>> techniques that had nonbeen authorized were abhorrent, and rightly should be reputeuated by all. >> the man in charge of the c.i.a. defends methods while saying some went too far. >> further consideration on this motion is postponed. >> a bill to fund the federal government hits another roadblock in the house of representatives and time is running out to avoided a shut down. >> and one of the biggest storms to hit the west

coast in years. leaves tens of thousands of people without power. just hours left until the government shuts down unless congress pass as bill to fund it and now a new front has opened in this heated battle. congressional leaders said they had reaches an agreement that would avert a shut down, that was two days ago but decide a debt line, the house has still not voted on the bill what is happening to the deal that apparently is no longer a deal. >> tony, here is what stands between now and a government shut down at midnight. a $1.1 trillion spending package that was hammered out by leaders of both

parties but it has gotten a lot of push back. despite calls from leadership to get it passed. >> we, workerred through this process, in a bipartisan way, and i do expect it to pass. but, listen, if we don't get finished today, we will be here until christmas. >> it even won backing from the white house, it includes funds to fight ebola, and the group known as isil and includes a small raise for members oif military. supportsesident supports the pack sag, and would sign it. >> but the devil is in the details and as they dug into the specifics of the bill, they found plenty of reasons to fight it. >> so we are in the house, being blackmailed to vote for inappropriates bill. >> staging a revolt, upset over provisions to

raise campaign contribution limits by big donors. block the voter pass legalization of marijuana in d.c., and roll back provisions of the dog frank financial reform giving banks more freedom to hedge their risks. covered by taxpayers. >> this is about reckless behavior, it is about a give away to the. >> laest financial institutions in this country and it is up to us to say no. >> and not just democrats are upset, some conservatives say the bill green light tuesday many white house priorities including obama care, and the action on immigration reform. >> we need to be able to hold funding back for who knows what else he is going to do. >> the republicans has hoped to gain the support by only funding the department of homeland security and immigration policy through february by then, the g.o.p. will control both bodies and will have more leverage to fight the president.

now, democrats say this is the moment they can use their own leverage, and push back on republicans to get some of these items they don't like in the bill, the white house is working the phones trying to get more to sign on, because they are concerned democrats will lose leverage in the coming weeks. to give you a sense of what is going on here, republicans and democrats are huddled behind closed doors figuring out their next moves. now there is one hail mary. they could mass a spending bill just to get over the hump of midnight, that could keep the government funded until next week, or even january, but all now it is up in the air. >> my goodness, this is just stunning. libby for us, thank you. al jazeera political correspondent joins us live from los angeles now, and michael, what exactly is going on in washington right now. can you sort this out for me. >> i can put nit layman's

terms it is a blame game, they are trying to figure out who will be blamed should the government shut down. i have word now that dennise mcdonough, who is the chief of staff at the white house is on capitol hill, huddling with democrats they have sent their man, you will remember former president bush well now the white haws has sent their bus man up, and that's what is going on there as well. so they are trying to do the blame game, that they wrangled with, but there's nothing being exchanged here. nobody giving any ground. no ground being seeded so it is hard to see how that will happen so does he really want it to pass. >> well, i think that he does not, because he does not like a lot of the language in it, but i do -- and this is of course just my opinion, i do think that the white house wants to be very

careful as to not be seen as the source of the government shutting down and already they have alerted some of the government businesses to be prepared for shut down tomorrow. it doesn't mean it will happen. i think he would rather sign this bill than have the government shut down or the white house be blamed. >> is it possible? >> a shut down? what do you think. >> it is very possible because of the groups at play right here, that's what makes it possible it means it for very very possible, the conservatives on the republican side, and a lot of these democrats you just listened to senator warren, they are not happy with the roll back, and the campaign finances has former speaker up in arms so it is a little bit troubling. so there is a real possibility, and michael shore for us, michael good to see you, thank you. now to the. dr.i.a.'s defense of it's

interrogation. that he used inhumane methods to interrogate detainees. he says some officers used unauthorized techniques and says it is a possible to know ever for sure if the problem or the program led to any useful intelligence, mike joins issued live now from the white house, and mike, john sought to defend an agency really under fire right now. >> that's right and the agency is hit by outrage, called for accountability, made a rare and dramatic play a press conference right at ceo headquarters up the river here it was an effort to defend his agency and sure up morale at a beleaguer place, the cia. yes, some interrogations at times went too far. >> i consider them abhorrent, and i will leave to others how they may want to label those.

