back in october of 2018 that the f.b.i. misused surveillance data to look into american residence including other f.b.i. employees and other family members making large scale queries that did not distinguish between u.s. persons and foreign intelligence targets and that the f.b.i. his actions were a major violation of the 4th amendment to our constitution that protects that assumes from on reasonable search and seizure these revelations even caught the eye of n.s.a. whistleblower edward snowden who tweeted wow the f.b.i. is running a warrantless internet surveillance program so flag really unconstitutional that even the secret rubber stamp court that approved 99.967 percent of the surveillance requests over 33 years felt they couldn't turn a blind eye. my friends when your surveillance scandal runs so deep that you can get a wow from edward snowden then you know you've reached a pretty obscene new low which is why we must always be watching the hawks.

to. get the. real that it's really. hard to. see. what it's like you know that i got. with. this. it's like. well the women are watching the robot and i thought. wow. wow as as sort of gone through the f.b.i. was searching for information involving large number numbers of americans with no individualized basis for suspicion of any wrongdoing. meaning they were looking at large groups of people and not looking at them in any way specifically because they did anything wrong they kept no records. about how often agents were

searching for information about u.s. citizens until last year when congress made them do it and then court rulings also several searches and. apparently involved f.b.i. efforts to identify americans whom it could try to develop into potential confidential sources. game there by the f.b.i. . devastating. absolutely devastating you know sometimes it didn't even stop with them searching like you know. all these americans searching for sources 1 march 2017 search actually more than 70000 identifiers linked to surprise surprise the f.b.i.'s all in the workforce identifies with things like e-mail address and things like that in one case and they will use the database to search for information on himself his relatives and other f.b.i. personnel it's like they're using this database like you use google. i mean it's

just absolutely blows my mind it was kind of interesting because their reaction to the story u.s. representative just. said this is 50702 and 28 and i led the charge against the establishment to stop this program president attacked my efforts and signed it into law with the support of ryan palosi mccarthy. it's an outrageous violation of our constitution and our right. and that's what really all comes down to this like they constantly. we cannot rely at times on congress to actually protect our rights on any given but just look the other way around or we can go after the f.b.i. we can't go after the surveillance community the intelligence community and all that kind of thing and when we do they just seem to go around in this case i mean that's i mean we've we've heard about this forever about 10 years of listening to they're looking at that they're searching anything they want they're searching themselves they're searching their friends or searching their axes they're abusing the system that they have. when you think about the fact that you have. a 1000000

people with security clearances. and have access to these databases that it becomes a little scary because a very large number of people and you can't prove it on the other side if you're in the middle of a divorce your access. databases and are going to find information on you there's no way for you to prove or even request information. that's an interesting i never even thought about that when you're. using it for personal reasons not even like suppose that's like oh man and then it just goes deep but it just shows the lack of regard for the sanctity of our right. because they don't i mean think about it right now right now the supreme court is deciding whether certain groups of people because of the clothes they wear or who they say they have sex with deciding whether those people have the same rights as the rest of us and you wonder why you

haven't tired of us citizens who sit and don't even think about it you wonder why the n.s.a. the u.s. government everybody else security as everything all of them they all their whole job is digging into our stuff to try to catch us before we do it because it's easier to catch things before they happen than deal with the actual problem or do what you're supposed to do which is investigate the crime once it's happened. and it's really at this point in time i really do think that we need to take a realistic step back and really look at how these agencies operate and what is put in place to prevent this from happening again and also look at the repercussions of the fact that no one ever seems to go to jail whenever they're called for these things and no one's ever really punished so that's what allows people say well hey we. a slap on the wrist of

a few bad ones will be ok but next time we want to do it. like dominoes falling in a game nobody wants to play turkish warplanes began bombing areas in north eastern syria this was the predicted fallout after u.s. president donald trump ordered the removal of u.s. troops from the border between turkey and syria are to america's saya tavenner as the latest. turkey's military has begun its operation in northern syria as part of an offensive to move us back kurdish forces away from its borders now already hundreds of civilians in northern syria have fled areas on the border with turkey just within the last few hours and turkey's already using heavy all tillery and conducted air strikes in syria now after turkey's offensive began today there were signs of panic on the streets of one of the towns under attack with residential areas close at the border now throwing more confusion on the situation

