. the f.b.i. informant or. us politicians on the media get into a muddle over how to describe the role of a cambridge professor who infiltrated donald trump's election campaign. if police political crisis deepens a failed to euro skeptic coalition the e.u. is behind the president's decision to appoint a. friendly interim government. with. his name. because he is not approved by the stock market. european capitals is this a joke. the israeli parliament. that would ban the filming of i.d.f.

soldiers. in the spotlight for using excessive force. tuesday may twenty ninth one in the morning here at moscow welcome to the program this is our. america is split and not just along democratic and republican lines this time it's about one word spygate a term was used by the u.s. president donald trump to refer to the intelligence services planting an alleged mole in his election campaign the department of justice though refers to that person as an informant. explains the semantic model america now finds itself in. there are many out there who would and do call into question donald trump's business process but there's no denying the guy is a branding machine and his labels have a tendency to work like gangbusters mark you know little mark he's
8:22 am
a lion ted and you know that's his name we can have many rocket sick puppy shooting rockets all over the place through kid hillary crazy very he's crazy is a bit but you know he does it when it comes ladies hash tag where the buzz word is spreading like wildfire he came up with this one to remind anyone who follows his twitter which is everyone that the f.b.i. may have spied on his campaign through a confidential informant but that sounds all official and is definitely not scary or catchy q trump we now call it spygate you're calling it spygate adding a gate at the end makes it so much better doesn't it watergate deflate gate russia gate priceless and according to some anonymous sources that spoke with the a.p. terms choice of the word spy was not an accident he allegedly picked the term believing it to be more sinister and likely to be picked up by the media and if that's true boy was he right the revelations of the obama era political targeting
8:23 am
grow more ominous by the day claims the f.b.i. may have been spying on his campaign these kind of upset with me read an article in the new york times seems to feel that there was a mole or a spy in this campaign ok no surprise that fox picked up and ran with trump's phrasing but seriously it's common knowledge that if a toddler is throwing a tantrum you simply don't give them the attention they clearly want the fake scandal that trump scripted for us in the media this week as a name when we're not going to repeat this morning it has tweets to go with it which i am not going to read because reading those tweets is what he wants us to do three even enjoy get m.s.n. b.c. could have been a shining beacon of rationality for the rest of the media to look up to and not give trump exactly what he wanted but no. president trump has seized on this new branding effort to discredit the discredit the russian investigators and i don't really know where kids spygate and it just went on from there after running out of
8:24 am
steam either supporting or contradicting trump claims little hint either way it still works for trump they went on spending air time defecting to semantics at play here we give you the great debate of informant first by what's your reaction first the tweet and second to the distinction between a spy term on the president is using and informants they're one in the same a confidential informant is someone who is informing confidentially in other words spying you may call this person a confidential informant that sounds perfectly fine right but what if it's a spa funnily enough and a breakdown of the coverage of translate this phrase by the washington post we were mentioned as having not picked up on it but you still haven't said what this whole time i haven't read it ok well then spygate spygate spygate and we move on now the individual at the center of the spike in cambridge professor stuff on help was allegedly collecting information on several of trump's a they were suspected of
8:25 am
having links to the russian government something they deny and the information was reportedly used to stir up the trump russia collusion probe and we discussed spygate with legal and media analyst lionel it's amazing how they focus on the word to spy versus informant when in fact the real question is what is the role that this gentleman was involved in what was mr helper. who cares is he a spy what do you mean by that they also go through these great graphics of how many times you used to determine and did he needed in this context the same thing happened when trump used the term wiretap they said there was no wiretapping and they kept the we were correct because they were focusing on the the age old wiretapping of your verses surveillance in the law i mean are they that serious did
8:26 am
they miss the point the point is not whether this gentleman by the way was outed by the media. question is not whether he technically falls under the the definitional rubric of spy versus informant question is what was he doing there in the first place why was mr trump the subject of this type of directed intelligence scrutiny in the first place. it really is said to be led by an interim pro european prime minister that's off the euro skeptic coalitions bit to govern was derailed by the italian president and the head of the league party one of the failed coalitions members things this may have been at brussels bidding is a short recap of the last two days of political drama and italy. approved all the proposals for the ministers by did not prove the name of the
8:27 am
minister of economy. one can say no to a minister with his name goofy pluto donald duck because he is not approved by the stock market financial or some european capitals is this a joke didn't i accepted the mandate. that the many italians hope for this government to get started so this was an ugly serious mason sacked. i want to speak again of my friendship and support for president there's a crucial task ahead. of me to them furious and i'm going to be furious today. in the next day we also have principles inside the euro zone even more but they should tell us every government must have the stamp of approval of burley in paris and brussels to me this is crazy for the euro skeptic coalition failed to form a government after the italian president rejected it and to euro pig for economy minister and surprise surprise the presidents now appointed
8:28 am
a former international monetary fund official that interim prime minister shiloh drew pinsky investigates you can win an election create a coalition put together a plan for reforms and a ruling cabinet but turns out you still don't get to govern well that's if you're in the e.u. and you have a you're a skeptic and gender president i asked for the ministry and authority it's of political figure it was not seen as supporting a line that could provide italy's exit from the euro essentially this means that the majority of voters who between them opted for the five star movement and league two parties with an anti e.u. agenda in march actually don't get to decide the president awaits a red card because he doesn't like one proposed minister and q political crisis possible. snap elections is this really how democracy is supposed to work.
8:29 am
i mean find me in the constitution the government can't change european rules this is a limited sovereignty it's a piece of democracy that goes away brussels hasn't shied away from warning the new italian government against disobeying the e.u. rule book and it looks like it's got its way no matter what the tally in voters want it and when has that happened before oh yes back in two thousand and five a referendum was held on whether or not to adopt a european constitution here in france as well as in the netherlands voters rejected the idea yet despite that clear unease pushed ahead well branding it as the lisbon treaty three years later which contained many of the changes the constitution had attempted to introduce but this time the majority of the public didn't have a say because parliament simply ratified it island the only e.u.
8:30 am
member which stuck with the referendum rejected then there's been treaty but that was old didn't go down well with brussels but i believe we should not rush to conclusions believe the truth is a lie and we should now try to find a solution and despite a clear fifty three percent no vote the irish will back at the polls just sixteen months later for what must have felt like day finally the e.u. got the answer it was looking for oh yes you are supposed to jump for joy what about greece the mediterranean country drowning in a sea of its own it's a vote is decisively rejected the terms of an international bailout in two thousand and fifteen. i would like to say that the greek people made a historic and brave choice responds well to the existing john logan you.
