strongly opposes the action saying there should be no blind fulfilling economies markets did rebound but uncertainty over each of these precarious situations with me. now back to washington d.c. for more from there to report on the four hundred presence excuse me a percent increase in warrant less snooping on the u.s. internet traffic in the year president obama took office. it's time for show and tell on tonight's program now last time we interviewed an average american who expressed his anger towards congress via you tube and since that video has become a hit we want to know if more americans should be doing the same thing go to producer for treatment center to find out what you thought the best way for the typical american to have their voice heard by washington and the media was. there's a lesson to be learned from this guy jim garvin who we had on the show and he's an

average american who told the president over you tube on a mad as hell and i'm not going to take it anymore people can debate his politics and motivations you can't ignore a guy who pulls in over a million hits on you tube garvin decided to go viral or go home we asked her viewers if they had any other ideas scott believes a massive peaceful protest would do the trick april said vote and robert bennett you agree throw the bums out he said and vote only for a third party masons guys said create your own movement and block so you can trust mainstream media or corporate politicians to look out for regular americans regardless of your approach to me dr weil he summed it up this way the way to get heard in washington and by the media is by getting off your butts and standing up for what we believe it no matter what that may be so if there's one average citizen can voice his frustration with the government and get millions of hits what do you

think will happen if dallas and other ordinary people do the same thing and receive millions of hits a response do you think that will get the attention of washington in the media only could just be the start of something really bit. all right here's our next question for you tonight earlier we spoke about the riots happening in london one man has lost his life buildings homes cars shops have been looted and burnt stories are looking for cult. it's a one media outlet posted on their website prove useful to healthy off already find out who those who they are that makes us want to know what you think about that should the media cooperate and work with off already to track down the writers who can respond to us on facebook twitter and you tube and who knows the response just might make it on air. now the war against privacy it's no secret that the government has found a friend an internet service providers we discuss how countries all over the world including of the us have been playing with the idea of obtaining a personal data through common that latron a communications privacy act of one thousand nine hundred six allows federal law

enforcement to obtain that information without a warrant if they deem it necessary in emergency situations over what's considered an emergency is left to the discretion of federal law enforcement alone which makes a think about leaves a lot of room for abuse a rare safeguard placed within the patriot act back in two thousand and five made it necessary to record what information was shared as representative dan lungren put it i felt that some accountability is necessary to ensure that this off already is not being abused i don't believe on its face it is an abuse of section but i do believe that it could be subject to abuse in the future and therefore this allows us as members of congress to have an ability to track this on a regular basis well thanks to long foresight we've learned that law enforcement very well may have overstepped their bounds christophers ago it fell over the center for applied security research and a frequent guest on this show found some disturbing numbers when it came to the d.-o. g.'s warrantless surveillance tactics of the information obtained via the freedom

of information act which we should know took him almost a year to get going and found that there were seventeen emergency warrantless wire wiretaps by the d.o.j. in two thousand and six and two thousand and seven there were nine cases two thousand and eight there were seventeen cases but there were ninety one emergencies in two thousand and nine meaning that there was a four hundred percent increase in warrantless survey. by the d.o.j. all the course of one year now that a new employee over at the d.o.j. learned about this emergency claim why else could there be such a dramatic increase well let's keep in mind that there was a change of command that year in the oval office obama came to town so you have to wonder why the obama administration had so many more emergencies than their predecessors did it and as to going points out this data can be misleading because the problem is most likely much worse than it looks he doesn't even include the warrantless wiretapping requests from state and local levels of law enforcement only the requests from the department of justice so there could be massive use of

this emergency clause that we could have no clue about it's almost like somebody in the obama administration has decided that a lot more situations suddenly constitute an emergency it does not reflect very well on obama's already less than stellar record on civil liberties and it's just another example of the u.s. government using every trick in the book to spy on you without a warrant and do their very best to make sure that you never find out about it. now they're calling it the russian jersey shore twelve episode series on lifetime it's going to premiere this august eleventh called russian dolls and it takes place in brighton beach new york the largest russian american community to take a look and. watch people who are in america. we expect great service great food i'm not going to for was what you've got to be kidding me they can't be with you.

