isnt so i think that you know cities and localities they are grappling with this because america unlike a lot of other nations who literally follow the rules and things that have a very hard time putting other people ahead of its head of themselves you know we were very selfish and i think the democrats kind of exposed the selfishness its interesting when you get into the Legal Process for vaccines because mandatory vaccines because this all goes back to as you mentioned 100005 which was the Supreme Court case of jacobson versus massachusetts and thats the legal precedent for mandatory vaccines through fines and loss of social access due to the spread of smallpox smallpox was no joke about but now we have a vaccine no one really gets it that often we hope states have the authority to mandate vaccines but this could create a patchwork of state. That require them but then some dont so then it becomes like well if i go to town to see i got to get the back see him but if i go to you know illinois suddenly i dont and that creates a big problem when it comes to trying to contain this leak now absolutely it would end up looking the exact same as the mass mandates and you never know where you have people in places where its absolutely mandatory for you to wear them and then you have some where its not a think that its hard when you dont have a federal mandate or you dont have states that are all on board with a Public Health crisis and were just not seeing that theyve turned this into a political football and states are choosing it and when they want to mandate anything and you know we could avoid mandating vaccines and we could avoid all of this mess or monitoring tourism social media by simply being civil to each other and wearing a mask and staying away from each other 6 peat thats all it takes a step i know all right as were going to break remember that you can also start watching dogs on the man do these brand new portable t. V.

Dollar with yes superstar alison the class of gold money god alister well. Greetings and sal you take. Well well well well well my friends we have big news today as russia has developed a possible back scene for cold with 19 reuters and other news outlets around the world now reporting russia has indeed become the 1st country to grant Regulatory Approval to a covert 19 vaccine after less than 2 months of human testing a move moscow likened to its success in the cold war era of the space race and apparently russian president Vladimir Putin is so high on the efficacy of subjects even that he had one of his own daughters take it. There is no actual word yet on a u. S. President has put obamacare tiffani on an intravenous drip of drugs a clerk queen and lysol in an effort to outdo his russian counterpart will keep you and keep you abreast of that does happen and while its back sports and political a political as well now dust off the old cold war 2. 00 debate over moscows potential vaccine on cable news channels and social media to no end the virus itself continues to flourish here in the u. S. Especially inside the walls of the United States prisons work order to analysis by the u. C. L. A. School of laws code 19 behind bars data project and john hopkins the novell coronavirus is now infecting american Prison Inmates at a rate more than 5 times higher than in the overall u. S. Population and thats climbing in fact at the Federal Correctional Institution in c. Go bill texas the federal bureau of prisons reports that more than 1300 of the approximately 1750 prisoners held there have tested positive for covert 19 these brutal statistics of lead to multiple uprisings among the incarcerated populations across the United States just last week in georgia violence broke out of where state prison where the Atlanta Journal constitution reports that quote tensions were running high due to cope with 192 people incarcerated at the prison have died of the disease while 22 inmates and 32 employees have tested positive so with covert 19 on fire inside us prisons exposing even more horrors of our Prison Industrial Complex i think thats a good place to start watching the hawks. Whats going on in a city street. There so lets see this is this joyce state says. Great city displays systemic dissent says so. Which i would so when you feel. Unwelcome everyone watching the hawks i am tyrone and i want to hear from and joining us today to discuss the state of u. S. Prisons as we get deeper into the 1st year of the covert 19 pandemic is the president of the young w. C. P. N. Georgia mr james wood all and dr andre m. Perry author and fellow with the metropolitan policy program at the Brookings Institute thank you both for coming on today. So look over probably have overcrowding lack of proper medical care or unsanitary Living Conditions were already major issues in the u. S. Prison system how is covert 19 exacerbated these existing issues dr perry your thoughts. Well if you mentioned it there were looted prisons art. That. Were its product. Areas. Are. Areas where. There are also. Areas people have little recourse and so we need to look or examine the conditions in prisons in and we need to socially distance people and create the kind of conditions that enable people to thrive and so. The short of it is that prisons are in the main places that that are conducive for virus spread and other illnesses. And james is here in washington d. C. A family of an inmate recently died from cobain while being held in North Carolina wasnt informed of his death by the bureau of prisons and to over 100 days after it occurred we talk about coping in prisons we often only focus on the guards the staff and inmates but how has this crisis affected the families and communities surrounding the u. S. Present system. Well thank you for that question and has a son a. Father who currently is serving a sentence in a Georgia State prison i have known too well what that impact does my father got colvin i can see we were not able to know really know what the status of your health was you know Legal Counsel is not able to visit these inmates we have complaints of people not even being able to get the kind of reputation it accustomed to servants. So you know this situation is exacerbated if ice is on the wire many of ways which is what between izing just i frankly just and so there must be action taken action taken now to not only save not ours but also to save them on your musical person and the prison system in this country you know has been has been damaged and broken for a long time thats why i agree with a lot of people that say you know we need to abolish the prison system as we know would rebuild it from the ground up trying to turn it into a place of reform rather than incarceration but i also want to talk about Something Else because gentlemen if we cant keep covert from spreading like wildfire and a lack in their own secure environment like a pub or a penitentiary how can we begin to expect to contain covert in our schools james i want to start. Well what we have to look at really what this disease is actually doing and i honestly believe that we have done ourselves a disservice when were not honest from a state and National Level as to what are the risk factors involved in