Kenyon she's date basically that's why I have to tell you my already of the. Been on the show a couple of times and I've also met a couple of times socially was one of the monks kind of fantastic the figurines. He was swinging London and.

You can almost hear that fantastic Smiley's in his voice say one of the real London characters of that era died aged 81 do you remember when he had that sort of double act with Ari fella like that just fantastic love that generation and we lost Kennelly just today so they got. Life goes on and so does the show and all of that including the 2 queries which is what we're about to commence with a query from Addie in Stroud green. Good morning well that and you ready for Christmas yet oh my scanner. So tell us your query so I'll go quite Christmassy what. Happened to time with marks and section yesterday yes I listen to listen again and I would have one yesterday thank you he was talking just a guess but he didn't hear it was talking about the big Christmas stews that they used to how the factories in. Well I got it well I thought my Christmas due to I went he was actually at my aunties were like my aunt and my cousin Jane a and they were. Saying the goats Misho I'm from the I just 5 to 10 I went to my fabulous Christmas party the goats Misho It was incredible. And at the green shoots . It was quite we grew up in south east London and it was you know it's so completely different talk it was amazing and so woodland on the lake but on the base and then it coming true and that was the key change. But I learned of another one recently though I never attended services went to Cleary. So. A little while ago actually November I went c.t. You know the mail route. Yet which I haven't seen is good I did it I think I can with my brother we went round went on the little try and it was great because it's Ok. Marriages could only carry Maddow and they have been now converted into that all glass top American diet yet today if you go inland I think it's a nix frustrates me when the straight so you go in that there's news and and so I've been into that and I've been mount on the Mal Brough before and then this amazing opportunity to come out that was it's like a hit in London events so I think they're doing more next year where you can go whoa care after it's closed well with the grape v.a. So friend and I went along and it was problems 2 groups is quite you know where we subscribed just like I said it's a bit like a hit in London event but not hit Nandan and there's probably about 20 of us and our group has a 2nd guy around and we walked the loop that goes to the that the rail actually goes on out the writer would have gone from Paddington point down to more chapel but the bit that we walked went from Mount Pleasant and then you kind of coming out on the nation we are on the Xmas market and then you loop back around again as you do a fair bit. And they were expressing the you know we are talking waste questions and it could only have a hose hold mango in it in these little trains that when round except. For when that Christmas Day for the children really and apparently the children into it and they'd go round as a ride and then there was another aspect to it that stage did they go on at the platform they don't be loaded in apparently into these low carriages when the men would go in and they'd be taken around and one of the parents that were a heat source featured on one of the tunnels probably in luminous paint merely over the 12 Christmas and and that would light up spies a bit like a Christmas become strength as they went round the web and then it was what Iran will. He thinks I think he was a mention I got some donations from a film that was filmed on the touch of the hawk in the eighty's and I could use the money for not to watch Christmas Day for the children but it must have happened before and as they would come back around to take care of it the next plateau and Father Christmas but then I'm going for the Medicare so I mean it's a fantastic story but training Clark Well so we can just if anyone attended it really just anything and just briefly thinking about Christmas Day and stuff and different ones that we would all go to as children and it could have been in the seventy's I think probably moving to the 80s but they happened but just are there any children of g.p.l. Workers out there the state was particularly Mount Pleasant I don't think the parents have to work at Mt Pleasant but I think it could have been any original post office thought of this yes a g.p. I work with children did anyone ever go on a sub to write me and Christmas party is a great story on the ms Mount Pleasant and right on the on the Mio rose as a kid for Christmas and see for the an underground Father Christmas yes because the one that is quite flushing now that you get into bed is get lost on Grace but it would be a switch just meant for a while but basically said oh no is adamant no people allowed in except Christmas party let's see if we can find anybody Id What a lovely story so did you or anyone you know ever go to the Mt Pleasant subzero 1000000 Christmas parties for kids of post office workers and why don't the Mireille So that's the 1st query of the day the next one comes from Adam is down in Kent Hello Adam. Very well it is the us is a postcard query. To relay ago and now and the query a lot more at the listeners Yeah southward to say you know in years and enjoy walking around there and a guy best parliament is probably now is to always look up yet when. Those to say last say out there anyway 2 years ago in a focus a few years ago when I was up in the shortest area walking ramp a crowd I know now is street signs on a few of the road said. Just a letter unknown number and a full to myself Surely this can't be the epicenter is a Sunday a just in a. City street signs there all the side impair their white with black 18 and black black nines and name a rate lettering on it a name a star and I was in a few others west London south east London and some of these are really fine straits and Commercial Road sounds awful so strange that we would be carried along everywhere everyday life that not might be realizing they didn't have a number only on the postcards so I was a size 2 father 1st of all the queries why why Final Call number one and secondly the Nazis can we make up a method on them all stays at the center is of no faced south and west so they just would have said for example commercial road it would take them a road so that's why it won't take a walk or the word because when you say a postcard a postcard is very specific to do like a little bit of history but you may want to have the number of the our leaders correct I live in n.w. One and it would just say n.w. Or would it just siad. Table Jeff Well it was well this is discovered a come from Sassy something I see 10 and I was an illusion about 6 numbskull and I went down a side street just by chance and there it was s a n o s e no one solutions are but some of them I see no no no no no no days ones of same yet I only have the letter in one number in so se right for example I mean these particular streets some instead of a street sign is obvious traits what I have se 7 or. More interest in the same area yeah yeah so when I looked at Shoreditch cyberspace Child Line areas you know done strain is one of them. That just a on it yet you won't mind they sustain 10 minutes so long and you say there is a number in on it as well so why does it say there are no i have no idea why the some street signs just have the letters of north south east west the north and the numbers whereas others have the number of the of the postal code a reraise the query they got I don't know another is that make up the math of London where these are very interesting. That you might have to leave to self why does some street signs just have the lettering so no end for North se to se w. For West and I presume s.w. As well there must be s. W. S. . And yet others have the number of where they post Cody's that's the query that we've got met so we got to now we've got one did anyone ever go to a sub to run him Christmas party. The the so in office of Mount Pleasant and why don't the runaway. Why does some street signs only have the numbers and the next query which ties in very closely to yesterday's show comes from fuzzy and fuzzy. Yet very well indeed so this Yours is about is it the Keynesian clearly because we were talking about Dickens yesterday and now until I just. Absolutely fantastic all of the twists Stilnox and also I really like it it's weird because it was a race and they saw these miracles and yeah about 2 weeks ago you had to toss around some other I mean like. Yeah some are so fine on a minute it's just some say 94 because there's a Kasra net log out so well it's like having. But this is near It was also the 1st one. Which was there was so I guess well where all the. Wrote Well if you. Suffer for it sub base road junction of think it's me just take us to Stanford story area. So sore around that area Union Street that's a good question as well see got union straight and then go all quite Guilford So you got that junction he got union straight and quite Guilford Street yet which is a Tony Roche I was under 'd a bridge over and. Over I was as you know quite tall in a. And yes so this this this is this is on the junction of Guilford and the big I'm looking at it now it's a big black and white mirror and it looks like it's the only for a huge character is yes. It is absolutely yeah. That is one of only very good one of all over 8 named reply because it's a story so it's one of only to read in the vault of sight and then there's another one is there. Yet the other one is. As fightin an elf. And they must be the same because the white is the White Pine said you know the color is exactly the same. So the cruelty from a is you know. First of all you know them seen before so I've around a lot around the area but the mind thing I always think about is where's Olivia. Yet that's always going to be or am I don't you but yeah you're right where is only the we've got Where is a set or not it's Ok to walk around. So it's interesting. When you're really right when did you say to. Although I can say what she does just suddenly you know because it's all over in a cluster. So I can sort you wait a 2nd I saw my dear mom down in south we've got to mirror was that we know of one depicting Bill Sykes one depicting Feigin and the awful Dodger all over anymore so yeah you're right ways only and ways neighbor is only lost his nemesis and done them alland if they'd been a etc etc and sit there and go perfect query so we've now got 3 Crees we've got all of the tricks near use as we're going to insist on calling them down in Suffolk we've got 2 of them all there anymore they're really good at chili we put those up on Twitter so that you can see them whereas all of the there is there must surely if you're going to do all of a twist Muriel would you go there Olivia but so where easy and who's done them an alum of They've been never etc etc They really well painted then we've got Did anybody ever go to the post office Christmas party on the Mount Pleasant and ride on the submarine Ian royal and see Father Christmas on the ground so that's the 2nd query and main street signs Why does some street signs just have the s. And the end the s.w. And the whatever is just the Lexus for south north and east and whatever it might be and not the numbers so my story is n.w. One but the next state might just have n.w. What's the difference there. So that all the 3 queries of that I we've got one more career it's a column but that's going to come from a mix guest Mackenzie cook. Told Stevie Wonder I am what Christmas means to me Johnny's cab was just sent me in a mouse saying well the Meriel down on great Guildford Street now I'm presuming Grego Fisher is down in south that I don't know where great Guilford Street is also has another Muriel of the d.j. Danny Rampling What's the connection Well I can tell you what the connection to Danny Rampling and that bit of subject is or at least I'm assuming it's that bit of saw that is that that's where the 1st shooting was that was a day. His club was shooting which is really where if any were going on the how acid house thing kicked off in an old I'm presuming great Guildford Street is where the original shown was Am I right in that could I when we spot on about the 2nd or 3rd night I think. I'm up and the world was never the same again so. It would be very logical to have a myriad of Danny Rampling on the side of where the 1st shooting was was that on great Street that's what Johnny's cabbies by silly I think is sighing so I haven't seen the myriad of Danny Danny Rampling all I decide ones. That's what we'd like to know so we've got to Miriam who's from Oliver and one of the tiny rambling near each other what's the connection except that Danny Rampling Schumi is 1st club was in an old gym a tiny little spice. And I went down there on a Friday not just in the goatee I and as a said the world was never the same again so can we add that to our query also we got a query about Did anyone ever go to the Christmas party is that the post office Christmas party is under so in office with the trying and then street signs with no numbers just the Lexus. So let's not. Well that's not quite true actually. Hauser says there won't be any streets with just us or just any the other letters for part of the London postcodes but s. Was allocated to Sheffield and any was allocates a new car so were your correct but I'm pretty certain that there are certainly any because before Newcastle led it there wasn't any London postcode and then it changed so there could be any. But I know what you mean s. You don't get you don't get as you get se or s.w. . But so why have some of them just got the letters and not the numbers. London headlines or 1030 Good morning the shadow breaks it Secretary secure Starmer has warned Labor mustn't completely abandon the left wing politics of Jeremy Corben following its crushing election defeat the hope and some Pancras m.p.

Traveller that there's more travel just after 11. This is London All right tell me the last thing that you did that for you in the morning that was probably the London the original if you do it is London anywhere in London. Without hearing some noise of this is this family arena is is pretty big I mean I'm most excited about coming out and just saying hello I'm in a ski area was this is the trick is to come see you positionally bonsai c.b.c. Radio London. And that would happen whenever we discussed Muriel's on the show. Sorry about the cough whenever we discuss Muriel's on the show people ring up or send emails or do tweet saying it's mere Not myriad we know that.

Now a go of a cabin what tonight from Kevin. Was very kind and very nice and I were to and Kevin the cabbie will know well and. Now our guest is here on a should introduce him as Mackenzie Crook m m o talk about why he's here in a 2nd but other than this is ever happened before someone who was coming on the show on a Wednesday said me a query and said can we do this what I can read so 1st of all Mr McKENZIE group Welcome to the show thank you very much thanks for having me and before we talk about the. Rule reason you're here let's there you query Yeah there's a there's a pillar box around the corner from where I live in muscle Hill and western road there I remember reading about years ago that it's a Victorian pillar box that was saved from replacement in the 1980 s. Because apparently Oscar Wilde used to use that parable for walk. Yeah let's hope so and then in 1000 years no pellet apparently used it as well and it was safe for that reason but I can find no connection between Oscar Wilde or no cloud and muzzle Hill and presumably those are house that he was staying in close by on western road I wonder if there is any wilder fiction on those or postal historian's that might know the reasons. Because you don't travel across London to use your favorite post but strangely enough I now do go out of my way to do that postbox just because Oscar Wilde used it but but not imagine he did so what's the connection between Oscar Wilde and what was the road again in Western Road Western the road to screen in and why did you read this this I think is you want to as little pamphlet local history books that you get in your local bookshop that years ago when I 1st moved there and I remember seeing this little fact and and now that the Internet seems to know nothing about it so the query is what's the link between Oscar Wilde and Muswell Hill and I'm less than by where this post book says a month will throw in now calendars well do I mean did no coward live in Muswell apartment again a common you believed in my face Right exactly yeah maybe there's a lot in hell somewhere someone lived close by that they stayed at his house but you know he could find out so they go that's the 4th query of the day so it joins the the street signs that have letters but no numbers it joins the mirror eels and I shall insist on calling them that down in south London where is where is all the far we've got a mural of Feigin in the Artful Dodger we've got a mural of Bill Sykes but there's no mural of all of a Surely there has to be one and what's Danny Rampling doing in them is well you know I think I know the answer to that one and we've got a crew did anyone have a governor to a post office Christmas party for kids of postal workers underneath the so in office up in Mount Pleasant and right on the railway down there Christmas with Father Christmas so those are our queries of the Day What And let's tell you why Mackenzie Crook is really here meeting coming whenever he likes because he's one of our lives and we like him a lot but he's coming in particularly because he is about to blow he has already been and you are about to see his Worzel Gummidge McKenzie Why would still. Why he was never part of my life as he wasn't no stranger you know I was aware of him but I didn't watch I can only see something on the other side so. Because of that because I was coming from a place where you know he. Was new to me and also it was 40 years since the last adaptation of books that are nearly 90 years old and I thought you know that that's not over flooding the market with that patience is it so 1st of all I didn't even know there were books yes 1st oh yeah long long time ago and baby How did you find all this out there given that you're not a Wasn't Gummi g m no whatever it would be or government just yeah a friend of mine Christian Smith got the rights to the books a couple of years ago and I worked with him on detectorists and he came to me in an all stiff if I fancied adapting and it did seem like a sort of an evolution from detectorists is very much sort of set in rural England and connected with the landscape so yeah it felt like the right thing to do did you go back and watch the old ones I avoided them until after I'd written my version is I don't want to be influenced by them but so yes since then I've gone back and seen what do you think I mean their of their time but they're incredibly well got don't watch them since I was a however old I was when they die what I al the 1st one was I think 79 and it ran through to 89. And yeah I mean I think they were ahead of their time at the time and they're very cinematic all shot on film and beautifully written by by Keith Waterhouse and Willis hall and they would be with yes we wrote Yeah and so what your memories of it fun of it well I'm a little bit too old to write in love with it because I'm 70 you know I know you know that universe might say 90 right but I certainly remember watching it on a Sunday night I was on a Sunday I think yeah I was going home and was in there I mean every Yeah and then we wonder about it and there was that little catch for. It is like he called the telephone the telling bug and that stayed with me and I still use it occasionally and everyone would have known who were Gummidge was and if you saw someone particularly scruffy in the street you would see how this was a guy Jackley but there's a generation now that I've never heard the name my kids you know rang no bells for them at all so yeah that's another good reason to introduce him to a new generation of kids and have you you say it's kind of all of it's time have you made of this time well it definitely set it's in the present day but you know I'm not flooded it with digital technology and smartphones it's you know it's still very much set in the countryside and it's about the countryside. But yet that they're there modern 21st century kids and is there was an agenda would be entirely the wrong word but is there a sort of an ecological self to it would you say there is yet to actually I mean that's what I spoke. Of woven Yeah an environmental message and you know not in your face message but. I think we ought to set something in the countryside in this day and age without having some sort of nod towards the you know the who struggle with it that's going on c.n.n. It's seemed like the ideal vehicle to put something like that into and I think in some ways even back then it was sort of about a vanishing world then wasn't it yeah you might be right because yes that drum put we had to take it was 25 years off when in fact the the 1st b.b.c. Television adaptation in 1053 So yes it was all yeah harking back to this old fashioned rural world what was your mind who is were you know I mean what's his kind of well in the 2nd film that we've done is going out this Christmas we've got Michael Pollan playing the Green Man the creator of the scarecrow who was the at the crime and in a lot of tension but I saw the Wurzel as this green man figure this sort of guardian of the natural world he's he's out there in a few watching spotting the changes and reporting. Back and just keeping an eye on the balance of things are good you know I got that completely wrong it was ways of telling how it's easy to mix them to something out because they want to yes who's played by Geoffrey Blainey movie played the chrome and it was a comment yet there's a kind of there's a real link Yeah this is Yeah absolutely yeah did you have to get how did you become Gummidge in terms of physical physicality is what is even easier I mean well my version he had to turn it for a head Yes So yes if it turns been pulled up out the ground with the root still attached there's a bit but one of the big changes that I wanted to have was that he's not stuffed he's just clothes hung on his wooden frame so we use a little bit of c.g.i. So that every time his jacket blows open you can see straight through him there's no substance to him and it was fun to do I think that's good to us isn't so Michael painting plays agree man we've got so you want to make a place local dignitary lady Bloomsbury Barton the key Pepperdine plays Aunt Sally she's no longer the love interest of our religion here she's now he's because all Sally was also very fight yes yeah you know Stubbs but that was that was an invention for the series that she was his love interest I've gone back to the books where he's aunt he's missed but I don't. And Steve Pemberton plays a farm with Braithwaite and then well as you possibly won't have heard of India Brown and he played the kids and they are extraordinary northern haven't heard of that he's amazing Also where did you film it's set in a sort of a fictional West Country County Wessex sort of thing but for a cost reasons and environmental reasons we all around the m $25.00. Counties I smugly show you what for. Under the flood. Do you when you do something is this is it I was a one off but there's 2 of them certainly isn't is it true off or are you thinking it could be more I really love to do more yeah we've done these 2 films one follows on from the other but the. Kind of stand alone as well and part of I don't the so fond of this character really falling for him and I can hear his voice and the stories are kind of spilling out what is it about his voice what I mean why are you so fond of him why is he because clearly he's a very engaging self because lots of people loved Yes I thought let me think he needs he's this child like character trapped in the older body he's charming and irreverent and a bit so key but he's coined over all funny I don't know he's you know he's in and I'm using a little of yourself in your piece. That's me all over. And he has always been bid. I'm not the same thing about my play the part that that would be terrible other people have said. Were you worried about. No worry that it's there they have been created been part of the people of very helpfully suggested to me I could play one of them which was going back so my never said that to you before Oh yes you know really oh yeah there's Mr Muscle there's a cat we saw his stick at the dump was becoming a bunch of Dickens characters but when that when the name came up I think initially I thought if they got very soon after I thought Knightley I think the time's right all the books worth reading I want to see the kids' books know. There are. Very very of their toy I'm not there Audrey to have to admit they're an Audrey So how did you kind of feel 'd that might be something that the charm is still there that didn't carry to the character of Gummidge and all the other scarecrows in the world of Scott's book is all very much there it's it's there's a sort of a thread of cruelty is it running through the books of that time head I remember reading the original Thomas the Tank Engine stories to my son and he loved the bullying and to face that yeah I mean all the many of the other sort of things that would not. Acceptable now because it was in lots of kids fiction of that era this kind of advice is a movie is this all of that sort of stuff again I mean are they going to take any event in the books but yet is that the way you I mean gender stereotypes Yes there are types in general you know they're scattered throughout and the way people speak to each other yeah it's a strange thing well it's a strange thing but it's back yes I'm wins it all and songbooks in the e.b.u.

