and all of these politicians talking about bill to protect the children won't because their parents don't want to parent right i mean i'm sorry if teenagers on youtube want to eat stupid things for clicks and then they get hurt and go to the emergency room everybody watches that and says hey i don't want to eat that because of our go to the emergency care. now it's sort of strange. that well there was that there was a study actually in the journal pediatrics and ages one to three accounted for seventy two percent of cleaning products to little babies a poisoning so there's more time when there's cleaning household products forty percent of those poisonings came from cleaners in spray bottles so tie let me ask why are we regulating spray bottles that's a good question you shouldn't say that too loud this close to capitol hill we might start seeing them suddenly be like oh my god spray bottles we have to go regulate the you know i mean of course you put your you put labels on it and all that but i think it's just because it's like you know hey this is a new fangled fancy thing that you know these things of have only come out like

these positive a little recently so it was i mean that's a funny you know people say like they've never been around but this washer have made for a long and you know back in our day we had a deep and tired read out of the box where this is and have our there was what i want to bother you know what's really fascinating to i was according to the consumer product safety commission there have been a total of five deaths in the u.s. related the to the ingestion of around one hundred five out of three hundred million people and most of those because we're dulce who are suffering from dementia there are even kids that this kind of smells like that you know of the app the the candy bar with the with the razor blade in a later that's never ever happened that only people poisoned by hollowing can you work within the same family so. yeah you can drag which by the way were a government shutdown so if you wanted to regs ronnie get them now and bring them back grab some for me too because there's no one there to stop us. crazy oh i'm

we'll it's interesting because i think it's so funny that there is this idea that we have to it's always like keeping teenagers from smoking big dean edgers from drinking keeping them from doing drugs keeping them from having sex will just follow not to do it and tell them everything is dangerous and it seems that chuck schumer is so shocked that kids you know do you do cruises up the stairs actually study valerie cornell college of human ecology had studied this back in the early twenty five twenty two thousand this idea of why do kids do this so what she said is teens often decide that the benefits of risky behavior immediate gratification gratification or peer acceptance outweighs the wrist. and we need to we needed studies multiple studies to explain the guys on capitol hill. teens do stupid stuff for attention and if you tell them they're not supposed to they're just going and even though it means they're going to make more so you keep bringing it up to me it's just teams are going to be teams and you know johnny olds going to

swallow the marbles are all going to be sad but it'll be swell when the marble anyway as we go to break card watchers don't forget to let us know what you think of the topics are covered up facebook and twitter see our full soles of our dot com coming up former cia analyst ray mcgovern and the hoarseness discuss the n.s.a. and the f.b.i. suddenly on sunday the butterfingers and pope agencies are now being accused of accidentally on purpose leaving controversial important data state to the logic. but call it mind your year again better because like nine hundred talk to brock there said this was there your choice of

a tape to go to all kinds of live crazy eyes and yeah it sure. are experiencing a bit of a fall back. but you're right the stand had. moved from what i saw. i know that i know i might try and i rather doubt that i'll look for more than any kid and that. only the unlucky but i'm going to cut him then you. can keep an eye on what i have to lose each on a phone call is not good and it is living. a long way. hi michelle the downside of. a lot of the. members of reality i don't know enough to. get it's

call for best choice for a guy on the i knew how you're going to pay off the time when terry has said elaine who knew she ought to give a. mile farther than half of the whole fuck around mr hates it for jim and then i hope that our premier class. leaves the money. applied for many clubs over the years so i know the game inside guides. football isn't only about what happens on the pitch for the final school it's about the passion from the families it's the age of the super manager billionaire owners spend spend each image of the twenty million and one player. it's an experience like nothing else want to be true so i want to share what i think what i know about the beautiful guy my great so will transfer. and

makes this minute. thank you. in two thousand and seven after the public outcry over the bush administration's use of warrantless domestic surveillance a federal court ordered the n.s.a. to preserve a trove of intercepted web data that was at the heart of a legal dispute over domestic surveillance well two exactly nobody is surprised it now turns out that apparently the esteem the wiretapping agency lost approximately seven years of controversial intercepted data the data you see was lost during a broad housecleaning effort and had to go to make room for you guessed it the new surveillance data ironically this news appeared within days of president trump citing a bipartisan bill broadly reauthorizing the n.s.a. surveillance authorities even as republicans in congress raise hell over

a classified memo that allegedly documents the various surveillance abuses committed by the f.b.i. and in the russian collusion investigation so to bring us some clarity if possible in a week of wide ranging surveillance news we welcome former cia analyst ray mcgovern to the show welcome ray thank you very much. i got i was grew up about what exactly was in the data that you have a say purge to just tell our viewers why was it important to hold on to that they just miraculously lost by accident i'm sure. well tyrone nobody knows this because it hasn't been much in the press but in april of last year there was a study done of the faces that is the foreign intelligence surveillance act the court judgments on things presented to them by the year done by the obama administration and no fewer than eighty five percent of them were trying to be

