it was sending that up to the court it was to prevent the abuses that the american intelligence community. did in the seventy's in the sixty's in the fifty's so post post with our great america decided to create this act and what do we see now we see that first it will let's go back to how this court functions if we look at the record of this court last legislative almost every single last ninety nine point three percent seventy nine point eight percent ok this is a secret court that hears secret arguments about how our intelligence community wants to spy on american citizens they approve ninety nine point eight percent of cases brought against it no no negative no credible oversight or it's a rather special an authority it's a rubber stamp secret court and they're spying on american citizens and this is they they bring obviously fraudulent evidence in front of it they this is the

important game and we think we know them but you're right but i mean let's let's let's let's finish in the thread here they're spying on american citizens a citizen who is working for a political campaign for a presidential candidate i mean this is the this was the whole reason the fires of course were put up to make sure something like this would happen and actually because of the way it was set up we have and we have the rest of them they know how to go around let's be perfectly clear about this they know one of these people seriously believe that carter page or george papadopoulos these bumbling inturn idiots were russian agents this was an attempt to use their bumbling to get intelligence wiretaps inside the trump campaign it's true well what i find especially astonishing about this whole story is that feisal warrant was based on a story written by michael isikoff. and why don't you. if you get the story from

the facts facts from christopher stevens so the story is that d.n.c. campaign paints pace christopher steele so that he would dig dirt on trump team going to law school hotels and meeting with prostitutes there sleeping on obama's former badly you know in a hotel then michael isikoff takes an interview from this guy and then finally decides oh the whole possible fits together that there is a conspiracy against the night that's all you do also know that the face of court was not made aware of the origins and the author of this dossier ok what is not in there also were not told this article that was in the yahoo newsletter was also my suggestion i think i could correct them very easily you know let the fights record just to read my stories about russia and i think we should because that is the evidence was so should it be that they were in this rubber stamp court one said no had to be light to get the word instead it's that.

we should stress this again this was the evidence put forward to wiretap an american citizen who was working for trump's campaign or had recently stopped working. in the case of of quarter page that when it was renewed that they not only use this dodgy opposition research tabloid scandal news from a foreign spook that the u.s. intelligence community itself says has. minimal. meaning it's it's complete you know horse water. but to back it up they used are ya who knows story that is talking to the same people reference the same document that the biggest shock to most of us might be that yahoo is still out there and they're going to go out and by the way michael isikoff has a book coming on this very subject. now i wonder if he is going to have to do you

would do if somebody were to actually i'm going to do things here if you wrote the number of books on russia in the middle east you know just read his stories on russia and the media is he's an extremely unobjective doing this but i just loved what five states so far so warrant mentioned information on george papadopoulos which one. will stroll down a street in deep meant in the long haul that the mounties profess connected to russia to the union of russia. well even stout and secret police would not accept it you know like you would talk to someone in the london world for a long time quit cold connection to the really bad script elements but if you're generally going to go to a short break and after that short break we'll continue our discussion on the memo seen with r t.

the us is losing into a summer on the climate denying precluding them from the dissipating in this new economy number one and number two the effects of the climate change and why the catastrophes the global you know migrants that are the result of it all this other problems are hurting the u.s. economy on the other side of the trade so you've got a double bind. appetite i mean for conflict is very very low these days public service much more eager to see economic improvement and they are to. actually get into a fight with a neighbor or or with other powers in the world. welcome

back to cross talk where all things considered i'm peter lavelle to remind you we're discussing the memo. for a gentleman to continue with the memo but i want to change. a different path here and watching him b.c. c.n.n. they're absolutely giving complete cover. i saw one segment with a wolf blitzer talking i think it was to. a congressman and he kept talking about his his issue was well why didn't you release it the same time because the democrats are going to have one and finally the congressman was quite polite he said well can we talk about the contents of the memo instead of the timing of a memo we don't know much about because it hasn't been completely written ok this is the tactic again nothing to see move along but they're giving cover to would like i gave the new york times title right here if they don't want to talk about it