It does take up an awful lot of oxygen and it will when it gets to the Senate but in these particular circumstances and this is one of the things the Democrats have been at pains to explain and to push forward and to urge there is no other remedy for a president they consider out of control Sue Davis Jerrold Nadler the chairman has taken his seat as we prepare to start this hearing what is going to happen today what is a markup a markup is when lawmakers have a chance in committee to make any changes to the bill before it goes to the floor we do not expect that this markup will fundamentally change the 2 articles that in Article one on abuse of power in an article 2 on instruction I don't expect many Democrats to offer amendments we're going to see a lot of Republicans try and change it or you know move to strike it entirely there are likely to be successful these are going to be a bunch of party line votes the Articles of Impeachment won't be approved until the very end of this hearing and we don't expect them to be fundamentally changed it so why will Republicans try to change it if they're not going to be successful this is that you know there is a lot of political theater here this is another chance for Republicans to make their case against these articles of impeachment why they shouldn't be here I think a lot of their motions will be in the order to try and defeat to defeat articles or to change them entirely and you know there is we're not expecting any Republicans to vote for these articles of impeachment Democrats are expected to have the votes they need certainly in the committee and certainly when it comes to the floor next week although you're more likely to see some Democrats vote against them on the floor than you are likely to see any Republican vision you can here's General Now the president when the committee research completed opening statements on the resolution about to be considered suing to notice under House Resolution 660 I now quote House Resolution 755 featuring John John Trump president the United States I crimes and misdemeanors Mr Chairman our. Generals to this point of order the chairman to make border against consideration of this resolution on the grounds of the German willful or if you. To schedule it properly demand a minority day of hearings pursuant to close to Gerry one Collins the ranking member on the point of order once you've. Now. 755 impeaching Donald Trump president of states rights crimes and misdemeanors for purposes of markup and move that the committee report the resolution favorably to the house. For the resolution has 755 m.p.h. And Donald John president of the United States for high crimes and misdemeanors in the House of Representatives December 10th 2019 Mr neither submitted the following resolution which was referred to the committee on the judiciary resolution impeaching Donald John Trump president of United States for high crimes and misdemeanors resolve that Donald j. Trump president the United States is impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors and that the following articles of impeachment be exhibited to the United States Senate or articles of impeachment exhibited by the House of Representatives of the United States of America in the name of itself and of the people of the United States of America against Donald Trump president of United States of America and maintenance and support of his impeachment against him for high crimes and misdemeanors article one abuse of power the constitution provides of the House of Representatives have the power of impeachment of the President shall be removed from office of impeachment for the conviction of treason bribery or other high crimes and misdemeanors in his conduct of the office of the president of the United States and in violation of his constitutional oath basically to execute the office of the president of the United States and to the best of his ability preserve protect and defend the Constitution of the United States and in violation of his constitutional duty to take care of the Laws be faithfully and Donald Trump has abused the powers of the presidency in that using the power of the high office President Trump solicited the interference of a foreign government Ukraine and the 2020 United States presidential election he did so through a scheme or course of conduct that included soliciting the government of Ukraine to publicly announce investigations that would benefit his re-election harm the election prospects of a political opponent and influence the 22. When a United States presidential election to his advantage president also sought to pressure the government of Ukraine to take these steps by conditioning official United States government acts of significant value of Ukraine on his public announcement of the investigations president trumping gays in the scheme. Is concerned conservatives were a suit. I object. To is your personal personal political benefit in doing so President Trump use the powers of the presidency and a manner that compromised the national security of the United States and undermined the integrity of the United States democratic process he thus ignored and injure the interests of the nation President Trump engaged in the scheme or course of conduct of the following means one president acting both directly and through his agents within and outside the United States government corruptly solicited the government of Ukraine to publicly announce investigations into a political opponent former Vice President Joseph r. Biden Jr and b. a Discredited theory promoted by Russia alleging that Ukraine rather than Russia interfered in the 26 team United States presidential election 2 with the same corrupt Motors President Trump acting both directly and through his agents within and outside the United States government condition to official acts on the public announcements that he had requested a the release of $391000000.00 of United States taxpayer funds that Congress had appropriated on a bipartisan basis for the purpose of providing vital military and security assistance to Ukraine to oppose Russian aggression in which President Trump had ordered suspended and be a head of state meeting at the White House which president of Ukraine sought to demonstrate continued United States support for the government of Ukraine in the face of Russian aggression 3 faced with the public revelation of his actions president ultimately released the military and security assistance to the government of Ukraine but has persisted in openly and corruptly urging and soliciting Ukraine to undertake investigations 1st personal political benefit these actions were consistent with President Charles previous invitations of foreign interference United States elections. In all of this President Trump abuse the powers of the presidency by ignoring injuring national security and other vital national interest to obtain an improper personal political benefit he has also betrayed the nation by abusing his high office to enlist a foreign power in corrupting democratic elections wherefore President Trump by such conduct has demonstrated that he will remain a threat to national security and the Constitution if allowed to remain in office he has acted in a manner grossly incompatible with self governance and the rule of law President Trump thus more into impeachment and child removal from office and disqualification to hold and enjoy any office of honor trust or profit under the United States Article 2 obstruction of Congress the Constitution provides that the House of Representatives shall have the sole power of impeachment and that the president shall be removed from office of impeachment on impeachment for the conviction of treason bribery or other high crimes and misdemeanors in his conduct of the office of the president of United States and in violation of his constitutional oath only to execute the office of the president the United States and to the best of his ability preserve protect and defend the Constitution of the United States and in violation of its constitutional duty to take care of the Laws be faithfully executed Donald Trump has directed the unprecedented categorical an indiscriminate defiance of subpoenas issued by the House of Representatives pursuant to its sole power of impeachment President Trump has abused the powers of the presidency in a manner offensive to and subversive of the Constitution in that the House of Representatives has engaged in an impeachment inquiry focused on president trumps corrupt solicitation of the government of Ukraine to interfere in the 2020 United States presidential election as part of this impeachment inquiry the committees undertaking the investigation serve subpoenas seeking documents and testimony d. Invite also the inquiry from various executive branch agencies and offices and current and former officials in response without lawful cause or excuse president trying to rectify executive branch agencies offices and officials not to comply with those subpoenas President Trump does interpose the powers of the presidency against the lawful subpoenas of the House of Representatives and assume to himself functions and to. It's necessary to the exercise of the sole power of impeachment that's about the Constitution in the House of Representatives President Trump abuse the power of his high office through the following means one directing the White House to defy a lawful subpoena by withholding the production of documents sought there and by the committee to directing other executive branch agencies and offices to defy lawful subpoenas and withhold the production of documents and records from the committees in response to which the Department of State Office of Management and Budget Department of Energy and Department of Defense refused to produce a single document or record 3 directing current and former executive branch officials not to cooperate with the committees in response to which 9 administration officials defied subpoenas for testimony namely John Michael Mick Mulvaney Robert b. Blair John a Eisenberg Michael Ellis Preston Russell t. Michael Duffy Brian McCormick and t. Over. These actions were consistent with the with President Trump's previous efforts to undermine United States government investigations into for interference in United States elections through these actions President Trump sought to arrogated to himself the right to determine the propriety scope and nature of an impeachment inquiry into his own conduct as well as the unilateral prerogative to deny any and all information to the Unite to the House of Representatives in exercise of its sole power of impeachment in the history of the republic no president has ever ordered the complete defiance of an impeachment inquiry or sought to obstruct impede so comprehensively the ability of the House of Representatives to investigate high crimes and misdemeanors this abuse of office serves to cover up the president's own repeated misconduct just seize the control of power of impeachment and thus to nullify a vital constitutional safeguards vested solely in the House of Representatives and all of this President Trump has acted in a manner contrary to his trust as president and subversive of constitutional government to the great prejudice of cause of law and justice and to the manifest injury of the people of the United States or for President Trump by such conduct has demonstrated that he will remain a threat to the Constitution. If allowed to remain in office and has acted in America grossly incompatible with soft governance and the rule of law President Trump just warrants impeachment trial removal from office in disqualification to hold enjoy the office of honor trust and profit under the United States thank you gentlemen no state is point of order Thank you again as I made the point on this monocular calendar making member we just heard that the House Judiciary Committee reading our 2 articles of impeachment against President rather future respond to multiple additional requests to that hearing the schedule and at one point actually telling me that I actually responded to this they will rule with it today while we're here today and it's a farce that we haven't ruled on this today because there's no other time we're actually taking up the articles today so the rule is not super And by the way the rule is this rule is not superseded by any portion of a tourist 660 that could have been done by the majority but they were too busy in a hurry to get 860 to the floor that after discussing this they chose not to exempt the minority hearing that this could have been done they chose not to now we're not having it so continue up on war. If I understand the gentleman's point of order he is serious we are by violating clause to Jay one of has Ruhleben I conduct in this market before we have held the hearing that the minority members requested on December 4th. In my view the gentleman is claiming a broader privilege than cause to j. One actually provides the minority. The minority has asked for a day of hearings on the matter of the December 4th hearing which was the Constitutional grounds for impeachment and willing to work with the minority to schedule such a hearing but not before today's markup of the articles of impeachment the house rule does not require me to schedule a hearing on a particular day nor does it nor does it require me to schedule the hearing as a condition proceed and taking any specific legislative action otherwise the minority would have the ability to delay or black majority legislative action which is clearly not the purpose of the rule I reach this conclusion after reviewing the plaintext and legislative history of the house rule after considering prior precedent in committee practice and after consulting with parliamentary authorities in the Congressional Research Service I believe my scheduling decision in this case is reasonable for several reasons 1st the minorities views have not been shut out the legislative history of the minority day rule shows that it was written to prevent a committee majority from preventing the minority position from being represented in the hearing as reported in the joint committee on the organization of Congress in 1966 explains it is normal procedure for witnesses representing both sides of the issue to give testimony a committee hearings in those infrequent instances when witnesses representing the minority position are not allotted time Aminu safeguards should exist to protect minority rights and quote of course that did not happen at the December 4th hearing the minority whip the minority had a witness at their hearing Professor Turley were able to represent their position and was afforded ample time to discuss that position rather than being shut out the minority simply did not get as many witnesses as they would have preferred but that is not the purpose of the house rule 2nd the minority in the president have special protections under House Resolution $660.00 the procedures provided under House Resolution $660.00 give the president and the minority of raw. I use special privileges to present evidence and witness and subpoena witnesses thus there are alternative procedures under $860.00 by which witnesses can be requested and even subpoenaed but they have not been exercised varied there is no precedent for the use of minority days to delay committee legislative or impeachment proceedings it is clear from the legislative history that the minority day rule is not intended to delay legislative activity again as the committee and the organization of the Congress is specifically explained We do not look upon this rule as an authorization for the laying tactics unquote the minority do rules made part of the House rules in 1701 but was not involved in either the Nixon or Clinton impeachment as a matter of fact the only president I am aware of in the context of impeachment took place several weeks ago in the Intelligence Committee they are the minority also requested a day of hearings even though they are said witnesses but is there proceedings the minority ultimately did not raise a point of order well they did offer an amendment claiming that the minority day rule had been violated that amendment was rejected by the committee 1st there was no precedent no precedent supporting the gentleman's point of order and the one precedent we have indicates that a point of order does not apply to delay consideration of articles of impeachment finally passkey to Sherry committee practice and President do not support the gentleman's point of order last year the number of other members and I sent then Chairman Goodlatte and already did request the chairman never never responded to requests and never scheduled a hearing I don't believe a single member then Majority argued in favor of us being granted our hearing under the rules back in 2005 then Chairman Sensenbrenner schedule of the minority day hearing a cut off witnesses. Shut off the microphones shut off the lights and abruptly ended the hearing or members were seeking recognition to speak again no one in the then Majority argued in favor of protecting our rights as a result there's no committee practice precedent supporting the gentleman's point of order for all the foregoing reasons I do not sustain the point of order to share . What purposes the gentleman seek recognition I think it is very obvious that I won the wink of the chairman's aerator to my question that this was struck a nerve seeing how the chairman himself says it in his own words from previous times the Chairman it is not the chairman's right to decide whether prior hearings are sufficient or the Germans right to decide whether things are itself or the Germans right to violate the rules in order to interfere it is interesting to me that this has become you know I mean I could say I was made that I made my ruling on the point of order and we wish to appeal the ruling of our ally for this is a good life for the sake of history the chair one more has in it as you gentlemen wish to appeal the ruling of the chair yes or no yes obviously all of the marking calendar he'll marry any other German is doing this again all of the ruling of the chair is not sustained. And moved to table did you actually call for a vote how does it not sustain you don't call for a vote I sustain the point of order I call for a chair for a vote in the court I ruled at the point of order is not well taken that's if we are. Of appeal the ruling of the chair moved to take gentlemen is appealed to ruling of the chair gentle Lady Mabel the appeal to the chair that move motion to table is not debatable on favor of the motion to table say I pose no the appeal of the motion the appeal the ruling the chair is table we will now proceed to amend all call. Gentleman asked rule on the motion to table the appeal ruling of the chair the clerk will call the roll Mr neither are you Ok so as this roll call takes place Ron Elving what's going on here Republicans just trying to slow this down today perhaps not just slow it down but also raise a flag and raise a standard if you will in say that they feel they have not been given due process this of course is what the president has also argued that he has not been given due process he has refused to send the invited representatives of the committee did allow for him to send and so they are perhaps in this case perhaps reaching out audience of one but also a much broader audience of people who don't understand these proceedings don't understand why he's going on his pace and don't favor the idea of removing a president and Sue Davis they say that they want their own witness day and they want to call more people they want to call Adam Schiff to testify they want to call the whistleblower to testify Yeah I mean the one thing you always have to remember about the House of Representatives in all matters is the majority rules that the minority has almost no rights so a lot of times when the minority party is raising these kind of fights it's just for the political fight of it the minority is not never expected to get their way in the House of Representatives and some of the things that Republicans have asked for the witnesses they asked for people like they want to excuse me they want to call the whistleblower he wanted to call Joe 100 bided they wanted to call Adam Schiff they're these are people that Democrats are not going to entertain these motions but it does give Republicans chances here to again look like they are putting up a strong as fight of possible against these articles of impeachment and run as the clerk was reading out the articles of impeachment our listeners may have even been able to hear some of the members chatting in the background Republicans making clear they didn't want to hear those articles being read well in fact one of the senior Republican Steve have a. Literally said list dispense with this let's just not read it let's go back to the area here any 3. $23.00 eyes and 17 hours predictably that is read the 1st section of the resolution. Atra 755 m.p.h. And Donald John Trump president of United States for high crimes and misdemeanors in the House of Representatives December 10th 21000 Mr neither submitted the following resolution which was referred to the committee on the judiciary resolution impeaching John John term president United States for high crimes and misdemeanors resolve that John and present a united states is impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors the following articles of impeachment exhibited to the United States Senate articles of impeachment exhibited by the House of Representatives of the United States of America in the name of itself and of the people of the United States of America against Donald j. Trump president of United States of America and maintenance and support of its impeachment against him for high crimes and misdemeanors I will I now recognize myself for purposes of offering remember the nature of his substitute report the amended. Amendment in the nature of a substitute 8755 offered by Mr Nadler of New York so at all that follows after the resolving clause and insert the following then objection the amendments will be considered as read that objection the minutes will be considered for further amendment I will now recognize myself to explain the nature of. This amendment makes a minor change in certain places with the underlying resolution of 1st j. Trump remember it refers to Donald Trump Otherwise it makes no changes to the resolution urging all of my colleagues to support it I now recognize the ranking member the gentleman from Georgia Mr Cummings any comments he may have on the men they give us share in the nature of the service it is absolutely irrelevant actually taking Donald j. Trump to make it Donald Trump John Trump just simply shows the frankly. Absurdity of where we're up and today we're going to spend plenty of time for you listening here we're going to talk about this member nations of the what I talk about the factual bases that are absolutely no factual underpinning to impeach the president but I'm going to go back for just a minute since I didn't have time and had to sit through a well rehearsed many days. Put together explanation of why the what will be known in 2019 out of the fact that this committee finally accomplished his goal after the chairman's stated he wanted to since November of last year impeach this president what will be known by this committee from here all out is that this committee has now sounded the death of minority right in this committee this committee has become nothing but a rubber stamp this committee is amazingly now on such a cog in calendar process that they don't care facts be damned they don't care they don't care that they we had a one witness out of 3 when I asked for a 2nd witness I was told I couldn't even though they had been staff conversations well before I was told I was acting as being too late one witness out of 2 panels that's all we had of witnesses this is a just travesty and a sham from day one I could talk to I'm blue in the face but nobody on the majority cares with the spot that is left by what is just happened will resonate over the years it will resonate over the years in the sense that there is no fact that we can come to they had no desire to hear any thought when this is outside of their own train driven clock calendar impeachment. For the chairman himself who vehemently thought from an already hearing day to sit there and read that is an amazing statement and a crushing blow to this committee there's no way to recover from that in fact there may be I wonder if the chairman would join me in making sure that the Rules Committee next week they don't waive the point of order against this but I know they will that's why they're going to take it because I guarantee you when you look into it further this point of order would be sustained against these impeachment articles so they're going to have to waive a mix we watch and see they will waive this point of order and waive any other point of order only as articles by the time it comes to the floor for some of you may say. The ranking member talks about process the ranking member talks about process the ranking member talks about process never the foundation believe me we will end in days you with the facts and I have already some of you just don't choose to report them what is important in for many who report on this body and for many who have said in this body over those who have served in this body the members who have gone before and the people who set this committee up and as people assert our congress up all the ones right now they should be hanging their head in shame we had hearings none of which featured in this is there's not a Democrat in this room this should be happy about this the solemn manatee the Solomon to be should be on the death of this committee's process and procedures don't give me the solemn energy about impeaching a president you've been wanting to do that for a long time you ought to take it in this rejoice go at it because this is what you want but when it comes to the hearing when it comes to the minority rights when it comes to one in which we have seen time after time after time in which I have had to write this chairman multi-page letters only abuse of procedural issues in this committee this is a travesty write about it if you want to talk about if you will but the American people that because the American people understand Harry fairness they understand due process why because it's what America was based on it is what America takes pride in and we don't have it nobody can have it we don't have fairness in this community how can they stand up and say all of the 2 weakest articles impeachment in the area this going 3 honestly with a straight face look at the American people and say we did good no you did you stain this body you've taken this committee and made it a rubber stamp. Did any of the majority Ron to be a rubber stamp to get the majority I know the minority in this did not you know why I know it so much while we're become a rubber stamp because my chairman said so 20 years ago. He said So 20 years ago when he said if the committee only accepts what other people give them and do not own their own verified and thoroughly vetted then we are nothing but a rubber stamp Mr Chairman you should have run for a chairmanship I believe more than to be a rubber stamp for Mr she often Miss Pelosi we already knew this committee was overrun and overtaken because Mr Sheehan Mr Palosi took it from us earlier this year there is the 1st embarrassment and the rest of it has been an embarrassment since so as we look at this as we go forward we'll have plenty of time to show the complete farce of substance but Mr Chairman what will live from this is your ruling and the majority ruling of minority rights or did this Congress and especially this committee move to 7 years back as your main Minster the men are listening to 89.3 k.p.c. Syndrome of strike westward what purpose does the gentleman is the judge the way you move to strike on a story. Mr Chairman I cannot allow the ranking member to miss characterize your description of the history of this committee if it may be in the Democrat Ted Deutch member to be forced to listen to the history of this committee and why everything everything that you just laid out is so important to the continuing of this committee representing in recognizing respecting minority rights but he chooses not to so I'm going to restate it again I appreciate the ranking member for and knowledge in that they had the opportunity to call witnesses. And that's consistent with the rules but to then turn around and suggest that the rules are being trampled the rules are dead. Ignores everything that you just laid out 50 more than 50 years ago. More than 50 years ago the Joint Committee on the organization of Congress made clear in their report to the House and Senate that it's normal procedure for witnesses representing both sides of the issue to give testimony committee hearings and that's where the rule comes from and that's what's happened the ranking member acknowledged that he would have liked more witnesses there's no right to a separate day the rule makes clear they have the right call witnesses and there were witnesses called there were witnesses called the minority witnesses on December 4th or December night the minorities witness Mr Castor presented evidence and gave opening statements and it's worth pointing out to my colleagues on the other side that we invited the president of the United States to the December 4th hearing the advocate for his views. To submit requested witnesses but he chose not to attend and he chose not to suggest any witnesses so before before telling us the sky is falling in there is great disrespect for the rules it's important to actually look at the gentleman just say I didn't request witnesses that it was. Gentlemen I thank the chairman what I said is that the president was given the opportunity under some before if to present himself he was also given the opportunity to present witnesses and he did not so let's be careful in the way we suggest that rules are being violated when everything that's being done here is consistent with more than 50 years of interpretation of the rules and the very essence of why the rule was put together in the 1st place so it's important that's really do matter and I'm not I'm not we're not going to allow the minority to misinterpret the rules for their own benefit or to suggest that the history is irrelevant it matters a lot that's what's made this committee and this institution great mail back your meals back with any amendments the amendment nature reserves to. Chairman I got were privileged to do is Mr Jordan's you have been a member of the desk clerk will report the a member I was appointed war and Lady reserves a point of order. Amendment and the amendment in the nature of a subsidy to 8755 offered by Mr Jordan of Ohio page one beginning on line 12 strike Article one and 3 designate the succeeding article accordingly. The gentleman is recognized for the purpose of excluding is a member Thank you Mr Chairman this is a man in stripes article one of my point of this amendment strikes article you are the Republican or is the truth or facts 5 meetings we've talked about it now for 3 months we've known that there been 4 facts that have not changed will not change will never change and we've known it since September 25th when the call transcript was released called transcript shows no quid pro quo what's interesting is the day the transcript came out even Chairman Adler said there was no quid pro quo in the call transcript we don't 2nd that the 2 individuals on the call presence list the President Trump of both said no pressure no pushing no linkage whatsoever between security assistance money and any type of announcement of an investigation we know that the Ukrainians knew at the time of the call didn't know at the time of the call that the aide had been held up and most importantly most importantly we know the Ukrainians took no action no start of an investigation no promise to start an investigation no announcement on c.n.n. In via tweet No Matt no announcement whatsoever that there was going to be any type of investigation into charisma or the Bidens to get the aid release those 4 facts. Those 4 facts have never changed sakit 5 key meetings that took place between July 18th when the aid was passed September 11th when the aid was released 5 key meetings we have the phone call I 25th what you just described 2nd never very next day very next day we have a master's Volcker Saarland Taylor meeting with presidents Lenski 3rd investor Bolton met with presidents Let's go August 29th for as well as President pence met with presidents Let's go in September 2nd and 3rd. On September 5th we have bipartisan senator Senator Johnson Senator Murphy's or Senator Murphy meeting with presidents Alinsky in none of those 5 meetings none did linking dollars security assistance dollars to an investigation come up never came up and you would think in the last 2 you would think in those last 2 after they knew on August 29th via the Politico article that they knew the aide was held you would think it would come up in those last 2 meetings but it didn't come up for facts 5 meetings have never changed article one in this resolution ignores the truth it ignores the facts it ignored it ignores what happened and what has been laid out for the American people over the last 3 weeks so I hope this committee will come to its senses. At all Dr and then the. Strike article one from the resolution with that Mr Chairman I yield back Mr Chairman I moved back if you like Mr Sousa leaning opposition Thank you Mr Chairman I move to strike the last word Mr Chairman this is the miscellaneous Democrat of Rhode Island in its entirety so I want to go through the evidence that was actually developed during the course of this investigation and particularly 1st begin with the focus on the president's own conduct the president I say it's hired Rudy Giuliani his personal lawyer to go to Ukraine and lead this team to smear Vice President Biden he then began a campaign personally to smear Ambassador Yavanna bitch and then ultimately directed that she be fired to clear the way of this anti corruption champion so that his scheme could be fully implemented he directed a hold on the military aid to Ukraine and no one could provide any other explanation unrelated to his scheme to pressure them to interfere in the 2020 election then the president in his own words on July 20th gets on the telephone and asked President Zelinsky for a favor to begin an investigation of his chief political rival former Vice President Joe Biden there's a readout of the call and evidence which is the detail of this conversation is direct evidence from Alexander Renmin Williams Mr Morrison who listened in on and heard the president utter those words right out of his own mouth pressuring a foreign leader to corrupt our elections the president then made admissions in public on October 2nd October 3rd and October 4th and invited another foreign power China to interfere in the American presidential election its chief of staff acknowledged that the president directed him to put this unexplained hold on aid to Ukraine the president directed the vice president not to attend the inauguration of President Zelinsky because he hadn't yet got what he was demanding a public announcement intended to damage his political opponent bats or someone testified that the Ukrainians were. Told and I quote the resumption of u.s. Aid would likely not occur until you came Ukraine provided the public and to crush the statement that we had been discussing for many weeks and then he testified he spoke with President Trump and while the president claimed there was no quid pro quo he made it clear that President Selenski must publicly announce the 2 investigations that President Trump discussed on July 25th in a call in order for this security system to be lifted That's direct evidence but in addition to that those are just of the highlights there are over $260.00 text messages There are called trans gives as I mentioned the president's own words your e-mails between high ranking officials the trumpet ministration hundreds of press statements interviews and tweets by the president and his personal attorney Rudy Giuliani corroborating their desire to pursue investigations of Vice President Biden prior to the 2020 elections I want to give the committee a couple of just examples. President Trump himself on October 2nd said and I quote and just so you know we've been investigating on a personal basis through Rudy and other lawyers corruption in the 2016 election joy 19th investor summons e-mails multiple high ranking officials that he quote talked design ski and he quote is prepared to receive POTUS is called and will state that he will turn over every stone of the investigations in on July 29th 2900 dishing to the e-mail ambassador Salman tax ambassador Volcker makes the same thing clear sun looks like Paul has called How I spoke directly to z. And gave him full briefing he's got it all had breakfast with Rudy this morning teeing up a call with your American Monday must have held most importance for Zelinsky to say that he will help investigate and address any specific personal issues if there are any on Aug 8th investor son and best of all good text about POTUS wanting the deliverable in meaning that for Ukraine to get the White House meeting Zelinsky needs to announce the investigation someone says and I quote worse than is ready to get dates as soon as your met confirms overrespond excellent How did you sway him so on the response not sure I did I think POTUS really wants the deliverables Loker asked does he know that someone says Yup clearly lots of conversations going on in August 16th Ambassador Taylor involved to discuss Ukraine's concern that President Trump was not using official channels like the Department of Justice to request investigations Taylor tax investor of all get the person who asked for an official request was your mac lies yes but don't say Look I won't you're right this is not good we need to stay clear on August 22nd Ambassador some an e-mail secretary of state might Pompei on others to make clear that to break the logjam many releasing the military aid presidents Alinsky would have to move forward on the issues of importance to trump again meeting the investigations. And the list goes on and on so this claim that this is the thinnest of evidence is simply not true there is overwhelming evidence of the existence of a skiing led by the president led by his personal or Rudy Giuliani to corrupt the American elections to continue to withhold military aid until such time as a public announcement was made that would smear the president's chief political rival and with. Back for work purposes and is less than Thank you Mr Chair moved to strike the last word says a Republican of Arizona are really quite disturbed me when you again rejected. The rule of the House that said that we as the minority where it says in the rules that you require require. That you set a date for a minority hearing and the reason that this is important is because the rules have been thrown out the window here on this process in fact I just can't believe it I mean 1st of all you have an unprecedented way of doing impeachment you don't go through the Judiciary Committee like has been done in previous impeachment impeachments instead Speaker Pelosi hands it over to Adam Schiff Adam Schiff the Intelligence Committee chair where he has these clues do or hearings in the basement I was denied several times several times the right to go in in here with these facts witnesses sad yet I'm supposed to vote on this today and we have not had one single fact witness here in this committee at all. And then I hear from my Republican colleagues that were on the Intelligence Committee that Republicans were refused to have any of their witnesses in that committee and then on top of that Republicans were told interrupted silence by Chairman shift when they tried to ask witnesses questions they said that they said as a witness Don't answer that. I mean and so now here in Judiciary Committee we're supposed to vote on something when we haven't even heard directly from any fact witnesses all we heard from was a bunch of liberal law professors that you called here that have known a record of disliking President Trump and then you had staff talk to us and then again here in this committee are Republican members asked for witnesses so that we can ask questions to get out the truth to get out at least let us say our side of the story but no and so then we turn to Ok under the house rules it says you're required to send a minority hearing so that we can at least call witnesses so we can get some truth out to the American public instead of this one sided sham that no here again I think you said right here. No we're not going to do that well I'll consider a date in the future that you can have a minority hearing for goodness sakes we're voting on this today it's so good to have a date in the future then it's done you've already put through those I mean it just continues to amaze me how corrupt how unfair this process has been from the start I mean for goodness sakes we had 17 out of 24 of my Democratic colleagues that have already voted on the House floor to continue with articles of impeachment it was it was it was Mr Green who put a resolution on the floor articles of impeachment it was July 17th. And then there was a vote to table it and they voted against the tabling meaning they wanted to go ahead with articles of impeachment. That was even before the July 25th call. I mean come on this is a pre-determined you guys have been wanting to impeach this president since you got elected fact after fact after fact I know that you some of you really think the president did something wrong but the fact is there is no none of your witnesses none of your fact witnesses were able to establish any evidence of bribery trees and high crimes or misdemeanors not one single wire and that's what it says has to be done in the Constitution so again I believe the president of the United States is right this is a sham impeachment and it sure is a shame and I yield back the balance of my time. Backward prism is the new mission . Were to strike the last we're going to thank you Mr Chairman Karen Hughes Democrat from Colorado my colleagues on the other side of the aisle it is difficult to follow some of these arguments I've heard very little in the way of any substantive defenses of the president's conduct but instead focus again on some very forceful process arguments in my view and I am compelled to respond to at least one of those which is this notion about the closed door depositions because it's high understand it from reading these transcripts many minority members were present and granted equal time to question witnesses brought before the Intelligence Committee the Foreign Affairs Committee in the Government Oversight Committee some of those members are actually on the committee so I struggle to understand the objections in that regard the idea that intelligence committee's investigation was not sufficiently transparent in my view also rings hollow because we know the transcripts. From those interviews those depositions have been released I know I've reviewed them I suspect many of my colleagues have as well and if you did not review those transcripts you surely watched the live testimony of Ambassador saw in one lieutenant colonel Vin and so many other public servants over the course of many weeks as knowing ins of Americans watched along with us so again it is I understand that we're going to have a robust debate about the legal standards that govern the inquiry that is before us in the decision we make on these articles but let us stay true to the facts and let's dispense with these process arguments and get to the substance of why we are here today I will also just say historical context matters I was not on the Judiciary Committee in 1999 in 1998 but my understanding is at that time the Judiciary Committee did not examine any fact witnesses during the Clinton impeachment inquiry I know there are members of this committee that were here at that time and they will are well aware that they did question can a star and then afterwards had hearings with legal experts to expound upon the legal standards that would define the decision before the committee I would also say that during the Nixon impeachment inquiry the examination of witnesses fact witnesses rather was conducted exclusively behind closed doors in July of 1974 so unlike both the Nixon inquiry as well as the Clinton inquiry the House Intelligence Committees hearings future testimony from a dozen witnesses in an open hearing subject to public examination by Republican members and counsel facts matter and I hope that each and every one of us would agree at least on that simple with way and with that the gentleman I would yield to distinguish men from California Miss Lothrop. I would just like to know going back to the analogy Democrat of California. Impeachment gentleman is correct that there was really no public presentation in the Judiciary Committee there were some quite a few depositions that were private but there was a lot of public has to more it wasn't before the Judiciary Committee it was before the Senate Watergate Committee as you'll recall the president's counsel John Dean appeared and testified that there was a cancer on the presidency and a number of other the revelation that there was a recording system in the White House all of that happened in the Senate and the fact that it happened in the Senate didn't mean that the judiciary committee didn't know about it I mean the whole country knew about it and took notice of it there's only a few members of as of this committee that were on the Judiciary Committee during the Clinton impeachment I was one of them is Jackson Lee and Mr Adler where we were as well as Mr Sensenbrenner and and the gentleman from Ohio we had a report from Mr Starr I remember very well we didn't have extensive fact witnesses we had the report we had evidence over in the Ford building that we could go over and look at privately idea a number of members did but gentleman has correctly summarized the situation I would yield back to the chair Chairman I yield back townsman general yields back to what purpose the sense of urgency and I must strike the last word. James Sensenbrenner Republican of Wisconsin is obvious you know after all you American public. This is a railroad. You know things have been going quickly but I think the real key here is the war of all of the denials of minority. Requests of here and in the Intelligence Committee. The Republicans in the president have not been able to put in live witnesses to be able to. Basically put together a defense and if you're going to have a trial you have to have both the prosecution and defense here we don't have a defense because of the rulings that have been made one of which was made just a few minutes ago by the chairman of this committee now let me say you know 1st of all. The hearings that were in the basement of the Capitol were secret hearings they were classified hearings none of the members who were in that hearing room could ethically go out and tell the public and the news media exactly what was said there and they probably could have been held before the Ethics Committee or worse if they attempted to do that. There were leaks that came out of there. None of the members could the other point is that the vast majority of members of the Judiciary Committee which has all the mature restriction over all proposed impeachments were not members of the 3 other committees and were not allowed to go in to the basement of the Capitol hearing room listen to what was going out and do see those live with distance. There are a number of my colleagues on this side of the aisle including Ms Les Gold Mr Graves that attempted to do that and chairmanship kick them out or would not allow them to go in there now. When you have a trial you really cannot make a determination on exactly whether the witnesses are telling the truth or exaggerating or mixing it up or spinning it some way or the hour without looking at them in person we don't have that opportunity there are a few select witnesses that were in the public hearings over the intelligence committee a couple of weeks ago that the intelligence committee does not have the jurisdiction I don't know whether to recommend the impeachment of anybody let alone the president of the United States. You know we've heard complaints about the fact that in the Clinton impeachment there were no fact witnesses Shabbat and I were there as were as Ms often a straggly of the cherubim. What happened there is that both sides were allowed to present whatever with this as they wanted to Kenneth Starr and all of the grunt work and putting together the facts he sent over $36.00 boxes of evidence which report over. 4 building that's not happened here the independent counsel It was appointed to look into President Trump as. Mr payment testified and that ended up being a big fizzle you know for what the Democrats wanted to do so all much of the most. After his testimony the cross-examination by members on both sides of the aisle and it is disappearing in the outer space they have to find something else let me say that everybody on both ends of the telephone call between President Trump and President Zelinsky as said very clearly there was no quid pro quo. More often there are no pressure that was put crayons I don't know how many times presidents when he has had to say that apparently it's not enough because minds on the other side of the aisle are close but that's what the facts are and the facts you know speak for themselves there was no impeachable offense here and mass Why article was on the impeachment and falling flat on its face and that it should be stricken and I support the amendment to strike it from a gentleman of all Io and yield back to trim and gentleman yields back the generally. Gentlemen in sight order the. Gentleman is regular Stargate and also just in case our sent colleagues the ranking member here Republican yes we did get a letter in the middle of hearing say oh well we just got a document dump on the weekend where the chairman told me well we're not going to read him anyway no a wee wee. Little His time is expired for purposes Jackson I just write the last word Mr Chairman. I think before I begin Sheila Jackson Lee Democrat of Texas question here that it is important to remind all of us that the president abused his power and is a continuing threat not only to democracy but to our national security we do not take this lightly we take it very seriously and I beg to differ with my dear friend as one who was here for the impeachment proceedings in 1908 along with my colleagues both Mr Sensenbrenner Mr Chavis inadmissable our friend let me be very clear of the distinctive difference that we had then at that time for the American people the special prosecutor is that was an independent statute. That allowed both Mr Girard ski during the next in proceedings and then Mr Starr to have an independent process of investigation the Congress was not privy to any of that investigation and on they proceeded they were not interfered with as Mr Malo was by the deal j. Because he was an employee of the Department of Justice and his employer his boss came out in characterize his report before he could even discuss it in the instance of the proceedings of $998.00 the Congress received a report just as both our friends on the other side of the hour and we in the majority receive reports from the impeachment inquiry committees who were investigatory committees they did their work yes in a classified setting as I imagine both Mr. Starr and Mr Jaworski had to do in certain instances they were like prosecutors they had witnesses that were not in the public and then of course there were 4 public hearings 17 witnesses firsthand witnesses who heard the call and testified not on any 2nd hand knowledge but firsthand knowledge. It is clear that we're dealing with a question of a continuing threat which is why we have to respond and let me be very clear I hold in my hands that unclassified transcript I beg to differ with my friends allow me just for a moment to tell you that in the call President of the Linsky said these sentences would also like to thank you for your great support in the area of defense for trying to continue to cooperate for the next step specifically we also want to be ready to buy javelins that's equipment military equipment from the United States for defense purposes Ukraine's in the midst of a war against a nation that shot down at least some of those alleged to be separatists using Russian weapons a commercial airliner This is a serious war we're our men and women with military in the military or on the ground trying to assist and here's the very next and the very next sentence is not yes let's get with the Department of Defense Let's review your request the very next sentence I would like you to do a favor though this is discussion about the fields the next sentence should have been. I think we are well aware of Europe difficult predicament going to have you talk to the secretary of defense but it said a couple of sentences later I would like to have the attorney general call you or your people and I'd like you to get to the bottom of the investigation so I would just. Offer to say. That. It is not frivolous. And with out facts that we proceed we proceed with facts and we take this in a very somber manner. Be happy to yield to the gentleman from I would just like to note that well while this was you listening to live special coverage of the impeachment markup from n.p.r. News this is $89.00 page k.p.c. See Pasadena 89.1. 90.3 k v.l.a. Coachella and 89.5. So that the highest death toll on any day in the Ukraine Russian war was August 7th of this year wow aid was being withheld so this had life and death consequences and I yield back to the general Very quickly let me say my predecessor Barbara Jordan said that impeachment is designed for the president and his hind ministers somehow to be called into account that is all we're doing on behalf of the American people and protecting the national security of this nation I your bank is generally yours ragman what purposes Mr Shadley like the last word journalist strikes last word generals regulars Thank you Mr Mario the ranking member just real quickly Miss Lady from California who just misstated something without address head on last not am under sector hail stated this was Perspective money it was not an affair it was no this is live special coverage of the impeachment from n.p.r. News Doug Collins here the ranking member for all this money did not stop that that is something that cannot continue to be perpetrated upon this world. Reclaiming my time Mr Chairman that the biggest difference in the Clinton impeachment and this one is that President Clinton committed a crime perjury this president isn't even accused of committing a crime the Constitution is pretty clear on what constitutes an impeachable offense treason bribery and other high crimes and misdemeanors it's not treason bribery and other high crimes and misdemeanors or whatever else Nancy Pelosi and Adam Schiff deem impeachable now I think we can. All agree that no president should have used the powers of his her office just like the chairman the better Republican of Ohio the powers of his office to obtain and publish the phone records of the president's personal attorney a member of the media and the ranking member of that same committee but that doesn't make alleged abuse of power a high crime or misdemeanor in their newly authored memo on constitutional grounds for impeachment the majority on this committee goes to great lengths to explain why abuse of power is an impeachable offense specifically mentioning it was one of the charges against both Richard Nixon and Bill Clinton what they don't mention is that the House of Representatives has never adopted alleged abuse of power as a charge in a presidential impeachment why because there is no criminal statute describing what alleged abuse of power actually is abuse of power is therefore a vague ambiguous term open to the interpretation of every individual because abuse of power lacks a concise legal definition there's a higher burden of proof on those pursuing such a charge to show the actions of the president rise to the level of impeachment I believed that Bill Clinton had abused the power of his office but we failed to convince our colleagues in the house and that particular charge was you rejected by the full House in this case the evidence provided is less convincing In fact I don't it's nonexistent 1st there was no quid pro quo 2nd it's a widely known fact that Ukraine is one of the most corrupt countries on the planet it's why Congress required the administration to certify that the Ukrainian government had taken steps to clean up corruption before military aid could be provided to the country President Trump was well aware of that fact and quite skeptical of giving Ukraine foreign aid long before the now famous July 25th phone call 3rd Ukraine.

