the memo expressly states it is, also from glen greenwald, the moment me expressly states inventing aoader concept of imminence that is typically not used, specifically the president's assassination power does not require that the u.s. have clear evidence that a specific attack will take place in the immediate future. so you wonder about a definition of imminence that no longer includescl the word immediate. the aclu jamil jafer, also quoted by glen greenwald explains that the memo redefines the word imminence in a way that deprives the word of its a ordinary meaning. when we talk about due process, it iits important to understand where due process can occur. due process has to occur in the open. it has to occur in an adversarial process. if you don't have a lawyer on your side, who is your advocate, you can't have due process. due process can not occur in secret, but it also can't occure in one branch of government. this is a fundamentalpt misconception of the president. the president believes, with regard to either privacy and the fourth amendment or to killing americaniz citizens w

glen greenwald led the way in reporting on edward snowden's n.s.a. leaks. he published a book about the investigation "no place to hide", including documents from the n.s.a. he joined me to talk about his work and answered questions about our viewers, and the significance of edward snowden accepting asylum in russia. >> it was living in a spy film. we knew a couple of things that this was certainly the biggest leak in national security history, that if the u.s. government found out what it was that he was doing, that they would take extreme measures to put a stop to it one way or the other. we didn't know much else. this is from gary in honolulu. he said in light of the annexation of crimea, pro-russian thugs, constraints on the media et cetera. >> people seek asylum in the united states and no one asked the people "how do you feel about seeking asylum from a country that destroyed a country of 26 million or erected a torture regime, or prisoned people without charges. the point of asylum is not to declare which country you love, but seek application from p

glen greenwald has been the journalist in the forefront of reporting edward snowdon's leaks.but his professional and personal life has been drawn into that debate. >> it was like living in a spy film, essentially. we knew a couple of things that this was certainly the biggest leak in national security history. if the u.s. government found out what it was that he was doing they would put a stop to it. i was shocked. i had spent several weeks talking to him. i knew that he had access to enormous amounts of top-secret material. i knew that he had security insights, and i knew that he was prepared to spend the rest of his life in prison. >> this is from gary in honolulu. he said has snowdon expressed his opinions regarding his life of russia in light of putin's annexation of crimea. >> people seek asylum in the united states every year. you never hear someone say how do you feel about seeking asylum from a country that continues guantanamo. the point of asylum is not to seek the country you want to live the most. it's to seek protection. >> you can hear more of the interview here

had stolen from the national security agency, one of the first journalist he reached out to was glen greenwald a new book called "no place to hide." it details how he met the nsa leaker and how he decided to expose the information. here is glenn greenwald. good evening. good to have you with us. >> good to be with you, thanks. >> it's very interesting. just got through some of the beginnings of your story here but you talk about what it was like when he first reached out to you and you developed a reputation someone interested in uncovering these kinds of stories, you kept it at arm's length because you have a lot of stories that are crazy. >> people contact you and say i have a huge story for you and unless they give you something, you tend to be prioritizing because 99% of the time it's crazy or something worse. that's all that happened, we had a hard time communicating. in the beginning, he wanted me to use extradition knowing the nsa can listen between journalists and sources. >> it's real like like a spy novel. he talks and signs everything another name and you go to hong kong and meet wi

. >>> glen greenwald was the first journalist edward snowden contacted.nowden's failed approach to contact him in 2012. it led to ten surreal days in hong kong that could have been taken from the pages of the born trilogy. greenwald and snowden's meeting took place in hong kong. snowden walked toward him carrying a rubic's cube. decades younger than expected. was this fraud? did i waste my time flying across the world? how could he be so talented? over the next ten days, they spent hours in snowden's hotel room pain stakingly combing through every aspect of his story and vetting the documents he hoped to reveal. despite the cash of secret that is could change the course of history. he couldn't help but think of the man himself. durn himself into a felon and breach the commands of loyalty that was drummed into his head for years. a game plan was deviced. three days later, the revelations began. the first on june 6. a court order that offered proof that the nsa spied on americans cal data. the next day, the prison program detailing unauthorized access of th

i'm going give it to glen greenwald who doesn't necessarily play by the rules. len and bart gellman from the washington post, and i'm going to make sure it doesn't get to the "new york times" because of what they did in 2004. he has given a tremendous amount out there, and i think the real question we have, i have, is how much more is there, and is this just going to be a drip, drip, drip for years, and that changes everything if that's true. >> assuming you highlight in this documentary that the nsa, it beefed up after 9/11 because we realized we were not prepared for the attack, and there were terrorists that we just didn't know about that were running around this country, and that's why they obviously made changes to it, and we haven't had an attack of that scale, of that size since 9/11, but the minute something happens again, hopefully that's never the case, but the mood changes in this country. then the question is why didn't we prevent that? why couldn't we stop that? what is the alternative? >> this is the gun that's held to the head of president obama wh

think a lot of what's happened as a result of the revelations of people like edward snowden and glen greenwald, we do have a right to privacy when we expect it to be private. we make decisions to publish certain things. we make a decision to publish other things privately online or offline. and what's interesting is, i think the european government has the best of intentions with the laws that they're trying to pass. the problem is going to come down to actually executing it because this is the -- the internet is one giant copying machine. >> you describe the decision by the european court for this so-called right to be forgotten, which would give people the right to ask google or some other search engine to take down links that they find embarrassing. are you worried about that? >> i'm very worried about that. as a practical matter it will make hard for websites like reddit to keep providing user content. that's why in the u.s., we decided to not make sites like reddit responsible for what their users do. that's been the basis of the open internet in this country. my concern is there's a fals

spat between julian assange and glenn greenwald well there's a lot of people checking their twitter feeds because we're yet to see a response from grant from glen greene world and we could be in for round two of battle of the whistle blowers a little later on well as soon as it happens. you'll be the seconds i know about it from us i suppose the government director of the center for investigative journalism you told me believes the claims of innocent people because of the revelations that. it's been used in the past to denounce anybody who had information of this kind you're putting lives at risk you'll have blood on your hands all those sorts of arguments none of which turned out to be true and in fact in all the sun releases which were huge and voluminous in. the government claimed. thousands of dead people it'll be a terrible disaster and of course not a single person was hurt let alone killed by all those disclosures you think anyway maybe greenwalt could have been pressured to keeping it quiet not coming out with a name afghanistan i don't know. it's a good question that many people are asking that what he's done is quite surprising but ag
