and it reminded me actually a lot of the birth or conspiracy movement under brock obama went. donald trump tried to convince people that brock obama wasn't actually american, was not actually a legitimate president. and obama then had a lot of problems how to deal with that. and he ended up directly confronting that and was criticized for legitimizing this falsehood by directing it. but by not directly directly approaching it, it less that lie faster is a really difficult thing that i think people, politicians, people, the media researchers, academics are struggling with how to actually break down these falsehoods and commends any body of something approaching reality. i think those are biden was trying to, to get to in some way today as a cohen's from the w's washington bureau chief, a innocent poll, who was also watching that. so a president biden, not seeking to change mines with this speech, not seeking to persuade the other side, but standing up for what he believes is right. this is not a, a fight that he chose, but a fight that he's going to take on on the less. well, phil, i

his name was brock obama. almost 10 years ago, obama appointed a special envoy, cliff sloan to shut down the detention. can't know, he quit the job. 18 months in i just spoke to him. i want you to take a listen to what he had to say to me. now some of them can't go to their country of origin because of security concerns, for example, in yemen, or because of human rights concerns that they might be abused, and then they need to be resettled in other countries. and there's no reason those 27 can't be transferred right away. i would like to see all of them transferred in the 1st 6 months of this year, but it's 20th anniversary. it is shameful. definitely. what do you say the 1st 6 months of this year of transfer the moment? is that wishful thinking? no, it absolutely could happen. and we just need to see the political. well, we just need to see president obama decide to take the reins and do it. i think president obama tried and made a lot of progress. he transferred hundreds of people out of guantanamo, but he d

but in case they are guantanamo over for presidents now, starting with george bush and then brock obama and then donald trump. and now joe biden. well, over 750 people have been transferred to other countries. the detainees came from something like 30 different countries who it all on to afghanistan. and i can tell you that, you know, despite, although i think some of the people wanted to really were entirely innocent when you hear their lawyers say, you know that, that they were all on the wrong place at the wrong time. and i don't think all of those people were in the wrong place at the wrong time. you know, some of them were in fact, up to no good. they could not be charged under us criminal laws because us criminal laws at the time and 2001 did not apply to the conduct of non us national in afghanistan. it wasn't a crime for you many or a saudi to simply train and training camp and i can't stand. so when you hear their lawyers are advocates say, well, they've been charged with nothing. they've been charged with no crime. you know, the assumption is, well therefore they've done nothi

obama wanted to do so? wanted it done if the congress in 2011 pass laws that are still on the books that prohibit the transfer of one time of detainees to the united states. so there is a congressional law that is been supported by both republicans and democrats saying detainees can't be moved into the united states. now. i think that is a mistake. when i was still in the bush administration, i supported transferring as many people out of one, find them out to their home countries. so we wouldn't have to be responsible for them. and the remainder who we that we wanted to prosecute, or we felt were too dangerous to transfer, right? united states. and i think those who argue that it's not safe to transfer the united into the united states is that is just hogwash. you know, we have maximum security presence, either a military presence or civilian prisons. and i think if we were to transfer the remaining number of these detainees at guantanamo to either a military facility or, or a civilian facility, they are n

obama wanted to shut down guantanamo, but he didn't succeed. how likely is it that present, joe biden will succeed in shutting down during his presidency? i think they are for doing so. it's 20 years now and the opening a symbol of injustice. there, there are many, many reasons from all different angles. not only human right angles, a human turn, one also from taxpayer angle, basically. so the listener ration needs to do everything to shut it down to close that which is not easy in a u. s. system. but of course, if you have wants to they, they have all the means and ways to, to close and shut it down. so i think there's no simply not tentative, not doing so. this is sharla. thank you very much for talking with us. that was andrea sheila, from the european council unconstitutional and human rights in berlin. sketch up on some other stories making headlines. dame a fire in a slum district near the northern chile and city of k has destroyed more than 100 homes fire cruise struggled to bring the blaze under control because there were no hydrants cl

obama such a great job creator as ministration was. but in truth, people knew they saw through it because they could feel those jobs weren't in a quality whatever it may have been. the, it was in the, it didn't match with their real world experience. like you said, peter, believe my lying eyes. right? so in the yeah, if it hurt somebody personally, then i really do think it as a major impact and i don't think the either party really sees that right now. senator tom tell us was asked about their chances of, of taking back the senate. he didn't mention inflation once, so it really does go go to show you what he thinks is driving this backlash against democrats. it really isn't reality either. so it's both parties. i'm really glad that you said both parties. if i really just don't want to be a drama getting one party and the other part where is the empathy here? i mean, you know, i think what happened to i feel your pain. i mean, you can have a present was that, i mean at least it's a narrative. bill clinton was, i think, an awful print.

