Immigrants for i. D. Theft and later in the show trucks been boasting about his new u. S. In c. A trade deal but a major loophole gives american oil and gas firms a leg up when doing business of all dont go anywhere americas war starts right now. Wall street is in party mode now that joe biden is the front runner in the democratic race because they know that if he gets the nomination they have nothing to worry about do they fear and that ferran cousins from trial lawyer magazine to talk about this whats your take on this it was like party on wall street there they were popping champagne corks and this you know it was just so obvious that they love this guy because they know hes not going to change anything for right right we we went through days and days of just the stock market tang. In king because of covert 19 and then suddenly joe biden 1st gets the endorsements from club a charm booted judge and at that point the Health Care Stocks on monday of last week took off super tuesday happens market opens wins day to a huge rally and these investors the economist they all say its because of bidens victories and some of them some of them who run the financial houses out there actually said this happened because joe biden is not going to change things he is not going to regulate us he is not going to tax us we know that with joe biden theres a big payday around the ok we saw it if you think back we saw it with obama when course clinton bill clinton invented this whole wall street relationship remember he came out and said look them accredits cant win unless we start this love affair with wall street from that point on consumers started getting hammered really bad under obama wed like to think will that change it didnt change the reason they like obama was the same reason they like this guy the same reason they like it already what what theyre really saying is their term is hes middle of the road what that really means is hes not going to change anything hes going to get us let us get away with the same scams weve always gotten away with theres not going to be any regulation nobody goes to prison when they come in with a white collar criminals. When they when they engage in the worst conduct we saw that with eric holder he just let them all go whats your take where does it go now that bonds of kind of a front runner for the democrats honestly its really terrifying if we get to a general election that biden versus trump wall street has nothing to worry about you know the wealthy elite have nothing to worry about because they know that whoever wins at that point their lives dont change the regulations dont change the rules dont change and theyre all set but Bernie Sanders and his. Supporters understand that and they saw all these rallies they knew why it happened there have been tons of articles in just the last week about why it is and theyre out there doing their best trying to warn people that this is not ok if something makes wall street you know the defense contractors their stocks went up if their stocks are going up you should be concerned because that doesnt end well for the American Public we know what that means yet there are kind of a question there are kind of equating burning to the coronavirus you know thats really what they were doing is this awful person is going to make hes going to change life on wall street which is in effect he was he was going to make it tougher for wall street to commit crime the new report shows that drug cost of risen more than 3. 00 times faster than inflation for the past decade and so far consumers arent getting any relief is not in the better it is not going to give a better under biden who we just talked about nothing really changes but these numbers frankly are pretty startling i mean i weve been doing these stories a long time right and weve been talking about inflation area aspect of drugs and but this this is this is gone crazy 159 percent 159 percent when you can when you take the inflation rate compared to Everything Else that comparison is pretty ugly right i mean even if we werent already paying in some instances 20000. 00 times more in a markup now we have to deal with 159 percent increase over that of in like one other material just a 2nd i think people that just heard that number thought that was an exaggeration really fair and 20 yes yes the number is 20000 we are senate we actually have documents we do have some drugs that are 200000 other centers mark up on those 20000 honestly thats a middle of the road number we typically see between 10 and about 30 or 40000 percent markup between cost to make and sale to. And so you had to just to put that in perspective but this number here is its not only that the 160 percent above inflation is horrible because it is but even when you take the low income people who have the rebates they get the coupons they get medicine for next to nothing their costs still increased by 60 percent more than inflation so even when youre on these rebate programs and you are paying less than others because youre you know financially unable to pay the full price they want to charge you youre still getting gal just at the pharmaceutical account let me let me talk about some here just a 2nd the viewers dont understand ok they think that this is uniquely one party that is pumping up the pharmaceutical industry let them get away with absolute murder absolute murder. But the truth is its by its bipartisan isnt it we saw we saw a cory booker who was a president ial candidate we saw we saw a chance of all things coming from trump trump said you know why why cant we just import drugs and take advantage of drugs that come out of canada and it looked like it was going to pass and like at the rat last minute cory booker goes around and he put 16 democrats together and they defeated now that ridiculous argument we dont know that the canadian drugs are as good as ours that was really their argument ok so talk about that because