by a guardian? questions to which we often don't know the answer. karen, i wanted to start with you on this and ask you, in light of the limited information sometimes, we know that pennsylvania's created the guardianship tracking system and the database for guardianships that would be up and running in all 67 counties in pennsylvania by the end of december i guess first, could you explain how the system would address this gap in data? >> i would be happy, senator, thank you. and again, thank you for your leadership on behalf of older americans. >> sure. >> we are really thrilled to have you on this committee as our voice in washington. so the guardianship tracking system, as i mentioned, came after the work of the supreme court's justice task force and it was a recommendation, that national report that was released in 2014 similar to nevada, our courts really took leadership in this role, and as we were working as a leadership entity through the problems with access to guardianship, elder abuse and

guardian. we must do more to make success stories like this one the norm. today our committee is releasing a bipartisan report to help change the tied. implement reforms, and restore trust in guardianship. titles ensuring trust strengthening state efforts to overhaul the guardianship process and protect older americans. the report is the culmination of this committee's year-long work investigate guardianship systems. an estimated 1.3 million adults are under the care of guardians. family members, or professionalses who control approximately $50 billion of their assets. guardianship is a legal relationship created by a court that is designed to protect those with diminished or lost capacity. we have found however that in too many cases, the system lacks basic protections leaving the most vulnerable americans at risk of exploitation and fraud. throughout the course of the year, we have heard harrowing tales from families around the country who are struggling with abusive guardians. we also spoke

on to the guardian., the internet has become a dystopia. inventor of the world wide web, the internet has become a dystopialj mean, i don't disagree with him. i suppose he has created something he hoped will help the world are now he looks at the horror which comes out of it everyday. things like the abuse people get every day. there is so much racism, homophobia, sexism on the internet. there is a lot of discrimination, and now there are lots of threats and worries about political manipulation which affect the world. i think in many ways one of the big issues is that when the internet was created, as with most new inventions, people were excited about what could happen with it and don't think about the possible bad effect. we don't think about antibiotic resistance, we just get excited we can cure things. i think the tide is turning. i think a lot of people are thinking about how we can improve the internet and thinking about how much of a negative impact it has on our lives, especially for young people

here's a little more context for the "guardian" report. manafort would have been taking this newly reported wikileaks right around the time he joined the campaign as a veteran strategist lauded to come and bring some order heading into the convention. >> let's talk now with donald trump's newly minted convention manager, paul manafort. this is not manafort's first rodeo. he is a veteran political strategist. >> here's another reason this story is so explosive. it would put manafort in secret dialogue with wikileaks to potentially get secret tips long before julian assange ever told the rest of the world that he did have the goods on clinton. >> we have upcoming leaks in relation to hillary clinton which are great. we have e-mails related to hillary clinton which are pending publication. >> at a minimum, this report shows the man who released the e-mails hacked by the russians met with the man who ran donald trump's campaign and had longstanding ties to russia. at a crucial time, again, before the e-mails came out. that's a minimum. now may

remember this day when the guardians permitted a serial fabricator to destroy the paper's reputation. wikileaks is willing to bet the guardian $1 million and its editor's head that manafort never met assange but manafort is facing new troubles now anyway because last night the special counsel, robert mueller, said he repeatedly lied to prosecutors violating his plea agreement meaning the former campaign chair could face more charges and prison time. the special counsel's team is looking into whether members of the trump campaign knew in advance wikileaks was going to public hacked democratic e-mails weeks before the presidential election. robert mueller is also looking into possible collusion between russia and members of president trump's campaign and whether the president obstructed justice. the president said there's no obstruction or collusion. john roberts reporting live from the north lawn. >> reporter: as you pointed out at the white house commenting on the guardian report on paul manafort and any meetings he may have had with julian assange in years past they said there's no t

greg, let's start with the guardian.here is a picture of a polling station in the brooklyn borough of new york. it is fair to say, above everything else, they are not voting for president that they may as well be. this is very unusual for a mid—term and that it is seen asa for a mid—term and that it is seen as a referendum on donald trump. he has been the most controversial and divisive and the most unusual president of my lifetime and really he has been so front and centre the republican campaign it is almost as if the election is completely about him and not the individual candidates. bizarrely, some might say, the economy, which is booming, has not much of a look in. the american economy is red—hot. we are near 3% unemployment in the united states. the markets have been doing quite well. but interestingly both parties seem to be focusing on other issues. the democrats over the past few months have been focusing quite a bit on health care and, despite certain attacks made by republicans, several elements of the afforda

