Sunday afternoon 2 pm here in moscow in august the 7 good to have you with us im you know no need on this is our t. International. A wide reaching to mystic Surveillance Program could be back on the cards stateside the troubled ministration house called on u. S. Lawmakers to permanently reauthorize it via the National Security agency the request was made in a letter sent to congress on thursday son by former National Intelligence director down coats interestingly his appeal to reveal about the controversial call busy detail Records Program had actually been suspended after collecting more information than it was illegally to do the spying program falls under a section of the usa freedom act which is set to expire in december kill it up and brings us more. The Trump White House is speaking up about a high profile n. S. A. Program that allows the recording of americans phone calls and personal messages dan coats the outgoing director of National Intelligence is urging congress to reauthorize the law before it expires at the end of the year now dan coats has confirmed that the n. S. A. Has put the program on hold however he says its necessary to have the ability to get the Program Going again if needed as Technology Changes our adversaries trade craft and communications habits will continue to evolve and adapt in light of these dynamic environment the administration supports reauthorization of this provision as well a coalition of privacy and Civil Liberties advocates sent a letter of their own to the u. S. House Judiciary Committee and said of renewing the program they called for meaningful surveillance reform the governments implementation of the program further demonstrates both the privacy threats posed by the program and its lack of efficacy it is highly concerning that it took almost 3 years to detect the fact that the n. S. A. Was collecting records even beyond the broad authorization provided under the program the n. S. A. Should not be permitted to resume this program now the freedom act gives the n. S. A. The ability to build a network with the Telecommunications Companies to record the phone calls and personal messages not just of the suspects but of anyone that they are in contact with. And voted to allow it to proceed for the. I will vote against that it is better than the usa patriot act but it doesnt go far enough in my mind in protecting our Civil Liberties we find that were spending resources for no benefit in terms of Public Safety in real just in terms of freedom and liberty and this is why i voted against the freedom act when the senate would fix the problems inherent in the patriot act just stop spying on innocent americans instead of trying to make it legal. When the freedom act came down it was a way to try to ease americans and say no no were going to make sure we work out the kinks but i think americans know better than that because and thats what dan coats is saying here is that anything the n. S. A. And sometimes the n. S. A. Just gets surveillance information thats just hundreds and pages of nothing and theyve actually come out saying that it doesnt really help resolve or solve any terrorism or investigate terrorism activities so because of this though now they can send that or they can decimate that disseminate that information out to the cia to other players to the f. B. I. And to people who might not have the knowledge of who really is a threat which is going to put a lot of americans at risk certainly these privacy violations so yes youre allowed to surveil youre allowed to keep your country safe from terrorism from these kinds of acts but at the rate that it infringes on the privacy rights of people who have absolutely no known ties to terrorism thats where it gets a little bit tricky. U. S. Congresswoman who said she was planning to visit her grandmother in the west bank says she will no longer be making the trip to the spot israel granting rashida to leave a visa and humanitarian grounds overturning an earlier decision to deny her entry the Democratic Party representative who support for the controversial Boycott Israel Movement had just the say about her fight for published and right.

Israel doesnt advance its case as a taller and democracy or and they vary in a u. S. Ally by bahrain elected members of congress from a visit in because of their political views i strongly condemn this decision by the Israeli Government which undermines the ability for our 2 allied countries to have the frank open and it times difficult discussions that we must have in order to ensure israel remains secure and democratic nation israels analysis and treaty congresswoman and omar is beneath the dignity of the great state of israel now it is worth noting that critics of israel can also face penalties within america itself the anti boycott which was passed 2 years ago allows us states to cut ties with contractors who support sanctions against the country it was designed to combat a boycott divestment and sanctions efforts targeting israel over its building of settlements in the palestinian territories critics of the legislation argue that it violates the u. S. Constitution which states that political boycotts are fully protected by the 1st amendment we got the thoughts of the Green Party Candidate for new york city council. I think it is a double standard but actually what is interesting about this is that the fact that there was sort of this retaliation is tarnished meant for individuals businesses that are joining.
