i think average viewer knows that r t america has a different perspective so that we're not hearing one echo chamber that mainstream media is constantly spewing. we're not beholden to any corporate sponsor no one tells us what to cover how long the coverage or how to say it that's the beauty of archie america. we hear both sides we hear from both sides and we question more that journalists are not letting anything get in your way to bring it home to the american people. ratings and sell you taishan. all right one more week in the books and remember that day is the oldest you've ever been the youngest you'll ever be again which

brings us which i hope brings us the wisdom to see what's wrong in this world and the youthful energy to change it and they fundamentally wrong was definitely on display this week as the senate intelligence committee quietly released its annual intelligence authorization act for twenty eight team you see it apart from the usual rubber stamp blank checks are u.s. congress gives to the intelligence community keep us all safe from the evil terrorists hiding under our beds and inside our i phones there was a a few oddities in this years bill well oddities if you're not championing the deep state on a daily basis take for example a little section buried at the end of the bill provocatively entitled section six twenty three sons of congress on wiki leaks and just what is congress's sense of wiki leaks well the section is just one sentence and it reads quote it is the sense of congress that wiki leaks and the senior leadership of wiki leaks resemble

a non-state hostile intelligence service often abetted by state actors and should be treated as such a service by the united states now anyone with any first amendment wisdom can see an awful lot of constitutional wrongs packed into that simple sentence and so did senator ron wyden out of the great state of oregon who was the committee's lone vote of dissent against the bill specifically due to the constitutional dangers he he saw presented by congress as a new sense of wiki leaks you know i think i think it's about time we show the intelligence community and the deep state our sense of congress that our government's obsession with keeping their lives and actions top secret while shredding our rights to any kind of privacy as we know it so let's start watching the hawks. what. is the. real deal with. the bottom.

like you that i got. the. lead. role the role of the watcher the hogs i am to the robot or up and down capital all this and joining us today is his conservative two cents on wiki leaks the political and cultural divide in this country is the senior put it senior contributor to red alert politics brian welcome and thanks for having me on so ron no i want to pick up that this provision in the intelligence authorization bill saying that essentially the u.s. congress itself is declaring that wiki leaks is not a journalistic organization but a hostile intelligence service in your opinion what kind of press of them does this

. well not exactly sure if this is ever been done to two journalists assert to a journalist institute like wiki leaks that has had a long of a career they've had of not yellow journalism but really just printing reprinting what other people have said. wiki leaks is in print opinions wiki leaks as in print refurbish information they literally just give what governments are doing. and that is i think that's problematic as to journalists i think what what or what what state does it put american journalists who happen to work for wiki leaks or communicate with wiki leaks. there's a lot of things left unsaid and it leaves a lot of room for for for a job a random judge or rand a member of the intelligence community to decide if someone's of hostile act or an . you know that's the big scare or this could bleed over and you could start kind of labeling any journalistic group or organization as

a. hostile or which is a bizarre term to begin with anyway which you know administration to administration that could change it seems awfully reactionary the bill passed out of committee on a fourteen to one vote with as you said senator ron wyden being the lone vote against it when asked for his thoughts regarding the wiki leaks provision he stated the damage done by wiki leaks to the united states is clear but with any new challenge to our country congress ought not react in a manner that could have negative consequences unforseen or not for our constitutional principles now ryan is a reactionary us congress. a dangerous us god. i think that it's just congress i don't know if it's there i don't know if we are ahead on the reactionary congress people as a whole are genuine genuinely reactionary so much of what what we're doing now is what congress is legislating is very much reactive and not very much proactive

