RT Watching The Hawks July 12, 2024

Is going felt great like better than i have in a long time i said just recently better than 20 years ago dont let it dominate dont let it take over your lives yes. Take over our lives well you know what im sorry mr president but im pretty sure the families of the over 200000 u. S. Citizens who have died from this pandemic kept a pretty good reason to disagree with you but you see it wasnt just himself the dominated the President Trumps thoughts this week as he also pointed out on twitter that quote the Fake News Media refuses to discuss how good the economy and stock market including jobs of the trumpet ministration are doing we will soon be in record territory all they want to discuss is couvade 90. You know for once i agree mr president lets discuss the u. S. Economy and our friends on wall street in fact just last week the Federal Reserve released its legal latest triennial study into consumer and household by nances and according to Mint Press News the report found that quote millionaires and billionaires hold a remarkable 79. 2 percent of the United States Household Wealth and then only 11. 9 percent of american households have at least 1000000. 00 in wealth to their name only 11 only 12 percent roughly but but what about wall street us that that magical mystical place that realm of power here in the United States well truth is wall street means very little to most americans as a political political reports that the reality is that the wealthiest one percent of americans own 50 percent of the value of stocks held by individual households and the top 10 percent control 88 percent. As the late great George Carlin famously said its a big club and you aint in it remember that the next time one of these professional liars politicians like us President Donald Trump starts tweeting madly about how great the stock market is doing you see thats actually him paying fealty to his owners and lets start watching the hawks. On a cd. Player so lets see this is this joyce state. Great city this least systemic dissent says so which. Brings up. The welcome were going to watching the. Winter and im so measure wall street hey you know fresh out of the bottle whats tweets about wall street talk about our great wall street and how great is wall street to our great of the American People just love wall street and i think that your intro was right on point because we know what matters and it is wall street we know the people who invest in wall street arent the people who are crying out for help on main street every day right now we also noticed that today the president has argued that he is not going to push for a copay 1000 really bill that package of money that americans were hoping to get so that they could pay their rent make sure that they could make their electric bills and all these other thing its just not coming so i think that you know we have a stronger recognition for those who already who cares about the most and its not the everyday citizens it is those one percenters who actually are watching the stock that we day and you know they make their money yeah i mean look at a survey by the Federal Reserve this new survey showed that more than half of American Families 53 percent were invested in the stock market as of the 2nd quarter this year but that was mostly through up through really a lot of direct owners and thats mostly through retirement for a one k. Things like that thats. People out earning money on the stock thats people whose businesses or retirement plans through their businesses put their money or start more youre absolutely correct and today when you have a predominance of the American Workforce that is doing the work that means that they are not only in most cases not full time employees and they dont have benefits they also dont have a 41 k. In existence this is it 203040 years ago where people were looking to that you know part of their retirement plans and there are a lot of folks today who dont know what those retirement plans are going to look like and are dont even have enough money in their savings to consider anything related to retire because the bottom half of all earners only one 3rd earners of people with a job actually were lucky enough to have only one 3rd are actually invested in any kind of equities or stocks compared to more than 90 percent and 90 percent of families in the top 10 percent of income basically the stock market is a rich mans game and when you look at what how the pandemic has affected all of this yelp reports that the review site yelp reports that 60 percent of businesses have had to close during this pandemic Small Businesses and that are now permanently shut youre never going to get them back so guess what your big your big corporate people who got bailed out the most from congress and donald trump theyre fine every other business struggling more than 60 percent and i think thats important thing to note because it shows what congress prioritize and thats an argument for both sides i mean i lean more on the liberal side of things when i think about this that is something that democrats could have it in the house controlled more than they did what we saw was that stimulus package money the money that was supposed to bail people out in large part went to corporations in it went to the state organizations it did not go to the Small Businesses which are the engines of not only American Innovation but also employment for people across the globe and colors a big issue here you know in this in this country right now and when you look at who really has money in wall street im sorry wall street is one of the whitest streets in america when you really break it down. 18 percent of the value of stockholm by american households was held by white families compared to get this just 1. 2 percent by black families. To 1. 2 percent just point 5 percent of wall street is held by hispanic families thats a massive gap wall street is a wealthy white mans game and always has been its almost like monopoly for theo at the end of the day if youre somebody who is not in that range youre not a part of that power structure where you have a quarter of a 1000000. 00 for the most part you are not watching stop daily youre not getting your investment youre not your investment portfolio isnt that you most americans are just worried about keeping food on the table making sure there are enough cover for the next month they are not as attentive to the stock market because the stock market doesnt necessarily affect their day to day work no it does not William Spriggs a professor of economics at Howard University and the ceos chief economist of the basically said quote when the stock market goes up that exacerbates wealth inequality for blacks and for hispanics because they just dont own stocks and thats thats the honest to god truth and thats whats sad because we talk about wanting to get money into those communities stable real money into those groups but guess what this is interesting all that money that should be going to the people is going upwards as we know jeff bezos the big dogs little theyre all just sucking up the wealth of this country but thats not just true for the u. S. Thats around the world in fact a report out of scotland found that the richest 20 families have as much wealth as the bottom 30 percent about population this is a global issue that we need to start addressing now. Another day another headline of an unarmed black man being murdered by a Police Officer though 31 year old Jonathan Price lost his life on saturday lou