i don't know if you've seen them but it's incredibly sheriff's dry had like soldiers you know if we have to turn our streets into a d.m.z. just to play a football game something's going wrong here we have to you know that's not just security it seems. yes you want to want to be safe but you know if we're worried that something bad is going to happen then not a mover like you know we need to step back and rethink this. i think it's a sign that we need to step back and rethink immigration like chain migration and other issues that donald trump is wanting to fix and of course we don't like to see those images in the united states we're not a third world country we're not an issue a country that has to deal with an extremely high crime rates like others do but it is a concern and i mean terrorism is a big concern for many people in this country and you know we've had a lot of recent attacks foiled that could have been west and they and they where you've seen you know concerts being attacked like erring on the ground but there's a certain point those where when you look at like policies overseas if we're drone

bombing you know weddings and you know obama did that trumps continue to ask later the drone warfare that's what creates more terror you know we can all agree on that so you know at the end of the day shouldn't we be rethinking that foreign policy i mean from did run on kind of hey we need to pull back and do this less and you know in order to stop creating this kind of animosity we're going to come home and do it to us. could there be more analyzing of that and a half step back i would agree with you on that but donald trump also run on letting the military deal with the military knows how to and that's take out enemies and right now those are terrorists and so i think donald trump might be getting too much freedom and trust in those commanders and what they want to do because after all i mean that's what they do they go to war and they take out the enemy and still maybe pulling those reins back a little bit might be a good idea to reassess that but you know that's something we'll have to look at in the future and hopefully there can be bipartisan support for that look at us both

agreeing on that topic i like that ok i like seeing that when that happens you know it's interesting because because that's what dialogue is key over just yelling and debate all the crime that you see on the other channel that is key which is the view quickly but very quickly but has the republican party drifted over to know you've been trying to change you've been trying to get them to change have you seen any of that change in what you're trying to do over there change from what just just a little bit of time to just making it a little bit less of the kind of corporate type of mass that the republican party was before donald room. yep and i mean did you see the stating in all those you know chants usa and clapping for donald trump i mean what was it like the most i'm standing ovations in the state of the union or close to it so i think he is one of them over he's showing them that conservatives kill when conservative principles can win as long as there are good i don't know how to talk to the people i don't get out he does the c.e.o. he does with these policies are as i was when mccain over about he's one of the

salad thank you so much for coming out and talking with us thank you. as we go to break court watchers don't forget to let us know what you think of the topics we've covered on facebook and twitter see our poll shows that r t v dot com coming up the controversial topics keep on brewing as our own sean stone talks the olympic doping scandal with david wallechinsky president of the international society of the olympic historian stay tuned to the hawks. across europe municipalities are taking their water supply back from private companies to meet the simple song alone even some company elsewhere they invite private companies to take over their utilities anybody tell us they're all posts. i miss you guys you got. to go. this is. just because. i don't want you member of the left over

a lot of locals are ready to stand up for the basic human right the access to water it's about water but it's also over much more than water it's about the hurt and the redistribution of our lives to this. day downwards we want our. treating him sports is nothing to laugh at just like everything else in our lives that tends to be put aside to no end to the patriots for example who drew the nation's ire of this past week and thanks in no small part to their history deflating footballs and looking for corners to cut or we could even look inside the

white house where the president's favorite pastime is spilled numerous investigation investigate about lives analyzing his integrity at the game of golf for the biggest that let a cheating story turn political drama look no further than this year's winter olympics in south korea where the athletes from russia will not be allowed to compete this week under their nation's flag a decision officially made to punish the country for what the i.o.c. alleges a government sponsored doping program but that many critics see as a political attack in tune with the new cold war policies emanating from washington d.c. sean stone recently sat down with david wallechinsky president of the international society of olympic historians to hear his take on the scandal. david can you please update us on what is the recent decision been they've got in russia's participation in this year's winter olympics the international olympic committee following several reports in the clarion report. the oswald report the schmidt report.