illegal and illegally given to people who are not authorized to get them he said kinds of things that can be used not only in prosecutions but as blackmail or in leaks to the press so this is a great country isn't it i mean this is the situation it's not only bush it's not only his fellow trouble it's obama it's everyone who plays fish the loose with the the laws and the clash of two sions fourth amendment protects us presumably or at least literally from illegal searches and seizures without a court warrant. no matter how you slice it it looks pretty bad for the n.s.a. has it was not a lot of criticism over the last well forever. do you think this is the chaos of and this is a question i often have because i don't know how to answer it because i'm between two things is it just a case of missed mismanagement and incompetence or is this deliberate keeping

information and a deliberate coverup. well i like to be very charitable and forgiving but even i still much of a stretch to think this is gross incompetence so low there is gross incompetence by the bushel at n.s.a. now this is deliberate let's face it these things were incredibly embarrassing not only was it n.s.a. but the once it f.b.i. and this isn't a question it's that the same materials who sent lead it just that at the same time by both agencies i mean give me a break they had to people's because if you left one with this information then you don't protect everyone who is involved so this is pretty sinister this is the deep state in action and i'm sure that representative newness has information bearing on these things even though the tapes themselves have been deleted you know it's interesting is the in those cynical look at things we'll have

to ask you know the warrantless surveillance camera when the george w. bush didn't seem to have a long lasting effect on public opinion in considering how little progress we've seen you know tragically neither denied snowden revelations at least you know in the decision makers do you realistically think we'll ever see a truly open real debate a government surveillance state in our country in the halls of congress are we ever going to see that. well this is what to watch for tyrone. were these to happen now is representative of newness and he she gave the information he has to the attorney general the attorney general of pressure can be a grand jury the grand jury issue indictments and you know even though it is a stretch at this point to have the perception in a sense these crooks are necessary because they say officials. do deserve the presumption of innocence but you should get a jury to decide that not mcgovern which i wrote

a tab of thank you you were very right on that front if that interesting ok the news comes out the same week that congress reauthorizes the government's fi's authorities and also the same week that this classified memo surfaces allegedly detailing intelligence community surveillance abuses when monitoring the trump campaign so. what do you think the president has allies would have had some qualms about signing off on such broad surveillance powers after he spent so much of the last year and his campaign talking about the deep state now the state was going to get him and we had to worry about it and yet now here we are he's giving the deep seas that is not just getting in bed with the dave states he's married he's signed over is that he's adopted a couple of kids they got a dog like their or their buddy buddy now. isn't that odd then that makes one wonder what right what's going on help me well that was the question i could help

you use it isn't that what isn't well thought of. i don't have to figure trump i mean he knows that he himself and his closest advisors like. general flynn were victims of this skullduggery this playing fast and loose with the fourth amendment and why he signed that thing where well he sort of change his mind he was going to sign it and then later they all we have moved aside and well you know he makes compromises and the deep state does have a chapter and verse on trump himself so this is not a new tactic you know when james komi the head of the f.b.i. when trump was president elect and first few weeks of his presidency when he lingered behind on the the sixth of january two thousand and seventeen and said no mr trump. brennan and rogers have current but this is very delicate information we

have this dossier and it's not for a fight but tests terribly scarlets and you say shit about what you did in moscow and it which is which is one that you know that that's out there and you know it was just just to let you know who it said all about you know all about you yeah that's what tyrone your dad told me happens when one comes into high office they take you aside and say now he know we have this information so the bottom line is if you don't play ball with the deep state you could be scurrilously depos for what it one reason or another whether it's real or whether it's fabricated either i remember about well actually. my father won because it was very interesting within a few months and suddenly was having you know twenty three cia agents brought him into. the basement of the capitol and essentially just posed and when i asked him all these questions about how he won and all that just kind of letting their

presence known there and then when he was governor he didn't look at it none of them had any last name so i talked to your dad. this remarkable you know it's illegal it's beefsteak works and they do have lots of goods and lots of people and when people say what americans say as they did after it's notan talked about turn key tyranny most americans said well i'm clean. but that be afraid of well. we turned to to a stasi member stussy who's the east german secret service people who kept a list listening here if people should just leave it down there and the lives of other states know what it's like that great film and we talk to bush gunk schmidt who is a like ten it kind of ruined stassi research what's going on what do you say to people who say i've got nothing to hide the brother may if you'll be says this. is terribly naive so he just so you were ticked this information is too loose or they