Well that yours wrapping up or planning out your at 13 right now in fact send an e-mail to yours truly info at d.m. Radio dot biz or info at insight analysis dot com either way but the source for today amazing stories of Ai in practice of course we're talking about artificial intelligence it's one of the hottest topics in the world of enterprise technology and with good reason ai is everywhere these days it's really baked into lots of the platforms that we use online the big. Companies like Facebook and Google those guys are cranking away i like there's no tomorrow Ali Baba has some amazing stories but they're all some some companies have been using this stuff for years already and it's a really interesting way so we're going here from Rob shortages of a company called key and they've been running every business decision every major one through it and I enjoyed for years and they finally tip their hand and we're going to hear from Rob what's going on there it's going to be very exciting and Chad I got a from unama in the last day a Canadian company in the cannabis industry and I got to tell you we did some research at the beginning of the end of last year I should say to him promotions for d.m. Ready for this year and I was amazed at how much innovation there is in the cannabis industry I shouldn't be amazed because there's a lot of money and it's here in the states of course it's been legalized in many of the different states across the country even for recreational use I mean most states now have it legal for medicinal purposes and of course Canada has legalized it just over a year ago so lots of stuff happening in that space and you get to do it plants I love plants I'm a big botanist always been fascinated by plants and of course the Qantas flight a very special one and it's a very powerful one so let's talk a bit about Ai in practice 1st of all one of my favorite Montrose this year and I'm going to write a book about this I swear it is morale you know I think morale is the single most important component of any business or any life quite frankly if your morale is high you're doing well you can get stuff done you're happy you're productive if your morale is low you don't get a lot of stuff done and I think morale is been low in a lot of jobs for a long time now because they're very tedious they're very boring they're very error prone think about the data entry days remember that like in the ninety's but all these jobs that were data entry just people sit in a keyboards going clickety clickety clickety click clicking in stuff that was on paper that was the old fashioned way and of course o.c.r. Came along optical character recognition I was talking to a company called Abbie just a couple days ago who were a real pioneer in that space. So o.c.r. Came along and really facilitated the digital transformation process but it's a it artificial intelligence in particular is going to play a huge role especially when combined with high quality data enough data good people to train the algorithms that's a really important part and also automation so automation in and of itself I think is probably the most powerful technology set out there in the world today but if you combine it with automation intelligently that is some really remarkable stuff and that's going to change the game so the other thing I'll point out is that as I've said before in the media in particular the narrative is always wrong at least in some way and the narrative around ai is that it's going to take away jobs and so it's a terrible thing it's like the robots are going to take away jobs and that's just nonsense it's going to take jobs in new directions and the really what it's going to do especially when implemented efficiently is it's going to optimize and augment jobs so what used to be a fairly boring job is now going to be much more interesting job because Ai can tackle a lot of the really tedious boring stuff so there are lots of different algorithms out there we'll talk about some of them today on the show but the key to remember right off the bat is that Ai is really going to augment the current job function so when it's done properly it's going to help the human beings to much more interesting work much more fun work the kind of stuff that's challenging and exciting and interesting that's what we're going to be able to do if we leverage Ai effectively So with that let's bring in our 1st guest Rob or to is he's director of artificial intelligence at a company called Kenyans and Robbo so that to finally get you on the show we talked several months ago and I was blown away by what you folks are doing with Ai So 1st tell us a bit about yourself and Kenyans and this powerful engine you've been using for years now tell us all about it Rob. Yeah thanks a bunch Eric so you can see one of the. Companies that most people have probably never encountered before it's probably a half a percentage of the individuals to be listening to a program like this to be familiar with the company name but we've been called one of the most important companies that no one's heard of and part of what we do is we're actually behind the scenes in most of the innovators in a kind of hair quoting it for those who can't you know they can see me. In the technology space and what we actually do is we make most of the sensing technology that drives automations everything like an autonomous car or you think of a drone and you think of most airplanes now actually are flying a lot of it through autopilot and through autonomous robotics manufacturing things on those lines so we're supplying a lot of the devices that are doing the thinking behind the scenes for those piece of equipment and then now as today's moving forward we think about sensors there pretty much in just about anything that's got a battery on it you have ringing doorbells 2 cell phones 2 new microwave that have more buttons that you know to do with are those are all the difference then thing technologies and Kiev has always been in the forefront of that space but we have a little bit of an interesting story so we're a 45 year old company we're actually the 5th largest company in Japan so just to give some people's I'm kind of clarification as to where the heck we are and such but 4540 some odd years ago our founder talk is obvious on kind of came up with this mindset that business is a science and what we started to do is start to realize that you can actually make equations and calculate just about everything in the business world and then this isn't news to a lot of people from marketing standpoint or a sales standpoint but we were starting to identify that you could do it for everything your supply chains your h.r. Your IP. And so we started in in 1904 we actually built an internal c.r.m. Software. Part of the reason we think that one kind of fun as a date is if you actually research the around. It's actually act was the 1st c.r. Out in $186.00 so 2 years prior to we actually had built an internal feed our own software and we actually just called it direct sales were a direct sales company so we had real boring names for it but we've actually been utilizing that system iterations of it over the last 3035 ish years. And then about 13 years ago one of the up happening was we started to get heavily into how do we analyze all the information I was invited c.r.m. And that the r.p.s. We just started at the point we had so much data and we we were slowing down our ability to analyze it and so we made this decision to try to move it to a field of data science the term data scientist however didn't actually happen until it was read in a Massachusetts paper in 2001 so we're down we're right at that good crunch of where the technology was it was starting and was impossible to hire people so we ended up doing as we did the same thing the camp has always done whenever we encounter a problem we just automate it so we had a big thing our 1st Ai platform and we deployed it internally. And it worked really well as we built another and we built another and we built another and so for the past allez in Issue years we've now turned most of the data driven decision making over to these softwares and it's been fantastic as it's been it's been great. That's so amazing and can you talk about like what kinds of decisions because this could be anything right like what how to price something War a fork a project or talk about some examples that someone can implement that folks at your company could actually use the engine to do. So some of them are real beginner steps so we've tended to find is different AI's work really well in the different steps of the dishes making process or because I want this this Condit is a I like a court on a. Type of thing where they just talk to it and does everything and it doesn't really work at least not in today's tech but some of the stuff that we're doing is it or of process what I mean by that is we'll ask one of the core systems the basic question one of our philosophies is as engineers and if it has an engineer listening will probably recognize that we're sort of lazy we want to get the most impact for the least amount of work so a lot of people will do it will say hey I want to increase sales of this product or I want to increase lead generation or I want to increase our market share and we'll run that through one of the eyes which will criticize different ideas for what would generate the largest impact on the least amount of effort. And so I may end up saying look down increase sales of a product and a look and say Ok so this product we're realizing you've got a pricing deficiency here and you're losing opportunities based on pricing I would suggest build a pricing model. From there if we want to go that route and this is where the humans will get involved we've got to look at that and figure out well I don't know if I really want to modify pricing but let's say we do well then run that through another model that will look and say Ok what is going to be the most effective price point and what's going to get the highest profitability with the highest amount of sales effort sales return but we use it in everything so another good use case in our h.r. Group what we do is we actually run all the resumes through one of our Ai systems and it just looks for specific keywords and context inside those resumes and then looks at all of our current and past employees and what their valuation scores were what bonuses did they get if they were a sales person will sort of sales results that they have and we're starting we've created these models that says Ok these types of individuals significantly better performers than others I'll give you a real interesting story this is one of those pieces of information we were incredibly close lipped about for many many many many years. But. I think this was about 70 years ago we had a little bit of retention problem wasn't bad but we wanted to increase the retention on our sales people and so what we did was we looked in the day we said we sicked one of the Eyes on the problem we said Ok help us figure out how to make people stay longer retention is not a uncommon request. And it came back with a really interesting thing so when you go through an interview process your key and you go through a number of things you get a resume you get. You go through a technical survey you go through some demonstration examples you have to do we can do a profile personality profile and you get certain scores on that and if you get a perfect score you can get what's $120.00 points gosh comes in it's $12.00 It's a perfect score and we only get maybe 2 or 3 percent of people that come through it that at that level. The Ai actually told us that in order crease retention we should stop hiring those individuals while. And so basically it said wait wait we sat down I remember literally because I was that in the room for this and we looked at the output and we went Wait. Don't hire the highest scoring people. Wow And it set out all the rest of the results to us and basically it was what I came up with was hey these are individuals who either a they know they're really good and they continue shopping for other opportunities or they're getting poached by. By headhunters and so their tenure ship with a company is low in fact it's so low that in some cases as a sales person we're not recouping the profit from their sales versus the investment we put into them at the new individual and so when we looked at the data was like yeah this is absolutely totally correct Now what's fun about that I tell the story every now and then how many h.r. Managers do you think would ever sit down and go you know what I should do today I should figure out if we should continue hiring the best applicants. That's counterintuitive right. That's you know wild and you know you actually really like we like that yeah go ahead. I was just saying that's why I really like the idea of utilizing machines in an a i n m l to make these business this isn't their unbiased they don't care will write for so this is one of my favorite concepts to talk about with respect to Ai number one machines don't lie number 2 machines don't care they're like kids right now like 3 year old kids will tell you exactly what's on their mind there's just no filter it always will and just shoots right out the mound like you know if you're fat What if you get say that yes again. That's great and you actually reminded me of as the interesting statistic which is that I think it was a guy named Stu Silverman who's been on the show before knows a whole lot about he's a university guy knows a lot about training algorithms for Ai and he said that it turns out only about 2 percent of people are really good at the job of training in the algorithm the think it's a simple job you know click Yes for if this is muffin know if it's a dog for example that famous mean that you see about a guy but his point was that very few people are diligent and studious and careful enough to do that job well and let's face it you don't want to train your algorithms poorly because then they won't work well right can you talk at the Can you talk too much about training algorithms and is the ai that you've used How are they trained. Yeah so the training is absolutely critical if you think of an ai they're like a newborn child and so when when you start learning to walk right what is the percentage likelihood that a new newborn is going to be able to successfully walk I'm pretty much a 0 give it a year or so of trying to to walk and then you're at 10 percent and then you start chair surfing you're 20304050 in that by the time you end up at 4 or 5 years old chances of falling are down in the one percent. Tiles and that's training day that every time that we are doing anything to try to stand up for we're looking at the world around us that's the training data that's coming in the same thing for an ai system you have to train it on good data and as we had a little bit of an advantage that we had started collecting data all the way back in in 1904 when we built that internal c.r.m. And we sort of knew early on that business is a science so gathering that data was you know just kind of part of our company and the other advantage that we had is sensors have become ubiquitous to the rest of the world so if we're trying to work with an airport on getting baggage from point a to point b. Well we have to understand that industry we've got to collect that data we've got to train the models around that and then at the same time if we want to go make cans of soup Well we've got to understand that and then oh by the way let's also go help help help the Pentagon out with plotting satellite orbits. So it's sort of data we had to grab just tons and tons and tons of different data to be able to train the models but we have the advantage that we're in all those different sectors so we've got the relationships to get that data to try to be able to train the models on it. Well that's awesome and I have to say you're in a great position to be able to train some of these algorithms very acutely and very efficiently because as you suggest you've got sensors everywhere to made this is one of the best use cases for ai because again machines don't lock in there you can have some random feedback when let's say sensors break for example but by and large a sensor is going to give you a very clear and realistic view of what the heck's going on out there in the real world and to your point Rob Key end's has sensors everywhere you've got sensors all over creation and so the and the beautiful thing is the more that you gather the more time you spend building these models training these models implementing them having them learn get better and better deploying the challenger models for example you just get a knack for this stuff over time and you get better and better at it and so folks we're going to go to break here in just a 2nd but don't touch that dial You're listening to the longest running show in the world on data that's right right here on d.m. Right now we're talking all about Ai remember the narrative is wrong and I is your friend I promise you a has to be good stuff we'll be right back you're listening to d.m. Radio.

Remember that guy who ran for mayor of New York a few years ago I don't remember his name if only there was some sort of tool at my disposal where I can type in a question and get an answer anyway his campaign slogan was the Rent Is Too Damn High It really is next on Dan's life think you've got a good radio show idea dab radio network can help you with your podcast or radio show find out more by emailing sales at dab Radio Network dot com Yes The Rent Is Too Damn High in my neighborhood you'd better make a minimum of $100000.00 a year to even think of buying a home and a taxes buddy but me being someone who actually has a heart I couldn't help but feel it in my throat when I read that those working full time at a minimum wage can't even afford the rent on a place on average anywhere in the country without paying more than 30 percent of what they make on housing even if you put it up to 40 percent I guess you could swing it but you are entering a danger zone where you can't save a nickel which means you're going sometime to have a catastrophic financial event so where these folks where they can afford a place isn't where anyone would chooses their 1st or 2nd place to live so how do they live you ask well roommates of course multiple people in the home working working more than 40 hours what do we do I don't know there's enough light out there that it seems that we could bring some new inventory to the market but who's going to do it developers the government I seem to recall someone saying Once upon a time well he was that the poor will always be with us and there's nothing that we can do about it. All right let's check in live with Mark Westwood down at Green con dispensary live in in living black and white it's Mark. Have a good time here gathering talking dispensary you know cannabis is legal and safe and accessible and it's everywhere now you know and particularly the green Konkana suspensory independent privately owned certified legal can of this dispensary every 21 Years or Older that they're here they're open is a grand opening this weekend Friday Saturday and Sunday easy to find such a down to a you know a good wondering what are you know you got into back you know this is out and out and you say it is a canvas dispensary and they've got that's a thing here m j 2 is here it's a free dispensary shut off you know you can try to set up soon I'm a license Spencer you for 25000000 left your transportation dispenser just downstream think you were several letters and then you know we say I know I'm Facebook and j 2 or step one yeah that's Tom are you convinced that also you don't want to miss the best it is. A good thing to do you know you can find cannabis in c.b.d. C.b.d. And him anywhere in California now even at the local gym you know local stores where I want I believe have seen video you know it's not something that is you know it under a cloud now we've got some clouds today it is dry it is not wet it is not raining it's actually kind of cool by state today out here easy to fly and all you have to do is hit the 215 freeway exit really knocks. If you're good and south so less if you're. Still reading and you know Yahoo. First tour is only entered the 1st to see a lot of mobile offices and I assume on a big lot just go down right along there is a seat belt. We underwrote by the end of it. You'll see the big re. Cannabis. That. They want to see what. The gorilla in respect to our closest animal cousin believed to possess human like depth and understanding. Cannabis dispensary of Paris aspires to develop the same understanding. Congers a destination personal experience with great service for everyone right off the 215 freeway and early knocks road in green Kong in safe legal and easy Ms agreeing gong dot com for orders you must be 21 green Kong is the place for you to experience green Kong's exotic surroundings from the jungle like setting made in soothing light green Kong is a go to distant nation for the c.b.d. Or cannabis curious for the kind of sewer google green gong dot com or visit bring gongs brand new exciting new location in Paris California says and then offer a recommendation of just the strain actual chemical makeup or the product. Right as the markets continue to evolve. Yeah that's just fascinating to me and you know the thing is it takes time to build up a repository of knowledge about something like this and it's it's difficult if you anyone who studies western medicine it's difficult to get to the bottom of even pharmaceuticals and how they operate and what they do and all the different side effects and so forth but one of the nicer things about a more natural approach is that you theoretically will have less side effects is that something that you talk about or have discovered in your research. So we aim to reduce the amount of negative side effects and you are right there is we're still collecting a lot of data there's still a lot of data that we need to collect with our 1st application was really going out to see Will people tell us one time giving us information about the products the consuming how much they're consuming him and and how they feel after them should I certainly working through that to collect all of that data and then really trying to understand what are the positive and negative effects and trying to eliminate those negative effects that we are making. Right that's great that's really cool stuff and then you say you base a lot of the research on survey data is that right so you get feedback from the clients they tell you this worked at work this hour a spot of that's how to respond at all this gets fed into some kind of a machine learning where jewels are right. Exactly so we're collecting a lot of direct feedback from the client to say which works for them what didn't work for them and then when we're coming through one of our other platform Nama standard for telemedicine application we're able to see very specifically what they're talking to the doctors about nurse practitioners or what are other elements and try to match up that data for the new patients. Now that's great now how much how much data do you collect on the patients do you collect any information on the kind of food they eat lifestyle anything like that or is it mostly just data on their response to specific strains. And the data on the response anonymized data on the response to specifics to. I see so how not only strange but we're also talking about product as well like there's the strain and think about that there's a new user right there's already thousands of different strains of the of cannabis and as cannabis continues to evolve when you're going to people are going into some dispensary lately you're saying is the not only different strains they're also cannabis products extract edible all of these other than for looking at again what what's actually in this product and how is it affecting your body. And yeah that's really cool stuff so what have been some of the more surprising results that you've seen as you've used machine learning what what really stands out in terms of the impact you've been able to generate using some of these modules it's I think the largest one is the thing helping really helping people have that 1st positive experience avoiding the 1st negative experience and seeing what that doing or block you failed to be perfect again but. The more people have a positive experience the more likely they are to purchase so it's helping drive personalization helping drive revenue sure and prevent so in. You know my wife actually has a medical card here for a fairly serious condition that she has and we go down to the dispensary and the people are very very nice this is in Pennsylvania but nonetheless kind of to something you mentioned before the show. There are so many opinions being woven into what people suggest you try and there's there's not yet a really solid foundation of clinical information to kind of guide those decisions but I think we're moving in that direction right it seems to me that you folks are kind of at the forefront of that in particular so do you I'm just kind of curious do you also share the insights that you've gathered about particular strains of particular side effects and so forth with the broader community or is that just with your clients or how does that work. Right now with just with our client we are talking with a couple University Canada to start sharing on them but right now we're leveraging it to public life. And I should also say that none of the clients also help doctors and there's practitioners right there's again hundreds of strains and we think about what happened today in Canada. When you go see a doctor they're writing a prescription for Canada that's here you go and there's your recommendation but you know it's basically the equivalent of going to see a doctor and then reading you the equivalent of a painkiller right do I take ibuprofen or do I take Oxy code which which one so we're we're really trying to help the doctors understand this is what the nurse practitioners as well the here are the different varieties of Anderson here's how the different combinations different team of our profiles can help different symptoms and you leveraging help doctors and then help the patient to remove some back and fusion in the market. That's that's fantastic and I'm just glad that we're getting a nice solid baseline of information now upon which we can build and the more industrialized that industry becomes it seems to me the more quality control you're going to get the more information you're going to get to be able to base decisions that are meaningful and accurate and point if someone has that bad experience the 1st time around they're not coming back so if you can find a way to figure out what ails them what is the problem you're having I mean this is a trend all around the world now we were talking about this before the show in Portugal they even legalize or decriminalize most drugs I think it's like 15 years ago it's a while ago now and from what my research showed they demonstrated wonderful results in terms of crime going down in terms of all sorts of different factors and then you know that's just good news right so now we're seeing it here in the states of course can and it's been legal for just over a year now so we're just now starting to understand the ramifications of all this but I will say I find it for other musing that somehow someway we found. A path to a path to saying that a plant is against the law course type of it's possession of the plant the thing is right all right possession is 90 percent of the laws they say but it's a plant that's been here a lot longer than human beings have been here so it's just kind of arrogant for he was they know this plan is against the law for plan things like really I thought I was doing just fine. But that's cool this is cool stuff so how big is the company how many employees do you have or like what can tell us about not much day. We have about $130.00 employees truck and a lot of our engineering team. Men our engineering team there is about 60 people. And we're fairly distributed in Ukraine Russia where you're not really troubled if I write about my weekend now but these problems yeah that's great we had fact you some developers from the Ukraine and they do a fantastic job I really really appreciate what they do and you can be federated now right there one of our new senior analyst ever and checker out of Silicon Valley actually out of the open area we were talking about this trend and what was her name or some Meyer from Yahoo I think really went down the wrong road in the silicate in this trying to bring everybody back into the office and he's saying why do you want your developers in the office because we can work at home and we can be on slackly can be talking to each other there's really no reason for us to be sitting here amidst the sales people in the marketing people in the admin people cetera and he joked that it never fails you put your headphones on you about to go out of his own someone taps you on the shoulder hey we want to talk to you about this new product years like oh I was just about to get there you can actually because because when you're an engineer when you're coding for a living it's so important to stay focused he was joking he said whatever they tap at the shoulder that's going to be a bug. That's going to be a problem right there sure but it's so cool and so how long have you been using the machine learning modules just in general is that right from the outset of the company was a part of the strategic plan. That we started we were initially a hardware company right selling of my head shop selling songs vaporizers Deborah this kind of thing we ran across the company called Find by a person location shame on a company. And started leveraging them and some of our e-commerce sites and as we started looking in getting more from moving from a head shop and working directly with the cannabis plant so that sort of asked good questions to the teams over at the fire and we started talking through some different things be able to leverage this with cannabis and through the conversations we decided to acquire them and instead of working on generalized algorithms really focusing in the algorithms on to cannabis directly. We saw very fine to buy but really focusing on solving the cannabis problem and how do we remove some of the confusion in the markets and help people make better decisions well and to kind of help our audience understand what you do with these things you know really the way I describe it as a I does a couple of different things or 2 large buckets of functionality into which they fall and it seems to me one is basically segmentation or classifications trying to understand different groups or different departments or different segments within a large overall group and the other one is optimizing a decision point and that 2nd one. Theoretically improve over time again if you train it properly right so what you want to use these algorithms for is to understand what you're looking at and then find some way to optimize a decision point in your case which product to recommend to this customer versus which product to recommend to that customers at about right. Exactly what the exactly correct and whether that be a different strain of cannabis or a different browser cartridge a different style the cream of. Think your baby cries or for bong or Deborah. And so wild and so do you get into consumption methods to like edibles verses tinctures verses you know the the flowers they now call on the arses of the pens and all that and what can you share with us about that. Share through the application we are asking what the mode of production is right so we want to be able to understand how are people who are consuming cannabis edible or a teacher I was affecting their body versus the people that are consuming the vaporizer or using combustion method burning a joint or smoking a bong. So we're looking at all of these different kind of different pieces each one has a little bit different effect. Right now you're eating it out of all I actually think that are happening that kind of moving through your body that change dramatically for those who have both typically helpful and so they're not. Really made really change when it works in the body really want to help people understand . Yeah that's so cool and so the the end consumer who purchases it purchases some particular product they don't really see the machine learning they just get the benefit of what's happening right can you talk about where rubber meets road how the machine learning actually affects some business process is it that baked into your system as you're looking up as the doctor is looking up what particular product to recommend to a customer under the hood the ai is running and helping shepherd that doctor toward the right decision is that how it works. So I think the 1st punch point would be with our cold recommender and that happening today these are patients that move through that flow a.m.d. Right so they meet with a nurse practitioner or a doctor the telemedicine they have all of the element that both of them expect if they're a doctor we put those into the machine learning I'll go they get recommended to specific strength or product you know what about I love it equipment the good stuff I will pick up face too after the break here folks we're talking to a couple experts and machine learning in artificial intelligence one does sensors the other does cannabis I love it are all over the map today folks on d.m.

