The US Ruling Class Cannot Contain China; Trump Clamps Down on Gitmo Detainees
Sara Montes de Oca checks in with the migrant caravan as 3,000 migrants reach the Mexican city of Tijuana. She talks to Allen Orr, Attorney at the American Immigration Lawyers Association, about the temporary border shutdown and its implications. Later, Sara reports on the failure of the 2018 APEC Summit to reach a joint communique due to the hostile U.S. trade war with China. Sheng Zhang, China Expert & Political Commentator, joins the show to discuss how China’s existence and sovereignty poses a threat to U.S. aims in the Asia-Pacific region. Finally, Rachel Blevins reports on the devastating effects of the U.S. Guantanamo Bay detention center, which has been criticized by the United Nations for torture. Former member of UK Parliament, George Galloway, tells Sara that Guantanamo Bay is land illegally occupied by the US in Cuba, and the so-called terrorists in the illegal detention center have never been charged with a crime.
