the twenty fourteen is out on capitol hill lawmakers and the dragging their feet when it comes to finding the defence department yesterday announced an agreement. so what's the new nba and what's been left out he's now on that hat. and what's this on the prize in the door and growing income inequality is forcing families out of their homes as a result the big apple it seemed the most homeless children. since the great depression. more on these dire economic conditions

sheriff deputies charged with the hills in los angeles county eighteen sheriff deputies are being accused of abuse of local residents. now it looks like the jailers might end up being jailed and souths an in depth look at a fifth grader michelle a fan it's easy it's summer time i've wanted to be seen on your day that we are watching our tea. mom and lawmakers that come to an agreement on the latest version of the nba or the national defense authorization bill. but the clock ticking down until the house and turns for the holidays this friday meters of the senate and house armed services committee's work the deal to move forward with a bill that will fund the us military next year. the twenty fourteen bill will optimize five hundred and fifty two billion dollars in national defense planning and nearly

eighty one billion for overseas contingency operations. yesterday i attended a press conference in which the leaders of those committees expressed confidence that the bill would be passed into time however it did not pass there are a number of extensions that are set to expire. those in the calm that paid hard to do keep a special paper nuclear qualified service members enlistment bonus is incentive pay retention bonuses and more. according to senator carl levin. monday on finding the military passing this bill would have huge implications for gitmo detainee is and for soldiers who are victims of sexual assault. earlier i spoke with former congressional attorney mark levine. i first asked him if he could explain why there is such a rush to pass this bill before the end of this legislative session. for some of this is one of the few absolute must pass bills in washington this is actually the least productive congress in american history no coach has passed two bills to make it in twenty thirteen but doing it a must pass bill is cuz

the constitution provides that there's no standing army in united states that may surprise people given that no trains is today. the fowler to acquire appropriations bills. we passed every two years of army cease to exist that means they're going to pass this bill one way or another right. why is it that some lawmakers are saying that this is going to add a lot of things are going to expire if this is not taking care of before the holiday anyway that really the case scores is something that they could possibly take up in january on a comeback they will pass this bill. i dated a guy in my mind they will pass this night they will not allow people to lose come back to it and convinced that many many things that don't work in congress is on those things they actually will work out some agreement to do so for whatever that's under the provisions of the spell for some all get out there isn't happy with that let's take a listen first to what senator carl levin had to say the bill basically takes half of what we did in the senate. and yes that is to give flexibility

the president to transfer detainees from guantanamo the third country. it maintains the prohibition on transferring detainees here for trial in detention. i still like these that half of them are going to be transferred out they can go back to third party countries i e the many blessing that this could be the beginning of that and forget now in fact all that was merely standing in the way as president obama you know closing this town there is a pedigree might now be able to still have to already been cleared for transfer to other countries that may have been transferred as a mom is out this evening there was a conflict and to summon back and going to engage in activities that happen for someone in the release of the torch to be much more than half friday cleared another thirty five or so i appear for trial and in the real trouble it's about forty eight who have been deemed it neither able to be transferred north able to be tried there in this indefinite detention situation which i would argue is completely not in the ca sixty nine states but this

was set up under torture the bush it was inherited by president obama and congress has prevented from dealing with it the way to die in the men's hair like this the view of the trial is not allowing the one thing that are sticking with us around allowing these people to come to the united states had to be in prison he or to be in our sent it to stand for trial here. so how can he really. policy wise even get around that obstacle. how would you be able to post right now i don't think you can instead sending the college has prevented him as an obama came in his very first year she's going to close guantanamo bay within a year and in congress passes legislation basically preventing him from doing so so for all the criticism of obama for not shutting down it really is congress' prevent him from doing that seems like it's going be a key sticking point while i was not about all sought military because this was undoubtedly one of the most controversial issues to come up this year. there was a proposed amendment by the center chris and don't i'd usually rather than to let brandon also won by the center clear mccaskill those amendments or not i and my sister is a nurse him but there were some other

measures can you talk about the best medication children's bill would basically take the prosecution central salt away from military commanders and only six rows all those prosecuted the court's decision if a civilian jury in the military to special laws to allow the commander to weigh in and a lot of victims of abuse and it's not fair the commander may be friends the perpetrator and a lot of social software punish so they didn't get that bill through though it's a job and will propose that next year. they did however achieve significant half measures out the for example the jury convict someone special so they can be overruled by military commander that person must go the perpetrator must be just honorably discharged and be the victim can be an independent counsel and the cases that are not brought me are reviewed by civilian review board to make sure that there should be brought other things that you can retaliate as a cancer victim you can't be harmed them in in the military and assessed actually patients that mean even the most important. you can basically accused people crimes that occurred five ten twenty