get you don't get to decide how it's you will loose and just leave it to a part of it it's being used against you is too tired of it it. is a first. that's expert and i was reading we all have to go there is that idea that we get so we're naive in a world that you know where you have major politicians going don't upset being the intelligence community don't have such a deep state or they'll get you know and you know but none of us are supposed to be paranoid about things like that they have all our information you know they've literally given us every reason to be paranoid and terrified and buy whatever it is or agree to everything i want to ask you if i gave you if i gave you the superpower right now to change like one thing in our intelligence community to make it work better to get away from what we're talking about what would that be. i would put in

a new national intelligence director of impeccable integrity now you may have to look around in the country for somebody but you would find when the president is asleep or you were never here for him but his predecessor was a crook so if you want to give the director of national intelligence more than just to truly or authority over what happens in the intelligence committee you put it very in there like stansfield turner admiral or stars u.s. navy who served as the director of central intelligence underachievement carter he just died three days ago when you were who worked for him go they needed it wasn't afraid it was you try to play it on the president's team and if you had and that noses out of joint it did it was enough for it popular but it made the community work that's what you need community that's what we've missed since i mean turner well thank you as always very for coming on and giving us your perspective on these

issues facing us today it's a truly a great pleasure thank you are most welcome. nearly four hundred fifty two or seventy five percent of the world's active volcanoes are found in the ring of fire a twenty five thousand square foot area in the basin of the pacific ocean and one of those is about to erupt the manila in the middle of philippines mt may own the centerpiece of a unesco biosphere reserve has been raised to a threat level for just one spot below the highest warning available for eruption detection eruptions of steam and rock began in december of two thousand and seventeen causing the danger zone surrounding the volcano to be increased to a full eight kilometer radius the volcano may own as over eight thousand feet tall and sits above a mostly agricultural region in the area but don't worry the philippines office of civil defense are evacuating not only tens of thousands of people. also setting up

evacuation areas for paid was water buffaloes cows and poultry as of january tate there were six thousand nine hundred seventy three families or twenty six thousand people housed in evacuation centers with that number expected to hit seventy five thousand and more if the eruption is as massive as some fear and that i really hope i really hope that everybody gets out of there and time before you talk about the spectacle of nature that's that's you see it right there where there were way forget we forget and i made sure that i do hope that they can get those people out of the path of the thing that is our show for you today everybody and remember everyone in this world we are no longer told your loved enough so i tell you all i love you i am tired robot and i'm top of the wall if people are watching those hawks and have a great night everybody. join me every thursday on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to guests of the

world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. the four page memo detailing extensive fights of course to be used change the course of what is known as russia gate also does the trumpet ministration syria policy make any sense and who's the real bully trump in the media. well.

a brawl erupted in the israeli parliament during a speech by the u.s. vice president on moving the american embassy to jerusalem. to deal with a humanitarian crisis in northern syria amid a deadly turkish offensive against kurdish forces. britain's top army official demands for more funding to counter the supposed threat from russia. the latest on these stories and much more going to stay with us now for.

hello and welcome to crossfire where all things are considered. well the four page memo detailing extensive use changed the course of what is known as russia gate also does the trumpet ministration syria policy make any sense and who's the real bully. or the media. cross talking real news i'm joined by my guest mark sloboda he's an international affairs and security analyst we also have alex christopher oh he's a director and writer for the duran dot com and we have dimitri bobbitt he's a political analyst with sputnik international or a gentleman as usual crosstalk rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want i always appreciate let's let me go to you first this four page memo now if you watch fox it means something and it means something big you watch c.n.n.

you might not even hear about it is this a partisan thing or is there something they are there to be honest we don't really know yet do we i mean you have fox which is building it up as explosive scandal is bringing down the obama administration is going to connect obama to the d.o.j. to the f.b.i. to the clinton campaign that they were spying on trump they were surveilling they were surveilling trump and you have c.n.n. them sent b.c. who are saying there's nothing there i mean the the only thing you can really do is release that memo and glenn greenwald is calling to release the memo a lot of news a lot of people from toulon assad's everybody saying we've got to release the memo because we don't really know laura ingram said on her show that there's one democrat who has read this memo which is located in some secret room for classified information one democrat while all the republicans have actually gone through that memo and they're shocked and that's a quote they're shocked at what they read mark what do you make of all this yeah