in syria president trump put out a statement that the u.s. does not endorse his attack and has made it clear to turkey that this operation is a bad idea now president trump has also said that he's monitoring the situation to make sure on necessary casualties would not occur and now with no u.s. troops in that region it's very hot unclear just how the u.s. would even monitor the turkish defense now the security general of nato has urged turkey to not further destabilize the region through its military action. to act with restraint it's. i'm sure that the action to each other and should go disproportionate michoud. we must chip was the games made to get against over coleman and let me us because all this is continues to pose a great threat to the media just. also if you don't. nato secretary-general

stalin's burg is expected to discuss this issue further with president are they gone in istanbul on friday and that the united nations security council is also planning to meet privately tomorrow morning to discuss the situation in syria now 5 european countries including france germany and the united kingdom have requested this meeting so here is the gist of it turkey is saying that they want to create a safe zone cleared of kurdish terrorists which also house some in turkey is 3600000 syrian refugees who fled worn torn syria but those same kurds who are they gonna is calling terrorists were key u.s. allies in defeating the jihadist group islamic state in syria in fact the kurds are currently guarding thousands of isis fighters in prison and camps an area under their control so it's really unclear whether the isis fighters will continue to be safely detained as many fear that the turkish incursion might lead to their

resurgence of the extremists now already isis launched 3 suicide bombing against kurdish positions in northeast syria just this morning not even a pentagon and state department officials held meetings today to try to persuade turkey to abandon its expected invasion which seems of course too late now and this has caused so much criticism that even senator lindsey graham it's hop republican and ally your president is once again cautioned the president's decision to pull back u.s. troops from northern syria. this is this is a great a bold because it's like i just today with the president with president trump about like you know why you know what about protecting the kurds they were our allies things like that he said literally well they didn't really protect us in world war 2. and they weren't there at the invasion of normandy but we still are still good people. essentially. the just blows my mind at the end of the day that we're

allowing yourself and i'm happy to see troops leave but u.s. troops leave we shouldn't be there in the 1st place but there's better ways to protect allies and things like that but allowing turkey to describe a border and start bombing the way right one of the things i think that's interesting is that we don't know at all the scale of this operation and it marks the 3rd. military operation that turkey has taken in syria and northern syria in 3 years so they keep going on there and as you said you know one person's terrorist is another person's freedom fighter i mean. this is very specifically like turkey is calling them terrorists but saying they're going after isis saying they're going after about terrorists and if you didn't know that's who they were talking about you haven't been paying attention you know this is this whole thing of whose definition of was which is one of the reasons why we

shouldn't be involved in these things and the way that we are because you have you know the p.k. you have you know the kurds you have all of these different factions of different groups and depending on what side of the border you're working on what side of the border you're you were born on these things mean very very different situations to everyone involved that's really very very much room in thing is to is like it's crazy because like you know you have so there's here in the u.s. we're pushing back saying that they're going to sanction turkey for their actions which is i'm going to put them a direct i mean we all know sanction in your country has done it does so much i mean look at they've obviously like crumbled to america the 3040 years that they have been. so they're good for guard. troops don't forget to let us know what you've been to the top or to govern on our social media be sure to check gold watch ignores the aga is now available. spot up

on apple music and everywhere you see your favorite podcast coming up legal medial media apple's lion-el of the 10th anniversary of the balloon boy hoax that started the viral lose from sanity you're going to david with the state to. the head off ice is. regrouping they have sleeping. in in iraq but the studio too so we have to did with this problem long term.

so i think the. global object. to my hardest to and dash was to convince. donnish. telling. me my mother. had been a bicycle. the

monkey can move the whole thing as you bozo the clown was unable to punish and moving them. well you know so you don't last you know many of these young is there. by so much more to see he choose to do so not to sin and. this is. going to. join me every thursday on the island so i wouldn't shoot and i'll be speaking to get us through the world of politics or business i'm sure both of those i'll show you that you were.

