The Richie Allen Show

Richie is joined by Stephen Lendman and Hayden Hewitt. President Donald Trump has threatened to destroy Turkey's economy if the country goes "off limits" following his surprise decision to pull US forces out of north-eastern Syria. In a series of angry tweets, Mr Trump defended his move, which could open the way for Turkey to launch an attack on Kurdish fighters across the border. The withdrawal was heavily criticized even by Mr Trump's Republican allies. So is the US really pulling out of Syria. The brilliant journalist Stephen Lendman joins Richie from Chicago to discuss. www.stephenlendman.org New research on a small cohort of mice has suggested that long-term exposure to vaping liquids that contain nicotine could increase the risk of cancer. In the US last month, the CDC advised people to stop using vaping products, or e-cigarettes, regardless of whether they contain nicotine or marijuana. Some US states, most recently Massachusetts, have moved to ban vaping altogether until its health effects are better understood. Last month President Donald Trump said vaping was a "new problem", especially for children. Broadcaster and co-founder of liveleak.com Hayden Hewitt joins Richie to discuss this. Is there a sinister motive behind the all out attack on vaping? After all, nearly half a million people die from smoking each year in the US right? For more on Hayden go to www.triggerwarning.tv