you will get this milkshake. when you go. looks a lot like the other reality t.v. shows out there big hair big characters and a lot of big jewels reportedly it's already causing some controversy with protest mail being sent to lifetime executives by politicians activists and community groups so why did such a big deal and who are these people anyway joining me from our studio in new york is. but it's owner of rasputin and star of the new reality show russian dolls premiering on the lifetime network this thursday and marina i want to thank you so much for joining us and like i said they're describing this as the russian version of the jersey shore new york's answer to the jersey shore is that how you describe it. or i don't live in what jersey shore i feel like ours so is so much more than jersey shore we're going to have a little bit of everything for everybody if you like the cards for family drama we have that if you want to what jersey shore for young people going out and having

a good time and we have that as well if you watch the housewives for drama between women we have a lot of that so i think our show is unique because in one show you have to reel four different shows combined into one. are and i'm just curious why why you yourself personally decide to be on the show because let me read some of the descriptions that they row in the casting call the questions were are you the russian snooki or the situation and are you a super outgoing and fun loving russian american that sometimes sneaks called what's good bimini and vodka from the fridge that represent you. know that it or i feel like this was the casting for younger characters like i said where mateo generational show we have kids in their twenty's we have me who is in my early thirty's we have my mother in law who is in her fifty's we have two of the cast members in their late forty's with you know grown families and their kids are

married off and have their kids so it's multi-generational it's a little bit of everything for everybody about a year and a half ago to creators of the show came to rest butin restaurant they heard a lot about the interest and they know that we have a beautiful environment wonderful food wonderful entertainment we have amazing group of people that comes to us every single weekend to porridge and they won the prize to be a part of the just to show this side of russian american community. now i'm just curious so did you do you personally think that you represent a big portion of the russian american community here in the u.s. would you want to teach you know americans about russian culture or is this you know to get on t.v. and be able to promote your restaurant. well to be honest with you i think that me personally i am russian american i was brought here when i was fourteen years old

so i grew up half in the russian and have in america so i am a perfect representation of what a russian american is i have both my russian culture and my american culture and this makes me a russian american now is that everybody else like me no. absolutely not i'm a unique character and one of eight main characters on the show every single one of us is different every single one of us has something else to bring to the t. ball we have families that we have young people looking for a lot of we have grown women call overdue raise families and now living for themselves so it's a little bit of everything and every age every category social status everybody will find something in our show that they can relate to it's just given to them from our perspective from russian american perspective so why do you think that some people are so angry about the fact that this program is going to exist like i

mentioned you know there were letters from activists and communities with them brighton beach and even politicians writing to lifetime trying to get this to never ever air. i think that people are ignorant they haven't seen it yet they're afraid of what could it be is that the nags are is the stories that the worse than jersey shore they're comparing us to things that are out there but we're very unique there is no show out there that has all of the things that we have we are three or four shows combined into one so that makes us very unique and again interesting for everybody as soon as the show each year is a lot of these politicians and a lot of these so-called community members they going to see that there is nothing who are a ball that we shouldn't be defending ourselves we have a right to exist we have a right to be on air there is not a thing in our show this is going to make us look worse than would any other group of people in america looks legs i feel like we have

a right to be here will prove them all wrong i think we're going to do a me and the ratings will be the proof so watch it every thursday on lifetime at ten thirty straight after project runway. you know i want to thank you very much for joining us and you know as a russian american myself i'm very interested in checking this out when it does finally air good luck with that thanks. thank you. now still to come tonight presidential candidates views on race and slavery are called into question yet again find out why and who it is in five full time war and then unhappy our facebook pages per president made more fallout over that scary michele bachmann photo on the cover of newsweek back in just a moment. this is a cable from the u.s. embassy in colombo to talk about here an apparent june seventh incident of

extrajudicial executions the military reported to the press that on that day that killed nine guerrillas in the destination by instructs you including you know and their cocoa to do the strongly suggest however that the nine were executed by the army and then dressed in military fatigues. explain how you know this kind of phenomenon where bodies are dressed up as guerrillas and presented as killed in action and this and this idea that you need to produce bodies actually encouraged paramilitary collaboration this is a cia document central intelligence agency they knew about these activities they knew they were happening they knew about links to paramilitary groups and yet. usaid continue to.

review the latest science and technology from. the future. the explosions were troubling.