people dont get it its is a democrat issue just like its a republican issue thats why they love biden being a contender right now well you know Drug Companies are pretty smart with their money when they buy off politicians they are slightly more republican with it but by one or 2 percent they typically spread money evenly so that way no matter who wins they win and thats what happened with cory booker hes from new jersey a lot of drugs are manufactured in new jersey that those are his people thats who he represents and thats who hes going to take care of and thats why he did this but you know to say that we dont know canada is testing their drugs like we do we dont test anymore no we dont test nor do we hold the Drug Companies responsible when they screw up and create a defective drug that kills people they at least do that in canada a major online retailers like amazon could soon be held legally liable for selling counterfeit goods on their website now ok this story struck me this way when it comes to money issues that Congress Says oh my god we have counterfeiting going on and we have wall streeters that are losing money because of counterfeiting and so we need to hold these counterfeiters responsible they say that even at the same time that we let them sell pharmaceutical narcotics killing people all of the cunt. Without any regulations we we the Human Trafficking is that im a halt all time high on the Internet Congress takes no action there give me your take on this on this was very interesting because obviously the internet is still the wild west when in terms of regulations theres nothing really there policing much of anything and honestly the counterfeiters are a huge problem and you have these sellers like amazon who are letting people buy all these counterfeit goods from other countries with the you know very lax regulation that allowed here and so yeah that hurts american businesses but of all the things to go ahead and tackle with the internet you start with the one to say oh my god corporations are losing money lets help them know we have people who are having their data their location stolen from them and sold to the highest bidder and thats ok right are we doing nothing about any of that as you said nothing about Human Trafficking or opioids or any of the other criminal activity happening on the internet but god forbid corporations are losing a couple of dollars here and there because somebody wants to buy a knockoff watch yeah and sprays and actually as they go forward with this this legislation is a good its good legislate is i mean im glad theyre doing it but for them to say this is more important right this is a lot more important than what the Tech Companies are doing to us where theyre invading our lives theyre taking everything we own as far as our identity unit and then theyre selling it the sum to somebody else and you know congress as well thats ok this is america thats good capitalism but were comes to counterfeiting Something Like you know some of the stuff theyre califate ing it is serious i mean theyve got theyve got some some types of vitamins that are counterfeited the formula they be forming that thats true they they need to do something about that but they need to handle this in a way that we can look at and say you know theyre kind of doing this with an even hand theyre holding the Tech Companies responsible for all the bad. Things that theyre responsible for right now right and what we need honestly at this point we need a new Government Agency we need somebody in a department overlooking the internet these days thats what needs to happen we need to have broad regulations not just to make sure the internet is being fair but to also protect the companies as well youve got to take care of them but there is so much happening so much that congress is over looking for them to prioritize the profits of these companies and its because they give them money for their campaigns it really kind of stings a bit as a consumer because ive had my data stolen you know and nobody nobody is doing anything about that fair and cousins thank you for joining us will continue all of these stories because they get weirder almost every week i do one coming up the u. S. Supreme court has overturned the kansas decision which would allow state courts to prosecute undocumented immigrants for using aliases and fake Social Security numbers when they apply for jobs that more when we come back facing. Humanity is on the edge of a precipice thanks to continuing destruction of the natural. You just seem laid out a lot of good results a group of reporters and lets hear from native. Plants that. List the members. Of the new earth who thinks. That over for failure. Or that. Doesnt mean dealing. With the same google books. And stuff and shit them see that. Human activity has brought us to the brink of the will 6th major extinction of it and the people in this film just dont take it in. This crisis the question was ben and jay powell over there its Federal Reserve and the central bankers and flavor reflate are pumped up. Quick enough to hurt any downdraft in the stock market i know economically thats got a lot of problems associated with that but thats the big question. The u. S. Supreme court has overturned a kansas ruling involving the prosecution of undocumented immigrants using false Social Security numbers when they apply for work this is going to open the door for states to more aggressively crack down on immigration were joined now by alan or Vice President of the American Immigration Lawyers Association an all round very small very smart lawyer has done a lot to help america help immigrants all over this country allan how d are you well thanks for having me. 1st of all could you tell us a little bit about kansas you know what the way i understand this is its a preemption what we would call a fight on a preemption issue which is the the what what is the relationship between a states