it confirmed it could damage confidence not only in the bureau but also in the ongoing probe into trans alleged russian links the memo was drafted by the chairman of the u.s. house intelligence committee some house members who say they've read the memo have called it shocking and worse than the watergate scandal present trump has till friday to decide whether to release it. however some democrats in congress say the document could be plotted engineered by the kremlin after the hash tag released the memo spread on social media us politicians put pressure on the platforms to find evidence of russian thoughts but facebook and twitter have tonight the hash tag popularity was pushed artificially and mainstream media went even further suggesting the chairman who drafted the memo could be a russian agent himself. and it. isn't possible that the republican share of the house intel committee has been

compromised by the russians as a possible of the actual russian agents running the house intel committee on the republican side i hope that's not the case i mean this is behavior speak about the me i'm not the first person who's raised as he's behaving like someone who's been compromised by. investigators reportedly are interested in stein's advocacy for better relations with russia any vote for stein is a vote that otherwise would have gone to hillary. donna brazil would seemingly buy into false russian fuel propaganda spread by both the brushes and her opponent about her candidates. if those objections the senator from kentucky on the floor before i read this if

there's objection you are achieving the objectives should lie to me. what the democrats want to answer that question is dead the nunez a russian agent yes but they know that they'll be sort of laughed off the stage for getting into conspiracy theories i've never thought this is about right. russia collusion which isn't even illegal if it was i simply think this is about finding a way to stop a powerful force that they can't figure out how to stop democrats in our country this was invented by them it was politically weaponized through the f.b.i. and other levels of our federal government and it's the only way they figured out how to stop or break the tie the american people have to this president. reportedly didn't want to release the damning f.b.i. memo before his state of the union address in order not to harm the unifying message he was aiming for domestically however caleb maupin looks at some of the policies be being used to trump initially trying to distance himself from. trouble

is working very hard to convince us that he's not a bush era neo con war hawk republican obviously the war in iraq was a big fat mistake they lied ok he said there were weapons of mass destruction there was none and they knew there were none there were no weapons of mass ok all right. when it comes to north korea his state of the union speech sounded an awful lot like the leader he had previously denounced the regime has oppressed its own citizens for totally then the cruel dictatorship in north korea this is a regime that has already used poison gas to murder thousands of its own citizens north korea's reckless pursuit of nuclear missiles seeking weapons of mass destruction. these regimes pose a grave and growing danger i will not repeat the mistakes of past administration

will not stand by as peril draws closer and closer we're going to read some key phrases to new yorkers and ask them was it bush or was it trump we need to look at the deprived character of the regime to understand the nature of the nuclear threat it could pose to america and our allies will actually trump talking about north korea. right i'll go bush. trump right that's trump trusting in the sanity and restraint of this world leader is not a strategy and it is not an option. it's actually bush somebody talking about. that's bush also yeah. bush actually trump said that he wanted to stop toppling regimes and start putting america first but with words like these a lot of americans have to be asking themselves are we headed for yet another big fat mistake this time with nukes involved. artsy new york.

the civil war in yemen has taken a new twist as the various countries that make up the side of the led coalition and are fighting against each other the group was initially made up of nine african and middle eastern countries backing the internationally recognized government of president hadi however violent clashes have broken out in the southern port city of aden where so-called southern separatists are now battling against the government. thanks was. thanks. thanks. to the rebels in the country launched a military campaign in twenty fifteen backing yemen's former president despite

being one of the coalition partners the united arab emirates is now supporting the southern separatists fighting in aden who are demanding that the country return to being south yemen which existed before nine hundred ninety riyadh has called on yemen to listen to the separatists demands and bring an end to the clashes however a middle east analyst thinks this undermines the coalition's legitimacy in yemen. it's all about influence and power. and they have been engaged in a bit tense fierce competition they're both trying for influence in the region they are both essential and central partners in the so-called arab coalition to actually restore legitimacy that is their legitimate government but this incident will be a major blow it will be a severe blow to the legitimacy of the coalition the arab coalition and

