thanks for that how can someone. get up sometimes you see a story and it seems so sleek you think you understand it and then you glimpse something else you hear or see some other part of it and realize that everything is ok if you don't i'm sorry welcome to the big picture. where we are broke. and yet. lead. five. foot. five it's.

just that we are going to break. well. we never got as they're going to be safe get ready for freedom.

are dissatisfied told on war and tonight it goes to gretchen carlson over at fox and friends now the former beauty queen fern journalist was on fox news last night previewing the g.o.p. debate and she was asked what question would you ask the candidates in the debate if you were moderating so just listen to gretchen's a very very hard hitting question. as president how important would it be for you to address the political correctness in our society many argue is totally out of control from the war on christmas to leaving the word god out of the pledge of allegiance to not calling the alleged fort hood shooter what a year is a homegrown muslim terrorist how is that harmful moving forward for our nation. that's right gretchen actually wants to ask about the war on christmas too that the war on christmas only exists on fox news nobody else gives

a damn or even knows that it is out there now unfortunately even fox knows not to let gretchen and her fox and friends co-host steve doocy and brian kilmeade anywhere near a presidential debate which is kind of a shame when you think about it the gretchen's hard hitting question about christmas got us thinking about a more perfect world where fox and friends would have hosted a presidential debate i just wonder what questions they would ask we better they would spend some serious time in the candidates news on a whole host of issues and i'm thinking that some child rearing and discipline questions would definitely be in the top. he said quote get away from me you and then a word that starts with i say one hundred percent pepper spray you do a man seven and some parenting classes as well if you're a police officer tell me can you take down an eight year old that pepper spray i think yes yes absolutely all right in my book it's called discipline coming up next good thing we already know aggression brings person a year old that's just plain old discipline now of course boston friends would also

want to canvass views on climate change and why that liberal sponge bob square pants is a darker indoctrinating the children of america. the government agency showed kids this cartoon in canada books that plane man for global warming but they did not tell kids that betty said actually a disputed fact hopes. and after asking hard hitting questions about sponge bob fox and friends would finally turn to more serious issues facing the u.s. like race relations here we go and this is this you've got to see to believe this we're talking about korea would change the colors of the rainbow instead holding colors of the cultures he clearly said to the crayons. all right so we just played you all those clips to prove a point farts unfriend is not news it's a comedy hour case in point is gretchen carlson crazy question about the supposed war on christmas and that's why we're giving her tonight too and i'm a worrier. now the pentagon and its super secretive division darpa have been

working on another unmanned aerial device and they're very proud of their baby the falcon hypersonic technology vehicle two so when the defense department tested their newest project they wanted to make sure that everybody knew about it. the defense department plans a second test for its super fast aircraft that can fly at a blistering speed of thirteen thousand miles per hour or twenty times the speed of sound if everything goes as planned the pentagon would be gifted with a lightning fast to be a goal capable of delivering a military strike anywhere in the world in less than an hour to give you that's right biz that boy boasts all sorts of stats that would just make your jaw drop tell darko was so confident even tweeted the entire testing process except the h t v two didn't do very well in fact just a few minutes after taking off guard between range assets of the last elementary with h t v two more to follow the reports show the signal was lost on the mountain twenty missile and it crashed into the ocean and i understand this is

a common occurrence for military testing it isn't always work but this was the second test of the h.g.v. to the first one fell into the water even faster than this one bit not to mention a series of testing with the wind tunnel took place between the two flight tests so surely the pentagon was unhappy with all their testing proved to be so unsuccessful but you want to know what the price tag on this defense project was a mere three hundred eight million dollars which let's be honest by today's standards is chump change when it comes to military spending after all we told you just a short while ago of the government's joint strike fighter program has become one of the d.o.d.'s largest investments and estimated trillion dollar investments in mechanical problems have rid of the program and of left the f. twenty two and the f. thirty five fleets grounded until further notice now report from danger room even says that pilots for the f. twenty two could lose their clearance and despite the fact that twenty two is an f. thirty five they're both grounded for a slew of mechanical problems the pentagon just signed another contract. for even more the thirty five's with lockheed martin and that price tag is it five hundred

and thirty five million dollars now the waste is just dropping the i understand that testing these designs is a crucial element of the development process when these projects are millions of dollars a piece i'd suggest maybe i don't know a more conservative approach so now i guess we know why panetta and president obama are so against taking money from their defense budget they needed to continue their work on the jets and the drones and all these missiles that don't even work who cares about cutting medicare and other necessary social programs we've got to make sure the d.o.d. has the coolest toys on the planet. well now let's talk about some of those toys drones unmanned aerial devices are used by our military and our cia in pakistan yemen and somalia drones are also used on our borders both north and the south and law enforcement agencies across a number of states are working their hands on getting them to but this year it was reported by the observer that news corp's the daily also had a drought and that in fact sent it out