and russia russian athletes from competing at this year's winter olympics. but only banned certain athletes and they banned the flag the russian flag and the russian national anthem but they're allowing you know more than one hundred fifty russian athletes to compete as a limp dick athletes of russia oh they are fourteen they call them the now and then we just had this decision there were forty three. the athletes who had been totally banned by the international olympic committee. they appealed them to what's called the court of arbitration for sport c.a.'s they are the ultimate decision making body in the world of sport not just the olympics and c.a.'s distance declared that eleven of those athletes they upheld the ban but the other twenty

eight they said there was insufficient evidence they said this is not to say that these twenty eight athletes are innocent. but that we could not come up with the actual evidence linking them with the state sponsored doping scheme that took place in russia and what does that mean exactly that russian athletes participate from russia but they don't represent russia how does that work good question i mean they you know since they can have the word russia on their their outfits but they can't be the official russian colors at these different colors. it's kind of. a lot of people look at the international community as being wishy washy for trying to come up with a compromise to not punish clean russian athletes. and then they did punish a couple of the officials hard core so it's it'll be weird if it's an odd compromise. as a story and do you think that russia actually should be banned as

a whole for this year's olympics even the athletes who weren't caught doping i thought that the international and the committee should have banned all russian athletes from the pinch on winter olympics even the clean ones because even though it's not their fault. the message you're sending is you can cheat and get away with it. and unfortunately that appears to be even more the case with the court of arbitration for sport. decision so you know sometimes people different people learn different lessons in the united states so when we have the watergate i mean you know hearings. some of us learned while united states is a good justices cision system but other people learned oh we can cheat better and so i'm afraid that that's what happened with this this russian doping situation they were guilty in the orders and the system was created from the top down and

except for not being able to use their flag in their. slant them. pretty much got away with it but it's an interesting conundrum and we've seen so many olympic athletes who've been caught after the fact of the gold medalists like marion jones and carl lewis marion jones is a very interesting case because she never failed to dock with tests ever and yet she was guilty and the only reason the came out was that there was a criminal case in the united states against the skull of the bulk of case in which she was proven to have perjured herself and in the course of that investigation she admitted that she had taken steroids and her medals were taken away from her but she had passed every doping test you ever taken which is the frustrating thing with the doping system right now what's interesting to me is that more americans have actually been caught doping at the olympics than russians that say that more

americans are actually doping the russians but as some doctors would put it everyone is doping. so doesn't that just prove that inforce mit doesn't work. what's interesting about the enforcement is that there is a good step was taken which is that the international committee now keeps the doping samples for ten years so that as as testing equipment improves you could have retroactive. disqualifications which is what you had now with the beijing olympics and the london olympics they they passed the test at the time from many different countries and then the retested ten years later or nine years later and they fail and so this is like a warning to athletes and their trainers who want to dope you can get away with it the day of the olympics but down the line you may lose it so i think that was that appeared to be a good sign. but again when you have a very complicated cheating system such as the russian government used replacing pl

you know going to because what the russian russian system did they picked out like three dozen athletes and said you're probably going to do well in sochi give us a clean sample now they give the clean samples they hide them away freezer then they started giving them a cocktail they call that the duchess cocktail and i which combined. steroids with alcohol i actually found the most amusing detail was that this duchess cocktail for the men. the steroids were mixed with vodka for the women they were mixed with their move so the athletes actually didn't have much choice and if you read carefully the mclaren report they make it clear we're not blaming any of the laboratory workers because it was clear that if they didn't cooperate they'd lose

their job and so the mclaren record in the international and committee said that we want to punish the people on top not the people on the bottom but the athletes took these drugs and it's technically a complicated case and what's interesting about the decision the just happen is that. eleven athletes were disqualified because we don't know because they haven't released the actual details of why why some were disqualified why some weren't that'll come in coming days presumably but apparently there was excess salt in the tested. samples in which you die if you had that much salt so in eleven of them they passed the other twenty eight they could not find excess samples and the russian

laboratories would not allow access. to their samples inside the laboratory so the world anti-doping agency was not able to follow through on that and that's why these twenty eight got away with it was interesting to me as in this new documentary by brian fogle ikarus he documents of experiences with doping under russia's chief scientist gregory sank off and what's ironic is that brian doesn't get better as a cyclist as a result of using these p.e.d.'s his performance actually drops off in the previous year so isn't there maybe a wrong assumption that p.d.'s are always in to give you an advantage absolutely i mean you still just because you're taking steroids doesn't mean you're going to be better used to have to train you still have to be better than everybody else it's not like you're just automatically going to get it. and you have to be good on the day of the event. and you know the way that in the filmmaker rison and

others used you stop taking the drugs at a certain point. and what they tried to do with the sochi olympics was to by replacing the. dirty samples with clean ones it allowed them to keep taking the steroids later including sure in the olympics. but yeah he you know you can't just take steroids and sit back in your chair and are going to be a great athlete than work that way and you know the argument that is often used in track and field weightlifting is the trainer the doctor will say to the athlete if you don't take steroids you'll be the only one in the final who isn't you're going to lose and this is an old argument that goes back way way way way back in the history the links before the were steroids you know we're going to give you a raw egg and sherry and you're going to be better than everybody else. but they go