that's really a lot what we're debating about when we have presidential elections in the last one so much of it was on the republican side a reflex of the last twenty years and on the democratic side to replace the last twenty years in terms of terrorism or national security or economics there's very little proactive conversation going on about things like automation or trade or whatever and i think that's one of the reasons why donald trump stood out compared to almost everybody else but that's besides the point but that is that is what congress always does they are reactionary they don't very few members i think in the history of congress you could probably point out maybe one hundred in the whole history of congress who sat there were really proactive in in doing guarding the civic rights in the constitutional rights of everyday americans you know in the last in the last couple of years i think there is you know ron and rand paul ron wyden is one. thomas massey justin amash and tulsa gabbert probably that's probably sadly about it that were really really i mean maybe jimmy duncan on walter

jones but that was it i mean the whole entire congress maybe you can get seven or eight good house members and one or two good senators and three or four senators who really care a lot about civic rights and the constitutional rights and and keeping those things in check it is pretty incredible how quickly we forget you know what the basic tenants of our constitution stands for and yes all those things are open for interpretation and debate i don't think our founding fathers you know wanted something they wanted something a little bit of debate that's why they didn't just say things hard right but at the same time you know wiki leaks is one of those things that presents a really interesting dynamic because you know many would argue that since the two thousand and sixteen election in the election of donald trump the julian assange and wiki leaks have strayed from their original beginnings as a politically unbiased organization you know fighting against state secrecy while others contend that most people's favorite realty of wiki leaks depends on whose information is being released so let me ask you as a as

a conservative if the leaks were releasing damning information on donald trump you know and love to see the republican party the way they have recently against the b. and c. you know would you still support them and their right to do that in their right to uncover these secrets well it depends on what they're released and they're releasing a thing that from. then you know i think that that's a person i mean but that's the truth so much of what the press considers breaking news is really just personal stuff that's embarrassing i think the one thing that we lease uniquely does try to do and i'm not that i work for them but it's it is unique to their institution their organization i don't see them ever trying to embarrass barack obama or embarrass. bernie sanders or hillary clinton or anybody or george bush or anybody i think they release information that is that people should know. now if we said information a dollar trump was secretly funding al qaeda in a proxy war in syria if he says that if they released that president trump was

spying on american journalists or that the n.s.a. was spying on each and every one of us or that mitch mcconnell was trying to prevent donald trump's staff from being filled or trying to prevent the sort of the i'm to be renominated twenty twenty yeah i would like to know that information as a as a voter as a journalist as somebody who cares about this country i think all that stuff is valid i think it's not valid as what the news often does cover which is just embarrassing information for the sake of ratings quick hits and stuff like that urge reporters speaking of ratings and quick hits recently c.n.n. had a panel of spit on to discuss the president says statements surrounding the tragedy in charlottesville when the panelists surprised c.n.n. anchor allison camerata by declaring they saw problems on both sides of the protest the following exchange took place let's take a listen do you think this new nazis and white supremacists are the same as those

who are protesting i think it's ridiculous to have me choose between. installing which is what i consider both groups are. so ryan how do you choose hitler. because it is the most ridiculous thing in the entire world but i mean this is what we've come down to these are the conversations that we need to sit there and i have there's real news going on and if charlottesville is brought up again it will be over a week and the media does more to give attention to these very friends radical groups than any they could ever do for themselves you know david duke would be literally a nobody of jake tapper and rachel maddow did not obsess about him each and every single solitary day the same is true as richard spencer the atlantic covered richard spencer censors speech back in december and forty five million people watched it on facebook i mean that he could never get that kind of audience and

we're going to sit there and bring random random americans together and say now which one which side are you on and how can we define you as a hate group i mean it is absolutely ridiculous and it doesn't engage the american public or move a dialogue whatsoever do you think because it's very patriotic thing that sort of thing green and a lot of i think baby boomers since you're with us or against us you know it goes back to the iraq war and we were told you're with us or against us and the first time i've heard it since a war again in a big capacity was during the election when the democrats and the clinton campaign sort of had this here with us or you're against us how dangerous is that. for everybody well i mean look at their act war what a disaster that was by having them mentality by sitting there and saying by telling pat buchanan he was an unpatriotic conservative because he dared question or dare question iraq war or even the like last week the talk of carlson or not last week but a few weeks ago talk carlson had on a war and he questioned the merits of continuing to stay in afghanistan and he was