a few times to get news footage of alabama after devastating storms hit there and in north dakota after floods so if news corp can get a drone can anybody any news organization any private company well that's the exact question that our guest tonight has been trying to figure out joining me from our studio in new york is kashmir hill staff writer at forbes katherine i want to thank you so much for joining us tonight and i know that you have been digging into this trying to get to the bottom of the whole story fairly it's a no go for commercial use of drones at this point but when you asked the f.a.a. about news corp thrown in particular what did they tell you. they were surprised by the use of the drone by news corp when i first asked they kind of. asked whether a hobbyist have flown the drone a name given the footage to the daily and i said no this is a drone that the daily and after i told them that they said that they're actually going to be launching an investigation to see whether their use was legal or not now do we have any idea how the daily actually got their hands on this road i mean

is it that easy to go out and buy one at this point you can buy drones it's not a legal to buy a drone the only question of legality is in how you use it so you can't get the kind of drone that the daily has on amazon so you can get a smaller three hundred dollar one that you can you can fly for iphone but you can buy drones right now the only and these are supposed to be using drones are governments law enforcement you know public actors at this point it's really hard for a private entity to use a drone for business purposes now you say it's really hard but it's not impossible are there at least some exceptions that are made some licenses or certificates that are given out. and you can always send your drone up in the question is whether you have the correct authorization to do that this is really tightly regulated by the f.a.a. right now because they're worried about. having. and vehicles in the airspace so in order to fly in you have to get

a certificate of authorization from the f.a.a. at this point they've only given out a few hundred and they've given less than one hundred to private cities in the case of private and it's usually a university that's doing it for research purposes or a drone maker that's going to be flying the drones to train pilots but at this point you know news organizations can't really buy drones and just send them up to you know check out brangelina walking around or even take footage of this pastor yes well what do you think about that if you think that news organizations should be able to send a drone now you mention of course brangelina and the whole paparazzi aspect which i imagine would be a privacy concern for celebrities out there but what about the idea you know news organizations being able to go and film disaster areas or whatever else might be necessary. i think there are a lot of valid uses for drones and right now in the u.s.

drones are being used in really interesting ways i mean california uses them when they're fighting forest fires. as you said they're flying them over over the borders and so i can imagine some great use of drones for looking at disaster areas . but i also know that. the agencies are really interested in drones and are waiting for the f.a.a. to loosen up the airspace so that they can be used this way and the f.a.a. is planning on allowing greater use of drones they're just trying to figure out how how to do this in a way that it's not being used and you know privacy invasive ways or to follow celebrities around i'm just curious are they really worried about how it might be used in privacy invasive ways because at the same time aren't they ready to change some of their regulations so that law enforcement agencies all across the u.s. can also now get their hands on drones i feel like that would bring up quite a few constitutional issues well there are to be a few state law enforcement agencies are using drones texas has already used drones

in a few raids florida colorado and a few other states have actually sort of certificates of authorization to use drones but in order to actually use them for a particular purpose they have to get these emergency certificates of authorization and those are a little bit difficult but at this point there are law enforcement agencies r.t.o. and drones all right well i don't know if i should be happy about that or if i should be scared about that but it looks like right now drones are here to stay but do let us know if you hear more from the f.a.a. in terms of news corp and how they managed to skirt around the issue to get their hands on a drone kashmir thank you so much for joining us tonight thank you. now still ahead tonight fires eye friday and a saturday week so let's have a happy hour do you think is the most hated person in america and plus are only a small town capable of producing real americans playback on just enough.

into that only a military mechanisms to do the work to bring justice accountability. i have every right to know what my government should do if you want to know why i pay taxes. but i would characterize obama as a charismatic version of american exceptionalism. you know sometimes see a story and it seems so sorely sleep is if you understand it in any glimpse something else is here see some other part of it and realize that everything is just you don't know i'm charged welcomes a big. say . let's not forget

that we had an apartheid regime right here. i think iraq is one well. we haven't got the book says they're going to keep you safe get ready because you get your freedom. fighter.

