The info indication let it be an arms race based on the very Dramatic Development the only and dangerous disease. That strategy will be successful betty to kill or die you see. Greetings and salyut ation. Well hello hello hello and welcome back everyone to a brand new week of hawk watching and my goodness is the august news cycle started off with a bang a quite literal and deeply tragic bang for the people of lebanon over 200. 00 souls and counting of lost their lives to an Ammonium Nitrate explosion in the port of beirut in the aftermath and fall out of this tragedy the peers to be the dire results of government negligence ignored warnings and failed infrastructure it is now being reported that the lebanese government is resigning amid all of the outrage over the blast there resigning meanwhile here in the land of milk and honey in coded leaders of the United States of america are still deadlocked in the goshi ations negotiations over how little they should have to spend on the care and safety of u. S. Citizens in a time of pandemic and how much they can funnel to special Interest Groups and corporate bailouts instead of u. S. Citizens but thankfully over the weekend u. S. President donald trump finally took action from his underground bunker on the 9th hole of the Trump National golf club in bedminster new jersey from up on high the president signed a series of executive orders and proclamations that well according to the hill extend Unemployment Benefits suspend payroll tax. Is an offer praed rule of diction and Student Loan Relief well woohoo this is wonderful this is great great new. Kind of really you see despite all the legitimacy a ball room full of Golf Club Members brings you many legal experts and news outlets are questioning whether trumps executive orders are actually constitutionally legal the New York Times is reporting that it was not clear what authority mr trump had to act on his own on the measures or what immediate effect if any they would have given that given that congress controls federal spending even the wall street journal got in on the game their Editorial Board chimed in writing mr trump is commandeering the power of the purse that the constitution reserves for congress. So my friends while lebanese leaders are resigning in shame for their failure to protect their citizens from tragedy u. S. Leaders are governing from golf resorts while brandishing Election Year bandaids for an empire in collapse. I think thats a good place to start watching the hawks. If you want to go on a city u. Street you want to. See the prices you always state see. Graves see this sleaze systemic deception is complete show which. Brings up the old as. Well grammar and watching the hawks. And im well well well let me look at this brand new slate of executive orders dont really know if they really will amount to anything but lets dive in and see what theyre all about show. Its interesting because republicans these executive orders that trump did over the weekend are getting kind of attacked from all sides even republican sides republican senator ben say its so nebraska he called them the pen and phone theory of executive lawmaking called it unconstitutional. Slop but its a pretty hefty thing to mount and i think that one of the most interesting things that you point out is that trump is taking fire from both sides on this because congress doesnt like being overstepped. So you have people on the democratic side a lot of house members who are taking trump to task but you also have a lot of republican senators who feel as though they are no longer part of the conversation what trump has done in this and i think that you point to some interesting things here. Hes using this to basically circumvent congress and congressional powers but also i think to bolster this authoritarianism that he personally believes that he thinks that the buck stops with him and hes fine with doing that this is the same president who when obama was in office talked over and over again tweeted over and over again about his use of executive powers about him signing so many executive orders and how much of a problem it was and now were seeing him do actually more than what obama did and he is trying to make sure that. He basically sizes things up for this election he knew that it was going to take a long time for anything to get through congress the deliberations were not anywhere where people expected them to be and i think that he is using this to say ok well maybe im doing something for the American People even though that something is outside of his powers something of the group forget about executive you know executive orders there and theyre not laws theyre not passed by congress theyre not things that every citizen has to obey or every u. S. Business has to but in truth theyre really just for Government Employees at the end of the day theyre really just like heres the president s kind of idea of the direction the government is going to go in but and that does eventually filter out the citizens but theyre not like theyre going to get in trouble lets say with the ticktock ban thats a private company a bigger that way its not like you can ban ticktock its absolutely ridiculous but 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 on the mir is there. Is a great advertising hes a great marker of himself and i think that hes selling things that the general public doesnt understand no one of his new orders allows employees that make less than 104000 dollars thats the majority of america to delay their payroll tax until january he no january is obviously act after election day but to do that you also have a massive bill postelection trying doesnt care of until it was already over you know these are the 1st payments being rental you do have to pay them exactly but his argument is he can change the federal laws to make those those into a permanent tax cut that would permit tax cut only happens if he were elected and the payroll tax funds would come directly from Social Security and medicare and jump has been wanting to pull away from payroll taxes since before he got elected he doesnt believe in Social Security 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 dollars a week which isnt the 600. 00 extra that were getting were we were getting but now the 400. 00 extra that would come in for. On employment it 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. 00 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 isnt and at the end of the day weve got to get away from this executive order obsession because look at the Bush Administration start at the start of the obama ramped up hugely in his administration and now trumps like clearly taking 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 but 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 ship they reversed 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. 00 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 allow states 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 bed is what you always hear whenever people talk about whether they want to wear a mask or whether this is going to have in my individual liberty my individual 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 where its 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 have been thousands of people who have traveled to take pictures and part of the being which as a chicago i dont understand the fascination with bend 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 this is then you get like the 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 and 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 kind of ask you 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 and 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 seems to 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 like the Legal Process for vaccines because mandatory vaccines because this all goes back to as you mentioned 1905 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 back but now we have a vaccine no one really gives it off and 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 vaccine 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 janetta 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 if and when they want to mandate anything and you know we could avoid mandating back seems 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 pete thats all it takes i know all right as were going to break remember that you can also start watching dogs on the man do the brand new portable t. V. Which is available on all platforms coming up we look at the 70 but then of course 3 of the Nuclear Bombings of nagasaki year olds and hiroshima as well as the future of Nuclear Power proliferation state to watch in the. No shots. Actually. Strike no threats to. Which your thirst for action. Here we talk about all those crazy problems out there and then during the Summer Solutions thats right so lucians and today were going to be talking with the nose of coin floor. 75 years ago the United States of america became the 1st nation in history to unleash Nuclear Weapons. When towards the very end of world war 2 the u. S. Dropped not one but 2 Nuclear Bombs on the japanese cities of nagasaki together these 2 weapons killed an estimated 226000. 00 people and left the world reeling not just in the shock and awe of the technology in power as many mainstream historical outlets would have you believe but in the pure horror of how the shortly and devastating these weapons truly are and how very easily they could bring about the end of the day end of days for all mankind this horror was at gold on the 75th anniversary of the bombings by the mayor of nagasaki while giving a peace declaration warning the world that after years and years of disarmament following the collapse of the soviet union the United States russia and other nations may once again be on a path towards Nuclear Weapon proliferation in no small part thanks to the recent this of dissolution of the intermediate range Nuclear Forces treaty and other agreements like it so what does our 21st century look like when its threatened by the 20th centurys most dangerous weapons joining us now to discuss the 75th anniversary of the dropping the atomic bombs on
