let's say excitement and celebration over the release of this memo when it comes out it's going to be a silver bullet to shut this down yes i think some of the cancer may be cut out of the bureaucracy and maybe some of it won't be my concern is that it is fundamental purpose to make sure there could be no rapprochement with moscow that relations would stay very bad unfortunately i think it's largely succeeded in that purpose i have people who are defending trump referring to the seal memo for example say and it's full of russian dirt in putin's propaganda and we have no way of knowing where this british spook got this or how reliable sources were how much of this was just made up because they were getting paid your client wants dirt will give you dirt well but the russian bad narrative has been so entrenched now i'm not sure how we get it out you know that's good that leave that's interest that's a very interesting well and i agree with them completely because they die it's been cast on that element there ok across the board you can there if you question it to your viewer your europe. your useful idiots but the interesting

thing also that well you know the media the i mean again holder the other side though is that we see the level of corruption at the highest echelons of law enforcement so you get the worst best worst possible words or worlds here go headly go jump in well here's what it is this is a dish information operations against russia period that's what this is and you can't have a decision from ation operation by only going to one side in other words you've been talking about the liberal media again i'm a republican. supporter and i used to work as the lead investigative reporter for breitbart let me say this breitbart has been just as bad on this issue and the right conservative media this is why i say this is a distant permission operation about russia that succeeded not just because the left media the new york times washington post m s n b c and so on but because the right media with stories like the you. one story for instance which demonizes

russia which i hate hillary clinton that story is false and you could see that when bannon got in trouble my former boss steve bannon got in trouble for saying the it was treated that treasonous trump tower meeting right steve admitted in his apology as walk back he hates russia to get what you don't have again here. i'll let you keep going after our short break and after that short break we'll continue with our discussion about that infamous memo stay with us.

would have no chance of surviving in the want. one come at a time but usually. china puts a lot of effort into making up for this cruel mistake of nature. china has penned the breathing has become something of a production line. it's almost as though they've been three d. printed and put on show for the public. several. dedicated scientists will be for nothing if. be encouraged in captivity it's not as though they don't practice a tool but in the same way they do everything else this proud to twins and has no idea that a special potion was formulated just for the. years

ago i traveled across the united states exploring america's deadly love affair with the. bad guy trying to get to one of my family members he went had better a lot better and i think it's fair and hurting whenever my my baby says my book was published in the year two thousand more than half a million americans have been killed by falling into the u.s. . team yes i did yes this is a middle school we go through drills and we put ourselves in real scenarios it was interesting to see who actually got hit by the plane. i just saw i did to return to the subject to track down each gun owner who i'd met and photographed those years

ago i don't know this but we are not. welcome back across the uk where all things are considered reminder we're discussing the release of the memo. ok let me go back to lee and watch and i want to ask all three of you the same question here i mean the mother investigation goes on with the release of this memo is that now wolf his investigation or you know lower in its importance here is that there's going to be depending on what it is i mean we've all heard a lot of different rumors you know it's a little snippets here i think we all have a pretty good idea what it is and it would seem to neg ate the whole russia gate narrative even though as james has pointed out. in the program the damage has

already been done ok they can walk away from this in the damage is already dense although to leap first does this nullify the mother mother investigation go ahead well it won't here's why what they're talking about the feis stuff happened before muller was on the investigation but there's a wider point though this has not been about russia election interference or russian hacking for ever muller immediately went on a fishing expedition with thing and that is one hundred percent clear there was no attempt for instance if you're legitimately trying to find it in collusion you look for a quid pro quo where's the where's the the what's in trump offer where's the investigation into what trump was getting back for this suppose an election interference in other words that's what you'd have to do every prosecutor knows that a molar knows that too the reason he's going far afield the reason why would he interview. even steve bannon right why would he look into this one and

keep magnitsky act. corp the reason why is this is a dish information campaign one of the people who people on the left and right need to watch out for here is a guy bill browder bill browder has been pushing this anti russian narrative and he is key to this whole thing and he is fooled both the left and the right and i gotta say that k. but everybody knows that it's just not that i think that you're absolutely right but you are really broadening out here ok i want to make sure people and because you have a deep knowledge of just like ha does and james as well yeah i mean let's maybe i should rephrase my question what about the perception of the of this investigation once we find out all of the highest echelons of the f.b.i. the d.o.j. have weaponized their position against their political opposition which i've said before and i'll say it again turns the us into a banana republic ok go ahead ha what trump must do and i believe what he will do