years ago write some significant changes and didn't want to see if it is taken up next year. i am classy contact you about something interesting i asked a question the very end of the press conference about a section ten twenty one which is the indefinite detention closet in the am sure you're familiar with it basically allows for the government to indefinitely detain any blind eye including american citizens who are associated even in the saddle with terrorism. i asked at one end that the questions on but by btn is the one who i responded in this zodiac say to me. we go back over and tell you that what we have in the bill. will be an improvement over what we've already passed in the house and in the senate committee and it was an overwhelming vote. i think they will be up and it'll be okay with that address people's concerns thank you very much. we need to go to the press. thank you i wrapped it up really quickly and dramatically we

dive my toddler is an overwhelming vote he's right about that it has support from democrats and republicans i would like the villa defence to put the coffee tonight states which was carried around with because the constitution says the radiant heat is corpus the right to challenge or imprisonment shall not be suspended except in case of rebellion or invasion. this is rebellion assistant agent george bush i get i think wrongly that because guantanamo bay is not the nice if america even though it's the long term and definitely spread out which is why i think its base the local been there for a weekend of fall that auspicious time of may i've never agreed with that. i think the limit on base under our control and i don't think we can hold people indefinitely there but obviously congress elise disagreed with me. maybe the courts will find four chalets seems like it's going to be a mainstay of the sack and a bell going forward if it's an unfortunate run at a time marked the dean former congressional attorney think he'll take you there. and so your purse is calling out some news organizations have refused to publish his recent story on the obama administration's case for war with syria. curses up with

their prize winning journalist to accuse the obama administration of having called cherry picked intelligence as it relates to serious on his twenty first template ask so what i heard the story with his usual magazine the new yorker or the washington post. rt political commentators and zach says moore. this is a pulitzer prize winning investigative journalist seymour hersh has been exposing us military and intelligence panel and vietnam. he's got a new skill this one. alleging that the obama administration cherry picked intelligence reports. we allege that syrian president bush or al assad was behind the august when it first chemical weapons attack near damascus published in the london review of books. kirsch argues. the obama administration failed to acknowledge something known to the u s intelligence community. syrian army is not the only party in the country civil war with access to sarah. first arizona said in the months before the attack the american intelligence

agencies produced a series of highly classified reports citing evidence that the elements for fraud. the a group affiliated with al qaeda had mastered mechanics of creating sharing and was capable of manufacturing it in quantity. gershwin or use when the attack occurred while mr should have been a suspect. but the administration cherry picked intelligence to justify a strike against a stop. the white house has called her shoes report simply false. as you'd expect they would never be clear her she doesn't know who carried out the chemical attack that night. he just knows that for the second time in a decade the president of the united states was willing to take the country to war. using intelligence that could be bought. i simply don't know who did watch this. there's no question my government does not. there's also no question that the american president that we don't have i voted for. it's a lot of good things about it was willing to go to war or one

of two missiles. syria without really having a case as knowing he didn't have much of the case but nurses report that originally appeared in the united states and overseas to the wonder of new books have it published where was extensively factor both the new workers in the washington post rejected her shoe store. yep that's the same washington post that right after colin powell made his case before the un and the view and he's in iraq back in two thousand parade read an editorial titled irrefutable. the editorial said. after secretary of state colin l powell her presentation united nations security council yesterday it is hard to imagine how anyone could doubt that iraq possesses weapons of mass destruction. and he offered a powerful new case that saddam hussein's regime has cooperated with the branch of the al qaeda organization that is trying to acquire chemical weapons and stage attacks in europe. don't bother looking for that article in the washington post archives. it's been

completely score up. curses story isn't just about intelligence cherry picking in manufacturing consent for war. it's about how the white house can get away with this stuff. because of the sad state of journalism in america. you can create a narrative which he did. you know the mainstream press is going to carry out the narrative. it's almost impossible r somewhere between mainstream newspapers will consistently supported the administration. this is after we had the good of the abuse scandal and everybody wanted to be on the team. then it's been this way that she wore her she actually became part of the story. again not the story of war but a story of how the media what the president get away with more disliked in iraq by silencing those who are speaking truth to power. two months ago. yes it was dangerously close to making the same it's taken me ten years ago when iraq with another warned syria has not worn the mainstream media outlet in united states was willing to seriously question