their fight against the who thing is because now we can see the allies of the u.a.e. turning about their supposedly digit image government which is both and backed up by this odious and the u.s. . now facebook has announced it will block all advertising promoting it calling or other cryptocurrency products and services it says the move is part of a policy against what it calls deceptive marketers make out francis sontag looks into the band. big news in the world of crypto facebook is banning all cryptocurrency ads explanation of the social networks not sure all of the companies behind them are operating in quote good faith so it's stepping in to save the day we want people to continue to discover and learn about new products and services through facebook ads without fear of scams of deception there you go

with the crypto boom comes the crypto rag down we've really seen some governments across the world seeking to rhein in the uncharted waters of the crypto market too from china to the u.k. pseudo financial innovations that have no relationship with the real economy should not be supported i would caution people to look at all of the sun's forms the price . it's not committed to its will because the eventual supply is fixed if you want to invest but be prepared to lose all your money sure there are traps in the group the world take this nicely wrap website of the lithuanian based startup the company wanted to track around six point five million worth of the theory in crypto currency to revolutionize agriculture sounds promising. sure enough the company disappeared without a trace soon after finishing its hard cap wiping its website clean and luckily for

the token holders the scammers just got eleven dollars but it could have been much more like a whole crypto bank for example the first ever by the way the arise bank which had its assets frozen by the u.s. securities and exchange commission with more than six hundred million dollars in several crypto currencies including bitcoin unlike coin all because its owner had previously been associated with crypto fraud and its new bank fabricated agreements with banks that did not exist. but then really how many i theo's out there are scams and the facebook really need to go that far to limit all crypto a whole crypto currency movement is a big thing and it's kind of like a gold rush so there are going to be some scam artists who get in on the action in

unfortunately there are a few but facebook is a billion dollar a month company they can put one person on this to sort them out it's not that hard there's not that many of them it should not be there their job to police such things in my opinion they have to deal with us in world politics and there may be pressures on them to do these things than you can watch the full digest on our you tube this is. i mean your parents and giago. the beginning of the city mayor lection campaign in japan's naga has again highlighted the issue of american military presence in the country japan's central government and authorities in a canal where u.s. troops are currently stationed have been in battle over the possible relocation of the base to the northern city of naga a recent poll shows sixty three percent of voters oppose the relocation while only

twenty percent support the move the incumbent mayor of naga says a vote for him would be a vote for defending japan's autonomy sure lections are extremely important as they will have a great impact on the future of now go an organ our country's current administration is attacking us with attempts to sway the power of these elections are meant to defend japanese democracy and our ptolemy we're asking people from all over the country for their understanding or could our work is in a difficult situation right now but if many people support us we will continue what we do in one thousand nine hundred six a review by japan in the us decided the american base should be relocated to the remote area of hemlock oh the decision was made in order to reduce the military impact on the populated communities of southern arc an hour since ninety ninety five there have been numerous crimes committed on incidents concerning the us military presence that.

activists in uk and i believe the japanese government has been turning a blind eye to the tense situation playing out in the region now i don't think they are mistaken i mean it is a really strong body resurfacing that the could have nation of the day but another candidate is a bucked up book by japanese central government so he agrees. of then the new military faces in his most people are against

the new media the best course of action is government job was government hungry ignoring our voice against democracy and against the decision if the. accept community based they can get the money we need the citizens who know the troops the facts are really. worried japan's government sent the who sent. ministers money and demagogue dimmock all. the fake news of but we will let loose we will win on far and avenues for now i'll be back at the top of the out with more phone to stay with us.

arts. well and well controls are part of the current presidential campaign and russia has

featured there recreate a number of contenders that you stick we have little chance of challenging the incumbent and that's not only because of lighter milk which is still down variable approval ratings but also because after eighteen years of his leadership the prospect of power transition in russia looks increasingly precarious if not put them home and watch to discuss that i'm now joined by senior subchapter candidate in the two thousand and ten russian presidential election sr it's great to talk to thank you very much for a timing now when you an ounce your candidacy a few months ago you position yourself as a protest candidate you said on a number of occasions that you do not intend or do not plan to win i wonder if your strategy has changed in any way perhaps to include something more than just getting the protest mode while first i want i want to comment on what you said about if not then who i think who is what and what yeah i think very important thing that this question by itself is leads. to nowhere

it's not a good question and not right question to ask because it doesn't matter who is not putin i would love anyone to be on his place but the most important thing is them to change every fortnight i strongly disagree. because i think the russian history shows that the power transition is a very very precarious no mystery russian history shows that we don't have experience of democratic rule that's why most important power transition is a change every four years it doesn't matter who they are even if they're not that effective as putin the most important thing is that they should change every four years and they can only be two times for their lifetime so what i fight for is that the whole system now in russia's elections is unfair putin weaves not because he has a big support but because no one else can go on free t.v.