Welcome back to yammer 8 years your host Eric Cavanaugh. Right. Back here on Dmn radio talking all things artificial intelligence for sensors and for plants we're just talking to Chad I got a from Naama Bay who walk us through phase one of how machine learning helps his company shepherd it the right product to the right customer and right cannabis product I should say and are about to go into phase 2 when the break came around chat so share with us the phase 2 of that process. Shared the 2 after they had met in the customer has that initial purchase and they're able to give us the back after the how did that really affect them and provided them an additional feedback on that running that that additional feedback were sucking in that data and then as they were i was our site can mark by the product grid information and data that they see as being shipped based on what are the right for taking in that data and adjusting it showing the product with the chemical products in the bar profiled the date that works best for them shipping that product to the top of the grid moving those products up to the top of the search the more in front of their faces and maybe offer better and better better recommendations at the. 2 major areas Yes So as the results come in and you get feedback from your clients Yes that's what I wanted yes that's what I wanted that's when you're building out the profile of a successful recommendation which you can then apply it back to the algorithm to train it even better and thus over time directly gets better and better and at identifying the correct product for the correct use case right exactly I think that that. Yeah that's so cool I just love the stuff and that will bring Rob or his back in from Kenyans and Rob I really am just amazed by the story and I'm so glad that your founder decided to tip his hand and show the world what's going on but there are some other reasons why you're now in this big p.r. Campaign right to share with the business world the power of Ai assistants and once again Cannes has been doing this for 12 plus years now so we have Siri we have Alexa they're relatively new to the scene but Cannes was was way out ahead of the game and it shows in your bottom line right so tell us a bit about the new product that you're spending out. It's not really even so much a new product what we've decided is now that we've kind of done this for about 11 years and it worked fairly well we're decided that there's still a lot of companies we'd like to see better at data driven initiatives and so we took a tool that we had built internally and we said Alright let's bring it out to the open market space so high that Japanese word which means to change and it's a product that was internally designed to convert new people who joined the company into full data analysts so you can put somebody down and in just a couple of minutes get them up to the level of somebody who had 5 or 6 years of data analytics experience and we're bringing that open to the open market kind of an injury entry product of that 1st step and depending on how people take that we may look at opening up the rest of our Ai fleet to the open market as well. Yeah that's really cool and Kaya is the actual Ai assistant right so remind me I think than you say every employee has he has her home or her own instance of Kaiser how or. Yeah basically it's within key and everybody has the ability to access Caius So it's like everybody has their own dedicated data analyst So if you ever want to ask a question on how do I do this or do that you just reach out to Ca and you say hey I want to increase. Traffic to our website and Guy will look through all the data sets in and says Oh Will these are the types of pages that are the most interesting we should add more of these pages and I found a bunch of individuals who aren't being reached out to let's add them to our next marketing campaign and does all that in a couple of minutes when you're up and running. Yeah I love that I mean and so here's what I love the most about all of these data driven initiatives especially Ai enabled ones is that you're always going to find something that you didn't expect at least that's my impression in all the times I've played around with data and analytics there's always something that kind of jumps out at you and the point is especially with use cases that are very complex and have many different facets or many features it could create some covariance or some predictable predictability potion to if you will you always have to find something interesting and new and author this over to Chad has that been your experience that you have a theory about what's going on but there's always something in the data that's like wow I didn't expect to see Dad what do you think Chad. For sure for sure we do do that quite a merge back being the one to really like or initial data that we just one strain or another will be particularly popular or won't be all that popular I mean the different populations really gravitating toward one strain or another so we've seen quite a bit actually. But there is one strange observation I made just last night of the night before in fact so for those who use Google mail especially if you use the clients like in g. Mail itself if you use that client through the web browser you may have noticed now Jeanne mail is suggesting the rest of your sentence for you which is pretty interesting in itself that some kind of machine learning module they have underneath where it literally has just tracked all the different things that people write all the different language but what I found kind of odd is that now we're going to see the machines in the ai in particular kind of shepherding and maybe to a certain degree calcifying how we communicate with each other because people will just accept that certain people will just accept what it what it suggests because they don't type necessarily that fast and I would type as myself so I prefer to type things out as I want to articulate them I don't often use the suggestions because frankly for me and I think it's like a control right here something that you hold on a macro to accept the recommendation it actually takes about as long way to do that as it would just to type it out normally because I can type quickly but also to sub to rob but there is an interesting skew now that we're going to see because of recommendations becoming so so persistence What do you think about that that's where you have to kind of shake up the algorithms now and again to kind of rattling a little bit to keep it honest or keep it dynamic What do you think about that Rob . There's a there's an interesting law inside to stick finishes kind of a lot of large numbers and it's interesting when you start getting into how human psychology works that we're actually fairly predictable creatures when it comes to the larger pool the larger data so while we look at an individual we say yeah there's definitely something to shake up in that reteamed it is interesting because you were saying there the. Terminology is in the Word and Burbage and such that it is. Individuals are using it becomes more and more the voice of the collective right because as we get larger numbers and a larger sample set that kind of averages out of a really long average value. When you start really getting deeper into that this takes of it there's a lot of ways that you can manipulate some of that you can take smaller populations and multiply the input so that they go into the average and try to shake it up but I think one of the best ways that I've seen some machine learning models change themselves is start off with a base code and say Here's a sample of what the larger population does let's tweak this a little more towards you let's say we use only 50 percent of what the global population does and 50 percent comes directly from you and we can get a hybrid of both and that's kind of the best way that I love to see machine learning used. Yeah it is a combination I think this is the real key right you're never going to see a I just take off by itself and take over the business and just run with it or if someone does that they there will be some other pleasant results but I'll throw this back over to Chad there is a real dynamic between the human and the algorithm of the human in the machines just like you have with riding a horse or driving a car or using substandard machinery using equipment using tools it's the same thing so really this is just the next set of technologies that are augmenting what human beings do and there's something to be said for understanding the rhythm of the ai that you're using understanding when to use it how to use it where to use it when not to rely on it and of course I should point out that artificial intelligence when it makes predictions will not always be correct Ragen not going to get a 100 percent correct predictability capability in your Ai and it's important to remember that to this is going to suggest things and of course have to watch out for overfitting the models but real quick chat up right over to you there is this real key components of leveraging Ai fact of Lee that involves how the humans do it and what they do with it and just in general how they interact with the ai right Chad. For sure and when we look at our. Number. How we're we're making recommendations going to put them in clinical or using that are met the doctor in the right so the hope very narrow down the focus of showing them to thousands it's time for n.b.c.

Numbers in Africa have decreased from over 200002 less than 20000 and that over a century ago the world's tiger population exceeded 100000 and now there are less than just 4000 we have lost 957 percent of the world's tiger population in just one century So aside from these glaring statistics how significant of a threat is wildlife crime not only to iconic endangered species like the elephant but to all different species and ecosystems across the planet yet it's I could not agree more I mean I there are many speeches like like you mentioned Tiger like elephants rhinos angling that long least there are many species dead there a good chance that they will never see the effects of climate change because they would not be alive by the time crime is the number one threat to many many species not like the 8 iconic speeches that you have in my head like elephants and rhinos and tigers but he's also it's also about illegal logging and illegal fishing so it's combined environmental crime is I think one of the most important get not the most important trust that we are facing right now and the problem is that it's something it's a problem that is connected to why we have been failing to face this problem for a front of a case is that we we still see this as an environmental problem because animals are involved because forest and peaches are involved but in reality it's a crime problem with capital c. And until we don't have that sweet we'll never be able to fight back as we should. Right it's because people see it as an environmental problem they. They they think it's somehow less than which is really insane because the environment literally sustains life itself and keeps us. Reviving sigh I really appreciate you I mean pointing that out it's wide like crime combined with illegal fishing and illegal logging is the 4th largest criminal enterprise on the planet you know after drug smuggling counterfeiting and human trafficking the 4th largest criminal enterprise we're talking about. Between $1250000000000.00 a year so it's a it's a serious thing and pretty serious people are involved so it's not about you know the poor people in the bush killing it out of fun it is a part of the. Issue it's actually a very small part because actually crime is actually a breeze and the drivers up this crimes are actually very wealthy people create organization in the criminal syndicates and King pains and you know very dangerous people doing all sort of crimes at the same time we with our work we work in now in 3 continents Africa Asia and Latin America and most of our targets you know we investigate white light crime we collect intelligence on the electron does what we do and many of our targets are involved in other crimes including drug trafficking including human trafficking and money laundering it fake documents and the reason is because it's very very Profitable Moment a crime with very low risk because most countries are still I'm prepared to face it and today you know the presence of even militias even terrorist groups like al Shabaab in Somalia is actually involved in was involved a lot in ivory trafficking because make a lot of money and we you know risk very little. Thank you for making that differentiation between you know impoverished people say in the Bush versus these very organized cartels and mafia has and things like that I appreciate that and I want to talk about that a bit more later on in the interview. So my next thought is that you know ironically but perhaps unsurprisingly we see a spike in the illegal export of certain species around the same time that they achieve recognition as endangered species for example in 2010 the European Union banned all egg. Sports of European Eagle declaring it critically endangered but following this announcement there was an immediate spike in Eagle export from the eastern United States coast Similarly the near extinction of the Chinese but was led to the poaching of the total in the Gulf of California so I'm wondering how is trafficking actually exacerbated by the banning of critical endangered species and what does this require in terms of foresight around what species are perhaps not currently endangered because of their location but may soon become so. That's a good question short answer is dead. You know many of these species simply become endangered because of coaching and trafficking because of wildlife crime and it seems like that unless they are you know the numbers are you know getting really low nobody really care and including you know into Indymedia it's for example in the mind of the people lions in Africa are not 1000000 dangers while there they are facing incredible pressure you know from hunting and trophy hunting and trafficking of bones and fangs and and meat for a you know for the Asian market so. My feeling is that if there's if an animal is is not really in danger Fortunately it doesn't you know there's not enough attention around it so criminals can continue for years destroying the population until they're sometimes too late example of it ditto to our buying in the Gulf of California and you know I don't know how many of you knows about you know the key to a crisis with a bucket that is the smallest and rarest forepaws it's sort of a whale they leave only in the Gulf of California in the Sea of Cortez and they and they are where you know they are maybe between $20.30 individuals left in the whole Gulf of California they used to be hundreds and the reason is that the the market as a by catch. Fish or fish does go to our bites swim bladder species is very very expensive and on the black market in China and the by catch is this dolphin and only now everyone is actually waking up and say wow we just have only 20 left and and only now they're finally started to see this problem as a criminal problem because until believe me until not long ago it just it was just sort of illegal fishing but you know with poor. Fisherman and their lack of law enforcement and you know it's you know the day was about an enormous and so not that serious in our investigation actually show that there are many a cartels operating in the ira now one single fishes $5000.00 we're talking about millions of dollars so it's a former narco traffickers are now working together with Chinese traffickers and as you can imagine it's a whole different feeling it's a completely different situation is very dangerous people are actually involved people getting killed just because it's a lot of money and in and keep eyes in the middle of those days and every ear numbers are going down and down but this is a typical example of the species that almost below the radar progressively does appear in front of our eyes extinction in real time I don't know maybe we are sometimes bombarded with all those you know emerge not only you know human emergency but you know we know about the elephant we know about the rhino we know about a tiger so many others many other species and many other crimes related crime rate the problems is certainly a challenge for us pretty much all fixated with the same 2 tree species. Perhaps we can shift to the importance of an intelligence led approach to wildlife crime now the elephant only which you cofounded clarifies that an intelligence led approach is necessary to foster a proactive impactful and really disruptive approach to conservation models so I'd love if you could begin by sharing how the work of e.l. Differs from previous conservation models and how can intelligence led efforts serve as an opportunity to be more inclusive and less exploitative to communities that have been otherwise targeted under historical conservation models Yeah well I mean I will you know link my my answer to something that touch the force about you know poachers and people getting exploited by tropical. In my opinion and this is one of the most important reason we have been trading collectively in the us because to face this problem in a different way as that everyone media N.G.O.s gone or as the public they have been obsessed and focused on the very 2 ends up the supply optos supply chains you know we work in terms of illegal supply chain doesn't really matter if it's a rhino horn or ivory if it's angling it's good to our fish doesn't really matter there is always a supply chain in the league has a play chain with all region transit and destination countries and everyone is obsessed with the 2 ends of the supply chain on the one hand you you find the poacher and it's easy to you know to consider poachers the villain you know that the people that you have to hate and that you possibly want you want to kill them or jail them because they are physically those who kill the enemy or everyone is fixated with their on on the other end to supply chain which is destination countries let's try to change. Dyment Talib buyer is with billboards and awareness campaigns let's use a labs and things like that nobody's actually looking right in the middle of the supply chain where they're really neighbors and drivers profit from everything. And here where intelligent comes if you look at other global threats like terrorism like narcotrafficking like weapons of mass destruction not even organized crime intelligence is always at the very heart of your strategy to fight back you cannot even dream to fight back terrorism or not to traffic without intelligence when you look at environmental crime despite being the 4th largest criminal enterprise in the in the work there's no intelligence nobody is doing intelligence live because you know for governments governments usually don't like other kinds of intelligence because you know they feel uncomfortable because you know they want to control information and for their regular N.G.O.s it's too difficult you know if you look at other global threats like terrorism like narcotrafficking like weapons of mass destruction organized crime intelligence you need intelligence to fight back intelligence is at the very heart of your strategy to fight back you cannot dream to fight international likely trafficking or terrorism without intelligence because true intelligence you know who does what and when you know things which is at the you know the base to understand what is the best strategy to fight an environmental crime there that you don't find any sort of intelligence work by anyone we think we are the only ones basically and governments to date is not a priority is not a big priority environmental crime so they don't set up intelligence services dedicated to environmental crime and also they don't they usually feel uncomfortable within their you know intelligence work that they cannot control foreign N.G.O.s is too difficult beginning from their mindset you. Even to understand what intelligence means so most N.G.O.s are you know they say to other kind of conservation work in the field and if they deal with wildlife crime environment crime they they do awareness they do maybe capacity building training but nobody does real professional intelligence work I mean long term on the color of for a show in Spain at collecting all kind of intelligence kind of information producing intelligence that work with crime and Ali So it's intelligence is it's basically collecting information 247360 degrees for ever on anything and anyone and if you do a good work you produce actionable intelligence and this actionable intelligence can be shared with law enforcement can be used for an investigation but you know intelligence and investigation is 2 different things and that's the main problem in my opinion actually I believe this is the problem so right now we're fighting environmental crime globally as boyscout. Just you know by trying to kill and jail the poachers who are you know as you can imagine easily replaceable and very often as exploited as the any most by the drop because or billboards and using celebs you know to tell people or Please don't buy ivory please respect elephants and i believe me I've been to China many many times I've met truck because I met by Year's Day They don't care so much about any message that we sent from here so this is why our organization is focused entirely on intelligence collection the investigation as well we talk just in terms of crime and we talk to governments actually just in terms of crimes we share a lot of confidential information about high level targets so people individuals are going to zation trafficking wide life globally and we share this information with Chinese authorities with us out or it is. Mexican authorities tyo door it is a can you know it or it is because our job is to do their job is what to do what they are not doing so we left an actual league is unique in our league not only in what we do but also who we are we 'd are you know our core team is made up of you know former CIA former f.b.i. Former law enforcement form a crime analyst we are not the classic you know we are in a geo but d.n.a. Is very very different is actually more similar to intelligence agency because we consider vital to know as much as possible on those crimes and some guys you know the current approach is just you know very very superficial they just connecting to a few dots on the surface without knowing that below those thought are trying to guys birds that you have to know. Yeah that makes so much sense because the intelligence that you and the. Crew are able to collect like what you said was actionable intelligence that's it's not just a few dots but it's taking it to the to the extreme and taking it to the edge of the knowledge so that there can be strategies and implementation solutions are solutions implemented so I really I really am excited by this and it's very yeah it's riveting to to hear about the work that you all are doing and you know now has how is preparing for this interview I was reminded of just how absolutely absurd and appraised to this venture is that when we trace it to demand we find that cheetah cubs are shipped to the United Arab Emirates to be sold as pets there Instagram or that marine life is literally lifted from Hawaiian reefs a flown to l.a. And then to Miami and then to Russia where they're sold as pets yet as absurd as it is a wildlife crime is like you were saying earlier it's the. World's 4th largest criminal enterprise and in 2016 the value is estimated somewhere between $91.00 and $250000000000.00 So I would really love to hear more about what sort of revenue is generated not only in wildlife crime but also through the bribes that are necessary to facilitate this work you know where is the money coming from to continue to finance such lavish and truly absurd imports and exports . Yeah it's a chain is that that's why it's very we always suggest to look at this problems in terms of supply chains Ok there is the supply chain of ivory their supply chain of rhino all. And like in any other supply chain not just illegal supply chains are always players you know act or stat are more important than others who actually drive the whole thing so they demand for these kind of products doesn't count only from the very very end consumers maybe a guy in China buying I don't know ivory chopsticks It's not that simple because a lot of demand is actually fueled by the traffickers now for example the most important white like truck because in the work are based in Southeast Asia so Thailand Vietnam Laos Cambodia the most important while the traffickers are there and they have been operating from there for ages so they are very deep they know exactly what they're doing they can pretty much smuggle out of Africa Asia and even Latin America whatever you want they have you know they have the right channels you know exactly who to bribe and when to bribe and they and they combine it with other kind of trafficking very interesting thing that you see in Southeast Asia with destructive could because our work actually to get very close to them and we actually engage them our undercoat the teams get very close to death and become friends they of course we film them under cover because for us evidence is everything we win when we want to help law enforcement they need evidence so we feel you know meetings we negotiate with them from kind of products and you see the commercials of old is why it's like it's incredible the same person in Bangkok or 'd in Hanoi the same person the same trafficker a trader doing the same meeting can offer you Rhino ivory pangolin fish. Live orangutans and illegal timber you're in the same meeting and that's why it's so important to go after these people because that is it as you can imagine they're difficult to replace They have a lot of knowledge when you catch a damn You can actually get more information from them and you know when you take down one of these guys like taking down a 1000000 poachers you know it's their ripple effect back to the field Africa or Asia or whatever is huge I give you an example a little bit more than a year ago in Bangkok that tyo Torah days arrested 2 of the most important wildlife traffickers in the war Ron was indicted on the I was in Laos and we did most of the work leading to the arrest meaning that we did we conducted intelligence operations and most occasion for almost a new year in Thailand a neighboring country and then when we got enough information both where we wanted by the way then we join up with Ty Law Enforcement and they made their arrest and it's a classic beautiful example of how they enjoy like can work with a good way in a perfect way actually with law enforcement just helping charter these guys that got arrested they are behind smuggling of tons of I've already you're in the past year tons of rhino horns lived orangutan from from Southeast Asia from Borneo so you can imagine they poured tons. To take down these kind of people of course you need time because intelligence requires time you have to work you know you have to the way we work you know we have assets on the ground we build a network of informants and sources and we collect information it's a lot sometimes that it looks it sounds lame or it but sometimes it's very boring because it's a lot of data you know we have to collect our crime analyst our you know incredible young people are you know working with different kind of software is that they help the people in the field the teams in the field to understand what we're getting and then finally you know piece by piece you see the puzzle in front of your eyes and you see what you know what you're getting from the field in that case we got very close to these people and then they got arrested so this is a classic example of intelligence work investigative work in the field in collaboration with law enforcement at disrupting the supply chain by hitting the right spots you know the right people. Of course I understand he is the regular person I know the media understands better when approach your get killed in South Africa for example because you eat and you can even visualize it that are right you know there is a rhino was alive at National Park and approaches got into the park kill the rhino and then the Rangers killed the poacher and it's easy to understand the problem is that then everyone is fixated with that situation and you think that you can reverse could you can fight back simply by doing an deployed she misses a gigantic mistake to think that when you do want to be poaching you actually addressing the problem you are not addressing anything you're just buying time for those animals and it's that's why it's important to torching But you know nobody should have the notion that we don't deport to you actually doing something to make Ah ah. I'd like to talk about anti-poaching and the militarization of conservation but 1st I I just want to finish up this thought around the supply chains and I'm thinking about the geography of trafficking and the function of transit countries you know their choke points and exit points and how they are just absolutely vital to maintaining the mass scale at which wildlife kind operates at so how do you how different geo political realities affect your operations in transit countries are certain government bodies say more hesitant in stopping criminals are less likely to cooperate with organizations like Alison actually absolutely does it this is a very important point that you mention it affects a lot not only our work but in general I can tell you for example like to give you a very easy example in Southeast Asia where we mentioned before that you know some of the most important wildlife drop because in the war there you have a country like Thailand where not only it's easy to stop you know a connection it work in collaboration 'd with Dardis but they also kind of proxy on that date for example they became really the best custom I think is the best in Southeast Asia in terms of profiling people are coming from Africa for example. So they are able to understand before they land in Bangkok if this guy. You know potentially can carry something illegal. And they do operation they put people in Jaipur the opposite you'll find it in Vietnam or even worse in Laos where you know they really are now a safe haven for wildlife traffickers because the government not only local government not only do not do much but is actually protecting some of them so because of course it's a lot of money and some of the top officials are involved as well so. It's a big problem I can tell you the saving Africa there are countries like Kenya for example where you are where you find you know enforcement a little more active than other countries and it's easy to we know twist to collaborate or at least to exchange information to give them information and opposite is I don't know Republic of Congo for example where it's absolutely you know as you can imagine sort of no man's land 0 rule of law and you can do whatever you want to just pay and you can put on a plane whatever you want it's a big problem as an organization of course we try to operate where we can make a difference so it means log on to things it means where there is a receptive lower force 'd meant government agency that is willing and happy to receive information from us doesn't mean necessarily that we have to work together but it you 'd you law enforcement have to acknowledge that we can provide use of information for you and then you can use this information as you please and if you arrest people you can actually even get to take the credit for we don't care as long as you do it of course another country where we are working is Mexico for example for that to do about it a crisis and we are we are in constant. Contact with with the Mexican government a bunch of ministries we share information with them so we put a lot of effort in understanding not only did it the right government agencies in each country but also the right person because we want to deliver our intelligence reports to that the reports are that we know is not corrupt is on as any need to really try and is really trying to do something so in so many countries it's impossible so I can give you I mean I can tell you for example that we are we have been sharing with the Chinese government for years now they data they acknowledge and they thank they don't tell you absolutely never they will never tell you what they're doing when you we're trying to information but at least they are willing to accept it and that's good it's a beginning you know as I always say China is a is a big part of the problem right now in terms of environmental crime at the same time we need China to to solve it you know without China without having China on board without work learning to work with China we will lose everything we can go home ever one day. That's why we put a lot of you know we try our best to work with them to share information that they can use. That's really fascinating to learn about the relationship of China because I know that China is the buyer and the seller of so many of the wildlife organs and and parts of these creatures so I think it's a lesson and how to work with quote the enemy so to speak or work with the humor of the person on the opposite side of the spectrum but that we can't deny that we're going to have to work with people that we absolutely disagree with or people that we think are the worst of the worst in any whether it's within logging and pipelines and you know whatever were we're fighting against So I really love to hear more about that later but I do want to talk about this anti-poaching and militarization and so I'd love to transition into a conversation around the military as ation of conservation with you but before doing so. That you advocate intelligence work as a means to prevent the rising militarization of conservation which I'm sure you're more than familiar with the militarization of conservation is also described as eco militarization or the greening of the military and with the rise of eco militarization We have also seen the coalescence of conservation groups and private defense corporations where I imagine these corporations are making significant money by providing emerging technology so my 1st question is how are big conservation organizations complicit in funding militarize conservation operations and my 2nd question is what future problems does this method pose if we continue to normalize violence and military intervention as a rational application of conservation and species protection. Very good questions and they are they address very very bored to. Issue for me which is exactly it is the military section of conservation which is a consequence of what we were talking about before so everyone is fixated on and to poach in everyone wants to see only poaching and they they think they the only way to fight back is basically on to poaching what Antti poaching means it means boots on the ground special forces weapons and roads and I don't know one time one day I would I'm expect expect to see missiles and because they they thought they did and they still think that poaching is the beginning of the problem in fact is the very end of the problem is almost a consequence of the problem the problem is trafficking and demand that comes before poaching but because of this I would say taken off policies by especially the big g O's but also the owners suffers most in a depôt Ching what that basically led to the rise of a whole industry around people watching maybe you know you find former Special Forces training looking for says I I know them very well I I met some of them I've been you I'm very familiar with the whole thing I witnessed myself some of those trainings in different countries and you can see that the scope of war is simply to kill the poachers and it's at the same time very sad to see because you know I remind you that. A lot of the poets just are poor people and they are off for. 345 years of solitary to kill one elephant and maybe day had a family of 5 and at home waiting for them so it's very you know as I always say in Africa in those conditions it's actually very difficult to remain honest it takes an awful lot of courage because the temptation is simply too big as always say if I start offering here in Los Angeles 510 times the salary of a person to do something I would have long lines of people willing to do pretty much everything here in Los Angeles can imagine in the middle of Africa people that you know doesn't have anything so you see now you have all these different groups doing different things working with. Former Special Forces. Working with drones training local groups local ranger in all sort of guerrilla warfare or ambush and. In some cases you know you have a few places in Africa for example ground a national park in Congo where yes you have a very very unique situation in terms of poaching poachers are actually militias and sometimes basically terrorist so you do need to discount a preparation if you want to protect the national park but in many other cases in my opinion everyone is just putting a lot of money into fighting back with weapons while in reality what you really need is to fight back with information intelligence decrees the militarization of information magine to fight a war I don't Nobody likes war so I don't want to I don't want to you know make an example that people will not like but imagine to fight. A war against terrorism in Afghanistan without intelligence simply by being left and right and killing single I don't know Taliban and that's it and then a little bit of propaganda awareness that said Without intelligence without knowing who does what and who is very real for real important and always not important at all right now we are fighting environment a crime like this guy and we're just killing people and and try to convince consumers not to buy just products we know now what is the situation so I it's mind blowing you know it's I really don't understand why the people and they intentionally community doesn't understand that without intelligence we win moves not only the speeches very soon but we also lose all the millions of dollars that we put to protected speech so far. Yeah it's really insane it's just it doesn't make sense and I know I've seen the propaganda that you're talking about where people are saying oh look it's the local people they're armed the local people are the ones protecting the wildlife against the poachers and there is this kind of villain and hero story narrative that people get attached to and you know and it's a very it's a very deep narrative for us as humans the enemy and the victorious justice seeking person and as much as I I can understand this narrative I also see this other narrative coming up right now to actually just read an article and it was titled millions of forest Welling people are about to be a victim did in the name of conservation and that the headline the Supreme Court of India has directed 16 states to affect all scheduled tribe members and other traditional forest wallers before July 27th whose claims are rejected under the Forest Rights Act in 2006 and it's interesting because you know there is there is this issue that poachers are coming into these lands and killing wildlife but then there's also an issue of indigenous peoples and conservation is thinking that they're in the way of the wildlife so I'm seeing these 2 pieces and I I know that you know I'm not sure if you are aware of the removal of indigenous peoples from land say in Africa or Latin America is tied in with the poachers or do you feel like this is just a whole other narrative altogether in the name of protecting the wildlife I think it's a it's a different narrative partially. Environmental crime but you also have to for example in Africa you also have to think that there is no there is but there of course you get you if you have no absolute. no 'd zoning or planning when you been planning when you build stuff Ok so a lot of important national parks are not only completely surrounded by villages by people but also of course these people need to do this to survive and they need they need the wood for the fire and evidence so they they need to graze find places for the cows to graze a saw there is a pretty significant you know and tropic pressure on those wide places and the white places are getting smaller and smaller My prediction is that you know in maybe in a few decades from now in Africa you will see why dynamos just in within very large enclosures and that state and no nation are parks here and there and that's. Because at the same time there is also no control on the growth of population so there's no family planning as well so you have every year you have millions of new people who need a job wanted to eat you need to do you know to leave and less and less space for for the wild creatures you know for wilderness then it's up to us you know to decide collectively Ok how much how many wild animals we want we cannot have as many as we want because simply there is no space anymore but my point is that whatever you decide then you really have to protect it and you don't protect those wide spaces just by entering you know on the poor people around the park and jailing poachers and deploying the military that I don't think is the right way to protect those places you have to have a more strategic approach again based on intelligence based on to know who does what to base what you know what's going on in that place and what of course it goes without saying work with local population as much as possible you know the locals Are your sure. This line of defense you know are the guardians so you you have to find a way to at the moment you just need a couple of very organized criminal groups to create havoc you know to destroy everything under the noses of law enforcement and under the nose of the local population so. It's a very very difficult situation I have to admit there's simply not not enough space for wide animals and at the same time many of those wild animals are now a product of very very profitable product so how do you protect How do you protect them against an example from Mexico to to to have a crisis in the bucket a crisis fisherman over there they're very poor and they usually make around 50606 $100.00 per month fishing shrimps and other fish with only $1.00 to $2.00 of a fish they make $5000.00 so how do you stop that there is up I went there I spend there near enough there's absolutely nothing else to do terms of work the government is far away. They all have families and the whole thing is actually now managed by organized crime so how do you protect the place like that I think it's self evident that you will not be able to protect it with weapons you have to deploy the whole army to protect a place like that and state government will not be effective you have to be more strategic and more intelligence to approach those kind of problems unfortunately I don't see this strategy being used almost anywhere in the world action. I hear your analysis and I was thinking back to the ivory game film the ear and with Richard like a. As director and it was really. Just I remember this scene of the ledgers and Africa then they are so frustrated with the elephants because the elephants were coming into their farms and destroying their crop and they needed to feed their children and so there was a cause there is this kind of battle around like well is the government or conservation groups going to pay for fences so that the elephants can't get into their home and their farms and they're saying we will kill these elephants if they continue to ruin our crops because we need to feed our children and so I I really hear this complex issue of well the wildlife needs space to survive and then the local people many of who most of whom are impoverished and they need space to live create homes jobs you know have water and water is you know we know the water crisis all over the globe and there's the water is dwindling more and more and more of course the water is and dwindling for corporate resource extraction projects because those the corporations get as much water as they need but then what's left over is normal for the rest of the people in the and the wildlife so I I do see the complexity of this and I feel such heartache going into the future knowing that all of us humans more than humans we are going to be struggling to see who gets to survive 'd. You know who gets to have the resources in order to continue living and it's really it's really challenging and so of course I go back to this question of Ultimately we need to go for the root of the problem and the root of the problem I'm wondering you know is that demand and then let's just say we're only talking right now about the poaching I'm wondering is the root of the problem the demand so how is demand destroyed and who oversees this. And you know we talked about how to do this without criminalizing the poor and with cultural sensitivity in mind given that historically global environmental interventions have been part of a problematic Western imposition imperialism and assimilation So if we need to go to destroy the demand. Yeah I kind of just want you to be able to speak to it has this take a lot of confusion that I've just laid on you. Yet because you know mainstream media presenting this problem in my opinion is in an oversimplistic way putting a lot of you know a lot on their on the shoulders of chairs and I'm talking mostly just about the poaching grounds is actually more complex and when you start out of lies in the complexity of this problem then you get into these mental metrics because then you understand oh wow it's not only complex but we are actually we have been focusing on the rock and a very small portion of this problem for decades and elephants actually is a good example you know elephants just in 200 years it's incredible what happened to elephants you know 200 years ago they were we had around $27000000.00 elephants in Africa 200 years ago a 100 years ago there were already only $5000000.00 and now it's 350000 elephants probably in the whole Africa it's a sort of a whole coast almost in 200 years they've been like out from the continent and still we still have this problem if you ask many countries in Africa they will tell you there are still too many. Because right there are too many well because people there's a lot of people now and compared to 200 years ago and is simply not space enough but just going back to the China problem I have one example very recent from our work that explained how poaching is actually connected to the demand and to China so we have been working as you said on this problem in bucket for an illegal fishing up to 2 hours and the extension basically opted to keep these little little dogs and little purpose so we have been sharing information with the Chinese authorities for over a new year on the Chinese traffickers so illegal traders that would traffic also to throb a swim bladder Ok just to give you an example. For this swim bladder we just sat in the Gulf of California fishermen get something like $5000.00 special it is a female from once we blather the same swim bladder on the black market in China is easily get goes 230-035-0500 extension 00 we saw we've seen blathers at $100000.00 Ok So imagine the profit that's why again it's crude organization behind what happened be recently is that the Chinese authorities arrested about a month and a half ago there was the very 1st big bust in China on total albatross because they arrested dozens of people and millions of dollars of the lot of those who have a seized at the same time the Mexican authorities are finally putting some pressure on the Chinese traders in Mexico and we are we are also doing the same you know openly with our work with film c. Of shadows so there's a there's a new pressure on the Chinese side of this problem so very interesting interesting week ago we have sources on the ground in Mexico and Valley California and these sources are telling us listen we have seen something strange in the price of $2.00 to collapse from $5000.00 to $2500.00 and some illegal fishermen and traders and basically criminals are complaining that because of the pressure on the Chinese traders in Mexico any china this whole thing became all of a sodding. Too complicated too dangerous and and not profitable as it used to be because Chinese traders do not have enough money to invest in new nets so in new illegal fishing activities that is extremely interesting this is a great example of what intelligence and investigative work can do on the supply chain so all of a sudden you are choking that the mound along the entire supply chain because becomes not profitable enough and why because the key players along the supply chain are finally getting some pressure and that's it I think is a great example of what we should be seeing in many other iss and many other supply chains good intelligence work and investigative work leading to fictive law enforcement action that causes you know a sense of some sort of a ripple effect along the supply chain all the way to the bullshit grounds as a great example of we should be all working towards this from our own and without overdoing you know your own cultures it's interesting to hear how the demand it's not so much the people who are trying to buy the total on the blotter for medicine it's like the demand comes from this and this really greedy desire to make as much money as the cartels can so it's like an inflated amount it's not it's not really the demand of the medicine it's this inflation due to these criminalize organizations or something anything that's how I'm understanding it. Well at sight of the problem is also of course the consumers in this case in China and they have to be educated that it is wrong to buy took a lot for example or it is wrong to buy right or left but let's not forget they have been doing this for centuries and only in the berry young Chinese generation we are beginning to see a change that are different from their fathers and mothers but it will take time it will take at least a full generational change before seeing some significant effect in the consumer mind in China and the need and you have to find a way to tackle this problem in different ways and the only way we found is Ok it's crime let's let's fight it as a crime not as an environmental issue only it's actually crime because these traders along the supply chain have all the interest in fueling the demand and in poor thing in this case to to about or even Rhino continue to bring never stop so the consumer if you want to buy Rhino or if you want to they want to buy they have to be able to do it or let's not forget those consumer can buy many other things including legal things case is not that they die if they don't bite or 2 are if the one day they will not find a job anymore or do it becomes so difficult so dangerous and police will put you in jail Believe me they will stop doing it because that is one thing only that Chinese consumer fear and his law enforcement nothing else that freight of their government and dive straight of law enforcement so every time law enforcement maybe wants to change something they can do it overnight basically in that country so right now they don't do it it is not a priority but you have to you don't have to think of the consumers of the very final consumer as their only engine behind the whole thing is very wrong it's equally wrong as to seeing their poachers as the engine behind the whole thing it's and I know it's make sense to think as you sad. Before the desire to not if they're easy to understand right to be learned for sure the bad guy in the field. And Chinese you know reach guy who buys either yes they are part of the same equation but what I'm saying is that they are not the most important variable up these equations. They make so much sense I'm so just blown away by the work that you and your team do it's so important it's very courageous and it isn't talked about enough and I'm really grateful to you in this conversation how you've been able to. Kind of smash through these simplistic narratives that we're told and to really start to help us understand how these systems maintain themselves and what we could do to actually disrupt the flow of. Cartels and and how that ties into the bigger systems of government economics relationships with local people poverty I mean it's just so dense and I'm really happy that there are people like you who are out there giving their lives and I hear the sacrifice that you and others have had to give in order to protect these creatures these kin of ours and I want to say that I know well in this modern culture we're kind of taught that we are the most important people humans or ourselves you know we've got to make sure we're happy we got to you know why sacrifice but anything that is really worth it takes sacrifice any anything that we want to see changed and this in this very twisted world it will take sacrifice from each of us to bring these solutions to fruition and so I am so grateful that you were willing to do that with your life and you know like I said I have probably a 100 more questions rattling in my head but for now. I am going to really sit with this information I'd like to he does or I have to tell you it was a very great I mean it was a great interview you had a really good question that I you rarely hear if not ever and because the the problem is that a lot of media approach does this probably not a very simplistic way and it's not good when you well there simplify something that is really complicated there are risks to is to put your attention on the wrong part of the problem oh my gosh absolutely the rest I mean that the tension in the money I mean the attention and the funding to go into the wrong place that's never going to actually resolve the issue and then and then what's so dangerous is that we think we're doing something whether for donating we think we're doing it but that's what's dangerous about that let's let's do You said something so important that myself I repeated so many times during my speeches and got phrases when there's nothing more dangerous he generally like for a person when you think you're doing something and in reality you're not doing anything that's super dangerous then when the bad guys really laugh at you. Yeah well and I definitely see that being the same thing with a lot of social media you know we keep thinking that we're doing things but it's really just this ball of distraction that's a that could be a whole our conversation and that itself just the strategies of the strategies in the midst of myths and misinformation of how we are going about our tactics it's really interesting. That. Thanks so much for listening to further wild pod cast I'm Ira younger than you. Secu heard today.

