security peiter zatko, alleging the social media giant s leadership misled its own board, and government regulators about security vulnerabilities that could potentially open the door for foreign spying, hacking and disinformation campaigns. those are stunning, serious claims sent to congress and several federal agencies last month. our very own cnn correspondent donie o sullivan sat down with him to talk about this. here s the story. reporter: ready? yes. reporter: why are you coming forward? all my life i ve been about finding places where i can go, and make a difference. reporter: this is peiter zatko, until january of this year he was head of security at twitter, but now he s a whistle-blower, and he says twitter security problems are so grave, they are a risk to national security and democracy. twitter is a critical resource to the entire world. i think it is an extremely important platform. reporter: he handed over information about the company to various
we got a lot of people out, but it was the vast majority of the people that we made that promise to about the special immigrant visa, they are still left behind, still there, and it is becoming only increasingly challenging to get them out, and frankly it is only getting more dangerous for them. now it is not just the taliban that is searching for them, it is nature that is coming after them. there is a famine. they are going into incredibly harsh conditions and if the u.s. continues at the rate of processing special immigrant visa applications, it is going to take 18 years to get through that backlog. that s just not going to be acceptable. and that s why we re calling on the biden administration and congress to take two actions, each of them independently, to help solve this. congress needs to pass the afghan adjustment act and president biden can take action similar to what we re doing with ukrainian refugees to bring afghans to this country, give them parole, and get them on a path
list that the fbi released when it was unsealed from the justice department argument. they want to see exactly what they took because they don t really still have a good idea of what was in the boxes beyond what trump knows, what trump knows that they took. and so that is what they re searching for in all of this. okay. there is a trump playbook in defending against a whole host of investigations, and oftentimes they re public comments, public comments can differ what his lawyers are arguing in court as we have seen in this case. how does this latest step by trump s legal team fit into that strategy? yeah, it certainly does look a lot like the playbook we have seen trump take before. if you read this document, it technically is a legal document, because it is this motion that they filed, their first legal action, and so they have been saying a lot publicly on social media, on television, this is the first action they have actually taken in court. but if you read this document, it
that s once they get here, though. what needs to be done now to address this 96%? this vast majority, by the way, i ve been working to get a family out myself and running into the various brick walls one does, how can that be changed? the fastest way is for the president it take action. he can do this. there is something called the uniting for ukraine program that the president stood up, that the government is executing, that has gotten out 100,000 ukrainians from a war zone, we can do the same thing for afghanistan. we can get them out, and also take concrete steps to change the way we re processing afghans. we need more opportunities for afghans to connect with u.s. consular services so their applications can be processed. we need more lilly pads so we can get afghans out of the country, so they can be processed somewhere safely and need to keep talking about this and raising awareness about all the programs that exist for americans to support all of this at the same time. they nee
really tough. reporter: the pandemic and inflation have hit americans hard, increasing long-standing disparities in some communities. african americans want the president s attention. as middle class black woman, i don t see the push for the black economic community like really exploding. i think the message is being delivered, but i don t think the message is being captured in the way that we want it to be captured. reporter: black americans account for $1.6 trillion of spending power in the united states. but often feel ignored. we want ours. we need ours. we need to have access to capital. we want action. we need action. we demand action. reporter: earlier this summer, vice president kamala harris announced new public private initiatives in underserved communities, hoping to kick start major minority investments. and i believe given the breadth of the financial disparities in our nation, the public and the private sector must join forces to take on
