as a villain but gas death looks at what's behind his fall from grace. you want to see just how radically the media you turned on a songe from champion of the press to a leper an outcast all you need to do is watch saturday night live it's comedy but boy does it hit home. thanks to wiki leaks you can see how corrupt governments operate in the shadows and then lie to those who elect them thanks to facebook you can finally figure out which sex in the city character you are i've attempted u.s. military. because i'm an actor james bond supervillain and i'm one step away from destroying the god. because reality is entirely less funny what our songes faced a tidal wave of smear really ugly stuff a little over a decade ago the us military declared war on wiki leaks drop

a plan which actually need a plan to discredit it and terrorize whistleblowers and it looks like they're winning. wiki leaks uses trust as a center of gravity by showing insiders leakers and whistleblowers who pass information to wiki leaks personnel or who post information to the website that they will remain anonymous the identification exposure terminations employment criminal prosecution legal action against current or former insider is leakers or whistleblowers could potentially damage or destroy this center of gravity and deter others from considering similar actions from using the wiki leaks website back then at the turn of the decade as sanj was a hero of the pundits cheered his leaks exposing bush era war crimes exposing the elites corporations politicians how they loved him for it was outstanding

journalism their words he was given on or after on or including the economist's new media award back then we give eeks was news wiki leaks is an online news organization that specializes in publishing documents alleging government and corporate misconduct we invited judy and a song editor in chief of wiki leaks in pity. how times have changed what was news in two thousand and ten is enemy propaganda now journalistic hero or enemy agent asks the same economist neither reads the subtitle just a useful idiot who the economist awarded for his stellar journalism or take time magazine who gave their front cover to a songe in two thousand and ten now they run virtual hit pieces quoting and headlining anyone that doesn't like a songe it seems be it hillary clinton or

a judge that met him once and labeled him a narcissist gets much dirtier uglier out. outlets that have historically supported and she did america's wars such as the atlantic put out c.c.'s pact hate mails or the equivalent of musingly enough the hack behind this story first calls out assad has premiss cutesy with facts and almost immediately after says this artist angle on his question more and indeed one might inquire how it came to pass that the spin off of a kremlin propaganda organ and now registered for an agent in the united states first arrived on the scene i stand ready to our answer your inquiry unlike other networks and publications who all learned that the same time that might be leaving the embassy we could leaks told everyone unlike them we took it seriously we went

and documented what happened this is called journalism journalism like what our sons' did when he exposed various war crimes at the end of the day come on we all know the exact moment these people turned against their former hero. maybe you're kind of picking up where julian a songe was before he went bad because we used to like a bit of we used to really be doing a good service and then something happened i guess his hatred for hillary clinton maybe is would turn him basically into someone who was a russian. aid really yes yes of course as sanjay did hillary never did anything wrong she was perfect wasn't she. the sa should answer for what he has done according to hillary clinton however newly released f.b.i. documents obtained by conservative activists kiddish

a watch suggest she and her team also have things to answer for their watchdog signed to over four hundred pages of f.b.i. documents revealing evidence of an operational white compromising e-mail sent by clinton it also says the u.s. intelligence community had concerns over classified information in some of the messages ati's evolution don i'll take a closer look. email's the reason why you freddy krueger is dressed up as an i.t. guy in hillary clinton's nightmares the f.b.i. found almost fifteen thousand and released e-mails in two year long investigation of her private server the head of the f.b.i. called you out for careless handling of classified documents said she believed the c for confidential in some documents actually stood for the order of paragraphs some three years on when everyone thought it was all over and gone new f.b.i. documents reveal more juicy details like what happened to our half of the e-mails

that were raised clean by the clinton team we're not talking just a few dozen or hundred or even a thousand e-mails here we're talking some thirty thousand all private according to clinton she did provide a detailed and meticulous explanation of how she picked which e-mails to delete how and who exactly wiped her server that potentially stored top state secrets except clinton did none of that instead she felt like joking about it to do what the sort of like the cloth or something there oh well no this is what we do i don't know how it works digitally at all. it's because you know wipe has two meanings delete or cleaning of the wine stain from last week and it's funny because it's called ever but ok now that you're all done laughing hundreds of newly revealed f.b.i.

