"Rackets out of Kuwait and he wasted it If I have a chance to invade if I had that much capital I'm not going to waste it I'm going to get everything passed that I want to get past and I'm going to have a successful presidency And he did And that's why he got reelected The only Republican in 34 years to win a national presidential presidential election and it was not his first one He lost his first one in 2000 by 500,000 votes But this was his reelection because of that war War creates a rally around the flag effect And that clearly has damaged America Badly Bush and Cheney damaged America We just have to acknowledge it Just like Nixon and LBJ damaged America with Vietnam I mean we just need to be honest about that But that said that doesn't mean that we should just say okay mister Putin go for it or mister Erdoğan go for it or mister G go for it or mister Modi take cashmere whatever It doesn't mean that we should be we should just shut up You know put our tail between our legs We need to clean up our own act but we also need to go ahead with that stuff Thank you very much for the call Nancy and Woodland California hey Nancy what's on your mind today Yeah I'm just wondering if you've seen Greg Powell's latest newsletter I have I'm sorry go ahead Well I was going to say we reached out to him this morning to come on the show and talk about it There wasn't he didn't get back to us in time for us to organize it around the show But his premise but I am going to be talking to him on the phone after I get off the other afternoon about some other things And Greg's argument is that if we ended the oil embargo against Venezuela it would lower world oil prices because Venezuela could then start dumping oil on the national international markets I want to talk to Greg about it before we go on the air because I have two points of skepticism with regard to that One is that the refinery capacity in Venezuela And for that matter the drilling and export capacity has been seriously degraded over the last couple of decades as a consequence of all the corruption in that country And secondly the kind of oil that they produce is what's called high sulfur oil it's a real real dirty oil and it requires a very special and unique kind of refinery It's just like I believe it was Coke industries built the refinery down in Texas right on the Gulf Coast So that they could take Keystone XL pipeline coal slurry from Canada refine it and then sell the refined products overseas You would have to so it took a unique kind of refinery to be able to deal with the stuff coming from Keystone XL It would be the same thing with the oil out of Venezuela So I just wanted to fact check it a little before I went off on it I guess Oh okay that's great You may well be right on Greg Houston used to report from Venezuela He knows a hell of a lot more about Venezuela than I do So hopefully we can follow up on that next week when I've had an opportunity to actually learn a little more about it I don't like to just walk into things on the air cold And not know what I'm talking about That would be great Yeah I hope you do that It would be wonderful to hear what you have to say after talking to us Nancy thank you very much for the call Charlie and Austin Texas Hey Charlie what's on your mind Yeah I'd like to discuss the Supreme Court nominee and actually further a Supreme Court nominee With his current nominee she seems right And she comes from Harvard And she has 2° from Harvard One cum laude and the other Magna cum laude Yeah and that's fine and all And I'm not arguing against this specific nominee What I would suggest is that we could add more adjustments to the Supreme Court increase it from a larger number but the additional justices on top of that would come from public universities rather than these powerhouse schools that tend to have all of the power Because the last several nominees have come from Georgetown university Yale Harvard Those types of institutions And that's fine and great enough But at the same time the public interest is the public isn't aware of how good the public schools and public universities can be and shaping the justice system I mean the justice system doesn't just need a couple of central figures that come in from up high They say hey this is how it's going to be It should be a more diverse and more center of power And that's in principle Charlie I absolutely agree with you If you look at Supreme Court Justices and I did a deep dive on this when I wrote the book they had a history of the Supreme Court of the betrayal of America You look at the justices basically prior to the 1950s and 60s What you'll find is actually some diversity in the education of the justice is going all the way back to the founding of the republic But the reason what has happened is because the president nominates the justice And.

