went home i was asked to leave because i work for president trump. thank you. really. really really this latest case shows that the u.s. is going more and more polarized and it's not just limited to protesters we're now witnessing disagreement between the federal government and the state government which could potentially have very severe repercussions or blog i'm sorry brian logan says the mainstream media has contributed to the ongoing hysteria surrounding the agency. i think he will see more conversations like this this is not anything new this is been going on for a little wow every seach trying to get a leg in these people are totally irrational and they're driving largely by the mainstream media because a lot of media talks about over here in the states is ice is evil ice is corrupt defend the separation was so regular everyday people there are no phone no data to get no say to get triggered and they go out there and do these things largely

because they are being programmed to do so so as long as the mainstream media is complicit is days you can continue to see more things like this unfortunately. british media reports claim the manchester arena suicide bomber was rescued from water only appear by the british navy in twenty fourteen three years before his terror attack the blast at the ariana grande pop concert killed twenty two the youngest an eight year old girl ati's polly boyko reports well according to media reports here in the u.k. three years before that deadly attack in manchester sound the baby had been rescued by the british government from libya it was part of an operation to rescue british citizens he was taken aboard a royal navy ship and taken to malta from where he reportedly then got a flight back to the u.k. and he'd been rescued by the british government even though he had been under the

surveillance of the domestic intelligence agency head that's m i five now in terms of a baby's background he was born in the u.k. but libyan parents say he was a british citizen but in two thousand and eleven a baby's parents moved to join the uprising against the government of gadhafi and his father was thought to have been fighting in a terrorist group called the ally f.g. the libyan islamic fighting group and a baby was thought to sort of shuttled back. forth between the u.k. and libya for a number of years but he was thought to have been in libya in the summer of two thousand and fourteen and at that point the civil war had got increasingly violent and so british officials made this offer to evacuate british nationals from the country that's how a baby ended up being rescued and by the time of his rescue m i five

had stopped monitoring him and the implication therefore is that he was simply considered safe to return back to the u.k. that was reiterated to us by the today in a statement they told us that sort of the government inquiry into what led up to the manchester attack it found that the decision to start monitoring a baby in two thousand and fourteen was found on the basis of the information available at the time and although they didn't mention a baby by name in this statement to us they did confirm that the operation to rescue british citizens from libya in two thousand and fourteen took place during beauty routine security situation in libya in two thousand and fourteen. with the british nationals and their dependents and i think what the government has been

keen to point out is that that decision to close the case and invade in two thousand and fourteen based on the information they had at the time the point they're making there is that no one could have known back then that upon his return to the u.k. he would go to war to start this sort of downward spiral of radicalization that word culminate with that horrific attack at the area on the ground descant in manchester arena last may. three russian journalists have been killed in the central african republic after the break. join me every first week on the all excited i'm sure and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sport this list i'm showbusiness i'll see you then.

the idea of spending money to acquire region to acquire territory to acquire wealth is an oxymoron there is no more wealth to acquire the ecosystem is collapsing the economy is flooded with worthless paper and the species is migrating over to the digital speer feasibly these networks and platforms people are uploading their minds into cyberspace and hope to become a more cool so every dollar spent on defense every dollar spent by the pentagon is a wasted dollar it's a one thousand eight hundred seventeen sixteenth century mindset it's completely antiquated and it's utterly worthless.

welcome back the russian foreign ministry has confirmed three russian journalists have died in the central african republic and my colleague you know neil discussed the news with r.t.s. mori a few notions. if an option is with me now on the shooter for more on this. talking in the previous hours confirmation. not confirm we are awaiting for some kind of conclusion on this we seem to have got it yet it is now confirmed that three russian journalists were killed in an attack while on assignment in central african republic their dead

bodies were discovered by un peacekeeping personnel on the ground some twenty to thirty kilometers north of central c.t. siebold on the road and an abandoned car also was discovered at the scene trast with multiple gunshots so it looks like the team was attacked by a large group of gunmen known reasons what exactly happened unclear there. i guess the investigation is now. on the ground buddies of the three journalists were first taken to u.n. facility. and then later transferred to one of the hospitals in the capital city. and this is where the bodies are currently and we hear from russian embassy that they will organize their return to their homeland as soon as possible and this is the call them and from russia's foreign ministry that she diplomatic our diplomats

