well we spoke to the founder of communities united against police brutality who believes taser regulation is a big problem in the us the police violated a number of policies first of all they broke into his home without probable cause to do so and secondly they taste him multiple times eighteen times in fact while he was in the bath tub where the person is tape if their skin is wet much more electricity conducts through their body the sad reality is that tasers are fairly very poorly regulated the united states we started out with them having some rules around using tasers now they literally stick a taser on people they don't want their answer to something and it's outrageous because these devices are dangerous in this case and in many other cases they've proven to be deadly more than fifty percent of the people who are killed by police in this country are in the throes of a mental health crisis so we can see there is really
11:01 am
a problem and we really really need to stop using police as the way that we address mental illness in this country. president. set off to french overseas territory as he looks to persuade the people of new caledonia to remain a part of fronts. there's a spot to do my thing but it will be essentially a symbolic a lot of responsibilities already low who managed by the government all the provinces. new caledonia already has other resources like tourism new caledonia is rich thanks to its cultural environments and. if one day there is no one nickel we can still

make it. we already thought of every way to live without it it's mostly sovereignty expensive the army defend security justice cetera so we have asked ourselves this question for a long time in a country of two hundred thousand two hundred fifty thousand inhabitants do we need all these structures the answer is no from. the. same city the know when it will only be for the first referendum and there will be a second referendum and a third one so we have time to convince the people it's in their future interest to form this country he managed to share this i did with them they just need not to refuse it is our goal is to go as far as possible which is for us to close the corner chapters from. our rights more powers for trumped facebook wanting to set you up the boy and boy scouts perhaps being consigned to history
11:03 am
it's a busy watching the hawks just. try
11:04 am
to stop. thanks guys but as a final. customers go by your use of. the now well reduces. that's undercutting that what's good for markets is not good for the global economy . greetings and salutation. despite all evidence to the contrary like the orgasmic joy seen on c.n.n. every few months when the united states drops if you get another group of poor people on the opposite side of the world spite all that the last time the united

states congress actually declared war was all the way back in june one thousand nine hundred forty two against romania of all places as part of world war two this of course leads to one of the great political paradoxes of our time just how does the united states legally justified its constant state of warfare when our pounding paperwork the founding paperwork of a country the united states constitution quite specifically states that only congress has the power to declare war not george herbert walker not bill c. not w.-a not moroccan certainly not the donald. enter the highly controversial and much debated authorization for use of military force or a us that that along with the national defense authorization act has been responsible for all of our collective killing of poor brown folks around the world since nine eleven representative barbara lee out of california was the lone vote
11:06 am
against the a u.s. back in two thousand and one stating it was a blank check to the president to attack anyone involved in the september eleventh events anywhere in any country without regard to our nation's long term foreign policy economic and national security interests and without time limit in granting these overly broad powers of the congress failed its responsibility to understand the dimensions of its director late declaration and sadly that they have as the a you a map has been stretched about as thin as it could ever possibly be imagined in order to justify u.s. military action in syria and other places and now congress has got that authorizing military force feeling again and particularly u.s. senators bob corker and tim kaine you remember tammy ran with hillary rodham years ago. looking to replace the original a.u.m. apps with a new and improved trump proof two thousand and eighteen version of a u.s.
11:07 am
. but i did a but are they are they truly trying to put congress back in control of the us war machine or the really just midterm elections smoke and mirrors with potentially deadly consequences let's find out as we start watching all. of you get the. real thing. at the bottom. of the day like you that i got. this. week so. rather than watching the parks i am tired robot example of the wallace and oh wow are really going to fix that whole. i like guy pervert a call there you have f. the authorization of the military for it's like reading its own phone for is kind
11:08 am
of the sound your soul makes when you look at all the comfortably outer skin is wrought since its inception i know and it's not all that different from the old a you are not that doesn't really take care of the problems that even people you know like barbara were serving and it's not really dealing with that issue so the new way. repeals the two thousand and one and two thousand and two laws but it states in at least two places that it will prove provides a interrupted authority to can continue using the two thousand and one a. so basically we're talking about is that we're great it's kind of like what the new i am. it's like we're breaking up. if you're lonely and in a jam. not really changing a whole lot just kind of we're we're we're no longer in the relationship on facebook it's complicated god. ok gosh you know when your tax will still show and
11:09 am
