the top stories tonight from r.t. it might have cheers but also a few jeers has putin's presidential victory sinks in with tens of thousands on the streets some went too far forcing the police to step in around two hundred fifty overzealous protesters were detained although they've since been released. leading u.s. senator john mccain is calling for airstrikes to force syrian president assad is the first american politician to make such call meantime thousands of syrians have been forced to flee to lebanon because of the fierce fashion's between government forces and opposition fighters. and iran's to allow u.n. nuclear inspectors into a secret military facility for its suspected atomic weapons research is being
1:31 pm
carried out earlier president obama vowed to use any power necessary to stop around getting a nuclear bomb including standing by israel despite its threat to attack the islamic republic. i'm kevin zero in on all those top stories with me in thirty minutes afterwards to washington apart to the low to show very short. hi guys it's time for you said it i read it right takes time to respond to our really and engaging viewer comments on facebook twitter and you tube because when
1:32 pm
you've got something to say i listen now last friday we interviewed a former goldman sachs employee and author william coleman about wall street guys going on the record to complain about their bonuses and let's just say that much like william and myself our viewers didn't have too much sympathy for them or were like none at all jeff baldwin said on facebook and wall street is looking for sympathy from the american people they're out of their minds have real gadsden said on facebook they got bailed out and got away with the biggest financial crime since the savings and loans crisis of the one nine hundred eighty s. don't want to hear it from these crooks and i also find it just flabbergasting that wall street bankers hedge funders in the like all the nerve to complain about their bonuses and how hard it is to be rich on the record just shows you how to be disconnected from the rest of the country and the rest of the world they are all millions of americans have no jobs at all and i'm president and one in six are living in poverty or complaining about having to sell sports cars and go on fewer vacations so if that doesn't show you there really are two americas i don't know
1:33 pm
it's us now it's move right on to the question of what men are for which we spoke about on last friday's show it all started because james pullos asked what women are for a while back so then our guest last friday turned the tables and said that men were really worried about their own relevance so as usual our viewers that all sorts of cultural responses and here's a few the many. who said on you tube as a male my sole purpose in life is to be able to play thing which entails a lot of smiling and nodding john calibers on facebook message this to absorb a woman's wrath and to reflect her beauty which is certainly more like it if you ask me and then there's my personal favorite cyborg clown to put on you so a lot of things the only thing men are good for is sperm and she wishes men would no longer exist in the human race wow i guess it's pretty obvious that a low it is a lesbian so yeah you got me i love to go to response or sunbed when faced with a woman with strong opinions that she must be a lesbian a man hater not to mention i never said i wish men didn't exist sometimes i like
1:34 pm
you guys and finally i want to give a shout out to ohio university student alexander carter who emailed into r t dot com he said hello r.c. from the one thousand year old male from ohio i would really like to get a hold of alone if possible to tell her how awesome the show is i've turned all my friends on to it at the university and we sit around the laptop late at night together to watch the show but. a letter or maybe even a super short and sweet vocal. i would just like to have my voice heard and it would literally make my year if i could hear something back from her it's been a lot to me so alex here we go response i just want to say thank you so much for watching the show and please keep spreading the word to all your friends and if my rantings and i go way back with more as usual later in the week. now from the very beginning one of the defining characteristics of the occupy movement was that there is no hierarchy no clear leaders occupiers consider their structure to be horizontal want the very beginning they're also going to have politicians unions
1:35 pm
other organizations trying to co-opt the movement let's talk about the latest development in the sense reading for the first time there is a fire one c three called the movement resource group and so far they've raised about three hundred thousand dollars the bulk coming from the foundation of ben cohen of ben and jerry's and the nonprofit is website mission statement reads as m.r. g. provides a single point of contact as well as accountability for how funds are expended for individual donors foundations and unions and they fund projects within the following guidelines messaging direct actions and recruiting projects to build the base locally and nationally but we have to ask if it's very organization in of itself goes against what occupies trying to do so joining me to discuss it is dennis trainer jr writer video producer and host of acronym t.v.'s also has an upcoming documentary on the occupy movement that will be released on april thirtieth and it's nice to have you back on the show tonight so for starters let's just start with this group m r g they've decided to set it up and say that we are
1:36 pm
going to be this soul central point of contact for those that want to find the occupy movement but is that a problem in and of itself or the occupy movement well first of all i can see and sense that people watching from the outside would be very frustrated here that well here comes the organization that wants to jump all but a lot of money into the occupy movement what's the problem you are showing and it's just a made for no strings attached are you not for sale just jeff smith wrote an article in the daily beast that i think really perfectly kind of sums up your. feelings about this is time well there's a lot of. money and i think the money can be. well you just. your seems to be a lack of consensus and that's the problem then call in and others who have tried to approach the movement roll it in their terms really seem to be wanting to
1:37 pm