on october 15th 2009 across our very young social media feeds came word of a 6 year old child trapped in a weather balloon 7000 feet in the air he family had told police and the media that their child and men seemed climbing into the basket of their experimental weather balloon that consisted of i'm not getting plastic tarps covered in aluminum foil held together with duct tape and string and as a floater over a mile in the sky or hour and a half traveling 50 miles the world watched and i mean of the world it took over cable t.v. especially c.n.n. for our workers. and as i work from home at the time even i was writing on facebook

it turns out that i was completely engrossed by this balloon thing completely moments later i used to we did this balloon thing is wrapping my heart out please please please let it be ok. in the end the boy falcon heene it was ok because he had never been in the balloon at all the child had been hiding in the attic of his own home the entire time and it wasn't until wolf blitzer famously asked falcon live on air if he could hear his family calling 7 for him. when he was hiding in the attic that the truth was revealed and to hear you scream you know it felt your vulgar. justin fargas did you hear us calling your name at any time you did you did. and why did you come out of. a. league game for your show.

did it for the show a mere month later in november of 2009 richard haney pled guilty to the charge of attempting to influence a public servant for lying to them about the answer that he was sentenced to attempting to influence a public servant sorry one who had 90 days in jail 100 hours of community service and was ordered to pay $3036000.00 in restitution however the news business that salivated over the possible tragedy has not spent one single day reflecting on their part in making the hoax a national sensation they've paid no restitution for the lack of basic journalism instead they've taken the industry down a very dark path and here to discuss the 10th anniversary of balloon boy and how it predicted the wreckage we've seen now across the news web skip is lawyer and media analyst lionel of i know media. i love this story. more than

i talk to friends of mine i said you were balloon boy. whatever happened to the throw some of that because you used to tend to be historians war of the worlds in their mercury theater clifford irving rosie ruiz is a roll of these. stories professional wrestling the work kayfabe all of this this was some type of us psychosocial test it wasn't just a bad story and i think we learned a lot from this and you know what i mean the old e.b.'s he had this been a national emergency you would have been this was a test to see whether we could actually captivate everybody's attention and the answer is yes we can do that we have this stupid story and the contraption that couldn't lift. anything and this kid is saying repeatedly it was it was

a lie. so i think we learned something. if this if we really put our minds to it we all can be connected. i want to it's interesting in front of me. clearly of elle magazine wrote in his piece balloon boy predicted the entire trash fired world we're currently living in a great title for an article. that basically you could see it was it was as the start of an ongoing operating failure to react skeptically and proportionally to what turns up on our personal screens it was big news before we have the phrase a literal object lesson the calm during a by burroughs by unchecked in influence i have to ask you do you right away do you remember where you were when when this story broke and do you agree with the premise that this was truly arbiter of things to come that this was a sign of what we deal with today on a day when there was like the dare i say the kennedy assassination but it was a series of hours and i and i was walking out into the street with cars honking and

i was saying but i don't think he could actually float from fort collins to but here's my question for you chicken or the egg is it the media is it their fault did the media create this did we feed it back to the media who was responsible i mean are we a clapping the stones or the stones playing for us do we encourage it i don't know but notice how these people now say well we're looking back at this had mr whose it's been there at the time he would have been a part and parcel of it but there was something to use the old crowd theory this is a goosed of the bone you know this this idea that we were all like murmuring of starlings in schools of fish we were psychically connected and by verge. 2 of you going back into the thread happened there we lived there you were and you not even

embarrassed that a woman of your mental acumen your degree of mentation brobdingnagian mange intellect self or a book you've let me. know so i saw that i was like oh. well you have to put that on television because i fell 400 percent at least for a little bit and then you see me like an hour later i'm going to tell you something i learned so much missing the point i think it tells it's ok it's a false alarm but but deep within the recesses in the of the bowels of this event there's something good we cared we were communal yeah it was harmless but if we want to pay attention we all could do it it can be done because i mean that was it you know when you heard you know shepard smith say 6 year old child i want to point out this though it would have been around the same time within a few months actually of the very famous kanye. man the video music awards taylor swift which became like sort of the beginning some say of our modern like me moment something happens and we repeat it we use it to put on things. is is

this sort of like going after this there's a tragedy there's a plane missing mare's whatever and that these moments when the media seems to just become we all seem to just become engrossed and we can't stop is this just sort of our newest version of if it bleeds it leads from like the poster and her it stays like we haven't really of all that much so. i mean there's an entire channel devoted to murder so i mean listen why didn't i. watch all i want to scalp oh yes i got oh yes somebody this is what this is what i think we love to analyze things i call of the back iranian cheese effect meaning that we just like maggie when he is white i don't know we just do this was in the vent and people said well it was interesting but you talk about it i talk about the worst thing is i don't want to be let out let out of the loop and i also would be the 1st

