the nasdaq was up by 65nd the s&p added 25. mike santoli takes a look now at whether the market is just returning to normal.te >> rep investors thrown off balance by swirling markets this year now face a new wrinkle, a sudden outbreak of normalcy. this year scks went fro an unprecedented uphill strength in january to a nasty stumble in february followed by months of confused struggle. in the past couple of weeks stocks have stabilized and covered to a seven-week high as a rush of strong earningsed prov support and stock investors have made a tentative peace w hh somewhather interest rates. this return to normalcy can be seen from a few different angles. the widely tracked s&p 500 volatility index closed wednesday at its lowest level nce january indicating stocks and stock traders are no longer particularly agitated or fearful. the market has also grown less sensitive to potentially unnerving headlines. when president trump exited the iran nuclear agreement and oil prices cssed $70 a barrel, the major indexes paused briefly and

we're adding over 10,000 people.d behavior. we have a huge responsibility to over 2 billion people, and i think it's a real understanding of that responsibility. and a commitment of resources. >> can you ever really control the privacy, though? that's what i wonder. can you ever really do that? >> one of the things we're very focused on is giving consumers full control over their experience on facebook. as a matter of fact, in europe today, there is a new data law that rolled out called gdpr, general data protection regulation. and what it essentially is doing, and we're rolling it out here in the united states and around the world is giving consumers full control over their experience. you can tell us whether or not you want ads to be targeted. you can dodger whether you want us to use facial recognition. and you can -- >> you said facebook is vol attorney general putting in place gdpr here in the united states? >> yes. we're calling it the global privacy experience because gdpr isn't really relevant for people in t

one ad said that immigrants are proved to deserve to stay in the ad. a pro black lives matter. best context. lawmakers put this information out there so we can see it and hopefully do a much better job of guarding ourselves the next time around if there's a next time around. >> shepard: thanks, trace. there's word president trump's personal attorney and fixer michael cohen used his relationship with the president during sales pitches to potential clients. that's according to the reporting of "the washington post" newspaper. it reports cohen would brag about his relationship with the president after the 2016 election. cohen would show people pictures of himself and president trump and talk about how they were still in close contact. if you want access, i have access, you have to pay. this is worth learning that cohen got hundreds of thousands from big companies, including one with ties to a russian billionaire. execs at the firm said they hired michael cohen for investment advice. prosecutors say cohen is under investigation for his dealings. these companies paid to the same llc

these ads are incredible.owould be russia sent money get on facebook and go to rallies and they would spend money to go to anti-trump rallies. they really just wanted to make sure people in the u.s. were fighting. that it happened on facebook, today's stock will not show it, it is something already incredibly, you know, it has been incredibly impactful for the company. >> return to anna now because on react toill, as they the true that we see published [laughter] -- published, has -- to theink this will add calls we have already seen with mark zuckerberg. it is a different way that republicans and democrats in the cell -- second house have reacted. it has been a bipartisan effort to what went wrong and try to address that so it doesn't happen in future elections especially with midterms in november. on the house side, republicans already came out and said there is no evidence of collusion and these ads do not show evidence of collusion. they do not show any from the trump campaign. scaringshow a lot of voters

they look a lot like the ads you see on facebook. but look more closely, this one is against immigration. this one is about police violence. they and thousands of others were put on facebook by russian groups who bought the ads with rubles to try to sway voters. >> now we have some concrete examples to refer to. and i think it makes it seem more real. >> reporter: released by the house intelligence committee, the ads cover both sides of the political spectrum, trying to guess how you'd vote by how you'd post. >> what we're really looking at is targeted advertising, and we've been doing targeted advertising since the sears roebuck catalog. >> reporter: but they don't awheshow where they're from. in some cases making up groups that don't exist. in the end it's about brand and awareness. >> reporter: now that we've seen them, facebook says they'll make changes. >> it also puts pressure on facebook and other social media companies to really come up with better solutions to prevent this kind of thing in the future. we are months away from