called unpatriotic it's the way they silence you and shut you up and it is really really really. at times when people are doing that is the most crucial where you should ask questions that's really the truth. it most definitely is you know ron i want to i want to and this we got a budget you know minute to minute is everybody is snowflake these days i mean on the writing of that you know i mean because i believe that the first amendment is there to protect both popular speech and unpopular speech and unless you're actively shouting you know the fire in the theater or you know pointing out someone in the crowd and saying go get that person you cannot complain if somebody says something you don't like or criticizes you for saying something stupid and insensitive why is the right and the left having such a hard time understanding that the first amendment door swings both ways i think as everyone has heard feelings and wants to feel like they i don't know exactly why they run to it but i feel like it is more of

a leftist thing to try to silence them or stop them from speaking you know there's one thing about trying to do something and get public funds for it but if you are going to do a march for a park about i don't know anything anything you have a right to do it and no one has read shut you up and the media should stop jenning out these little french groups in the meantime and then and i'll say i'll call so you know i'll criticize the right too because it also seems like it's like the moment someone criticizes them for saying something outlandish or something controversial then it's like oh you don't criticize me you know that's my right but you're right i sure you know you're right i think that we're we're far too sensitive of a society right now and we need to have these good debates so i got to say senior contributor a regular politics rioters to thank you for coming on awesome conversation today. thank you thank all right as we go to break don't forget to let us know what you think of the topics we've covered on facebook and twitter see our poll shows at r t v dot com coming up sean stone talks to us foreign policy career with author and

investigative journalist they escobar and we preview would back them to night with male macare bonnie and natalie mcgill stay tuned to. all the world this day and all the news companies merely players but what kind of parties are into the american play r.t. america offers more. in many ways the news landscape is just like the theater and in the you could never house when you're on. so much part of the play all the world's a stage all the world's a stage all the world and we are definitely a player. the mission of newsworthy is to go to the people we give both sides we hear from both sides and we question more that's journalism bring it home to the american people.

fire and fury a city motto for a denarius star gary and as he tries to survive the game of thrones atop her dragons and the name the president has chosen for his policy and north korea so attached is the commander in chief to the medieval sounding plan that even fired his best friend and political guru steve banyan after he dared question the wisdom of detonating the korean peninsula with telethons of dragon fire and radiation so how untether is the fire in for race theory strategy from reality to shed some light on what might actually be coming down the road for the people of north korea's on stone sat down with investigative journalist that they ask are. it's very interesting that steve bannon before he was ousted as the chief of staff mentioned basically had said that there was no military solution for the u.s. because of the north korea that if there was a military conflict it would basically obliterate ten million people in south korea

and he said this is not a viable solution and then get ousted perhaps this shows the stronger of warmongers the more military industrial complex. chiefs basically stepping in and saying well we can't have voices like this undermining our strategy so what is the u.s. strategy looking like with as far as north korea is concerned sean that's a very good question because i'm sure the trump administration this is normal in fact as if the obama administration knew you fact when it when you sink that we're still talking award. there was demoted to fifty three armistice but the war is not formally ended and when you. i've been to north korea seven years ago my key question to everybody from the government that i met or was allowed to talk to was. what is your solution for the korean peninsula and they

would always say something very rational we will have to sit down with united states at the d.m.z. and finish the korean war and then we can release dart about some sort of deep dent because in fact our our major problem is not with south korea our major problem is with the united states in the war that still ongoing so the russians and the chinese they have like you know the latest russia chinese joint proposal which was voiced by foreign minister lavrov a few days ago and obviously refuted by the industrial military complex in the u.s. which is a double frees you freeze these absurd exercises military exercises u.s. sells korea which are essentially. rehearsal's for regime change you know some more lethal than ours and north korea stops their. military

