Joe Biden has taken the same hard line stance as Donald Trump by maintaining the embargo. This stance moves away from Barack Obama's policies that sought to cool tensions between the neighboring nations. ~ Full episodes of Redacted Tonight will no longer be available on YouTube.

Donald Trump made his third State of the Union address this week and despite the recent impeachment drama with the DNC there's still a lot of bipartisan support for the terrible actions of our government. Lee watched the speech and found several points of agreement between the parties on issues such as the US's prison industrial complex and our foreign interventions. The Iowa caucus debacle, Brexit, and the Kentucky gun rights protests are covered in "Taking The News From Behind." Trump has shifted his "Muslim Ban" into a "Travel Ban" affecting several African nations. Naomi Karavani reports that it will now include Nigeria, Myanmar, Eritrea, Kyrgyzstan, Sudan and Tanzania. However, immigrants with enough money will be able to pay their way around it. Natalie McGill finishes off the show with the story of how telecom companies are taking advantage of Ajit Pai's net neutrality repeal. ~ Our videos are heavily suppressed by YouTube and Facebook.

From a shitty hotel room in Seattle, I talk about how Steve Bannon is out of the White House and back at Breitbart because he clashes with the administrations' total neglect of campaign promises for less war. I disagree with 95% of Bannon's ideology, but the it's the non-interventionist 5% responsible for his exit. Plus, many of the Dems in power cheering for Bannon's exit, are pretending to be on our side, while they actively fuel systemic white supremacy through mass incarceration and war. Both parties in power seem to believe our country has the supreme right to decide what other countries do, and to punish if they don't comply. Both parties are decidedly racist in their policies; and the Dems, with such neoliberal economics, have literally nothing to offer their people except scapegoating Russia, or the Neo Nazis. Trump too, is not offering any political programs or solutions to help his economically struggling base, so he scapegoats immigrants. Meanwhile, money continues to pour into the military industrial complex.