Been watching this one all morning walk into jackknifed rigs 710 north of the connector ramps to the east and westbound 60 they are still entirely shut down the back of out of wood what if you have not way north on the 710 and this wreck from 330 this morning to San Fernando Valley South high 5 is right by the Rockford off have a little below the foothill freeway to. The right lanes are still taken away don't think about using the right shoulder that's taken away as well just the left lanes are passable the 5 southbound back of Magic Mountain Parkway and that's also causing a tremendous backup on the 14th southbound coming out can the country and out into the past next report at 920. 7 I.

Good morning Steve and when I was a pause for dramatic effect you know he Steve thank you so much good morning Randi and good morning Randi one of the ones that. It's not 07 John is on vacation he's on a cruise with Darth you know I have stopping by what have you done that I have a has a hedge on that I'd only radio Steve Benen sounds a little winded it's because he was doing pushups again oh yeah and I think he had a cocktail. For the ones he rolls right to things that have a cocktail and did he have work done during the break on home like all that do the important story as a French fry shortage so at some point please this morning let us do that story well then the potatoes I like French fries with my wife the cold weather is having a huge impact We'll get to that a little bit later on if you're driving right now and if you're driving on the forum at 9 o 7 in the morning it's still the right place to be and it's raining so it's even worse than that and I just picked out the window it is pouring here pull her city Oh it's about is the fact that they did that multi multi $1000000.00 redo of the $45.00 to widen it nobody ever noticed any difference now as they are now I think you and I just well we did that one every day when you lived in the valley and they say that it is the busiest interchange in the entire United lot of what he. It's also the most annoying now did you see the pictures Thanksgiving yet they say that yanks every year that's the same one they've used for 3 years and we really don't have lights to show l.a. Officials are moving forward with plans to convert the carpool lane into a toll lane him in a cash grab along the 45 freeway through the supposed to pass I have been part of this appalled at a pass when it is at max capacity many many many times like the rest of us and you know what that carpool lane moves just as slow as the rest of the lanes and this is nothing but a cash grab for roads that we have already paid for 3 times over Randi kill your Mike Mitchell reportedly allow access to the car pool lane similar to the the $110.00 in the 10 Freeway which charges drivers of per mile toll that changes based on traffic conditions now this is a good idea the national Motors Association has spoken out against the toll road saying they are an inefficient backwards approach to providing public I was worse they foster corruption political update I want if it helps a little bit and as Randy would say it's a cash grab Well let's say it helps a little bit for the people that can afford that extra fee Well now you are making everyone that can afford it very lives even worse because if you speed up a little bit of traffic in that one lane the rest of the lanes are going to be slower it's a regressive tax rate really let's develop the story before we have the final conclusion and have you ever made the mistake auction it and got no one of those toll roads and you don't know and you get to because me 50 bucks well how she was it pardon me Sheila Dunn is joining us spokesperson for the National Motorists Association the after mentioned Association that says is a terrible idea Sheila 1st of all good morning welcome Yes thank you so much for inviting me a priest you know all right now traffic in l.a. Is just god awful but the truth is of you were if you live in a big city everybody has the same thing here is particularly awful. Some people say if you charge for your people will use the lanes or whatever to help your take on this is what. Well I have a couple of takes on it and reading reports you know about what they're the proposing actually you know it's not really even about money what they're really trying to do is get people out of their cars there's a whole layer of bureaucracy right now in city government says county governments state governments specially in California that are really trying to get people out of their cars and they want to build to dealing either both ways which is going to cost billions of dollars and you know like some some of the guys said earlier you know it's not really going to reduce the traffic at all if and the people that can afford it will go into those lanes the people who can't will still be stuck in the other lanes and it is called the freeway now you know what's ironic about all this is that Californians pay the highest gas tax in the country and you know when you have those funds diverted this is what happens you know everything's on the backs of motorists continuously over and over and over again this is continuously happening in California and I don't understand why California's don't just get up in arms and say we don't want to take this anymore because it's just our age of course Brazil let's say they want people to get out of their cars and I understand that if you live in Santa Monica you travel a couple miles they want you to go use public transportation right you can't really get. From the city to the valley now by public transit now. So what are the options. Well the options are you work where you live or you drive and that's that's those are the only options really you know we're talking about the tunnel a tunnel underneath or a monorail over but all of that is in trying to as a zip line for Dorothy. Not Listen we all know what the problems are and a lot of us hate the idea of 4 or 5 turning into a cash grab as Randy says but is there any solution what else is there yeah that you know Ok let me ask you this question will the congestion be corrected if they threaten the income of the toll roads I mean I think that's a very good question and I don't think they will I don't think congestion problems will be fixed I think it's just you know cash grab is trying to get people out of the car is an equity issue you know there's all kinds of things going on here that you know maybe maybe it's not the greatest solution maybe you know. There's other solutions but is this the crux Aleutian I you know it's hard to say what I'm going to ask people who are in their cars right now or will be in their cars to give us a call on this one how do you feel about the 1802 to 2 k b c 180-222-5222 do you like the idea of the toll road there those of you who have been using the toll road for so long elsewhere in the Los Angeles area what is it like for you does it work for you does it help or not you've got to remember this isn't like a toll road like the 73 freeway in Orange County where it's on private freeway and it gets you know read all the horrible traffic mazing this is taking away existing lanes that we are already paying for and a public highway and making you pay double for and we already have that and there are people listening who are already using out on the 110 of the 10 want to know what you think about 818-022-2522 extension 2 Sheila traffic we have to live with Kraftwerk we have too many people you know we people in cars we are not designed here it's not like you live in New York City this is you know the subway yeah you can't get people out of their cars yet and you know we're all saying what is the solution I don't know if there's a solution but can we help incrementally I mean at least small things to help. Well you know Course carpooling is always helpful but you know even in this that is not really going on in l.a. But it's not caught on and the other problem is you know if they if they increase the how many people you have to have in your car that's not really going to help that's the issue either you know right now I think it's 2 or 3 but if they implement 4 to 6 when you even has a 6 member family you know if they do that they can do it well or do for people who do 3 year in some of the situations here as well as opposed to however I go back in history 1904 we had the Olympics here and now you think in 1904 we didn't have traffic problems the complaints were exactly the same in 1904 they staggered Business Times and businesses all cooperated for a couple of weeks starting with ours a little later a little earlier and it was the greatest time for traffic in the history of the city so maybe we need a little cooperation Yeah so maybe that needs to happen that's 11 thing is having staggered Business Times that's certainly a big thing to happen you know I know that there's a lot of conversation out there about you know better less I mean less expensive housing where people work so that's that's something to think about you know having the housing closer to where people work but that's not for everybody some people just want to live out in the valley and that's just the way it is you know. All right Sheila Ok you know why this isn't depressing conversation. You know we live it every day but you know this is the thing the gas tax is supposed to be taking care of all of this and when you have a governor like Governor new someone who's decided to use the one money for transit you know I don't know why more motor start are outraged by the release rate I remember when we instituted the lottery here which was going to help all as well for schools remember that believe nothing thank you Sheila appreciate if you're all the spokesperson for the National Motorists Association motorists dot org. It will take some calls here 1802 to 2 k b c 180222522 they'll never get us out of our cars in that this is just a car town I have the simplest solution and no one ever takes it seriously doesn't work for every industry doesn't work for every job but if you incentivize you know governing with a care instead of a sick incentivized telecommuting for jobs that could work with it even if it's one day a week and you could take 20 percent of the cars off the road today Ok look at radio right now with a lot of us have to be here we can all be in the valley and those are not even i.s.d.n. They're called there's the Kodak and I used it when I was on The Howard Stern show and people thought I was in I was on the wrap up show they thought I was in New York and I was doing it from my home you would save the overhead of a radio station and I want to see your face in the cabin and being didn't work together for it was back then when the nobody misses the let's go to Neville in my own history here on k.v. She never good morning. Good morning I was doing kind of a what's up. I just wanted to say that I think that Pizzolatto I. Think going to work on the 5 because it's not going to lessen the amount of cars on the road and if you go to say like d.c. Or New York the public transportation system you let them sit both much better and I think that that is the issue it is about the traffic there's no alternative Yeah I agree it's hard to nail a Though apparently as we've noticed but if they did something above the freeway like another never mind you know I don't but I'm on a real I'm on a real no no no no that's public transport no I mean another freeway above the freeway still wants a double decker Thank you Jack or I can't wait for this they'll say they'll cost $52000000000.00 It'll cost $7.00 trillion dollars They say take 30 years to build into 100 years to build used basically saying My idea is to pay the bill to do freeway since the $105.00 yes I am almost. I do not like the language and. It goes back to something that I hope when l. At least Nevels what you want l.h. Was being formed the idea of public transportation lost to the idea of cars in the oil companies and people developing real estate way out in the distance we got rid of our red car there is that crazy here what car just read some just watch Roger Rabbit sat there was is how you learn about the entire history of transportation to LAs and I know it's wrong watching Who Framed Roger Rabbit in the red cars up until the sixty's I guess you could take the red car from downtown to see to the beach in Santa Monica people traveled in the red car they were trying the cars basically trying all day Ok all right Neville thank you so much thank you no home now this sounds like you know British name doesn't it don't have a certain level let's go to a certain John imply that already right now John you're not happy about this 5 idea why. No You know this whole thing is a total disaster and I've found it keep moving I think I've talked you guys a couple times that we've been keeping an eye on this and you know it's I want something that Sheila said is that you know they're claiming that making this a tollway it's going to alleviate traffic but that's a complete nonsense lie because if you think about what's going to happen as Randy said the people who can't afford the toll are going go to the free lanes and that's going to make congestion that much worse for moving people and they're not only talking one lane they're talking taking 2 lanes to do this so we're actually losing a lane on the 405 and we're going to dedicate the lane to the what they call Lexus lanes the people who can pay for his blessing I want to make you know it's a they say won't but if you're in a jovial get to use it for free you just put that little transponder on to like on the 110 and you get to use it for free but that's not the true one thing that they're not telling you it's in the fine print if you read it if you're going have to have 6 passengers in your car to use that lane for free so it's the idea that you know if you've got you know you're carpooling will still get you that lane it's actually not true so it's going to make traffic immensely worse. That is the worst freeway in the country right now they're saying now 6 people you know it will be 23 where you can find 6 people you might have in your primary exactly you want to drive a bus you know when I happen university I beg Steve to come with me as a guest lecturer because I want to ride in front of yeah yeah that's where you know and at another point you know they said that you know s.b. One gas tax we are fighting that last year to try and repeal s b $10.00 s b one generates about $5400000000.00 per year in new taxes while on September 19th Gavin Newsome signed an executive order transferring $5000000000.00 out of the transportation budget into California's global warming climate action plan budget so they've literally stolen 100 percent or almost 99 percent of the gas tax transportation money that we all voted for last year to keep that tax if we were told it's going to improve our roads all that money was moved over out of the transportation budget so it again is another complete lie from the state a complete lie from Newsome are you saying that Marlise interest and my oh my god what we have is doing. So glib that we actually think that you know. When they're telling the truth they're actually all that's the lie that's all you know these are listen this time will actually pave the road it's also a perfect storm for conservatives because here you have a tax that you don't want to begin with and then they take it not use it for what they promised before and then they use it for global warming which you know it used to be exactly you know it was really what's really egregious Neverland they were telling us in a lockbox that money is a lot but I think technically the s.b. 15000000000 is in a lockbox they took another 5000000000 that wasn't in the quote unquote lockbox and moved it out those are really a bait and switch John thank you Wolf again I don't appreciate it John more calls coming in on this Tracey hang on with all of you if this really hits us where we live because you know the shared experience while we're on our cars is being in the car and what is like 920 to him 70 k.p.h.

The way that we operate in Southern California it's already had an example a 2nd ago about $73.00 The difference is that an ancillary that's an overflow freeway was built completely separate You're not taking away lanes from an already from an existing problem so it makes sense so what are we going to do I mean I like to ride scooters but not the rain what I'm going to do.

In We're talking about Charles Lane on the 45 and let's go to Tracy in Diamond Bar right now good morning sir Tracey good. Good morning guys great here in the Out here I can't believe that no one is called to tell you what's going on the 91 freeway and this is what it's coming to all the residents of Los Angeles if you travel on 4 or 5 if they turn that into a toll road so if you travel on the 91 freeway between Anaheim and the 15th through in close to me the toll is always and I haven't seen it cheaper than $12.00 and then when she waits but during during peak hours in the morning which you know out in that area brought the 50 in the $91.00 starts at 4 30 in the morning it's 20 it can be as high as $26.00. Jillian I am telling you I can't leave by I'm the only person that's called in to tell you yeah I just I honestly to be taught to be honest the Tracy I was thinking $5.00 would be a really charged with books because Randy never talked about that before if you know I know. And you get that I haven't seen it I used to live in Canyon Lake and I have a management company move her between and I said trouble doing canyon lake and the bubble Bay Club had their. And I would I would take the whole road then and it was always see no between 5 and 12 dollars I haven't seen it below 12 dollars and I'm telling you at 11 o'clock at night on a Friday or Saturday night it's still 20 or $22.00 and sometimes during. Levon o'clock at night and that's And let me remind you that they have spent the last 10 years redoing the freeway and it's killing in each direction and if that wasn't a trial and it's basically. The 91 toll tolling they operate it like a cartel It is absolutely insane and that's what they're going to do to the 4 or 5 freeway it's it I don't know what the difference is between I think it's I want to say it's 15 miles I think between the $55.00 and the 152626 dollars each way I mean can you imagine just the time and money you spend just to travel but on top of that $52.00 a day and of the $91.00 to the ways the concrete work every day. There are a great friend Tracy you have to sell a lot of yachts. And see how much worse 91 non toll lanes got in the sense they implemented this program because it's been a few years now. It's a complete parking lot and I can't believe I'm the only person that has called in to tell you that every day and then on you know especially Thursday because Thursday has become a new Friday there are state was so I think to for sure I don't know what's happened so you just wish sometimes treys you could take one of those yachts to work just so you know yes you know I importunately I don't do that drive anymore but you know when I used to do it and every once well even when I drive a Dime bar up to canyon lake or whatever I just can't believe that I used to make that trip every day Tracy the 3 of us are thinking about buying a used ya got a good deal for so. Yes I do I have to be graded by how we're going to get a yacht named after him play young. Yaz friends soon as he wants to know are very good ones to know that most expenses the most expensive part of owning the boat is maintaining it Diane tell you what what I used to charge to take care of the $63.00 foot Hatteras with $6500.00 a month.

Both payment has both payment for the boat with $32500.00 so the boat just sitting there was $43000.00 a month not not.

News. You're listening to the news room from the b.b.c. World Service with me Tom MacLeod Welcome to the program we begin with the NATO summit which is now underway in London the alliance marks its 70th anniversary this year but any sense of jubilation has been overshadowed by disagreements over defense spending in fighting over Turkey's actions in Syria and Iran speaking this morning President Trump said Europe needs NATO more than the United States he also described comments by the French president Emmanuel McCall that NATO was braindead as a very nasty adding that Mr Mack wrong could even take France out of the alliance I do see fresh spring look at him and say he's potentially more than anybody and I see him breaking off so I will suffice it that the Turkish president to resurrect the one has said that he will oppose NATO his plan for the defense of the Baltic States if it doesn't back Turkey over its fight against Kurdish groups that it considers terrorists the NATO secretary general is Yemen Stoltenberg in the fight against ISIS to Turkey has been a key role then many of us have expressed their concern about the Turkish need their permission from Syria but formally do remain with the United States Turkey when it was 1st and talk of we have seen the closest fall it's misinterpretations of the North East to your own as you know significant action in the violence in our human conduct in part to find a political solution to the crisis in Syria lots to talk about with our diplomatic and defense correspondent Jonathan Marcus who joins us here in the newsroom and it's only been a few hours since this meeting really got underway but already cracks showing how serious are these ones within NATO at the moment which was not these are only the preliminaries the but the meeting proper doesn't really happen till tomorrow the formal events begin with a reception at Buckingham Palace early the saving I think it really shows you know the NATO has been downplaying the significance of this. They refused to call it a summit they're calling it a leaders gathering one NATO official I spoke to yesterday said we just want to get through this you know there's a realisation that all of these differences abound to bubble to the surface I don't think it fundamentally suggests that the alliance is about to collapse or go away or the things it does well the things that it provides in terms of security and so on remain very important but at the political level now with a much and large membership and mercurial president like Donald Trump in office in the White House there are bound to be all these sorts of problems speaking of President Trump him saying quote I see France breaking off from later what do you think well I don't think France is going to break off for France of course has traditionally emphasize a very strong European dimension in defense as well and that is sometimes problematic of course Mr Macro when he made this comment that the alliance was strategically brain dead he was referring to the fact that in his view it doesn't really grapple with the biggest used to teach Glee all the talk is driven by Mr Trump and it's about money and burden sharing and he who pays water and so on the French and indeed many others have been very alarmed by the unilateral action taken by the United States in abandoning the Kurds in northeastern Syria in Turkey's move into northeastern in Syria you know all of these unilateral measures that have huge strategic implications for the alliance as a whole that we never discussed with the other members so to that extent Mr Macro has a point but of course Mr Macro was this morning very much in Donald Trump sights he really launched pretty much or a full scale offensive against the French president Jonathan Marcus thank you plenty more from the NATO meeting in London today and tomorrow here on the newsroom of course now the European Union is going to hit back with a strong repast those are the words of the French finance minister after the United States threatened to slap. Taxes on a range of French goods including rocket for cheese champagne and lipstick the new tariffs worth almost 2 and a half 1000000000 dollars Following months of complaints in Washington about a digital services tax introduced by the government of the French President Emanuel micro which targets companies such as Google Apple Amazon and Facebook on the sidelines of the NATO summit this morning President Trump had this to say Merican Japanese I want to tax the scholars and I'm going to tax pleasure and sell French is going to put a tax on it was totally over the moon you just had the idea imagine well the stacks those companies well they're American companies and I believe people take advantage of American companies because a value is going to take advantage of the American companies it's going to be us it's not going to be France with me in the studio is our economics correspondent Andrew Walker Andrew just for people who want to where exactly about this digital services tax what is it actually proposing Well it's more than a proposal it's actually been in force now for some time it basically it's an attempt to getting for the French government a some tax on the advertising and digital platform activities done by big international technology businesses the argument being that essentially the way in which they structure their business is the fact that they often provide services without to countries where there is no physical presence mean they can avoid paying their fair share of tax and this is very much aimed at service has provided to people and businesses in France even though the provider of those services may not have a presence there so tell us a bit more about Donald Trump's complaints the United States argues that the tax unfairly targets American companies it also argues that that it hit targets the wrong thing the wrong kind. Financial flows so it's based on revenue rather than on profits and the Americans say it actually should not be done like that and of course the reason the French are keen to target revenue rather than profits is because with multinational companies in general and this is especially not only true of technology companies of certain types of digital service provider at least it's possible to structure your business in such a way that the profit is actually being built up in a jurisdiction somewhere completely different from where the real economic activity in effect taking place in the French want to get their hands on a certain amount of the revenue from that the focus here on France but what would be the effect of an e.u. Wide response to Donald Trump as well in terms of trade it would have to be any you wide response France does not have an independent trade policy the e.u. Would undoubtedly be looking will start to look very seriously at the possibility of imposing additional tariffs on American goods were saying that it's not something that's happened yet what we've got so far from the Americans is a consultation list on what goods they might impose tariffs on but there's no question is does constitute a significant escalation of trade tensions across the Atlantic under Walker thank you now on to the un climate talks in Madrid where scientists say that they believe average temperatures since 2010 will make the last decade the warmest on record Provisional figures from the World Meteorological Organization have now been presented at the conference of the parties in the Spanish capital from there our environment correspondent Mark McGrath reports. Well scientists won't be particularly concerned about the danger from a particular year like 2019 even though it makes it the 2nd or 3rd warmest year on record what they will be more concerned about is the overall trend of these particular data are seeing is that since the 1980 s. Each decade since then has been warmer than the one before it in the decade from 2010 to now is the warmest on record the 5 years and 2015 to now are also the warmest on record and $2900.00 on the data so far is the 2nd or 3rd warmest year the warmest year overall has been 2016 that was affected by a strong El Nino weather event although loss of Concerned Scientists about this particular data are the fact that it's having impacts all around the world we're seeing ice melt in the Arctic in large numbers and over the last number of years we're seeing droughts in many parts of the world we're seeing the sea level rise at a rate that we haven't seen before so there are a lot of very concerning aspects to these particular temperatures the scientists will hope that they'll inform the debate here in the Dritte over the next week or 2 where delegates are trying to advance on the pledges that they've made under the Paris climate agreement one of the delegates told me that the something the the the the the slogan for this particular summit is time for action and they say on the basis of this report it definitely is MacGraw in Madrid there it was going to the b.b.c. World Service here is Jerry with the headlines rows between member states threaten to overshadow celebrations of the 70th anniversary of the NATO alliance President Trump has taken aim at recent comments by his French counterpart about NATO and also at a new digital turn exposed by Paris meteorologists say they're almost certain the current decade will have been the warmest ever and the late Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe you failed to name the beneficiaries of his estate worth more than $10000000.00 Thank you Jerry a powerful typhoon has hit the largest island in the Philippines with gusts of up to 240 kilometers per hour. Government meteorologist say typhoon commercially made landfall in the southernmost part of Luzon we can speak to our correspondent who's in Manila Howard Johnson the typhoon itself the impact being felt where you are hired and you've also been to some of the affected areas What impact has it had in general you know we were in Batangas city today and we saw that the storm had ripped off approved rooted trees flipped over cars we've heard local reports of 4 people have sadly died as a result of this storm it barreled in from the east of the country and made its way through the center of the Philippines taking in the several provinces and tonight it's moving past Manila I can see down from my vantage point here a tarpaulin outside a shopping mall being ripped to shreds this very wet and you can feel the gust blowing in the air this still activity out there somewhere in the Philippines is being hit hard right now by this storm how well prepared is the piller the Philippines for this because it's not unusual to have typhoons there. Yeah they have around 20 storms a year this is actually the 20th storm this year and they are well prepared in that they have a national disaster Council that puts out a lot of information to warn people of these storms last night my phone was ringing relentlessly telling me about different storm surges the wind coming in from different directions so lots of people up and down the country was screaming grabbing mass and posting them on Twitter and Instagram to show that they also had received these warnings so this country is well versed and lots of people also believe that they can read the weather here when I was covering storm and put in 2018 people said we watch the sea and given the look of the waves we can determine whether it's going to be a bad storm warnings tell us a little bit about the perspective of the Flight Explorer as well. Yes Southeast Asian Games going on at the moment here the country's had a bit of a rocky start because there were not very adequate preparations for some athletes particular in the football matches but then the opening games the opening ceremony rather happened at the weekend and people really got behind it they felt happy that it cleared the way for the Philippines to have a good tournament and now unfortunately the this storm has come in and affected around a dozen games today they've been the counsel to perspire and for another time but organizers say that they have no fear that they can get them all done before the games and then about a week and a half's time Howard Johnson and Miller thank you for that on to the latest round of global education tests that have been published by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development it's found that students from China and Singapore are the most proficient in reading math and science but the most successful country in Europe and one of the consistently good performers is stonier the B.B.C.'s Bronwyn Jeffries traveled there to find out how this small Baltic state has overtaken major economies to rival the great education powerhouses of Southeast Asia as she reports the successes built from the bottom up. Claim they are. Playing a picture card game the 6 year olds are in the last year of kindergarten almost every stone in child attends by the age of 3 at the latest and they stay here until compulsory school begins at 87 it's no wonder that kindergarten is popular with parents their contribution is kept at 20 percent of the minimum wage so no more than about 90 u.s. Dollars a month for each child here hello I'm a leader my child is given he is 6 years old and he will go to school next year for me his social skills are the main things because I can teach him letters at home but I can bring get. Friends today or I could have like 20 children over there that's the thing that I don't want that the education would be like you have to learn the only letters in mathematics that that will be choiceful that he can enjoy learning process so you know if it was the car that you are that. This lesson is all about words beginning with the letter l kindergarten in a stone it is led by teachers Crystal tricksy says she has a lot of freedom as the government only sets basic expectations they're like summarized the goals I child as you know how to read like a word with killer syllables in it well we actually have children who know how to read sentences so they're really easy guidelines. For throwing and catching for kindergarten lessons are as much about the physical and social development of children this is where is Stoney begins to close the gap between poorer and richer children in the stonier there are no compulsory national tests until the age of 16 is stonier borrowed ideas from Finland in the 90 nineties and there's been little change in education since although the economy has been transformed the Minister for Education Millis raps tells me they're trying to hang on to a traditional belief in education while making sure they invest in equal access what we have today is a mixture of tradition to study a lot a little bit like Asian countries who really study a lot of many many hours primers Corsican risk or professional education higher education it's all for free and for free in Estonia means really for free it's that you don't pay for textbooks you don't pay for the school lunches you don't pay for the school transportation you don't pay for the extracurricular activities in most cases music is compulsory until the age of 16.