"Military and arms production Well it's a great question I mean I think one they have a lot of say and Congress They have obvious and funding individuals I'm on the armed services committee and to give you a sense of perspective I was one of two members out of 57 or 59 60 total probably 50 7 voted for the defense budget and two of us Sarah Jacobs and I voted against it And this defense budget that we passed is more than the defense budget at the height of Trump It's more than the defense budgets at the height of the Cold War And it's partly because people don't want to be seen as weak on national security So they outbid each other on legacy industries that have nothing to do with it And it's partly a lot of lobbyist interests of the big defense contractors It's also isn't it that the defense industry has managed to build a defense plant in every single congressional district in America They have And it makes it very very hard And that's why we have to have a vision of what the jobs are going to be But it's not the military families or even these jobs and communities that are getting the bulk of the defense budget It's the executives making about 5 million a year on average at these big defense firms that are getting the profits And so somehow we have to make it about these executives at defense contractors and convince people This is not about the jobs We can't have those jobs doing clean tech and have those jobs doing a lot of other things as opposed to creating legacy fighter jets that we don't even use it Yeah I got it Added Chicago you are on the air with congressman congressman nakano Thanks for doing this My question is does it really register when you leave a voicemail when you call your anybody in the Senate or the House as compared to talking to a real human being change like some people it's almost like 80% of the time you can actually talk to a person and there's other people that you'll never get a human being It's always going to voicemail So do people really check those voicemails Well let me be candid I think they always get checked The voicemail but sometimes people need casework or help And then they get followed up with But if it's just expressing an opinion then they probably just get tally So at the end of the week I get a report saying X amount of people called in saying you should be for build back better or you should be climate investment And that's the biggest value because if a lot of people call in then that peaks a person who's representing its curiosity is that something that people in my district really care about Archie and Tallahassee Florida you're on the earth congressman Connor Thank you mister Hartman for taking my call and hello congressman Situation Being at that recently online is wrong but I thought that the necessary seat that we need it was filled on the commission that oversees the post office and therefore we now are in position to actually have the joy replaced Number one do I understand that Properly and if I do have a correct how can we urge Biden to move more quickly than would it appears to be he is Well my understanding of the situation is that Biden has done everything he possibly can He's appointed the new board of governors who have the power to fire to joy And now they have a majority and now he doesn't have the authority to do anything more than that We passed finally a package to give the funding on for the postal service And they've been starved of funding by president Bush Bush two who had all these onerous requirements on them for future retirement that they had to put money away from We're finally getting them the money they need But we get a more oversight hearing that these independent board of governors don't act on DeJoy I hope that they will Nancy and Woodland California you're on the air with the representative Khanna Hi Yeah I know in recent years I think it was 2019 or something It came out that the Medicare advantage programs had charged our overcharge the Medicare program like 30 billion something like that And I believe they were supposed to start paying it back So has that happened Are they done that Thank you I have not found out if they have reimbursed yet I can definitely.

Representatives is vice chair of the congressional progressive caucus Conor kha N and a dot house dot gov is his website is Twitter handle is row RO Khan AHA NNA and congressman welcome back to the program So you guys congratulations You passed build back better out of the house this morning and goes to the Senate where are we at Where does this go What are your thoughts on it Is there anything else you wanted to talk about before we start picking up phone calls Look I'm late It seems like I'm coming on every time we have these important votes I think last time I was on it was also one of these important votes That's great Huge achievement this morning We got everyone in our caucus to vote for the president's build back better Bill universal preschool for the first time in this country's history it's going to have the biggest investments in climate that we've ever made over $550 billion a child care no family is going to have to pay more than 7% in child care And it passed with all Democrats except one and not a single Republican vote So now it goes to the Senate I am confident that the president's framework which basically passed the House will be accepted largely unscathed in the Senate but obviously we're going to be vigilant and making sure that it doesn't get diluted And then it comes back to us and goes to the president's desk Wow So it's going to go through reconciliation Or not reconciliation of yeah what's the process where the Senate modifies the bill and comes back to you guys it's called conference call Yeah But you know I mean what the president did I thought which was a tremendous leadership Is he basically pre conference that with his framework And people said well how are you going to ensure that people are going to vote for it Well he's done 50% He showed it work I mean his framework had the votes of everyone in the house but one And he's confident that the framework will have the votes of all of the 50 senators plus vice president Harris So we need to make sure a particular on climate that it doesn't get diluted in that we don't have further cuts but I am confident that people should vote for the