but for me, it was something that is certain hi regrettable. >> but he dispute as major finding of the report. sha the information retained yielded no actionable information. >> there was useful intelligence, very useful valuable intelligence that was obtained from individuals who had been at some point subjected to d.i.t.s. but on one key question, would they have learned the same information for prisoners had not been subject to harsh methods. detainees who are subjected to d.i.t.s subsequently provided information, that our experts found to be useful and valuable. >> yet, he stopped short of caming the techniques were essential. >> there was no way for some to know, whether some information that was obtained from an individual that has been

subjected could have been obtained through other means it is an unoble fact. >> the remarks come as they hit by harsh criticism. outgoing democratic senator on the senate floor wednesday. >> and the c.i.a. today willfully provide interactive information and remiss represent the ethicacy in order the c.i.a. is lying. >> since the reports release, president obama has kept a low profile. >> mr. president, do you agree -- >> rushing out shouted questions in an event senatorred on foreign trade. >> we are talking about exports, thank you. >> part of the goal buck up morale among agency employees. >> c. i.a. officers operating in very very dangerous places and are

doing that in behalf of their fellow americas. so there is some concern. >> as called for accountability mount, he was clearly uncomfortable with all the scrutiny for an agency comfortable of staying in the shadows. >> i think there's more than enough transparency, that has happened i think it is over the top. >> >> and one other thing that he said on the osama bin laden raid he says that some people, some detainees who were subject to the so called enhanced techniques did provide information that was useful for the operation to go up against osama bin laden but still, not drawing that direct cause and effect .

>> there are conflicting reports on with he died from heart failure or was killed in clashes with israeli soldiers. more now from jerusalem. >> is and disagreement on how he died is increasing tension between israeli governments. but the popular -- a man described as an officer willing to fight in the trenches that his soldiers. partly because he spent years in israeli prisons. >> . >> for the first time in a decade, the palestinian government buried a senior member killed in an altercation with

israelis. >> he received full hon nones from the military, and knew attendance by the entire palestinian cabinet. >> the president led prayers. and a massive crowd followed his body toward the cemetery. >> they drove think streets to celebrate a man that often directed these chantz. >> they shouted slogans of support, and held posters that declared our minister became a martyr. he was surrounded by informal security. and an hon nor guard who led the crowd and escorted him for more than a mile. >> he was opopular figure, not only because he was so senior in the government, but because he led protests. the last proted he led

and his death were caught on camera. yesterday they demonstrated against land, and as always, he was in the front the border police eyewitnesses told al jazeera police struck him in the chest, before wrapping his hands around his neck. minutes later he began to feel faint. >> an israeli medic administered first aid, but by the time they carried him to an ambulance, and placed him on a gurney, he would never regain consciousness. >> an autopsy this morning showed no doubt he was murdered he was executed by the centrally army. >> but the israeli doctor says he died of a heart attack, even if it was in part caused by israeli mis. >> this is caused by stress.

we found some bruises. >> the disagreement came as no surprise to the people who helped bury him, who believed that he was unique. >> why is this that particularly effecting so many people. he was always on the front line. >> . >> they will meet to discuss exactly how to respond. they are threatening to stop security coordination with israeli military. >> they made before they expected more confrontation. more crucially not enough leadership, to turn the

death into a trigger. into etch larger confrontation. >> nick chef ron reporting for us, northern california is being hit right now with a massive storm that is being called the worst in five years. 60 miles per hour uprooted. >> that videotape. >> there's a lot of people walking around, that is one of the most dangerous things because those manholes become uncovered and they can't see it, below them, and so a lot of people can be falling into that, so don't walk into these waters unless you have to. this is the storm off the western coast know we

call this the pineapple express, take a look at where this is streaming from. those are the hawaiian islands, that's why we call tut pineapple express. it drawls all that moisture. we are seeing the very heavy rain continue, and it has been fairly stationary over the area over the last six hours. this is the radar, you can see san francisco being hammered right now, seeing a lot of water and the higher elevations we have seen wind gusts well over 130 miles per hour. across that area, so we are looking at flash flooden wayings in effect, across most of the region as well as we are seeing blizzard warnings here in the higher elevations and that's also including the pass coming from reno over to -- >> the pineapple express huh. >> it sounds much tamer than it is. >> thank you. people are posting images of the effects of this storm on social media right now. a look at that ever the us. >> yeah, tony, the power outages have been causing all sorts of set backs.

