You mentioned their expectations were heightened with the surprise meeting on the d. M. Z. Between donald trump and kim jong un just nearly a month ago now with the announcement that say yes things were back on track were going to have working level talks to get negotiations underway again were still waiting for those working level talks to happen my pompei o has said that they could well happen in july while july is running out and what you do get a sense that patience on the north korean side is once again running out kim jong un has given a deadline of the end of this year for some sort of resolution of the ongoing ongoing sanctions against north korea and so this does seem to be a further warning that yes these are only short range missiles were not seeing a return to the Intercontinental Ballistic Missile testing or Nuclear Testing so it still gives donald trump the chance to say that his. Signature piece of Foreign Policy is still on track but it is a warning that time is running out that north korea still has a Nuclear Arsenal and still could if it shows return to the testing of the past as im. Brian thank you. Now former u. S. Special counsel Robert Muller has told congress his report did not exonerate President Donald Trump of obstruction of justice and he says trump could be prosecuted once hes out of office when i was testifying at 2 different hearings in congress about his investigation into russian interference in the 2016 president ial election mike hanna is live for us now in washington and mike as far as the reaction to millers testimony suppose it depends on who you talk to and and how hard pinions have already been formed about him and and his investigation and whether this. Simply harden those opinions or change them. Indeed yes well the idea of the Congressional Democrats was that they would publicize millers report one that has not being that widely read around the country they want to highlight sections of it that they thought would add to their efforts to bring some kind of investigation to fruition against President Trump they did not fully succeed but then neither did the republicans and terms of repudiating the contents of millers report essentially what you had in the course of the day was a bunch of people attempting to make a man take a political position and a man who was absolutely insistent that he was not going to do so Robert Miller at times has a tent still highlighted some critical factors in his investigation against President Trump and against russian interference in the u. S. Electoral process. It was in President Trumps eyes a victory lap appearing on the white house lawn to repeat his assertion that hed been vindicated in dismissing the investigation one that he claimed had placed a phony cloud over his presidency i think everybody understands that i think everybody understands whats going on there was no defense for this ridiculous hold this witch hunt thats been going on for. A long time. Earlier the special counsel was careful to show no bias to one side of the other disappointing those who wanted him to enlarge on his findings that there were 10 different acts that could be seen as the president obstructing justice what they largely got was this refer to the report on the next because along with the response thats trending on twitter as a new way of saying politely go away i take your question but he did confirm the president has not been telling the truth about the investigation so the report did not include he did not commit it to actually genesis. Thank you for that is correct and what about total exoneration if you actually totally exonerate the present you know now in fact your reports expressly states that it does not exonerate the person it does republicans previously defended the president he said donald trump is not above the law hes not but he did im sure shouldnt be below the law which is where volume 2 of this report puts him the former special counsel did seem to indicate the president could still face trouble from his report could you charge the president with a triumph after he left office yes you believe that he committed you could charge the president on stage with obstruction of justice after he left office yes in an evening News ConferenceHouse Democrats continue to reject the view of the president and his republican supporters and were insistent that millers questioning was a crucial part of a congregational investigative process that could end in impeachment why id like it to be a strong case is because i dont its based on the facts the facts in the law thats what matters not politics not partisanship just patriotism after a day that highlighted the Political Division in congress one thing is clear the investigation into President Trump will not end with Robert Miller so where does all of this go from here then mike. Well the democrats are going to continue their investigation as there are a number of house committees that are continuing various investigation into President Trump and those close to him that will continue we heard from the speaker of the house nancy pelosi now she strongly resisted bringing impeachment proceedings at this stage she is well aware of one fundamental point and that effectively at the end of impeachment proceedings it is up to the senate to they become the court in an impeachment case the senate of course dominated by republicans and she does not want to take a case to the senate that would be rejected that would cause political blowback for the democrats in the 2020 elections at the same time within the democrats shes got a body of followers who are intent on bringing impeachment proceedings this is beginning to rip the party apart so for the House Speaker its a very difficult thing to balance all of these factors but the point that she made there appeared to be a Slight Movement away from her inflexibility about the impeachment process making very clear that if there is going to be such a process it is going to be based on strong facts facts that she said even a Republican Senate could not repudiate but that is where we going to go in the weeks months possibly even years ahead mike hanna thank you. Good sugarman is professor of war Fordham University he says it is likely the democrats will increase their efforts to build a stronger case against the president. I think the key thing today is that i think more democrats i dont think this moves republicans at all but they were never going to be moved by today anyway and i think what happens is that coming out of today democrats may be more galvanized i think that there were enough moments and i think you saw there was a press conference where nancy pelosi adam schiff. Gerald now adler and allies are cummings all appeared together and even though they didnt say anything about bringing in starting a formal impeachment inquiry i think there was a show of unity about next steps i think its possible that more of the Democratic Caucus says ok look we need to move forward in some way i think its more likely we get to a formal impeachment inquiry even if that doesnt get us to and it piecemeal vote that is important legally because the next thing the democrats are doing theyre litigating over subpoenas tax returns financial records its a stronger legal case in court if those subpoenas are connected to a impeachment inquiry because those high crimes and misdemeanors stated by an inquiry are important for overriding the administrations assertions of things like quote executive privilege or the Attorney Client privilege i think lawyers are aware in the house for the house committees that they need that house impeachment inquiry to strengthen these next steps for getting those documents a president has vetoed 3 measures to block on sales to saudi arabia and the United Arab Emirates over the war in yemen while expressing his concern for civilian casualties in the conflict trump says congressional efforts to block weapons sales would damage relationships with key allies in may he a bypass congress to sell more than 8000000000. 00 in weapons to the gulf states.

