A 7 day period jamie these negotiations are ongoing i value your opinion is this war going to end in your opinion. But seriously. No its about it though this this. So its been 18 years 2 more years this war gets a gold watch yeah. Its. Its amazing its going to keep go to this war is going to get there so security payments before it and. Its you know were on report were in a permanent war footing the United States and because the media is funded by the military Industrial Complex and infiltrated by the cia we never we dont ever talk about it so people dont think its as big of a problem as it is well and weve already talked about on this show how theyre now sending. This the mercenaries to fight this war so on paper it might look like were ending the war making a deal with the taliban but behind the scenes we may have mercenaries just going to do what the American Government is saying its not doing thats exactly right i mean i wish we would call them mercenaries we call them contractors like theyre going over to put in a new kitchen. Instead of what theyre actually doing is going over to kill poor brown people so we can steal their Natural Resources and we really need to end this war more than 150000 people have died in this conflict since 2001 and of course thats just according to researchers the u. S. Government doesnt really keep tabs on Something Like this weve also spent nearly one trillion dollars on this war yes but. 150000 of those arent americans those are 150000 afghans and it reminds me of that scene from the godfather where the they caught the senator when but he killed a prostitute and this guy called this woman doesnt have any family it doesnt nobodys going to miss her and thats how i feel about these people and thats what you know the United States military and our media is basically saying these that these people dont really they dont really d count you know really matter dont worry about it and thats exactly whats happening in a trillion dollars whats a trillion dollars here a trillion dollars there they just cut trillion dollars from our tax code right they just gave it to billionaires and millionaires another trillion dollars like that so a trillion dollars in afghanistan a trillion dollars to the rich people who cares you know our empire is about to fail anyway but we cant find money for health care no no weve. As the Term Administration considers winding down the war in afghanistan its been eyeing a new theater for a potential war in the middle east youre on war with the Islamic Republic would be absolutely catastrophic there for some members of congress are now pushing back the senate has just approved it a bipartisan resolution aimed at limiting president Donald Trumps authority to engage in military action against iran without congressional approval the bill was sponsored by democratic senator tim kaine from virginia who says the resolution is not directed toward President Trump but toward any president take a listen to the resolution before the body today is about congress reclaiming its rightful role in decisions about war the resolution is Pretty Simple we should not be a war with iran and Less Congress votes to authorize such a war. While the president does and must always have the ability to defend the United States from imminent attack the executive power to initiate or stops there at least 8 republicans have joined the democrats in support of the bill which passed 55. 00 to 45. 00 however President Trump is expected to veto the war powers resolution even so congress could override the president with a 2 thirds vote in each chamber so it looks like some republican senators have a spine here and theyre actually challenging trump on Foreign Policy and standing up for congresss constitutional right to declare war but of course they still back him as president and with republicans controlling the senate terms probably going to get his way what do you think about congress potentially giving up their own rights you know the republicans are basically potentially passing these broad powers to the next president which could be a democrat right well i think its adorable that theyre doing this is pretending to actually push back against the United States empire theyre not doing that this is for show they know this isnt going to go anywhere it doesnt have any teeth and again they didnt care when barack obama did it theyre always for more war so whatever this is this is political theater trump is going to veto this its not going to have any tea if theyre not going to get 2 thirds to override it and again this is all show again we live in what eisenhower warned us against the undue influence of the military Industrial Complex and if they they want the president to have this ability to do wage war at a whim and they want it because thats what their donors want was their donor class its raytheon ok its wall street so here we are again and again they are talking about iran having Nuclear Weapons even though on paper you know irans never officially sought them but the United States israel and saudi arabia keep arguing that iran is. Secretly trying to get these weapons i dont see anybody in the media talking about since 2003 however on Supreme Leader stated that Nuclear Weapons are forbidden under islam and their Current Nuclear program is villian its being watched by the International Community nobody seems to be talking about this well i mean it was obvious