ok. i did time for tonight's tool time award and tonight because to michele bachmann now we bash the right wing can got congresswoman and presidential candidate several times on this show but tonight she's just given us more firepower see michelle has a lot of a different view of most of the world than most people do and her stands on slavery issues well it's troubling to say the least if you don't believe me let me present some facts here when michelle made a few crazy comments of the founding fathers here in the u.s. war of tirelessly to end save slavery. we know there was slavery that was still tolerated when the nation began we know that was an evil and it was a school and a block and a stain upon our history but we also know that the very founders that wrote those

documents worked tirelessly until slavery was no more in the united states. yeah that's not really the truth the founding fathers george washington and thomas jefferson owned slaves and when the constitution was ratified in seven hundred eighty eight it's stated that the slaves were three fifths of a person and the slavery issue wasn't settled until the civil war seventy seven years later but the facts don't matter michelle's view of slavery we just a few months ago michel made another gaffe involving slavery the family leader a conservative group in iowa wanted all presidential candidates to sign a pledge value to protect marriage and families but a line in that document about slavery caused quite the uproar it read slavery had a disastrous impact on african-american families it sadly a child born into slavery eight hundred sixty was more likely to be raised by his mother and father in a two parent household than was an african-american baby born after the election of the u.s.a.'s first african-american president. that's just simply not true

countless families were broken apart under slavery and that obviously didn't go over well and michelle quickly had to backtrack and she claimed that it was simply a mistake by fast forward to today when the new yorkers ryan lizza uncovered a book that michelle put on her must read list back in two thousand and two so you have the time she was a minnesota state senator and she recommended the book call of duty the sterling nobility of robert e. lee and there's a passage in that book that read slavery as it operated in the pervasively christian society which was the old south was not an adversarial relationship founded on racial animosity and in fact it bred on the whole not contempt but over time mutual respect and this produced a mutual esteem of the sort that only results when men give themselves to a common cause and the credit for the startling reality must go to the christian faith right yeah i'm pretty sure that slaves who were abused and sold off and forced to work for free in poor living conditions didn't have

a lot of respect for their owners and the fact michele bachmann actually put that book on our must read list that wasn't a mistake so this woman has a worldview that justify slavery period and it's not just a one off pledge that she didn't read well and offer a one off comment to a writer and the truly sad part about her views as if there are other people out there who share them too so there is this rich christian history of justifying the existence of slavery michele bachmann has joined that history and that's why we're giving her tonight's tool time award. ok time for happy hour this evening and joining me is r t producer jenny churchill and alex sites wall reporter and blogger for think progress dot org and the progress report thanks for joining me guys speaking of michele bachmann you know

there is a lot of a lot of crazy things that she says. that are just dead on right on the spot you can see them easily but then of course some people take pictures of her looking for a graveyard so yesterday we were talking about the newsweek cover causing a lot of uproar because people think that they tried to make her look crazy on purpose and it's easy to say that she just is crazy but that other picture where she has her hands together there and is praying is one of the ones that was actually left out and some people said that that was a sign of sexism in the mainstream media to what if they were not i don't know about sexism i do think it's kind of sad that that picture is the picture that we're saying is better and they should have used i think it's actually really awful that's what kind of head on and i got to be against music on this one like as a member of the real leftist media you know the mainstream media subjected to criticism of being liberal all the time and usually that's totally b.s. but here like you're just inviting criticism you're putting a picture that you know is unflattering and it's just like more ammunition for the

sarah palin's the michele bachmann's of the world and just a real eye for totally i totally agree with the right because look at this whole segment tool time that we just did of all these crazy statements michele bachmann has made supporting slavery what she says what she represents is crazy you know you don't have to put a bad picture out there i think they were just trying to accurately represent michele bachmann what's so wrong with that i don't understand i don't think i mean i think that it was probably malicious but you know i mean i think that if she looks crazy and her cover looks crazy i don't really see what's so wrong with that really there were better photos so they decided to choose a bad photo should they do what i did you know realistically how do you try to decide you that photo that looks like what michele bachmann actually starting to look i know there are plenty of better photos of michele bachmann out there and they went out of their way to find an unflattering what is sexism i don't know if it's sexism not as fortunate i would agree with that either but there definitely was a bad choice now let's move on to some michele bachmann obviously is running for president

michael moore has his own i. of someone who thinks director present take a look. michael have you actually had conversations with the math amy about this no but i think. he's been very courageous and not caring about who is offended by coming out and saying things that need to be said the republicans certainly are shown the way that when you run someone who is popular. you win. so basically he thinks that matt damon should be president instead. i don't agree with that you know i've heard some people thought i got maybe george clooney would make a good politician and he's just so much more of a likable character that day when i was just going to say there's no way i can support matt damon other than the fact that i disagree with his stances but i'm george clooney all the way for going with a rather then get out your good looking just because good looking guy i'm a better i don't know i was with you until a sort of looking into matt damon's political forum which is where i was and then