In the run up to breaks it has decided not to nominate a commissioner as our Europe correspondent Kevin Connolly reports the new commission has plans on climate change but may find itself dealing with a familiar budget problems as well this changing of the god in Brussels is likely to mean a changing of styles of the top 2 with the avuncular eccentricity of. Giving way to the more conventional approach reversal of underlying brags it has diminished the commission you maritally it will sit with no British representative for the 1st time since the early 1970 s. Legal action against the u.k.

The winner of the prestigious are toward the Turner Prize will be announced in the English seaside town of market this evening and would end in for the editor of British Vogue will hand over the prize of more than $30000.00 to $1.00 of 4 shortlisted artworks that his favorites which was created by the Colombian artist of coma Rio consists of life size pub here mash a figures Thanks Terry Christmas Tis the season for speciality coffees and hot chocolates on the high street but coffee chains are failing to reduce the sugar content in their festive hot drinks with some increasing since 2060 That's according to a study by the charity Action on Sugar who said that those looking for an alternative to cow's milk or unknowingly consuming excessive sugar or got a bit more on the problem from our health reporter Michelle Roberts Well you can go into some shops and if you would these largest drinks so we're talking about something that is about a pint in size one of those could give you as much sugar as drinking 3 cans of Coke or eating 4 sort of white chocolate and strawberry muffins So we're talking about 23 spoonfuls of sugar in one drink one of the criticisms of putting this mounds of sugar in these drinks highlighting because many people would think that you go into a coffee shop and you see a gingerbread coffee or a hot chocolate with a huge amount of whipped cream on top and are not particularly concerned about the calorie or the sugar content so why are people criticizing it I think people know that they might go for this for a treat say you're right you're not going to necessarily think this is going to be a really low calorie low sugar drink but I don't know that people would fully appreciate the amount of sugar in there and also this report shows that if you shop around and you check tiny changes to a drink can make a big difference so they found that actually in some of the shops they went to if the drink had milk in it that was actually more sugary. In going for accounts milk drink so do you think on the part of the coffee chain's that they're putting things like milk which are perceived to be healthier alternatives in without knowing that there's a huge amount of sugar in them or is it more deliberate do you think the coffee shops do say they advertise and display the ingredients and you know the nutritional value of those things and it's all about options and taste so if you do check the menu you can have things tailored to how you like it so you don't have to have the high sugar but a lot of these drinks have pre-sweetened things going into them so the syrup you can get a lower sugar alternatives syrup but it depends you've got to know what you're asking for whereas the full sugar syrup is obviously going to deliver you a bigger dose do you think this will make a difference the fact that we're highlighter agreement to sugar and the number of calories in these drinks or people still going to enjoy their pint of sugary hot chocolate it's all about choices and sometimes you want just a quick shot of coffee a little Express though and off you go but if you're after a really nice woman hot chocolate but you don't want too much sugar then maybe you should check the menu see which ones got the lower sugar option but still taste good Michelle Roberts speaking to me earlier finally a story of perseverance which has landed a Japanese pensioner in a spot of trouble Akhet Toshi Okamoto rang a phone company 24000 times to complain about a violation of his contract he wanted the operator k. D.d.i. To apologize instead they called the police Catherine Davis reports persistent under scrambled the 71 year old refused to give up at one point he called the toll free customer service number more than 400 times in a single week Mr Okamoto is said to have been upset that his phone wouldn't pick up radio broadcasts and according to police he wanted a representative from the company to come to him and apologize eventually the volume of his calls became too large to ignore the pension I was taken into custody and could be charged under Japan's obstruction of business statute the country is facing a growing number of social problems caused by its aging population.

The castle has a tower on either sides and it's painted best all yellow on this bright August afternoon the color looks really vivid against the blue sky. And Kuhn is waiting to show was around. And behind you your 1st things are. All paper as I told you it suffered a lot so sometimes there are. Pieces lacking and then we use digital printing to complement it but we printed of course in the same color scheme. You can see the conditions are a bit better than the 1st because in smaller. They came here less often they didn't smoke as much in here and it's also the lesson your site on the other side is the morning sun all day when we open the shop is the period of let us hear the yes I think call it a very typical one you know the special is only experts recognise this time. With the problems going up and and the birds and a pheasant and the butterflies and if I would be confronting something like this they still much. To leap to details that will not be as rich as it looks in a small version of. Top of your or your body because you can also use just one section of the whole exactly you have these these and this so this goes no work you know so sometimes it is beautiful to see but you can't use it luckily there's a lot of my favorite already fearing what are you going to say when I drove the other one will see the choice of fabric or wallpaper is extremely important. And so is the performance aspect of her work because behind each of her camouflaged self portraits is an intense day long performance one she needs to prepare for like an actor preparing for a role and blurring the line between our temple formants is like coming home for Cecilia it's something she began an art school when she combined both theatre and out studies I didn't want to do so I went to both but I had to choose. A medium years later I entered the back stage of the Oprah which was 3 years ago and I smell the smell of the theatre you know the ropes and the backstage and and I would like Mike. I was so like this is my love you know and my husband told me Cecilia are you doing theater what are you talking about every one of these scenes is theater and that moralise made me a little bit coming to terms and peace with with this thing that they had no and in reality the personality that I have when I am doing the performance is the personality of the actor I am discovering that in reality I am doing theater. Like every actor Cecilia needs. Story to tell. Luckily disconsolate is full of them as its director tells us . What we see here from 877 as you can see and we have found it behind one of those things that was not in this room but in another room and it was written by 2 young come to sister who lives here and wrote a message for the future what are they say they are describing the sounds in their face that they have alone knows like everybody in the family still has a long nose and that they are happy they're proud to be Belgian and it is spending the summer here and in the p.s. They write today who at the Council will stand forever and that as long as the council will be standing there will bless the rooms with their presence. Ration to ghost I think it's going still has to show us his favorite the fabric wallpaper he hopes to use its cult an Indian captain and although this one is in a really bad condition the good news is that he can reprint the fabric and bring its original bright colors back to life. So imagine. To create a poor tree with these and a lot of flowing. On the floor it would be wonderful it could be wonderful really everything is possible and what Describe what you see with the flowers here the flowers and this thing here imagine. This once placed on the back of over body Ok so you have more space in your back to put these guys but the surely you move them and place them in the back. When you had seen the final probe that is the photo. Your mind forces your right to follow a sequence and that works on my favor and it is a wonderful model it is a little bit like falling in love when you see a wallpaper with falling left totally fully half of youthful era right but in combination with what you do not stand out any good this one. With. The body. Because it doesn't have too much color or whatever we can talk about initially about this to. Know in 2 months Cicely I will return to the council to reproduce the piece but I'm curious to find out more about the way she works we will decide what to paint and then we decide the roles this by the fact that I have almost every time the same group of collaborators every time we decide who is going to do what role and the role means from opening the door because somebody knocked at the door to the ironing for example last minute ironing because I use a lot of change. So everybody has a reason to be standing there and the main over whelming thing is the silence since I am being painted in the in the face I cannot talk so all the indications have been said before a 1000000 times I ask you have any question do have an equitable I cannot talk and this is it we're running it we start 7 am we shoot 3 pm. It's it's like being thing a canvas in record time off of hours you know and the end it is every time I sayed and people do not believe it and at the end there are very slick grain you know because it's super emotional and the whole process because it's so long and so detailed and so you know and you have to be very calm a it sounds like it's almost meditation for you because you're in a mystical these very mystical is and it is required and I was his call oh you know you have to have all the passion all this everything there. You know. Sometimes we finish shooting and I cannot really I cannot move like I am still with the character inside me and I am sitting down there you know until it passes are there a lot of people in collaboration actually you know not too many one now is we're living in Germany and we have a New York so you have to chase them all over the world. One month later at the end of September Cecilia travels to New York to meet up with one of her key collaborators Daniel Daniel is not only a painter but also a tattoo artist which seems like the perfect combination of skills to paint c.c.s. Body. In both cases I have to know the. Place or the place or the distance of that sort of the skin. Mary. There was maybe this is difficult. To me there are moments in this painting or. And look to use this comport of our memories compass for me I work in the us have a very thin skin I wonder how they prepare and match the colors without a real fabric in front of them we have to see. Really close. To the 3rd because the right after. Similar a very same set the same thing we can prepare it before but it's not the same. Moment that's the part that. Makes the horrors and some of them have to prove because when the pyramid this right yes. Surely some dollars but not every exact but broadly we have we know yes the break color of. The car with more white change more change. As the old they spent in silence how do they communicate during the process and is it possible to change anything at the very last minute he is painting a can of us. We can both do not move so you know. We we want to be as straight as possible sighted that's possible no music no soul no nothing breaks many breaks to have something to eat perhaps nothing here move your great crowd. On a smile. If you. Will. Always be there but the in the moment where we may be some of us. The change. In the moment is like a moment apart from a well known the creation of. The better way. Sometimes when we are. Doing things like. A painting when I had my arms up and it was the idea and then the idea of closing my arms in a series was more articulated or more stick. You know once you are they here those things can happen and he's you can you can change so far we are thinking about. The spirit of the letters in the courses. These days that we're going to be churning and. We are not sleeping we can be. You're listening to industry I'm sitting and I'm on the trail of Peruvian born artist Cecilia Paredes as she creates a new camouflage portraits at the castle in Belgium and if you're enjoying this episode you can find lots more by going to the b.b.c. World Service but site and searching for it in the studio. Another month later it's the end of October and Cecilia has finally settled on the 2 fabric wallpapers for this project. At the castle right now it's almost 8 o'clock in the morning. And I'm going to see Cicely happy because today she will through her 1st performance I have chosen to fabrics that are almost and the warning in terms of design one is very much. Charge and color for all and have. A sort of Asian whiff with Burton flowers and. Rolls on the table correct and the other one is more solve or more are the core just a pattern of 2 or 3 callers know so. I wanted to. To also portray the you and the only Corps the opposite because that also gives you a sense of time no one period and then the other one and you have some kind of story in your mind yes I have very much the story of the letters. That the princess is. Inserted. Between the wars these letters or this link between the past and today is very much in the same wavelength as some of my other works and when you read those wishes. In reality it's a common denominator to what we find here at the end is I want to continue be happy not. So it is a wonderful link to have this cover that for me as. In what my concerns and preoccupations as an artist and as a human being have you know I have to tell you also you don't look nervous or anything so calm year we have been meditating a bit things 5 am. So that I know. At this moment. My assistant is mixing the corners so we can go in and check oh here we live. Durham looks very bright speakers of it's large windows Ok so this is where the magic happens on the right there's a marble fireplace with a gold a mirror hanging above it. In the middle of the room they Neil is sitting in mixing the colors and on the left he's the chosen Indian captain Koonce favorite It has a beige background with branches creeping up words and on each one there's a selection of blooms leaves and birds all in muted shades of crimson move in the go and shade green. It's up humans and details and it's hanging on the wall but just a little bit of tape like a canvas. The fabric I did with the assistance of. The master textiles here from the castle is always like this or do you do you sometimes do it differently as it's well. Because now it's very flat on the wall yes no yes we sometimes we have it on to the floor and also with creases and foldings Yes yes we have we have than many in many occasions that different things and is it this time maybe because you really want to focus on the fabric itself well it depends on what you want to say so in this case we decided to do it like this because the information in the textile also is very crowded No it has a lot of information so you don't want to add. You know what I mean yeah my face is going to be facing the textile so my back is the one that is going to be telling the story it can be taken look at the what is to. Say you're getting the colors right now they know. The. Color because. Normally there is a strict rule No one is allowed into the room during the preparation or the performance so this morning I left them to concentrate but 3 hours later I discover I might be allowed in and there Cecilia space is not being painted for this performance she might even be able to talk a little bit. Someone's guarding the door to make sure nobody comes in during the painting. As I'm at it I'm hoping I get permission. Why. Is it possible to talk. To one Ok Ok Ok How long are you sitting in like this. Since we since we started. With afterwards that you lived. Through then. And how are you feeling well I'm feeling to finally right now will be called but everything you think you think you. Know. We have a lot to do. We're not into details you know details are going to think that I'm. Ok once we're done then we will have to figure out the light for the exit for the photo. And how long will it take to take the photo you think the photo is very quick always Ok before there is the quickest thing but this the process is as you say as you can see very normal Ok. So I will leave you in silence and I'll come back at a 3 Ok. Make it very thinly 30 Ok Ok if. You. Sell it that was quite intense. You could really feel the concentration in the room but at the same time I felt society of us so much more calm than I was she was like total relaxed in a zone but all I could feel was the tension in the room because some something well something was happening over there she was sitting in front of the fabric and. Yeah they real quick look at the fair pick in the same time with her pic they knew was painting very detailed already for me so I'm very curious how it will look at the end. This is going to be so. It's nice to get into the final stage of all this work is of course the finished photograph after several hours of painting Sicily I go straight to another room where photographer Bartz has set up his digital program and they immediately take a look at the images. I. Really I being to use you do but are we not really being left out for a little bit below for real so we have now the images that we see here today so we started to doing the photo of the ground the 1st one with no person and then Bart has documented some of what has happened and this is the 1st shot in a photograph Cicely I standing facing the fabric wallpaper she is partially draped in the same kind of material and you cannot really tell the difference between the fabric and they are painted back it is done so precisely when I came in the room you are sitting with your head a little bit down and I was thinking if you have to sit for hours in this position . I would be exhausted if I would do something like this. I am a very impatient person you know crudely expect invasion I cannot wait in traffic I cannot wait in you know. When it comes to work so you are really becoming another person actually you know. It well not that person but you discover certain. Of your own self that this will help for the next performance no doubt I will go to the think about what this is going to happen to morrow if this has been sort of Joyeuse sitting full of color. Birds and flowers one of to morrow's Morsi remember. Being even more. I hope. I hope some. Silence is a very good company.

And 36 days left presidential. To. You. Or me is information. And more. Right glad you're with us I Why is this guy the congenital liar they compromise corrupt shift House intel report accuses Trump of misconduct I've got the summary here it's full of lies all of it they have convinced themselves that something that is provably untrue and we had presidents Alinsky again this weekend saying once again. No pressured no quit or pro quo ever under any circumstances what I have no idea what you people over there are doing because it sounds nuts to me they had nothing but what hearsay witnesses and they had nothing but opinion witnesses they didn't have any real witnesses I mean that pretty much sums it up and the one real witness that they had what it President from say to you Well I asked them you know what do you want for the money not. Thing no quid pro quo all that came out but that was after he might have known about it it doesn't matter is not one person that they brought in that knows a single fact on their own not one I mean that that is what is so ugly and twisted in strange and bizarre about all of this that Kerry Picket will join us later in the program today in our news roundup hour and she has a piece on The Washington Examiner today how the House Intel Committee chairman Adam Schiff hired a former National Security Council aide who worked with the quote whistle blower the one that everybody has reported to be the whistleblower at the n.s.c. During the Obama and Trump administration the day after the phone call between Trump and Ukrainian president on Wednesday all that sounds like even a deeper conspiracy and corruption it sounds even worse than what we thought now this goes to Pat's a Bologna's point in his letter this is all unprecedented and the Republicans and Doug Collins leading the way who the governor of the great state of Georgia should be appointing rather than on oh no this person who is love Mitt Romney in love John McCain is really really no of Trump supporter but didn't support Trump at all in any way that we can find Oh and by the way these association with groups that don't seem conservative I don't know I wouldn't read too much into that you don't have to be assured that Doug Collins is a conservative you know I wrote a friend of mine about that today before I get back to this new story and you know it's a friend that knows Georgia politics extremely well and I was just trying to give him the lay of the land here and I just said you know I'm watching all of this and I said every single thing. That everybody in Georgia is now telling me and by the way Doug Jones will join us at the top of the next hour about what's going on down there it's all you know everything I hate about politics and politicians you know is Tell Me Well this is really about one guy that wants to sell funders so that his campaign will get more money and it's also about the fact that the current governor camp has a problem with the former governor and everything I'm hearing sums up everything that all of us hate about politics and politicians and frankly pave the way for Donald Trump success because they're really in Georgia for the governor ought to be one criteria only one and once that he was elected by the people of Georgia to serve the people of Georgia to serve the people they're supposed to be all of these politicians they're supposed to be public some servants to us we the people the people we're the ones that hired them and they spend every single waking minute moment in their lives you know worried about how they get to stay in power and where the next dollar is coming from and when the next you know a dinner is coming from and by the way I'll even add this the governor of Georgia you know this is not about serving Donald Trump even it's not although I would argue in that race I think that race Florida Donald Trump probably played a tipping point role Scott the Santas camp the wrong close races Donald Trump helped all 3 of them. But there but he should make it this issue with no consideration to trump my opinion and by the way he ought to be serving the people of Georgia now look they're making every justification an excuse for somebody that has no experience 0 experience like Hunter and somebody all evidence shows is a Romney McCain Republican and it's just like this governor George it doesn't care what conservatives in Georgia are saying about this that is why I can't be a Republican because we that's all we've gotten from the Republican Party you know that's why I'm a registered conservative you know especially like down in Georgia we seen Doug Collins of merge He's like a rock star a real deal conservative you don't have to make a 1000000 you know no no no you don't have to make any reassurances that this person is really a conservative because he is and that would be in line in my opinion somebody that lived in Georgia that was there I think I think Doug Collins is probably the bravest toughest most committed conservative sent since Newt Gingrich was elected and I was there the night that he became speaker and I was emceeing new gay marriages event and I was in 1994 Republicans had been out of power believe it or not no House of Representatives for 40 years but you got a proven rock star conservative his values represent the core values of Georgia Republicans because they are conservative. There is no need for any assurances about Doug Collins and how he will be as a senator because he has a proven track record of courageous conservative leadership and by the way what makes Trump different more than anything else is the fact that he fights like there's no tomorrow I don't ferocious lion. Who's who's angry and by the way we should all be angry this is this is what cleaning the swamp looks like every swamp creature Republican and Democrat hates Donald Trump wants to get rid of Donald Trump clearly the never trump or is in Georgia have gotten supposedly the conservative governor noticed our friend and he's a friend Eric Erickson you know tweeted out to me there's been nobody there's been nobody more conservative as a governor of Georgia the camp Ok this is not a conservative move I'm looking at this decision the most conservative candidate to be senator to replace Johnny Isaacson who I do like and I didn't hear it I'll go back later listen to it he gave as he delivered earlier today I think is good buys I like Johnny Isaacson I knew him when I was down when I lived in Georgia I like them a lot is a good person and we're praying for him I know I don't know what his health issues are but I wish him the best but Donald Trump fights for his promises and he keeps the tax cuts the largest in history burdensome bureaucracy got got got rid of more than we've got rid of in 100 some odd years and why do you think so many people show up at his rallies and so many people overflow outside is because they love the fact that Donald Trump is keeping his word he found a way to fund the border. He found he kept his word on judges he kept his word on better trade deals he kept is word he doesn't want to get involved in foreign entanglements but he beat the crap out of ISIS in Syria and he got rid of Baghdadi and look at the records wipe 34.533 and 34 percent 3 separate polls Donald Trump support with African-Americans because guess what he's done more with his conservative policies than any Democrat is ever done one record after another shattered for the betterment of our fellow Americans and people see it criminal justice reform I had some people oh I want to find every Alice very Johnson she's been on this program that served time one offense that is clearly reformed a track record of Bible study after bible study a mentor to the young girls going into prison never thought she'd get out of prison you know what that's the person goes to the microphones after she races into the arms of a loving family says thank you America thank you Donald Trump I'll never let you down Thank you for giving me a 2nd chance wow I'd love to see that every day find anybody in jail that deserves that amazing you know I've been on the radio now. 31 years since I started 24 years now my 24 the year of Fox forget about Donald Trump the person forget about it forget about it that's Linda forget about Donald Trump the person. Everything that I've supported in my life I made some changes I'm some opinions definitely more libertarian than I ever was you know I just we have to fix the economy we War and Peace matter we need the next generation of weaponry so we don't send kids to knock on doors after politicians send them the war and then say never mind a night and they end up politicizing war now every time you want to fight a war is to push buttons the only way now in the futures push a button we need offensive and defensive the next greatest generation of weaponry we better lead the way but it's not about Donald Trump it's about everything that I believed it my whole life tax cuts ending the bureaucracy energy independence judges the borders secure better trade deals Yeah that makes sense no I don't want to trade well I'm a free trader but I want better deals and we got them which upin Canada Mexico or Western European allies that's conservatism conservatism works record low unemployment conservatism Orks 8 years of fighting Obama what do we get 30000000 more Americans food stamps 8000000 more in poverty you've heard me say it as a zillion times no president in modern history has actually kept promises like this guy it's not about Trump it's you know I don't like the I don't like that he tweets Ok get over it that's my attitude I like the results I like Americans go back to work I like energy independence I like the fact that we are modernizing our our military I like the fact that we can make this a better place for our kids and grand kids and I don't care if they're Republicans or Democrats it could still be swamp creatures and I think what you see happening in Georgia is like swamp creatures. Now what you see with the corrupt congenital compromise congenital liar Adam Schiff right now in this report which I'll go over and I know everybody is a little wigged out over what we learned last night that the inspector general and the attorney general are at odds over the origins of the Trump Russia. Investigation that was not the mandate for Michael Horowitz and by the way you know I just have a lot to say on it and I'm not as bothered as some of you are and I am told that the facts stablished are devastating but remember Horowitz has already determined and said that he's putting forth for referrals Komi make a prolonging when none of them have been prosecuted so it really doesn't matter but Durham can convene a grand jury bring charges and indict. That's a good thing anyway 809 for one shot I'm getting all of this we got a lot to get to and Doug Collins will be here carry picket Colonel north we've got a busy day if you're looking for the perfect handgun and you believe in being a responsible gun owner believe in our 2nd Amendment rights Well what about the perfect what weapon for you that you'll learn to be safe with big news for you you know I'm a proud supporter of the 2nd Amendment the u.s.

As we roll along Sean Hannity Show right so the bombshells story deep state buys a report buys a report still due out Monday that is great news. And Wednesday Lindsey Graham is going to have Michael Horowitz let me let me just back your one up now I've made a lot of calls last night like wow there really has been now we understand why bars said the attorney general Bill Barr that this will be out in May and we heard June and by the 4th of July and August September October November here it is December something was not right I was getting frustrated you were getting frustrated we're all getting angry and I've been told repeatedly that will shock the conscience what they found but we already know certain things that you cannot avoid that was the premeditation meaning the f.b.i. The d.o.j. Warned about the dirty dot ca of Christopher Steele they knew that's a stablished we know Steele doesn't stand behind his own da Ca that is established his in Iraq a Tory They also offer to pay a money by the way to verify it needed and then we've got Hillary paid for it so then we find out it's a non verifiable document Bruce or one of them Kathleen Cadillac warned them they were there were other warnings so they used it anyway new NASA and the Grassley Graham memos bulk of information is used a lot of it's from the dossier that would mean every member of the infamous words of Vanderburgh Cape no dot ca no Pfizer Warry No you didn't mean them now he's saying of course he's covering for himself but he said it. So you got the inspector general I'm told yeah the facts are all there it'll he'll lay it out now the fact that he and the attorney general have a disagreement surrounding the origins of the Russia probe or the fact that maybe he doesn't make conclusions in his report is irrelevant because all of these facts as stablished matter in the sense from a legal sense will be devastating because we do have a criminal investigation the origins of the Russia witch hunt that was always the prosecutor John Durham is realm that was not what Horowitz was originally tasked to do so doesn't matter but now we know Durham's investigation goes into Horowitz's work and beyond and then remember the statements of the attorney general so where are my on this you know I'm told by people that know the facts are going to be laid out and that that information now will be used by the prosecutor dorm and it's very clear where the attorney general stands on all of this which is yeah there's corruption at the highest levels and this is the worst the scene let not your hearts be troubled because on mine. To be sure it is you as you want to point out that Camilla caring always easy to hear his explanation president's counsel appearing on Wednesday that it is serious a result. The other guys.