and say what they want to know you how to have these two pritchett and if i may be very your back to the unit to show sorry i can have only for this compay time when i talk about free media i talk about totally the same level of different opinions for years and now we can see eighteen years of only one position on all the federal channels and russia standing in the event just probably i actually agree with you on many of those points i'm not arguing with that but i want to bring it back to my original question and that is whether you at this point of time whether you are aiming for something more than just a protest vote do you want to be that of anyone else as you just pointed out i want to show people russia that there is another point of view this is the goal of my compay i know you can't win on the elections where only putin always wins so there is no sense of talking what would be if i would win i will never win on the

elections laken because ino where all always casino wins my goal is to speak to the russians now on federal channels because it's the only opportunity in morden russia to speak to them during the presidential campaign because off to complain and before campaign they shot those dog. so. to speak and tell them the truth this is a rare opportunity again between to make this opportunity common for them well speaking about the truth because i think many of the issues that you raise i think they're pretty much in line with what the current administration preaches for example putting himself on many occasions that russia needs more competition both political but gives it can only it's no you can say between look truth and lies are spoken by the same words but people always feel one person first truthful through feeling or he is so. when he says i want contour and it's

a lie because if he wants conference why he doesn't let i look see in the intake petition because there is a lawsuit but you created this petition because there is a lawsuit but you created this lawsuit not to get him it is only my point isn't it and it's not only preaching to his administration ministers for example they say russian governance is not very efficient it's too bureaucratized believes there's nothing they just agree with something people ready see the meaning of what i mean or do what makes it different is different because you guys didn't preach this save this is not at all the difference is huge and this difference is what we call real concubines because what i think concrete you mean. by congress i mean competition if putin is really for competition i want him to take part in debates as all the leaders of the world he doesn't debate for eighteen years with any of

his opponents he only speaks with jordan a list and this is the only idea of question and i'll say he gives but i don't like this idea i want to argue with mr putin i want not only to have his answer but i want to ask additional question and additional question to every key is i don't have the support you need to know and no one. as a country and this is not fair but i only see by lack of debates we can say that those the elections are not fair i want to see the same debates i saw trump with hillary clinton but i do think that wrong i don't know why i don't why i did it if he is not afraid because this is a political tradition in our tradition this is a bad tradition if we're talking about democracy and mr putin many times said that russia is a democratic state in all democratic states and i will pull it all it is i'm quite sure in what i am saying there exists a tradition of debates and putin was asked many times to take part in those debates

and he never does so this is not fair if he really wants complete dushan ok well i agree you know all the facts yourselves little eleanor here for eighteen years i'm just a little blonde girl you know coming from. and how to balance with me i'm not you know i don't know someone who is so much less than you that you will hasn't let us forget about yourself because you made your criticism of very clear but let's leave some time but this is my campaign isabeau my complaint is not about me my life how i'm going to give you an easy way out of that because you haven't you are my way is only to show that those people should not be there this is actually what i know hey you know now i mean these are not the boxing assault my campaign is candid it against all and said you know. do you want to ask a few questions about yourself you said for example just the other day. governing

class you view governing class as hard professionals and i agree with you on the read the people hard those professionals to do the job for us and yet you yourself you have no governing this experience from what i know you have no major managerial experience you don't not have the experience of making decisions under stress and under sometimes. so much stress during raids in my life i had so much anyhow not having started again i'm asking a professional experience of making decisions but if you feel you believe in running the country on the professional basis what makes you qualified for the position that you're running delivering that my country should be run by professional managers and by professionals but president is not a person who is doing you know some experts work as well remember he's responsible for making decision that was said that a president should be you know one field expert president is someone who in my

point of view is the government teat of constitution in the russian governing a president has the. edge for the interview because you haven't read my program as you know in my program the first point i make that i am against presidential republic i want to parliamentary republic in russia and in parliamentary republic of the main and all the biggest function of president is a girl and t. of constitution so. of gaza were not professionals but they were one of the best leaders of the world to my point of view because they were brave enough to go out to people and say look i want to unite you all and i think what we're doing is right and what they are doing is wrong so i want to this is an example for me i am a person who wants to go in t.v. that the constitution is written by my father by the way will be really good anted

