FULL SHOW: World Bank warns of ‘extreme poverty’ in 2021

With just 26 days until the US presidential election, politicians, celebrities and social media networks are encouraging people to vote. But several states have reported problems with mail-in voting ahead of Election Day. RT America’s Rachel Blevins reports. Then Medea Benjamin, co-founder of CodePink, weighs in. Meanwhile, after 20 years of people rising out of poverty, the World Bank now says 150 million people could fall into what they classify as “extreme poverty” by the end of 2021 because of the pandemic and the associated recessions. Former UK MP George Galloway discusses. Plus, Disney is launching “Meant to Be,” a literary distribution line that re-imagines classic fairy tales and adds a contemporary spin for adult audiences. Rick Sanchez, host of “The News with Rick Sanchez,” dives in.