more harsh words at home as donald trump announces he wants to strike a new agreement with tehran adding that it would be better for that country i hope to be able to make a deal with them a good deal a fair deal a good deal for them better for them better for them but we cannot allow them to have nuclear weapons president chimes dangerous action makes iran's nuclear program now more likely to be resumed president trump has strengthened the hardliners in iran and iran may go back to pursuit of highly enriched uranium and ultimately a nuclear weapon and now are off to an arms race in the most volatile part of the world on tuesday donald trump officially announced washington was dumping the iran nuclear deal struck by the obama administration has long been describing the agreement as one of the worst deals ever made america says it didn't cover iran's ballistic missile program nor its perceived my lai and activities in the region so now washington is putting the screws on companies doing business with tehran as daniel bushell investigates. the sanctions back iran probably doesn't care much

i think if you look at the ads running so far in the midterm, the off-year elections, the ads run by democrats like jon tester or joe donnelly, they have been doing that. they are not talking about what is happening in d.c. we have seen this in real time. going back to alabama 75% of our , advertising in alabama was actually positive. it wasn't talking about the accusations against mueller. it wasn't talking about donald it was actually talking about our candidate and the desire for people to reclaim power by voting. i think it is going to be a balance but when you get on the ground you find candidates are pretty consistent on the issues. michael: when donald trump holds his next rally, he will say i am cutting regulations and i lowered your taxes and i'm fighting china. what is the economic response from the democratic party? that is what he is offering. what are democrats offering? guy: i think our focus is very simple. we want to give everybody a fair shot. we want to focus on raising jobs, andanding giving young people every opportunity they desire. when you look at the tax argum

us democrat rule makers have released thousands of social media ads with alleged links to russia in a bid to explain how the kremlin was supposedly seeking to sow discord in america during the twenty sixteen presidential election would have cast a critical eye over the commercials. here it is the panacea to all your doubts russian meddling exposed three thousand five hundred and nineteen ads on facebook posted by russia allegedly say us democrats the russian social media campaign was designed to further the broader criminal ject of sowing discord in the u.s. by inflaming passions on a range of divisive issues the point of view they say was to divide americans but you take a closer look and the real takeaway is russia really really sucks meddling take this ad for the african-american civil rights movement zero clicks zero impressions meaning no one ever saw it real poor interfering right there but next now here is a surprise a blue lives matter post black versus blue sea by a grand total of no one all right so far but how about this one an ad for muslims it says we believe in individua

after this morning we got a whole trove of new ads that were russian-backed facebook ads made public for the first time by the democrats in congress and there were the clearest demonstrations in russia's financial investment. 3200+.ere at pre-cambridge analytica highs. courtney: president trump will meet north korea's kim jong-il and june 12. the president tweeted both leaders will try to make it a very special moment for world peace. president trump has made the announcement hours after greeting three americans who had been freed from north korea. they were flown to joint base andrews out of washington. there has been a major -- israel says it struck most of iran's military facilities overnight. syrian tv showed video of the military trying to shoot down is really missiles. china is urging the u.s. to stop the threats about trade. the negotiators continue to talk and beijing still as opposed to the trump administration's plan to impose tariffs on chinese imports. leaders in italy have made progress toward forming the next government. the heads of antiestablishment five-star movement

digital ads are not going away. their still very effective of micro-targeting to a very specific universe of voters. that is a power tv is not capable of doing at this point. digital is not going anywhere. >> the way you can deal with that -- they can change what the creative is to deal with that skepticism. a group like priorities will buy an ad to get you to know something about a candidate but it will look like a priority sad, it will be a link to a news article. add, it will be a link to a news article. that is how it will be adjusted. we don't have a situation where people are no longer going to twitter or facebook or turning off phones. it is how to navigate the new skepticism. >> let's return to the economy. continues, the jobless rate continues to come along and favorable situations, will it impact november? >> i think guy's answer is right. even if the economy is doing well, 3% the, the stock market continues to go up, our people actually feeling it? are they getting raises, are they less worried about heal