power line completely down, here is a picture from the other end, completely smashed in. also, a business owner he has to prior open his elevator where the power went out, they were trying to figure out if they were in between floors or on a floor. >> this is john coty, he tweeted this out. picture of his little kids having breakfast by candlelight. >> the montgomery station was closed with no power, and some people because school is out, because there's been so much flooding they have been using canoes to get around. >> coming up, oil is as cheap as it has been in years. we are taking a look another the big picture,

and how of that filtering down to yourens thes.

police have removed barricades and posters from the main site, but as sara clark now reports many say they will continue the fight. >> the protestors had plenty of warning, and as the deadline looms, some dismantled their tents and left, but others vowed to stay until the end. we are really angry, this never ends. >> protest leaders formed a sit in, legislatures joined the. capain, vow tock remain peaceful, but came to confront police when the time came. we will take

responsibility but we also want to send out a signal that the struggle for democracy will not end, we h continue to push. they moved in barricades that blocked the highway were removed, signed were taken down, students stood back and watched. >> protestors came prepared for confrontation, but the clear up was slow and peaceful. the only arrests were those who refused to abandon the sit in. this may be the end for the student occupation, but protest leaders say it, has the start of their push for greater voting rights for the 2017 election. >> our ideas. after this site is cleared there's still one more protest area remaining.

it's about one kilometer from here, in the busy. the day on when they will move in, be uh the protest groups have vowed to continue their occupation. >> half what they were six months ago. prices fell below $60 a barrel, now in june, a price per barrel hit $107. the steep drop has strained oil depend economies like russia, iran, and venezuela. she is a visiting researcher, and professor at georgetown university, she specializes in foreign policy, good to see you, thank you for your time. >> hi, tony. >> oil prices are falling is this the best thing to happen to the global economy since we came out of the recession? >> so on the supply side, sure, tremendous things are happening mainly

outside of north america from the united states and canada, on the demand side, something is also happening and that mean as drop in demand in a number of countries, japan, china, germany to name a few, and that probably means recession in those places and global economy, those waves of recession are also going to effect countries like the united states, other places and granted the united states is weathering this best among any countries in the globe right now, and because of also the oil production is also helping with the balance of payments, but this -- it does say something about the slide in demand in the economy. so you are saying some restriction in the economies there in japan and china, so -- why won't opec cut supply?

pacicly when we talk about opec, the only country with the kind of capacity. >> saudi arabia. >> right. >> saudi arabia would have to make a cut between 1,000,002,000,000 a day. it would be the only country to take the losses well everybody else would enjoy a free ride. iran, venezuela. so it is difficult for there to be coordinated action. opec today has less than 40%, they are a minority of the world global oil production, so don't have the power to influence. here is the thing this' kind of a booming oil shale business. they could jeopardize --

in the u.s. domestic production. >> . >> things are quite different, a lot of the oil that's been produced is associated with natural gas, so it is -- these -- it is going to happen if you are producing the gas and oil, a lot has already paid for their licenses their rigs they won't stop the production, just because the oil prices have gone down they are getting a lot more efficient, so i think all of these -- the theories that they are trying to close down the united states, i think we are looking for a lot more conspiracies than are there. >> i tell you who is looking for a conspiracy here is the president of iran. who said i am going to play it for you then i

have a question for you. >> we have no doubt this drop in oil prices is not a normal decrease, a portion of this could be related to global economic issues or recession, but it is a politically orchestrated move and a conspiracy against the interest of the region, muslim people and the muslim world, it will only benefit others not muslims. >> what do you think of that? he is weaving a bit of a conspiracy at least dangling out there, what do you think. >> again, it is supply and demand, two different forces. this period isn't so special, oil prices are about cycles, they -- what is really different about oil is two things one is the most volatile commodity, it changes more than any other commodity, and second is the lag time. if there is an article about why eating tomato

prevent alzheimerss the market can react quickly. oil it takes about seven years. either way for the oil to reaction. of time this happens we think this is really special and unique. i don't think there's much -- i think there was a strategy in the world on oil, but it is not something that can be controlled. >> the prices can continue. >> the oil price because it is a bit almost impossible. >> that thought about a

little glitch in the market, or some sort of cup, but something that is more fundamental, both rises supplies way beyond expectation and dive and demands. major markets. so probably again with all the -- all the difficulty in the precise term, this is something that will stay in for a while. again, it is not all good news. sure it is good when you go to fill up the much, it is something that is nice news for families right before the winter holidays. that they can feel something good, but the also have to remember again, with oil prices what goes up comes down, and the opposite if people are going out now buying larger vehicles this is not going to stay forever either. >> brenda, appreciate it.

