And sal you take. As ive stated before sometimes it takes a life or death crisis to reveal someones true colors especially when it comes to our political leaders take Us Senate LeaderMitch Mcconnell who this week showed us just once again how little he cares about the plight of the American People on a recent Conference Call with House Republicans discussing the you know the latest 3 trillion dollar code 19 relief package politico is now reporting that the corporate job will himself promise that beefed up Unemployment Benefits and acted earlier this spring will not be in the next bill and the mcconnell said that republicans are going to quote clean up the democrats crazy policy that is paying people more to remain unemployed than they would earn if they went back to work in other words promising but the Unemployment Benefits keeping millions upon millions upon millions of u. S. Citizens afloat during these times of crisis will be no more by the end of july essentially forcing you back into the low paying workforce to face the distinct possibility of death by coded breather you and your loved ones thank you bitch but fear not because mitch did reveal that he has some heart left in that in that in that husky calls a body his heart is just not for you according to Common Dreams on that same phone call mcconnell continued advocating aggressively for the inclusion of corporate Liability Protection in the next stimulus package in order to quote shield corporations from legal responsibility for workers who contract code 19 while on the job so. Basically the plan is to financially starve you in the back into your low paying jobs of adventure and servitude but if you can then get sick and die from being forced back to work you cannot legally hold the company you work for accountable financially or legally. Or you or your family members well being welcome my friends to the real new world order of the United Corporations of america and their boot licking political sycophants Like Senate Majority leader Mitch Mcconnell i would start watching the hawks. On a city street you want to. See the prices you always state see. Graves see this least systemic deception is complete show which. Brings up your. Welcome im only watching the hawks argument i robot and im a nice across. Lots of true colors being shown this week. We want to take away your unemployment sends you back into work and you have no Legal Recourse if you get sick just work work work and if you die well you know so be it. Out i want to say that obviously aggravated by it but im not necessarily surprised that it happened the pressure ation here is that a lot of individuals who will be faced with going back to work and not having any recourse are also individuals who dont have sick days and whose offices dont provide them any type of Health Insurance benefits so were talking about your you know your Restaurant Owners or many of those that are closed down both bar where thinking about a lot of the a lot of the barber shops and things like that these are typically lower wage workers anyway and now theyre going to be thrust into a system where theres really no way out for them no there isnt because if you cut those Unemployment Benefits benefits were be. Taking away someones would be like docking someones pay like 50. 00 or 75 percent there once you take that away and thats ridiculous to me its like in a time of crisis we should be helping the American People we should be trying to set up and countries around the world should be doing this and many are you know ive always said 2. 00 to 3000. 00 a month full coverage on health care you know plus on rent and mortgage and things like that and people dont want to believe that thats possible well guess what most European Countries are able to do that most other countries around the world are able to do that for their citizens were like last when it comes to actually providing any financial help during this crisis for the common folks for america to have always may consider the nation to follow this is one of those issues of many but definitely beyond where we continue to fall behind and they say that because youre right the majority of the belle of the world has bigger doubt a way not only to work through this crisis where their citizens are getting monthly monthly flight plans their citizens are getting Housing Assistance a lot of things are happening to be able to kind of ease the blow of 1000 america is basically telling its workers its bigger now we need her tales to get back to the office but you know whos not whos definitely not feeling the blow of cold 19 apparently the billionaires in a new analysis released by americans for tax paranoia say im the institute for policy studies of all places titled its called tale of 2 strikes as billionaires again as workers feel pandemic pain and they found that between march 18th and march and may 19th the number of u. S. Citizens piling for unemployment increased about 38600000 over the same 2 months the wealth of the United States billionaires has surged 40434000000000 an increase of teen. Thats a massive number i mean we even recently found out was that the kanye became a billionaire during the corona crisis and he wanted to remind you of just how many billions he had once one magazine reported incorrectly off by 3000000000. 00 the most interesting part about this is that there are always people who. Going to make money off a crisis and right now were seeing that the billionaire class has taken off so it doesnt matter whats happening with the crushing of the middle class the way deep poverty that were seeing across this country and the children and families that are living in it the billionaire class seems to always keep going even amidst one of the most disastrous things that need seen in recent years in this country we saw david geffen right at the start of the lockdown of the state home orders to do that wonderful little instagram shot from his big oh yeah in the middle of the ocean i mean when they ask this like to have sympathy for them its hard to its hard to but lets and you know the next time you see like the walton family. Has been the torrijos lately which youve got about a 48 percent rise in his wealth during the last 2 months theyre always out there tweeting like oh we need freedom and we need to open up the economy and all this well you know you guys are suffering but you guys you know why you want the economy i mean theyre making so much money its insane that they then would want to feed people to the to the grill you know feed people to the meat where again that is covert 19 the other interesting thing to note the corporate europe observatory is now reporting that corporations arent just fighting to put you back to work theyre also now looking at being able to sue governments around the world for any lockdown orders or any covert 19 response that kept them from getting profits i was that see i found that aspect completely and raging because there are protections for the corporations and we see those being created almost on a daily basis theyre not going to go under theyre not going to have any theyre not going to take any real blows but for the workers themselves if you are to go back and you are to fall ill and asked to go with kobe 1000 it does not matter there is nothing that you can do not only to protect