in this country and i want parliament to decide all the important laws from my concho why what you are saying is that the parliament has to be professional but you have the president the president was an ice age and we don't need presidential republic we don't need one person's rule a president should be at. times and in god will disagree with. so vase of government was not a professional as you know when he became a president he was not a politician he once said i'm not a politician i'm just a person who cares so i'm i'm also a person who cares and in the state where politics was killed all the professionals were suppressed so that they couldn't take part in politics if their position is so in this situation now we just need brave people who are not afraid so now i'm just a brave person who says look i'm not afraid and unfortunately this is already enough now to go and fight for power because all the people really afraid of what's

going on in project there they're suffering with fear that's why those professionals who should rule they're sitting at home their doors locked and they're fraid of the government so they don't go out on the streets they don't vote if they're one of those if you the streets just yesterday but. no this is not true a good look we all live in they do this in your sleep you know line now they are going to go on the streets because she says streets yangon because the government didn't approve this meetings and they said everywhere if you go out we'll put you to police you just use nail flying i said people took to the streets not that the government approved of that. but he was the. kind of regardless of that deep you know you are the one doing regardless of unconstitutional people you can just see is that on sunday you supported your former and this is the only way to really propaganda does i will explain you by singers they say look people didn't go out to

mistreats and when i say try to say that they didn't go out on the streets not because they're not so many people who for the day that he hates dick cheney are saying sort of people went on the streets only two thousand people it's really not in there now defunct of thousands of people in russia would love to go on the streets but they're not allowed because government i think if you. in russia if you go over years if you give them credit for in jail this is what government always says they don't give sanction to those meetings they say no this is not confirmed as a meeting so they do everything to make people frightened all of them what do you hold on to and let me ask you all of it for our country and for the king of all of the politics of our country one of your very consistent criticisms of the current current government is that it hasn't done something for example it hasn't rained in corruption there it hasn't invested in the one hard hydrocarbon industry hasn't

done much of that but this is the same argument. decision due argument could be equally apply to you then and not apply here and i know you haven't run and your fight is a signal is not your haven't started an innovative disney you haven't done much in the way of public service i have started fortunately don't know much about me because i had started an innovative business i am doing i have a big agency who works in the internet selling advertisement selling. just. why i should do something for public service if i only begin my political that is my question of why would you if you take your way this seriously i don't treat successful businessmen in my past i had my restaurants which i ruled for many years and got a good revenues for that i made to be a socialist on an advertisement i sold it because i went to my political career so my political career is only starting and i hope on this way to make

a lot of things and i don't think it's quite correct tosk the same things of a businessman. who was doing business and successful business for many years and from presidents who should be doing i'm not comparing you but your way are you saying these things could be applied to me was the same you did a doing or didn't do can you do it for ten years economy of the country but i was not to attend if you have been running downhill for example you mean i was doing my own business and if you didn't hear run for the position of the president i would assume maybe i'm wrong that it requires a certain degree of public involvement of the dalek service i'm sorry in the country which is autocratic like russia that only one quality you need to run for president is one quality that i would say no volley and i share the braveness because people who go against putin the end their life in prison and you

know this for sure so. oh to be a highly developed you know. manager this is unfortunately not enough now you have to be brave and ask to those people like me will great this wall of autocracy that those managers can come out and rule and this is my goal i don't want to say it was i want to break this wall over to create a crew seem ok except for the time being we have to take a very very short break but to be able to back in just a few moments. here's will people been saying about rejected and that it was good enough to pull on awesome the only show i go out of my way to launch you know what it is that really packs a punch just leave it yeah it is the john oliver of our tree of merit is good to

see and we are apparently better than blue nothings better to see people you've never heard of love or die for the next president of the world bank very soon because we're going to seriously send us an e-mail. welcome back to all the part that you're seeing is a check a candidate in the two thousand and eighteen russian presidential election and saying just before the break you mentioned the name of alexina. i assume a former friend of yours was precluded from running in this elections and his supporters. took to the streets in this series of a.