to tonight's. your moves. and let's get back to a topic that i bring up constantly on this show and for which we keep seeing more and more examples it's the spin the military and intelligence officials in this country use to try to paint our wars abroad as successful now we saw it just this week with the military claiming that they got the exact guy that shot down a u.s. helicopter in afghanistan which took the lives of thirty u.s. service members now did they get some taliban yes do i believe that they know the exact taliban fighter that held the r.p.g. even though they haven't even determined yet if it even was an r.p.g. that took the helicopter down well sorry but that would be you know but it has to be noted how they use this concept of revenge or trying to appease americans make

them think that it's all ok yes the war has been going on for ten years and thousands of american lives have been lost but hey we got this guy back so don't you worry i have for some reason the pentagon the cia this of ministration they refuse to acknowledge that our actions make others want revenge as well the day and of creating more militants and one result of those actions and spoke about least probably matters most and that civilian deaths see any time the innocent civilians are caught in the crossfire see their friends their families their neighbors perish what do you think their we action is going to be thank god for the americans absolutely not but will perhaps make a. even more bad even worse is the lack of honesty the lack of transparency of market shows about the damage that is caused and here's a perfect example obama's counterterrorism adviser john brennan recently made the claim that because of the exceptional proficiency the precipitation of the

capabilities that we've been able to develop there hasn't been a single collateral death for almost a year now the precision capabilities that he's talking about our use of unmanned drones to strike targets all the man or woman pushing the button so it's thousands of miles away not a single collateral that would be something with it so the problem is as the new york times documented as a day that it just doesn't seem to add up especially not if you read accounts from pakistani journalists or from british journalists now we told you just a few weeks ago about the new report from the british bureau of investigative journalism looked around at least forty five people have died in ten strikes during the last year and of course you can say that you have to take any figures from pakistani officials with a grain of salt because it's in their interest to beat those numbers up but it's one thing to have a skeptical eye it's another thing entirely to ignore those reports as our mainstream media does while it so obediently swallows up every single word but people like john brennan and david petraeus may say well the real problem here is

that so few journalists even ask for clarification the new york times did it in this case to their credit and guess what john brennan then told the u.s. officials could not confirm any deaths he reworded it a little bit but you see it's one thing not to be able to confirm any deaths because you can actually look into them it's another thing entirely to sell the american public a number that can't be confirmed as fact but that big flashing zero just seems so sexy so hard to resist and since the cia treats us all like ignorant fools and has the ability to simply not talk about its drone program as if it doesn't even exist well probably never know the truth and that's a big problem. not only because they use these false figures to keep our war in afghanistan and pakistan going but because they'll continue to use them to spread the technology all over the world we've got drones in pakistan in yemen we're using them in somalia and you think that it's going to stop their dream on and the problem here is that thanks to the secrecy to the inability for people to properly

check they'll keep selling drones is the answer to all of our woes that magic technology that lets us strike from far away and only get the backtrack and is this technology credible precise compared to what else our military has yes but it's far from perfect so before you know it not only will be drones being used all over the world we'll start selling them to other countries those so called perfect weapons are going to be hit and of people who will lose all the countless civilians that will be killed or injured innocent victims who get stuck in the crossfire and whose deaths will continue to be hidden from public view you know some are suggesting that the cia not only make their strikes public but they even post videos of them i don't know if that's the answer well i'd rather there not be any drone strikes but what i do know is that not questioning our military and intelligence officials not pressing them for the truth that's the biggest mistake that we can make.

ok it's friday and it's time for happy hour so joining me this evening is r t correspondent lauren lyster and derek thompson senior editor at the atlantic thanks for joining me guy you ok so we were just talking about the g.o.p. debate from last night all the presidential candidates maybe rick perry is going to join in the race sarah pailin nobody really knows at this point of course her bus made a convenient stop in iowa this weekend but she has released a new ad out there about her bus tour and. take a look. writer in sermons we grow good people in our small towns. near the line to do some of the hard work in america. all right

it's not like there are good people that come from small towns and do some of the hardest work in america they only come from small towns like you but live in cities are good people we don't do hard work they're just not the ones i would be attracted to her bus to or anything having to do with sarah palin this isn't to make in the republican party and even when rick perry came out today with his i think there's a preview of the speech he's going to make the upcoming week to announce the presidency and he says you know america america's future is going to come from cities it's going to come from washington it's going to come from the great plains and from middle america and i don't understand republicans have against offices office buildings and cities and that's how they want to know exactly what charlie area is based in those offices and cities who is based there i missed what you say their job creators the republicans want to cut taxes for exactly i don't know it's all alone any if you ask me right but the cities are really populated this is where the majority of americans actually live this is where life goes on and we have good people here too i guess this is