will certainly work with all the documentation found at the scene where the borders were detected the russian foreign ministry is working alongside russian law enforcement and diplomats who are in direct contact with law enforcement in the central african republic. ok so what do we know about the group there the journalist group do we know what they were actually working on what assignment they were all actually it's not quite clear what days simon of these journalist in central african republic was the primary employee they were filming a documentary about foreign mercenaries on the ground some say particulary private walk contract or some mention a group known as wagner was present was never confirmed it was present in the central african republic was never confirmed reportedly it has links to russia if you words about who they were jamal he was well known walker's point and reported from afghanistan syria libya iraq he was fifty one years old well experienced

journalist forty seven year old documentary director alexander to start ago you know he had been awarded multiple prices for his work very well known i mean name among journalists as well and get a lot to go he was a cameraman the youngest of the team he was around thirty three years old all you know very professional journalists experienced and as their friends now say colleagues are very brave and passionate let's now listen to what. friend told us i told her no woman and those who promised to protect them would fool them but now it does not matter the central african republic is an extremely dangerous place for white people especially without military protection they do research dangerous things mercenaries and there is a civil war in which a person's life cost nothing not a penny unfortunately my friend from a victim to this war you just feel for their families getting getting not call her about their loved ones time to grieve. but thanks for bringing us the latest update

on this. now facebook has removed thirty two accounts and pages including on instagram which the media john believes might influence the u.s. mid-term elections in november. today we removed thirty two pages of the accounts from facebook and instagram because they were involved in coordinated in authentic behavior this kind of behavior is not allowed on facebook because we don't want people or organizations creating networks of accounts to mislead others about who they are or what they're doing or facebook says the deleted accounts were being used to organize protests next week in washington yet the instagram accounts had no followers and four of the facebook pages had ten or fewer followers or or facebook says the pages went to far greater lengths to cover their tracks than the russian based internet research agency supposedly had in the past well facebook says it doesn't know whether these new bad actors as they call them are linked to

russia or not however it says there is evidence of the p.-n. use and use of the accounts by third parties well social media platform found no evidence of russian ip addresses being linked to the pages in question but a new round of accusations of so-called russian meddling have erupted in the western media russian actors continue to try to disrupt metal infiltrate the u.s. political debate of the elections themselves well russia is interfering they are continuing to interfere russia has been mentioned as the likely source of this interference in terms russians and other nation states absolutely are attempting to manipulate us. before all this let's cross live now to executive director at the ron paul institute daniel mcadams daniel thank you very much indeed for joining us to discuss this let's have a look at some of the facts and figures that face because deleted several what looked to be very unpopular accounts where the real threat. well these are i think thirty little more than thirty accounts and facebook has two point two billion

users. as of last month so we're talking about such an infinitesimal small amount that it's hard to imagine this is a significant thing when facebook at so in this press release today said we have we haven't done really an investigation we don't know the facts we don't know who's behind it but then the next answer said but it looks a lot like what the russians did before so obviously they admit that they have no facts but by golly it's got to be the russians again trying to sow divisions among americans this is a conclusion they make well yeah i mean facebook says no evidence as you say russian links but american media on the politicians they already accusing russia of election meddling as you say why is it that they are so quick to play russian well the neo cons are behind it and actually taste brooke if you if you dive down a little bit into their release today here's where they get their information their information comes to them from their partnership with the atlantic council the

atlantic council is funded by the us government it's funded by nato it's voted by the u.s. military and it's funded by u.s. defense contractors this is an absolute neo con rabidly anti russia think tank in washington d.c. these are the people paid by our governments that determine what we're allowed to see on facebook and they say that is the horners meddling in our free speech it's actually u.s. funded quote quezon i think takes a large tents that are meddling in our free speech let's also look at the timing of this is well i mean as you know the congressional elections every three months time in the opinion polls a saying that the democrats well they could be in a fair for a tough time i mean is there for russian meddling going to be the democrats excuse if they underperform in the midterm elections. well these accounts seem to somewhat favor i guess the left of the question is why what does it mean to be an inauthentic account it's not really explain for