stumble it into a specific idea or campaign that they have it's not about funneling it's about a growth start spreading groups about bottom up all right so but if let's say that you were banged cullen that you were russell simmons and you were one of these people that has taken a liking i guess you could say the occupy movement right that has been showing support what do you think of they should do should they just stay out of it so they not try to find anything. no first of all are really grateful that ben cohen a step towards doing what he's doing you know i mean he's saying that i'm going to fund certain projects but we're going to limit those projects that are going to be funded to the red light or green light of sorry green lighted by a small group of people bent on really had faith in the occupy movement stands for it is totality you can say here comes of but a load of money and here comes i'm going to hand it over to ga to decide how to do it the problem to be fair is that i think i was true to be the first to admit it really didn't handle the nearly one million dollars that they had in the fall going
1:38 pm
into the winter so. where the money whether to take money at all has become an issue we're going to movement and some people feel like money is a corrupting power and that they should do with it all together i don't myself think that you do anybody to grow the movement and would be nice if ben and jerry and other people who wanted to support move to help see it grow we trust the horizontal consensus building process that has been in place that's the one non-negotiable thing it's the one thing the movement stands for people trying to create a new world using a different process that has been in place and hierarchy process and figured this way if you have a publicly owned company to go to stockholders meeting the person who owns the most stock gets now the most float same with the super pacs and with the current voting system it's wrong the most money gets the most votes the uk i state you know as i was going to run it's more than one person one vote it's the rep democracy it's
1:39 pm
consensus and that's not what we call and this movement resource were presented to the our bed last sunday night in new york that's a national price that i can look at the type organization that they set up here and by the one c three is basically a product of the citizens united ruling which are these now are going to say fans they take in all kinds of funding and then hand over to the super pacs and that's why the donors aren't so close and it's all part of the same problem as i say about flights will resume. back to the super pacs. keeps rolling it out so definitely an irony that i'll play you know i have to ask you that because when you talk about the horizontal structure right and how this is something that's being done completely differently where do you think of the occupy movement is right now that has been more than five months they don't really have a large physical presence anymore do you think that i know that you know you. you serve as an and media element i think of the movement and the t.v. that you do what else is it that they need to do to stay relevant they had options last week they weren't huge actions or occupy a pac also didn't get the numbers it didn't get the media attention as they did
1:40 pm
last thought those couple of factors that come into play you know at least the fall that early into early to the winter of most of the occupations around the country that is a certain kind of anger that comes with that what do you do after your twenty four hour physical occupation is this route it but what one myth that i'd like to dispel is that the occupations just are that people camping in in physical spaces that is an important tactic of the occupy movement but it is not the are the i mean it is not about camping can public spaces the occupy movement is about in my opinion creating real direct democracy real democracy now and to that end people have been working behind the scenes in offices from their homes from all different locations and including physical occupations so where the occupy movement goes from now is that the weather is about to get warm may is going to come nate is an interview very big event and we're going to go into a long season that's going to head straight into the election cycle where you're
1:41 pm
going to see massive uprising was because of the fall because there's been a lot of work is being done behind the scenes in the people who are stuck you realize that there are other ways to engage the occupy movement if you're not if you don't say have the time or you know inclined to just physically occupy twenty four hours a day there's much movement is much much much bigger let's talk about a development that we learned about that. the ga and the nato summit as who are supposed to be held in chicago nato summit asuncion congo but we found out of the gate what instead to be held at camp david and basically they got the statement has made the united states export to hosting the g eight nato summit to facilitate a free flowing discussion with our close change partners the president is inviting his fellow g. eight leaders to camp david on may eighteenth to nineteenth for the summit which will address a broad range of economic political and security issues so when we split a free flowing discussion i do think that they're trying to get away from the
1:42 pm
protesters there because we knew that of course there were mass actions planned apogee eight summit mathematic in the chicago had a lot of plans on clamping down on the protesters there go look at that is what you have is this movement that has no momentum it's horizontal that is by all mainstream media council irrelevant as for me the six the eight look most powerful countries in the world and their representatives to relocate their meeting to a military base so i say yes because of the uk i mean and yes the uk i mean it's real this is this is just transpiring just an hour before your show went live so clearly the uk i mean hasn't developed a response to this my hope is that the little goat have some presence outside of camp david i know that before i started i was part of the protest movements aquatic only all variations were private bradley manning so it is possible to have some sort of physical action direct action headed up by movement and i hope it also
1:43 pm
opens up the opportunity for the uk by moving to realise that a massive showing in our nation's capital that illustrates the umbilical cord between wall street and the white house is necessary so perhaps it's time to consider beyond a national occupation of washington d.c. which starts me here you can run the entire month of april so there's a lot there's a lot of opportunity to come out of that but yes definitely this response to g eight summit to a military base is an occupy response there interesting are identified thanks so much for joining us tonight. thank you. for last break of the evening but when we come back he's led the charge the even izing muslim communities across america and that is upset the a.p. is revealing the spying techniques of the and i think we have more naturals i don't how we are should there be quotas for women to businesses and the new york times of eels the gym where the top bankers go to but maybe offer to much.