Broadcasting from the Sobieski studio this is News Radio 450 mile and nobody else can get joint bid you $9.00 for his project. See there was absolutely nothing to do legal scholars to get into dressers here today and they said these are absolutely perfect when he uses the word concept to falsely 2 of them were absolutely perfect calls and I think it's a very bad thing for our country doesn't cancel the justice then the Democrats are going to service the country which they have they wasted a lot of time with trying to get prescription drugs reduced very substantially we can do it easily. I call them with. The very. Thing from the. Telegraph and chip isn't there. He grew up with a complex for lots of reasons of use and he gives a very sick man and he lies made it more going to say sure the pros are brilliant Now one of the reasons people keep talking about it is that's what this show we are a perfectly beautiful 3 or 4 page grid search and then the other cases to very sure introduction of the conversation but a lot of people do read that how many people call you a friend of mine you go about the top person in New York rolled up river in reverse successful Gee I didn't like what was said I said oh well you see it bigger it nor they read it I heard Adam Schiff did it as that with us that was said and I sent him a copy of what was said he says this is like this is great this isn't what he should do sorry sick he made up the conversation Eli if he didn't do that in the halls of Congress he's thrown into jail but he did it in the halls of Congress and if you're going to reiterate this is a sick person who's a liar and by who are you Nancy Pelosi you know we was lying and she went on her show Stephanopoulos and she should be told the truth so she was a lawyer do these people are the range so to make sure you're right on that you would say on the bigotry that you discussed before the Moeller stuff you'd say leave that out I think that there are opportunities but right now we have a clear to. And I believe that we should follow this one you know I've used examples where you have had mob bosses who have committed atrocity after I. Had violated the criminal code. Of conduct and we got them on. One narrow case but they get sued time and what's important right now is that for this particular present. That we know how many cases where we can impeach him on that we focus on the one that the public's paying attention to and. Congresswoman it sounds like you were artfully. Making a comparison on the legal precedent to this president Al Capone. I think you say Al Capone I 1st that was the president and that's him by the way overseas dealing with this crap which should anger every American also because you know what they knew that the president was going away and guess what they just don't really seem to care all that much do they they really don't on and you know ship has a lot of issues obviously in this and now I think what we're fine finding and shipped is hiring a former n.s.c. Colleague of the whistleblower that the press tells us is the whistleblower. The day after Trump's Ukraine call that's not suspicious really you know I know Linda doesn't like it but I can do it again there is a quid in a prone to quote which oh you know you're not getting the 1000000000 you're not getting the $1000000000.00 and I'm not going to we're not going to give you $2000000000.00 They said you have no authority you're not the president the president said I said call on. Us and I'm telling you not getting the new dollars I sent you not getting a 1000000000 I'm going to be leaving here I think it was what 6 hours I looked as I'm reading to 6 hours of the prosecutors not fired you're not getting the money post son of a. Fired son of a Be he got fired son of a b. . At a pro and a quo and he's bragging about why because the New York Times and others told him that the prosecutor the guy's name show can interviewed by a.b.c. Washington Post John Solomon Yeah that that prosecutor guess what was investigating his 0 experience son how do we know His son of 0 experience Well we 1st learned about it in secret empires the book by our friend Peter Sweitzer then I think for 49 year old guy that had time to prep the worst interview I've ever heard in my life this is a hunter you're doing what did he think you were doing well he read the press reports that I joined the board of Bristol which was a Ukrainian national gas company and there's been a lot of misinformation about me not about my cat nobody buys that but it buys this idea that I was unqualified to be on the board what were your qualifications to do whatever I was vice chair of the board of Amtrak for 5 years I was Amtrak the board of the un World Food Programme I was a lawyer for boys Schiller a lawyer one of the most prestigious law firms in the world you didn't have any extensive knowledge about natural gas or Ukraine itself though. No but I think that I had as much knowledge as anybody else who was on the board if not more in the list you gave me the reasons why your on that point you did not list the fact that you were the son of that of course it. Will do you think that played I think that it is impossible for me to be on any of the boards that I just mentioned without saying I'm the son of the vice president and 6 you were paid 50 $1000.00 a month for your position look I'm a private citizen and one thing that I don't have to do sit here and over my computer as it relates to how much money I make or make good dear didn't but it's all been reported if your last name wasn't by do you think you would have been asked to be on the board of a recent I don't know I don't know probably not I don't think there's a lot of things. What happened while life than that if my last name wasn't pine I once I was a lawyer I sat on the board of Amtrak What does that have to do with anything for energy No I have no experience in Ukraine energy oil gas but I was paid millions and millions of dollars but how dare you ask me how much I was paid in ne of the only reason I got it is because my dad acquitted a pro in a quo with Joe 100 in one or was being investigated and Joe knew about it and this is where the bifurcation thing comes in with somebody's brain because your brain has to be literally cut in half to forget that whole quid pro quo with Joe that's provable and instantaneously and believe the crap that the compromised corrupt congenital liar is pushing with this trump your crane impeachment inquiry report today the president's misconduct was to present condition to White House meeting in military aid to Ukraine on a public announcement of a best a geisha is Ok the guy got the money there was never a public announcement member Jim Jordan when was the announcement and saan been whatever his name is Saddam and Sohn Lin never what meeting there was no meeting the mind stop press in the button that was me someone whatever there was no meeting there was no announcement oh what announcement about you know the things that he was doing for Trump there never happened. Oh Ok well that means that there's no quid pro or quo Ok then this that but you got it with John Doe That's the point the president's request for a political favor though the president was saying Fix your corruption fix the corruption and by the way I see you're hanging out with a lot of these guys. That oh your predecessor was hanging out with. And by the way hang on I got us on the tax here. 33390 so I So what they're saying the president's obstruction of House of Representatives impeachment inquiry inquiry he obstructed Oh why because they have executive privilege and he's protecting the office of the presidency he's protecting the executive branch which by the lie Bill Clinton did and everybody else has done before him and what they're saying is all right the lies you can't have honest conversations and give the president honest advice if you're going to be compelled to tell everybody what your advice was that's why executive privilege exists that's actually a national security issue that's you know the things that yeah well no president is ever going to get honest advice if everybody thinks everything they're saying to the guy is going to be leaked to the media or that they're going to have to testify under oath before a corrupt Congress like that of the congenital liar compromise chef but the president condition the White House meeting a military aid to Ukraine on a public announcement that never happened that never was said aid was never mentioned in the call Zelinsky again this weekend says I have wondered whether you people doing this never happened. That never happened never felt it never happened not a big deal the president did tell that guy Don't surround yourself with the same corrupt people of your predecessor though and the idea that oh I thought election interference mattered what happened at least according to Politico and least according to Ukrainian court I thought that mattered apparently it doesn't matter the president removed Ambassador you Vonne of it what Ok that was Obama's pick She was also offered another job and it would tell you that in the media he was also offered a job over choice tell us what you want his hand-picked agents begin the scheme the only scheme is shift we're learning today hires the guy best friend of the whistleblower to work in his office I mean this stinks to high heaven this after 3 years of Mahler 3 years of of Trump Russia the president's agents pursued a drug deal. Every witness was a hearsay or a an opinion Witness None of them had any facts and you know the report released by these people prepares to hold a purse to impeachment hearing Wednesday which we're going to hold a talk show like Jerry Springer or Morton Downey will have lawyers that are liberal temper John of internally and will say oh well no he's a Democrat we have to yeah impeach him Ok bring in Alan Dershowitz and then Greg Jarrett and the McCarthy any of these no they don't want to do that this inquiry is not the organic outgrowth of serious misconduct It's an orchestrated campaign that's been ongoing since 2 days after Trump selected a lawyer for this whistleblower so-called hearsay whistleblower Yeah the coup is begun 10 days after the inauguration of Donald Trump you know that all of this the abuse his office and gave to bribery and extortion No the only one that did that was Joe Biden. This is now you need to understand this report it's all the same false narrative as they've been advancing since the 2016 elections there is no evidence of any wrongdoing no high crime no bribery no misdemeanor none whatsoever they never did anything and they got the money and the guy never felt any pressure to do anything otherwise he probably would have just done it immediately like let's see the prosecutor that got fired because a job with holding a 1000000000 you know the president's longstanding concerns about corruption were justified he said it on the call don't surround yourself with those people the aid to Ukraine only exists because the president authorized it in the 1st place a low that launching this inquiry over policy disagreements these sanctimonious ambassadors that think they were elected president the president has been beyond transparent this is now just a canard other coup attempt the best part of the news that I can give you the day is this and $336.00 days you get to decide you get to weigh in you and you've got Democrats quietly debating expanding the impeachment articles now beyond Ukraine let's add everything to it we'll go back to the report let's add Stormy Daniels to it whatever I am telling you I've never seen anything by the way John Podesta apparently set up a fund raising meeting for fusion j.p.s.

Own 080-731-2000 how are you doing I'm fine thank you are you feeling good I'm feeling amazing i k I want to start from the beginning I know we spoke about this the other day we're going to go back and I know you probably set these so many times it's so good but a lot of people hide in the office today we've got he's producing us tonight was ahead of sport here and he came out of China is how is the king of China is what does the day. I want to fast and foremost before you tell us who the king of China's is when was the king of China's born. Oh what the yeah not you so why do you decide that I think it's a is when do you like the passion begin from from 8 years old I use about about 78 years old I want to say how old I am but my mum used to like Boris Becker Ok And she came to me smiling from ear to ear so yeah. Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah and basically because he was a tennis player my love tennis to anything he wore and what he wore one in. She would buy me you know back then he was wearing I might I said Browning's I don't brag about that about you know if I was a bride about the adorer Elise and stuff are you buying them because so you know she's you know from gone or is she good and she's like anything which is good so it will be the sneakers and I'll be wearing them to junior school and then fast forward to going to just ask a question you know you were wearing them to junior school one of the kids wearing Well I mean the time you have to understand that to spend 50 pounds plus on any pair of where it was like crazy Yeah yeah it was 2 that I didn't die you know yeah I'm young. So other kids weren't wearing like brand name shoes you know that you would see in like expensive shops and stuff like that you know somewhere I mean it wasn't really until like mainly like late juniors and secondary school where you start spending over 100 pounds yeah yeah and I was you know I'm very blessed like thank you to my mum my sister I was picked out in the ladies' trainers and I used to go to the States every year every summer. To New York or kind of the and to bring back the trainers and back then before the Internet you couldn't get the sneakers which Americans say in the u.k. Yeah so after some holidays I'll come up with a fresh pair and my friends would be like I haven't seen them and then they'll find out they come in the stores about. 6 months later really yearly or don't come at all and then that's how it opened an offering of the king you know you always had the late yeah yeah I mean off that yeah I'm not a lot you know I love I love trainers like for your passion can I am going to jump a few questions but I just need to know this now go and do you know how many pairs how many pairs of trainers he actually I will. I don't I don't count and I always tell people it's not about the quantity is about quality I mean that was another question I was going to ask you here let's see over quantity correct I understand so you must have a cross like a Kim Kardashian close it right where you have the really elite expensive ones. That you could then You mean you've known them once but you're not going to wear them again and you could sell them but you're not going to sell them but perhaps give to your great grandchildren to invest when they need the deposit I have I have a few in London I haven't yet there are that expensive but yeah I mean to be honest like I have got I have my office I have a storage room at my parents' house and I have a whole room a good sized room full of trainers Oh my and yes he said they were only in really good condition most of them are but a lot of them are really old slab it was not broken and you know a lot of the time I'm not I must say a memory that I have of my teenage years was when t.n. 1st came out yeah yeah so I remember my dad getting me a parity ends and I honestly I was such a trauma kid growing up I could not sleep the night before because I was so excited about showing off my knee to you yet. How you would say Now I don't even know the ladies time is out so it's my destiny and not eyesight I think is I mean it's the excitement I think when I tell people about of what we've seen in sneakers and stuff they they don't get it yeah I mean but you have to there's such a real passion in the community around it what would you say is your favorite China all the time oh wow. Just I mean I grew up on a night there are other fans of prevailing. I don't know it is I mean for me I would I would possibly go between a Jordan 4 and a. A t w you take a much the edge off way $989.00 yes only because of the stories connected so for me it's about a story connected with the train so you go to the states and you go to the states courts a lot there's a huge price difference in the states yes and it's a case of things come out in the States 1st and then they come out here or are they going to be things that come out in the States and never come out here and the beauty is is that you can say you got this fresh from the states Yeah I mean it is a bit like that to be fair the States back in the ninety's the exchange rate was good yeah so so I remember when it was like 2 for one yeah yeah yeah I'm that old. Yeah I remember those days but I'm not like I is it isn't I looking one day you got a late like I don't follow him but no it was like that so technically I used to like also pretty much change for my for my friends and I was what you call reselling before people even knew what it was while they might have to exchange rate so if I if they gave 100 pounds out of most $100.00 they didn't know the difference so I would Ok cool and hope that they'll tell me to just keep you know what you know but they were so excited to get a new pair and and what you have you back then you had country exclusives Yeah so the country exclusive could be sold in the states and not come to the u.k. Or Europe and then you just want to get there which is the main price in Europe is it you can I would I would say I would say London I mean London Amsterdam Germany have had very massive sneak communities but London you know especially now with the Internet I understood now stores we have here yeah London is is is this is Oh no yes I've got so many questions going to try attracting them. But there are some people in the room right I'm not going to look all some people in the hall to God to get really jealous off because there are a women out there. Trying to. Translate. This if you can sorry for the past yes I'm here period off with same right where you can say 1st see pound I'm not trainers Yes I get in the 5 and a half 4 and off I see a long way into a full or nah why are you like why is that has nobody clocked that women are doing that no not really and you know what it is I don't think any of the brands of stuff can do anything about you because they they make the shoe a little bit different foot a foot for the kids and the younger sizes something different different Surely it's the same so if it's I don't know an Air Force One isn't his name for a look and I thought he would walk if this was the same Yeah if it's like I train of air bubble because some. Jordans won't have the Ebel for the kids would have the right front sold you know because the way to solve them made it their expensive to produce a smaller sold me to him was a try so why are you trying to search Spencer why this and let me tell you this right yeah I will pay if I have the most I want to shop a Harley let me just say yeah but I would look on a pair of boots and they're good color yeah i know i have big face so I have to allow for that I would pay $15200.00 pounds on the defensive end of bets while I look at sneakers. Spend about about on us know how to turn them in that no no I don't know right and I'm like. 150 I really like them and I can wear them on road in every 3. 100 you know you know you know so I'll be honest with you. You are paying for the brand name if I'm honest like 60 percent in the brand name but sometimes it's connection of the story they add to it because now there's a lot collaboration's and things like that and then they they just bump up the price and stuff but it's still the same shoe if I'm honest and now they sell so quickly so you have the receipt you have the aftermarket So for example a pair of Kanye West trainers It was so for a router for the retail for 160 and then it will I'm so for on the market for maybe I want to talk. Crazy and listen we're going to come back to that we're going to have a wretch spin around and we'll come straight back to you. Know watch them. And . See the do you know watch them. And it. Goes on with. Trying to find a message and. To. Spin it around with a round. That's been around. And a fantasy. It's. Been around the around you know. Around. From the so connect circling the band's late nights with. My friends trying to. Bridge. The fish. Sticks. Around become a free to you know around one shot back pitch on the song that you can hold down the. China fantasy just. To. Spin around with. It's been around around to find a message and. To. Spin around to around. And around around. For me to pray for me. To take. Someone to replace some of. The show he just pushed by me say fine. Don't push it push trying to find suitable. To. Spin around with a. Spin around town and a friend a message and. Spin around with around you know right. Around. And I know watched. And. Seated and then I watched. You. And that was Rex 3 to spin around not that if you're a regular listener to this scene but he was on our show was it last week that as a amazing right I was so excited but I wasn't here anyway you can listen back to that interview on Jasmine does he want his show on b.b.c. Sounds now you are listening to Rafael Coleman and the wonderful Kim Davis a we all sitting in for or the silence of my When the cats what's all say. When they cut the way you know when the comedians who apply there when the comedians are white the princesses. The queens will play I we're also joined by a king in the sea Jack I feel very honored. By the way the king of China's thank you so weird too much right now yeah thank you and listen if you've got any questions for Franklin trying to sneak plimsolls whatever it is it is Cyber Monday to die Oh yes. Oh they really bargains you know it was black struck white Friday last for exactly the same price. You know you might get in but is it really a bargain for oh Should you wait for the South or there's a huge department store at the end of Oxford Street that was during 20 percent off the c.e.o. Of Fame the 15 Island I know roads mankinds in there and then No no no. You frankly not the way. It's no being in full and other brands are available Nike or Adidas they were going in for the design so the blend see. Them a quick Rosemont of that I'm sure I don't mind is prepared to spend on I can cite 4 bills but you mean 400 coal bills 5 bills right on China and there's a thing I want to find out about what is it about young men and young women I know what can close culture really. Pull people whatever you want to say what trainers have connected in a way I wouldn't say like for example in Jamaica and other brands are available but in Jamaica it's all about cloak cloth Yeah yeah what is it about Irene is that you know whether you got. High end you know if you went to sketch or a. If you went to a council estate you're going to say something that people have in common a bribe train is in your hands what is it like you know when I was when I was younger we used to say that wearing a nice pitcher is like having a gold meddling in it while you know and I'm from the generation where unfortunately you would get robbed if you have a train a pair of trainers of 100 pounds so is sometimes is that status symbol when it's like you know because when you're like. 1516 you technically can afford a Rolex watch Yeah that yeah maybe you can I don't know where there are but but it's like when I had a new pair of trainers It was it was really like. Having a Rolex watch and it was like just. I don't have the time to the people coming up to you and say you know when you get those and stuff like that and it's a real culture and a community in itself you know and yeah yeah I must say the one thing that I noticed as of late and like you said Kim you've referred to his road men but I'm seeing kids teenagers you know I spoke about t.n. 120 pounds which is my dad now that I am of age Ok my dad I'm seeing kids now in sight. And Alexander McQueen's And these are your 40500 pound train and yeah what happens is they've got that but they haven't even got a fiver in their pocket I tell you what I get Yeah everything into having a nice pair of trainers and friends and I think it's funny you say that because on Fridays I do something called financial Fridays but I was so even though I promote where I was I have a sense of possibility as a you know an elder in the game to at least older kids you don't have to buy everything it's Ok you know but you have to understand that society is becoming a fit in in society so when something's hot or the kids need to have a bite so you can talk about school or stuff like that by always say look you don't have to buy everything you know but there's a lot of peer pressure if you don't have the latest or you know Christmas comes your mum and dad have saved really hard and they've bought you the train is that you were talking about in February and you were talking about in February but now come December here I was I don't you know no actually I'm not sorry to interrupt you guys but we've just got a text from Abraham in and failed and he has asked Should I buy my wife a good pair of China is worth 40 pounds or he was costing 70 pounds for Christmas bless me I will go the higher the price of what is my view I think it was bad minus your wife like so definite had a higher price tag. You can just thought you'd say I could just didn't care about the. You can afford it get both yes it's not from Madison thank you for taking it for him or anyone else has any more questions for the king of China's please do give us a tax 183-1700 starting the tax with the when you. Get it Ok. Let me just because you are you guys trying to train a version of. My face I want to pull through a start your message with the word London I would like to know who I weigh 207312000 get in touch Franklins I may have pushed about time off to make anything you want within reason you can buy Kim What else have we got to ask you one thing I want to know was about women in China yeah I'm sure a couple of girls are further on Instagram now I need to write show off that they've got the light since they show off with the fact you know a lot rough they can get into the smaller for. Me of course. But you know with women which I find really sexy I have to size when you've got. Yeah and you've got a pair of trying what that will like the rush from home kind of thing the whole no no no one way and you've got your. Milk I think it's a whatever and you're just rushing you know it's a bit like how interested I put I haven't got proper trying is I've got like you know from one of the big stories gone yeah but I just think a woman in a sea and China's looks most I think likewise with a dress depending on the dress the nice dress with triteness and I just think just . You know a lot. Of people. Which were with dress the guys and just finally caught on but a lot of women will see 300 pounds if you're trying to get out you have not. Have to keep on the do you want a vital I have a question here. One of the pieces also to our system she says and she said you know she wants the nice he's the can we not why. Does a guy have to be into had trainers for you to date me not necessarily to be honest it does help me you know if she was into her trainers but not necessarily now. It helps a nother question for me if you when we think it's all funny sad Ok if you went out with a guy on a date and she came through with some horrible kicks What would you do you I would tell her. What about when someone stands on your time as I accidentally did be all day oh yeah I still am not I I'm not going to say to Brown by I do work for a cleaning assessor company so I'm good I can feel right. Now would I would say I would be like you know if it was to be honest I'm not a Bronson op if that makes sense sounds like i'm no no no I'm not Brother No No No Ok if they wanted busted yeah then I would have to say Son have you got children I have core of my fibro dear oh I got a boy he's got he's got a prince a train is so. Far it's the law Yeah he's got everybody needs Yeah there are yeah yeah yeah do you ever think you would create your own line of China's I have for about that I would rather collaborate so any brands out out there I'm here to collaborate on it. But no I mean I would you know what it is I have helped I'm going to say who I felt I felt I had a list all with his train a line Ok and then we say names we've got my draft is in the c j I see this to mean I'm the world's last concept from another name I don't know I'm right it's a business model Ok Ok let's say you know I can say you see London you know he's from the states from California and he was on the phone he was on one of the biggest b.b.c. Shows as a as a judge by Conseco Johnson as a paid guy. Going to. Hell I got a negative number and he was in a group and they are. He's going yeah Simon Callow not.

Want to give him a clue that you're going this way with you've got to say that night he was saying You're all unfolded and that the kid was a camera. There which right now that I'm covered. Never mind and with kids oh Ok a predicate Ok Ok you're on a 5 and 6 I follow up Ok Ok And what was Mike formerly known as before success b.r.s. The ones that. The police will simply return company cannot be. Care system not it's very. Surreal to. Carry. Come on this. Thing are companies and their support groups were very very sorry I suppose who took this beautiful beautiful word that you have got 5 or 6 Well Don thank you thank you so much if you haven't written a book I don't trying it you know what that actually comes into my mouth but after that. I have like we're going to talk about Imam get my hopes on guys I'm really loving this Saturday I think I'm going to start that. Yes Ok so I was alluding to in my social media I have a special word excuse for not for this show the world exclusive announcement for the show so basically so I do an award show Kentucky awards and one of my the people I quote I'm not my kingdom so I say every woman is a member of my kingdom so when the members of my kingdom a snake head and a friend he d.m. To me I mean it could Mike. And he said. It What do you do sneak out a decade. So I was like a 4 button us off thanks my maybe I'll do that but I kind of I kind of built on the idea so basically you see if I want to drop is I much going to make sneak a decade a book. Any you know any book I'm not going to make it the 1st sneak a book written by the consumer in the community so I think that sounds Ok what I mean by that is most sneaker books are written by experts in the activity and they're in by a group of elites and stuff like that but this book that's going to be written by the consumers so to day starting from right now you can go on sneaker of the decade dot com and you can submit your entry of what you feel is the sneak of the decade before that in which he tends to 2020 I'll be collating up 210-0100 entries maybe Michael over and we will publish them in a book so it's going to be the 1st book we've done by the consumers of our community and you have picture yeah people who are coming to be invited to have their comments as to why yes yes I wrote Man I know how I don't like how I care I want I want I want entries from you guys ever had a right to say I lost that link again where can people get a sneaker of the decade dot com sneakers they can only. Call and they can submit their entry of what they feel is the best sneak to release in the last 10 years the best sneaker to really yeah a lot of you I mean you got to bring them back. If you're going to what I say that's harder you know you know but what we'll be doing is it's just going to be like a massive book for the community and I think I've been done some doing this for the community for everyone who loves the consumerism and just the passion to train and frankly I know it's a passion you know I've got a passion. And everything I thought but. I don't know what you get out of this what do I care I mean it if you can't even put into words Milla Kingdom now working there I don't for me no you know what it never started off there I mean now it's turned into a business in itself by never start of like that was a passion it was a punch line and I think we're social media you know as I teach social realities different things are shrinking Ok I love trainers How can I turn myself into lack of a brand on online but then I also know is that people don't know about a story so I always consider stories often stories about when I was younger I had trainers and we had to do to get trainers and people just like the following like my stories and and the way I express myself you know so now I mean I I really do have a love I try what I do chemistry. My parents are from Jamaica I've just come back from Jamaica with a surname what's hang you want gone away and yes I have to say you know what my Yeah. They have a lot of fake training yes they see they have thought in Ghana they didn't really have thought about Russia and you can you spot Yes Yeah they have some some real fakes and you can spot them yeah I mean if I'm honest a lot of the fakes now are kind of near identical Ok yeah I mean that's that's a massive fight yes I can you still can cause a lot of Made in China right yes correct and you can still see some people just console but among other thing is where is hair people will spend and it's all about being able to see that if people see that frankly has got these off white trainers and people know that they're for 500 pounds it doesn't matter whether you've actually been handed them the people will say that you've got access to yes in poorer countries where it's still important about how you look you know and Jamaica we call it name brand name so your trainers sneakers so important credit they're not going to be able to afford that money is not the whole thing of about. Almost like capitalism in how these big country or these big companies have been able to push these brands into these countries yeah I do I do speak out about something that I think well and I'm I'm very you know we also give a lot to charity Yeah yeah so we with all of my friends Kristie has a book called The World in the feet has some good healing souls where we actually give me good trainers every I mean is trying to Jermaine Carr Mauritania Morocco France we could change with old world and every Christmas we're going to you catch us on New Year's Eve If you want to join us I'm Christmas Eve sorry we'll be giving trains to homeless people on our own cross you know every every year for the past 5 plus years you know we've we've been given trainers and food and clothing to the whole piece of yeah I know you going to go for Christmas I'm not going Oh no I know you but I'm going to see now yeah and I know because they're saying gone as an alibi of Africans are loads of people going to be there my friends I my family always say come over but you know even me I've got a place out there as well I know what you got Yeah you have to say oh it's fine if you like me think that that's a conversation for you to do you know I think about it I actually only know what I don't know yet you know what.

It's Morning Edition from n.p.r. News I'm Noel King in Washington d.c. And I'm David Greene in Culver City California NATO was formed in 1990 counter Soviet power 70 years later as NATO opens a summit in London the family is just not getting along one member Turkey has largely gone rogue fighting its own battle in Syria President Trump meanwhile has criticized the alliance even as he has pressured countries to pay more money into it the president of France Emanuel McCraw is warning that NATO is experiencing quote brain death Turkey's president Rigi tape aired on said maybe McCrone should check whether he is brain dead right things could be awkward when aired one McCrone Trump and company get together this week Ambassador Douglas Lute served as the u.s. Envoy to NATO from 2013 to 2017 appointed to that position by President Barack Obama and he joins us this morning good morning about or good morning I just can't get brain death out of my head I mean are things that bad that NATO. Well you know I don't think so I think the president across was making a point. While needle faces a whole series of very significant challenges I don't think these challenges are extensional and I don't think NATO approaches anything like brain death but what is the biggest challenge that you see. Frankly I don't think it has to do with France at all I think it has to do with the White House for the 1st time in the 70 years of Nato's history we have a president a u.s. President who questions the value of NATO who takes some sort of the you in being a figure of disruption who is unpredictable and who is not reliably committed to this alliance which is for 70 years been a cornerstone to American security so that absence of reliable u.s. Presidential leadership in my view is the most serious challenge that NATO faces today well let me just push you on that a little bit because I'm the man who heads NATO u.n. Stoltenberg the Norwegian politician who's in charge of the Alliance has said that that there's more money coming into the lands today from member countries that is something that President Trump pushed very hard for and that that has made the alliance stronger so could could you argue the President Trump while he is criticize is actually strengthen strengthen the alliance Well actually it was in 2014 that the allies agreed to move towards 2 percent of their g.d.p. Committed to defense spending so that actually happened under President Obama's watch it's true the President Trump Paris amplified the message that European allies have to step up and do more but me but actually it's nice presidents to whom I give credit for increased European defense spending I think the president who deserves that credit is applied to mere Putin to. Because if it were not for his aggressive actions in Ukraine in 2014 I don't think that the political motivation for European allies to increase spending would have been there so we may be focused on the wrong president well part of my Crohn's concern is u.s. Leadership I mean even saying that NATO members can't rely on the United States to defend them anymore which is that an incredibly powerful accusation where specifically do you see u.s. Leadership lacking. Well I think it was most prominently displayed when President made his 1st trip to NATO and shortly after being inaugurated in May of 2017 and he stood before a artifact a large metal twisted iron beam taken from the remains of the North Tower in Manhattan after the attacks on $911.00 and the idea here was to commemorate at NATO headquarters this very historic day in NATO it's history this is be the only time that NATO declared its mutual defense clause the sort of famous Article 5 so an attack on one is considered an attack on all and NATO allies on 9 twelfth's the day after $911.00 came to our defense so there was this memorial that was all set up to be unveiled in May of 2017 and it's even called the Article 5 Memorial and the whole purpose of president trumps trip was to have the new president newly elected president recommit to this to this decades old pledge that America would be there if Europe needed us and vice versa but as he stood before this memorial on that day he refused to say the words Article 5 and instead he turned to his European counterparts who has a murky and so forth standing there listening to his remarks and lambasted them for not committing enough to defense so it began on that day in May have 2017 but he's been quite consistent there after revealing in public comments and at NATO sessions and in front of his colleagues. That NATO is not worth it has not worthwhile for American commitment and that's that's very damaging because NATO is an alliance built on American leadership you really believe that the United States under present jump leadership wouldn't. Be there in a moment of true need for a NATO country of the for the Alliance so I wouldn't go that far and it's not necessary to be absolute here the question is whether there has been doubt imposed on the answer to that question and I think that certainly rhetorically President Trump has imposed out. Just in a few seconds but what are you looking for most closely is this the summit opens this week well if if if I could design a summit who would have just really one outcome or as they say in policy circles one deliverable and the deliverable for the London meetings this week would be a show of unity show of solidarity so that the world sees NATO as coherent as cohesive and as committed to it to confronting these challenges it faces so for example the key. The key recipient of that message would be Vladimir Putin so solidarity is the one commitment former u.s. Ambassador to NATO Douglas Lute thanks so much for your time this morning Ok thank you for the past few weeks the island nation of Malta has been in turmoil over the murder of an investigative journalist it's been more than 2 years in the murder still hasn't been solved but now multis prime minister says he's going to resign after allegations that his top aide was complicit in the murder Joanna Kiss' has the story prime minister Joseph Muscat says he will step down after January 12th it's a less than honorable exit for the charismatic 45 year old leader who was once the golden boy of this Mediterranean island nation his downfall began with the 2017 murder of them all those most prominent journalist Stephanie Cutter want to believe for.

As would be caught and punished we're giving orders or system investigators to make sure that we get to the bottom of it this is a difficult period but the alteration that is shown by government by the people shows that this is not what we stand for is not something that we would brush aside but how do want to go if he has family accuse us Muscat of protecting those who masterminded her murder including his top aide Keith scam Barry in a recent podcast for the British journalism site tortoise cut I want to go let's see as youngest son Paul explains his anger.