The military forces were able to uncover the details of the plan and the participants led by general want to leave ahmed the military joint chief of staff and a number of military officers and senior members of the National Intelligence and Security Service this is in addition to leaders from the Islamic Movement and the National Congress party that have been taken into custody. Morgan has more on this now. The chief of staff is not the only person who has been arrested are several of the Top Army Officials were arrested as well including the head of the Armored Division and the head of the Popular Defense forests now that that Defense Force was a force that was established by the former president on what it is you who was ousted by the military council on the 11th of april its now clear the reasons behind of the arrest and people are saying that the minute sources in the military are saying that there were coup attempts that was organized by the chief of staff along with. Other top generals at least 18 people happen to rest have so far some of those have been forced into retirement and its now clear that were waiting for a statement from the military council to explain why these arrests took place but it is worth noting that the chief of staff was someone who was appointed by the military council after they came to power on the 11th of april so hes very much somebody of their choice and so clear if they would basically believe that he would try to stage a coup against the military council several officials as i said have also been arrested as well we understand that they are being investigated and there are concerns that what the military council is trying to do is to crank the consulate did its power to keep only the loyalists people who are loyal to the military council for positions of power in the military.

Or u. S. Regulators have slapped facebook with a 5000000000. 00 fine for violating its. Uses privacy it is the largest have a penalty of its kind the federal trade commission has imposed social media giant now has to create a special committee within its board to put an end to privacy decisions being made solely by chief executive Mark ZuckerbergFacebook Stock rose shortly after the fine was announced and that rise in facebooks share price has prompted criticism from democrats in the u. S. That the fine is too small f. T. C. Chairman joe simon says current legislation isnt good enough to effectively Police Silicon Valley our authority in these types of cases is quite limited which is why we have encouraged congress to consider federal privacy legislation but for now the only real world choice here was to take a historic settlement that provides immediate and important protection to American Consumers or wait for years to get far less relief which stoltz is an attorney who focuses on anti trust and competition policy at the Electronic Frontier foundation he joins us from San Francisco thanks very much for being with us so 5000000000. 00 is a lot of money but its not that much money for facebook is it did they did they get a slap on the wrist did they get off easy 5000000000 sounds like a lot but compared to facebooks annual revenues and profits its not very much the more even more importantly the parts of the settlement the deal with facebooks future conduct are really lacking the settlement doesnt restrict the way that facebook can use collect and share peoples personal information and were talking billions of people 2 plus a 1000000000 users plus even people who dont use facebook this element also provides no transparency into facebooks privacy practices or even any transparency into facebooks compliance with the settlement. So what sort of a message does this send to the Tech Industry as a whole that i think it sends a message that regulators are interested in privacy but are not really willing to go. Change the incentives that Companies Like facebook have to collect and share personal information about billions of people so it doesnt it does they need to be at completely examination of the how how. Tech companies are handled by the government is there is a need to be great to regulatory palli i think so there needs to be as chairman simon said a new comprehensive privacy legislation at the federal level and potentially at the state level in the United States there also needs to be good strong added trust and force them and that is capable of looking at modern Internet Companies in a holistic way is there an appetite in this Current Administration to do that though there might be there is bipartisan support for more careful regulation of the Technology Industry clued in both at the trust and force moment and privacy regulations so i think its possible that well see movement on both of those fronts but this and that the announcement by the f. C. C. Was clearly not enough good to get your thoughts on this mitch stoltz thanks for being with us. At least 14 civilians have been killed in an strikes on syrias province comes just 2 days after one of the worst attacks on the rebel held area when several strikes on a market in southern italy left more than 40 people dead syrias government began an offensive to retake the province nearly 3 months ago in a hall it has more.