a see the most republican. good luck to them with that and good luck tonight watching a little added i mean her movie theaters were empty when her documentary showed and she's still. with that we don't see that is exactly why she started it right i mean sure her currency is attention she's not actually running for president she's running to get you know a certain because she's just like i think she can help and i think she she has to go to iowa even if she's not interested in running for president because she just has to be a part of it in the mix and get some of the attention i think she's addicted she's crossed that threshold into celebrity if you ask me and that's it there's no turning back for her. but now let's move on to i don't know if you guys came up with the answer is we were thinking long and hard before the show there is a poll out who did it even poll market research and they. people of the most hated person in america was you guys the most hated person let's do it after we after you know i can't give you some to say. well this might give you a clue. let me.

bring tonight. i'm sorry any excuse to get it simply. going out to the devil is dancing tonight i think she might be one of my least favorite people in america i don't know how to go far as far as aids but it definitely helps me the wrong way but it turns out actually the most hated person in america according to the poll right now is casey anthony big friggin surprise she really the worst person in america are there other people you can hate she just got the most publicity for someone that you would hate right right in our second was that right i mean i don't know about sarah's friends or pratt was out of the. b.b.s. is a crime against humanity maybe i don't know when thinking about people that i hate i really don't hate anybody but one person is certainly present i think might be asked and i'm not sure i completely understand i was career is so successful because even though yeah usually a lot of twitter followers he gets

a lot of it was the reaction but you sure you got your job right now seven hundred thousand dollars per episode i should have kept going to. sure but that's one reason why didn't you have a good point and no no i have a good point when it comes to his acting chops we're talking about deserve that much money but at the same time he hasn't really smart because he caught on to a lot of these new tech companies before everybody else did he invested in them he's kind of riding the wave maybe you know ahead of it i guess you could say when it comes to technology i love returning to love you and what's there to segment about hater he will do you have to. say all the evil i hate the mainstream media for making casey anthony so well known that ninety four percent of the people that knew her hated her the most. ok i committed and nancy grace is probably the person most responsible for that now if we want to something i guess you can say is a little more serious or i don't know love first let's take a look at this clip that describes who we're talking about. development in the

caves. now answer jason abdo he's a wall american soldier who was arrested after f.b.i. agents potential bomb making material in his hotel room. all right so apparently what they also found was that this guy had a porn and apparently i guess it turned out to be child porn wishes you know gross but so somebody decided to make the connection it's jennifer bryson from the witherspoon institute now wrote a thing about terrorism and war because of course osama bin ladin got him and they went into his compound they found that he had a huge porn stash and so this is the argument she made she said given how widespread the viewing of pornography is today if the direct result of each individual's pornography use were terrorist violence one could conceivably argue that pornography proliferation would pose a more widespread threat to human existence the nuclear proliferation so she's basically saying that porn is encouraging terrorists to be more violent and be terrorists because porn is so much more grotesque these days just every man be

a terrorist i mean isn't it just that all of these militants or people engaging in these activities are not shocking to me that they happen to possess porn do i because it was cock of your you heard it pornography is widespread that it correlates highly with absolutely everything it's like oxygen it's like saying oh well everybody just committed a terrorist attack appears to have two lungs and is breathing oxygen therefore it seems clear to me that the breathing of oxygen might be more dangerous than the liberation of nuclear weapons makes absolute sense because they like to be more efficient like oxygen or whatever that lets you know it's her last story for right out of time riots in london and now this is the london mayor boris johnson talking about how they're cracking down on people. he breathed. the best police state she was at the moment the receipt he knows was not continue counting. the days which of those people would receive very severe sentence. ok so they're obviously you know are people that were looting in vandalizing and it's still

a lot of things and we're burning property and they deserve to be punished but twenty three year old student with no previous convictions was given the maximum permitted six months of jail time after stealing bottles of water i think that's a little much that you know they're going to have some problems if they're going to do this every body because you saw us remember the pink floyd adoptive son there are some pink floyd his adopted son got sixteen months for protesting at a student protest. i mean it isn't a good example of central here with the same time it's pretty clear that what the governor wants to do they don't know who's causing all of these riots i don't knows who is behind all the burnings so what you do is you make it an extreme example of a few people who you do know have committed a crime but it's not true so this case i mean i got a record i'm sorry but i think that the net makes for joining me tonight are that's a good night so thanks for tuning in to make sure you can back on monday because i say the ames straw poll results i mean time to forget become a fan of the alona show on facebook and follow us on twitter and if you missed any