this situation if we as a Community Programs us economy in money in commerce over the actual real lives of people who have been our communities big we can actually defeat this disease this virus and so as we as it relates to school and we talk about opening up colleges and universities we talk about opening up well probably very nursery you know what were talking. By is not the actual help of people but rather how can we keep money flowing into peoples pockets how can we keep the bottom not up in margins you are in such a basket and we dont lose billions of dollars for me economic standpoint but also i think as they are so the 1st step is actually our time he was lobbying not money but in the 2nd part of actually being make sure that people have access to resources dr perry we are what are your thoughts on that i mean the schools even stand a chance if we cant even keep covert from from turning our prisons into even worse nightmare is when they already are. Well 1st of all i want to cosign what place it be president said my father also he died in prison and i just want to be clear that the. Structural racism that actually put us in position to be in prison the Structural Racism that robs School Districts of the resources needed to protect children come from the same racist street and so no we wont be able to protect children and communities because one that the federal government have have not passed a spending bill that enables School States and School Districts to purchase the p. P. S. To socially distance in in classrooms and on buses to provide the technology so when you do have to shut down a school they can do Remote Learning and so and they not been able to get those resources to schools because they simply do not care about black people and so for me its clear that this this epidemic well have more epidemic so there are always some type of tragedy it will repeat itself time and time again until we sure are eradicate the Structural Racism that. Continues to put black people in a vulnerable position. Powerful and very sure my heart goes out to you i also lost my mom in a prison as well she died from cancer. Nearly 100000 kids 100000 kids in america have been affected with 1000 in just the last 2 weeks of july states like georgia are refusing a math mandate for students even though experts like dr anthony 1000 recommend all schools mandate universal mask wearing our schools across the United States truly ready to handle in Person Learning at this stage in the pandemic or do you think there is an alternative and that since you know we mentioned georgia ill start with you james. Well i think thats a very difficult question because one we as a community we dont need the government to tell us whats right or wrong we have a state we have a nation that has not done the right thing but we at the Community Level we know was guess what so regardless if the government mandates we get a mask or not we need to tell our people to make sure that they wear a mask thats one of the reasons why i issued an executive order myself as a state president in which all of our members all of our supporters all of our friends and family all we are massively there im public because i dont need the governor of the state of georgia to tell us what is in the best interest of our people if we are on the community in the Grassroots Level we know what it takes to say. Im done waiting for. Government officials to do was in best interest of our all in this you know for that number to save our peoples lot because were going to knock. It out there and schools are not ready. You see the schools done dont even know what day to open schools its endemic the lack of preparedness that schools and School Districts have the congress has. 5 months to prepare for this 5 months and its almost as if the pandemic occurred a few weeks ago and so intil schools have the resources to open safely and meet Safety Standards as well as educational standards they will not be ready and it was pointed out earlier that as School Students congregate in crowded spaces there are since these facilitating the spread those kids go back to their homes and spread the disease of the illness more and so kids dont live in schools they live in too munity schools are not some kind of bubble in which they are sheltered from the rest of the community and so we need to protect the community and the schools and till they are. Returned safely i would not advise a parent to send their child to a place that is simply not ready to take on on kids safely but its a great point you bring up and very quickly i just want to ask ask you both a bit at the end of all this is that what what do you believe believe coalwood has truly shown as far as the truth of the american system whether its schools or just the sort of thing you know you guys a bit more can in the trenches for a long time i mean realistically covert is it not just exposing that the idea of american exceptionalism was always a myth to begin with dr perry you can start with a little bit of time left. Yeah i was going to say that it really revealed the Structural Racism that is present in our country black people are dying at a higher rate and going to speak. Not because cove it. Attacks black people but it it attacks the conditions in which we live and those conditions words. That generations ago and theyre set every day and so racism is the preexisting condition that we need to get rid of not and not blame it on asthma or diabetes and all these other things that this Structural Racism that is making us vulnerable Structural Racism that it will destroy the resources needed to make our schools say the Structural Racism that puts black people in prison and at higher rates and and keeps them those conditions unsafe and so all this is doing is revealed playing the person issues policy that attacks black people every day in this country. And out had that it is not just you know it and im the president in the us we dont get it but its not just white people this is displaying very well in in many ways what black people have known for 20 years is that the institution the empire of America Western civilization is here does not care about its people we care is more about our work if i seem to be in actual law and so we talk about crowing about it we talk about the Unemployment Insurance benefits theyre not going to talk about us yes literally becoming bankrupt because the people that are in leadership care more about their bottom line and willing elections than actually lifting up that was how its. We have a system thats committed more to the preservation of power it seemed its a privilege its been actual peoples law in so that is reflected in racism thats reflected White Supremacy that is reflected. In the mist gets occasional the negro in so on and so what we can go down a lot. Of outside of james thats powerful stuff but i hate to cut you off got to go to break but excellent excellent stuff mr james wood on dr andrea perry thank you so much for coming on and educating our audience always a. Pleasure having you both on and the good work that you do thank you so much. All right as we go to break or that you can also still watch knocks on demand for the brand new portable t. V.
