"And the mask is now over. So that's good. Maybe we'll get a chance to hear less and less from him and the C D. C. This is the big news is that everybody gets a chance to go back to the regular life. But don't not so fast, everybody, everybody, not everybody and there's variance out there, so look out for that as well. On Ben. We were the second most restrictive state in the United States. I think last time I looked at it, and now we get a chance to possibly pick up and get some statistics on the excessive death on do other problems that were caused by this. It's always a trade off. Everything's a trade off. All right. Anything strike you interesting other than the fact that June 30th, which also happens to be my real birthday. That's the day it all that stuff goes back down. Well, so to me, the big question is what happens in the next six weeks. What happens before June 30th? That that is going to make everybody including the unvaccinated free to move about the country. That to me is he s so that's what this is a benchmark day. Really a significant day nationally for the CDC to come out and say, Okay, anybody who's vaccinated and that's two weeks every year of second vaccination does keep in mind. That that we are all if we're in that group are free to move about the country. So to speak, however, what it doesn't answer is what happens with all those people that are unvaccinated. Supposedly, that's where I think the reasoning of the CDC and then by following up Jay Inslee, the reasoning is. Oh, well, look it if all those vaccine and people can do it, all those people that are unvaccinated will feel like Oh, I better hurry up and get them. My hunch is and again the unvaccinated people. They're They're varying degrees of I've never getting it to. I don't care if it's not too much of a hassle, but my hunch is once it feels like whoa. All the restaurants are open and we can start traveling on airplanes and yet, which is not not with the CDC said. Yet about airplane traveler bus travel, that kind of stuff. But I'm wondering they're gonna say okay, well, the scare is over, so I don't if I don't get my vaccination, I don't think I'll bother. For some reason. CDC thinks this is going to spur on more people to get their vaccines. I feel like I might have the opposite effect. Interesting. Oh, so you what they're saying is that this is going toe motivate people. Yes, you go out and you don't think it will You think it's gonna be like a okay? I guess I feel passed on that one. I don't do anything. Yeah, the plague passed me by and be less motivated. I don't know. We'll have to see that. We'll have to wait for those data points to see what happens. Because he did. That's the other thing. One last thing I'll say about what James Lee said. Is that so? He picked June 30th for full capacity when he's his full capacity. I assume that means you don't have to prove you're vaccinated or not. You don't have to be back soon or not. It's anybody and everybody eyes gonna have, you know, carte blanche at stadiums and at restaurants, But he said, we could do it earlier hopeful capacity if we get to 70% First dose that seems like a high watermark, But still if you wait long enough, If you really wanna hold out, you'll have full confidence to go anywhere you want. Even if you're invested, I'm afraid. Come June 30th. How about you What you fight? You're right, Tom. That's exactly what's gonna happen. It's not going to motivate anybody to then go ahead and do this. You're letting everybody off the hook. But here's the thing. If so, your vaccinated and let's say a guy by the name of John is not vaccinate just picking. Okay, so your vaccination protects you correct. So John is what I say. John or Jim? John. John John is not vaccinated. Can John give you the virus? No. Okay. Ken John, give the virus to another vaccinated person. No. So John himself is not. He's not like to give it like this. Like carrying a gun. You've got a gun for defense. You're protected because you can use your gun to defend yourself. It's like a shield. John does not. He doesn't have one. So the only person John can infect is another John. Another guy that doesn't get a vaccine. So those two are operating in their own world. They're saying, You know what? I don't care if I give it I don't care if I get it, and he runs into another guy that says I don't care. I get it. I don't care if I give it so everybody that cares. And wants to get the vaccine then can go ahead and get the vaccine so they're basically taking care of their own third. They've built a fence around their house, so they're protecting their house. They're locking their doors and somebody else is leaving the door open. You know where any kind of analogy you want. So those people that have decided not to get the vaccine. They're exercising their free choice to possibly get the Yet give Cove it. Yes. The biggest problem is always without a vaccine. The biggest problems always that. Well, your choice, right? Your your freedom to swing your arm. And we always talk about this right? If they write at the end of my nose, you could swing your hands anywhere You want. Just don't hit me. So in this effect you've taken and you've moved your nose back. So the person who doesn't have the vaccine is swinging their arms all over the place. But they can't possibly hit you because your nose is now been protected by the vaccine. So, yes, this is what they have. You're gonna have 40% of Americans that will not get the vaccine. They just most like that high. Isn't that what it is? No, I don't. I think I think that's where we are. Well. 40% are include people that don't really care about getting it's not. I thought the percentage I saw was more in the twenties of their adamant they're not going to get it..

