why i. choose to look for common ground in the. yes. criticism from the political spectrum. with the media. i don't know which side is the bride and which side of that is the groom sort of feels like we're at a wedding you have been watching perhaps one of the most disgraceful performances by an american president today's press conference in helsinki was one of the most disgraceful performances by an american president in memory. facebook admits classifying russians as interested in treason supposedly. it is. really want to get such uses.
5:01 am
for the. full french on the victorious. hero's welcome. just moments off the midday here in moscow thanks for joining us on the program and international with your latest talk. donald trump has completed his european trip which began with a nato summit and ended with that historic meeting with vladimir putin positive steps and real progress those are the words both leaders used to describe the talks
5:02 am
it's something the coast and the media. i don't know which side is the bride and which side of it is the groom anderson but it sort of feels like we're at a wedding you have been watching perhaps one of the most disgraceful performances by an american president why is president trump putting himself in there's a vulnerable high stakes scenario at and letting platen airport. politicians join the media and denouncing the u.s. leader for hooton when the topic of election meddling came up during that press conference president putin did you want president trump to win the election and did you direct any of your officials to help him do that why should americans and why should president trump believe your statement that russia did not intervene in the twenty sixteen election do you hold russia at all accountable for anything in particular president putin denied having anything to do with the election interference or twenty sixteen every u.s. intelligence agency has concluded that russia did who do you believe i have great
5:03 am
confidence in my intelligence people but i will tell you that president putin was extremely strong and powerful in his denial today he offered to have the people working on the case come and work with their investigators with respect to the twelve people i think that's an incredible. i was an intelligence officer myself and i do know how does ca's are compiled and we would conclusions can only be made by not going to tell you the service because you can only be here when that didn't happen q outreach i never thought i would see the day when our american president would stand on the stage with the russian president and please blame on the united states for russian aggression this is shameful john brennan former cia boss and now media darling even went as far as to brand trump's appearance treason donald trump's press conference before minson helsinki rises to exceed the threshold of
5:04 am
high crimes and misdemeanors it was nothing short of treasonous not only would trump's comments in this silly who's who in the pocket of putin republican patriots were you not only does the department of justice fail to provide any conclusive evidence linking the kremlin to the alleged crime it actually admits that the supposed conspiracy did not affect the vote count or the election so a confrontation with putin over meddling was clearly the desired result of following an onslaught of attacks after the media conference decided to defend himself in the usual way of course of twitter he stressed that he has great confidence in u.s. intelligence which has repeatedly stated russia meddled in the u.s. election to trump also said he can focus on the past as the two nuclear powers must get along earlier we spoke to former u.s. congressman ron paul who believes the current drama is based on the old us media habit of making russia out to be the enemy. but you also mentioned so far in this
5:05 am
program about the american media and that is a big problem because for some reason they're almost unanimously endorsing the idea that we have to have an enemy and at this point especially for the last twenty years they've been working very hard to make russia the enemy and i think this is this is wrong and it's not the democrats alone that do this it's the democrats then along with some disgruntled republicans who just they just don't like trump but no i was very pleased with what went on and it's a step in the right direction they i think the biggest thing that if they ever had a serious discussion i guess it would come out on how much we've been involved when we should be involved for instance in ukraine and how that occurred but if they don't have want to concentrate on those problem they want to look forward i think that is great but i would like to i think the next best a systemic ever would be for us to reassess this and say that trump is going in the right direction and talk i'm into getting rid of the sanctions on russia. has been
5:06 am
following the much anticipated hotly debated summit it looks at why it turned into such a drama. so i just made it to the area intended for the media very close to where donald trump me to fly out of our group and i see this so the hosts are setting the rules straight and perhaps that's a. security precaution very soon we'll find out whether the arrows can keep pointing the same direction when the presidents meet so the head to head meeting last two times longer than originally expected and we were only allowed to film the first forty seconds oh the only words that we heard from mr dog she was only dog trump who said that there was a good start to the summit there's something else i pointed out for myself the microphones for both theaters are different for some reason the one for donald
5:07 am
trump looks to be much bigger and a bit more complicated because when president bush the good old. president is just remarks that we hosted the successful football world cup i'm not going to give this to you mr president so the pool is in your court. given the u.s. is due to host the world cup in twenty twenty six. soon it will be two years since donald trump was elected but guess what still worries the. u.s. presidential press poll allegations of meddling and collusion there were sitting right here and almost all the questions from this part of the room were about that and it was rather fascinating to see how the two leaders almost teamed up to dodge these kind of questions however none of this seemed to convince american journalists and while i was looking at them when they were leaving the room they
5:08 am