a lot of people are talking about it it has amazing implications here the the real potential criminality and there is actual not just misuse of authority here questions but there is potential criminality in if there was false presentation of evidence to the pfizer the secret courts when the f.b.i. investigation was requesting wiretaps on quarter page that's the potential for criminality but it has to be said of course the democrats the neo cons are completely denying they say that things are being taken out of context now they put forward kind of a rebuttal memo headed by adam schiff that's been blocked by the trump ministration that should not be blocked let's let's have all of this out in the open so it isn't just like the g.o.p.'s memo it was scout order and it was checked ok if the democrats haven't done their homework they it should be put. public as i think

should be it all of the underlying evidence which is clearly not any threat to national security as as as indicated in this memo all the underlying evidence should be unclassified and made public and this is where the hypocrisy of the republicans comes in because they just two weeks ago rood no the same flies apart. in a democrat republican right to gether and there was no no discussion there was another should know that they have these powers to trump that the democrats say you know is a tire and to put you know a desk but sort the republicans meanwhile are talking about the deep state of course is also a threat but they don't have a problem renewing the powers either so there's a bit of hypocrisy on both sides here all the evidence needs to be made available to the public you know. what about the mohler investigation i mean if this is ten percent of the underlying in this is according to the g.o.p.

would it be fair. what does the rush investigation have two legs to stand on. and those who put him in that place where he is right now are they upset the elected president of the united states and they're going to try to do their best to go as he was us and to reach their goal despite all the obstacles are only going to be where going to pick up a lot of people and is it from the fourth floor of the f.b.i. i mean there's a lot of people in bahrain that you i mean one of the reason i'm asking this is that given the media cover that the state is being given here i mean this is a growing confrontation we have documentation people under oath in front of congress during interviews have lied ok and it can't stop right there we you know rosenstein is still sitting in his office right now. yes if one

has to wonder what he's doing in the interest of the f.b.i. another single director of that agency now a single director of the cia or the n.s.c. ever went to prison and it's not because they were abused or it's not because they never committed crimes according to the american constitution american criminal code but it's because the power of the exercise in the american society in the american political order is so overwhelming that they're essentially above the law it's been revealed time we've seen behind the curtain you know this is a growing crisis here because you know there's enough evidence here to put a lot of doubt in this in the let's be clear here i don't want to repeat the same mantra that i keep all the good people at the f.b.i. have nothing more to say there because i don't know what that is they're all the studies show that you know there is no the interesting thing here this is really again we started out mark you know at the end of the obama administration changing

all of those regulations about having access to classified information i'm asking and what not i mean this is falling solely on the administration the just left office of the old obama administration to all these people who were talking about his appointees ok this is coming to a head right here what i may do differ i'm with victor here i think this is an opportunity for trump that i necessarily like him very much but this would be an opportunity for him to clean house and he may have justification because. you know i mean look what of course they're terrified of what that washington. writes about it they're not afraid that people were actually under all of their afraid there was none trump may lash out when it mixolydian four or to the justice department and the f.b.i. well actually now and you know you know you make it very clear here you know some something the you know. the media. does is the cost is unbelievable shadow around

the president the united states the president the united states can fire anybody he wants in the executive branch and he doesn't need a reason he can do it you have one of them here and they need to it has been trying to deal with getting my kids at me a station they have been doing it every day every hour and every minute of their coverage and they're going to continue doing it until they believe that the given each their goal but of course even. in the last few days and the myth that there's a constitutional crisis is possible in the near future in the united states because of the situation developing now because it's being as you said correctly it's a train wreck and we need what we have right here you know what's interesting is what we. and what we said who was it who said it was a clapper you know there's six ways to sunday to get you ok i mean these are this those are that's a threat here and so we have and we d.o.j. and the f.b.i. absolutely have resources to defend themselves but you know they're defending

themselves against the constitution this is the crisis that i'm talking well of course they see themselves performing it. i mean that's peter struck all those messages to his girlfriend yes perino ok so the f.b.i. whose officials perjured themselves to the pfizer court in order to. get a warrant approved then are charging. quarter page papadopoulos with lying about things that actually weren't criminal to begin with but i think there's two details in these documents that really struck out at me they're not pivotal towards criminality but they speak to a wider conspiracy one is bruce or as wife he is working in the attorney general. should with she works for fusing g.p.s. and she worked specifically on the line to getting this dodgy dossier this tabloid . sheet presented to the f.b.i.