let's speak "the guardian" report, what does it mean if "the guardian" report is true? >> well it's the first step of potentially covering another avenue of collusion. i say potentially because there's a lot we don't know. what is collusion? collusion is the trump campaign and the russians working together to defeat hillary clinton. that's the claim. we know about the trump tower meeting which seems to have been planned this collusion, but turns into a bust. here, we know that the russians used the wikileaks to get very damaging material out about hillary clinton. and the democrats. what we have not seen proof of is that anyone affiliated with trump assisted, knew in advance, helped wikileaks do that. obviously, roger stone is under investigation. >> right. >> for doing that. here, a new possible avenue. what does paul manafort know, or do, to help wikileaks distribute this incriminating information. >> it was discussed, what did he ask, all of the above. >> these are questions raised by this report. they're not proof of anything. but, obviously, this is something that

here we have according to the guardian a meeting that is happening in march. we know about this trump tower meeting that obviously people are interested in. mueller is interested in that as well. what came of it? if you are paul manafort and donald trump jr. saying nothing really came of it even though there promises about something that could come of it. this is significant. there two other meetings before this 2016 meeting, but if this meeting happened, it could be a smoking gun linking the trump campaign to wikileaks. that links to russia as well. >> what did you make of the denials from wikileaks and paul manafort. his credibility is at issue. his hard to navigate this. >> it sure is because we have the guardian report where the sourcing of these allegations and meetings is unclear from the written report. on the other hand we have paul manafort, a verifiable liar and julian assange who is not the most credible figure either. we really have a difficult time until there is more verified reporting determining who is telling the truth. is the guardian reporti

pinning it on "the guardian" that the two of them, assange and -- why am i blanking -- >> manafort. >> thank you, dana. it's been a day. manafort, spring of 2016, what do you have make of that timing, garrett? >> well, i don't think paul manafort was going in there to get restaurant recommendations for a great night out in london. >> it is possible. >> it's possible but assange has been in there since 2012. he's not really got the finger on the pulse of the dining scene anymore. i think what you see is, you know, potentially one of the reasons why bob mueller has been so interested in julian assange, roger stone and jerome corsi, sort of this nexus of people that we have seen him zeroing in on since the spring, and that there appears to be some screws tightening on jerome corsi and even on roger stone in the last couple of weeks. remember the ecuadorian embassy in the last week really has been taking some interesting action. they removed the ambassador who has been julian assange's ally in london and they have been blocking julian assange's lawyers from meeting with him. so there is s

i want to make clear what the guardian is reporting. according to "the guardian," paul manafort held secret talks with julian assange inside the ecuadorian embusy in london on several occasions, right around the time manafort joined the campaign. the acquaintance with assange goes back for five years to when manafort was advising the moscow president. and a separate internal document written by ecuador's intelligence agency and seen by the guardian lists paul manafort as one of the guests and russians. manafort, assange and wikileaks strongly deny any meetings occurred. here to help figure out what to make of the report, ken dilanian, and an msnbc contributor, what do you make of this report, ken? >> chris, i have to say, my confidence in this story waned as the day went on. i spent all day reporting on it, talking to counterand former intelligence officials, including people who held very senior jobs and i couldn't find anyone who was in a position to confirm this report. here's what i do know, that the british had this embassy under c

i will publish these pieces of the guardian. at the end of 2016 we will slap them between covers and get it out. in january or february 2017. when there somewhat interested. that even before then. i was thinking there is a lot more here i need to try to figure out. and so already i was thinking those pieces in the guardian are just the starting point. that 70% of the book is new. for my own have, for my own attempt at some peace of mind. about the state of this country i live in. i think we all, all of us especially people here book people, the public life. there is not a wall between the public life in our interior lives. especially with this day and age when we are so assassinated --dash make saturated with media. it is very much a part of our interior lives. the huge spike in this people reporting that they are depressed and anxious. it has to do with the election. i need to go as deep as i could. and write the most rigorous book about that i could. but how we got there. why things turned out the way they did. see my camera h

