Quest for the truth (The Ken Rick podcast)

We have reached the end of the working week and I hope you guys have a wonderful weekend! Today we reminisce on how we got involved in Afghanistan to begin with and also how we took an erratic turn to go to Iraq and we've been paying ever since. I also continue to talk about our problem with this pandemic which unfortunately from the get-go has become one big political controversy and it shouldn't have been that way. Let me tell you what my vision was and unfortunately the results of our erratic maneuvering against this pandemic show --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

Saludos a todos, gracias por su respaldo! Hoy hablamos de como el trabajador a nivel mundial es abusado y explotado pero se supone que esten agradecidos. Tambien hablamos de lideres religiosos y politicos que mienten causando stress innecesario y en ocasiones eso tiene consecuencias fatales --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

Saludos y gracias por su respaldo! En este episodio estoy hablando de las tres potencias las cuales como ustedes saben son los Estados Unidos China y Rusia y el factor de que mientras criticamos a Estados Unidos lo cierto es que la historia de China y Rusia inclusive cuando era la Unión soviética tienen una historia bien sangrienta aún con sus propios ciudadanos. También entiendo que hay una desconfianza entre millones de personas para aplicarse la vacuna al covid 19 y debido a la historia de corrupción gubernamental y aún la historia siniestra que algunas compañías farmacéuticas tienen se puede entender esta falta de confianza pero yo creo que debemos confiar en la vacuna y de hecho ya yo me puse las dos inyecciones de pfizer. Pero comienzo este episodio hablando de algo que es obvio y es el cambio climático y si no se han dado cuenta hay eventos climáticos históricos todos al mismo tiempo en los Estados Unidos y Canadá la china central Alemania y Bélgica y este fin de semana pasado en Londres Inglaterra --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

Happy beginning of the week! Thanks for listening! In this episode we discuss the recent electoral overhaul in several states, specifically Georgia. We think this is creating a problem that was meant as a solution for a non existent problem. Also the latest in vaccine controversy. Finally, is marijuana really harmless? https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/545085-five-big-takeaways-on-georgias-new-election-law?rl=1. https://www.salon.com/2021/05/26/anti-vaccine-movements-shift-their-target-to-the-vaccinated/?utm_campaign=later-linkinbio-salonofficial&utm_content=later-18993384&utm_medium=social&utm_source=linkin.bio --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

Greetings and thank you for another opportunity to come to you thanks to the magic of anchor FM. In this episode part of our effort we touch superficially on the fact that the Democrats are pretty good at losing elections and not explaining exactly what they plan. Also it's in the amazing how people for the love of money are willing to take risk that in the end are damaging and dangerous to regular citizens? Has anybody noticed how hypocritical youth bashing is? Finally the events of these past couple of weeks are strong testimony that climate change is not a theory that cannot be proven because we believe it's been proven over and over and over --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

Buenos días amigos de habla hispana, en este episodio hablamos de cómo el racismo lamentablemente se usa en la política norteamericana y no vemos como eso vaya a cambiar. También nos resulta increíble como el gobernador que fue expulsado en el verano del 2019 es un cabildero para la estadidad de Puerto Rico en Washington, situación que expone El poder del culto a la personalidad --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

Greetings and the best desires for your well-being! We think it's already high time for the Misinformation to stop and for the anti vaccination attitude to cease to exist. Also we think there is a gun problem in America and the billionaires that are going to space are being subjected to un-warranted hate. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

In light of what's happening in our country is there hope for the future? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

The situation in Cuba and Haiti is alarming. Equally alarming is the reaction here at home and from international groups that were very vocal in the year 2020 about police brutality but have been silent in condemning what's going on in both Cuba and haiti. Let me explain... --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

En este episodio de nuestro esfuerzo hablo de El sentimiento brutalmente decepcionante qué sentí este año durante las celebraciones de el cumpleaños de los Estados Unidos de Norteamérica.

