served in the obama and ministration from 2013 to 2017 and harvard kennedy school ,nd the diplomacy project joining us to talk about voter machines and security. groupe affiliated with a putting out a report on this topic. what is your group? what is your involvement in it? caller: it is a long-standing collection of about 25,000 of the country's and world's best hackers, so this is the center of the hacker community. every year, they hold a big convention. 25,000 people come. our connection with that is that this year, they featured a special event, and it was an event that challenged the best of the hacker community to see if they can penetrate some of the voting machines that are still used around the country. host: electronic voting machines? guest: electronic voting machines that are connected to the internet or somehow linked to the internet in a way that introduces one or ability -- that introduces vulnerabilities. host: they are getting hackers to hack in. how successful where they? guest: on billing records, they hacked within 90 minutes of being in the same space as voting machine

the obama and ministration pass this law, which says everyone must have the one-size-fits-all -- the obama administration passed this law, which says everyone must have the one-size-fits-all. people buy what they want. let them buy more affordable coverage if that is what they can afford. let subsidize people with on-existing conditions general revenues instead of imposing the entire burden on you, the healthy consumer who happens to be on the individual market. you see premiums come down when it happens. host: is the affordable care act marketplace in a spiral? guest: yes. for the reason you just heard, our caller explain. fewer and fewer people deem this affordable insurance. aree with healthy lives going to start to leave the affordable care act. the enrollment is far below what the congressional budget office predicted it would be. leaving behind only those who are too sick to be a out of obamacare. it will increase the cost per subscriber. ultimately, the cost to consumers who are still enrolling in the system. it is the definition of a death sprial. host: on the line for indepen

the bush administration, the obama ministration or this administration relative to the activity, it does seem to me the senate and house do support the -- mys that are underway >> thank you very much. -- i want to mention dustin who was one of the four troops who lost his life. i want to thank you when i was whosethis lady came up son is in the united states army, so we are seeing she talks about how proud she was in the leadership we have in this country so i want to thank you from the bottom of my heart but also tell you what the streets are telling me. the senator and i go way back. we saw some of the horrible things happening and i appreciate on one hand what senator cowan said. i think that underscores the reason he can't write restrictions or be invitetive where you tools of the use or anything like that and do so without risking the life of your own troops. . was in the military it was a long time ago. we had muskets accident. limitations on the to serve and what you do. when we are writing an amuf to restrict our soldiers, we are potentially affecting the rules of engagement they

to officially assign the proposal to undo the obama era and the clean powerplant from the obama and ministration was sort of the obama landmark rule and would cut carbon dioxide emissions by about one third below 2005 levels by 2030 so we'll see today the signing of that rule,. >> after the signing does that mean it automatically gets pulled back or is there process. >> this is a very long process just like any federal rulemaking process. this will kickoff the comet. and people on both sides of the issue will be writing in to tell that they want to clean powerplant to stay in place or see it repealed entirely and meanwhile the trumpet epa has said it will be considering whether to replace the rule at all and some industry groups want to see a replacement rule and there is some conservative saying we wantt nothing but in its place so meanwhile the trumpet epa will be thinking about what to do with this role and whether to replace it. >> so the epa administrator specifically talk about the war on call and says it's over. what reaction her from the industryat? >> the coal industry is very excited t

republicans are talking about expanding that child tax credit previously president obama and democrats under his ministration had proposed something different called a child care tax credit and that's never become law big difference i know that you think sound very similar a child tax credit and child care tax credit child care tax credits can only be used for paid child care services and child tax credits go to any family that have children in the home so a child tax credit is better because it offers broader support to all families regardless of how they choose to care for their children and capability or with a nanny or with a stay at home parent or a family member so let's hope that. the child tax credit that's going to be one of the critical details that indicates how much lower and middle income families can save in this proposal do you see the g.o.p. able to push this push this through this week by the end of the week what do you think next monday what i have been talking about i am hopeful that they get some kind of starter package together negotiation process of course goes through both houses of co

message to the world and to the american people environmentalists slam the trumpet ministration for scrapping an obama iraq change law. how there is still a strong line of cloud and rain that stretches from china through the korean peninsula every hour again sinking down into japan that is it and it's got a brother if you like or rather weaker affair in much milder wintry weather now in the northeast of china plus two number still thirteen insupportable look how close the snow is just got a jump across the water to get to is this a porous looking rather went on both days cloudy and certain increasingly cloudy in hong shoot the ball tom you get to friday the sun is back out in seoul and pyongyang and indeed in beijing at nineteen degrees that rain strings out across the middle of china there's no also shanghai develops as it goes to the south that you can do but in sichuan then south of that is still dry and it's still true in hong kong sunny looking weather and relatively low humidity as well and on the coast of vietnam there just a few light shows not as big downpours we've been used to just recently

