Elections the upcoming president ial elections in russia one of the early questions was about that and theres a Record Number of candidates running this year and Vladimir Putin was asked what he thought about that he said good the more candidates there are the easier it will be for people to express their beliefs to find the candidate than the program that suits them but he said its important that everything happens in accordance to russian law and the russians make the choice of who their next president will be not foreigners because he said certain countries love to lecture the world on who and how to vote for them but but you know when you turn the situation around and when the same countries think that someone is meddling in their own elections well their reaction is very different and lied to me of putin said he finds that somewhat somewhat to face address than incredibly resident in russian in the russian public now the drone attack the drone attack in syria on the russian base in the taqiyya glad to be a putin said that russia who was behind it he also added that it was an attempt to split russia and turkey said look at the sophistication of these drones they were only camouflage to look d. I. Y. Do it yourself to look as if they were made in a shed somewhere they were incredibly complex they had satellite Navigation Systems of flight path they had advanced mechanisms to drop these bomb thats on the russian airbase and he has made me a putins oncet. They were provoked that play there but it wasnt the turks we know who they are as regards the attacks themselves we have no doubt theyd been well prepared beforehand and those drones were made to look makeshift but in actual fact they clearly contain high tech elements that couldnt possibly have been assembled on the ground in syria the investigation with regards to those drones is continuing and we expect more details to come in the weeks ahead and. Bring us the latest on other russian president s press conference. Well so we have time for myself or the team here at all to get by for this hour. Time for the latest global headlines. Beginning with this is lou. Lou the un. When you dont. See the teacher. To get a quick. What are you most through only ten space. Left alone he. Said. Claiming to know. That. If you speak french. You. See. Whats new in. This busy. Place. Unfortunately it appears that once people learn that youve reported in a Sexual Assault or may have been involved in an incident that they become scared of you instead of being scared of the perpetrator. Greetings and salutations all right we begin today with some truly frightening moods hawk watchers and i want to i want you to get prepared i want you to prepare yourselves for this get your prayers ready prep the underground bunkers all right prepare yourselves did you know that because of the brand name in chief one donald trump consistently watches fox news like most republicans across the land that actually makes box news a prime target for russian and chinese espionage and influencing done done. Though the organs yes in todays latest edition of i cant believe im actually reading this that is the dire warning positive by a former cia counterterrorism analyst aki perrette in the Washington Post perspectives section parrots muses that given Sean Hannitys and fox and friends unadulterated influence on trumps twitter feed that if he were a spy a master in the employ of a hostile Foreign Service hed devote some significant effort to penetrating one specific private institution Fox News Channel he goes on to lay out the aisle tactics those evil russian spies might use he writes a truly aggressive intelligence that would not just monitor whats being said on the network it would target the on air talent as well as the folks behind the scenes who make the networks programming possible this might range from opening friendly contacts with these employees to outright recruitment. Now i tell you hawk watchers this this this is this is truly truly disturbing news i mean i thought i thought it was my job and our t. V. Job to spread the evil russian info. And so across the lands now deep state Intelligence Community influences are influencers are telling me that box and news may be the compromised russian propagandists. Im confused im a little hurt a little hurt i guess is just another day of living in the upside down alternate reality insanity that has grown out of russia gate and the new cold war two point zero now lets jump on our b. M. X. Bikes pop some reeses pieces and turn the upside down right side up and start watching the hawks. It looks like. Its like the last two to get to the bottom so if you see. What the like you know that i got. Looks pretty good this. Week so. Well done one and all the watchdog so i am i rolled with and on top of the law im also very confused i dont but. Im no man apparently now fox news is the propagandists over there or they could be the evil foreign intelligence agencies could could get in the fox news because donald trump watches it all the time and then they could they could they could infiltrate and buy off people and create agents and useful idiots and spread evil propaganda through thank you very much like fox news isnt already spreading for years propaganda for the republican ideals theyve been spreading nonsense for the republicans for a very long time they dont need anybody else help the thing thats so strange about this to me is this idea that everyone who works in news is just one cup of coffee away from getting honeypot in which they still as our wonderful productive actually camp said where the honey pot because theres not one yet im only im a really is this idea of the. Everyone of media is just so ridiculous and stupid that were all just you know falling for these k. G. B. Called who are tired dicks and well you know and in a serious side when you look at this because its easy to look at a headline like that whats easy. Is this really gotten this ridiculous now but when you look at the other side of it and when you realize that in this kind of new cold war climate