so essentially chris hedges filed suit with her attorneys and i approached chris have to because i was worried and i strategized over this i really wanted a judge to see the forest for the trees and sorry no pun intended on catherine the forest but that's that is the case this was very strategic i pick people who together with all tell a piece of the story has started occupy london and occupy london was designated a terrorist group officially alexei o'brien being targeted by the cyber security firm which is contracted with the dio dean trying to link her organization to muslim extremists myself with my work with wiki leaks and this other stuff dan ellsberg our whistleblower and who had dealt very closely with bradley manning together we kind of make up this evolving tribe of people who were you know were civil liberties advocates were independent journalists were hacktivists and computer prodigies you know aaron swartz was part of our case. and together we are all standing witness to what the what the u.s. government has done and become since nine eleven and because we're standing witn

deemed terrorists to get the full story so take a look at my exclusive interview with journalist chris hedges where he talks about the lawsuit and why every american should care about it. chris thanks so much for sitting down with me you know why why is the government holding this line that the n.b.a. is no different than they were that and that one it's obviously much more broad in its language. well that was the central argument the government lawyers made in the southern district court of new york that this was essentially not extending the powers of the government but. reinforcing existing powers and now you know i've read you m.-f. several times it's very clear that this is a vast extension extension of government authority allowing government to detain u.s. citizens or use the military to detain u.s. citizens strip them of due process hold them in military facilities indefinitely that is just not in the. and i think that we're seeing and we just saw the release . of a memo sixteen page white paper on drone attacks which looks like it was written by a first year law student i mean it you

is maybe they'll go to supreme court maybe not but really that interview that you did with with chris hedges was really telling because and it's very important because one of the things that you mentioned was how little attention it's getting from the mainstream media you don't hear about it and it's a deterioration of our of our information systems here here in the united states then it's unfortunate that our t.v. this network as well as the show is one of the only alternative media outlets that a person can turn to to learn about what's really going on with the n.b.a. and da that specific provision about indefinite detention is so crucial for people to know about because it is you know one of those the last it's a monumental case and yes we were it was really amazing be able to talk to the plaintiffs on the case and we're we've got to travel to boston today to now and no matter. what it's now you know it was an amazing it was amazing to be not in this office i think it was amazing just to be in his presence i mean this is a man who's eighty four years old he's still sharp he's a student di

people like chris hedges saying that this will be in fact used against journalists and an important thing to note i think is that the miranda told the b.b.c. that he was not asked a single question about terrorism but rather about what the guardian was doing in terms of n.s.a. stories so talk about the international fall out here well this is a long shot i mentioned earlier the grounding of evo morales as playing the threat of threatening to invade the ecuadorian embassy these are all actions that are being taken by western governments against south american governments and we saw all. reaction to the threats to storm the ecuadorian embassy we saw even more anger and even action taken against diplomats when they vulnerable says plane was grounded we've seen brazil really released a statement showing grave concern over over this look south america is not nearly as dependent economically on the united states and west anymore and that gives them more opportunity to stand up and defend themselves from things like this happen our key political commentator sam sacks thank you so much for weighi

with tears i mean this of course it's a very glaring problem for a journalist such as yourself chris hedges other people who have talked to what this government considers terrorists and also obama's war on whistleblowers i mean is this all being done in part to crush this type of investigative journalism well i don't know but it's being done across investigative journalism i think it's being done to it's a chilling message to anyone who works in the national security state that if you expose this stuff if you talk about it we will come after you and we will ruin your life so the people who started the torture program implemented it and continue to defend it are public figures that are somehow accepted at capital grille are all these restaurants talking to the powerful and those that spoke about it or tried to stop warrantless wiretapping lose their career lose their livelihood or go to prison it's chills through the journalistic community but i think it was ultimately aimed at anyone who would dare to speak out of school about things that are being done in the names of americans that's chil