for eight years during the obama administration and finally after the obama administration was pleased with the trumpet ministration they thought that things changed this is that's why we saw the riyadh summit and the trump supporting of saudi leadership in the region. and when the crisis the gulf crisis happened saudi arabia was very frustrated again the not receive the support that i was expecting to receive from washington d.c. where the split in the american position between the establishment the office this actually weaken the saudi position not strengthen the position in the gulf closers and that's again russia and they've given these circumstances emerged as the party that goes all the way in supporting their allies and their autocratic regimes in the region and that contributed to the frustration of the relationship with a worse lawrence korb what about the optics of all of this you see that the saudi king traveling to moscow for the first time just months after president trump flew to riyadh earlier this year of course and lavish praise on his saudi hosts. well i think the president drove us to recognize w

inertia without a whole lot of examination but it really does seem that the trumpet ministration is just following what the obama administration did with scattering troops across the globe and hitting these hot spots what do you think exactly right and then to add to this be honest the obama administration was simply following the george w. bush administration's president on this is well that we have this global war on well whoever they are this week whether it's diane or al qaida or some spinoff from al qaeda and where is the strategy i don't see the strategy and i don't think there is one coming out of this administration either jim jatra it's always a pleasure thank you sir thanks for being with a few nights white house chief of staff general john kelly took to the podium at the white house presser today the general address congresswoman frederica wilson is comments about president trump disrespecting the family of a soldier recently killed in the attack we were just talking about in one's year kelly expressed his outrage at the congresswoman while visibly restraining is a motions we were stunned stunned that

now undercuts its own treaty that that was signed by the through the obama administration if it's undercut by the trumpet ministration why should the north koreans believe anything that the united states ever signs. so it's very dangerous what president trump is contemplating doing and we urge his advisors to please tell president trump it's in the safety and security of the world that this treaty go ahead and that he certify that indeed iran has complied with the conditions of the treaty what do you think the outcome is going to be do you think that iran will move forward with this certifying the iran deal well i'm always hopeful but if not he's going to get an earful from all of the constituents and the members of congress who have sixty days after that to determine whether or not a decertification should stay and i'll tell you what they're going to be millions and millions of americans that are going to be calling their congress people to say do not do not agree with that these sort of occasion because it is a horrible danger to the world all right thank you so much over and over right now it was retired u.s. army

less of a headache than round up and later in the show we'll take a look at obama era clean water rules as the trump of ministration aims to with you although what could this mean for the twenty million acres of the wetlands and the two million miles of strains protected under these rules will find out don't go anywhere america's war starts right now. so. much. aggro chemical giant monsanto has been having a very bad years say the least but there's no need to feel. sorry for the company all their problems have been caused by their own greed their own arrogance and their own negligence the year started off with lawsuits being filed against monsanto for covering up the dangers associated with their blockbuster weed killer roundup scientific studies have linked round up to various forms of cancer or neurological disorders and respiratory disease based on what we've seen from the company's own documents monsanto absolutely understood the dangers of roundup but they continued to downplay the risk in order to sell their product by the barrel to farmers and ordinary consumers around the world but now that the heat is up o

ministration. ?hat are your main concerns >> we sued the executive branch four times, when president obama was headingt. 2017, we are continuing the debate that were started in the last of ministration around national security and privacy. the protection of customers. certainly immigration is a bigger issue this year. we step forward in the wake of the travel ban. we step forward again in the context of daca. we believe we need a immigration system that is in for -- in, but we need to recognize that we absolutely benefits. all of us in this country. doesn't matter what we do. we all benefit when some of the best and brightest in the world work by our side. emily: are you worried about retaliation or blowback? >> the good news from our perspective is if we are principled, we never make things personal. for the up strongly daca. our view is simple. we will partner wherever we can and stand apart whenever we should. >> i have nothing to add. he said it perfectly. this is a really important issue 's action the principal. you see it in all their actions. google, twitter being called convicts for paying for