president's compromise framework which he had private assurances from everyone that they would support Yeah that's absolutely spectacular Before we pick up phone calls anything else you wanted to highlight or flag or make sure it doesn't slide by during the course of this hour I just want to say one thing on the cost People keep throwing out this 1.75 trillion Just to put it in context that is less than 200 billion a year because it's over ten years and our defense budget is about 750 billion a year So it's one third of what we're spending on defense which is over 50% of the discretionary budget And by the way the spending is less than 1% of our GDP So we should say we're getting a lot for actually not much money as opposed to this media narrative that's been created that somehow they're spending all this money Yeah for sure Okay well let's pick up phone calls for if people are if anybody's just tuning in congressman ro Khanna vice chair of the congressional progressive caucus which had a major victory this morning is with us for the hour taking your calls in our progressive national town hall meeting And let's start with the edge in Chicago Ed you're on the earth with Congress and conn Well let me go along with congratulations on testing that Bill It kind of goes in my question about because hopefully the corporate media will cover it You get the coverage It deserves But my question is what is the downside of democratic politicians at this point in time whenever they refer to Republicans the start referring to them as the fascist Republicans And I'm thinking if this offends some Republicans and if it makes it might be a way of breaking it into the corporate news and if Democrats have to go on air on the corporate news explain why they're calling these people fashion I think that would be a good thing and I think it would wake up the people who you need to reach which is the people who don't even know this program exists Well first of all thank you for the congratulations I know we're doing something right if we've got Tom Harper's calling to congratulate us because usually they're appropriately challenging us to be more bold and progressive But let me you're absolutely right to be concerned about what I would say is the rise of authoritarianism around this country And instead of calling everyone fascists or authoritarian where you may lose independence or tune them out I think we ought to be very specific about what's happening It's a rise of authoritarianism when we have people trying to manipulate state laws so that the state legislature or governor can determine the winner of a presidential election instead of the popular vote And that is going on in state after state It is the rise of authoritarianism what we're trying to throw off poor people or poor black poor folks in communities of color off the voting roles And that is going on in states It's a authoritarian tactic when the party is threatening that if you vote for a bipartisan infrastructure Bill you're going to be kicked off committees So what I would say is you're absolutely right we have to point out the dangers but we should do that with very specific examples so that people say yeah this is wrong Nancy and Woodland California you're on the air with Congress and Connor Hi I just wanted to ask go far as video showed in attacking AOC and also on his way to attack Biden And I'm just wondering why he wasn't actually expelled from Congress why he was just censured Well Nancy it's a good point I mean sensor is a pretty remarkable and extraordinary force of Congress and the reason is that what he did was basically glorifying violence and what he did was something that has no doubt should have no toleration in any workplace I think the concern about actually expelling is just whether you want to deny constituency their entire voice and representation which is a very serious thing or whether you want to expose what happened sensor that the private of committees and then have the electoral process play out in 2022 Nancy and chihuahua Washington if I'm mispronouncing that Nancy fix that for me and you're on the record Think of a dog catch in a car in chewing on the wheel Okay So my question is you have big homeless problem Why isn't there something in housing to make to bring back the weekly the rooming houses that rent by the week It's much easier to get up a week's worth of rent or even two weeks worth and two months worth of rent And that would take a lot of homeless people off the street We used to call SRO I think Yeah so yeah So there is a 150 billion in housing funding that will go largely to the states that they will have some discretion and what they want to do with it and there's so much in this bill I didn't mention that upfront But my guess is that states would have the flexibility to design or allocate some of that funding for that purpose if they thought it was the most effective but there's a 150 billion in the bill that will go particularly on housing and homelessness issues That is not inconsequential That's huge And in belfair you are on the air with representative condom Hello Tom Hello

Probably because of newsome's strict coverted policies The supporters of the recall say that the governor went too far when it comes to mask mandates business closures during the pandemic. But i think it's also important to remember that this specific recall effort actually started before the pandemic so newsom has had certainly opponents. Republicans don't agree with his policies across the board not just as cova restrictions right. Republicans say it's about the issues and how newsom has governed the state democrats say it's an attempt by republicans to actually take over the state of california. You've been talking to voters. What are you hearing about the basis of their vote. What is this recall. Really about for them i have. I spoke this morning with thirty nine year. Old woodland california resident justin smith. He says that the governor's handling of the pandemic really influenced his. Yes vote on the recall. I think we've seen the strictest lockdowns pretty much in the country My mom took her life in february a largely because of the anxiety caused by the lockdown measure. So i understand. That cove is a threat but I think we're completely ignoring the many consequences of these mitigation