you know were News Agencies are being targeted as propaganda and you know you know theyre directors being forced to you know decide on x. From nineteen thirty eight against season and having press credentials congressional president ial candidate in a way you know these things can turn dangerous very quickly and kind of turn into a sense of support censorship of free speech you know is this dangerous stab at the end of the day in your opinion is this kind of like i mean look you know the guy writing this article didnt like say like he believes this is actually happening hes just more like throwing it into the ether that this could be someone with a lot of the selfindulgent musings of everyone from the right to her everything and will get out a little later in the furrow but this one is one of really gets me because. You look at what hes saying which hes basing this all on a. P. Reports of Russian Hackers supposed allegedly going after journalists summoning what are journalists have have gotten phishing emails and they must be from from fancy fair and everything i dont even know what to say about that but whats interesting is when you when you go down his list in the article of things that are you know k. G. B. Be right from the crate k. G. B. Cold where playbook theyre actually not theyre actually much more in line with the cia tool used during the cold war which we now use today to sell to base. And i know right i mean. It reaks youre im sure the k. G. B. Did like you know crazy stuff in europe and things like that back in the day like in projects not in bird was the actual documented cia tactic during the cold war and once what you see and thats when you get to like realistically the cia is the more to influence us culture and influence your socalled six through by using a journalist which was the entire idea of our Broderick Mark mark on board which was in one nine hundred forty eight the cias prince wizened who was appointed to the director of the office of special projects that was the later renamed the office of policy coordination. While sitting in a shop called cordoning policy many question why isnt a created what was called which we found out later during like the investigations after watergate after watergate and like the rockefeller like the Church Investigations the secret of what was called project operation mockingbird which was designed to basically influence the domestic American Press and push the cias agenda which was an anticommunist anti russia and anything that was remotely socialist or made america look bad you never want to make america look bad these that these things were in a place amazing that doesnt happen. Anymore and Philip Graham actually the publisher and co owner of the Washington Post was recruited to run mockingbird within the news industry by wire the guy runs was involved with this article ends up in the Washington Post so you know its pretty incredible very good and i think what people dont realize is this isnt just oh no conspiracy theorists in the fiftys but if were going to bring up things that happened in the fiftys we have to look at things like project mockingbird not because were its crazy government did wild things in the name of democracy and our safety its how big it was right and i think thats a part so in the book the secret history the cia before we move on the story joe trying to rights by nine hundred fifty three operation mockingbird had a major influence over twenty five newspapers and wire agencies including the New York Times time c. B. S. So yeah you know why stars operations were funded by siphoning the funds intended for the Marshall Plan some of this money was used to bribe journalists and publishers you know three thousand salaried contracts or employees Carl Bernstein to nine hundred seventy seven wrote in the Rolling Stone that he knew that considered more than four hundred journalists had had an alliance with the cia so. And in turn of developments reminiscent to last years protracted legal battles over the president s infamous travel ban it federal judge in San Francisco ruled this week that the that the white house move to terminate the doc a program that shield socalled dreamers from deportation is not grounded in legal reasoning but was rather a capricious decision and to be illegitimately used as a political bargaining chip in this verdict judge cited some of the president s tweets on the topic including one in which he throws cold water on the idea that anyone even him would want to actually deport americans brought here is your children and an ironic twist of reasoning agrees that since the president is on the tweet record theoretically in support of the program and claims to only oppose it because it was not implemented in accordance with existing law the courts have a duty to step in decide whether or not the program is legal and prevent the trumpet administration from scrapping a Program Trump appears to actually support. Well nothing like manual constitutional crisis and pack your hog watchers so where do we even start this. Is so much bizarreness going on with doc and i mean we watch the live you know everybody having kind of if youre paying attention watch the live round table thing of the president and democrats republicans all part of you know trying to iron out immigration and all that you saw just how terrible elected officials all acting are really including for our own investigation deported more people more than anyone else and everybody sat back and every time you brought it up its like but we but we but we got in this war does the democrats look we cannot round table would trump that you know that i mean they were they were barely raise an appeal like oh no we do. I mean there was no like big stand against donald would a moment do that peace through strength right thank. You use a little military style yeah i remember that the whole deal then you need to show some strength to him now let me ask you this and its about trump he claims he needs us twitter to order to get the sort of understood message to his followers that he doesnt