doubling down on climate change denial and the trumpet ministrations says it's an obama era drive to limit emissions from coal fired power plants. to some of those. to become the smallest nation ever to qualify for the fee for world cup all of that story and more later this news. turkey's president has described the u.s. decision to suspend most visa services for turkish citizens as upsetting the freezes in response to the arrest of u.s. consulate employees in istanbul accused of links to last year's failed coup immediately imposed tit for tat measure suspending its own visa services in the us . reports from washington d.c. . after the arrest of a worker at the u.s. embassy in ankara and a warrant issued for another the us took the unusual step of saying they would stop issuing visas for some turkish nationals traveling to america the first explanation was posted by the u.s. ambassador to turkey on twitter we don't know if these arrests are singular events or if we should expect other turkish staff members to be arrested turkey quickly followed suit with similar measures but presiden

the trouble ministration is taking aim at yet another obama climate change and i should have the head of the environmental protection agency says limiting pollution from power plants are to be scrapped. reports plans are already underway to force officials to overturn the decision. calling an end to the war on coal scott pruitt administrator of the u.s. environmental protection agency says he'll issue new rules to repeal the clean power plants that paris climate according to the move comes just months after president donald trump announced the u.s. will pull out of the paris climate accord during a visit to the big coal mining state of kentucky on monday pruitt's the rule was really about picking winners and losers regulatory power should not be used by regulatory bodies to pick winners and losers environmental groups argue the plan is about saving lives the estimates were that it would save three thousand six hundred premature deaths tens of thousands of asthma attacks in our kids hundreds of thousands of job hours they're lost every year because people are getting out of attacks and

ministration. i wouldn't say that yes i mean the one thing that strikes me so far has been continuity with previous policies i mean throughout the obama administration in the senate congress and the ministration there was constant criticism of pakistan seen as. same time groups in pakistan were fighting terrorists domestically and providing some support to call it an operation in afghanistan including logistical support in particular there are also groups within pakistan which are aiding the taliban killing americans through proxies and so on and so there wasn't anything actually new in the hearing and from what we've heard before and the administration's strategy so far is sort of the same still the same combination of what we've seen constantly and regarding pakistan i took this more as a warning and i think the pakistanis are clearly worried about some of trump's rhetoric about fighting terrorism more vigorously lack a lack of support from some countries how that could hurt them. and so i think that i took this more as a warning right that there might be changes but not yet a change so when they say it won't be business as usual wi

fall because they haven't done as much as they could with you bombing ministration initiatives and much of this rests with the obama administration didn't do more when it could. buy for so for the u.s. companies for u.s. travelers thus far it seems to be somewhat like the one nine hundred twenty s. with prohibition the u.s. government is saying don't go the u.s. government is saying you need to be scared and thus far the companies there in the marketplace are saying we're going to continue to be they are right and stragglers are saying we're going to continue to go there right one of the things too is that as you point out this seems to be a lot of posturing. president trumps new economic sanctions were they actually a surprise to you or now. no not not really you know this has been a a trajectory it's you know been a series of moments since january twentieth the trump administration in the president's announcement in june and then the treasury department of commerce department statements and media liao. do that were less than the u.s. business community feared. they were inconvenient there are you know there is so

has been saying this from the beginning the obama administration has said it the trunk ministration has said this is a more pointed way of saying it but it's the same message we've heard for the last year so how would you characterize relations between the u.s. and turkey before this extended thing that's been simmering for so long you know i think that this is been a long time coming i think they're used the right word it's been simmering explode and i think it caught everyone by surprise because it was a very technical issue that was announced on twitter in terms of these as being suspended the church responded in kind literally verbatim with the same these ascension this is a first time is to nato allies have not been able to visit each other people the people exchanges they're trying to dress it up to say well it's visas it's not that big a deal but this is a big deal and i think they want to resolve it both sides are you conscious this quickly as possible so what are those interests what's at stake if this doesn't tamp down. i mean these are two nato allies things from syria to cyp

about thirty five percent of the time this year in the trumpet ministration announced it was rolling back restrictions put in place by the obama administration on the ten thirty three program though a report from the g.a.o. already found the limits had largely been ineffective to begin with and we will save taxpayer money in the process there's not a dollar to waste and we're not going to waste we're not going to allow a quick no longer needed to be sitting idle when you could be using it meaning this trend of police militarization is only going to continue. thank you anya i'm joe.