And so we really have to get moving, and we can't allow ourselves to fall victim. To some of these distractions that are now put out there by the forces of inaction. The those distractions like, you know, Jobs. Billions of dollars in fees that are raised for government programs that folks like Jay Inslee. Like to promote. As a way to help people. I mean, this is billions of dollars in people's livelihood on the line. Let's not let that get in the way folks activists, the fossil fuel interests that I talk about this. Look, you can't deny that climate change is happening now. It's not credible. So what they've done is they've turned to other tactics like convincing us that is just personal action or by dividing us and getting us fighting with each other about the details of climate policy, so that we get you know. My model here is details, shmee tails. I've always been guided by that principle. It's not the details that matter as we take on an incredibly complex issue of solving climate change, it's just having a belief that if you go away from something in a while, figure itself out. That's what I call for today. Get away from oil and gas, and it'll figure itself out. Don't represent a united front demanding action. We're so close to solving this problem.

All those marked market wrote. That would help yourself all of my loving well, why'd I play the James and Bobby Purify version Because sadly, James Purified, died last Friday in the city in which she was born and raised Pensacola 76 years old and said to be complications of covert 19. James, Of course, with James Lee Purify Bobby was his cousin, Robert Lee Dickie, but somehow purify and Vicky didn't make it. So it became James and Bobby Purify. Bobby left the duel and 71 went back home to Tallahassee had health problems but make part of while sadly, didn't I do about 10 years ago? I mean, sadly, that he died glad that he lasted obviously, But James was a solo act for a while until I'm your puppet co writer Dan Penn introduced to prevent more who became Bobby and they toward for years. But now what? James and Bobby purify both no longer with us, and that was that was said to read so 888876559 threes, 88 88 r o l l Y e. And we're talking about absolutely nothing of consequence. Which which, of course begs the tabloids, which I just realized, you know, I ever ever we got by them slime from the checkout line, so I can I can read. I can pay for them and you don't have to and hard to believe. But yes, we've had requests for some of these stories happy to do it, But I just realized what I could do with the old tabloids. And that's your Monday night. We have money, not trivia. We're always looking for for for for prizes. In addition, of course, to the to the ever cherished certificate you get and I think we'll said we have DVDs and things like that, doesn't it? But I think we'll start sending how tabloids I know that may make you never play trivia again. But just just in case we have we have several from which to choose. And all the stories in the world. So this begs begs you to call me right about now to stop this nonsense at 8888765593. 88 88 r o l l y e all right now Interesting. Lee. There's you probably heard about Long Cove it and of course, hopefully you never get it at all. And if you do, hopefully recover. And of course you'd think. Well, that's the end of your woes. But apparently for many people, it is very hard to get back to normal or what passes for normal. Or at some point you feel good right away, but it's some point down the road, you start to feel truly lousy and what's starting to happen for a lot of people? Those who still have jobs? Is they've used up all their sick dates, the number of sick days not adequate for what they're what they're facing, and I can. I can see that big time actually, because when you start to read about individuals who have In many cases come down with mild cases of covert. In fact, it seems to happen that way more often than not people who just don't no, no, no real big deal after they have quote unquote recovered. Start to have problems where literally 10 months later, they're still in trouble. And so you've got several people, and there's anecdotal evidence like an emergency room nurse who literally had to had to give up the job because the long term systems were keeping her out of the workplace. And she has to switch to a desk desk job, and they said nothing doing so. Ultimately, she went out on short term disability, but short term disability is just that short term. So you've got a number of people who are finding out that the side effects from having had covert are actually more dill it areas to them than than the disease itself. Now, on the one hand, the long haulers who certainly have haven't issue here have nothing to complain about compared to people who have lost their lives that have been on ventilators. But Nonetheless, I don't think there's anything going on that's taking into an account that individuals who have had covert may not be able to return to work and then for some employers, of course, who can't return to offering jobs. That that's a non issue, but for unfortunately, but for people who do have have jobs, they're very often not in a position where they can say to a worker. Sure, take nine months off.