right versus the federal preemptive right to preemptive orders thats kind of what this is coming down to isnt that right exactly its coming down to federalism and an understanding of who enforces Immigration Laws is it a federal issue or is it a state issue and when there is written contacts with and federal statutes with regards to what form information on that form can be used for can states use it for Something Else that is specifically what it sort of narrows down to so kansas look we have the right to criminally prosecute if we have laws that put these to say that this particular person did something wrong yes were familiar with the fact that the feds have some involvement in this arena but we havent lost our right under in what we call Health Safety in welfare protection of our citizens to do what we wanted to do so what theyve done is theyve said to immigrants what what are they saying immigrants right and so i think its a far stretch and to just talk about the facts of the case specifically in this case these 3 individuals were pulled over for a Traffic Violation so it wasnt an od a procedure at a company to see if the check in the Company Documents what the what the government can do at any level which is sort of relegated to the federal government and then they sort of went and found these documents and then they added on this charge and people being here undocumented is a simple violation right something and in most states when you volleyed an identity it is a felony so it is a work around to give states the ability to sort of enforce some type of Immigration Law because charging them with that felony would make them automatically deportable. So what we have here is we have its kind of a bonanza to go after immigrants on issues like you know i use this this id because i needed work i need to use a i do use a Social Security number because i needed a job to support my family and theyre saying well you shouldnt be here to begin with so were going to use this element of violating the law really is a reason to send you back to where you came from of until this ruling how has Work Authorizations for undocumented immigrants been handled by our court system up until the time that this kansas case has been tested by the Supreme Court right so this case is specifically about the form so generally the local state and force my officers would not use and i nonform to enforce some kind of state rules such as the sort of Identity Fraud rules it would only be the federal government that would come in either through an audit or through some kind of enforcement action to sort of get these documents and sort through them for the company. You know allan as i look at this here in america you know youre dealing with on the law of the time constitutional all the time and we talked about on this program sometimes when a state aggressively goes after the argument to say look we respect the federal government we know you have your rules but we have our rules too and our constitution our state constitution says above all things where it comes to the states right we have a right to protect Health Safety and welfare now what im saying what im saying is a pattern im saying the Supreme Court this is this is a series of immigration cases that were seeing right now in the Supreme Court is saying yes youre right state you have this right under Health Safety and welfare protection it seems to be expanding doesnt it you know well if you see in these immigration cases as youve already said theres a number of them and theyre all 54 which falls along political lines but sort of tells you that immigration has now become a political football but in this specific case what they did was theyve also expanded the scope of an employers liability under the same rules so now the employer that takes that information and knowingly provide that to that state on some other form right knowingly doing so is also now involved in this sort of Identity Fraud you know scheme and therefore should also be subject to these federal penalties so i think thats the undergirding from the legal analysis of how it sort of follows that i dont think they sort of thought in this case what they saw in this case was now were going to be able to get these immigrants and be able to deport them quickly and to sort of get them a felony crime because once again i want to state that the underlying document issue here has a deeper penalty than actually coming to the United States without documents one is civil the other is federal. Ellen of interviewed you before and i remember my last interview you said that as we expect to see conservative courts are going to further enable the not only federal government but theyre going to able the state governments to figure out ways to say you shouldnt be here you came here illegally and now were going to find ways to turn all that around this is one of those things your statement i think last time we talked is we expect to see this expanding more and more at the state level and at the federal level you see that is is whats unfolding here absolutely our problem is immigration is relegated to a federal issue and for whatever reason our congress is broken right the senate has not moved on any bills from the immigration they havent worked on immigration in 20 years either party right so this becomes a football and it goes to the states to sort of now sort of say were going to do what we want to do here which then makes greater disparity because these foreign nationals that are in one state that are in forcing it in other states arent are just going to move to the other state would in fact we both know its someones using someone elses so security line that it is not a hate crime in that sense because basically what theyre doing its paying taxes for someone else to get benefits for in the future. Yeah let me make a prediction somebodys going to be smart and smart enough to raise the Commerce Clause here somewhere