a well if someone is against the u.s. immigration policy which is some of these anti ice accounts apparently were maybe they would like to conceal their identity maybe they're afraid of the u.s. authorities somehow putting a nefarious strain on this one it may just be someone who doesn't want to have their identity known it's a strange thing are we allowed to be private into for identities private in the u.s. without people assuming that somehow there are some foreign hand meddling in things it's very strange and i said this on the flip side is what i mean that's what i look at the republican side i mean how do you think i got to react to this well unfortunately books both parties are very similar when it comes to finding foreign threats abroad and that's because the military industrial complex in washington to see benefits from enemies abroad and this is exactly what they're trying to do so they will both try to point fingers at the other but the real question is what does it mean that someone is trying to sow divisions among americans are we not allowed

to disagree with each other on fundamental issues like immigration and other things and i looked at some of the pages and some of them were sort of pro-feminist women shouldn't have to cook for their for their man i mean how is this supposed to is a russian effort to sort of visions americans have always disagreed that's the nature of society of a free society you disagree with the people i think the mentality is nice is like north korea or something it's very bizarre and it has got to be in sync as well and it's three months time isn't it don't you mcadams from the wrong porn institute thank you very much indeed thank you. well for more on these stories and plenty of other news and features. i'll be back at the top of the hour with the latest headlines you get that. russia is one of the countries and most by capacity and all the very high population does that mean russia does need to be concerned about sustainability i would say yes absolutely you are no lucky situation where you have

a lot of farm per person so to say you know you have a lot of wealth ecological wealth and but the word is very scarce so that's a huge economic advantage as well and saying wow this is an amazing farm let's look after it well because that's our ad said that bush has made a loss to live well the long run. with coal make this manufacture consent to stick to the public will. when the ruling classes protect themselves. with the flame and cleary go round the sun be the one percent. we can all middle of the room sick. i mean real news.

this is phone bus broadcasting around the world from washington d.c. i'm part children thank you for watching coming up today as president trump says he'll meet with iranian officials with no precondition what does that mean for their number one economic engine. boyle alex one hile of it helps us figure it out and tells us the latest with the saudi aramco initial public offering it's delayed yet again plus as the federal open markets committee meets what's the fed reserve up to and will they make any news daniele de martino booth the c.e.o. of the intelligence joins us to tell us and it is your smart t.v. spying on you watch out manila chan gives us the details steve malzberg helps us understand how it does that you will leverage the assets and as tributes of twenty

first century fox when this sale goes through what's to get to but first we hit a few headlines. tech stocks are in correction territory and some investors are wondering if the market is moving into a new phase the fabled fang group of stocks facebook alphabet corp the parent of google of course netflix and amazon were all down significantly in trading on monday with losses draining from two percent for alphabet to nearly six percent for netflix sometimes fang included stock apple took a much smaller nick of point five percent after monday facebook was down a total of thirteen percent in july the tech heavy nasdaq index closed down one point four percent overall on monday and u.s. president donald trump has said that the he would be willing to meet with the president of iran in response to a question at a joint press conference yesterday with the italian prime minister mr trump expressed a broad general inclination to meet with adversaries with no preconditions so i

believe in meeting i would certainly meet with iran if they wanted to meet i don't know that they're ready yet to have a hard time right now. but i ended the deal it was a ridiculous deal i do believe that they will probably end up wanting to meet and i'm ready to meet anytime they want to and i don't do that from strength or from weakness i think it's an appropriate thing to do if we could work something out that's meaningful not the waste of paper that the other deal was i would certainly be willing to me mr trump's backing away from the nuclear deal brokered by the five plus that the p five plus one group of nations has severely undermined advocate for diplomacy within iran and made meetings with u.s. diplomats a virtual political suicide mission for any iranian official european partners have been quietly see that mr trump's attacks on their hard fought diplomatic achievement and lobbied hard against trump administration's plans to reimpose