ahead of the cia says they have broken ruling in interrogation, and have not been punished, accountability for the brutal methods the use of catons to fight against isil recruiters. working to create alternative heros.

c.i.a. director adamantly defending his agency today against allegations it mistreated detainees during the bush administration. the c.i.a. was unprepared to conduct the interrogation program, and that most officers associated with the program did their jobs well. in a limited number of cases agency officers used techniques that had not been authoritied and were rightly should be

reputeuated by all. and we fell short when it came to holding some officers accountable for their mistakes. >> let's take a deep dive into the issues he raises and a former military interrogator, he was also part of the senate intelligence committee staff yes working on the initial stages of this report back in 2009. it is good to see you, thank you for being on the program today, so director brennan, i want to dive right into this, maybe one of the more contentious points. he camed that detainees that had undergone enhanced interrogation, provided information, you know where. going here, that was used for in the search of osama bin laden, now senator dianne 19 says that definitively proved that enhanced techniques the report proves this, did not lead to bin laden.

where do you come down on this. >> i am with the senator. pleasure. >> . >> in the c.i.a. actually said as much, in hearings following the raid. in 2011. they credited the interface that their interrogation practices for that find. the report shows clearly that was not the case. >> detainees who we knew, prior to -- first of all, the first detainee to ever even mention him was -- didn't happen until 2003. the most accurate information came from a

man named hosul goal who was cooperative prior to going into custody he was arrested by foreign government, he was cooperative with the military, which was described as drinking tea, and conversational, wasn't even shackled and he was described as singing like a tweetty bird, but when the c.i.a. took him into custody, they felt that he was insufficiently afraid of being in the u.s. custody they shaved his head, and amied several enhanced interrogation techniques he never again gave intelligence on carrying med. >> so -- they shut him down. >> so michael, look, i am trying to wrap my mind around this, trying to confuse us with this line, it was unoble whether or not the techniques were effective

in halting terror attacks and keeping the country safe, senator feinstein rebutting that, she says c.i.a. says unoble if we could have gotten the spell out of the way, studies show it is knowable. they had info. >> yeah that's right. every interrogation has reports. so it is knowable. what was or was not made that this interrogation. it is knowable whether or not the information corroborates over intelligence or doesn't. what i think the director is doing, is trying to say that there was intelligence they gave us, and it doesn't tell us when, he provided a lot of intelligence prior to being subjected to e.i.t.s.

and than he didn't, but he would consider a detainee that had e.i. thes used against him, so for that purposes it sounded like it works but in fact, in his case, they shut him down. >> in preparing this report, and that a fair credit civil. >> well, he also ripped into what he called the partisan aspect of it. >> right. >> actually, the this was originally a bipartisan effort, it was voted on, the investigation was launched in a bipartisan basis. it was undertaken as a bipartisan effort, with both republicans staffers and democratic staffers as part of the team. and it was even voted for release by bipartisan effort. during the scope of the

investigation, this was another investigation from the department of justice. i think it is very suspicious, or not suspicious, but unlikely, that the cia would have allowed anyone to be interviewed at that time similar my because there was the possible of incrimination. so i think the staff did the best they could, they used statements that were provided in interviews to the inspector general, and were included in the inspector general report, they used interviewed that were reported for the senate arm city report and of course they used emails and other memos to try to capture as best they could, from their own documentation their position. >> last one for you, where do we go from here? what -- that's not the question, should there -- do you think there will be any legislation that comes out of this. >> tony, i certainly hope

so. that's where i think the real value of this report lies. we need -- this is a dark period for us, as a country. and oversight is so important, it is the only thing that keeps our covert and clandestine services that are done in our name, in check. director brennon mentioned that this was an aspect of our past, a feature of our past, the only thing keeping eight feature of our pass is an executive order from president obama. the next president could change that and have the. dr.i.a. or another organization of government do this again. we need a law that makes this absolutely illegal. so that it can never be repeated in our name, and this report will inform that legislation. >> a former military interrogator. good to have you on the program. >> thank you, tony.

