Here is a nice. A great wall that nobody builds last better than me believe and ill build a very inexpensive like a great great wall. And just in case youre worried about whos going to pay for it mexico will pay for. It well see what happens who knows those who knows it will see on the field it will be success. Greetings and sal you taishan yes any addict will tell you at a certain point the excuses you shroud yourself in to justify your bad behavior and not having to face the truth your nature of benchley those excuses dried up they are called out brought into the light and you can no longer hide from the truth of iraq. And that my friends is most certainly the case this week as 2 examples of the United States gover. An addiction to institutional cruelty and torture are making headlines the 1st comes in a new draft report on the office of Inspector General for the u. S. Department of justice which reveals that former u. S. Attorney general Jeff Sessions Deputy Attorney general in russia gate hashtag resistance hero rosenstein and other top d. O. J. Epistles were dry were the driving force behind and for some of the trumpet administrations family separation policy and pressured officials who spoke out to go along with prosecuting parents of children as young as infants. In fact the 2 year inquiry into the controversial and barbaric tactics of separating undocumented immigrant parents from their children along the u. S. Southern border even alleges that Jeff Sessions directly told u. S. Attorneys prosecuting these immigrants that quote we need to take away children. Caitlin dickerson the immigration reporter for the New York Times called out the official lies surrounding this story over the years tweeting 1st to the department of Homeland Security said mass separations werent happening they said the documents my sources provided were fake then they said separations were an unintended consequence when in fact they were always the point. Years later the i. G. Confirms again the truth. And speaking of barbaric practices let us now jump over to the great state of oklahoma where according to charges filed on monday Oklahoma County jail detention officers took a page out of the old one tom obey torture playbook and physically chained incarcerated people to walls and forced them to listen to the popular kids song baby shark audio loop at extremely high volumes over and over and over again for hours on end. Is this the United States we were taught about in schools when we were growing up when then wantonly terrorized as families whose only crime was crossing an imaginary line one who tortures prisoners for what laughs at the end of the day. These arent the actions of a just criminal Justice System no my friends these are the actions of a system run by cowards and addicts high on cruelty which means its time to start watching the hawks. She wants whats going on a city the streets want to. Undersell see see that this is joyce state and see. Grace see this sleaze systemic deception is to late show which. Some things youll. Welcome everyone to watch in the dark so i am heartbroken at times. So im sorry but at the end of the day i dont think you can excuse both these actions theyre indicative of bigger problems than me in the current criminal Justice System and department of justice in general but at the end of the day this is cruelty no one can argue with that its wanton cruelty whether it be against prisoners or as i said the family is crossing into an imaginary line that we said they shouldnt cross and youre absolutely correct when it comes to what were seeing happen in the sensually concentration camps with a child separations the original argument tried to. Make this less of a big deal make it less of something that was actually written into the process is from jump what we now know is that this was the process to begin with this administration from the beginning wanted to make sure that they were being as detrimental as possible as a form of a deterrent and really to stop undocumented immigrants from seeking not only asylum but also from seeking safety in this country in general and to acknowledge that youre absolutely fine taking children away from their parents regardless of how young those children are and we saw many of those young kids actually have to defend themselves in front of in front of courts if 3 or 4 years old this is just the monster tiddly horrible and it shows us what this nation feels or at least what the trumpet ministration feels about under. Im an immigrant because this was going on long before i got here he just turned up the heat sensually you know no one can say that this is like this particular truck problem this was an obama problem too its a me it just goes back to a very simple problem that we were nation founded on immigrants at the end of the big i mean tragically were nation from immigrants or a nation brought on slavery cant get around either of those 2 things were doing our best to try to solve the issues that still exist today from slavery are not doing good enough now were attacking immigrants which i again say is absolutely ridiculous that you know. The government spin on this i want to read you this quote alexa vance a spokeswoman for the Justice Department disputed the draft report saying quote the draft report relied on for this article contains numerous factual errors and inaccuracies both the timing and misleading content of this leak raise troubling questions about the motivations of those responsible for it. Is he has more of an issue with the leak than she does the content so that in and of itself is a problem and showcases its own myriad of issues but more importantly you are right in your previous statements about this isnt well the trial separation is the new work but the fact that we needed to