now it's thought many were seeking help or sanctuary following and strikes in the area barack obama's america first african american president has delivered the annual lecture and on the anti apartheid icon nelson mandela it's been a century since mandela was born it's evolvers first high profile speech since leaving office obama spoke of the universe appeal of mandela's message through sacrifice and unwavering leadership and perhaps most of all through his moral example mandela. and the movement he led would come to signify something larger came to embody the universal aspirations of this disaster people all around the world the hopes for a better life the possibility of a moral transformation in the conduct of human affairs u.s. president donald trump has arrived home to criticism after siding with russian president vladimir putin on accusations of election meddling speaking after the summit in finland trim cast doubt on his own intelligence agencies which showed evidence of interference in the u.k. based investigative agency has obtained documents revealing an expensive lobbying effort by

bush, and yes, barack obama. >> america wants a strong, peaceful, and prosperous russia. that's why i have called for a reset in relations for the united states and russia. this must be more than a fresh start between the kremlin and the white house, it must be sustained effort among the american and russian people to identify mutual interests and expand dialogue and cooperation that can pave the way to progress. >> laura: sounds pretty good. so, why is that thought now suddenly so subversive? because we have a republican president in the white house. by the way, republican president who is backing up the conciliatory talk, building bridges with tough sanctions, as well. the democrats have the midterms ahead of them. they are coming. barack obama and the democrats clearly fear that trump might succeed where they failed. that's "the angle." joining me now for reaction is glenn greenwald, cofounder of the intercept and a deep skeptic of the intel community. glenn, the hair on fire commentary by the former intel chief of today and yesterday is quite something. i want to play

all of this hysteria, the fact of the matter is trump hasn't done a thing to harm america with respect to russia and obamahing to protect america when it came to russia, the same attitude obama had when it came to the chinese in the south china sea. the north koreans as they are building their nukes, the iranians -- he gave them $150 billion and a wet kiss on the lips! the attacks on trump, this overwrought, hysterical, insane attack by the media, the democrats, some in the republican party and some phony conservatives -- you're allowed to question the president, just don't go nuts! >> sean: they can't help themselves. you can't see this without seeing it through the prism of 2018. they can't run on the economyse anymore, they're telling maxine and others to be quiet about impeaching, they want open borders, they want their crumbsb back, now they're desperate because the mueller investigation hasn't brought them what they wanted in 18 months.es but we have had russia collusion inasmuch as russian lies were paid for and disseminated to the american people about donald trump in a presidential election. they

obama. well, going to ask you, is the trump washington the new norm? is trump's americahe new norm or will we go back to an america that's more familiar to us? >> you know, i don't know. there are a lot of people on the right who were and i think it was more policy oriented than it was in terms of the national character or the national dialogue, but a lot of people found barack obama's america upsetting because they thought it represented the government and if not socialism more people on the federal etc. and the truth of the matter is that every president makes an imprint in this country on this country and it's difficult to go back to the country just keeps going in its own direction. is there going to be a course direction when it comes to lies? i don't know, maybe. i don't know. remember, this is the american experiment. is not done. it's a work in progress. we don't know how it ends, i mean, they're interviewing a different person in a different time could make an argument about how damaging president obama was to the notion of what americans expect their government

western's europe love affair with america died because president obama left office. many in western europe prefer weak not and a strong america. for example, remember obama's apology tour revered by the leaders in europe. >> america, like every other nation, has made mistakes and has its flaws. in america there is a failure to appreciate europe's leading role in the world. in. stead of celebrating your dynamic union and seeking to partner with you for common challenges, america has been air gants. -- arrogant. we have seen muslim majority countries elect a woman to lead. meanwhile the struggle for women's equality continuous in many aspects of american life. >> sean: the press picked up on europe's love affair for barack obama. one headline. obama wows berlin with historic speech. bret president obama goes abroads and the world is happier for it. let's go back to ronald reagan. like president trump reagan led the world with american exceptionalism and the concept of peace through strength. america did not love reagan. in london and west berlin reagan was jeered during

in terms of the national character in the national dialogue, but a lot of people found barack obama's america upsetting because they thought it represented the government and if not socialism, you know, more people on the federal role in the truth of the matter is every president makes infant in the country and it's difficult to go back because the country keeps going in its own direction. will there be a course correction when it comes to lives? i don't know, maybe. i don't know. this is the american experiment. it's not done it it's a work in progress and we don't know how it ends. i mean, you could interview a different person at a different time make an argument about how damaging president obama was to the notion of what americans expect government to for and how that actually means more long-term damage to the united states than anything else because of the amount of money we pay the interest on the debt not to mention the debt. they up their imprint on it one way or another and you know, you talk about i came down during the clinton years and there's a lot of stuff that happened during

america's closest supporters. neither is fully true. president obama routinely asked for increased defense spending from nato's allies. trump's loud charge that germany has become too dependent on russian natural gas does have considerable merit. the germans signed up for an energy relationship with russia that is strategically dangerous. it's not so much that by importing large amounts of natural gas from russia, berlin can be blackmailed. the russians are equally dependent on german cash. but the new pipelines being built could allow russia to threaten eastern european countries by withholding energy supplies and jacking up prices. and moscow has used and abused this energy card in the past. but again, trump's complaint was often voiced by the obama administration. and in neither of these cases is there any indication that donald trump's crude and aggressive