measures and smith added that another frustration was the closures of schools. The last school year. He has children in schools. He feels that the governor should have done more to keep schools open in california. We know that turnout is typically low for special elections especially among democrats. What does the current turn out look like will as of late last week about one third of all ballots that had been issued in california and california issued mail ballots to all registered voters about one third had already been returned election. Experts predict that turn will actually be pretty good for the recall election. They're estimating somewhere in the fifty to fifty five percent In person voting the expectations are. That will get a pretty sizable turn out for the recall and polling actually shows that newsome is in the lead. His main opponent is is larry elder conservative and controversial. Talk show radio host. Who who biden compares to former president donald trump. What are some important things to know about elder for his campaign. He would like to see the end of mask. Mandates in california. He'd like to see the end of vaccine mandates as well those are probably his two biggest policies that he's put forward but really that would go against what a lot of the sort of strong democratic base Supports here in california so the question really becomes not whether elder will be the top candidate looks like he will but whether newsom will hang on and get fifty percent in the recall to retain his job. I want to ask you specifically about what the future more. Broadly looks like california politics. If newsom loses or wins but elder is already talking fraud he appealed to supporters to use an online form to report fraud and he says his team has already detected it and the results but that was yesterday before results were in. Is this his strategy. What can you tell us quickly about this. It does does appear to be his strategy. He along with of course former president donald trump Recently weighed in on the california. Recall when you speak with election officials and experts say there is no evidence to show any fraud the also note that elections in california just like across the country. They're decentralized run by local election officials and that it would be almost impossible to have them all secretly get together to rig an election given the decentralized nature of how elections are operated in california. Of course the bigger question that we're all waiting for and those are the results what the future could look like more immediately for california politics if and loses or or if he wins while i think if he loses and say larry elder is elected Certainly that you would see the end to these masks mandates you would see an into vaccine mandates for state workers for healthcare workers and then voters would have choice again a in one year to to see if they wanna keep the replacement candidate. That was cap. Radio's chris nichols thank you so much for this. Update thank you. There are new questions about the us. Military's final drone strike before leaving afghanistan. The pentagon call this attack on august. Twenty ninth a righteous strike against a man with suspected ties to the islamic state but investigations by several news outlets cast doubt on the official story including whether the victim had anything to do with isis yesterday on capitol hill. The secretary of state antony blinken was asked by representative johan omar if the strike mistakenly killed civilians that is looked at very very very carefully by others in the administration so that we understand exactly what happened or what didn't happen and no country on earth. No government takes more precautions to try to ensure that anyone other than the intended terrorist target is struck using a drone or vite by any other means. Matthew aitken's investigated this attack for the new york times. He joins us from kabul on skype. Line matthew welcome back. Thanks for having me okay. So here's what we know that seems to be undisputed zimeray. Amati was forty three years old. He worked for an american ngo and he relative at applied for refugee settlement. In the us. Can you start by telling us with. The pentagon says happened the us military had said they struck car a target. That was an isis facilitator and to prevent an imminent threat against the airport. Okay and how does that square with your reporting. Maybe first of all whether there's any connection in your reporting to isis or being at a nicest facility well it went to the site of the strike the day afterward and it had taken place in the courtyard of a house and i spoke to the family. Whose house was they were extremely grief-stricken. They told me they had just lost ten members their family including seven children. There was still human rains spattered around the courtyard and car had been struck but took photographs. The scene based on the expert analysis. There's no evidence that there was loss. Larger secondary blast as military has repeated the claim so that calls the question whether there could have been explosives in the car in the basin reporting that we did over the next two weeks. It seemed like this guy had a typical day at work at this. Ngo colleagues in his family said he was driving around to helping to deliver food to refugees. Basically so what. The military may have interpreted from the drone feed as suspicious was just a normal day. We got camera footage from the offices showed him filling up. Some water jugs to put in the trunk of his car and he was taken at home to his family because they had run out of water. That wasn't water deliveries after claps the government. So we didn't find any lincoln's so could this be one source of confusion here that the pentagon is saying that they thought he had some explosives in his vehicle in it actually was the water. It's possible they claim the base also secondary blast which doesn't seem to have been the case the following questions basically why they decided to take strike in a crowded residential neighborhood. You know whether it was going to be a high. Very high risk of casualties. In fact seven children were killed. So what was the imminent threat. Even was some connection. Isis ten casualties here. What what do you know about. How much visibility. Us drones have into this is..