ads alone and she had the least. political looked at it and what they found she had the least messaging on policy of any presidential campaign or ad in the last four races so she spent all the money but she didn't say anything about policy or any any actual issues and that's why people that's a credible because assuming stuff like this it's like ok so if i want to run as a democrat i principally just have to say that the d. triple c. you know the d.n.c. all that they're just basically tell me how to run my campaign and if they don't like my politics apparently as well as a democrat they might not even support my campaign and actually pushed me down to their like selective choice yet because you're then you become the dirty grassroots you know well down side they're sitting there going to give us pictures democrats doing things like that we wouldn't you actually are our organization that's the same thing but there's this idea that i think is traditional traditional concert these conservative democrats are the ones in

it's not about ads. it's what we want to share and whose job it is, whether it is a cultural, leadership, governmental response to that very human response to share things that are not necessarily nice for the world were good. senator kennedy: professor, at some point, you have got to trust people. >> we are going to go into a recess that will probably be less than 10 minutes or as fast as i can get to and from the capital. we will stand in recess for about 10 minutes. [gavel bangs] >> if i can have the committee come back to order? senators are interested in the second round. i have mainly now, because i have to preside, in 20 minutes, if we can keep the rounds to about three minutes, i would appreciate it. turn for about three minutes. we will start with senator whitehouse. senator whitehouse: thank you. i would like to go to the brexit campaign and the role that aggregate iq played in it. in the aftermath of that campaign, a person named dominic cummings, a campaign strategist for vote leave, tweeted

this is a project westbound two housing units would be added. we've shown good i get if a, we have conducted a geotechnical engineering soils report, conducted well engineered shoring and foundation plans. we've included in your board package a summary of over two years of outreach that we've had with the neighbors. it's unfortunate that even after all those numerous meetings, numerous changes and hearings, they remain opposed to this project. none of the appellants have proved any new information that prove this had the permits were issued erroneously or incorrect. we respectfully request that you deny the appeals and issue the permit so that work can begin -- or issue the permit so that work can begin. so i'm going to conclude my presentation with a slide show that i think you might find illuminating. this documents the numerous changed we've made to the project over the two years. it's kind of an interesting slide show. so i think this demonstrates a level that we have gone to address the concerns of our neighbors. our shoring engineer and i

but you take a closer look and the real takeaway is russia really really sucks meddling take this ad for the african-american civil rights movement zero clicks zero impressions meaning no one ever saw it real poor interfering right there but next now here is a surprise a blue lives matter post black versus blue sea by a grand total of no one all right so far but how about this one an ad for muslims it says we believe in individual liberty in the free market take heart liberty will prevail the cat g.'s it appears as if posted by a group defending the second amendment the right to bear arms and there are literally hundreds of such groups and facebook alone ok ok let's think something truly divisive to meek across a black doctor felt humiliated window to airlines flight attendants refused to believe that she was a qualified physician now that's allegedly intended to stir tensions to tear americans apart except that's exactly how it was reported in the us media is responding to a viral facebook post from an african-american doctor who says she was discriminated against on a flight she's.

ads because the consultants get a commission for selling ads and via ads so this whole awful like tail eating monstrosity we've got a couple of people off that give us off the record confirmation that one of the other things that's going around in the democratic party is that non-establishment that. i mean that if they go into run if they want any more any help any support from the d. triple c. they have to sign a pledge another pledge that says that they agree that they will spend seventy five percent of their campaign money on ads. which is funny because hillary's hillary clinton all because they figure it's the hillary clinton model it's the obama models but all this money the problem is hillary clinton spent seventy two million dollars on t.v. ads alone and she had the least political looked at it and what they found she had the least messaging on policy of any presidential campaign in the last four races so she spent all the money but she didn't say anything about policy or any any actual issues and that's why people that's a gravel because assuming stuff like this it's like ok so