apparently the relationship never ends between the president. and you have no sense they say that and they it just says that we have to talk about it every year we don't have meetings about it because you know what meetings i'm talking about they don't even do it doesn't think congress doesn't talk about things when they need to before they sign as and then they're only answers will talk about it is like i was like a divorce relationship congress is building like so they're taking all of their personal lives and suddenly like putting that it was that they passed like on only talk to my wife like every four years we're going to hash some things out but i'm not really going to get divorced so we just disagree to talk every four years like to get married i believe here like i'm not twenty. you know what also does what else do you appreciate this a lot of debate has been had over you know kind of stretching the i.o.f. them saying look it was it was designed back in nine eleven and two thousand and two thousand and two thousand and two and now they're using it to like justify fighting isis which wasn't even didn't even exist back in you know two thousand and
11:10 am
one isn't even associate with al qaeda to a completed group the new one kind of like says oh no we're going to fix that problem so corker the corcoran came up adds more groups to the list of whom it's ok pretty united states the bum they are the taliban and al qaeda oldies but goodies and islamic state in iraq and syria and the ever lovely designated associate forces whatever the hell that means well or whoever the hell that means which as of right now includes al qaeda in the arabian peninsula. syria the hakani network and al qaeda in the islamic magreb and mike am i losing my mind but where is the united states not in fact arming al qaeda in syria. or are happy you know you know rebels. a little bit i think you could talk about the colors i would rather colors of as far as i can keep up with what you don't think i'm the other. dynamic thing
11:11 am
this is it also and this is very scary it a lot of debate happened because you know who the president can detain that kind of a perpetual war right so the may. also decides a new route for adding to that list i just mentioned right so the president can add to that list he can say this new group over a year that i don't like they can be on the list he can do that but congress says that he has to write to them first he has forty eight hours to write to them saying i want this new group as part of the you i'm out and then congress can debate it all and they're trying to say this is a check and balance to take away power from the presidency but how many are it let's say that they don't like the group that he that he that he put forth right ok so then they're going to say ok they're going to vote draft a bill saying no you can't put them on the list well then he's going to veto it here she was present going to be to it right and then they're going to two thirds to overturn the veto which is never going to happen you know so it's kind of going to have those rules going to check and balance things out as i say i don't i don't
11:12 am
think resistance means what they think it doesn't really it really does it not when you're just going to handing thing you're changing the wording because it's midterm elections you want to say who stood up to trumpet change there your math people don't really it's the same thing that never ends and you can bomb where we want. the boy scouts of america was founded in one thousand ten and the girl scouts of america nineteen eleven and over the last century much of the core philosophy of the separate but not equal organizations has remained unchanged until now the boy scouts of america announced in early april of this year that they would officially be allowing girls and young women ages eleven to seventeen to join under their new scout me in program and this week they announced that their flagship program for scouts eleven to seventeen was changing its name from boy scouts to scouts b.s.a. not the organization's name to be clear just that one program and some people many people are not happy about it mainly you guessed it the girl scouts of america.
11:13 am
august kathy hope and not hard on the national president the girl scouts of the usa were scathing letter to boy scout president mr randall stephenson stating that she found the idea of the boy scouts letting girls and quote unsettling that b.s.a. would seek to up that a paradigm that has served with bows boys and girls so well through the years and that they should quote not consider expanding to work crew girls the letter went on to attack the boy scouts decision as dangerous and reckless saying the girls need a safe space and that the girl scouts are the only ones equipped to handle the needs of young women the most puzzling of all was an accusation that they were secretly testing the idea to appeal to my little millennial parrots apparently that's a crime the question is why are the girl scouts treating young women and girls as mindless commodities that are only allowed to be used by their own gender in such a public way and what does it say about women in the leader of a major women's organization is using the emasculation of one of the men's
11:14 am
organization in order to keep their membership numbers up and keep those cookie sales rising. the great question i got to say goes this a great question when you were talking about this earlier it struck me too isn't this the good stuff for the boy scouts to do every didn't it just for themselves a few years back and like a barrel of hot water over homosexuality and scully had already lost as there's always been it was as a result of that is ahead right here to me represents a good step hey you know we're not going to be going to not going to an exclusive club anymore women come and join this particular great ok problem solved why is there so much craziness and why of all people the girl scouts they upset about this i don't i don't know i think it's a bad look as a feminist i think it's about black i really don't like this kind of stuff i understand the viewpoint of people and the thing is it's making it seem as if the last wants to be politically correct here and nobody is trying to be politically anything it's literally about family is the boy scout said look the family has wanted to do this they wanted to have something inclusive the girl scouts don't
11:15 am
provide that or you're their daughter doesn't want to participate in those programs now one of the exam i want to sort of rebut to her letter and the view of kind of nasty little thing going on here the idea that same set sex education is better for girls she says that a number of people keep repeating this idea that says research has shown that girls do better research shows that kids do better in same sex an educational environment so boys and girls separately that's not true it's not scientifically proven it has the the data for that is inconclusive at this is the statement saying is really telling the thousands over three or four thousand young girls have signed up for these programs and what they're the thing with the girl scout.