But he's a tell us what are demanding now so many now fast forward years later so many facts and truth have came out all that that i shared with the first narrative with not true. My brother was dressed. He was assaulted in his home before cups and he did not assault them. And i've seen the video at heard the audio so we want full. Transparency want his case reopened but right now with everything going on in the country and police killings being brought to light and we are acting with other families that all of our cases be open because there is so much corruption so much horrible things behind oliver killings. So that's why. I work with the other families as well because it's happening to all of us. How bad my story is which i just shared a piece of. It's horrible but all the other families that i work with. They have similar stories just as bad just we have our own unique twist to it but ultimately we go through the same things. I'd like to bring thought haridas back into the conversation. This whole issue of reform. There's been all this talk now. In the past year since the death of george floyd about ways to reform or even fund the police you have a long history in dealing with police abuse. What is your sense of where these calls were reform or transformation of policing are going to go on. I'm in full support of all of that. The problem would i'm sitting. Is that if an officer simply says they were there for life. None of those. How that doesn't mean you. Stop everything that you can do is late body cameras that that was not happening before you know of accountability project a center on that stuff have been there a number of things that happens Of i personally. I mentioned a second ago thirty forty fifty years to life. That's the only thing that's gonna stop this however one of the things that we're doing this project is looking at going to the international criminal court at the un and the the always version. Also we've gone to the un before the convention on racist we other races. That's not enough. It's to go to the criminal level where they hunt down. Nazi seventy years after the by buddy such as mentioned families off killings have no statute of limitation. That's why you're able to hunt down people you know With money said is every single family has the story in their powerful. and they have to live in relive. Know it's inhumane. So i personally think of anybody that comes up with the reforming can pass great it but we can stop there. We have the continuing. It'll transparency access to videos everything you know when the cameras started happening people said all it's gonna be over now but you know all the jones were talking about how many prosecutions i had to watch probably over a thousand videos by book. But you'll keep book Doesn't really matter you can see in. They'll say hi. You didn't see what happened before or those would have announced awards you know. There's a man in out of acres of who was killed the dot weapon. They found a crucifix on him. The francisco seven there was a daniel who had a state of washington who was killed carrying south. You know we was the great grandson of chief. Joseph air that helpful rate that to me. That's the scariest thing you don't scare them. The crucifix in a way because everyone has a cell phone so they if they wanna claim that i saw shiny objects and they're gonna find a cell phone. I'm pretty much everybody you know. It's you know the problem is not policed by themselves. It's the judicial system and it's the politicians are cowardly It's our society as a whole you know. Let me tell you even covers every single day. We society based on those that have also basically. We've been i. I look at it like those that are considered human those those that are mattress rate.

