RT on Odysee

On this episode of America First, Scottie Nell Hughes goes after the “Science” Himself, Mr. Fauci. In a recent Senate hearing, Fauci pleaded the 5th amendment, refusing to answer questions he and his legal counsel believed would incriminate him for his handling of the Covid pandemic. So, will Fauci face justice for his lies to the American people, or is it too little too late?

Scottie is joined by Jody O’Malley, health and human services whistleblower, and Dewayne Moore, navy veteran and CEO of the Dewayne Moore Foundation.

RT spoke with Ryan Hartwig, Facebook Whistleblower & Censorship Expert, who warns that censoring political leaders during volatile protests could have deadly real-world consequences.

Today we hear from Radhika Desai, director of the Geopolitical Economics Research Group at the University of Manitoba, for some deep analysis on two major crises shaping our world: the Ukraine and Iran conflicts. Our guest is quite confident that Donald Trump’s latest pivot toward peace is a sign of desperation since he cannot admit defeat, as that would undermine the Republicans in the November midterm elections. She also thinks that recent Ukrainian terror attacks against an Italian restaurant in Moscow and a crowded beach in southern Russia, demonstrate Kiev’s collapsing position on the frontlines. Watch the whole episode here, on RT or on BitChute at ‘ricksancheztv’.

The EU says Ukraine belongs in the European family, but its accession timetable keeps sliding deeper into the future.

A video has resurfaced, from May of last year, of Secretary of State Marco Rubio sparking a national debate about free speech. Specifically about Israel and just how far the United States should go to defend a foreign ally. In the video Rubio says they will hold individuals and international organizations accountable for “rhetoric” against Israel. The administration says the policy is aimed at combating antisemitism. But here's an important question, who determines what crosses the line from protected political speech to actionable rhetoric? And what standards are used to make that determination? America Now anchor Ben Swann talks about it with independent journalist Melissa Witte about the video and what it means. And, most people know Viagra as a treatment for erectile dysfunction. But now researchers say the same drug may have the potential to slow the spread of cancer. America Now’s Jalyssa Dugrot has the details.

New reports that the United States is withdrawing from bases in Bahrain and Kuwait after weeks of consistent barrages from Iran have put U.S. troops in harm's way. So far President Trump has refused to comment on the situation. But here is the thing about this situation. Nobody can tell you if this war with Iran is about to end or about to get worse, including, it seems, the two governments actually fighting it. President Trump says peace talks are happening. Iran says they're not. And meanwhile, we're getting reports of plans for massive new escalation. America Now's Ben Swann talks with Ali Akbar Dareini, researcher and writer at the Tehran-based center for strategic studies. And, a new startup company in the U.S. has developed a humanoid robot designed to carry military gear, move through dangerous terrain, and even clear buildings before troops enter. So exactly how close are we to seeing them on the battlefield? America Now's Olivia Flynn has that story.

Christopher Helali, senior journalist at DD Geopolitics, joins RT from Karbala, Iraq, to discuss the obstacles facing the talks, Iran’s continued closure of the Strait of Hormuz and the regional consequences of another major military escalation.

A decade ago if you fought under the banner of Al-Qaeda you were an enemy of the United States, period. American presidents made speeches that they were going to hunt you down and kill you. We spent trillions of dollars and two decades fighting the war on terror against these groups, but what if we told you, Al-Qaeda is in Washington right now? Mohammad Qanatri became Syria's official diplomat to America, the first in over a decade. He has a diplomatic passport and diplomatic immunity, free access to the U.S. capital where he lives now. The only problem: he was a big part of Al-Qaeda at one point. America Now's Jalyssa Dugrot talks with Patrick Henningsen, founder of 21st Century Wire about what this means and how it actually happened. Plus, is this real? During a presentation at a global conference in Brazil, a U.S. government-produced map of Africa mislabeled six of the continent's nations. The map was so bad the countries on the map did not even show the boundaries of any actual existing countries.