why doesn't everyone have an ad blocker?have it because we are all frustrated and tired of seeing so many ads? jeff: it is becoming more popular. by one estimate, about 18% of u.s. internet users have some kind of ad blocker installed whether at the browser level or network level support. that number is higher in europe and in greece, as high as 39%. for most people, it seems it is just not top of mind that this setup requires a level of technical savvy that is higher entrance. jason: you alluded to this, we are at this moment where public opinion and public willingness to engage in this behavior has done a complete 180. people felt like it was wrong not to somehow enter into a commercial agreement and now people are really resisting it. what are the other implications if this does become more popular? jeff: it is in the era of sound on, pre-roll videos. people are more willing to block ads however they can and may have been in the past. while this isn't exactly an existential crisis for the advertising industry just yet, th

political ads go over here. and that you must have not only privacy rules in place, but some rules of the road when it comes to political ads. can you elaborate on that answer? mr. wylie: we do not allow our -- car companies and make unsafe cars and just put terms and conditions on the outside of that car. we require seatbelts in all cars because it's important for safety. and when you look at industries that are important, cars, food, medicine, nuclear power, airlines, we have rules that require safety and to put consumers first because it's very difficult for americans to get around if they do not have a car, therefore the car should be safe. it's very difficult for people to survive without food, therefore that food should be safe. in a 21st century, it's nearly impossible for people to become -- be functional in the workplace and society at large without the use of the internet. senator klobuchar: ok. mr. wylie: absolutely. if this is something that affects everybody everyday, then there should be some degre

now they are talking about ad transparenty.wing us to see all the ads an advertiser is running on facebook and zbraiting, creating labeling, updating the targeting. tackling fake news which we know they can do if they want to. security investments. they doubled those working on safety and security from 10,000 last year to more than 20,000 this year. collaborating with tech and security companies to try to figure things out. the bottom line is facebook is truly committed iffer this not lying about all the things i just put on the screen that they are going to do -- we will take them for the moment at their word, how does it affect the 2018 midterm elections. >> it put it simply, this is a really important set of first steps that they are taking. will it be enough? that remains to be seen. i mean a few weeks ago and and i talked about deep fakes, this notion that you can create videos that appear to be something they are not. the technologies are evolving so rapidly. in silicon valley the culture was such that we didn't think abo

but yes, we see this a lot where railings are added after the fact. that is not shown on this roof plan, that's correct. >>> which would mean that we would basically call this house as a non-walkable roof. we would call it out as not being a roof deck. there's a big distinction. i would really like to avoid that all of a sudden it would be a full roof deck at some point and we did not catch that. as a condition of approval, should we go to support this project, and i'm not saying anything to lead to that particular assumption, we would definitely restrict the roof being used as a roof deck. i'm still troubled by the upper unit being substantially increased and nothing else happening in the building. i'm curious to hear other commissioners speak to this. >>> commissioner melgar? >>> i would like to hear what is troubling you. i'm looking at the plans and i really don't see anything outside of the ordinary other than they want more space. >>> we weren't available at quick notice. while i support the ownership, this particular neighborhood is now to be o

adding any individual question is a big change. adding this question is a behemoth. as you have heard before, the 2020 dress rehearsal is a final run to iron out the details and that is currently underway. you have heard that more testing on that is still necessary and those tiny changes are minimal in comparison to the giant question that has been introduced to the process that is not part of the test. there has not been enough time to make secretary ross is change part of the final rehearsal. the titanic was launched with more preparation and less hubris. the doj said they needed this change to enforce the voting rights act. my legal career has largely been about voting rights. if the only way to require this, i would be cheering the doj on. but it is simply not so. i sat in mr. gore's old chair before he did. and like him, i helped lead the civil rights division of the voting rights act. since this was passed every single person who sat in that chair has enforced this without a citizenship question in the count. i have written much more about why in my written tes