legitimacy of the administration's intelligence class unfortunately they still aren't willing to go washington sent stocks are too. and now it's another boy straight from syria mother and miss mary and the crow she came to the rt studio last night and had this to say about the plight of christians in syria. when the communication of abuse he didn't even see the attributes to the invention. because the data. they are on the bases. beacon for the relations of human rights and nobody seemed to be stood down because he had for a calm sense of fun events that come to studio to splitcoast and the mayonnaise in mind we either of the identity of the dpm and team display and some didn't and still couldn't keep the foot of the stupid concluding that his mom could do most of

correspondent costlier. and contrary to what many people believe the census still very much an epidemic here in united states. perhaps the greatest snapshot of that is new york city for poverty has just reached its highest levels since the great depression of the nineteen thirties. take a look at this this is a doubt by the department of homeless services and shows the number of people in your city to sleep in shelters every night as you can see that number has steadily increased since nineteen eighty three and act as of september of twenty thirteen there were about fifty two thousandfour hundred people in shelters at the sixty nine percent increase since just january of two thousand to over half of the most unfortunate is that a large number of those falling under the poverty line. now children. as you can see the number of children on the streets of new york has now exceeded twenty two thousand. it's a shocking number that was explored recently and in that new york times story as well and daily life of one eleven

year old homeless girl named a son. i was going to earlier by parties' on the stasi inter connected this conference a little bit more i first asked her to explain the condition that the sunny lives and and whether it's reflective of what other homeless kids are experiencing. follow me around the chalet and the answer is yes that is reflective of the staggering numbers of children that are going to homelessness as we speak. this particular day our time keith and mary and of peace the five partner on chronicling the life of this eleven year old girl who lives in that really did shovel the brooklyn shelter when that her parents and seven siblings she takes care of her baby. i'm not her babies her sister and her younger brothers and sisters that the conditions of the shelter are just they seem to mind blowing when you read about them because this is something that happens that is happening in the united states in york city one of the richest cities in the last. and yet sad is that my son rat infested out on shelter where

i just there's been allegations of sexual assault and sexual predators that have gone on accountable and if the struggles of this little girl is showing exactly what it is to be living a life like that. in this article are really pushing forward a new wave of debates surrounding child homelessness in the westlake and rightfully sad and twenty two thousand the highest number since the great depression a new workout we talked a little bit to your friends about what the meat of all this take a listen it's quite alarming that this economy picks up. that indicators getting to the works it could be hired to me like these and getting better that the beginning word says so it's like this that our money with this camp for two with anyone like ways of living and being the lead this is like another was pleased to be so may people can like go somewhere else besides the beach see the bigger cities in gilmore metropolis of arab areas instead of making other lads went by. the a's heart here

i'm an adult in this type of media mates and no cute so i can imagine families have anything in the one person at the top is been increasing its its share of more than its fair share. and of the people of the bottom ten to be completely left behind well i don't dare to get some more perspective on how bad it really into these numbers are hard to imagine and i vineyard times makes a good point but if not all that well with the children of the ark city were not to go into madison square garden which is a huge stadium in manhattan on as many as over forty eight hundred children would be left without a seat so i imagine that it's a staggering number that's that's really really scary to think about actually bought one doesn't seem to beat auckland and more about what is relief not to be behind these numbers what is behind this rapid increase in homelessness specifically for families. well let me know that what we had and the continuation of by increasing prices of course that meant that way and not very low on incomes and that the widening gap in experts

are saying this is likely to continue. so because the housing prices are going up and so many people are still unable to find work what we have and the situation where i as many as fifty two thousand people are in shelters every night in munich city and its twelve thousand people and the family talk thousand families in those families of children and the sad part really is backed up the children and a few than the ones we don't see and that you know they are the invisible bullets because it's you know you're not able to tell on the street which child is suffering and who is not sanded the numbers are that one in five children in the west are living in poverty currently and ending at times again goes on to say that this is the highest number in a developed nation i've said for armenia. i think a lot of people would be surprised to know that most of the larger meaning the growth of income inequality in the city to the policies of michael bloomberg data. you know we sox her to the staggering increase in homelessness after two thousand to reach a certain twenty i e mail came into power what exactly are

they referring to one of these policies. like an old phil from two thousand and eight the promises of god not by a staggering fifty percent so it's just add them to bring in the light from the bloomberg report says because he has been and just sat down for twelve years and he had he had been and is one of the richest people in the united states and thunder came ballerina back to this increase in the enormous size inequality gap kind of surface obviously had a lot to do with a financial crisis of two thousand and eight but also on the word implementing certain policies back in two thousand and four where he fed up with people sending me more self reliant and the provided the short term rent assistance to live to homeless people in york city hoping that this would pop and empower them to stand on top and sew up a lot of people are blaming bloomberg for the reason that also millions of dollars were spent in certain projects in york city where at the wilma smith clearly obviously continues to be a huge huge