is fire moeller and when the indignation is heard throughout the universe from c.n.n. and assembly see all trump needs to say is this i fired mahler because there's no evidence of any collusion or any criminal activity from me or any of my associates pertaining to the mission of the probe hillary clinton for example actually committed crimes she removed top secret special access program intelligence that the highest level classification from super secure government locations she transferred them in a creative manner that nobody talks talks about from those locations on her on encrypt once on encrypted server that's a crime under the espionage act u.s. code seventy three f. what peter struck did is remove gross negligence five times the references which directly relates to the espionage act and that statute you don't even need gross negligence because she paid by parking on a five thousand dollars the issue that i don't. know what you're doing and i'm

going to cut you i'm not overwhelmed that you went down this app. but it actually proves the point here james brings up this point we have these two narratives out there and depending on how you see politics is what you're going to stress i agree because hillary clinton was given a free pass over and over and over again donald trump like a murder don't like him there is no evidence that he committed a crime not yet after all this time ok though the other side and so you have c n n n n b c do not want to talk about the crimes of hillary clinton and her mafia gang because that's essentially what they are ok and all they can do is focus on me going to james their all they can do is focus on the what they believe what they hope what they pray for our sins of donald trump but in all those words i just used that's not a legal go ahead james i hope ha is right that molar will be out i think that means

also getting rid of rod rosenstein the deputy attorney general and possibly replacing jeff sessions with somebody will actually do something about this stuff but my concern is this is that molar is captain ahab going after the great orange whale here and even if they can't find a real crime real collusion just like with general flynn and george papadopoulos you try to trap somebody into a process crime that's why he's so keen to interview trump personally and try to find some way to twist his words into either perjury or obstruction of justice so he would have though there was no crime of collusion or there's no crime but all you can get him to say but in the process of the investigation he did commit a crime he committed perjury when he talked to me and that's what they're really hoping to do he wants the nail some more to the wall to justify saying that i think at the end of the day he's not going to do a one on one i don't think his lawyers are going to let him do that ok that's the typical bravado and i don't know is any way fires real or you know it will. lead to

an interesting point because what i what i think is again when i talked about these battling. narratives let's let's just say for example ok the memo is released at the end of the week it will have an earthquake effect ok who knows soon after mother may give his assessment here the problem is is who's going to believe which narrative ok because impeachment as we all know is not a legal process it's a political process so even if mohler says trump is guilty of this if it goes to the house of representatives if the other narrative is so much more can palings then then we get this gridlock oh we get the train crash ok because even irrespective what mahler has to say it may not have the political implications that he and the liberal elites and the media want and that's going to be a very interesting parlay if it happens go headly this is what i think the danger

is when i say this is a different information campaign it's really important to understand this all but narratives lead to russia bad that's what i'm saying the one democrat narrative leads to russia bad we know that that's clear but the republican narrative also leads to russia bad and that's the point this is been a very successful dissin permission campaign because the facts are actually not that difficult to determine anybody can look into this for themselves and learn the facts of this case they can see what crowd strike did they can see who didn't tell us and that's guy who's that that russian let's just talk about that she's that russian lawyer that's all you need to say she's already being cast as like natasha right in the rocky and bullwinkle right she's that russian lawyer and and and she is that russian lawyer to both the left and the right the right believe this is what the right believes because my that's where i live i live on the right people

on the right falsely believe that this was a setup that she was put in there by the clintons because she's connected to fusion g.p.s. . yes and we know precision g.p.s. blah blah they don't even get what's going on there and the left goes oh no no she's that russian warrior so she just she was sent in by putin they all actually agree on it and i think the good thing is ok but not only have we started to wake up and figure this out on both sides i hope so but i don't have a lot of hope but this is a an oasis ok right here on crosstalk ok because we'll talk about all of the issues here i don't have much hope for m.s.m. because i i watched morning joke and meager today i mean what what universe that they live in i have no idea what they're talking about here ha i mean i think we all kind of agree that you know the die is been cast here i mean us pressure relations are for a generation done ok and i actually i don't really think about it much anymore ok because i'm not much of the to be done about it but what i think is really interesting here in for me personally it's not about trump it's not about hillary

it's about the the future of the republic institutions and the very idea of democracy bernie sanders was burned ok he got it was stolen from him we had the clinton clan they tried to steal the general ok and now they want the same people they want to overturn the democratic decision of the american people and they don't care one hoot if they have to destroy everything in the process go ahead ha. well this is all about. that you said democrats cheating bernie sanders debbie wasserman schultz being forced to step down then losing one point two billion dollars with a failed candidate who was under an actual criminal investigation so. in terms of competing narratives there was evidence of crimes she committed crimes but she komi and struck and mccabe said she didn't intentionally commit the crimes she was the