1:44 pm
will. technology innovation holding these developments around russia we've got the future. there's you know soon after i'm done i know. this is not old those are not patriotic now but i like the american flag but this song tells it otherwise. their words through song is is we will stand forever as a nation under the flag. meaning the red white and blue stripes. is a sort of trying to be the clouds on the outside of. their heart is through the anger . the heart. of all kinds of struggles and they allow the choose.
1:45 pm
to allow these things to stay there choose alcohol or the choose drown. this is that people buy at our local store here and they. they open it and they fill it with water over there from the stick it and then and then i think they drink it because it has to because it has alcohol in it and so it is they drink it but it's actually hairspray. could lead good lives now here. nobody could see. not my family. doc. hope well those who try nobody could stay the. course i'm sure i'll be one. sometimes you see
1:46 pm
a story and it's sick so you think you understand. something else here's the part of this i realized everything is all. part of the. guys in cyprus and i it's tool time award and i are giving it to the man who has become the anti muslim mouthpiece of the g.o.p. after all he led the muslim radicalization hearings on capitol hill last year and has plans to continue them into this year so i guess we should be too surprised he also appeared at a press conference this morning at police plaza in new york city to praise the n.y.p.d. and denounce the a.p.'s investigative series which is shedding light on the surveillance
1:47 pm
practices by police and that investigative series which we have discussed at length here on the show detail how cows of muslims are being spied on by the n.y.p.d. for no other reason than being muslim in mosques universities stores restaurants some of us will even then with the help of the cia and the extended way beyond the city limits of new york city surveillance was conducted in newark universities all across the northeast so you have the n.y.p.d. is going way beyond their legal limits when it comes to protecting and serving but before peter king addressed a crowd of about twenty people defend the surveillance methods here on our fox news to explain why you think so highly of n.y.p.d. commissioner ray kelly i think commissioner kelly and you were at the n.y.p.d. to get a medal for what they're doing they carry out surveillance of the areas where we expect the next terrorist attack to come from. all right so i think that he makes it pretty clear king loves kelly but his reasoning really sound i mean every convince of the next attack is really coming from someone within the muslim american community because it isn't watch my show very often because it was
1:48 pm
a few weeks ago we highlighted the triangle center on terrorism and homeland security and their reports on homegrown terrorism it turns out there's really not much to report because well there really isn't any thought or report call that a minuscule threat to public safety and guess what that report isn't from the associated press but i assume that peter king will denounce its findings as well but a lawmaker further defended the commissioner's record saying that king has managed to stop several potentially dangerous attacks would really care were used on the stop thirteen or fourteen it's talks already against new york within the insurer's target so let me take a moment to go over law enforcement's record when it comes to catching those carry on things says thirteen to fourteen attacks how many refined facilitated by the n.y.p.d. you know what undercover agent works with a disgruntled person encourages them fund them plans an attack with them i pose a human cell or the new bridge for and let me take a moment to point out where all those millions of dollars and efforts but also fail
1:49 pm
things like the times square bombing attempt where if i saw suicide left his nissan and hopes of causing a major explosion well n.y.p.d. dropped the ball now and perhaps because they were framing too many other people to concentrate on the real lone wolf threats but here's the part that really gets me peter king defended the n.y.p.d. spying methods and called a.p.'s investigation slanderous everything users legal and constitutional i think the new york times and so she approached the description themselves where the slanders attacks on the enemy do you expect. all right so for starters let me just explain that what commissioner kelly has done is not legal amount of spying potentially violates and i think he's own guidelines a new york city law which outlaws racial profiling based on religion not to mention the first amendment and what the a.p. does isn't slander they're using actual best evidence that they found to shed light on the actions and might be the real problem here and the a.p. is investigation doesn't help peter king's political message so obviously he wants
1:50 pm
to attack them for calling out the media for actually doing real investigative journalism which is so rare these days and praising the efforts of an illegal surveillance program against muslims here in america all of that makes peter king tonight's tools on where. our guys it's time for half the hour and joining me this evening archie producer jenny churchill and i'll be read as the director of economic research for the reason foundation whose son. i thought anthony was wearing socks sorry it's only. laughing so much ok let's start with this story makes me laugh and it too that's one of those things where law enforcement really tries to pump up some new gadget that they haven't talked about how cool it is and then things go awry so this particular bit is from montgomery county in texas and they had
1:51 pm
