Transcripts For RT Watching The Hawks 20240712 : vimarsana.c

600000000 may sound like this massive number for many in flint that doesnt even begin to compensate for the losses and anguish they have suffered as flint resident maccie awakes who since 2014 has faced 22. 00 miscarriages of 2 separate sets of twins she told the daily beast the damage is done its reversible ive lost 4 babies that no amount of money can compensate me for. Accountability decency compassion these are the things money cannot buy us politics but they are exactly what you can do for your country only if we start watching the hawks. On a cd. Player so you. See this is this your state. Great city displays systemic dissent says so which. Brings up the old. Welcome everyone watching the hard. Drive of the. So many its pretty incredible i want to start i want to start and throw this quote to choose from Michigan State attorney general dana nestle whos a democrat ran as a democrat she told the media after completing this settlement she told the media quote healing flint will take a long time but our ongoing efforts and todays settlement announcement are important steps in helping all of us move forward 600000000. 00 a lot of money im glad to see the settlement but can. The city of flint truly move forward given the sins that the state committed against them absolutely not and even though 600000000 sounds like a lot of money in theory you cant put a price tag on what has happened to the citizens of plant were talking long long term effects were talking young kids who have lost their teeth were talking people who now have read. But tory issues were talking people who now have 8 the intestinal issues were talking about generations ongoing that are going to have some Serious Problems when it comes to their development if they live at all so its it bothers me when its talked about in media and not necessarily here but i have heard it in several news cycles that this is some amazingly great thing yes you want to make sure that people are compensated but there is no compensation for what happened in flint and we know that there is a extreme amount of culpability with both the city and the state who knew long before anyone got sick that this was what the potential was and where it was going to happen but i mean when you look back at what happened its you know they basically the government so they were going to switch from detroits water system and start sucking up out of the river now if anyone pays any attention to rivers in this country theyre not the cleanest of water sources and to me the reason they did it is that estimated that you know theyd save about 5000000 dollars and so then have to turn around 600000000 which i agree with you its great that they did it but lets remember the state bar that they had to reach a settlement meaning that there was negotiations meaning the meaning that someone was pushing back and trying to save these people had nothing to do with their water being poisoned this is purely hey we need to save a buck how can we do that what does that say about the state of our infrastructure in the state of the mines in office when now 6 years later theyre still fighting to give us a settlement out to people that you screwed over it says that we dont care about poor black people the reason why we solve it was an area that got that level of disrespect that level of deficit you know unconcerned about the population is because these are largely low income black people i set it and worked at the u. S. Environmental Protection Agency region which covers all of the midwestern states at the time we knew what was happening in the reports went out it was said that you know they did not want to push the state because the state was pushing back the state knew exactly what was going to happen this was before the crisis even occurred up to 5 you. Years before the crisis occurred we knew what the water was looking like we knew the damage it would cause they just didnt care and thats the thing that gets me why you know maybe your experience there is that would help with this but like to me its like isnt the duty of someone in a position to isnt it their duty to say you know what we have to push back these are peoples lives like that to me that Decision Making is insane just because the state pushes back is of lawyers were talking it would be and you would be exactly correct if you e. P. A. Did also have in Historical Context some relationships with these private Sector Companies as well i think we have to remember that and the administrator at the time had been removed because the Obama Administration knew that that was a fireball but again it was something that both knew long before there was any action taken on that always comes back to that that revolving door were going to go work for this corporation then we come in oh i got tired so theres we dont want to be that bad. Just ugly ugly ugly ugly but you know things were good in 600000000 but they should get a lot more hope that that money actually sees the citizens of flint doesnt just get bottled up and rotate. The ongoing discrimination against latinos across america has never been more evident from family separation and unsanitary conditions that immigrant Detention Centers to rolling back Health Care Protections and essentially throwing a phylum law into a bonfire there seems to be no into the Trump Administrations abuse of immigrants asylum laws in america were designed to protect immigrants who literally are running to save their lives in war torn region to many cases as well as to protect themselves against ongoing abuses like gun and gang warfare sex crimes and other atrocities for women whose last resort is to find comfort for them and their Young Children in a foreign land where their unwanted its a better fate than theyd surely have should they remain in their native lands and just when you thought matters couldnt get any worse but need a backdrop of a Global Pandemic the trumpet ministration is restricting work permits for Asylum Seekers this impressive. That move would ultimately leave them destitute without homes or food customarily Asylum Seekers apply for work permits and are granted those permits to cover their basic necessities like food and housing because theyre not eligible for government assistance programs most Asylum Seekers are young women with children the trip administrations move isnt shocking considering theyve implemented and propose over a dozen policies restricting eligibility for asylum in the u. S. But considering the threat of covert 19 mounting deaths and infection rates there couldnt be a worse time to leave Asylum Seekers with no options but the chip ministration defends the changes to asylum laws by arguing that the long standing policies encourage illegal border crossings and allow migrants to misuse humanitarian aid. There is absolutely no evidence of a silent broad just like theres none for a mass voter fraud but a little thing like backs doesnt stop trump or his Justice Department thats complicit in a race in black and brown immigrants those powerful would you see it all laid out the way you just laid that out because i think its i think its very true and you know the thing that always gets me with these you know especially on the right is they always have this thing of like well its you know theyre a silent secret but theyll be lazy that want to live off the system theyre immigrants but theyre going to be lazy but then you put so many blockades in front of them to actually get a job to actually contribute to society but then you get mad when they dont have you know when theyre not just boggles my mind our asylum law wasnt perfect before and i would argue it took a very long time for anybody to get approved much less actually be able to get jobs during this