economic sanctions that were lifted as part of the accord barring any diplomatic breakthroughs the white house will reimpose economic sanctions against iran next week on currencies metals and in the auto sector sanctions on shipping and oil iran's primary source of foreign exchange are set to snap back in place in november and as president trump says he'll meet with iranian officials with no preconditions what does that mean for their number one economic engine oil alex my hyla bitch helps us figure it out and tells us the latest on the saudi aramco i.p.o. it's delayed yet again alex let's start with iran what's the latest when it comes to their main export oil. well of the just look at oil itself today dropped by about one dollar to sixty nine dollars and that has a lot to do with this new tone of president trump here diplomacy as it's a funny thing how headlines and press releases actually change oil prices and just this happens to be one of those headlines now that also all of this is wonderful

hearing the way trump is talking and i think most of us in this world would like to see diplomacy and discussion about war or bombing people so that's a great thing but at the same time just these are the the looming sanctions that are supposed to kick in in november are having an impact on you and already we're looking at about one hundred thousand barrels a day last in sales for iran in the month of july and we're hearing that many companies are stepping out of the rant knowing that these sanctions are going to come into play so i mean obviously we're hoping that this doesn't happen that there is a deal struck with the with mr donald trump but we'll see what happens in that respect but let's talk about those companies one of the biggest companies is total total is a french energy giant they've stepped back they were actually the first company to go into ran in two thousand and fifteen when sanctions were dropped and they are stepping out now we're also hearing about banks banks are not willing to finance iranian oil anymore so we can see the impact from their part of that part as well

and here's a big india is going to buy less oil from iran they're ready doing so they're trying to play nice nice with the united states and cozy up to the american government so that might be a big hit now that everybody's they hey look iran's done no iran is far from done because there is one country out there that buys more oil from iran than anybody else more than india which is number two and that would be china china has already promised you know what we're going to buy more oil if these sanctions kick in and here's a double whammy we're going to wean ourselves off of american oil so when china says something like this the whole world listen. and of course free rent just having that that ally to keep them afloat that's a big deal we've also hearing that russia is willing to step in if some of these companies move out so rand does have some cushioning around it even if the sanctions take and hopefully though we can hear from mr trump some more and

hopefully these people actually do sit down and meet with the iranian government and we don't have to go through this whole dog and pony show it looks alex like you know just oil prices maybe throwing a monkey wrench into saudi arabia's reform plans there with mohammed bin solomon and at the center of all is that saudi aramco which they say has been delayed what do you know. iran caught in the what a monster of a company that is and we're talking about a big long term plan here the crown prince of saudi arabia we've talked about this before he wants to modernize his nation and he wants to wean his nation off of oil there rampal i.p.o. was a part of this is pushing this forward forward but a lot of the rank of remco exacts are saying this is not a good time to do it the way that oil prices are going up and down it's probably not their best interest but just let's learn a little bit about aramco i mean does this company's not that here's a couple graphs to explain to you what i've read call really is absolutely huge

beat out companies and profit like apple samsung microsoft or you can see exxon is way down there when you compare it to aramco and it would have been the world's biggest i.p.o. or it will be when this happened that i was a bigger that alley bob and that was at twenty five billion that's your think it was a whole company get a guy p.o.d. that's a no this is a five percent of a red go we're talking about five percent it's going to be valued anywhere people are saying between fifty and seventy five billion the crown prince was looking more at one hundred billion dollars number in his head that he thought would be wonderful if this deal that actually goes down but it doesn't look like it's going to happen this way we're hearing now that this deal is probably going to be delayed once again as you mentioned. four into two thousand and nineteen and you know it's really not that bad for the saudis at this point because the crown prince himself has a lot of other business on his hands like economic and social reforms at home as well as the fact that his foreign policy and we're seeing the way things are moving he's paying a lot of attention to that as well and for looking just at the other side of things