and she continued contacts even after all of this nonsense was over with similarly andrew mckay whose whose name is signatory on all these fires documents he is a former f.b.i. assistant director who just resigned when all of this came out in the last couple of weeks his wife ran for office region your state senate as a democrat getting seven hundred thousand dollars now lies this is all of course it's ridiculous conflicts of nothing to see that. it does speak to a wider conspiracy. like the comment from the new york times about all of this the republican assertion that investigative smike of a lot about mr steele is potentially problematic this is nothing compared to a constitutional crisis that may be unleashed by the white house if it decides to fire your or s. now it seems unlikely deputy attorney general holder was in secret general so when

speaking to the f.b.i. with a lawyer it was and wasn't recorded it is what the memory of the. interrogators the york times would never call that problematical he was a great day anyway so he would have to be caught a little you want to sit on it as if you were for example accused of grand larceny you were that into an interrogation and then to investigate they would find out the it had nothing to do with that but in the course of your interview you would see the plant see steerage that you went to the supermarket to buy milk in the check from the supermarket and said you bought orange juice so you lied on that also yes in the grand jury oh. well i mean i will show right there against this new news report that they cherry pick facts right the fact that our bar much in late two thousand and sixteen promised to seven leaders that trump will not become the president of the united states. different is the wrong is never mentioned the fact

that ninety five percent of the mainstream media support that hillary clinton is now one of the things that we need to find in the rest of the ninety percent here is the the importance of these fines for warrants are of such a level of importance that one has to assume that the president of the united states was aware during his briefings in the morning i think we're going to find out if he was aware of this here on the on the back end of what you were just saying that. my prize of the week goes to john mccain john mccain it out of the most desperate of all the desperate attempts to try to wash over this to try to discredit the memo he said there's only one person that benefits from this memo and we can say it in unison a lot of their proved to you when you were in the oval carthew prize of the week. those are probably going to be the last words that john mccain goes. away from one

hundred if you can and speaking of the american service if i think some the whole thing up very well this is from the american conservative former us presidential candidate patrick buchanan trump pater's in the press may be terrified that the memo may credibly demonstrate that the poor balls were right that the elite media have been had that they were exploited and used by the deep state that they let their detestation of trump so blind to reality that they've made fools of themselves and they credited with high don't believe the a major conspiracy to overthrow an elected president of the united states and despite all that came on to the last few days that deep state and private miller and others they will not stop they will attempt to go on they will try to go on and accomplish their goal of removing an elected american president it's not going to be pretty it's going to be even if we don't like it this is a dangerous time to be living in i view. situation from

a bird so i. think that deep steve and in general you know this ultra liberal i do or would you which is really the net to states if trump approves of the nuclear if he moves towards a nuclear war if he is getting going to jump in they're going to do it when they're driven out of time i mean he thinks my guess here in moscow and thanks to our viewers for watching us here r.t. this is the end of our broadcast segment stay with us for the extended version on our you tube channel see you next time and remember. across europe municipalities are taking their water supply back from private companies to me to people this is a simple song on events like company elsewhere they invite private companies to take over their utilities anybody tell us the. actual mr guys who got to pick him

up because. this is. just because. of what you man but the left 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. their debt downwards they want to.

mourns the loss of a pilot. died fighting islamist militants in the. video surfaces online appearing to show the russian pilot surrounded by the extremist fighters right before he blew himself. to be couch. we look at the devastation and suffering still blinding the iraqi city of mosul months after it was liberated from islamic state. and i challenge any member of parliament to live in the conditions we're currently living in here they are

even afraid of entering. the u.k.'s high court rules on a british man accused of hacking into f.b.i. and u.s. central bank systems will not be extradited to america and it's a such a move could put his life at risk. just a few moments into a brand new day here in moscow choose the february this sixth i'm you know neal this is our two international russia is mourning the death of a pilot whose plane was shot by islamist militants in the north. of syria today major philip roth refused to surrender to the rebel forces on the ground and died in the fighting that ensued the russian defense ministry has posthumously awarded the deputy squadron commander the country's highest honor retitle hero of the