obama then doubled it again, raising the national debt to nearly 20 trillion dollars. now in order to fully understand how the national that impacts the country, we have to look at where it stands compared to our gross domestic product. now last year, spending in response to the pandemic brought the debt to g d p ratio to 105 percent marking its highest points in world war 2. but if we go back to the 1990 s, we'll find that the ratio stood under 50 percent even dropping down to 30 percent under the clinton administration. the debt to g d p ratio was up to nearly 45 percent. by the time george w bush left office, and by the time obama left off, as it had skyrocketed nearly 75 percent as the continued increase in defense spending combined with the government's response to the great recession. so who owns all of this debt? the 2 largest and these are actually right here in the united states, the social security trust fund, and the federal reserve that's public. that's the debt of the people. now beyond that, china and japan both owed more than one trillion dollars in us t

he worked at the state department as public affairs chief under brock obama. now he must be totally opposed to any dis, information or distortions in media. right. well, job of the state diploma was what people used to joke as the chief propagandist. i'm not against propaganda, every country does it, and they have to do it to their own population. and i don't necessarily think it's that's awful. some conservatives in america feel threatened by the teachers unions embracing news guard. the left is found a dangerous and equally disingenuous. new way to indoctrinate our children without their parents knowing this is as bad as c r t. in fact is was unlike c r t, the left is not going to give it a name this time. this is purposely designed to go under the radar of public scrutiny in america, we're always told about those evil totalitarian countries where the government brain washes children and tells them not to question authority. and here in america were said to be great because we teach our children to have free and open minds and think for themselves. and now w

obama working on ukraine . and he says that moscow security demands unmasking other intentions. i think no one is very optimistic that the diplomatic track will be picked up by russia. because i don't ultimately think that russia's issues are with nato military exercises, or with the posture of nato. i think the us has done a very smart thing to say, like, what russia, if your concerns are really are the security or security issues such as are military exercises or various arm sales that we have done in our, in arms transfers to ukraine. we can talk about that is we have a long history of talking about that with the russians and the soviet since the cold war period. ready of trying to create strategic stability. but i think at the heart of this, i think is about russia wanting to control ukraine in what the us is not going to do is to sort of see, to ridiculous demand, such as ensuring that, that ukraine will never be part of nato. frankly, russia already have sort of a detail about that because russia has occu

obama then doubled it again, raising the national debt to nearly 20 trillion dollars. now, in order to fully understand how the national that impacts the country, we have to look at where it stands compared to our gross domestic product. now, last year, spending and response to the pandemic brought the debt to g d p ratio to 105 percent marking its highest points as world war 2. but if we go back to the 1900 ninety's, we'll find that the ratio stood under 50 percent even dropping down to 30 percent under the clinton administration. the debt to g d p ratio was up to nearly 45 percent by the time george w bush left office. and by the time obama left off, as it had skyrocketed to nearly 75 percent as the continued increase in defense spending combined with the government's response to the great recession. so who owns all of this debt, the 2 largest? and these are actually right here in the united states, the social security trust fund, and the federal reserve that's public, that's the debt of the people. now beyond that, china and japan both owed more than one trillion do

obama such a great job creator as ministration was. but in truth, people knew they saw through it because they could feel those jobs weren't in a quality whatever it may have been. the, it was in the, it didn't match with their real world experience. like you said, peer believe my lying eyes, right? so in the year it hurt somebody personally, then i really do think it as a major impact, and i don't think the either party really sees that right now. senator tom tell us was asked about their chances of, of taking back the senate. he didn't mention inflation once, so it really does go go to show you what he thinks is driving this backlash against democrats. it really isn't reality either. so it's both parties. i'm really glad you said both parties. if i really don't want to beat the drama, get one party and the other part where is the empathy here? i mean, you know, i think what are what happened to i feel your pain. i mean, you can have a present was that, i mean at least it's a narrative. who clinton was. i think an awful press. ok. peo