about thirty five percent of the time this year the trumpet ministration announced it was rolling back restrictions put in place by the obama administration on the ten thirty three program though a report from the g.a.o. already found the limits had largely been ineffective to begin with and we will save taxpayer money in the process there's not a dollar to waste and we're not going to waste when i got all out a quick money no longer needed to be sitting idle when you could be using it meaning this trend of police militarization is only going to continue. thank you anya i'm joined today by alex the tali he is a professor of sociology at brooklyn college and the author of the end of policing he's a senior advisor to the police reform organizing project and serves on the new york state advisory committee to the u.s. civil rights commission. so let's talk about. what we're seeing now during the trumpet ministration. with ten thirty three what what they're doing to the police force i think if you if you look at the rollback of the restrictions on military transfers the pardoning of our a pious of this ramping up of the war on d

more aggressive but it's also been very critical of the trumpet ministrations and trump has yielded authority to the generals in a way that obama never did obama micro-manage they were very frustrated with him trump seems to have taken the constraints off of the military and allowing an even more aggressive drone policy and more more and more room for the military to operate in all of these countries so i think we're going to see more of the kinds of things that we saw in the share on october fourth happening elsewhere as trump leaves lessons the constraints on the military and its operations these senate just passed a seven hundred billion dollar defense budget. that was actually significantly more than even trump asked for yet so not only are are we not cutting back on these operations we're going to be expanding these operations and opening up new areas. one of the reasons why we were uneasy air is we're building a one hundred million dollar drone base in dess so we're expanding operations you know michael what one of the interesting ironies of all this is the u.s. . militarized is the african continent what are the chinese

ministration is taking aim at yet another obama era climate change initiative and the environmental protection agency says rules limiting pollution from power plants are to be scrapped as an esterbrook reports plans are already under way for a long court battle to force officials to back down. calling an end to the war on coal scott pruitt administrator of the u.s. environmental protection agency says he'll issue new rules to repeal the clean power plants in the parish climate according to the move comes just months after president donald trump announced the u.s. will pull out of the paris climate accord during a visit to the big coal mining state of kentucky on monday pruitt's the rule was really about picking winners and losers regulatory power should not be used by regulatory bodies to pick winners and losers environmental groups argue the plan is about saving lives the estimates were that it would save three thousand six hundred premature deaths tens of thousands of asthma attacks in our kids hundreds of thousands of job hours they're lost every year because people are getting out of attac

out is they say the turkish have asked even under president obama for for too little on the cleric to be returned to turkey the ballot ministration said there wasn't enough evidence that he was involved in the coup which he denies and so they wouldn't send him back the trip administration says they are looking at it they are looking at evidence but the idea they've that's been floated of a prisoner swap they said that's not something the u.s. is even remotely interested in so what about the visa restrictions themselves any indication as to how long they might be in place for. no there's absolutely no indication again the biggest question is ok what's next we've seen things like the turkish president came here those peaceful protesters were beaten by those security guards garrity guards were indicted so the u.s. responds by cutting off any sort of weapons sales that were in the pipeline a small arms weapons that were supposed to go to the security forces so we see this continuing to happen over the last two years the u.s. takes a step turkey responds u.s. turkey responds it's become a pattern so it's not at all clear that this is

when you strip away the ones that congress required the ministration to do, there is a myth that regulatory activity under obama was a marked departure from the historical norm is nonsense. trump does not have some big rules thatock of this of ministration can just go away. sweet -- sweep their operating on well curated rules on the books, and once they get rid of the ones they do not like, they're going to have a harder time than they think sweeping away the stock. i agree. the reddick -- the rhetoric is deregulatory. more than we have seen in decades. i also agree there will be interests that make it hard to remove regulations once they are on the book. there are funny stories about companies that were the most this of risk opponents of regulations, and was the theyation was in place, were the most the suppress opponent of removing that regulation. if we look at the evidence other countries, which this paper does illustrate there is some low hanging fruit. you can always modify regulations so they are easier to comply with, less redundant, so again, i'm hoping for the best case scenario that the paper present

majority countries are not even on their these are obama era strategic security identify countries and so the beat goes on but you know the ministration and skin to continue to try to work those issues out there is no way miller dawn jones thank you so much for your wanting us tonight new allegation. as they give a former film producer harvey weinstein actress argento's says that she was raped by weinstein in one thousand nine hundred seven she was twenty one years old at the time as of now thirteen women accused weinstein of harassment or sexual assault three have said that the former producer raped them the board of one instance former company is meeting tomorrow to officially change the name weinstein was a major donor to democratic politicians including president obama hillary clinton the new york senator chuck schumer who have all condemned his actions wildfires continue to rage across northern california thousands have evacuated as firefighters continue to battle fires in eight different counties reza donald trump declared the situation a major disaster in ordered federal aid to the area for more on this we turn to our t. corres