News Coverage spoke of the murder until today because today officer sean lucas was charged with murder of course the bents that actually happened swiftly considering in most cases it takes weeks or months for an officer to be arrested and charged after a fatal shooting. Could this incident turn the tide lets dig deeper Jonathan Price was a pillar of his community a City Employee of volunteer and well known Public Servant price witnessed a fight at the local gas station and will fit in texas between a woman and a man and he intervened price was attempting to diffuse the situation and reduce any potential harm to the woman and at some point a passer by presumably called Law Enforcement but by the time theyd arrived pryce had already defused the situation. Price was truly a hero that likely prevented a complete stranger from suffering from Domestic Violence but when Police Arrived on the scene price was given anything but a heros welcome body camera footage showed Police Officer lucas tasing price even though there was no aggressive or threatening posture that would have support at that level of course price was actually walking away when he was struck by electric wave of the stun gun and after that already an unnecessary use of force the Police Officer then proceeded to shoot price in the back 3 times price was unarmed according to an official statement from the Texas Rangers with camera footage the rangers now say the preliminary investigation indicates quote the actions of officer lucas were not objectionably reasonable. Officer lucas has since been arrested and charged with murder his bond is set for 1000000. 00. Well that is a credible what were looking at with this because it just it just boggles my mind and happy to see that we might lead to i mean what do you think do you think that this is a turning point were some departments across this country are saying rather than the longer theres so rather than claim that you know were going to put it were going to charge someone with charge an officer with murder when they go over the line like this i think this case presents its own bit of difference from some of the other ones that weve seen 1st and foremost there is somebody who is still who was there on the scene who also witnessed this happen the woman who actually got involved in engaging in disrupting that fight where it looked like she was being threatened by a male but the other thing that is very interesting here is that the Texas Rangers and the Police Officers have already you know the police force has already come out because they had to the video had already been released. Showing that this man posed absolutely no threat not even for the stun gun much less him actually being shot in the back 3 times this was somebody who is technically a pillar of the community he had come in and he had tried to stop a fight which is something we would expect or at least hope for if i am is just passing by and sees that a woman is being threatened but the interesting note i want to make here was that this is the type of hero conservative tried to make rittenhouse remember the young man who decided he was going to take a gun and travel you know to a whole nother state. And wound up killing multiple people and conservatives talked about it is though he was somebody who was protecting his community and that wasnt even a community in this case this is where Jonathan Price was born and raised this is his place this is a place where he is known this is a place where he is respected he works for City Government a place where all of his neighbors know who he is he saw something he decided to do something tried to intervene and wound up losing his life well. Well its interesting when you really look like when you point that out that this was somebody who you know is well if you put all the chalk marks that you know you see a lot of times in white Media Literacy like White Conservative youre like well this person was clearly you know a bad guys so somehow they deserved to get choked out or this person had a criminal record so somehow they deserved to get you know to get shot 6 times in the back but as you point out this wasnt this guy so theres no excuse for this but why is that somebody has to have this person record to actually see charges correctly brought against the police when the record shouldnt even come into play it should be the actions of police right well by somebody you mean black people you know they dont know exactly you know translation i think that part of that is how america sees black people specifically black mean and is always having to prove themselves innocent 1st and thats not something that you know that that happens when white men are involved in this type of thing so i think that in this case were seeing quite frankly an expeditious process in him being charged this happened on saturday so just a few days later there are already charges hes already been arrested that is unheard of and police the ball shootings its i do think that thats a very important point to note i think it is a good point to note i mean i would hope that were going to see. You know because thats how many cases we see it even with body cam footage and things like that roll over and over and over and over again where its constantly like you see the police union step in and everyone then let the gears of justice just stop and roll slowly and maybe this is that i hope its a sign that like hey you know what would people shoot people who are unarmed who are trying to help people in our community that maybe we should actually hold cops accountable when they step over bounds like this absolutely and there is a Facebook Post that that price did just like 4 months ago that is now being brought to light making that its important for our viewers to see that as well in the Facebook Post price that there were times i should have been detained for speeding outstanding 5 patients out dated. Dozing off at a red light before making it to my garage Downtown Dallas after a long night i passed a sobriety test after leaving a bar while in texas by 2 white cops and they still let me drive to where i was headed and by the way they consider wiley texas to be very racist ive never got that kind of energy from the popo not saying black lives no matter but dont forget about your own or your experiences the road and waking up. So its coming to light that. It seems that price wasnt necessarily somebody who was gung ho about to be a Limb Movement he himself had necessarily experienced a lot of Police Violence or Police Interrogation in the past and felt as though he was in a Safe Community so now it is even though these times clearly pointed out by him himself and in his own words he felt as though he was treated fairly by Police Officers or may have even gotten off from some things that he might not have thought that he would have there still comes that point where you could lose your life you know theres always going to be that point where its going to be a bit wrong and i hate to say that i hate to say that but its true its like brought the point that up perfectly its like hey you might not experience these kind of on a day to day basis that you hear other people talking about that your other people marching about but that doesnt mean im going to come around and affect you at some point absolutely and i think about something we all have to remember i couldnt agree with you more couldnt agree with you more all right everybody as we go to break remember that you can also start watching the hawks on demand through the new portable t.