that it was the United States that pulled out of the nuclear deal out of the 1st place right i mean this is because. You know my personal theory was that he was beaten down so much by russia gate in the Intelligence Community he just rolled over righties like all right put john bolton in my cabinet ill do put Elliot Abrams in there be more bellicose with everybody ill do a strike in iran i mean you know these politicians can act like they dont want him to do that they can also act like they dont want him to do what hes doing in yemen or his relationship with saudi arabia but let me tell you that those same politicians who are yelling about his relationship with saudi arabia would yell even louder if he stopped it they would. And other news the eviction crisis in america continues to worsen according to the latest available data an estimated 2300000 americans were evicted in 2016 thats one even action every 4 minutes increasing a vixen rates coincide with rising rents and housing prices nearly half of all americans spend more than 30 percent of their income on housing across the nation many people who face eviction old less than 600. 00 while the issue is prevalent across the country i want to give you one example if action rates in north North CharlestonSouth Carolina reached the highest in the country at 16. 5 percent of all renters the problem is so persistent that in places like here in california Homeless People are now finding paid work jobs delivering eviction notices to poor tenants talk about the irony here yet well people dont realize that some estimates between 40 and 60 percent of Homeless People at. We have jobs and are working and i just try to you dont one in 5 children in america lives in poverty and i always like to say what do you call a system that takes the richest country the face of the earth has ever seen renders one of its 5 children in poverty and 50 percent of the Country Living in low income or poverty and 80 percent of workers living paycheck to paycheck this is a failed system right so and you know and they wont even give us Bernie SandersBernie Sanders who does not want to up in the system all Bernie Sanders wants to do is implement a few breaks on the brutalities of capitalism write some social programs that they have and other capitalist countries and they wont even allow them to do that by the way we have the social programs here were just not expanding on that thats right we already have medicaid and medicare yes well what exactly but also countries which we fund militarily like israel they have to have it they take their money and they put it towards Medicine Health care is bad and they take our tax dollars and put it towards bombs that kill people so were funding it will will Fund Anything if its a bomb but we wont help people get him looking terrible they decrease a persons credit score which makes it even harder for them to find another place in the future right this is something that in many cities the legal system actually favors landlords and tenants and even know what their legal rights are so oftentimes theyre giving things up that that really wouldnt hold up in court just because theyre unaware of how the system works well i you know obviously you know the. The real estate people always have control of the local city governments and they can and so whats happened in california is that they got rid of rent control and that was back in like night its some crazy rule that any building built after 1995 you cant have rank and its so theyre trying to reinstitute that and thats is definitely needed in california is rent control also people dont talk about Foreign Investment right so theres lots of houses there just sitting at. Especially in Los Angeles Downtown l. A. Especially so again nobodys addressing these problems why because the money all goes the other way the Biggest Issue here is just rising inequality in this country you know the poor are getting poorer they have nowhere to go there are fewer Affordable Housing units and so many people theyre just not earning a living wage and that combined with criminalizing poverty and homelessness has really created the perfect a recipe for misery which by the way Foreign Tourists have come to places like San Francisco and theyre calling it street misery when they see Homeless People and theyre saying its been probably dont want to go to San Francisco anymore right well hes put it this way if they say estimated it cost 21. 00 an hour roughly the wage to be able to afford a 2 bedroom apartment right so thats a problem for you and your kid right or kids or whatever and whats the federal minimum wage 7. 