most henri's to bring you this hour trying to ministration takes its first steps towards repealing the president obama's clean power plan why deep seated inequality still exist in u.k. society today. and in sport argentina face the prospect of missing out on their first well cup since nine hundred seventy. hello there is still wet and windy for many of us in the northern half of europe you can see from the satellite picture we have a very mobile picture old the rain spreading from the atlantic and gradually tracking its way eastwards and it's giving us some rather heavy downpours and dragging in some far fresher air but in the south is still rather warm we're looking at around nineteen in bucharest there and forced down in madrid we're up at twenty eight and that woman weather does push a little bit further north woods there as we head into thursday so that means forcing vienna there should be more in the way of woman weather will be up at twenty two and bucharest will be up it's twenty one still low for the northern part of the still going to be that rather blustery role that damp weather to contend wi

agency that the trauma ministrations sees as anti easer oh but i actually feel and this is very important to stress these are not only critics it was a the obama administration that said it had to cut funds because u.s. law from the ninety's does not allow the u.s. funding for any u.s. agencies recognizing palestine as a state and that is why six years ago the united states cut off more than eighty million u.s. dollars a year this is a lot of money for this organization we're talking about twenty two percent of its entire budget but it is also quite important to stress that even though the u.s. stopped funding the unesco they still owe the agency around a five hundred million dollars and that is probably also one of the main reasons for secretary of state rex tillerson who wants to stop these payments. you know what we have had the reaction from the unesco director general irina bokova she has expressed profound regrets of the decision after receiving official notification she says by the united states secretary of state mr rex tillerson as that unesco director general i wish to express profound regret at this decision of the us to withdraw fr

for eight years during the obama administration and finally after the obama administration was pleased with the trumpet ministration they thought that things changed this is that's why we saw the riyadh summit and the trump supporting of saudi leadership in the region. and when the crisis the gulf crisis happened saudi arabia was very frustrated again the not receive the support that i was expecting to receive from washington d.c. where the split in the american position between the establishment and the office this actually weaken the saudi position not strengthen the position in the gulf closers and that's again russia and they've given these circumstances image's as the party that goes all the way in supporting their allies and their autocratic regimes in the region and that contributed to the frustration of the relationship with a worse lawrence korb what about the optics of all of this you see that the saudi king traveling to moscow for the first time just months after president trump flew to riyadh earlier this year of course and lavish praise on his saudi hosts. well i think president drove us to recognize w

about the trumpet ministrations approach to afghanistan and how it differs from the obama administration's approach and whether whether the trump approach to afghanistan is going to work well in that is the big question trying to. do everything different than obama what he's done in afghanistan is loosen up the restrictions a lot of people in the military before would tell you they felt micromanagement of the obama administration basically commanders in the field have more authority to launch air strikes to worry less about civilian casualties to put it that way but added four thousand troops asking nato for more troops so this is not a dramatic change we didn't see the obama administration put a great deal of emphasis on diplomacy having the negotiated settlement with the taliban and it's no different in this administration the only difference is the state department has been gutted of most of its senior leadership including the person who was responsible for the afghanistan pakistan strategy so it's not clear that diplomacy high up there on the list they're not talking even about a milit

than by half the numbers that mr obama promised in the united states has always begun back and forth from these matters but lever to the degree that the trumpet ministration. has brought in terms of the numbers so clearly we have a new situation in washington well i cannot tell you and i think whoever says that they have a good idea they're probably lying to themselves is well what mr trump is doing this year is going to be what mr trump is going to do next year well i guess that's the only silver lining that i see are people siding but the change has been not only to the numbers but also to the vocabulary are they the language that the administration is using to describe the problem and you know better than i did that they trumpet musicians started to refer every fur to be isolation of. refugees seekers or asylum seekers as opposed to integration which is far more common term around the world do you read anything into this change of cabul or well we're going back to essentially republican principles in this regard. of the bush administration the second bush administration the conservatives used the world the same award a simulation all the time for them

have criticized the trumpet ministration for sending the wrong message on climate change it's taken its first step to repeal the clean power plant barack obama's landmark law and at reducing the use of fossil fuels john hendren reports. president donald trump struck another blow in what environmentalists call the war on climate control or as his environmental protection agency chief prefers to put it. in his previous job as oklahoma attorney general scott pruitt led more than two dozen states in challenging in court a signature climate control rule and acted by then president barack obama the environmental protection agency said we are committed to writing the wrongs of the obama administration by cleaning the regulatory slate here as the news angered environmentalists it is a historic mistake as specially when this country is weakly suffering billions of dollars of economic impact from wildfires hurricanes sea level rise slowly happening over time this is just hugely irresponsible and they are sending be absolutely wrong message to the world and to the american people that they're willing to side with polluters over people's public health sci