documents shed light on how that server was wiped a company called plot river networks did all the dirty works and these conversations between two of its employees leave no questions as to why they think they did it it's all part of the hill recover our poor peroration i'll have to tell you about it of the party. thanks for the heads up but even with only half of the e-mails available the new have been a paper has revealed that from the get go key people had no doubt the server compromised classified material. i have personally reviewed hundreds of documents in the h. r. c. collection i can now say without reservation that there are literally hundreds of classified emails in this collection maybe more when this collection is released in its entirety the potential damage to the foreign relations of the united states could be significant one of the review was of the clinton's then intelligence

community inspector general charles mccullough testified in the senate that documents beyond top secret were stored on the north the right server is what happened next it was personal blowback to me to my family to my office i was told by members of congress be careful you're losing your credibility are people at the get to there was an effort on the certainly on the part of the campaign to mislead people in the sense that there was nothing to see here. the clinton campaign released a statement in two thousand and fifteen claiming that none of the e-mails had been classified at the time and were only assigned levels of secrecy as a result of the investigation yet the f.b.i. knew everything from the panic signs setting in over the secrecy of the information handled by this to the clean up crew admitting a cover up but eventually james komi sided with clinton although there is evidence

of potential violations of the statutes regarding the handling of classified information our judgment is that no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case although the department of justice makes final decisions on matters like this we are expressing to justice our view that no charges are appropriate in this case well this is been the problem all along i mean we had james komi who was practically a criminal accomplice in helping hillary if they'd prosecution or conviction or even charges for what she did and this is this is not even a minute factor this is the main factors that the f.b.i. is no longer an objective and i guess you could say ethical law enforcement agency . a prominent palestinian activists has been prevented from flying to the u.s. from israel despite having a valid visa. is co-founder of

a movement to boycott israel which seeks to end what it considers the jewish state's oppression of palestine we spoke to him to his story. i was. prevented from boarding a flight of eve airport because under instructions from the u.s. consulate u.s. immigration have banned me from entering the u.s. despite having a valid visa and valid travel documents we see this as outsourcing its mccarthyite antidemocratic repression against the b.d.s. movement for human rights in palestine to the united states the us administration has been mobilized now to do israel's bidding and trying to silence palestinian israeli and international human rights defenders who are active in this extremely important and very effective nonviolent b.d.s. movement. human rights groups have expressed outrage at washington's decision calling it the politicized station of borders so far american authorities have

refused to give any comment saying all information relating to the case is confidential barghouti was traveling to the u.s. to take part in a speaking tour at several prominent universities including panel discussions with policymakers and journalists barghouti co-founded the boycott divestment and sanctions movement known as b.d.s. in two thousand and five it calls on the international community to stop supporting israel and its companies it also seeks to return the territory in the west bank to palestinians in turn tell of eve accuses the movement of being anti semitic than dica director of the two islam center for public affairs says the decision to deny barghouti entry was not arbitrary. think that is the that's the argument that we're hearing all over the place is that this is what they call the shutting of mouths in the and the closing of free and the prohibition of free speech but this is not the issue of omar barghouti all more barghouti from the united states point of view as a foreign agent with terror links to the islamic jihad p f l p hamas and other

designated to or get as asians by the united states and europe so they don't like to have those types of terror related to vigils coming into the united states. to date over half of all u.s. states have introduced laws penalizing point consequence israel earlier this year the senate passed a bill allowing states to terminate contracts with entities which support the boycott movement barghouti again says this legislation comes from fear of the movement growing in popularity. the u.s. supreme court to ruled that boycotts for political social and economic change are considered free speech protected by the first amendment of the us constitution so all those twenty seven states are following israel's orders basically but they're violating their own u.s. constitution we will challenge that we are challenging that in u.s. courts a.c.l.u.

is challenging at least three states on their antidemocratic. laws and we think we will prevail in the struggle israel is trying to suppress b.d.s. from above by passing laws because it has miserably failed to stop the immense growth of the movement at the grassroots level among the unions churches women's groups energy beauty groups and so on and so forth. the european elections are looming with support for parties on the right comes amid fresh allegations of russian backing china do bensky has the details. the anti establishment parties already set records in the twenty fourteen election winning one hundred and sixty seats more than twenty percent of the parliament if the current polls are anything to go by and they'll smersh these figures at the expense of the traditional big block alliances with new comers from both the left and the right embracing social

media they're out pacing their established mainstream rivals but that's caught some questioning whether there is a secret driving force behind it all it's russian meddling of course what else were you thinking there is no doubt that russia will be a major malign actor we have twenty seven countries participating in that election and they are not equally well prepared to avoid and prevent foreign meddling russia is very likely to try to intervene in the european parliament elections to secure as many seats as possible for the pro russian or euro skeptical political forces the media are lapping it up with just over a month before the european elections the starting guns have been fired a new tag teams are forming particularly amongst anti establishment parties in italy to use ovine as the league has announced