"Governor James Lees gold of 45,000 Covert vaccinations per day includes a step that's not sitting well with some hospital leaders. Almost Brian Calvert reports. It's a dramatic shift to how care is usually provided is the governor talked about vaccinating more people Earlier this week, he included a new strategy frankly. There may have been kind of an attitude that will wait for the doses. Then we'll get appointments for people to come in. We need to reverse that. In other words, hospitals book your vaccination appointments. Now, assuming you'll get a supply of vaccine. If you don't just cancel the appointment, good discussion with the CEOs of hospitals about this subject. Perhaps Cassie Sour wasn't part of that conversation. She's the CEO of the Washington State Hospital Association. Sour fears nurses could be pulled from other duties for canceled appointment and worse, she fears backlash from an already emotional public. Imagine having your vaccine appointment confirmed. Then. Once you show up the hospital says we're out and you're gonna have to wait Sour suggested the state really does want to go this route that it provides a minimum number of doses. Hospitals can expect weekly Ryan Calvert Camo News, a lot of school district. They're still reporting high numbers of students not logging on for remote learning each day.

Statewide percentage of occupied beds is nearly 81% and the health department's goal is not to be over 80% but on Lee, the North west, south west and north central regions have met that goal.

These stretch while they are On the face off the directed against to me as an individual elected representative. They're really tried against an entire movement against the Black lives matter Movement and therefore it is so crucial. That we take this seriously.

He also happened to be a close mate of James Lee measurer, so I'd mentioned to show him that Hey, should meet my friend James, and they should have a discussion and I mentioned toe James that we should all have dinner together. And James was knew what he was up against. Hey, knew that he would. He'd be more or less facing a quasi in interrogation, but he was very willing to do so. In the summer of 2019. Sean Penn was filming a different documentary. It wasn't the film about Bashar al Assad. That one never happened. In the end, the Syrian president reneged on his promise to give Shawn unfettered access. The restrictions got more and more, and it was rather disappointing. We never started shooting. Instead sure ended up working on a different production in Istanbul, My documentarian partner and I We reached out to Martin for social reasons on our last night there And so he said, I'd like to bring James the measuring. What did you think of him? Well, like a lot of people that I've run into over the years. With a strong military background. There is discipline of soul that I appreciate, which is to say, I had a very good first impression of the human being sitting next to me in the restaurant. I felt he was a very thoughtful person. We didn't talk about the controversies about the white helmets. We sat down for drinks, and and James is very relaxed and just just went through a pretty well war narrative that point he did explain to so many people sitting in front of him and and wanting to know. About the terrorists in Syria that he was supporting and he would have the patience to explain things to each and every one of them. And that night in Istanbul was Sean Penn was no different. Like lots of people. Sean was confused by all the stories he'd heard. As the conversation went on. I could see Sean Penn's shoulder start to drop and he started to relax and he engaged and he listened and We had a really pleasant evening, which continued on into the early hours. Having met him. Did you feel more convinced that you had a better understanding of the white helmets? I found him very credible. He spoke to without pause each of the controversies that I inquired about in a very convincing way, You know? What does that mean? Means he's Very genuine or very good at portraying someone who's.

"Of James Lee measurer on the story of the white helmets. I honestly never imagined I'd end up on a call with the Hollywood actor Sean Penn. But James have an impact on lots of people. Sean was one of them. His connection to the story starts slightly tangentially. So bear with me while I get you there. As well as being an actor and director. Sean also has credits as producer on several documentaries. But in 2015, he decided he wanted to direct his own documentary. I have a friend who had access directly to President Assad. And I thought it would be interesting to make a documentary. You know, sort of setting up that period of the Arab spring and then flash forwarding and say, how come this is still working for him in Syria? And so we went. This is my friend and I went to meet with Assad. To see what kind of access we might be able to get. What kind of freedom we may have to report. Did you get to meet him in person? Yes. Shawn flew to Damascus in the middle of the worst war of the 21st century. He spoke to us for about two hours alone in the office. And then asked us to lunch and we jumped in his car and drove us from the office to the house where we had lunch with he and his family. He presented himself is that you know, open slate. President Assad was up for the documentary. He'd give Sean Penn. The access he wanted during his research. Short had come across the white helmets, and he didn't buy the idea. They were so white. Well, I was frankly was skeptical because there were deep suspicions about the white helmets and in many cases more than suspicions. The funding chain of the white helmets, which had been UK, Netherlands, US. All of those intelligence agencies were certainly aligned in the physics of the activities in the Middle East at that time, On the other hand, You also had undeniable. Mass murder going on. I was curious. I did ask the questions I had met. You'll know her name Vanessa. Feeling exactly Vanessa Billy. There she is again. Short version. British woman sympathetic to Assad, who worked tirelessly to undermine the white helmets. Longer version. See Episode five Although it turns out Sean was a bit confused. The woman he met was in fact, Vanessa's close friend, another Western citizen journalist, Eva Bartlett. It appears the two were so alike in their views. Sean got the mixed up..