Greetings from Florida at a moment in which hurricane Elsa might be entering the state. In this episode we will talk about the July 4th celebration or better yet the depressive reaction to the quintessential holiday in america. This to me was the most depressing one because of all the controversy going on and as usual I blame both the left and the right for the unnecessary stress on a celebration that should be about not the perfection of our country because we're not perfect but the success that many people can attribute to our way of life and yes we have to atone for many sins committed but also we should celebrate all the good that we have represented to the world. This and other current topics are discussed in this episode of real life is fake --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

Today we celebrate the 245th birthday of the Great American nation which in my opinion is the best country in the world. The reality is that we're the lesser of many evils because in this birthday and in every birthday and every Independence Day we like to brag about our freedoms our Liberty and how great we are and to certain extent we are. I learned to love and respect this country since an early age but it wouldn't be consistent with my efforts if I ignore several things that are happening in our country right now and have happened in the past that leave a stain in our celebration so here we go in our special for July 4th 2021 the birthday number 245 for the great nation of the United States of America --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

Que significa este día? Para mí significa varias cosas negativas y positivas.

We hope that when this episode drops on anchor FM that you're all doing great! And this chapter we talk about the comments made by Dr Anthony fauci stating that the way vaccination it's been conducted in the United States we might end up with two Americas one mostly vaccinated and one hardly vaccinated and to that I say where have you been doctor? We've had two Americas for quite a while now and we talk about that because those two Americas are different in more ways than just health issues. Of course we also talk about the situation in Surfside Florida with the tragedy that happened after the building that collapsed has given us a higher number of victims and we discuss the reasons why comedian Bill Cosby has been released from prison --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

Estudiamos cronológicamente los eventos qué llevaron al derrumbe de este edificio y como ya se veían signos de peligro hacen varios años atrás y también vemos como los rescatistas están haciendo lo más humanamente posible para encontrar sobrevivientes aunque el tiempo apremia. Hablamos también de un problema que sigue azotando el país lo cual es los tiroteos en masa y hablamos de la cultura del arma de fuego que es bien prominente en Estados Unidos. Pero comenzamos el episodio discutiendo el hallazgo de centenares de cadáveres de niños indígenas en una escuela católica localizada en Canadá lo cual explotado en la opinión pública en lo que es uno de los escándalos más trágicos de los últimos años o mejor dicho en las últimas décadas --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

I am sending my best wishes for all of you my friends and in this episode we want to talk about the battle between the two major political parties concerning crime control in the streets.

We're also talking about the return of Donald Trump to the road kicking off with a rally in Ohio and what implications that could bring to the midterm elections in 2022 and even the presidential elections of 2024. Finally van Jones set recently that the sentencing in the George Floyd case and based on that comment I bring up other punches in the gut that we have felt recently --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

Espero que todos se encuentren bien Al momento de soltar este episodio. Hoy lamentablemente hablo del derrumbe de ese edificio de apartamentos en la zona de Miami Beach y la posibilidad de que ese no sea el único edificio que ha tenido problema con el terreno en el que está edificado. El otro tema importante es la sentencia al policía que asesinó porque aunque no era la intención terminó asesinando a George Floyd en Minnesota en el año 2020. Y claro también discutimos un tema que sigue siendo algo que discutimos en este esfuerzo el cuál es el cambio climático y específicamente un artículo que fue publicado por bbc mundo --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

Hola, saludos! En este episodio de nuestro podcast hablamos extendidamente de cómo el covid 19 a sido manejado propiamente en Singapur y en otros lados de Asia pero siguiendo en esa línea de pensamiento no hemos terminado con la pandemia todavía. La foto de la joven Laura arrighetti te dice la historia de cómo éste virus ha expuesto las deficiencias en el mundo pero específicamente en Latinoamérica para poder controlar esta pandemia. Pero nuestro tema principal es la manera como los políticos y específicamente los candidatos presidenciales en Estados Unidos juegan con nuestras emociones haciendo promesas que toda persona que ha seguido la política por bastante tiempo sabe que nunca van a cumplir y un ejemplo grande es el actual presidente Joseph Biden --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

Greetings and thank you for listening to our effort! In today's episode I go deep into the racial conversation in America including some personal perspectives. Also we continue to cover the conversation about Brazil and their difficulties as of late. In addition we touch on the racial disparities exposed by the pandemic and to the younger generation or even the middle aged generation you have to be careful what you do now because it may come back to haunt you years later --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