it's hard to know what to make of it because of the part of the nature of the russia gate scandal that it concerns one thing we have to say that we can all yell hash tag release the memo it's so popular right now but it's the republican controlled congress that can release the memo or trump's white house that can order the memo declassified and release it to everyone if they want it released well then release it already stop trying to make a public theater out of it let's see if it really is i mean from what i understand they're going to go through a process that will take like my. released ok well that's nineteen days for this part of the. lunchroom fight to continue ok i mean it will see but you know one of the interesting things is that all while the new this new phase of bill the seven o two bill that allows the n.s.a. to continue this process of surveillance i mean the irony of ironies here because it was probably because. it allowed something like this to happen they renewed it

signed it where was the debate no well. there's no doubt that the n.s.a. will continue spine and this whole russia gate story will continue. wiretapping of americans what what what what what i'm interested in is where will people understand that this is just i mean i keep my diary they accused russia of meddling in the elections in germany france serbia italy well ladyship. and these were serious an american politician saying that it was not just on paper you know saying that all russia could possibly try to meddle in the elections in serbia well there are also smaller countries like much to dorney and they're afraid that russia you know you can convince our viewers right now that the united states and its security agencies are not trying to affect russia's upcoming presidential

election absolutely. out of the question you know there are such beautiful people there you know all the story of not all need you know is. who he is. only is there a racist. participant in the so-called russian marxists so he's he's considered by many other ways of the old liberal but he's a quote unquote liberal leader of the anti. put in a position and the anti-corruption chris say days he's presented the last why it's been convicted for fraud of french guzman why is it being connected for fraud in shady business deals and they he has a problem with. a french perfume company and not with the russian go on there with russian companies however it's an interesting case when the united states decided to throw all they want with a nationalist with a rhesus you know this is

a new technology. and they did it in ukraine they did it in the middle east but in russia they're probably doing it for the first time which will make this election cycle maybe interesting maybe because we go back to the trump issue which is interesting because for the last week when we hear about trump that he's unstable mentally that he's sick is he going to last you know off four years or eight years get on a scale and show us your way so that you had the whole media even despite that you were this. guy this guy used to be president physically mentally but they were given unlimited powers to spy and surveil they gave him an unprecedented military budget voted both by democrats and republicans so you can see going back to what you said the absurdity of it all well let's talk about another blank check here let's talk about syria mark hughes followed probably better than anyone i know. the more i read about what the u.s. is trying to do in syria the more i do not understand other than intentional

destabilization. of the country forever so that's what they've been doing for the last six years it legally arming training and salary militants allied with al qaeda to overthrow the syrian government the trump administration finally after months in end that obama policy but they doubled down on supporting the kurds which are affiliated with the white p.g. which the us has listed as a terrorist group largely because of its insurgent actions in turkey against the turkish regime of earlier but what we're having now diem is that we have the us sowing the turks and the kurds under the bus the same bus i mean the contradictions the more you look at it the more the contradictions are are jarring ok well the problem is they're trying to remove. my and their diversity who was actually not in syria before two thousand the united states and you have lost you which. you know

a country at least four times more important than syria and iraq the u.s. and they have already lost you know their policy was so destructive not only destroyed syria but also destroyed their own released input it will continue oh it's one of the things is if we look at what secretary tillerson had to say about syria which i thought it was like a visit to the twilight zone and could make a whole program on it but the the there will be a embargo a blockade a sanction against rebuilding syria the u.s. will actively push that. the refugees that left that went to europe will not be able to come back because they'll be nothing to come back to so this perpetuates this problem. exactly and will will actually see because it won't be any reconstruction more. more refugees flooding into europe and i mean again who are the winners in all of this i don't see anyone just because the united states is trying to fight. assad iran and russia parties in

europe the united states and they you hate so much i mean they will be asking these questions and then the mainstream media and then you will say russians russians are sprayed all but he was and it is so obvious i mean could you not have seen that turkey would never ever in a million years allow any sort of kurdish state quasi state border security forces whatever they call it under their country a presence underneath turkey of thirty million kurds in turkey there was no way turkey would ever allow that in a million years they don't see this truck campaigned on ending the process of nation building ending the process that euphemism of democracy promotion and ending regime changes which he said as as counterproductive and destructive to u.s. policy across the middle east he also said what are we doing in syria if hillary clinton has her way we will be starting world war three with russia in syria over

al-qaeda and this is the trump administration has compete clearly capitulated to the old guns and they're running trams foreign policy tillerson now sit and permanent in deafening as you open it with every occupation of syria their goals are now open to regime change once again back to the obama era confronting iran because iran is not allowed to have influence in syria no matter what damascus said i think tillerson should give us a list of the countries in the world that are allowed to decide who their allies are and which ones aren't because it's always complained in eastern europe that countries are allowed to ally with and join nato if they want but syria's not allowed to ally with iran he wouldn't say they're going to go i think we need to explain to all of you who might know what you don't use in the host today's world happened in syria what happened was a.