"Serious civil defense. This organization has bean in existence since 1953 these groups. These crew members are based throughout Syria. And they worked tirelessly and without any funding whatsoever, Vanessa Billy's right. There is a national civil defense force in Syria, it only operates in government controlled areas. That's why there's a need for a parallel civil defense, the white helmets for the rebel held areas. Vanessa insists the white helmets are not a civil defense force it all So we have a very clear case of our regime. Our British regime. Creating funding arming promoting a completely fraudulent organization. When I first started looking into all the stories about the white helmets, I thought this whole argument about the real civil Defense force was slightly pointless. Then I saw Vanessa's tweets. And when she says, the white helmets or religion it target here she is on the YouTube conspiracy site being asked about whether she's called for their bombing. You never called for bombing of anybody. Look, I mean, I've made that very clear case. But the white helmets cannot be considered a humanitarian organization when they are embedded with a designated terrorist organization, I'II al Qaida and, of course, Isis and various other armed groups that are effectively working under the umbrella of Al Qaeda in Syria. They do not behave in any way like a humanitarian organization inside Syria, and therefore they themselves are legitimate targets in a war situation. How voice out there and called for their bombing. No, and I don't think Michael linked to the bombing would have any huge effects on Russia and Terry and military either. Way were utterly horrified with speechless. I mean, I bet I'd be dead already have words for it. Emma James Lee measure his wife. It's unspeakable, legitimizing the targeting of civilians. The fact that Billy was a UK national onboard is hosted on Russia today as an independent investigative journalist and other times as an expert on Syria. Gave her a credibility she should not have had on. I think the fact that she was setting them apart from other organizations are the rescue workers the fact that she singled him out? I think it allowed them to be targeted, which put their even greater risk. The point Vanessa Billy was making is that the white helmets are not protected by international law because she says they associate with jihadists. In an email. Vanessa told me she's not incentivized by any government on that. Her concern is getting to the truth. But the white helmets and James Lee measurer, along with them were about to face even worse accusations his Vanessa Billy on YouTube describing well, you can hear again.

She will seek reelection, but apparently she does not want the big chair. He doesn't want to be in the mayor's seat. There was some rumor as to that she was going to be Going? Oh, definitely. But I guess she's happy where she is. You can create just as much mayhem from where she sits now. Well, I think this is a very curious decision. But my guess is it has something to do with the fact that Mayor Jenny Durkin is not running. Durkin was the perfect foil for Mosqueda. Mosqueda was choose. She's one of the progressive. She's one of the initial people that called for 50%. You know de funding of the police. He's S O sees a strong She was out in the streets with the protesters ripping Durkin for the activity of the police force in all of that, And I think that she thought that using being able to run against Jenny Durkin as a foil for her position might work. And now that Jenny Durkan has decided not to run for re election, I'm wondering. This is pure speculation on my part if she feels like It might be a tougher road to hoe because if she's running against fellow people that think like her to distinguish her from them might be a trickier. She also on you know right now, the City Council seven of the nine positions run from like the neighborhood, So you know, District six represents the District six. She isn't one of the two districts that is citywide, I think, and so because of that she's gonna have to run a citywide campaign anyway. But I think she feels like since she's the incumbent. And, you know one quite Successfully last time that she had would have a better shot at this. The men and mayor because they run at the same time, so she couldn't some offices are you could hold office and then run and, you know, get and stay in office. If you lose in this case of the running the same time, she can't be an interesting calculation on the point. I don't think you know you're right. You don't have anybody to run against. You're gonna have to just run run further to the left. Whoever else comes in there against Mosqueda about why she was the council. Amorous Katie was the one you right? Did call for 50% cuts to the police, You know, basically d finding the police. That's police would of course, mean less police brutality, which would mean less crime. So that's the thinking there form Miss Mosqueda, who was a council member that called the cops when somebody threw a rock through the window is that Mosqueda? Where is knocked at Tammy Morale is with him, or else that had that. Who? Suddenly one of the police the herbal, a camera, which, well, suddenly one of the police to come back again. All right, So that's and Jon to be fair when you when you're saying you want to defund the police, It's not the same as saying You don't want police force personal safety. You still call the cops? I think that zone exaggeration, But as it turned out, they didn't get 50% de funding The cops. Even Mosqueda backed off on that So right. I think every 15 or 25th of the total amount taken. But don't forget you weren't you tune is do you want less police? They will have less police. I came over the number That's going to be coming out soon from the Seattle police department to telling telling us how many police are left in 2021. I haven't seen that number..