from. a little bit while back with the crown prince did when he put all those people into the ritz carlton well they collected about one hundred billion dollars there and that was money that was out there anti corruption deal that they did or the be reported with that it was absolutely lot of money one hundred billion dollars that's with use hoping for their rent go five percent so they're pretty cushy right now there's their war chest is full they're not really too afraid that they have to do this deal right away but it's something that they'll definitely want to push forward in modernizing their country and becoming a part more so of the world community always great information really really super interesting today thank you so much art to correspondent alex mileage thanks alex. and in the wake of last friday's second quarter g.d.p. numbers of four point one percent the federal reserve's open markets committee

meets tuesday and wednesday and what are they discussing and what can we tell you about it here to help is the c.e.o. quil intelligence and the author of fed up why the federal reserve is bad for america daniel de martino both danielle thank you welcome it's always the u.s. economy has accelerated that four point one percent growth rate in q two and that's a quickest pace and twenty fourteen and president trump has and should rightly claim some victory for his policies and when we look at growth in light of the f o m c meeting today and tomorrow in washington what are the metric that the governors are going to be considering. well i think that they're going to be trying to figure out what happens on the other side of this great big report will we see sustained growth of this level in the quote in the third quarter that we're currently in you know to tipped on the plus side we have indeed seen inventories run down dramatically which was a surprise in the second quarter g.d.p. report one of the reasons that some analysts had their forecast upwards of five

percent so we know that we're going to have a lot of support going into the third quarter the question will come down to what is happening with u.s. households their ability to keep spending at the levels they've been spending at their ability to keep pulling this economy along and we actually got some consumer confidence data today bart that suggests we have a pullback in the offing right now i saw that and they revised the number two and and we're speaking about those numbers daniel recall back i think we've spoken about it i'm sure we have back in the campaign in two thousand and sixteen there is the president look at the campaign trail as it were to get four five six maybe seven percent g.d.p. and a lot of us said oh come on you know what do you smoke and but i want to explain for all the boom busters out there when we look at the economy and the fed talks about a one point eight percent g.d.p. growth rate and so does the congressional budget office i mean what's really

something that we could expect if we're if we're at four point one now get to the end of the year is it two is it three. well i think that there is a high possibility that we actually see a three percent annual figure which really would be extraordinary given how slow this recovery has been but again i think the fed is going to try and focus more on what happens after the third quarter what happens going into the fourth quarter i mean as you just mentioned campaign promises can be whatever campaign promises can be i mean look at what the italians promised all of their people craziness but just the same going further out past this year look at it this way i'm in new york today bart if wall street firms have begun to budget for a recession to hit in the year twenty twenty that really means that they're internally budgeting for twenty nineteen there is no way that i think we can completely eradicate the business cycle so there will be slowing at some point in the next twelve months in my view and that's why i think they have these estimates

of one point eight so two questions on that one is and this is not a reflection on this president or any other president i mean the demographics just aren't there you've got folks like me the baby boomers were getting older were we're not in the workforce and so then we require the rest of the economy to support retirees so the impact on growth has got to be negative just on the demographics right. well the demographics are certainly not supportive of growth going forward the last time that we went into a downturn in two thousand and eight the entire baby boomer population had a lot more optionality than they have today they were able to say you know what i'm going to stay in the workforce for another decade now we see the outer edge of the one nine hundred forty six birth year turning seventy two this year so this is the same optionality is simply not there which means that there's going to be a drag as they start to take pull at their retirement assets they'll be a drag on the stock market they'll be a drag on public pensions so these are things that cannot be argued that this was

the largest generation in u.s. history and it will take some money a lot of money to finance all of them millions of them in retirement that's super interesting about they don't have the option ality i know a lot of people they said with the economic downturn i got to go back to work you know they came out of retirement they don't have that option now released a lot of them don't but let me ask you about another impact on g.d.p. the tax cut you got to say it's helped you know companies do some investing there is you're arguing about too many stock buybacks but that's also going to fade over time right i mean that's sort of a sugar high won't be there for too long will it well that is one of the concerns going forward i mean there's only one time that you can bring money back onshore there's only one huge boost to share buybacks companies also have to consider that they're buying their shares at extremely high valuations and that they're not as shareholder friendly activities as they used to be and again to your point if you're speaking about the long term viability of the.