process but these protections are fundamental part of the American Society in trying to reach justice for people who are literally running to save their lives the majority of them having small children along the way this isnt necessarily something that we have seen in the past the conservatives have always tried to you know strip immigrants certain rights in this country but they have typically kept their hands off of Asylum Seekers they were a special protected class and what we see with the Trump Administration is that theyve basically put the lid on all of that and thrown their whole anti immigrant sentiment in with Asylum Seekers as well it seems to me this upsets me because the ive never been a fan in my life because i cant see the humanity of being an isolationist you know look i get it that theres a lot of issues with globalization that are detrimental to a lot of people within our own country and other countries around the world and theres certain limits you want to put on that in terms of keeping jobs at home and things like that and corporations you know trying to milk box from you know low rent workers and overseas and things like that but at the end of the day you still have to have an open heart when someone comes to your shore saying hey im trying to seek asylum for this kind of persecution but its why we have was the. Liberty thats what america was founded upon in principle obviously there was a lot of other things going on but in principle it was like hey well take all these people women and we want to be that melting pot this goes directly against that it absolutely does i think thats a great point to make and one of the reasons why this story is making particular news is because of the backdrop of 1000 so youre talking about not allowing people to have their basic necessities met by getting these jobs which meant the majority of them are low wage jobs anyway so they would be barely scraping by even with them however once you remove that there is no safety net for these individuals at all so were talking about a population that is going to be homeless were talking about a population that wont be able to feed their children and we already have american citizens who are going through this and cope at 19 is only making those situations worse as well and lets also not forget that unless youre a native american. You came here seeking a. Native american or brought here against your will and through slavery you came here seeking asylum you came here seeking opportunity and lesser of those 2 groups i just mentioned earlier that serious jury is Asylum Seekers and immigration and your i have 2 percent correct because that is how we became the melting pot nation that we are people were leaving their countries fleeing religious persecution freeing persecution on multiple levels and coming here for this land that was supposed to be of opportunity to help them build and grow and now were seemingly punishing people for the exact same thing that made america what america is today there is a dream and its not been a Perfect Dream its never been a pervert dream but there is a dream of what the potential of the United States could be and we lived up to in any kind of real fashion if even before i mean look trumps kind of exposed a lot that was kind of already going under the surface as hes exposed a lot of the corruption criminality and downright just meaningless its a meanness to say were going to deny Asylum Seekers aboard best just mean i think of the it absolutely is and what were seeing with this is this in a long process theyre going to have to wait up to a year to get their application approved and after that year theyre going to have to wait another 9 months to see whether or not theyll be able to even be eligible for jobs once theyre here that is almost a year and thats over a year and a half of trying to figure out what to do with your life and you have Young Children in tow it couldnt be a sadder or more detrimental you know place to be especially if youre persecuted person if youre coming here because youre under persecution and now you have to add more years on the waiting where youre trying to escape from or what waiting in an Ice Detention Center how fun its so disgusting oh all right everybody as we go to break over there you can also start watching the hawks on demand for the brand new portable t.

Some up or 2 plus years of political posturing manufactured photo ops and 20 person panel after 20 person panel on c. N. N. We are now finally in the homestretch of the run for the white house here in the United States of america and it has been convention fever these last few weeks my friends well both the libertarian and the green party is a fascinating online conventions this year with the libertarians actually breaking their own partys Glass Ceiling and nominating their 1st female president jill candidate joe jordan it was of course the 2 Party Dictatorships Convention Circus acts that were getting all of the headlines starting. With Trump Campaign Senior Adviser Kimberly Guilfoyle rousing battle cry to an empty room. Dream. Your empty room all about yelling to nobody in the room and of course who can forget last weeks powerful endorsement of joe biden by former secretary of state colin powell the gravity of this moment. Is matched by the gravity of the threat that iraqs weapons of mass destruction pose to the world let me now turn to those Deadly Weapons programs and describe why they are real and present dangers to the region and to the world powerful argument by bob cohen joining us today to discuss the political Convention Circus acts that on the road to election day and here in the u. S. Is the host of productive tonight the one and only lead camp lee thank you as always for joining us. Tyrrell good to see you again believe this years Democratic National convention featured progressive socialist leftist luminaries like former Ohio Governor john k. Search and former Hewlett Packard c. E. O. Meg whitman and as i mentioned before the progressive luminary that is former secretary of state colin powell we what does this say about the state of the Democratic Party when some of their biggest guest speakers are well. Republicans. But well i think its just beautiful tyrrell to see the 2 parties getting along like this you know they they agree on so my people act like theyre at each others throats or theres some kind of battle here but you know if you look at the the 1st of all the republicans showing up at the d. N. C. But on top of that if you look at the stuff thats not being mentioned at both conventions because apparently it doesnt need discussing and meaning both parties agree on it well thats a lot of the core issues of this country you know like largest surveillance state in the world never really mentioned corporations buying elections not talked about anymore are endless wars are really disguised a 1000 military bases around the world not just because pentagon failed its audit cool with that wall street run wild environmental collapse capitalism apparently doesnt have any flaws i mean if you look at what they agree on really its great to see him coming together im just a big fans of coombe aiyar moment truly thats true but that was a great brag that only and 8 i am going to go dig a little bit deeper into that that big tent and what that actually means that no you cover it someone your show as well there are many who would argue that in order to win against trump in november you need to bring in a blue disaffected Republican Voters by allowing prominent neocon figures like colin powell and bill kristol under the tent and accepting pap money from the antitrust republican pundit project the Lincoln Project one of the dangers that you think are inherent in these kinds of actions where the Democratic Party