seemed to be even more for straighted then before the leaders met donald trump and vladimir putin though when they were heading towards the doors i could only see smiles on their faces. meanwhile of that i put into a heated interview with the american channel fox news a new achieve was pressed on key issues relating to russia. firstly russia as a state has never meddled in the internal affairs of the us and in particular has never meddled in its elections that or secondly but wait wait let me answer have some patients to distinguish because being discreet do you really think that it was possible to meddle in the us elections from the territory of russia and to influence the choice of millions of americans people you know well but it's ridiculous. at the prosperous mission but i'm not asking whether they influenced
5:09 am
i'm asking whether they try i will answer what. the hackers about whom everyone was talking about i will turn to it do not worry. emails as they told us and there was information that inside the democratic party there were manipulations in favor of one of the candidates and that is all and that the leadership of the executive body of the party resigned so they'd knitted this fact and that was the most important thing in all of it that the manipulations of the us public opinion must be stopped and they had to apologize to the voters but now mr miller mr president let me answer. your indicate if you don't like miles tell me then and i will stay silent but if you want to americans to hear my opinion and have more patience they are going to be that being mr miller and his colleagues. but why mr miller and his colleagues let me finish speaking of the disrespectful
5:10 am
this time you won't stop me delete don't make the relations between the u.s. and russia the hostages all of your internal political struggles. and i'm stubborn and we want to be given some documents on this issue at least some material but as you see no one is saying anything specific that it's like in the case of the accusations against us over the meddling in the us political process we had not given any documents and now we see that people became the victims of the so-called but i had not even heard the names of these people before you are these people from what did they suffer and why. picked up the bottle that was used to attack scrupled i can't may i ask you one last question sir but let us handle this issue first what bottle who picks it up and from where and what is its chemical formula. you know whether there are different reasons for which these people have suffered and maybe these reasons are inside the u.k.
5:11 am
. but no one wants to investigate this properly just through empty accusations and for what sake why worsen the relations between our countries when russia wants to build them with the u.k. properly so look at it then you can work with us. you'll see this as a turning point then by the by the west in recent years to isolate russia. we see that these efforts do not see any success and they could never have seen it given the size and the value of russia on the scale of global security and in economics and i mean the energy cost part of the world's economics the understanding of what is uniting us and on what we have to work together is leading us to the idea that it is necessary to stop the attempts to fight each other and on the contrary to unite our efforts for overcoming common difficulties and problems i think it is a good start. to start. and just hours after putin finished
5:12 am
their meeting all of us sudden new accusations appeared of russia interfering in american affairs a russian woman charged by the department of justice with conspiracy to act as a russian agent twenty nine year old maria bhutto who recently graduated from american university in the nation's capital was arrested on sunday she's accused of developing relations with those who have influence in american politics to advance russia's interests well her attorney made a statement denying she's an agent he also said the woman offered to be interviewed by the special counsel's office but the special counsel's office showed zero interest in even speaking to her we put up the issue with political analyst lionel . what you're going to hear regarding this this russian citizen is she is called a russian agent what is missed completely is that agent should
5:13 am
be referred to as a lobbyist and agent in law in american law means a representative. when american media say agent they think secret agent. espionage agent you know something nefarious something involving behind the scenes something illegal something that is other than an agent this particular person was charged with basically being a lobbyist and asons without having registered with the department of justice could more indictments happen absolutely will the media american media clarify what that means absolutely not. hundreds of thousands of people packed the shores ollie's i am powerless to give our hero's welcome to the victorious world cup squad the winners were taken to the presidential residence being greeted by emmanuel. of they

5:15 am
incredibly was the charm of the thing was a sense of unity and everything was a soothing cradle i'm an american and i'm living here this is such a joy to see all this you know find it's really just great to embody the spirit this is what france is all about we do start a whole their words grow close to saying they're all roses as is his whole they don't need to see only the us over well over sunk so i take it is the city of paris is actually renamed to some of the metro stations you know not all of these places including our not try to understand as being renamed as not tied to the additional thing on the whole of the manager over the world cup team of course he was also the captain of front says it will cup winning team back in ninety ninety eight was back a week i was there are lights and the ecstatic. was. a similar way to the squatters they

5:19 am
good. i'm interested always in the waters in the. city may. seem wrong. just don't call. me. to say proud. and engagement equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart. she says to look for common ground. thanks for joining us today facebook has admitted categorizing thousands of russian users as quote interested in treason all supposedly for advertising purposes now
5:20 am