in this argument but well talk about that another day alan or thanks thanks for being out there on behalf of people who need your help thank you for having me creating the new north American Free trade agreement is indeed corporate arbitration for most industries but loopholes give major concessions to the u. S. Energy sector arties regime those joins me to talk about this story regime. We started talking about t p p couple years ago didnt we united a couple segments on t p p and the thing that you raise the some of the issues you raised are exactly coming to roost here right now you talked about the i s d s problem which is this is that under the under the t. P. P under nafta under caf you had Foreign Corporations that were able to boss us around according to our laws they could come in here and say you cant enforce environmental cases because it affects our business or you cant enforce safety cases of any current pharmaceutical name it because it affects our sales so youre right there pick it up what can what can you tell me about this new trade pact and how it effects the future well. Yeah President Donald Trump has rebranded the north American Free trade agreement aka nafta with a new pact known as the us mexico Canada Agreement the us and ca passed with bipartisan support from Congress Democrats and republicans both cheered the gutting of nafta as controversial investor state dispute settlement clauses which empower multinational corporations to sue governments when laws threaten investor profits like you just said for example if the u. S. Were to implement new regulations expanding Environmental Health or Labor Protections canadian or Mexican Companies could then sue the American Government if those new laws undermined that companys ability to. Profit now under the same rules American Companies are also free to do the same so the new trade pact is different because its actually abandoned an investor state dispute settlements for most industries but there is now an exception for american oil and gas firms that have government contracts in mexico so u. S. Energy is really the big winner of this new north American Free trade deal. Well i mean the point is when we drill down on what the whole problem is with globalization one of it is were able you have a foreign a foreign country youve got france or wherever mexico is or wherever they come to the United States and we say to us you have affected our right to go to to come to america in cut down all of your timber you have affected our right to take our toxins and put them in your streams because youre affecting our business this is the same kind of analysis here but were giving this extra protection to the american oil and gas industry why it why is mexicos significant to this particular part of the story. Well mexico significant because International Companies now hold exploration and production rights and offshore and onshore blocks of Mexico Mexico is the number one destination believe it or not for American Gas Oil and refined product exports and before nafta only mexicos state owned Petroleum Company could operate in the countrys upstream segment but recent reforms in the last few years have actually opened the country up to more privatization and the problem is that these new trade agreement this new trade agreement locks those reforms in and makes it really hard for future mexican administrations to change their policies without the risk of being sued by the American Energy industry the whole reason these are problem is because they really impede on the sovereignty of these nations well thats the whole idea with this whole globalization though you know would you think about what you just said i mean i hope the viewers called that if if if mexico passes laws in they say to the oil industry what youre doing is hurting our people what youre doing is destroying our waterways is destroying our environment theyre not able theyre not able to push back when the oil Company Comes back in and sues them even though even though theres laws on the mexican books that say you cant do this or coburn in the oil company says those laws interfere with our right to do business no matter how horrendous the business may be my point is they were trying to do that in the United States under globalization in that were seeing that play itself out right here for those who dont know. How do investors states dispute settlement how does that harm taxpayers the most people understand how to fix taxpayers. Sure well these cases are heard outside domestic courts and private arbitration they basically create a shadow legal system for corporate polluters and criminals and their decisions cannot be appealed and when corporations when taxpayers foot the bill to cover losses on a companys. Estimated future profits ill give you an example american taxpayers once paid canada over 1000000. 00 after the us based u. S. Based Pharmaceutical Company eli lilly lost a lawsuit that it had brought against the canadian government for the countrys drug patents system were constantly told that congress is completely divided among party lines but here it is again uniting for corporate interests. Globalization is a disaster thanks for joining me with brazil lets lets lets talk about the story some more in the future ok. And love to thank him father tonight some good news apple has agreed to pay out 500000000. 00 to settle claims that theyve been intentionally slowing down older i phones to force users to purchase new phones big surprise there this practice is called planned obsolescence and its one of the major reasons users in the buying new cell phones every 2 years complaints for consumers have been pouring in for years all across the globe and apples been hit with lawsuits in both the United States and europe for slowing down i phones intentionally but i dont feel bad about that 500000000. 00 because the truth is the company pulls in from new apple i phone sales in the u.