Once again hello and thank you for listening to our effort here on anchor fm. And this edition of our podcast we will be talking about the following:. 1- Brazil not long ago was supposed to become the second superpower out of our hemisphere after the United States of course. But years of government corruption and social problems have plunged the awesome Brazilian people into an uncertain future and if you add Jair bolsonaro you know things are bad. The problem is that just like in the United States the opposition may not be as attractive to defeat one of the biggest demagogues in South American history. 2- on that line Donald Trump has made a comeback and continues to spew his nonsense but at this point is it really his fault that our country continues to be dramatically divided or is it time for Americans to look at each other and realize that we are not each other's enemies and we can do without this opportunist demagogue as well as the rest of the clowns in the political Spectrum. 3- after more than 15 years it seems that time is vindicating the ex NBA superstar formerly known as Ron artest. 4- sometimes yours truly has to go to YouTube one of the best inventions in history to avoid several things in our present time that I really cannot make myself like and that specifically includes sports and More specifically wrestling but let me tell you exactly what I mean by all that... --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

En nuestra opinión el conflicto entre Israel y Palestina está exponiendo no solamente los abusos que se están cometiendo en Gaza sino también la hipocresía política y religiosa de diferentes líderes en el mundo. Hablaremos de eso y también hablaremos de un comentario hecho por un político latinoamericano que ha despertado las redes sociales y el porqué de los esfuerzos que serán nulos de traer la estadidad a Puerto Rico --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

We see the hashtags on social media! It's either I stand with Israel or I stand with Palestine and honestly we stand by nothing more than the end of this nonsense. In our opinion both sides need to reach strong compromises and respect each other but is it going to happen? We're going to talk about that and also we discuss a disturbing trend in sports in America especially the game of baseball --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

La situación en Gaza es desesperante. En esta nueva edición de la Intifada no sabemos si esto es un movimiento político de Netanyahu o si es oportunismo de parte de Hamas. Lo que si es cierto es la falta de entendimiento y empatía por Israel y Palestina. También, Ricardo Rosello retorna a la política de Puerto Rico pero para lo que va a cabildear es algo que honestamente es casi imposible --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

To be perfectly honest and Frank some people wonder if this new conflict between Israel and Palestine was created by Benjamin Netanyahu or Hamas for reasons beyond fairness and justice. My question is do people really care about the bigger picture or do they need someone to cheer for because of their twisted political or religious reasons? We will talk about that and also the misconceptions that people have created for no reason about the covid-19 vaccines and about the whole thing if we're going to be honest --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

My friends, do you want extra evidence that politics in the U.S.A. have become WWE?

What's happening in the Republican Party is getting my attention.  I know, I know, we have many other problems: un-vaccinated individuals, police brutality and attacks against police, Asian hate, etc.  However, what is happening in the GOP has a potential to create an effect beyond their secret reunions.  Let me tell you why I think that way... --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

La reacción de los astros de Houston las críticas de los fanáticos demuestra una sensitividad de parte de los atletas profesionales que o no existía o era muy bien escondida en tiempos anteriores y eso nos tiene pensando si esto es un resultado de la época en que vivimos o si es una reacción generacional o sea es esta generación más joven demasiado sensitiva a diferencia de otras pasadas generaciones? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

It looks very clear cut, right?  Cop misuses his force, creates an unnecessary death, is found guilty, so that's it,right?  It's more complicated than that, as you'll see in this episode of Real Life is Fake.  Plus the reason behind the Gates' divorce.  It's got to do with someone who was apparently suicided   --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message

In the city of Philadelphia there is an interesting election about to take place that is going to decide whether the incumbent or the Republican Challenger will be the next district attorney.

I want to be clear on something: the United States has done a lot to correct the wrongs done in the past but right now there is a segment of people and leaders that continue to deny the realities of systemic racism and most of this is coming from the right but the left also has an attitude of playing with racial feelings. This is why my friends I'm hard on the right because right now they are passing legislation that is demeaning to minorities but neither side is to be trusted in my humble opinion and I want to tell you why... --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kenrick-rampersad/message