nuclear program and then you start the negotiation from this point on the ones assuming as well that you're going to discuss the end of the korean war it's a very sound a proposal in at the same time when you have the americans making these threats which. you know the fire and fury trump threats it was completely absurd in culture and productive because they knew of anybody who. in washington knew that their response would be lethal and it was ok and it was all. there was an element of a joke the score years were threatening to send missiles over because they they know that if they ever did that the american response would be. massive but then china intervene and what the chinese said was a single beauty that because. basically they said it's not korea that unprovoked

you need a battery we are neutral meaning there is going to be regime change and the regime is going to be needed in north korea will be bombed and obviously with the retaliation against seoul with horrible unintended or intended consequences that you know about but if the united states backs north korea you'd be the last three we going to side with north korea and they were referring to their. strategic three d. which is even a fact since nine hundred sixty one and i'm sure everybody at the pentagon knows about it so these idle threats anyway there's only one solution which once again would be to have u.s. and north korea on the table and all the other major players around. oh right hawk watchers the time has finally come around once again to preview the comedic stylings of our deeds hit comedy new show back to whether you are on the left or the right completely bald or gorilla hair or your left coast or an east coast or

blonde or brunette house of stark or house of planet autobots and decepticons you will find something to love and a laugh every episode of er back to life unless of course you're the butt of their joke which you are then take pride in the fact that you finally made it because if you're in the crosshairs of redacted tonight then you must have done something right with your life for actually probably something wrong or something really really wrong wrong joining us now to preview this week's new episode of dogs and our two folks who most definitely are the right kind of wrong we're back to tonight's correspondents natalie mcgill and they only care about. things i love how you singled out harry people as an actual ethnic group but time and time i found that it was the snowball balder or you know any sideline is going to be put aside. this is hair and i have more growing out of things and so it works. it's

a girl's. well natalie i heard that burger king this is. if i have this right sort of took a page out of game of thrones and has been active in the. process. oh you know south america oh ok. special regional suspension is a regional issue so yeah so at the burger king in argentina they have this annual event called stacker day which is when they for one day of the year they sell this massive like five layer bacon cheese. burger for half off and this year data they decided to give half of the profits from stacker day to this company called atomic lab which is this company that makes three d. printed prosthetics for free like they give them out for free and burger king is kind of exploiting these people because in their ad campaign it's essentially saying like well now you have this extra hand to like properly grill.

me my burger is which can lead to diabetes which can lead to this of course or something about something we're giving props for and then you have an accident. it's just like it's going to pick the wrong charity settling it locally you get what you want. to. buy a book. and i hear you have a clip yes. this is me talking. to you but i know what you're paying to cattle you're being too skeptical of burger king's motives and i assure you my skepticism isn't rooted in the fact that fast food leaves the bascule are diseases that will increase the number of baby teachings in the u.s. to two point three million in thirty years or that hands free is actually the only way to. give americans the eat something healthy. it's rooted in the fact that it's

dangerous to rely on corporations to be our saviors especially when that same corporations ad campaign showed real burger king locations on fire in order to prove their burgers are flame broiled that ad seems as effective as an ad with a motel six on fire with the words will leave the light on for you what i'm talking about is corporate social responsibility the idea that corporations care about issues or even make you feel like you did something good with your money just as long as it doesn't hurt their profits. for the really good so you're also busy. how cool is that to be a psychologist who specializes in the practice of. well you don't have to do anything that's based in science at all and you just get paid eighty one

million dollars by the cia it's amazing and. for just coming up with creative ways to make people suffer you know play music really loudly you know force feeding people forced nudity waterboarding came up with waterboarding so it's actually some good news because you may have forgotten about the torture or that came out two years ago when we found out that the government was stuffing people's switch. i don't remember where i was when i learned that and. what a beautiful moment. but anyways so the cia hasn't faced any accountability for all the illegal stuff that was happening in the enhanced interrogation program so it's actually comforting to see that there is. lawsuits going forward the psychologist did settle out of court little bit of the eighty one million actually