for example, a liberal ad got 50,000 views and an ad for a phony black activist group got 10,000.into facebook's news feed and were shared million more time. some lawmakers believe the russians might still be added, and facebook least a statement reading, "this will never be a solved problem because we are up against determined, creative, and well-funded adversaries, but we are making steady progress." facebook has implemented a number of oversight measures. in hindsight, some of the ads were dead giveaways. they were bought with rubles and used for english, for example, a pro-black lives matter ad read "your life matter, my life matter, black matters." back in february, special counsel robert mueller and i did 13 russian nationals for weighting and information more in the u.s., and interfering with the 2016 election. at the time, the indictments made big headlines, but the conventional wisdom was that none of the russians would suddenly show up in court. yet here comes concorde management and consulting. that is a russian firm controlled by a man called putin's chef for his close

the law with regard to adding an adu in the rh 1 zone neighborhood states that an adu is added to an existing building. i gave you a handout in your brief, and i found another one that also says that. if this board denies the appeal, the building department due to no fault of its own will be compounding the error of the planning commission and the z.a. the dwelling at 653 28th street exists. it's a sound building. it's livable. the photographs show that. it's relatively affordable. it's not decrepit or disheveled. an adu in a an existing dwelling unit will also be relatively affordable. affordability is a rational for the adu in an rh 1. it is difficult to understand how an affordable adu can be added to a building that does not exist. and since i have a little time, i' i'll show you the other handout. it's in the ordinance. it's also existing. the handouts say existing. it's very clear. that's the current handout, and i'd like to add one more thing since i have a little time. i did a public records request for the accessory dwelling units that either had permits or had permits that

why weren't these added? i know you said it was on the american survey, but it wasn't on the specific, the census. why weren't any new steps taken? >> if they were taken, there is a statutory need. there was a legal and technical review. the fact we've been asking the question for many years, it was assumed that we did the cognitive testing. >> let me go back to the memo. you're saying we have tested all these questions. it's not going to have an impact. but one part of the memo, he basically says they don't know if the citizenship question is going to impact responsiveness. then you'll go to the end of the memo and it says to minimize any impact on this response rate, to place the citizenship question last on the census form. so it's like you're saying it will not have any impact, but everywhere in the memo, it says we don't know or if it is, we'll take steps that will minimize, right? and so that is why you see a lot of us that will be confused. so you're saying it will be a complete -- >> will you yield fo

this ad targeting had some effect. again, very hard to sort this out as technology changes from 2000, 2004, 2008, 2012, 2016. lots of things are new. one point we come back to in a presidential election, particularly when there is so much going on. the effect of one ad, robocall is zero. senator grassley senator whitehouse. senator whitehouse: you said cambridge analytica are effectively the same thing. and that cambridge analytica was the front company for the s.c.l. operations, is that correct? mr. wylie: yes. senator whitehouse: what is s.c.l. elections? mr. wylie: there is a group company in u.k., was, called s.c.l. group which had several different divisions. the largest division when i irst joined was defense. s.c.l. defense. elections, commercial, etc. they all handled different markets for the company. s.c.l. elections handled political. senator whitehouse: what are s.c.l. canada and aggregate i.q.? mr. wylie: those were subcontractors set up during the time i was there to build out software infrastructure. the

it's all for how many ads you can get on tv. i don't care what the ads say. they really do need to go back to the drawing boards and start over and make sure production is a big expense. >> they seem to think that harris is the person they need endorsing them. i have seen three in a row. >> she's endorsed 25 candidates. i think all 25 have an ad for her. it looks like she's wearing the same outfit in every ad. >> clearly reading the ad copy. >> not with a lot of sincerity. >> it's amazing. you really can be over exposed. i have never suffered that of course. but you can get over exposed. when you do, you have nothing to say. you really ought to be as original. if i endorse melissa, i would say listen, i am endorsing her but do you know why? it's not because of politics. it's her beautiful hair. >> you are on. ii will remember that. what's interesting is watching lieutenant governor candidates running as if they're running for president or something with a lot of power. they're giving platforms on gun control. >> for a job that doesn't do much. >> i read the o