have comprehensive Immigration Reform decades ago is not a new argument we worked through that tried to bring that to the fold in several administrations it just so happens that there was a particular i or against immigrants specifically undocumented immigrants from latin american and Central American countries as well as mexico that President Trump has that we have not seen from administrations past and hes in him and his administration are utilizing this to the fullest to really draw down on some of what i would consider the most disgusting humanitarian crisis weve ever seen and the sad thing is that those people who go home each day after separating these families and all the other orrible things weve heard come out of those those concentration camps where theyre putting these you know these undocumented immigrants they go home to families every day they go home to someone and what how do you justify that oh guess what i separated some kids. Oh guess what i love this happened a lot of the great of this person today and speaking of that we moved to oklahoma where here you have these 2 you know early twentys something. Jailors the sun surely torturing incarcerated people and its sickening. I dont care how cute the song is or what kind of laughs you get from it from the headlines but at the end of the day this is this is disgusting this is what its if this gusting its pressure rating i would like to say that it is not commonplace but we know that torture exists in our prisons in our jails across this country and in many cases theyve never become any type of Headline News and a large part because people on the ground people who are outside of the prison system dont really feel like they need to dip into protect people who are prisoners and i think that for that reason you see guards and you see wardens get away with doing things to prisoners who are largely american citizens in this country that you dont see that they would not get away with it these people werent locked up one quick thing those 2 is the remember when the torture came out initially we went after the whistleblowers who brought torture to our attention that was taking place at guantanamo the around the world and i do remember that phrase we need to look forward not back which was an obama phrase which i think comes back to haunt us because if you dont hold people accountable thats when you see it filter in starting to happen to everyday people not just the terrorists overseas exactly. Their view images characters or iconic figures more prominent than the rodent with a penchant for laughs and good hearted fun making maps but even mickey cant find much to smile about these days with colbert 19 wiping out the Tourism Industry disney world and the Magic Kingdom have become a deserted wasteland in floridas highway 192. 00 just outside of disney world when the theme park took a major downturn decoded so did the areas around that that rely on the Tourism Industry to survive. The once bustling hotels that burst at the seams with tourists eager to take their kids to see the famous mouse are now home to home with people who have no place else to turn and many of those Homeless People are former disney employees and tourism supports that disney closed its theme park on march 16th in response to the pandemic though its since been reopened tourists just arent coming back the lack of interest in the theme park has created an avalanche of poverty as many workers who relied on disney books no longer have stable jobs motel owners have slashed prices to near nothing in order to rent their rooms out to the new found almost population anthony a single father and former chef in the tourist hub of kissimmee florida told daily mail quote im living paycheck to paycheck i cant even save 100. 00 we cant get tourist to come in and out so it limits the hours we can work and unfortunately because i was the highest paid at the restaurant where i work i was the 1st to get cut. Another hurdle for those in kissimmee in the surrounding area is that there is not a single homeless shelter in the city not one just decrepit hotels trapped without a sign of hope in sight many residents feel like theyre living in 3rd world countries one resident rhodes just seen oak spoke with the Washington Post saying quote the economy just keeps going up up up and the minimum wage is staying the same so how do they expect people to be able to pay their rent and pay for their car. Thats why more people are ending up in these hotels theres not enough resources out there to help us be able to help ourselves. You know i feel like this story is a metaphor for the United States as a whole in light of everything that weve seen happen in 2020 when you think about it were the business of the world and because we based all of we put all our eggs in the Service Industry basket and entertainment basket but now we cant make that because covert comes out and knocks it to her feet you see the entire country come tumbling down and revealed for what it is something a place that doesnt pay their workers or treat their workers with respect and dignity disneyland the United States you know you can go on and on with that metaphor you know youre exactly correct because i think that there is this is a mirror image a dichotomy thats going on right now with the Tourism Industry and america writ large because everyone in there momma could have predicted that the Tourism Industry would be the 1st to fall with cope at 191. 