yourself but also in terms of a recourse should a business open before they have before they have all the steps in place to open safely its crazy i mean the corporations are using this kind of little known system that goes by the acronym. Its investor state dispute settlement and. When you have basically trade agreements between Different Countries the corporations get this backdoor loophole the observatory ports the quote in written alerts and webinars law firms are pointing their multinational clients to investment agreements vast protections for Foreign Investors as a tool to seek relief and or compensation for any losses resulting from these state measures this is absolutely disgusting and i hope that we dont see corporations suing because governments were trying to keep their population safe. All right everybody after seeing their season and playoffs cut short things to cope with 19 many and be a fans have had to turn to n. B. A. 2 k videogame you tubers like click productions to keep them virtually entertained but that doesnt mean that there isnt any n. B. A. News worth covering in fact probably thanks to the virus rooting the distraction of the playoffs were guarding and being or n. B. A. Owner tom gotos whose portfolio not only includes the Detroit Pistons but also apparently makes significant money get this off the Prison Industrial Complex joining us now with the stories are to america sports producer regina gina thank you as always there when our bad news every time i cover like well you have done wrong in the sports world today because i feel bad talking about this because its not like michigan and detroit hasnt had enough problems in recent days lets add to it. Detroit prisons or in some gores is a billionaire who owns a sports team so you know normally nothing else really matters were gores gets his money from a Company Called what is it secure technologies many of these guys and many of those incarcerated are after you know secure technologies provides a phone service to Something Like 3400 person get wrecked about 1200000 inmates have access to that so who are the guy you know hes the best he is worth about 5700000000. 00 and yet part of that class you talk about that down after about getting thick because of tests all the time and so. He makes his money through Platinum Equity theres a 40. 00 Company Portfolio and securest technologies is under that umbrella and its actually one of the biggest money makers for him so what happens is in prisons prisoners do make a wage it is not a livable wage by any stretch of the imagination and so when they make a phone call using curious technologies they are charging exorbitant fee offered sometimes of 20000000. 00 sorry excuse me 20. 00 or 1015 minute phone call theyre not making that kind of money in prison so that other you get his money hes been touted as wonderful guy by bloomberg which i would take that with a grain of salt but hes been touted as helping the city of detroit recover hes a pioneer for calling capron it of all people but the hope obviously is hes trying to promote im this good guy image gave money off of africanamericans hispanics in prison. Which is the one of the things that happen it is fighting against so how can you be in favor of someone like this who makes money off of the suffering and sometimes false imprisonment of africanamericans hispanics and then you know say oh i totally support this guy im behind his reasoning its its illogical it is pretty logical absolutely i like that you point those things out because it shows that you know there are 2 sides of the coin that is of course and it this point i dont think that hes somebody who can stand by Collin Kaepernick or anyone who is fighting against criminal Justice Reform when hes the one whos profiting off of it so that in he is also profiting beyond just the jail system in the prison system in terms of the phone calls he has been to his company has been awarded nearly 800000000 in contracts from customs and Border Patrol so hes actually making money hand over fist because of trumps push to get people out of this country exactly and thats the shocking part is that this is a sports owner we like i mean obvious for its owners they have make their money from other places just in the sports and we all know that its a common factor but when you look and you pull away that veil and you pull away that shield as the time with no sports now allows us to do youre seeing these guys arent as great you know you have mark cuban as Dallas Mavericks he is a rare example im sure he has them now. Great things in his past as well but hes a great example of how to be a bennett a champion for not only his team but also his workers hes one of those people paying his workers during this furlough during the time there is no support is a great thing i dont think gore is doing that start and now if he was hes going with money of that he it was a blood money is not blood money but it is youre getting that money off the backs of people who are suffering then as a sports owner you want to maybe take a step back and look a lot of people on my team as an n. B. A. Owner are black i am now getting money not only from prisons where there is a lot of effort here in population im also getting from customs and Border Patrol which has been questionable lately for what they do with Illegal Immigrants and its almost time set back if youre a shareholder in a sports team do you want to look and i want to be associated with this they were going to layer to me i was once a money because were looking at whats happening in the prisons there are a lot of people dying and being mistreated every day and we know that those who have been taken into custody at customs and Border Patrol also are dying we have those numbers so i would definitely say that do you think the government Organizations Team owner should be able to have this type of relationship with the government organizations where they are profiting significantly off of our taxpayer dollars and government institutions thats a good question too because theyre also the ones who go to the government say please build a store stadiums over the l. A. Lakers actually get some that protection money from the government. They give that but they still got it bad part of the problem youre seeing sports organizations like this is a tough time for everybody we understand were all suffering financially but to be able to be like you know i mean over the government for help here not you and then have owners who preach i am a champion of my people you know im champions of our fans of our players some of who are hispanic africanamerican nonwhite players and you get money from government that pretty much dont align with what youre preaching is hypocrisy and they should be taken to task for it well i mean hopefully. He sees the you know when you see the news reports like this i mean this is pretty you know it was about yahoo and other major publications and news like hopefully you will see. That and the pushback against that from the community if that happens and the n. F. L. Players coalition oh yes not forget about that too yeah i did forget about the n. F. L. Players but we have to get absorbed run out of time will get in the n. F. L. Next we know that theyre bad news for next oh i know i know n. F. L. Is not doing good either but.