Namaste Trump: US president fills world's largest cricket stadium for political rally

"Almost two weeks ago the US president. Donald Trump was in India for a quick two-day tour. They were no major announcements expected but donald trump was to speak in front of over one hundred thousand people at huge cricket stadium in the city of Ahmedabad it was an event that piqued the interest of South Asia correspondent. James Ocean Bash. It turns out local media when more than a little curious why an Australian journalist had decided to go along to the spectacle on me. That's the sound of more than one hundred thousand people welcoming. Us President Donald Trump at a new cricket stadium in Ahmedabad not just any cricket stadium the largest in the world. According to seating capacity the president is used to speaking at large political rallies but even hey admitted awake lighter went back in the US that this was something special. This was a political party. Indian style music was blasting people were dancing in the stands paper masks and Prime Minister Narendra Modi and president trump will being worn with glee and they were baseball caps with trump's name on them. Lots of baseball caps the back of the stadium. I'm sitting among many local media and a few other foreign journalists just trying to absorb it all and then something unexpected happened. An Indian TV journalists came up to me and asked if she could interview me a mistrial Ian replied assuming that she thought I was an American. It doesn't matter. She showed me turns out. She wanted a foreign perspective about Modi meeting trump. Why was an Australian journalist here? Does this change the way USTRALIA views? India is big news back home those sorts of questions now. India has a lot of rolling news channels more than twenty. I'm told and that means a lot of hours have to be filled with content on. Saint Live crosses done here for less so when I figured why. Not and within a minute of saying yes. We relies when all of this about say the cell but I will give you a sense of that. Maybe guests with me right now. James Lee Denisov Eaton. That's fine birth names off food related daily. Denise these all Geisha going to spawn in with ABC The Australian Broadcasting Corporation. James. I want to ask you. You obviously definitely give me the foreign media perspective. Paul you wheeling this particular democracies these elitist. Then you've seen a lot of billboards around which summit ipod nausea you've got the world's largest democracy welcoming the first democracy in fact the most powerful democracy so I certainly pro-meta Strategy and perspective with a lot of interest in how they get along and how countries get along as well On. Tv The interviewer and occupying about a third of the screen. Another thirties live pictures of the rally and surrounding. Those two boxes are distracting amount of flashing graphics with the American Flag Waving on screen and headlines about mody welcoming trump constantly changing before the viewers is Indian media is certainly more shoddy than back harm and that includes the news animations anyway back to the interview Australia itself. It's always how to focus on China and you can say that starting to shift quite significantly and even the fries. Indo Pacific is one that you hear a lot more nowadays now. That's the point of made a fair bit recently. In fact the last time I was on this program I said I expected to hear more from India incoming years but if that's true change will surely be gradual industrial change. The Way Australia looks at in there. I wouldn't say a particularly changes to why you've seen to be honest. I likely wouldn't have gone to Ahmedabad either. Weren't for this. Visual spectacle with Donald Trump went on to discuss Australia Mont possibly join India Japan and the US in naval exercises this year or next and that was the end of the interview. Only Latin that perhaps the media not belong to either in America. Third-country thought that would be the end of it. I sat back down waiting for the main event to start but then a man with a golden microphone started chatting to me. He was a reporter with another news station India. Today within minutes on back on the air answering the sign. Top of questions. There was also a bit of Banter about how Australia no longer had the largest cricket stadium in fact that was repeated to me several times in the Strip opposite studio me like this random person who answered a question about Donald Trump explaining that the M. C. J. was no longer the world's largest cricket stadium minutes after the interview with India. Today I had another request for a TV interview and then another eventually. I decided because I had my own reporting to concentrate on now as I mentioned before. There's a lot rolling news platforms in India. Sorry grubbing may or any foreign Janai for an interview. Could just be filler. But it did get me thinking about the rise of India. He had the president of the United States showering India. And it's people with price.