subject of the end of the investigation with tromp he's not the subject of any investigation as it's always this nebulous ambiguous i will people around him and there's a whole lot of smoke we can't prove anything. i think it's despicable that the democratic party chose to start a new cold war because they couldn't rely on anyone else sees yet and they couldn't they certainly couldn't rely on anything that bernie sanders stood for that's what he did is that she did bernie that's part of this struck the destruction that i'm talking about ha ha because you know the democratic party is shown itself to for what it is absolutely corrupt or james let me go to you will if if komi goes to jail will you send him a file in a cake i mean will you feel sorry for comi ok. seriously because i think you know you know what he forgave you know the irony is he a major hillary didn't go to jail because of that he probably might go to jail james go ahead please don't i know i'm not going to send him

a file of the cake or i won't send him anything no look obviously there are a lot of people here should or should go to jail i have to tell you honestly i am more concerned about the bigger picture as it's been pointed out by my two colleagues this isn't just on the left that russia bad or it's the right as well the damage is done and i'm not complacent about it because if you look at the way we're digging down deep into syria even though isis is on the ropes we have no reason to be there we should be declaring victory and getting out we're arming lethal weapons to ukraine we're probing. russia's territorial waters with their aircraft i am afraid you know they keep talking about nine hundred thirty nine putting on the march this is more like nine hundred forty hey hey now here is james meeting the very minute he had been hit with a noble to do it let me jump in here gentlemen i want to make a quick statement to to you and to our viewers i. robert perry passed away a few days ago over a consortium news dot com very courageous very brave very honest journalist

we're all going to miss him very much very much condolences to his family and i can tell you there's no one in the world that will ever be able to replace the dignity that man in his writing so god bless to him and his family and i and that's how we end our program i want to thank my guests in washington and in los angeles and thanks to our viewers for watching us here at our to see you next time and remember . the currency market itself is still on track to eclipse the global banking all of which is what we need what we want and i've always said it's a bank starkiller that's the primary use of bed going to hurt.

the concept of paying to perform. myself to. read what. has most of. you. in the home stuff done. i'm. just going to close. so we'll see if you think. that he could with. yes get more deep mission.

across europe municipalities are taking their water supply back from private companies to me this is the simple song alone even some company elsewhere though they invite private companies to take over the utilities many by the. actual mr guys who got. to go. i've been this is. just because i'm out looking. for you bill brought up locals are ready to stand up for the basic human right of access to water it's about water but it's also over much more than war it's about the hurt and the redistribution of all. this. debt

downwards if you want or what. the b.b.c. is accused of bias the u.k.'s house of lords questions the corporation's brigs it coverage follows the release of damning reports we hear from one of the office. i think it's pretty cold but a public broadcaster risk you get some time with so dramatically in this direction people look for political issues over the top. donald trump is court saying he'll definitely release the contents of a controversial classified memo alleging abuse of surveillance powers by the f.b.i. . through. the war on. israel is to sue to new zealand is who allegedly convinced the pop star lord please cancel the television concert.

great to have you with is this our my name's neil harvey this is artie international. the b.b.c. has been accused of bias in its briggs it coverage with the majority of its guests said to hold a pro e.u. stance that's according to several recent reports which of prompted anger in britain's house of lords. for it was a previously has become the supporter over for organizing. for your new dave recruits to mr to the dude who said to me recently that his job in brussels is move even more difficult this is return he makes a small advance for his problems of mine for the b.b.c. . to dawdle because you do have a huge allergy. gallatin. the report was by an organization called

civic tasm a amusingly called it the brussels broadcasting corporation and they found that over a long time period ten years up to two thousand and fifteen out of more than four thousand guests who were asked to speak about the european union just a tiny fraction of one hundred thirty two of them were in favor of brics is today's report is from the institute of economic affairs and it allies two of the b.b.c.'s key panel political shows if you like so question time and any questions and they found that out of six hundred panelists who were invited over the last eighteen months two thirds of them supported remaining in the european union with just a third of them supporting bricks it not only that but if you recategorized the people who did support remaining in the european union but are now implementing it inside the government you'd still have a sixty forty split against bracks it has

a little bit of what they're talking about the leave boat has left us with a group of leaders who having lit the fire of all runaway brakes it is a historic mistake for us with it it breaks my heart i lie in bed at night worrying about the outcomes of once again i'm the sole lever on a b.b.c. panel the b.b.c. has sent us a statement responding to this latest i.e. a report it says that these programs are not single issue programs and also that it . doesn't just invite politicians it invites commentators and leading figures from across the life of spectrum in this country it also says the b.b.c. is no longer reporting on this binary choice leave all remain which the electorate faced in the referendum than now giving the public the opportunity to hold politicians to account over the way the implementing brax it. tauriel guidelines of the corporation however say that it must be inclusive and reflect the diversity of