00 because the travel industry was going to fall but also because these industries are based off of a lot of crowds being in a place at once that just was not possible due to the spread of the virus so even when disney world in the Magic Kingdom reopened again nobody was coming back like they are they are now less than 10 percent capacity of what they usually see with that being said that population that is served by kissimmee and disney world and its counterparts is largely people who work at the resort but also people who are resorts supports that so the people who own hotels near the resort the people who are chefs at the resort cleaning people people who do have these types of support jobs when the tourism stopped so did their hours so their companies dried up their businesses ended up going under now those folks dont really have anywhere to turn and the covert 1000. 00 relief package had nothing for them you know and that again shows you that as we know from those covert 19 relief package as you know they bailed out probably companies that Business Owner were subsidiaries of disney as a whole not just isnt theme parks but it could be a Business Company but its incredible. Well when you when you see this amount of suffering and it really chills you to the bone when you hear people say i dont have a job working maybe you know paid to the paycheck dont even have one 100. 00 mark but at the end of the day i feel like im living in a 3rd world country but that alone should teach school here in the United States and around the world that something has to be done we have to turn this country around and i dont know if we get that done when i dont think were good were not going to nor i dont think this is joe biden this were talking about long term change needed in order flip the ship around now i agree with you i feel like specifically in this case when you have an area that is largely a tourism base and there is no other industry they are highly dependent on this turning back around but in the meantime they are waiting for some type of initiative from the government there is nothing left for them there is no homeless shelter within their area they are relying solely on hotels and hotels that arent free by the way so theyre paying the little bit of money that they currently have to make sure that theres a roof over their heads for them and their children meanwhile not knowing when or if they will have a job any time and that goes back to a lot of our infrastructure and our medical industry issues and the fact that we have a city without any any form of homeless shelter and how cruel is that at no Point City Council down there or anybody ngo anyone could step forward and say hey you know what we have major issues with the homeless and florida has had issues with homeless for a long time this isnt something new just with code has been double triple exactly and i think that right now there is such a pool and trying to figure out when is the Tourism Industry going to come back but there is no real way of knowing we can talk about there being a vaccine but we also know that you know america has a lot of anti baxters out there and they also have people who are anti baxters but are questioning the pace at which this back in the middle east one of those to be coming along and even with the vaccine their parents if i was a parent heck i would not be willing to take a kid anyplace right now and knowing that there may be that risk there were seeing what President Trump is doing in the white house we dont know how many people might be infected at any given. And the rates in florida are going up daily you cannot base an entire economy on entertainment alone let me say like a bad thats got to be the lesson we walk away from this not only for the United States not metaphor started earlier but also for you know these towns of host these big you cant just be dependent on tourism and entertainment you have to have Something Else there otherwise its going to happen over and over again we also have to remember that florida has some of the worst Unemployment Benefits of any state in the country good point good out on right there all right as we go to break remember that you can also start watching the hawks on demand with a brand new portable t.

Housing is once again in the spotlight across america from calls to present in mortgage payments in the wake of 19 to substantive changes in Public Housing<\/a> where we lay our heads is the top agenda item just in time for the u. S. President ial election philadelphia pennsylvania just might be ground 0 in the housing mess with protests over Police Brutality<\/a> civil rights and Economic Conditions<\/a> reaching their boiling point activists arent reducing the pressure in may 100 people in camp a lot that at the sight of a new 52000000. 00 Development Project<\/a> they distributed food and supplies while calling for Racial Justice<\/a> particularly focusing on the permanent and pervasive need for housing of the citys more than 5000. 00 homeless residents and it looks like the Pressure Campaign<\/a> worked organizers recently announced that they reached a tentative agreement with the city and Philadelphia Housing Authority<\/a> the 371000000. 00 agency that controls the citys Public Housing<\/a> the agreement would turn 50 properties over to a Community Land<\/a> trust created by some of the groups that led the housing protests like the philadelphia Housing Action<\/a>. Should the reforms be implemented in the agreement adopted this could be a massive win for housing advocates but the Philadelphia Housing Authority<\/a> is already moving to quell expectations stating quote announcement of a deal is entirely premature the encampment leaders continuing to negotiate in the media and in the room a Public Opinion<\/a> demonstrates their lack of sincerity although we remain hopeful about reaching an amicable resolution on the encampment this puts any deal in serious jeopardy there are still why the bit of infighting and low income residents are hanging in the balance joining us now is jennifer binik founder of occupy p. H. A. And cofounder of