Now so sorry to hear about your brother michael bed. Tell us what happened to him in two thousand seventeen low and thank you for having me this morning in two thousand seventeen night. He was murdered by police in her hometown. Details are still not all clear but we do know and this is their physical evidence and and audio video pictures now. At this point that he was before being killed by lease he was assaulted in his home by unknown assailants and just moments later he was murdered by multiple officers and he was killed in a similar way to george floyd. He had by officers on top of ten and the struggle lasted moments. He had the teaser used on him excessively according to their own policies and he was being beaten and he was ultimately suffocated to death. He his back. There is a question whether he had to news from this officer who was sitting on his back who is over two hundred and fifty pounds. My brother was saying. I can't breathe. He was struggling. He was asking for health and we don't know who has lots of diminish house that we have reason to believe that it had to do with the police for the fact the way he was murdered. He was unarmed. He was not posing a threat to these officers and he was telling them he was not a threat and asking them why they were trying to kill it. Meant they already had guns and stuff and they were rounding up on him so we do have reason to believe that they were involved in some way as brother was speaking on things going on in the community such as missing people missing teenagers just days before he was murdered. This way. we do have the video evidence. Would you have the audio we have. The damage is done to his body. But just after this happened they covered it up. They put a false narrative on him to make him look like he was his criminal. Who was out there trying to harm people in china. Kill the police and that really starting to run. I wanted to ask you specifically what was what were you initially told abayas. Authorities had happened. What was their initial count to you. So i do want to say. We were not informed by the police and my brother's murder. We found out by an acquaintance in town who was at the hospital we arrived they were refusing to let my family and with my brother refusing to let my mother see my brother in his final moments he was already deceased but he was two doors down from us and they had police locking highs at that point. They told us that he was found dead in somebody's yard. There are some kind of altercation. I found out a by going to his home and finding police blocking off his home where he was not killed. That police had killed him so fast word that day. We were told by the sergeant within. Pd sergeant guthrie that my brother was in some kind of fight struggle with multiple cops that he was running from cops. It was chase that he was unarmed and he was killed. Fifteen minutes later they released will be released into our local news. Daily democrat that. My brother had multiple weapons that he had a golf club. Shafts knives scissors that he was naked. Trench coat that he was breaking into cars and he was charging and attacking officers as said so many horrible things about my brother only fifteen minutes after they told my family to our faith that he was an unarmed man who was killed by multiple officers and they didn't know why.

Thank you for talking with me. I would. I'd like to know how professional photographers citing their pictures. I texted a my neighbor only to find it on her business website with no credit to me. Nice autumn way we recently had Opri removed. And the Arbor said that took down the tree instead of you see a man lift. He actually climbed the tree. So I have these beautiful pictures of shilla wet pictures of him in the tree with the sun setting on the Western hills kind of a pink and blue sky. Um, they're wonderful advertising pictures. But I would like credit for them. So how can I sign those pictures? Play? Signed them from my iPhone, or do I have to put them on the computer to find them? You know, that's funny about your neighbor. Like. Oh, I just use that. No problem. Yeah, they didn't did. They didn't give you like even credit at the bottom of the page. Anything? No, no, no, no, She just put it on her business website. Well, you know what? We're just not gonna bake cookies for her next holiday. That's for sure. Um, All right, so really easy to do. What you gotta do is put a water mark on it. How do I do that? Oh, well, you've come to the right place. Okay, is that you open up photos and it's really simple. Do and you tap at it. And then in the right hand corner of the screen. You're going to choose Markham. And that's where you can use like writing utensils, and you can use an icon. You can type out a water mark. You can use the signature font, which is probably the easiest way to do it. So you put a little copyright notice. There's the icon and then you put your name and you put that sucker right in the middle of the picture or someplace where It can't be cropped out. And do that on the iPhone. Sure, yeah. You just open up photos and hit editing the three dots. And then if you choose texts in the text kind of come in, and then it's going to save the water marked photo after you tap done. Uh to the camera roll, and it's really, really easy way for you to make sure that number one your photos. You know, you get credit for your photos and number two is that They're used the right way. And there are separate programs that you can use Joan that will actually do the water marking, but because you have an iPhone, you're taking it in the iPhone, which, by the way, just takes amazing photo those using mine the other day. It's It's remarkable to me how far technology has come. Edit markup at it. Pardon me three dots mark up. And then that's where you can play some text. And then after you hit done, hit, upload, and then it will be saved right to your camera all and then people.