. i'm just saying covered their legal fees. for a grand. a year taken care of their retirement. we got them so. finally i think. mostly doing this week doing any other celebrities are no no no isn't military does for a complex that's what i heard yes so we talked this week about that nation article that came out a couple weeks ago laid out the argument from the same intelligence professionals who said there were no w m d's in iraq that it was unlucky likely that russia hacked the d n c among those being that it was a hack it was likely to leak was it internally for people from people who had access to computers and so yeah so we was basically saying that. the mainstream

media is refusing to correct this issue you know because after months and months of saying russia did or pressured into russia did it the odds of them coming back to me like oh yes that we're spending. a few articles talking about that i'm working on some really really special specials about it yes. it will make a great history channel documentary right now. you know it's not news you know. right now it's going to talk about. you know our for a while ago where we had a story line we're going to stick with you know this was. going to go to show rather to. change show runners. but. always a pleasure. to tonight which airs every brought in our to america and we're back to you which features a. those are going to lose their own pedals every thursday or to mark.

starlight starbright best image of a dying star you'll see tonight astronomers at the european southern observatory in chile use their very large telescope interferometer to measure the motions of gases in the extended atmosphere surrounding stars what they captured is being hailed as the most detailed image ever captured of a star other than our own sun ontario is a red supergiant in the constellation scorpius and scientists believe she's at the end of her life very large telescope located on terrace which is almost six hundred and twenty light years from earth and managed to capture quite a new mystery to be solved what happens to all the mass lost when a star goes supernova the turbulent surface observed on terra shows flows of gas are up to much further out from the surface of the star than thought previously so while the images may not be perfect to our naked eyes science is looking at the

very first map of a dying star over three and a half quadrillion miles from earth goosebumps when he are recognizing our place in the universe where the clues to the mysteries of life are separated by light years so take a moment to look up into the night sky wherever you are and make a wish and from all of us here at washing the hocks shining and that is our show for you to bear remember everyone in this world we are not told your love the loves who are told you all i love you i am so i roll with inter and on top of the ball and keep watching all those hawks so there are never a great big but. it's

called the feeling of coming. every the world should experience for me and you'll get it on the open road. the old according to just. welcome to my world come along for the ride. what you have for breakfast yesterday why would you put those through. your wife. now i did give you due to two more. years of people been saying about rejected in the us actually just full on awesome throughout the only show i go out of my way to live on c.n.n. we live in the really packs a punch to sleep yampa is the john oliver of hearty americans do the same we are

apparently better than the flu vaccines that i see people you never heard of love back to the night my president of the world bank paid money doesn't really mean it seriously send us an e-mail. our culture is awash in lives dominated by streams of never ending electronic hallucinations that merge back fiction until they are indistinguishable we have become the most deluded society on politics as a species of endless and needless political theater politicians have morphed into celebrity are two ruling parties are in reality one party to corporate and those who attempt to puncture this. breathless universal to make news to sign the push through the cool t.v. and exploitation to me a little more force so far to the margins of society including by

a public broadcasting system that has sold its soul for corporate money that we might as well be mice squeaking against an avalanche but squeak we must. take kick. and it can go both of them all. over evil because i mean for me to do this is would be

a job that would. lead them if i made it here we go there will push the oil up they point he said key to keep us a poor man i would only gee could that she wouldn't i have said to me i put the omitted the. can you could visit him and pushed up what is that he can dish here so i can in wide fit cash might they get him in math i mean and if they come we are soon to leave go on this with your business with the least. bit this is star street words that you. believe they flew through they. be undiminished with you really. i don't want to get shot you busily get shot you dollars should. know my name is and tell you how mellow but everybody calls me to do.