a really big day planned because of this man take a listen. we can launch this put it over a fire put it over hazmat spill. a house with a barricaded suspect and literally give the incident commander the ability to look at the entire scene. with a bird's eye view. ok so what happened is it was debuted a with a big shiny drone that calling awesome three hundred grand and basically. the drone crashed into a swat team when it lost control of the controllers consul on the ground he mentioned all the things you could put it over he forgot the swat team and threw through the swat team it's actually quite terrifying because if it hadn't been the swat team and like an armored vehicle people could have been injured or killed all for others they want to have you know drones flying around domestically everywhere but these things can go wrong what i mean it's very rare that you see like
1:52 pm
a helicopter crashing in to you know two cars on the ground but that's because you have people flying actually in the helicopter these drones the problem here was a lawsuit with a person on the ground that's terrified that's actually turned for the rebel forces going to the green is a good plane with their like their airplanes or their little controllers on the ground and the odds of this happening again with cell phones in everything going up it's like are you kidding me of course not about how many high us are going to be very high kids but if you because not only didn't lose communication with the person operating on the ground it didn't do what it was supposed to do when that occurs this was back out where it goes to the autopilot it just didn't do that i don't drones surveys jug drones no one see this is the first warning everybody you know just you know everyone should be aware that this is warning number one because of first importance to get these. ok. what it was ominous scary ok let's move on to something else so we all had to go through
1:53 pm
the really horrible tedious processes of having to cite our sources we write a paper and these days when you're actually decided to give us an assignment i guess you could say as to how to cite tweets one supported schools now professors in the bay area are using wikipedia as a teaching tool or a goldman associate professor at santa clara university school of law asked his students to create an entry we're finally example where do you want to go. to write . ok just kidding. let me backtrack a little bit citing we could now it's no longer taboo but there you go together but there has come out with a way to know the truth and so you tweet so it's connected to the story there's your art there are a drunk yes i'm very sorry but i've got more interesting. i teach a course in new york and i would never let any of my students. in
1:54 pm
a paper i don't care that i'm always come up with a way to do this we could p.d. it was taboo i think it's still time you need to go find original sources this is absolutely a feeling time you know about like the wiener tweeting inappropriate things out near discussing males in politics and going rogue and doing probably thinking about new york times stories the talk about it you can talk about so many things that the stress the speaking the not going to address the actual tweet that seems kind of ridiculous or going to go all the way around because you can't go to actually where you know the idea. is like that that's what happens not it's not research it's not hard data yet you need to be you need to be you know it's just this is why are you writing an academic paper but i think we're in the first place but it's a separate interview you're going to see here to me here is that emily didn't think it was important to include a link to the tweet has anyone ever tried to find it like it was weeks later it's
1:55 pm
impossible so these professors would have no way of knowing and never actually happened. so please do not write it in there we go. i'm very bitter about it. ok. let's move on to the new because they often come up with things like this because we've learned lately there have been some charts out there showing that if you look at most of the major news publications major magazines in the u.s. it's really pathetic the men and women that actually write the majority the stories they're the results according the census bureau's information that told us that at every education level still in the u.s. women make less then and so the e.u. is now actually considering a female i would take a look at this. today only three out of ten european antropov nurse are women and women are under represented in senior positions only one out of ten board members of the largest companies listed on the national stock
1:56 pm
exchange's union member states is a woman. apparently you have no. where does. the rector in the control room and i don't think our fans know that we have an all female team on the lower show that's what they were doing the reverse here we're really making up for it we don't let men work with us so that works the way we do it my sons and you know if you trust men out for the occasional two or three minute little bit of a t.v. show we'll get. one point is so if if in europe it gets to the point we're out of ten positions are held by our women while said we have to have a male quota in europe but this this this idea that we're going to. somehow rectify all situation by just making sure there's at least four out of every ten are women to me seems a little we actually i'm going to end up with i'm not in accord with what you say
1:57 pm
also what he. really doesn't address the issue which is that that's a symptom of a larger issue and also you've got to keep in mind that you know a lot of times when you get to the age where you're going to be an executive or on a board that's about the time that women are having children and people don't want to promote women in those positions because you know they might go on pregnancy and i'm sorry but that's the truth well these are all other elements in this discussion you know and like i said with why women get paid less where's the male vote for the a lot of your stuff. now. like. a good deal. you know. you never know. thanks for joining me tonight i think that night so thanks for tuning in and making a comeback tomorrow turns out contributor jeffrey k. is going to be on the show and tell us about this three suicide. i mean time don't forget to become a fan of the on the show on facebook and follow us on twitter if you missed any of