>> an al jazeera correspondent has been killed in syria. he died while covering battles in the southwest part of the one. they were killed in the same area in recent days, he reported for our arabic network daring and courageous. the u.s. and the allies have been pushing for months to curb the recruitment efforts. the group has been drawing men and women from across the globe, now some artists are using cartoons to fight back. >> tony, we spoke to two artists one is using comic books and the other is using an animated cartoon, they say that isil has gained supporters so they are trying to counter the group by creating alternative heros.

genuinely -. >> they try to convince young muslims around the world to choose peace. more constructive ways to support the innocent people of syria, in fact try to go out there and fight to support some video game that you feel you have to reenact in real life on a condition that we didn't want to reveal his identity. >> the hard line messages. >> many young muslims. >> -. >> i wanted something that was going to be able to counter that and be as appealing. >> so does solomon. >> so this is the story of -- the first issue we worked on. >> the 36-year-old began created comics in 2006, after a child in minnesota where he was studying asked him if the

arab world had it's own super man, students told him al quaida leaders osama bin laden were their heros. so he gave them his comic books for free. i asked them the same question, and that's when they are talking about my comic books. there's a huge need for heros. >> including this one based on a real life jordanian daneian women's counter for error itch unit. >> this is powerful and important story to fight the narrative of ma soldierny in the middle east. >> he speaks openly about the power of these books, sometimes at great risk. a few years ago, extremists attacked him, but he says he will keep creating new characters

and he says in episodes are on the way. the cartoons have received tens of thousands of hits on youtube. the other artist told me that most of his comic books are in arabic, but he is working on getting them translated into english. >> an alternative initiative that can be really powerful. >> yeah, roxanne that, appreciate it. thank you, ohio place add moratorium, it ends in january, and when that happened ohio lawmakers want to keep details of executions hidden from the public, media, even the courts.

john henry reports. >> it was father lawrence hummer's first execution. and he knew something was going horribly wrong. >> he after two minutes began to gag audibly. and hit rally gag, you could see his stomach begin to bloat, this was monstrous, and it was contemptible. >> the he that will injection lasted nearly half an hour. it was ohio's fourth botched execution in recent years. european drug makers now refuse to supply the toxic cocktail used for executions, some doctors refuse to participate. so ohio's legislature has come up with a plan that is popular in the state capitol. make the details secret. >> it's deserving of the most transparentsy.

not the least. and it is already a very secretive process to begin with. more secrecy is the thing here, not more transparency. legal analyst are calling it the most extreme execution measure of any penalty in the u.s. if it is signed into law, almost nothing about the state killing would be accessful to the public, not the drugged used not who made them, not the identities of the doctors in the room and unlike laws in other states it would bar even the courts from knowing what happens. politician say don't blame them, this is what they need to end the lives oif most dangerous criminals. >> the whole purpose of this legislation, is to meet the requirements of

the attorney general, so that kit be done in the most efficient, and humanitarian way. five minutes. >> minutes later he said he had to rush to a et mooing. he says he knows why politicians have been so illusive. >> they are trying to make it'ssy to execute people in the state of ohio. by hiding the information, they are afraid somebody may know what they are doing, that's wreaks to me of sort of secret society. that i don't want to be a part of. >> if the measure pass it is law could become tied up in court a long line of men continue to wait on their fate. >> ten states including

texas, missouri, have some sort of confidentially law and man who jumped over the white house fence and made his way inside has been found confident to stand trial. a judge today accepted a report saying that he is mentally competent. a christian university admits it blamed the victims for being raped the new report from bob jones university, is next. and growing concerns about super bugs, disease, that become resistant to drugs jake ward explains how bacteria are getting better by fighting back.

a new survey says only a small number of campus sexual assault victims ever go to the police. the department of justice released a report that exams why rape victims don't report their assault. 80% never report the incident to police. 26 believe the incident is a special matter, and is not important enough to bring to the attention of police. 20% fear retaliation if they report the assault. this as a christian university admitted today that it has failed to uphold it's core values. a new report says bob jones university told victims they were to blame for the abuse. the school also told them not to report it because doing so would damage their church and university. and investigation was launched in 2012 after several women came forward claiming the school failed to investigate their assault and sara is poll hing the

story, and sara was there anything in this report that is different from what you originally uncovered. >> no, not necessarily. really what it does -- it validated what we found out when we did our survey. he of course ad me if i had been smoking pot, and i started to get this almost dizzy feeling and then he asked if i had been impure with this man, had i had relations with this man, and i kept telling him no to all these questions but he ethey shall didn't believe me, or hadn't heard, he wasn't going to help me, and he said we have to find the sin in your life that caused your rape, and i just ran. i ran out the steps of the building, and he just confirmed my worst nightmare. it was something i had done. it was something about me. it was my fault.