this is certainly led to concerns over who might really want to talk at these users as what i guess the eff explains. it's simple facebook exists to serve advertisers not users not you and i said a rerun of its. advertisers pay money they want direct access to the right uses the target audience you might fall into the interested in islam category or interested in homosexuality group it depends on the things you click on line which facebook tracks and then advertisers or governments can tag you but one of those categories was treason interested in treason officially russian people who facebook deemed as anti government to the russian and facebook confirmed it to us treason was included as
5:21 am
a category given its historical significance given it is an illegal activity we have removed it as an interest category that is their official statement they added that the key word was hardly ever used by advertisers which means that it was used there were people out there searching for treason inclined russians and serving them with presumably propaganda encouraging them to commit treason against russia months it was found out facebook removed the category but the pundits managed to twist even vat this isn't about sixty five thousand russians being targeted with foreign propaganda meddling in internal russian politics that an see they say the real control over see is that these people could be targeted by russian authorities imagine if ace book categorize americans as potential traitors
5:22 am
advertisers that blogs zuckerberg op i've expressed how upset i am that the russians try to use our tool to sow distrust what they did is room and we're not going to stand for it. and that's the meat of it when it's russians being targeted by propaganda to sow distrust in russia that's five until you get caught with r.t. has sent a request to a number of human rights and journalists groups asking for comment as to whether such a practice constitutes meddling in a country's internal affairs as a human rights watch the american civil liberties union and amnesty international have all responded saying they are not in a position to comment. i want to stay with facebook the social media giants targeted ads were also apparently used by some in the u.k. labor party to deceive their own leader that's according to
5:23 am
a recently published book control alt delete our politics and the media crashed our democracy by tom baldwin. when they were told to pay for nationwide it's regarded as madcap such as one and voter registration they made sure that few saw such messages except a tiny slice of left wing activists if it was there for them they thought it must be for everyone it was and that's how targeted ads can work a senior labor party members tasked with the spreading cauldrons campaign messages through facebook ads ahead of the twenty seventeen general election so i could only jeremy corbyn himself and his closest aides as the target group this was to ensure that as few people as possible in the u.k. would see those messages at the same time pulling the party leader into thinking his order had been carried out as a political analyst a frog says this shows there are deep divisions between the establishment and the
5:24 am
progressives within the labor party. there's an ongoing can a faith within believe or party it's actually a fate for the heart on the soul of the liberal party the liberal party was built on a socialist democratic platform that's platform was moved to the center on the deeds to the rate by twenty blur the very man who led the united kingdom into the illegal wars in iraq and when you consider what's happened there and in libya and several other countries throughout the middle east. there's no socialism in the blur right wing of the liberal party so i'm i don't think for one second that it's going to move or shaped or some high esteem misadventure misadventure i think it's been a planned operation from the start to sabotage germy corgan. a canadian pacific freight train derailed in the town of on monday night near the quebec on terrio border officials say there were no injuries authorities haven't
5:25 am
revealed what was being transported by the train but have confirmed that no hazardous materials were spilled some twenty five wagons a quarter of the train derailed and there still no information on what caused the accident we understand the investigation is underway. one of america's or two major parties the democrats may be entering a new era as left leaning progressive politicians are increasingly on seating political establishment veterans. and takes a closer look dianne feinstein has long been a top boss among the democratic party but recently the california democratic party decided not to throw its weight behind her but instead to give its endorsement to a progressive named kevin dooley on now kevin de leon saw this is a political blowout this is what he said about his shocking victory we present to california with the. washington playbook and of course a century this fits
5:26 am
a pattern here in new york city a twenty eight year old socialist defeated long time representative crowley now nancy pelosi a leader of the democratic party says that progressive is gaining the upper hand is no big deal this is isolated circumstances in certain districts we need to respond more dishing. carriageways and then in the answer that they're happening to. be in your. book aggressive. is a lesson more than palin is down to say it is not. something that's going to now deliver on and the cacio cortez say that they are giving voice to issues that the mainstream of the democratic camp is longside away from they want free health care and education for all americans they also want to abolish the immigration police for good now we decided to talk to sander hicks'
5:27 am
a progressive who's running against mainstream democrat carol maloney and new york city health care dianne feinstein was against single payer two million dollars for herself and her ten years for the richest senator out there yet she doesn't believe that people need health care so this. pretty pretty plain to me that's why bernie sanders really struck a chord and people like feinstein people like the incumbent here in the twelfth congressional district you've gotta go carolyn maloney she voted for the iraq war she voted for all the wall street bailouts the patriot act just like dianne feinstein voted for the patriot act these people are out of touch they're endorsing this national security paranoia state that favors wall street and war at this point the democratic party seems to be pretty well unified around only one thing opposing donald trump however among the rank and file there are some pretty clear disagreements about policy and it's pretty clear that in either party to be seen as a defender of the status quo just doesn't cut it with voters hey look mop and art