person to post on my facebook because i would say i posted it 1st because i claimed it i wrote the story i was there 1st it's like to me i'm still trying to get over the notion of janet jackson's wardrobe malfunction you had to have the the the visual acuity of a fighter pilot to even notice and people who are going back into the left so i remember that my whole life when i look back is going to be one stringed event of nothing. you have another adult life of the point of exhaustion and and discuss here's what's interesting too about all of this talk about the rise of the kind of what was the thing is that the enemy family appeared on the show wife swap like twice before this whole event and according to stick around it according to the police and court records the bloomberg has perpetrated in order to get you to family some publicity on their own you know men get their own reality show and they're good and they're heavy metal group because they deserve yes right don't forget that yes yes and it also 2007 was the kim kardashian sex tape that the

real was real but then i say oh. a reality show out of it you know it's real life script to grab eyes and sanitize for our enjoyment can we turn this around of these people kind of just like i'm going to concoct a story or i'm going to do something outlandish just so i can suddenly how can you show because somewhere along the line we went from editorial to news and we obscure to remove that barrier fame and infamy are exactly there's a 2 sides of the same coin the whole paradigm is gone it doesn't matter there were the old expression as long as they spell my name right well as long as they just let me do this but stormy daniels of a not a good p.p. people who basically do nothing and kim carr dashon who dare i say is kind of like you know they always say the defendant or the seinfeld was a show about nothing but dick van dyke was really the 1st and she was as well but what i'm saying is that we're learning more about us and you get to the point where

you get scared you know when you say we're really not well we're mapping the genome we're traveling around the universe we've got particle physics in spring theory but yet something as stupid it's this not only but 10 years later we bring it back to. analyze it and i love it and you rule my day because i've been fixing it yes thank you so that is not about impeachment. thank you so much for coming online unless the discussion about the news media and all of our foibles thank you so much for thank you. the real me the fake me they the freeze dried meat and spaceship they at the bio printed me on the space station that's right the very 1st lab grown meat developed by a left farms was successfully created in the russian section of the international space station this september without gravity the process which is a suspicious specially designed 3 d. printer is actually easier and faster allowing yours to print from all sides all at once it works by recreating the process of muscle tissue regeneration that happen.

naturally and doubt this could be crucial to a long term space travel which would have making which would make having protein sources like me possible without thousands of gallons of water on a cargo hold full of cattle of course this new creation isn't just for the spacefaring folks but could prove increasingly help on earth climates and tastes change i say where do i sign up for a steak printer. that would be good with the state of the real desperation of the staying right here lou i wonder how it turned professional. and what was passing through the fact that it made it made this may be easier in space because of the 0 g.'s that when that one really captivated me when i wouldn't talk about this article it was like whoa wait a minute because the gravity here the cell was cat like combined incredible stuff yeah i do want to thank you forgot is that there is having a protein source for a long term space travel or long term many travel even in the arctic and other

places where we are as humans is is something we have to think about and like you said it's it's it's fun when it's in a side by show that there is a cargo hole full of cows but in real life much harder and if we could figure out ways to do this in a way that doesn't use up all that water all of the you know think of all the damage the environment but like you know in the cattle industry brings the things like being able to kind of move away from that is that i think are good that futuristic printers like this are right that is our show for today remember everyone in this world we are not told that we are loved enough so i tell you all i love i am tyrrel than dirt and capitalists keep on watching all those folks out there are great things.

your government and our government and all the other major governments of the world know what's going to happen and when it's going to go but they haven't told you and they haven't told me they haven't announced. imagine something as big as the earth . is going to cause tidal waves or earthquakes volcanoes erupt and it's going to chill. so very for a while right. my great grandfather's. nobody would care about the law or prison so you'd have wallace this should have. a terrible

life between now and the. so what we've got to do is. that we have. an arms race in. dramatic development only.

because. he's much of a small college student goes on a shooting rampage and russia's. president . has apparently.