russian federation in moscow a memorial has been set up outside the defense ministry building people have been leaving flowers and reeds there and in the crimean city of sevastopol mourners laid out candles in the shape of a jets to honor for the puffs bearing many people have been particularly shocked by the footage purportedly showing the incident that syrian opposition activists posted online you may find some of the images destroyed. very fight video that you just saw appeared online shortly after the incident and it shows the last moments of the pilot's life now from what we can hear on the video the pilot had waited for the terrys to get closer to him and only after that he detonated taking his own life and also avoiding capture he even managed to

shout that he was doing this for his own colleagues that were fighting alongside him or his defense ministry has already confirmed all these details the details of the last moments of his life how he was fighting till the very errant. major oman filip of fulton so the very last moment of his life against an overwhelming number of terrorists he was bubbly and surrounded when that there was movement towards him the version of so it's own large with a hand grenade rushes defense ministry has confirmed him as major one month reliever from the ministry said that he was an experienced pilot. and it wasn't his first time serving in syria now before that he was for several years in the region of russia's far east it was also part of a dozen successful military operations now the pilots plane was shot down on

saturday near the province which is located in the north western part of syria which is still controlled by the latest incarnation of the terrorist group and other militants now the pilot was trying to keep the airplane the aircraft in the air as long as he could then he managed to get jacked from the aircraft but then he found himself over a. terrorist he is the weapon was found with an anti magazine and two others banned now shortly after is that an unverified video appeared online showing militants taking. the body and also stomping on the debris of the crashed plane russia has already reacted to this incident carrying out strikes in that particular area and the ministry said that over thirty militants were killed as a result of these strikes the last words of the pilot roughly translated into this

is for the loves being turned into a hushed like they're circulating online and have been printed on the expounding memorial in the center of the russian capital. kilometers of rubble nation a vast desolate city strewn with conflicts all my gentle find bodies that's the states of mosul today. from its liberation or to the video agency ripley has been capturing images of the iraqi cities post this law makes state reality we need to warn you again you may find the following footage highly upsetting. how many bodies have you removed since you started working in this area approximately five hundred ok are there any more but yes i mean how is this and all their odds.

are that i don't i challenge any member of parliament to live in a conditions where you're currently living and that they are even afraid of entering this area they have no idea how horrible the smell is or how critical the medical situation i guess. we haven't received any kind of a sense. on one occasion i didn't receive a small box of. bombs. nothing. what our senior correspondent. witnessed the liberation operation after math he shared his experiences with us in this you were here. seven months since the battle of mosul ended they're still digging up people's bodies and i was there when these bodies had just begun to rot and i don't the gull ever forget it was the smell it

was beyond sickening beyond north you know there were areas entire districts in mosul where you could hardly breathe properly the real heroes are the people doing the digging the people the rescuers that are sifting through all this all this wreckage and pulling out these bodies they're so desensitized you can see they're not even wearing breathing mosques or even even rags but then again they're paid pennies to do this hard work because obviously jobs are scarce in moves so. standing buildings. you just described a traumatic and have rendered experience. and you've outlined lots of difficulties but were there any other problems that were highlighted when you with that well there is still a huge problem and that is unexploded bombs shells mines isis booby trap suicide vest and one of those are still are still all over mosul and when kids are

playing for example on wrecked buildings or when rescuers are digging out a body when homeowners come back to their destroyed houses trying to salvage what they can that's when those bombs go off and rescuers tell us every day they get several more new victims of well the battle of the battle of mosul but we were there from the very beginning from when those u.s. led coalition jets bombed isis in in mosul day and night then when it was safer we got a little closer to see what those explosions really caused the price of the liberation of mosul. oh oh. oh. civilian casualties are

a fact of life in this sort of situation. do you agree that some of the the high level of i think ridiculous standard that we had previously is now created this. behavior by isis that they now realize if they take human shield they're going to avoid being struck and that actually this is adding to the problem congressman i do believe they understand our sensitivity to civilian casualties and they're exploiting that and i do agree that as we move into these urban environments it is him become more and more difficult to apply extraordinarily high standards for the things we're doing although we will try.

laboring street all but destroyed the streets across rubble the street over there it's the same story wherever you look. there are still countless bodies buried under all this rubble and no one knows how long it will take to get. let me show you west mosul now a wasteland the city for intents and purposes has been erased and there is little or nothing left so it's no surprise people don't want to return.