ok coach as i do it you know what's your little history of the substance abuse issue with the olympics another one thousand nine hundred where bonanza nine hundred eighty was considered the chemical lympics but i think sixty eight was the first year that they really started tracking substance abuse and b.d.'s well over one hundred sixty eight was when they first started testing in the olympics for drugs i mean if you can go back to one thousand and four you know thomas hicks who won the gold medal in the marathon you see photograph of him after things like this well they've been giving him strychnine in brandy throughout the race and at that time that was legal but you know you don't want to take a lot of strychnine and brandy ever much less when you're running you know twenty six miles but so this idea of enhancement is gone on forever whenever and make you a better athlete and it wasn't until the sixty's that they went wait a minute we we need to start testing. the problem was that. you know it

was easy to infiltrate particularly by the east germans infiltrated the system they were part of the day. commission they saw the way the tests work they brought all the information back and they devised ways to get around it. this weekend hours before the big game hundreds of protesters took to the streets of minneapolis minnesota the take a knee and solidarity with n.f.l. player collin capper nick and to speak out against police brutality and in the shadow of football's biggest day and while many taken the artist bob young williams aka the occasional superstar puts paint to stone cement and brick to address the tension and perceptions surrounding civil rights and race in the united states today williams uses his artistry to create stunning new rules of contemporary and historic civil rights icons throughout the streets of atlanta georgia and i hope to immortalize the past and inspire the next generation who will continue the fight

for civil rights and equality long after we are all old and great keep the fires of change burning my friends because that is what will keep him that is what will truly bring change to this world remember change is a generational thing that's what we always have to remember when we when we protest whatever it may be. remember everyone in this world we are not told we are so i tell you all i love you that is our show the tyrol to keep watching those hawks have a great big night at the. front

of the lukaku globe the best out of the children of. the concerts i was preparing to perform i had actually prepared myself to die i. don't know said he'd want to know sorry trust me. as most of. you. in home will stop her. this country was. really good civilization. so we'll see if you think. what. was it he could with. yes get more here guy did me she. took me. a couple so kind of oily b.s. good i mean very good job.

the us is losing in two ways number one the climate denying is 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. that . it was yesterday. night. i. i. i.

do the song she will remain holed up in the ecuadorian embassy in london for the time being after hearing on whether to drop his arrest warrant. for another week. also this hour u.s. republicans allege the infamous behind many of the trump russia collusion claims may have been based on info provided by the clinton campaign as well as part funded by the clinton foundation. human rights watch reveals how strong drugs are being misused by united states nursing homes. when you see who he was totally dry and you can even talk to.

thanks for joining us live on our team for national with me. tonight welcome to the program. well he may have spent more than five years holed up inside the ecuadorian embassy in london during a song that will need to wait another week to find out whether a warrant for his arrest has been dropped but after hearing in the u.k. it was postponed until february thirteenth and it's essential to get a who's but at the court. it was expected today that a judge would move here outside the court behind me to potentially lift the arrest warrant put in place by british officials in connection to the initial allegations made against julian a songe by swedish officials his legal team have been saying since since those were dropped it's time to drop the arrest warrant however the judge here has decided that at this stage this would not happen quite yet so this was technically the last

legal hurdle for julian assange to be able to walk outside the court or an embassy and not be arrested now there was certainly some confusion earlier on in the courtroom where the judge said that at this point she's not persuaded that the arrest warrant should be lifted and lots of journalists started to publishing headlines that the court had ruled against him and julian assange who went to twitter as he often does to say that this was big news and the hearing was actually continuing his legal team and julian assange himself have said time and time again that what's key and what he fears most is possible extradition to the u.s. let's take a listen mr sound remains willing to answer to british justice in relation to any argument about breach of bail but not a better place in justice in america. this place appears and has always been about the risk of extradition to the united states and that risk remains real while it's also been made clear that even if at some point

a court here in london does decide that julian assad could potentially walk a free man his concern is some kind of guarantee of free passage again to would this potential extradition to the u.s. given that american authorities. to see the we start point i'm happy with the work we have been doing and have said time and time again that they want to see him on u.s. soil the united states do something to stop mr sausage. that right now this guy is a traitor a treasonous and he has broken every law the united states the guy ought to be and i'm not for the death penalty so if i'm not for the death i don't want to do it illegally shoot the son of a wiki leaks walks like a hostile intelligence service and talks like a hostile intelligence service ignorance or misplaced idealism is no longer an acceptable excuse for lionizing these demons his legal team will continue to battle it out here at the courtroom in london it's clear that what's key in terms of what happens to julian assange largely depends on any guarantees including from the u.