This is Morning Edition from n.p.r. News I'm David Greene and I'm no well King good morning and there is an old saying in this country politics ends at the water's edge at the moment that feels kind of out of date and here's why President Trump will be in London for a NATO meeting this week at the same time that the House Judiciary Committee holds its 1st impeachment hearing N.P.R.'s White House correspondent Tamara Keith looks back at the last impeachment and what President Trump could learn from it it was September 1998 Clinton White House Press Secretary Joe Lockhart remembers waking up in the ambassador's residence in Dublin Ireland to unwelcome news from back home there were rumors going around that Joe Lieberman was going to go to the floor of the Senate or make a statement about impeachment he didn't know what the conservative Democratic senator from Connecticut was going to say but he knew it wasn't going to be good Lockhart was waiting for President Clinton to come downstairs for a breakfast meeting and dreading it among the staff we were all basically trying to figure out who was going to tell us Lockhart says they expected a blow up but instead Clinton told them I know this is going to happen you know don't try to talk him out of it it's his time to say what he thinks and you know we all kind of sat there stunned that he was so stoic about it I rise today to make the most difficult and distasteful statement Lieberman did speak his mind even as Clinton was in Ireland to tout the historic peace agreement with Northern Ireland he had helped broker earlier that year after 7 months of denying that he had engaged in a sexual relationship with Ms Lewinsky the President admitted that his quote public comments about this matter gave a false impression as President Clinton's impeachment drama unfolded going overseas gave him little refuge from the political storm it's a taste of what President Trump can expect this week as he meets with foreign leaders while the House Judiciary Committee the bait. The fate of his presidency Clinton was in the Middle East when that same committee then led by Republicans passed a 4th article of impeachment Mr Chairman there are 20 eyes and 16 notes and the article is agreed to the next day definition please a set of subtle phones beepers at a press conference standing next to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu Clinton delivered opening remarks focused entirely on peace between Israel and the Palestinians to be a partner in the pursuit of a lasting comprehensive peace the 1st question went to an Israeli journalist who turned straight to impeachment Mr President what if you we are action to the decision of said Judiciary Committee of the House yesterday do you intend to resign as did President Nixon Clinton said it was expected preordained and now it is up to the members of the House of Representatives to vote their conscience on the Constitution and the law which I believe are clear and I have no intention of resigning it's never crossed my mind then it was time for an American journalist who also asked about impeachment when the next Israeli question was about impeachment again Netanyahu jumped in I think the president has come here on a very clear voice of peace and I believe that it would. Be appropriate also that it's going to questions of the peace process I would like to know the answers to and so it went there was no escape impeachment hung over everything on the flight home Lockhart says the president and his top foreign policy advisers were weighing a military strike on Iraq there was this striking dichotomy on the plane where in the front there was a group of people including the president on a secure teleconference trying to figure out you know when and if to watch this this attack on Iraq and in the back we were doing our club vote count of you know how many people are coming out against us much like Clinton President try. Entire time in office has been clouded by investigations which means that even as impeachment looms over his trip to London it won't be Trump's 1st foreign trip overshadowed by bad headlines back home it's something all modern presidents had to deal with to varying degrees Ari Fleischer was President George w. Bush's 1st press secretary comes with the territory some of those issues spike a little higher it's a high spike these days one difference between Trump and his predecessors is President Trump regularly events on Twitter this is reflection of different styles as well as different political calculations about moving public opinion so there's no question Fleischer says that Trump will find a way to weigh in from London he has to do is job travel do the things presidents are supposed to do and he'll have every ability to fire back counter punch punch a counter punch again and my biggest fear would present a trump I've said it a 1000000 times sometimes he counterpunches so hard his follow through himself in the nose prompts brand his always included grievance and taking the fight to his opponents and that's just as true in London as it is at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue Tamara Keith n.p.r.

In the in the Bracks vote in 2016 a lot of people voted to actually push immigrants out they didn't want more immigrants coming in like this man he's the one indeed who one of the heroes it seems Poland wants to give him a medal for what he did and today London mayor city can he spoke at a vigil for the victims and here's what he had to say the best way to defeat this hatred is not by turning on one another 1st by focusing on the values that binds us to take from the heroism of all the reason that it's who ran towards danger risking their lives to help people they didn't even know but let's talk about those people over the weekend Frank police did identify the victims what do we know about them well any stories like this is tragic but this especially so because they were very young and promising to Cambridge University graduates in their twenty's who were studying criminology Saskia Jones she volunteered at this event on Friday and a man named Jack Merritt the other victim was helping to coordinate the event both described as very thoughtful compassionate and having bright futures and the headline in the Cambridge News was quote they try to make the world a better place Britain's holding national elections in 10 days has this attack become part of the campaigning inevitably in this environment and it quickly became a political football one car he got out on early release because of this terror conviction we were I was mentioning So Prime Minister Barak's Johnson he says that Khan was released under policies under the rival government the opposition Labor Party which he's battling against to stay in the prime minister's office and here is what Johnson said he's going to get much tougher on crime and here's what he said on Sky News I have long said that this system simply isn't working it does not make sense for us as a society to put it you putting terrorist people who are convicted of terrorist offenses of serious offenses out on early release family members the victims that they should not be politicized N.P.R.'s Frank Langfitt in London Frank thanks so much You're very welcome nohow.

News I'm David Greene and I'm Noel King and I'm Steve Inskeep here's a warning that should be on some of the items on your holiday shopping list privacy not included that's the point of a shopping guide put out by the Mozilla Foundation which is an Internet focused nonprofit their guide focuses on products like doorbells that double the security cameras or robots or even automatic pet feeders Ashley Boyd is vice president of advocacy and engagement for the Mozilla Foundation and is on the line from San Francisco welcome the program thanks so much for having me Steve Ok so you develop something called the creep o. Meter am I saying that correctly what is it that's perfect it's a way for people who can connect with the reviews and tell us what they think about what we've said about the products and rate whether or not they find them creepy or not and one really actually heartening trend we saw this year as the basic security of these connected devices is improving last year only about half of the products met our minimum security guidelines and this year it's up to about 75 percent where do smart speakers rank on the creeper meter it falls in the mid range of the Create the meter so far but there is growing concern about whether or not these devices are always on and one feature that we've noticed particularly in the Amazon products is that they don't actually provide information about how long they store your data or whether your data can be deleted we should drill down on this because lots of people are hearing this very interview on a smart speaker and it's by design a surveillance device right it's built to listen to me that's right and yet we've grown used to the fact that it is simply there you hear people making remarks about their smart speaker listening to them but they have one anyway that's right and I think that you know this shows how little reliable information there is for consumers that is at their level right you know some of this information is provided by the companies. But there's still not a bunch of information that people can really follow along easily and that's really the source of our inspiration for creating privacy not included in the 1st place has the act of creating this guide influenced your own choices about what to buy for yourself or other people absolutely I myself don't have a smart speaker and I really think a lot about whether or not the benefits of these products outweigh their potential risks and even a company like Roku which I do have a Roku product in my house and actually is making more now as an advertiser then as as a hardware provider so that really caught my attention and made me think twice about the Roku product this is a television viewing system that's right but why does it matter that they're making more money from advertising than from me what they do is they actually have a system that you can opt out of but it's a little difficult to find so if you just in the set up accept everything you actually have agreed to have them monitor your viewing options and they sell this to advertisers so that an advertiser can know if you've seen an ad they also can know and understand what kind of shows you enjoy and serve ads that they think will be attractive to you it sounds like after you bought it you found out that it was surveilling you a little more than maybe you realized what are you going to do now so I have the information about how to turn this off and I'm going to utilize that but the concern that we have that muscle is just how much work this puts on individuals if people want you know enhanced advertising based on their viewing sure I'm happy to opt into that but we want to put less of a burden on individuals and more responsibilities on the companies nationally Boyd is vice president at Mozilla thanks so much thank you and we should mention here that Amazon and other companies that make products featured on Mozilla's privacy not included guide our sponsors of n.p.r.

From Democrats on the campaign trail there's talk of what some call a student loan Jubilee what if student debt which did a colossal one and a half trillion dollars in the summer to fall quarter were wiped off the books clean slate 11 percent of that debt was 3 months or more delinquent MARKETPLACE's senior economics contributor Chris Farrel has been looking at this morning Chris good morning David do you have Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders essentially wanting to eliminate student loan debt other candidates have more incremental approaches but you know just wiping away all that debt is inherently a fair or unfair process depending on who holds the debt Well David you're absolutely right and it's largely going to benefit people who went to Ivy League colleges and you know small private Independent Colleges So that's a good debate let's have that debate but what I don't want to get lost in that debate is that we need to reform the student loan system dramatically overhaul it what you're saying is let's say all the debt was wiped out under a new administration and then what we just have the present system underneath it and the debt would wreck back up that is absolutely right and we're education experts and higher education experts seem to be coalescing is around this idea of a universal income based repayment scheme it's like what they have in Australia or in Britain and the projected are of the. Idea is Nobel laureate Milton Friedman 1955 article saying Look for undergraduates for students in higher education you don't want them to pay for their education through loans yes the return on education is high but there's a big variation some people get a low job at a low paying job some people get high paying jobs and so we called for more of a equity based repayment system that have to use that word equity is a word that means so many things and nothing at the same time but you're talking about if you're earning a lot of income when you finally graduate you'll pay back more that's right so here's the basic idea it's universal The more you earn the more you pay the less you are on the less you pay student loans in other words resemble equity not debt and under this system you can't a fault on your student loans and key is this automatic collection of these income based payments through the tax system so be automatically deducted from your paycheck if you're self employed you would just pay for it when you file your quarterly statement but something that doesn't seem to be changing as the cost of higher ed tuition just keeps going up and up well you're absolutely right but it changes the circumstances of the graduates they can take that job for love not money marketplaces senior economics contributor Chris Farrell thank you thanks a lot and 2 groups of Catholic nuns are attacking rhetorically the Securities and Exchange Commission for its plans to make it harder for small groups of shareholders to submit reform proposals to corporate annual meetings they are selling content of the Sacred Heart in Toledo and the Dominican Sisters of peace based in Columbus have written the s.e.c.

You Mr President yes indeed is there anything he doesn't know about you go to the Social Media Summit you want to question he wants to talk to about your radio show that's my old boss stalled Trump with his finger on the pulse whatever it is it may be China and Hong Kong crisis in Iraq the southern border the stock market. Today I'm so jealous la. Trump was in studio and she reminded us we could be in d.c. Today. Yes indeed. Well there's a visit to the White House from that special forces canine we having things to do whenever I'm in the Big Apple. I have a national radio show but I just want to sit down with good friends and talk to one of the best one of the few truly strategic. And there are many is my good friend David Goldman follow him now David. The famous infamous Spangler columns at the Asia Times what do you prefer David famous infamous notorious. Well look we just had a law which we just had lunch and I said hey can you come to the studio and gracious that you actually said you'd be delighted to so I'm very excited to have you here we're going to talk about all the big issues that I know you have an opinion on. In the Middle East. Iran is really feeling that they David Well the Iranian regime is falling apart they've had perhaps 200 deaths in demonstrations one than a 1000 arrests of people simply don't have enough to eat water is disappearing entire villages are being evacuated because the corruption of the Canadian government has destroyed the water system it's an ecological economic and social disaster and the shut down the Internet absolutely Now the question is given the fact that the Revolutionary Guard Corps is a tight the organized group of fanatics who control the money the or revenues there is do they really care how many people demonstrate or how many people they have to machine gun right on the streets there is some theory. Senior. Lucrative strategist in Israel who think Israel is going to have to launch a unilateral strike against Iran's nuclear capabilities very soon because in response to America's withdrawal from the so-called Iran to the. Multi $100000000.00 Obama cash payoff to the mullahs Iranians are now refining your Aenima guess and the question is how far are they from a bomb if they get a bomb then the life is going to be pretty miserable for everybody can explain this to me because we left as one of the proudest moments of my time in the White House when I managed with Stephen to argue listen for solution for all withdrawal from the j.c. P.r. Way in Iran deal that we can see from Obama but all the other nations are still in the oh the the Iran do so so what was Iran in breach one of the Brits and the French and the Germans doing that from the standpoint of international law I couldn't give you a considered from the standpoint of America 1st Iran is that extremely dangerous factor we had hoped that economic pressure sanctions and isolation would be sufficient to persuade the mullahs to come to terms with a better deal which is what the president has called yes president has never wanted United States to risk its servicemen in that attack on Iraq that's never to my understand of the servant as a deck that he wants Iran to do what we want which is to agree not simply to stop refining Iranian but not to develop the means of conveying nuclear weapons for example intercontinental ballistic missiles which threaten not on their allies but eventually could threaten us so that's that what's the strategy it certainly weakened the regime but we do not yet know whether economic pressure and sanctions and international isolation will be sufficient. As the Israelis will tell you and as I heard him pastor at David Friedman emphasize in a speech last week that's what the United States has allies for right allies are there to do the dirty work that you don't want to do and shed blood we don't want to shut it we have only one ally in the Middle East willing to do that and very few allies indeed in the world apart from Israel and the United Kingdom there are very few people have actually shed blood with us for. Israel is willing to take that risk and if necessary if the intel demonstrates that to take out Iran's nuclear capability now. These are truly historic events happening on the streets because it's not just to run it's across the nation when you have statues of Khamenei when you have very symbolic things being burned being attacked across the country we really haven't seen this even during the green events under their balmy isn't definitely not since $979.00 when I get asked in today somebody at the event we went to together to me so what's going on in Iran. The answer that always pops to mind is that allegedly apocryphal state into that Stalin was said to have responded to when he said you know they asked about the power of the pope in the papacy and he said the pope only tank divisions does he have is there any hope for some reason of bull regime change occurring from the inside without key elements of the g.c.c. Or the regime splintering off there's hope but it's very difficult to make an estimate in Russia of course after Strategic Defense Initiative half to the rough and humiliation of the Baker Valley turkey shoot after the American great economic boom under Reagan the Russian military realized they could not keep up with America's economic growth and military buildup that it performs and it was the military who forced perestroika and glasnost and eventually that led to the collapse of communism whether there exist a similar professional military in Iran separate from the Revolutionary Guard Corps with the power to isolate this group of fanatics is hard to tell the kind of fanatics who are dealing with in Russia for generations after the revolution. Was it dissipated Marlise drunken bunch of people without a lot of motivation Unfortunately the mullahs in Iran still appear to have a core of fanatics right who may have to be slapped down I don't know the answer the point is we need to be prepared for every contingency So right now if you're a betting man you understand strategy or understand economics you understand Joe politics if things continue the way they've been trending recently what should we expect more violence from the regime just like a crack cranking down if we look at the energy sector in Iran isn't there a breaking point. A future juncture if there is what does that bring the question is what will amount will they attack Saudi Arabia will they try to destroy the will routes out of the Persian Gulf where they attack Israel and if they get aggressive that way then we need a kinetic solution sadly and Israel will always do what is necessary for Israel if not the Israelis seem quite confident they can handle Iran if they are called upon to do it we are talking to none other than David p.

Making sense out of today's news here is Dr Sebastian Gorka. With David Goldman made sure I am at 970 The Also in New York practicing in Mike Gallagher studio and I have a request for you in this less exciting to do. Everything week so many of you have already joined us in our prison fellowship Angel Tree campaign. 2.7000000 children in America have a parent behind us 2700000 of those children are 3 times more likely than any other child to become involved in the justice system I'd like you to help me break that cycle how do we do that. I'm definitely in New York and definitely in your book we have some construction work on Wall Street behind me so this is an axle right as I literally outside my window but I will Percivale let's hit listen to Kristen from Prison Fellowship right now though to give the child an opportunity to remove that label and be able to be exploited and not suffer for the crime that their parents aren't present for we actually feel like they're the silent victims of crime because their label and they don't get the help that they're needed that what we're doing is we're giving them that opportunity to be acquitted and to look after her quite well why shouldn't shy old have to pay for the crimes of their parents let's look beyond that label of the vast suffering go to my website said Go could dot com That's as a b g k a said dot com click on the Prison Fellowship Angel Tree banner $22.00 sends a Christmas gift a message all over the gospel and a message from that child's parent behind bars to that child on Christmas and if you donate 110 dollars it's fine heave children you are helping remember what it says in the Bible the children the widows those behind us with this missionary work you will be helping 2 of those groups go to said the girl could dot com as the b.g. Dot com subgoal could dot com and click the angel tree banner. I thank you Prison Fellowship thanks you and I know those children will thank you too we are back in studio with David Goldman David p. Goldman he of the Spangler column in the Asia Times my friend we must discuss Asia we must discuss the events on the streets of Hong Kong and what is what is the off ramp to this crisis again we have that apocryphal mention of Stalin's how many Tang divisions does the Pope have those students on the streets maybe waving the Stars and Stripes I mean waving the British Union Jack but they have no tank divisions what is going to be the end result of this resistance will they be crushed like 956 in the streets of Budapest. One alternative certainly is for the Chinese to send the army in and kill everybody tenements where I think that's highly unlikely 1st of all the Chinese it's kind of probably don't like I'm saying it's setting interference but the Chinese certainly think it can one square massacre was a terrible mistake. It hurt them enormously It caused a whole generation of the best and brightest will be shot so they don't want to do that they would do it extremists but I don't like someone out of the question that out nothing is out of the question I think it's likely I think that what the Chinese will do is 1st of all make concessions on the extradition laws and other publications which triggered the protests in the 1st place and then they will move towards a single poor style model of massive support for public housing to buying the population off Absolutely I mean if you are Hong Kong stupid given the cost of an apartment it takes you'll be in your forty's or fifty's before you start a family because the rails there is just so astronomically expensive on. And that's because Hong Kong has been the recipient of all that dirty money coming out of China in suitcases you see luxury Goldens there's no lights on it simply didn't away for just looks a little ring money into right in the states crooks in China have wanted it into real estate in Hong Kong and that's made life affordable for the Hong Kong Chinese Now remember Hong Kong has 7000000 people it's a British city that happens to have an ethnic Chinese population the connection between Hong Kong and mainland is quite that there has not been any reverberation of the protests Hong Kong is enormously useful as the Chinese because it's got a convertible currency to some British law it's like the airlock between the closed Chinese system of the open western system only Baba for example is planning to raise and a gormless i.p.o. And Hong Kong that's very handy for the Chinese there are you know if the Chinese of course just shut it down that part of China get rid of all but it would lose the it that so patiently they've been waiting out the demonstrations the fact that the . Got a 70 percent voter turnout on Sunday for elections which of course support of the macros of turnout pro-democracy party the important thing is that there were no violent demonstrations during that and the hardcore of demonstrators who've inflicted hundreds of billions of dollars of property damage out a couple of deaths appears to be dwindling so I think the Chinese will wait it out the Chinese do want a trade deal with the United States they don't want to blow up in Hong Kong to interfere with that so I think the Chinese policy will be bottom out wait make concessions but keep the on grip on the island remotely that's most likely. I always wore them those who are lectured in the intelligence community and elsewhere where before I joined the White House in one of the graves since you can . It is mirror image of. Our cultural expectations of the culture but surely David those young men and women. Risking their lives on the streets of Hong Kong. Can they just be bought off with shiny apartments provided by the government and fighting for freedom. Don all of them but I think very large number of them can and Chinese will attempt to do so the question is what is free to try to China will not get independence from Hong Kong the Chinese will permit it so freedom basically means one country 2 systems of the result of the original deal precisely and the Chinese will back off from extradition laws or other forms of heavy handed interference Hong Kong after all is a place where you can publish newspapers announcing Beijing every day you write about but after cream shop might be burned down as we saw the Times last week they tried when when the thugs were sent in there with the batons that were issued to the police and they try to said fine to the Epoch Times print shop in Hong Kong because they were criticising the mainland Communist Party as for the Chinese are going to have to make it safe and as to why they want to control Hong Kong in return for concessions so they want to keep the pot continuously boiling and I think it's not in their interest to keep the pot continuously really isn't it isn't that part of what we can leverage enough communications with China. Playing on that vulnerability isn't don't you use their worst fears against them when you're negotiating with Beijing is in the lead don't trump should do well Donald Trump already has made clear to them that were they to do something really violent and discussed in Hong Kong that would prejudice trade negotiations and I think that has affected them so I think the president has played this very nicely kept the right balance kept the pressure on without doing anything to blow the thing off my question the president still remains does she's in playing really understand her don't trump is my money's on the fact that he doesn't I'm Sebastian willfulness strategist of the president also on the wall for America's soul this is America 1st on the Salem Radio Network broadcasting from the big i Pod and the Mike Gallagher studio this star like the ring.

For more than a year the whole of her mom was captivated by the hunt for a runaway Golden Retriever breed catching Murphy the latest book from the Associated Press available now exclusively at Amazon dot com. 6 point one New York I am in love and nice. To you. He said the president is using mind control but how that provable so we can start with the pathological lying which is characteristic of destructive cult leaders saying things in a very confident way that have nothing to do with facts or truth all less then the blaming others and never taking responsibility for his own the failures and faults it is frightening the you're a cult expert say that you see all these signs right now today in American politics and anyone like that says the press is the enemy of the people that's what Hubbard would say that's what loon said that's what La Rouche said why because they demagogues So finally the 1st step if you say this is a cult what's the 1st half of the program. That is not on the. Concluding of the major journalist he's the cool you there he is Brian Stelter of c.n.n. Talking to a cult expert because Steve Tustin was in the Moonies in the 1970 s. And he said if you believe in the whole truth then you don't believe to your memory . About mind control you need to us my friend David p. Goldman. Can someone explain to me I was just Brian but perhaps this is a person who understands economics and job politics the dental being up 53 percent since the election the Nasdaq up 66 percent in the s. And p. By 46 percent that's pretty impressive mind control isn't it. It might not actually be the case you might only be seeing those numbers before on trucks the matrix absolutely Donald Trump says. It made us see things that aren't there this is stunning We have we have discussed it discussed time let's talk about what is going on in Washington d.c. a Bad week for the Democrats when you see the. Impeachment numbers being underwater according to reliable polling on independence. The only reason it's got worse for them is the testimony do you expect that to be a vote before Christmas is called go on forever counting. I've got no idea plus he is going to do with a lousy hand he's dealt to herself Delta herself exactly precisely precisely to your point the Marquette University poll numbers comps and now shows Trump beating every single one of the Democratic candidates in the state which is which means basically he's going to win the election because of the carries the upper Midwest as it is last time he wins the country 2020 is a shoo in so even though we have almost a year left That's right so without some external large issues such as a war economic crisis you're confident that this is a real like to be president short of an economic crisis I think the president's re-elected Lie think the public is completely disgusted with the impeachment charade they don't know what a quid pro quo is they don't care if the United States president pushes around some minor foreign potentate on the 3rd best corrupt country in the world well they don't even know whether it's the 3rd of the 5th most corrupt country in the world they just know it's a place they don't not plan to visit the next vacation and they don't really care about all the Democratic hypocritic bloviate about abuse of power really doesn't bother them that all the president sometimes has to push people around that's what they elected him to do right and it's simply not an issue for them I think that Alan Dershowitz and many other add to the car thing that had legal or sorts of made the point that yes presidents of buse power every once in shorts Washington has perhaps it was a bit off the red you know off the way it did to. Put the Ukrainian president on the spot but this is just ridiculous to suggest this rises to the high crimes and misdemeanors that the Founders considered necessary for an impeachment while I wonder. Public reason one of the people we broke bread with today I'm talking to David p. Goldman he is the Spangler columnist for the Asia Times and p.j. Media one of the perp people today made a fabulous point he said if the president of United States is talking to the head of state of one of the most corrupt nations in the world and doesn't call for there to be effective anti corruption cooperation he should be impeached but not the opposite which tells you just how incredibly an upside down world we live in and I'm Sebastian go this is America 1st on the Salem Radio Network broadcasting from a friend Mike Gallagher studio it is of course am age 17 in New York but wherever I am it is always a really Fact dot com studio really fact pain relief that is natural pain relief that has no negative side effects and most important of all pain relief that works how do I know that I don't need a script talking points when the father and son team behind this incredible product came to me 11 months ago they said You've got to try this and I said the only way I'm going to do something is if it's real and if it works I have a low back pain issues that plagued me for 9 yes I took really factor and 2 weeks later I was pain free and I am still pain free that is the experience of tens of thousands of Americans right now who are daily taking on the fact should be one of the success stories currently Thanks dot com see the testimonies from Arkansas across the country getting their lives back liberated from every day some pains that 3 weeks out of packed for just 1995 that is less than a dollar a day take it in the morning and evening that's for little capsules and I guarantee you 3 weeks you will know it really fact works for you the way it works so make sure. $19.95 is worth it to find out if you can be the next really fact a success story Carrie thanks dot com right now really factor dot com I'm Sebastian from the strategist of the present This is America 1st on the Salem Radio Network in the am age 70 of the ons to studios in New York back with the David Cole steam Mike as the house going along needs a ton of work the pipes are leaking needs a new roof the AC just broke I just don't have time to do it all myself you know anyone just ask home advice they match you with the best local pros for any home project cool yeah you can read reviews and who point it's online What's it cost actually Home Advisor is always free to use nice I'll check it out go to Home Advisor dot com or down on the free app. There is a battle right here in America the radical left is trying to silence anyone who disagrees with what to shut you up and then as Prager there's no more important issue facing America today if we can't speak freely we can be heard but one film is fighting back no safe spaces every American should see this see no safe spaces only in thieves p.g. 13 spaces dot com for tickets.

Because of that catchphrase resistance is useless very similar to another group of. Saif. Why I bring these up because I love science fiction I like. That. David Goldman there is a real Vogue on board threat now that who is it and it's not even in outer space time here on the mothership It's called wall one way Chinese China's national champion telecommunications smartphone artificial intelligence computation chip design and take over your minding your economy this isn't just the Motorola range of them no it's in dish and it's to be at light but Facebook is for social media and Google is for internet search but for every industry in the world on an on a new frequency if you will what. Is owned by one Chinese company and old data can be accessed through their platforms every Sparc phone in the world is supposed to become a data collector for Watley the data goes up and because the vest system is 5 g. They control the national brought that they can they give you the broadband which can get you know 0 Latency a 1000 times faster than anything you have now which means for example your vital signs can be continuously uploaded from your smartphone into the cloud your genes can be sequenced by Chinese machines your health records can be cross critic and still analysis so pale I want people understand that this is science fiction no this isn't some who is this guy who was the guy this isn't some. No conspiracy theory this is happening right now if you go to those ancestry websites the 1st ancestry service was of course Chinese it was run out of China so your code information is going to the the Communist Party of the of China if you are using platforms made by a while way they can access your information if you've got a few. If you're using one of those fitness monitoring services and it's got the wrong chip in it guess what where your data is going why do they collect all this data David what is the purpose of all this huge amounts of data 1st of all that they may be stealing it but there are objective is to get you to give it to voluntarily because they'll give you back all kinds of useful information but artificial intelligence it's one of doubt designing you know an artificial girlfriend or something that's science fiction concepts it's about having all the data in the world and be cable to being able to crunch it mine met mine the data the chief technology officer was like who you interviewed recent guests I'm writing a book I interviewed for the book said we don't want a monopoly we just want to own all the control points in the world economy Oh and what are the control points it's the porting and storage of data if you've got the data everything goes through her service so if you have everyone's medical information if you're a pharmaceutical company medical research company you go to that and rent space but that's good to do your research but it's the same for manufacturing same so so the for fun let's hold is that as they own the cloud they own the massive data and like Google that wiped out all its competitors they want to be sufficiently ahead of all possible competition so they're the only one left the network effect makes them an op Lee but this is like Google is a monopoly here but this isn't about a company because while using the company I mean you know the idea that there are independent mega corporations in China or is a fantasy this is the Chinese state David while boy is the imperial expression of the Chinese empire turned outward with 50000 foreign engineers doing most of their basic research founded by people I officer Oh absolutely sort of People's Liberation Army Yes that's right simple scored. But the objective is to assimilate the talent information and capabilities of the West and the competition high their talent and make themselves the dominant information firm in the world becoming the controlling factor of every industry in the world if someone dishes that Alan leaders have not bothered to look at the wall way website called a wobbly dot com and listen to the speeches after September Shanghai conduct conference and they will spell it out for you I'm not making it up I'm simply reporting just about let me just spell it for you for if you're not familiar it's h u a w. Y a h u a w you can read this it's not a secret this information is out there and they have a very simple image or objective it's imperialism but it's imperialism for the 22nd century it's information Dobbin it's real time intelligence dominance it's anything you can imagine that provides them an edge because their national objective the strategic intent is a very simple one that there is one nation that is preeminent and everybody else is a vassal or an enemy to Bisbee destroy track you're working for the Chinese company store. Right you're working for them or you will be crushed and absolved like the bull you will be absolved.