>> boy, what other recommendations came from the report. >> so the -- they want to have him removed permanently. >> yeah. >> also offering free tuition to symptom of these students that dropped out. >> sara, appreciate it. thank you for following up on that, for more on this story, tune in tonight to america tonight, right here on al jazeera america that's 9:00 p.m. eastern, can have pacific sometime. trials of an ebola vaccine are being stopped after tests subjects experienced side effects four people in the switzerland case study say they had mild pain in their hands and feet after receiving the vaccination. this is currently supposed to be the most promising potential vaccine to prevent ebola. tests will start again in january. >> drug resistant super bugs can kill an extra 10 million people a year, if they are not stopped stronger versions of the e. coli bacteria already kill some 50,000 people in the u.s. and europe each year, and as many

time passes that bacteria is getting better at fighting back. >> pack tier yeah are becomenning resistant to the drugs that we use to kill them in the united states alone, at least two many people become infected each year. and at least 23,000 people die as a direct result of those that is a massive problem, one that dwarfs other more physical health threats and there are many factors that can attribute to the factor. the fact that drug companies aren't really making new antibiotics, it is expensive, and time consuming to create new drugs and making pharmaceuticals is a business, and so this group is hoping to somehow convince leaders to incentivize that business, but there are a host of oh factors that make bacteria ever harder to kill. they are becoming less effective, because as they are used in greater numbers of people, and

animals they are getting more and more opportunity to develop resistence. the more the bacteria has a chance to practice on the drugs the more they see them, the better they get at resisting their effects. for one thing, there's a basic my understanding of the role. there are two type of infections viral, and bacterial infections. antibiotics only kill bacterial. 39% believed that antibiotic drugs killed viruses, might kill the cold and flu, and research shows that doctors all too often prescribe drugs for infections too, that means that the drugs are being administered in people who don't need them, and that's giving the bacteria a chance to adapt, this is a big problem, antibiotics are given in a blanket way to huge numbers of farm

animals to help keep them healthy. we are talking about millions of animals. but in large groups through their feed, and their water, that also gives the bacteria a shot at developing a resistence on a massive scale. what we are looking at here is a crisis of management. we are using drugs too much, and sometimes the wrong drugs entirely, not just going to be a matter of business incentives or livestock, or limiting prescriptions all of it will be necessary to keep up from growing a bug that we do not have the means to fight. jake ward for us, a new app that tells people how to handle being pulled over by police, it is called driving while black, and it is causing a lot of drove. just ahead, negotiations in washington over keeping the government funded have been a mess, we will give you the points andcking points

consequence. hoar is a look by the numbers for you, there is more than 5 trillion pieces of blast nick the oceans that amounts to nearly 270,000 tons that is enough to fill more than 38,000 garbage trucks. it is an app aimed at avoiding tense confrontations it is called driving while black. >> tony, the app will provide information on how to deal with police when a motorist is pulled over. now, this app was developed by two portland lawyers, they hope it will improve safety and accountability at traffic stops. the reality is black people tend to experience a disproportional level of discrimination at traffic stops. motivated by unconscious or conscious bias.

>> strong emotions and stresses by drivers and police, can quickly escalate traffic stops into deadly encounters. >> and the developers told me, users will be able to notify friends when they have been pulled over, they will also be able to record the encounters put mainly, they hope to educate on their rights. and the app is due out later this month. i am mad the app is even needed and jacksy says this app is timely, but unfortunate, it is even necessary, they say i can't believe i am considering getting that driving while black app. if you are wondering about the time, the developers told me, one of them came up with the idea years ago, it's launch happens to come on the heels oif recent protest, even though it is called driving while black, it is something anyone can use. >> i think you are right about that, appreciate it, thank you, see you tomorrow, that is all of
