ronan, always good to see you. terrifying to see you.by bad guy governments but any government. >> i think in some ways it's a hard issue to sell people on caring about because you think, a, i'm not maybe an activist or a journalist or a political dissident, you know, who is going to care about my nudes? it's the reaction i get a lot. but i think no matter what category of american you are, if you are watching this and you care about any issue the government makes rules on, anything that government power might affect, you also need to care about the space for private communications about that issue. the space for activists to say, hey wait a second, we object. the space for opposition politicians to make the case that they could provide different leadership and the space for reporters to talk to sources who might produce the next watergate, the next pentagon papers. and what this film follows is how around the world in places where people said it could never happen here, in poland, greece, spain, a lot of this film is set there where i t

here with us, ronan farrow. ronan, good to see you. congratulations on the new docs. the spyware companies say that their programs can help authorities prevent terrorism, fight criminals but critics also warn that spyware can violate civil liberties. and you because you've been a target of spyware, because of your reporting on harvey weinstein. explain all of this i have been targeted by both old school surveillance and also tech driven surveillance, or had my phone location tracked, for instance and it opened up a world to me of just how commonplace this is and what we've seen in recent years. >> jake, is the world already regimes, this happens all the time. we saw the prominent example of jamal khashoggi, the washington post journalist who was murdered, and there was an allegation that on the phones of people around him, this very powerful spyware, pegasus was found. pegasus can turn your phone into a listening device. it can without you ever knowing. crack into your photos. your most personal data. and we've seen a string of those examples around the world. but now

good morning, anna herrera from supervisor hillary ronan's office.nfortunately, as you stated, you can't move forward because you don't have the four commissioners. so i'm here to answer any questions. but the fact is that as the lead sponsor and supervisor supervisor ronan is termed out. so we won't be able to move this forward. so maybe this comes back to you if another supervisor decides to pick it up. but do you mean because the supervisor won't be here next month when we reconvene? yeah, there's not enough time in the calendar to then move it to the board of supervisors. oh, i see, yeah. okay. well, in the event it comes back, i did have some questions that hopefully you can help us understand. and my colleagues may as well. the first question i have is just why? what's the point of this. why do we need this measure? it's just a simple, very narrow amendment right now. currently, there's no requirement that the whistleblower program has to report to the board of supervisors once they substantiate that there's been wrongdoing by a department head

ronan is here. >>> we have a man who has a searcy high iq.rson that believes in high iqs and his is about as high as they get. elon! what a job! what a job he does. and he happens to be a really good guy. you know, he likes this place. i can't get him out of here. he just likes this place. >> trump they're joking they can't seem to shake elon musk. this comes as we are learning tonight from the new york times elon musk met here in new york with an investor to the united nations , a secret location on monday. iranian rip officials reporting that they are turning down the temperature between the u.s. and iran the trump campaign did not confirm the meeting but it happened as musk clearly has become very deeply entrenched in the trump transition. he sat in on a majority of the job interviews that trump has conducted a mar-a-lago, i'm told. he flew with him to washington yesterday where he then got a standing ovation from republican lawmakers. i sourced and as reported on musk extensively. ronan is a writer for the american and a producer of the n

her son ronan was fatally stabbed in 2022 — and she now campaigns to ban deadly weapons.n the programme. thank you for inviting me. can i get a response on those reports on children as young as 11 carrying knives in england? it's heartbreaking. it's so sad to hear that ii—year—olds have to hear that ii—year—olds have to feel that way, and there is a society we should do more. what more can be done in your eyes? to what more can be done in your e es? ., , , ., eyes? to begin with, we should look into why — eyes? to begin with, we should look into why the _ eyes? to begin with, we should look into why the children - eyes? to begin with, we should look into why the children a - look into why the children a feeling that way. we should connect with the children's feelings, why they are fearing this type of... that they feel they need to carry these dangerous knives, or any knife, and we should find out the reasons first. we should ban these type of weapons, we should secure the funding around where we can help the children. so things like that, we should look into. especially

changing the models made easy of course the phone, the home mommy kept and keeps client the balance is ronan tentative activities. but the documents in his criminal case confirmed that and now it could nickname those entity, escape from his loving site and went to him to lead to where he lives today here. yeah. which your so probably a story which of our associate who we are, we are the news go forth and so forth. and we bring you up to the list, go till they show, usually around show the show not to wish to hon. you've got a new year and then you're going to have the whole part for the participants and combat operations against. so it'd be about as ends and promoted civilians are now awarded metals and treated as cameras. bipolar need to shift the designation of the center others and do the pick those up and move slowly push them and you could all you belittle. so my soonest would deal with any ability to practice jim sidney. we generally meet before you simply change the motion, calling me simple as i may, i cannot say because if it was right and i cannot do those or do a measurement, can

ronan faro w of "the new yorker" joins me now. his brazen and expansive influence on the u.s. that was before he became attached at the hip to the president. during the break, you and i were talking about kind of unprecedented nature of this very wealthy private citizen having so much influence. we were sitting here at the table trying to think if there's anything that even comes close like a rockefeller, or jpmorgan or loose. i don't think so. do you? >> well, in the course of my reporting, i talked to historians because i had the same question. i looked at all of those examples. i talked about some of the precedents that could fit the mold. key point here, dana, he said no. there's really nothing that comes so close. because when we look at elon musk's government contracts and they have been proliferated, nearly over 100 contracts. 17 agencies he works with on the order of 15 billion plus in value of these contracts. the officials who run those relationships are often powered by musk and these are incredibly national security se

that story i thought, oh, wow, there's something huge coming out because patrick kingsley and i think ronan maybe was a co-author, known as close and-- i think it was a 3,000 word article and very last few paragraphs they mentioned the rape, like they mentioned that somebody was raped. and you're like, wait, how did this uncover this? they're not investigative reporters, they buried it at the bottom and why? clearly israeli sources told them about this so clearly they're getting in front of something and sure enough, a week or two later, that's when the debates start to happen because what we learned is that there was video of it and because there was video of it, there were going to be international criminal charges brought unless there was some way of getting in front of it. to have-- to have it entire year long debate at the new york times about their article that never managed to find any evidence for rape, let alone systemic rape, to have that followed up by actual evidence of if, by idf prison guards landing in their lap and having it buried at the bottom and obfuscated with these wei

and you cite the fact that tesla stock has gone up, we know from reporting by ronan farrow and othersef among those. those entities he's still running while he's managing to advise the president-elect and scheme about whatever this new department is going to be. but he stands to benefit substantially. you listen to what the president-elect says about what elon musk might do beyond cutting and making the government more efficient and he stands to gain quite a bit. i think that it is -- it is cynical but we shouldn't excuse that and just to kind of note as we think through what this fake department might do, it strikes me there is a lack of serious about it and vaughn is right, we heard this $2 trillion figure over and over again, it came about very casually, at madison square garden rally when howard lutnick asked how much he could cut, it is an astonishing amount of money, $2 trillion and would have to come from entitlement programs and you know well efforts in the past to tackle deficits, the simpson bowles commission, all of that, it is something so intractable, so difficult to do i