a joint venture with parties from at least five other countries well his alliance has hopes of winning big by taking a hundred and fifty seats in the parliament but he has competition from his own new coalition government partner five star its leader luigi demaio is also looking to make a new alliances with four other parties outside italy and let's not forget that unexpected twist to the course the you. k. which wasn't even supposed to be a member of the e.u. by now is also looking to field candidates knowing joel for all she thought he'd already hung up his recent shoes is dipping his toes back again this time with a brand new party actually named breaks it i can't imagine what it stands for this party is not here. just to fight the repeal of actions and the twenty third of

may this year this party is not here to ask people simply to express their anger by going to the ballot box and voting present day night the twenty third of may. is the first step of the backs of our task and mission is to change politics pretty good to change us thank you. that's a straight to the problem for the euro and there's nothing to do with the haitians that the left and the democratic the democratic hide them in their own the people are not on the so-called further you have been committed to that project because the political project that their fantasies now they're going to make the people of you have these appear and become one great people you know. the utopian people will meet your claim of the other another investigation is that they were going to prove a collusion between the time campaign and

a conclusion from which means a neck and active behavior on the part of the time campaign and then that case as to that it collapsed it is being refuted by the media hope or for months and years the mainstream media the liberal media the so-called democratic media in the united states but also in europe also in france at least has been repeating things business that can be seen effective putting an agent of a is in the pocket book at the the country which is totally for one of these mean cleanest collapsed the reason is why should we believe the other claims. u.s. republican senator calls for military action to prevent what he calls a genocide president. story. you know world a big part of the law and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig

deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door. and shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks. make this manufacture consent to public wealth. when the ruling class is protect themselves. when the final go around lifts and be the one percent. we can all middle of the room.

welcome back to the program the us republican senator has called for military action in venezuela in order to prevent what he's calling a genocide by president nicolas materia washington recognized the venezuelan opposition leader as interim president in january and has repeatedly stated that all options are on the table if maturer doesn't go. we've got to really consider whether we do military. you know help getting this aid in disdain save the starving people of venezuela they are starving to death i mean this is genocide emma duros doing it meanwhile an american a think tank called the center for strategic and international studies or c.s.i.s. has reportedly held an off the record meeting to assess the. use of military force in venezuela a list of roughly forty attendees of the event includes current and former u.s.

officials including from the state department my colleague neil harvey spoke to max blumenthal the editor of grey zone dot com and the man behind the report. i confirmed that the meeting took place with a staffer at c.s.i.s. however she refused to give me details grik stream lee nervous on the phone in a second source who participated in the meeting who confirmed it also refused to give details they were extremely nervous that somebody in the media knew about the existence of this event it was a very high level meeting with basically the main people in washington involved in making the sausage of trump's venezuela policy one of the more interesting elements was the participation of high level staffers from the u.s. agency for international development and usa id is now talking about military options so this could be done under the auspices of some kind of humanitarian

intervention to save venezuelans but it's really interesting that an aid agency is participating in this discussion and the u.s. is using economic sanctions as a form of unilateral coercion in place of a military invasion that's according to the un special rapporteur or edris just sciri. and they don't seem to be removing the dura the u.s. has called on the military in venezuela to turn on the door on they've stood firm and honored the constitution and one kind of on a tour around venezuela and he's not rallying the crowds the u.s. had hoped for and so i see this secret or a private meeting at c.s.i.s. as evidence of the u.s. is desperation and they're trying to find any means to dislodge after several months if the u.s. will seize military force to go in to a sovereign nation do you think that the people of america would tolerate that and on not i think this would cause an existential crisis for the trumpet ministration

many people think trump would be happy to distract from his problems but i think you would see an anti-war movement similar to the kind that we had during the invasion of iraq with hundreds of thousands of people in the streets. and you'd have a catastrophe across south america the entire region right in the us and so-called backyard would be destabilized so in many ways this is unworkable but i never underestimate the arrogance of washington's elite policymakers. popular american fast food chain chick fil a has been banned from a number of u.s. airports after its owner expressed support for the biblical definition of a family unit something that didn't fly with the.

everyone has a place here and everyone should feel welcome when they walk through our airport. the views of chick fil a number present our state and business is the support discrimination have no place operating in taxpayer funded public facilities. we know that this is a strong an inclusive community we need to make sure that business is there respect these values. sure i'm aware of their beliefs but i personally get a kick out of thinking how each time i walk in there they've served my gate. it's good chicken if they aren't willing to give up a burger they aren't going to give their tickets to gays who go they probably already know so why do you think you can change their mind this is childish.

take over and around thirty minutes time but do stay with us for going underground which is next on our. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy. let it be an arms race off and spearing dramatic development only loosely i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful. if you sit down and talk.

seemed wrong. just don't call. me. yet to shape out these days to come out ok and engagement equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart. choose to look for common ground. he's about to be alone.