was that he would not be taken there and this is continuing to be a major hurdle despite what happens here in london depending on the decisions that will come possibly as early as next week on february thirteenth now given the scale of the revelations of wiki leaks has published against the united states so little wonder many believe washington is keen to get its hands on him for instance wiki leaks expose the truth about torture. detention camp as well as damning u.s. military logs on the war in afghanistan the company also leaked the cia's spying tools as well as this material. let me know when you get. to see. three two three three. when this video which wiki leaks called collateral murder shows how american helicopters gunned down more than

a dozen the rockies and more recently was obviously the story with the d.n.c. e-mails which has been suggested helped trump the u.s. presidential race human rights campaigner peter tatchell believes these revelations could easily see a songe extradited selection there's no doubt that the bottom line in the astounds case is the very serious and likely risk that he would be extradited to the united states to face a whole raft of very serious charges including espionage which theory carry the death penalty at the very least he can expect forty years in prison and possibly life imprisonment so it is totally understandable that there's a rational human being during your sons' would not wish to step outside the ecuadorian embassy when the risk of arrest and extradition to the u.s. hangs over his head. british acca larry love who on monday won his fight against

extradition to the u.s. visited a sergeant the embassy the man's accused of carrying out cyber attacks on the f.b.i. and nasa among other organizations while wiki leaks is also known for publishing classified information about american politics and the work of its security services clearly the two men have a lot in common and had plenty to discuss speaking to journalists love said he wished the luck in his case. five years holed up inside a small embassy left plenty of time on asar just hands good thing he's had plenty of friends to visit.

thanks. thanks. to our. thanks. to our. u.s. republicans have released a document alleging the man behind the trouble russia dossier was not only funded by the clinton campaign but i also have been fed information by mr steele's memorandum states that the report was information that came from a foreign sub source who is in touch with a friend of the clintons it is troubling enough that the clinton campaign funded mr steele's work but that these clinton associates were contemporaneously feeding mr steele allegations raises additional concerns about his credibility. the so-called

trump dossier was compiled by former british intelligence officer chris thiel and claims to establish strong links between russia and donald trump during the twenty sixth election now the steel dossier was criticised for containing flaws and being unverified but it was still reportedly used as the basis to secure surveillance on team trump it became an important part of the investigation however it was revealed the documents could have been funded by the campaign of his rival hillary clinton if the latest claims that clinton affiliates also fed information to its or thirteen out to be true that could potentially undermine the entire collusion probe oh but did we catch them in the act or what you know and i'm just did we catch them in the act they are very embarrassed they never thought they really get caught we caught them basically you have a opposition research which proves to be propaganda not even factual information that led to the appointment of bob mahler to investigate trump for russian

collusion that appears not only not to have happened but to have been invented by the democrats paid for by the democrat national committee and the clinton campaign and now they're investigating trump i still think the funniest part about this is they want to say trump well we couldn't find any collusion so it must be obstruction of justice that he fired the former f.b.i. director what was he obstructing if there was no justice to be served because what they were investigating wasn't even true i think that's laughable now the republican party earlier released a memo outlining a potential bias on the part of the f.b.i. and the department of justice in its rush of probe the document faced criticism from the democrats but republicans now say that investigation will proceed to a compass even more branches of the government. yes so let me get to that so phase one of our investigation was just getting to getting at the. what we're looking at

now is the state department and some of the irregularities there well some of the most vocal critics of the might have been the washington post and the new york times the journalism is the subject of a new film because it explains the journalistic values and change over time the washington post and the new york times once established themselves as shining beacons of true journalism a brave group of reporters who would stop at nothing to find out as much as they can in their quest for truth but i'm actually talking about the seventy's back then new york times and poster analysts risk jail time by publishing classified documents on the war the new york times begins its explosive series based on the pentagon papers publication of a covert version of the war with recount due to much of the optimistic talk that permeated officials to. now daniel ellsberg leaks the documents to the washington post you want to learn more go to the movies and check out the oscar nominated film the post seems like the pervert.
