wonder what is the allure for these people who want to come and fight with a crazy group like isis that destroys people destroys everything? it s not simply a matter of people growing up in poverty who have no place to turn. these are by and large people who grow up in middle class families who leave to want to fight. i don t understand it it is a problem. you want the nsa to continue the bulk data collection because that s going to be voted on in the coming days. it s like anything else do you throw the baby out with the bathwater? we have to be careful, we re suspicious of it. but on the other hand we want to be safe. so it s a balance. where were you stand entitle end? i m still deciding. i haven t decided yet? yeah. congressman, thanks for coming in. just ahead, cash clues and possible accomplices is the motive in the d.c. mansion murder becoming clear centre our experts are going over new information, court documents just released. we re taking a closer look at t
across the finish line. it is looking very shaky right now. you refaelierenced the long night that rand paul had. rand paul looked at the remaining days before the memorial recess and wanted to sort of put the brakes on to say that the issue of bulk data collection of our phone records and some of the provisions of the patriot act that are set to simply be renewed and probably quickly in the senate he wanted a more full throated debate of that so he talked for 10 1/2 hours not leaving the floor. had a little help from ten other senators but in the end he brought attention to the issue but he has not really slowed down the process. it may be that the senate will be in this weekend but they probably will get work done in the next couple of days. thank you. of course keeping a close eye on the vote and checking back throughout the remainder of the
in the 1920 s. he might not have lived the day. think of richard jewell had been a japanese american during world war ii when rand paul two hours into what they are calling a filibuster of the patriot act, let s be clear what he s doing now doesn t fit the traditional definition. he is railing against the nsa and key components of that agency s power, bulk data collection will spir if congress doesn t get to passing an extension by july 1st. capitol hill correspondent kelly o donnell in washington following all of this. what do you think of the timing of the floor speech wasn t the senate working on a different trade bill? well, one of the frustrations as expressed by senator paul is that as it s kind of laid out for senators, he was not expecting to get any time to debate the patriot act. he found time and has in effect seized the floor using a lapsing