you know, we constantly heard people cite the, the headline, jobs or port numbers and why, you know, brock obama, such a great job creator is ministration was, but in truth, people knew they saw through it because they could feel those jobs weren't in a quality whatever it may have been the, it was, it didn't, it didn't match with their real world experience. like you said, peer believe my lying eyes. right. so in the yeah, it hurt somebody personally. then i really do think it as a major impact. and i don't think the either party really sees that right now. senator tom tell us was asked about their chances of, of taking back the senate. he didn't mention inflation once, so it really does go go to show you what he thinks is driving this backlash against democrats. it really isn't reality either. so it's both parties. i'm really glad you said both parties. if i really don't want to be a drama getting one party and the other part where is the empathy here? i mean, you know, i think what happened to i feel your pain. i mean, you can have a present was that, i mean at least it's a narrative. w

i mean, i think what happened in to take it back to the iraq syria theater is that after brock obama withdrew american forces from iraq in 2011. because really what could go wrong everything? everything was taken care of best when isis arose in western iraq and, and eastern syria. and we had to go back in to counter this new threat or more virulent form of al qaeda. so i hardly think that it was in reaction to our withdrawal that we saw isis arise. i think it was the spread of this terrorist mentality which, which was of course, the thing to read. of course, one can say that then it's still a descendant of u. s. u k policy because of the invasion of iraq. i mean, either, either way but them, i, well, maybe it all goes back to british imperialism in 1900. everything does. and uh huh . no, this is more recent. oversee the 2001 war i should. i mean, before we leave afghanistan, i should just quickly say, you have warned that a taliban victory in gobble gives them potential access to 150 nuclear weapons. what do you mean that was miscoded from a, from an earlier interview. what i have sa

obama. they love this city on a hill speech. lashaun winthrop right us, you know, on the boat off shore. he says, we shall be as a city upon a hill. well, no one ever mentioned what he says after that in the speech. it basically says that we're a new israel and that with the strength, i'm paraphrasing with the strength of god behind us. we should be able to smoke 10 of our enemies for each man. this is a subtler colonial enterprise to not necessarily civilize the heathen, but probably to exterminate and the language of creating they wanted to create a christian fate in a new land. i mean, this is, this is not very different language. i mean it's, i'm being purposely provocative and there are differences. but i think if we don't look at the parallels, we're not looking at ourselves. and if we don't look at ourselves, we're never really going to be able to make the progress to this, you know, you know, aspirational republic of ours. no one to the us had such a great time finding. what would be

s. assault against press freedom. brock obama was brutal against whistleblowers using the espionage act more times than any other president shut down. whistleblowers who spoke to the press but it did. it has, i think, ripped back to vail, any pretence said the united states and i would include the u. k. have any intention of protecting the press this legal precedent or if he's extradited to found guilty, will essentially mean that anyone who possesses classified material as i have when i worked for the new york times and publishes that material will have committed a criminal offense. many thanks for joining us today. chris hedges, host of the show on contact on our t. thank you. ah, no vaccine mandate has been causing havoc in canada. it's been hit by supply chain disruptions due to a shortage of truckers. that's also new jobs mandate took effect applying to drive as crossing to and from big us people flooded twitter with images of empty shelves all across canada. but one m p was quick to rebuff. claims such a supply crisis exists. thank. he's personally seen no evidence of any shortage

we had brock obama. we had donald trump and we haven't had joe biden. do you have a sense of how she read the trip? you know, the strengths and weaknesses of the american leader? she was dealing with. who does she like the most? well, 1st of all, she reveres america. she, she attributes to america per 2nd chance as a, as a free woman. and as a politician because she, she was a scientist only because she had chosen science as a safe place to park her or her brilliant mind. and she is really in and out of the reach of the police day. so she had and she had on our wall a picture of a bush, the elder and a reagan who were her cold war heroes. she had a personal, she had great personal report. this may surprise your, your viewers with george w bush and they click and, and that had real time results. they only overlap for 2 years, but, but they continued to be friends. she had a rocky relationship at the beginning with obama, although they are much more liked than she and george w bush. they're both cerebral and they're there. they're both people who don't re

obama because they did 2 basic things that always work economically. he deregulated and he lower taxes. that's what president trump did as immediately once joe biden came in, he started re regulating academy. he was taught regulating industries and he talked about raising taxes that immediately scares off investment from america. and as a result of that, the american economy is suffering. he needs to send a clear cut message to the world that america is opening back up for business pose, colvin. and then we're gonna move on, whatever this new normal is. and then america needs to get back to work. he low grade speech, appreciate time, i guess i figure rivera editorial director for the reactionary times. thank you so much. be staying with us here, northeast hill, to come documents relating to funds. as cobit vaccine will soon have to be ended over critics point the finger at americas food and drug administration on this for legibly authorizing the vaccine to quickly will explain all after the break. ah ah ah, is your media a reflection of reality in the