there was tell your attending hand object that he's pretty smart i think you know what he's talking about he was just at this rally in d.c. this week and you know he was approached by a bunch of conservatives who were upset with him and he's right back there with them he knew what he was talking about and you know i mean there were really angry words to confuse the teacher argument i think a fair you know i think that there is an argument on his side of that debate i just don't think that he made it in the best way possible worded it in the most complicated way possible for people to think he was smart not necessarily right well about the rhetoric again which is like what i've been a good president to i think is reason to be the one who approached and was getting really early as he was here on the show i think she was clearly expecting him to not know at all what he was talking about so he was using big words to show that he knew what he was like i think she was i don't think he was using said words to be like look how smart i am well he wasn't good will hunting forget. the latest. story hope is now in the middle

of a controversy because there was an internal memo that was sent out an internal e-mail that said it is probably best that we don't specifically call out or promote ramadan we shouldn't highlight ramadan and signage in our stores that could be considered celebrating or promoting ramadan in this because there are you know selling along for all this and i've actually went on twitter to whole foods has now launched this massive p.r. campaign to try to correct that he said it was just. we have twelve regions and it was just this one group that sent out that e-mail and it was kind of associate this one group where you know ramadan soon actually or are now taliban's trying to infiltrate through a whole foods across the road that one area saying that you can still sell the products that we don't want to be specifically promoting them only for ramadan just for anybody that might want those products but it's kind of funny because most people think the whole foods has kind of a liberal image i don't think i've seen this video but this is my my favorite thing but we'll just take a look you. know you. don't

. feel it's not the ramadan promoting whole foods yeah i mean i would expect better from whole foods like there's this massive islamophobia campaign going on and i would expect them to hold out for this we went back and forth with the spokesperson from whole foods this afternoon actually and they said ok we're still promoting the whole food but not ramadan because we don't support in the holidays you google whole foods christmas the first thing that it is a blog post as america's but i think it's yeah gotten completely out of control with this holiday thing now when i'm walking into a store and i say merry christmas i feel uncomfortable because you're not supposed to say that and i think that there are you know you have to have a menorah if you could have a christmas tree you know whatever i think that america is a country of many religions and everyone should be allowed to celebrate whichever religion they choose at any time and i think it's ridiculous i mean if we're going to go here with the whole all food we might as well you know make sure they don't

sell kosher hotdogs at ballparks it's you know it's just ridiculous i don't know but it's very shrewd is over this goes totally out of their way when it's thanksgiving time right or during october around how we'd or definitely most definitely for christmas so why not the ramadan now let's move out of this story there are a lot of books that often get banned in this country unfortunately stupid people in stupid states and the most recent one thank you not a whole lot of bitter about this sorry. the most recent one is five in missouri schools and they said that they banned it for creating false conceptions of american history and government or because the book teaches principals contrary to biblical morality and truth which i'm sorry this is a science fiction book so if you honestly think that it creates false conceptions of american history who the hell are these teachers that are trying to give it to their kids and you know and although this is a true historical account as a science fiction book it was to make you think of what the world could end up like

yeah i mean it's really frightening and i think the single most scary thing in this country is when people try to censor books from kids we should be happy that kids want to read books and first of all if you banned a book when i was in high school that was the first book i wanted to read that's for sure obviously that's how kids function yeah i mean it gives you a false conception of gravity and of time and whatever also it's really sort of this is kind of the same thing as well with this one guy complained and then the school district bent over backwards and the guy also said about a different book but they also bet if they change the ending you know maybe i'd be ok with it which shows that he is the result think about the actual content there was a problem he just disagreed with it you know there wasn't actually anything offensive in it it's just so frightening that one person can affect policy and in a school where they were going to discuss this book and talk about kind of the underlying meanings and know now they don't get to talk about it all of these kids are just going to go read it on their own but this is what happens all the time i actually want to get library has about one hundred fifty copies that they're volunteering to send out to people which i think is a good thing we've seen you know the diary of anne frank be banned in certain

places because when they used the word vagina or something and so somebody didn't like it but you know you talk about just a couple people having power that's like what we saw in texas where the board of education there were a few people were deciding to rewrite all the history books craziness you know just open books just don't ban books their books let them be ok. we don't have time for other topics now it will have to carry through with them tomorrow thanks for joining us. for the night. thanks for tuning in and make sure that you come back tomorrow and experience in the young turks to be back on the show in the meantime don't forget to become a fan of the lower show on facebook out of followers on twitter and if you missed any of the night's or any other nights always catch you tube dot com be alone a show coming up next is adam first tonight. on. the movement.