that happened under obama's watch, that's 20% of america's uranium. the interference and meddling in the 2016 election, that happened under obama. crimea happened under obama, the syria redline was crossed also under obama. how can the media didn't care about any of this? speak up because they suffer from selective sovereignty syndrome. they only care about foreign meddling and foreign conflicts when there's a president with a r by his name, especially when that r comes in the name trump. you can go all the way back to the clinton years, china gate, the dangerous national security implications of all of the campaign contributions that were coming in from shady characters all the way back then. who was it that was sounding the alarm about all of those scandals? it wasn't the new york slime and it wasn't the washington compote, they were too busy printing all of the condemnations from people blowing the whistle on it and referring to them as xenophobic and racist, which is what you talked about in your monologue. this is classic left-wing playbook of att

when everybody is spying on everybody let me remind everybody that it was the obama administration that was bugging go america's phones you know everybody both in the obama administration and i see him in the trump ministration is leaking confidential information for political effect so is that relieved. big of a deal well it's a that's a very good question and so a fair question to ask from a russian perspective because from a russian perspective it looks like americans meddle in other elections maybe even in russia elections but certainly in the case of ukraine i think president putin who believes that the americans participated in the overthrow of vienna coverage a democratically elected government and participated in the election of the government that's there now and there's some evidence for that so i think. that the unfortunately from the american perspective the idea of anybody meddling in our election is absolutely unacceptable even if we should do things similar to that in other elections and i think what would have been a good outcome which was not achieved and helpful he but what would have been a g

nato members to cough up more cash on top of that the top is increased america's military contributions can put president obama's money from nato, mark military resources from america and that is strengthening nato not weakening it. next, the elitists sent to drop is wrong to take angela merkel over task. the deal is real and really bad. , the first out so right here on the show months ago. why is the foreign policy establishment that about president trump pointing this out then about the substance of the ideal itself something that does undermine nato because they are blinded by their hatred of trump idiots. then there is brexit the president was attacked for criticizing teresa mays brexit and he said about her plan was true what resume said standing right next to the present was false. now they are up in arms that he called the eu a fellow but is a full on trade exactly as the president said not just for america but it keeps africa trapped in poverty from improving their economy in europe. we will have more on the eu brexit more on the show. finally, the latest favorite topic, russia. first, they were just abo

obama's watch! he was the president. like giving putin 20% of america's uranium. that wasgi on obama's watch. so the foundational material for nuclear weapons was given to putin and russia, the bad actor, the hostile regime, while obama was president. no one in the media mentioned this all week. now, you think you'll hear about this if you turn on conspiracy tv msnbc? fakey news cnn? i tend to doubt it today, president trump once again reiterated his commitment to countering putin. hete issued a very stern warnin. this is what we call peace through strength. judge for yourself. take a look. >> look at the sanctions i put on. look at the diplomats i threw out. look at all the things that i've done and no one else did what i've done. obama didn't do it obama was a patsy for russia. he was a total patsy. look at the statement he made when he thought the mics were turned off, ok? the stupid statement he made! nobody makes a big deal about that. getting along with president putin, getting along with russia is a positive, not a negative. now with that being said, if that doesn't work out, i'll be t

face he had on election night, he was like-- you know what is funny, it is funny how in america people credited obama as a great daryns, right, because he was the first u.s. president with rhythm, right? but in africa, all the presidents can dance. so when o bma dnses in africa people are like hey, barack, your white side is showing, huh? what's happening here. because look, obama is not a great dancer. he is a good dancer but not a great dancer. i know you might be saying who are you to judge obama's dance moves, trevor. well, i will tell you who i am. i am the return up of the 20123 see-- 2012 season of dancing with the stars south africa. (applause) that's right! that's right! but obama in south africa, used the occasion to give a speech on the state of the world. and of course whenever obama talks about current events these days, there is an elephant in the room. which is fine, is he a south african citizen and he had every right to be there but i teurlly meant the other elephant in the room, donald trump. while obama never called trump out by name his subtweeting was sharp. >> we see the utter l

as we see organizing for america and obama getting involved in these races in 18 and in 20, when we're to see is a more look to the left and that will frustrate the base of what happened to bernie sanders in 2016. so the party has to come together and heal wounds before creating further friction here, this will cause friction moving forward, this will not be a winning issue in some of these very, very key races. if democrats do want to win in 2018, i don't think that this is the leg that they want to stand on to do that. >> neil: it was a year ago that most democrats in the house wanted to beef up support in financing for ice, the way it exists now. the only thing that has changed is this controversial issue hoff separating kids from their parents. but barring that, which has been corrected, not enough many critics say to satisfy critics, but it's certainly a whole different mindset from when everyone was on the same page. >> for sure. ice i think for the most part is doing a great job. they serve a necessary function and purpose. again, this is all on policy that people disagree with.