philadelphia Housing Action<\/a> welcome to another. Area. Great jennifer therof a lot packed here in philadelphia as you know has a very long and sordid history of housing insecurity and a Public Housing<\/a> arm that hasnt exactly always worked with the best interest of low income residents could you briefly explain the history and what brought housing advocates to the streets in the 1st place. Yes so that i wasnt already a little out there as what are gathered by unit what are regular units outside of the traditional causing conflict and over decades theyve allowed a lot of these units in the last that it was able to go out they dont really have the people then. Create it. Neighborhood and particularly parts of it out where we are camped on the lot is well thought out and a lot of difference there had congresspersons of the standard by units are just blighted by these units and they just sit with boards and then after they be elaborated up for them to say theyre not viable they sell them all the private developers. Of the profit of a student at the same time they are the 13030 property to Eminent Domain<\/a> right here in north south by condemning the neighborhood as blighted but they were the ones that all know that like the here in philadelphia is different than other places where like people are homeless in the Public Housing<\/a> waiting list isnt really long because they dont have places to put people its just because they let the Public Housing<\/a> empty so we started like compiling a list of all the vacant units looked like over my list of over 500. Right now which is what kind of led the housing think over is in a lot of protests around the Housing Authority<\/a> a war ask you examine the biggest question going right now and good for you guys for really standing up and trying to try to make some changes there in philadelphia but do you believe the Philadelphia Housing Authority<\/a> is actually going to implement the type of ever agreement the youve reached i mean they seem quite agitated by the way housing advocates and organizers have now put them in the spotlight especially a national spotlight. Yes i mean i think that they will follow through with the agreement because it is like a legally binding agreement so we separate agreement for the smaller because there are actually 2 encampment but out there one is across. And then the other one is under the 45. 00 a dotted borders where the. Development is going to be i think that the Housing Authority<\/a> out that statement because they like to be the 1st one to put things out there and then they bombarded us throughout the course of the process is like prematurely going to the media and then were getting my bombarded with all the wire is about something so i think that they were just taken aback that like we got there we put out the press that we presented it to get the frame to the way that they wanted program. For you who are like that is not far. And do you think that there are any aspects of the agreement that are controversial or you know are going to be a stickler point for the Housing Authority<\/a> or will be things will be difficult for them to reach consensus on considering how fast this is moving at this point. Yeah i mean i think that theyve been saying is that what were asking them to do makes sense for them and us i mean their Public Housing<\/a> authority. That if theyre not going to take care of the unit that of selling them the developer theyre just letting them right then it makes sense so allow Community Groups<\/a> to be able to utilize those base of those low Income Housing<\/a> and go with the housing crisis in the city the real issue is that theyre able to make a lot of money off of those units and theres a lot of relationships that are kind of formed with developers and then they get the power over the unity this is a lot of stuff with the Electoral College<\/a> here in the city but i think that theres nothing that says that and what were asking for that to like the probable. It has been a rather sell the property to make money. I want to ask you and the other important thing is to follow up you know who manager whos going to manage and check that the employer the implementation arm of this agreement as you know the devil lies in the employer implementation and in agreement with our Quality Controls<\/a> and a party that monitors its execution rarely achieves what is agreed to in the groom and so what will you guys be doing to make sure that this agreement that youve made isnt here to go on in the future. Oh yeah i mean i am pretty sure they know theyre were going to be really on top of it and where now i want to have a problem bringing the e if they fall back on the agreement thats why we required it to be. Legal the sadly will be binding sign a written agreement thats why we made it public so theyre going to have like a lot of my spanking a lot of the popular on the agreement one of the organizers in attorney no i mean were just going to be on them were going to be really on them every minute of every day and make sure that ate a lot of their part and if they dont there will be only x. Is there will be able to i am in the corner so we kind of have it in a place where my baby have to own up on the agreement and i dont they know that we have the capacity and we will do the same thing again we dont have a problem for people to their home or wherever we have. Let me ask you this is a lot of people out there across this country there are fighting for housing and fighting for Public Housing<\/a> got a little bit about a minute left what do you recommend you know that you saw work were in philadelphia that could work for other activists around the country in terms of you know fighting to keep people in their homes or get Public Housing<\/a> in their city.