opinions we spoke to mark littlewood director general of the institute of economic affairs which was behind one of the reports on the b.b.c.'s coverage. but it's true that we are no longer in a referendum period and it is true as the b.b.c. said in a statement by a phone is she with that it's no longer a binary choice but the problem is this although there are a wide range of choices do we leave without a day old do we stay in with a transitional period do we stay in the single market do we stay in the customs union and if so for how long or there are now a wide range of options really those range of options are subsets of the remaining camp and the leaf cap i think is pretty poor that a public broadcaster is skewed that guess sometimes less so dramatically in this direction on the top political issue of the top teams. in general in britain the stagnation figures famous figures and influential people have tended to be in favor of

a you membership it's more the ordinary man or woman who rebelled against the political status and intense believe side it seems to me that balancing all people's views on breakfast and making sure you had a fair share of voice from both ends of the fall and that the argument should be a very very high priority indeed. i think the politicians on the leave side of the argument those who are in favor of projects that are beginning to lose their patience with the b.b.c. the baby so you would argue that the boys take flak for a precise paper on the center right compline center left people in the center left implying that the center right and if you are taking sort of equal amounts of flak your criticism from all sides of the fight for perhaps that's a sign that you have got balance but i would say that the baby say now should be concerned but there are politicians who are seriously raising in the british parliament in the house of lords genuine concern about whether the baby so you really can be considered

a neutral broadcaster one that doesn't just show i tell you versatile your views but a proper balance and if the b.b.c. starts to lose the faith of politicians in the public. in that key question of neutrality then i think over the longer term i have a great deal of problem justifying their present funding and possibly even the present basis of their existence. lartigue contacted various unions and organizations that represent journalists for their reaction and now we've had just the response from the o.s.c. and they refused to comment. the white house says it plans to release a controversial classified memo allegedly detailing abuse of surveillance powers by the f.b.i. in outspent comes after donald trump was caught on a hot mike saying the same when he was leaving the chamber following his state of the union address of. one of.

its claim that the document reveals the f.b.i.'s abuse of the foreign intelligence surveillance act particularly with regard to the claims found in the infamous trump dossier if confirmed it could damage the agency's reputation and the ongoing investigation into terms alleged links to russia the memo was drafted by the chairman of the u.s. house intelligence committee the senate is voting on monday to make it public and some of the committee members who've read it of called it absolutely shocking and worse than watergate president trump has till friday to decide whether or not to release it. well it's been a huge call to make the documents public with the hash tag release the memo trending both on twitter and in facebook but top democrats believe that this call is yet another kremlin plot they've demanded social media giants reveal that it was rush limbaugh's prompting the hash tag and or vote both twitter and facebook said that they've found no trace of a russian plot batons or hasn't satisfied the democrats who are now pressuring the

social media giants to find evidence of the kremlin turned. your replies have raised more questions than there vance it we cannot wait another year to learn how kremlin link trolls and bots are currently exploiting your platforms to influence debates going on in congress today. let's bring in brian crabtree he's the publisher of talk forty dot com and a political talk show host brian first of why why are we seeing this why are democrats pressuring social media giants to find evidence of a russian plot. well our economy is on fire things are happening in america for the first time in a decade or decades in the democrats want to bet on the failure of america because that's where they gain power again if trump succeeds then what do they have to offer so they'll blame it on russia that seems to be the argument they fall back on it's all russia's fault from social media to the bots i can assure you there's lots of social media antics there's lots of bots and they're probably russian and

american and check los of aki and every other nationality you can imagine and democrats would be well served to fight the bot armies on twitter and facebook is stead of crying about them i spoke to kellyanne conway today about this senior advisor to the president that's why i'm here in washington and she said the president is looking over this is a memo very carefully he's concerned about the classified data in it and i didn't leave that conversation in that interview thinking that this would would absolutely be released but i think this president has got to take the risk of releasing this because otherwise the democrats win this narrative by making up more and more stories about how there's this russian connection where there is no evidence will the hushed release the memo it was used by millions of people online i know that the democrats are claiming that these were millions of russian but so very busy russian boats but isn't it true that actually this was triggered by the house

republicans and they got millions of followers is not a moral you know obvious simpler explanation. oh yes and by the mere nature of the fact that a couple of times i've used that hash tag on twitter and i'm sitting in russian television media offices right now i'm colluding with the russians the problem is there's no such thing as illegal colluding with the russians and the whole idea of this facebook twitter russian involvement it's not even illegal if russia's doing it so if we don't like it if democrats don't like the russian interference on so called our social media they may be out to pass some laws because right now there is no legal teeth in any of these arguments it's like we're making this up to make it look like that even if russia or any country is involved in this that they're doing something that's that that breaks our laws we might want to start there we have no laws against what they.