25 thats a big disparity right there so again our our our social policy is not catching up with the reality of the housing cost the United States rent has gone up since 1995 the median rent has gone up 70 percent since 1905 and what are we doing were instituting policies that exacerbate that like get rid of rent control game the oligarchs are running that ship and this is what were left with were left with chromes and sadly its not just the mentally ill or drug addicted on the streets anymore its also families single moms teachers and College Students new federal data also reveals that a Record Number of Public School students have experienced homelessness at some point in the 20172018 school year that was at least 1500000 students thats up 15 percent from the Previous Year so this problem is just getting worse and worse you know maybe if those kids were going to school or how to build bombs there would be enough money to say quito does it care of them and give them health care and what have you and maybe a home. I dont get is this. At some point. Theres going to be enough of these people and they have been enough they have nothing left to lose that theyre going to put on the yellow vests and theyre going to shut capitalism down and theres going to be some real reckoning i think i mean that has to happen at some point and we may see that after the election fingers crossed i think either way were going to see that either way were going to see yes right because a Bernie Sanders becomes president you will see the tired Political Class including the Democratic Party unite against him and so hes going to need people in the streets to back his just to get health care that hes going to get people in the streets theyre not going to give it to us just because we vote for it right. Its time for a break when we return jimmy sits down with documentarian pal about dion to talk about her journey across America Teaching citizens about their migration history through d. N. A. Testing will be right back. In this community there are people who believe that its ok to suffer actually its really hard there are no jobs and you see that ive got kids and. And as a parent. I can come up with lots of arguments theres a lot of conflict in the game between the 2 most of the conflict i would say revolves around money and most of them money has made. Us want to know each other. Each other this could be just the state of california make 6000000000. 00 a year of prison complex just to get some point in your life where. You dont care anymore no i cares about you so you dont care mind anything. As the election cycle rages on the media highlights or even invents what they deem to be important even radical what they dont tell you is how the Political Center is collapsing in Todays Campaign is what voters think about the status quo. Your government and our government and all the other major governments of the world know whats going to them and when its going to. But they havent told you and they havent told me they havent announced. Imagine something as big as the earth. Is going to cause tidal waves earthquakes volcanoes erupt and its going to chill. So very for a while right. My great grandfathers. Nobody would care about the law or prison so youd have wallace those should have. A turtle between them and the. Im just the. One to. Watch. The world according to a gesture it. Gets today is Award Winning actress and producer how the on she joins us now to discuss her latest documentary i am migration in the film paula travels across the u. S. To help americans discover their migration history through d. N. A. Testing now all your documentary expect it expands on a one minute video you posted on social media that received over 17. Views in one week can you describe the view for people who havent see that yeah i was very curious to know about my heritage and i wanted to talk about immigration in a positive light so i said ok lets see what i come from so i took a d. N. A. Test and i discovered that my in the cities are from 10 different parts of the world which is a very mixed. Bag 30 percent from the Iberian Peninsula 29 percent native american from Central America 20 percent greek and then there is irish scandinavian polynesian a little bit of part of the world saw that at the end of the video we have a message just. Gratian in my point was to show that i am who i am because all my magneto history and the us as humans thats who we are we migrate so what are the 1st things you see in the film is that migration is a universal part of the life on earth you can explain exactly what you mean yeah i mean migration its in the animals is the human condition birds migrate whales migrate its in our nature and sometimes if its not in our d. N. A. To migrate when there is a Climate Change which is happening right now its forcing us to migrate so we migrate in search of a better life of prosperity for our kids and generation so its natural in the human being and in the nature to migrate that we want to go to mars you know we are explorers by nature so i think that wanting to stop that migration its its goes against our human nature. Now you took a very specific route across america in an r. V. The one taken during westward expansion what was your experience what were the people like along this route was it very diverse was it mainly one kind of people there were very difficult it was a very mix i think the most diverse city we saw was patterson new jersey its like a melting pot its like a microcosm of new york almost because for example i think 60 percent of the population he sees panic 28. 00 African American 9 percent white and then 3 percent asian and so on is. Also the 2nd largest Muslim Population in the United States there is a difference languages speak it in their classrooms so that was a melting pot and you go from neighborhood to neighborhood and you see like change in like street pocket to pocket but they all get along in a beautiful way so that was one of the most they verse now what did people say before you gave them the d. N. A. Test and they have a pretty good idea of where they thought they came from and how many of them are accurate yes they always have an idea because you know Famil