moving out of the guardian.ine they have done extensive analysis of how people vote across the world but in europe in particular. 0ne how people vote across the world but in europe in particular. one in four europeans are now voting for populist and it describes populist politics is a battle between the overlooked ordinary people and the corrupt and self—serving elite. can you tell us about this? this is interesting. the article discusses the current climate as being a breeding ground for populism so you have the number of europeans voting for populist parties surging from 7% to 25%. that is a huge increase. blaming it on things a recession, immigration, social media. you just have to look at at italian spain and greece as examples of that. but then they also mentioned czechoslovakia where you have low unemployment, a strong economy and it has almost been untouched by the european immigration issues and they still have a really strong populist party. did they say it was a cause for worry? it has been a cause of

but you were chosen to give a lecture the guardian journalist had. various people saying the canary should not be suspecting journalists of showing partisanship for us foreign policy when covering central america. these kind of obscure. i mean it was as well you should not be able to give the go. i think the bottom line is i'd been scheduled to and i was invited incidentally this is not something i asked for i was invited by the by the national union of journalists but members of the speech accepted because it was an honor i had no one venue you know i didn't care frankly about the speech was about quality james. in the guardian building in two weeks before the event partly because i think its rival because. that's their view i mean we're here to talk. very rarely. where the rules are our first ration with the guardian is they're always complicit in the rise of the far right you know puff pieces by you know outright fascists meanwhile condemning leftwing people who just want to share more as the chief threat to jewish people in this country is beyond

that with the guardian two to knowingly they had a heads up the day before when the when the story was published online you needn't think that they were they still ran with it on the morning print edition the following morning i went to the newsstand and there was this completely fabricated story and they had like at least i don't know how much time to stop the press from the day before but they ran with it anyway this tells me that there's a deep seated corruption within mainstream media outlets and i think it's becoming more than an open secret now that there is a sort of a level of penetration by the intelligence services in the west whether that's through influence or through actually in bet embedded people in editorial desks or whatever but we have to thank luke harding and denny collins for helping to expose this we owe them a great debt of gratitude this week because it showed exactly what these mainstream media outlets are doing in a coordinated fashion and i know i'm going to add the anonymous document dump of the integrity initiative which is the m.k. and national endowment f

using the guardian as as a dumping ground for all the leftovers now. it is just out of control it's to me it's amusing when garrett when one of the things it's fascinating to me and watching the julian assange. story and russia gate is that there is absolutely almost absolutely no downside in being wrong you know it as is a if you look at the pedestrian e-mails we learned a lot that's what makes them so angry that you learned a lot about hillary clinton in her campaign and we also learned for us on this program is that new york times journalists would send their copy to the d.n.c. to be proof read to be fact checked to be approved before it would be published now if that isn't the sad state of affairs for journalism i don't know what is ok you asked the powers that be that you genuflect to the powers that be to get permission to print propaganda this is pathetic go ahead gareth that's that state of journalism now. you know i think the point is here that you can you can get away with almost anything as long as it is in line with the than the official. t

i wanted to start with this "guardian" piece.y're saying manafort in 2016 and right before the e male d-m dump, what do you make on the latest timing? >> if it's in fact correct, "the guardian" report is extraordinary. what in the world with manafort be doing meeting with julian assange if not to talk about assange's role as a cutout for disseminating information that the russians obtained by illegal hacking? put that together with the fact that now cooperation agreement has fallen apart and mr. mueller intends to explain why that is the case in a sentencing memorandum. that sentencing memorandum that will be public, one presumes, will lay out facts relating to the investigation as it relates to the potential for u.s. collaboration with the russians in the hacking. so if in fact -- >> let me jump in on when manafort is purported to have visited this ecuadorian embassy, wikileaks is totally denying this ever, ever happened. as a lawyer, wouldn't it be easy to prove if manafort visited the embassy? >> well, it may or may not be dep

so an interesting headline in the guardian, i will start with you because it is your paper, jim.sponse. one might say thatis worrilow response. one might say that is one way of reporting it because he did also call for a kind of collaborative bipartisa nship approach with the democrats as well. if you listen to everything he has said in the few hours we have had since the results became clear, you would find him calling for a warlike response, the community come together and everything else you
