now there's one thing I know about the senator Diane Feinstein she laws then I
say
she believes that is very important that they spying on average americans we
found out through Edward stones are relations
but they're actually miss by enough $300 million Americans
and funny a finding the mat metadata for phone calls finding out who we called
when we call them
et cetera and by the way rummaging through our emails
Anna online searches et cetera there was one person who's
absolutely sure the NSA spying government spying overall was the right
thing to do
that was die and buy-side get a load over this montage that year Jackson
producer put together
what dianne feinstein said back that I can tell you this
these programs are within the law I think terrors up worldwide
are the only thing taken as has been correctly expressed is not content
up a conversation but the the information that is generally
on your telephone bill are there are new bombs
I flew over the I'm World Trade Center going to
senator lautenberg humoral and in the distance was the set the Statue of
Liberty
and I thought those bodies jumping
out up that building hitting the canopy very big bombs
is keeping America safe human intelligence
isn't going to do it trucks being reinforced for those bombs it is true
are the this is a wide collection
up phone records as mike said no name no content
they are bombs that go through magnetometers I I think this
this is very hard there is no more director honest person then Jim clapper
and I think both Mike and I
know that bomb-maker is still alive
I you can miss understand the question
armed this is one at the dilemmas
up talking about it and there is
huge malevolent out there so back then when they're spying on us huge
malevolent
very very big bombs okay be scared
and make sure that you let the intelligence agencies in the United
States spying on you
and by the way the people who reveal this like it was tone might be criminals
i mean they have revealed some important things than anyone who crosses
intelligence agencies could be a criminal
so here's what's interesting turns out that when the
Senate was doing investigation at the CIA different part of our intelligence
community
and they were investigating their will waterboarding in their torture program
the CIA was spying on the senate and when they did that
at and it was revealed then the CIA
leak some information suggesting that perhaps the senate aids
had been illegally getting information from the CIA like they were Edward stone
all the Sun shoe meet
other foot and I and prices walked
are you telling me that like because we were doing investigation have you
big you would call us criminals any
you were spying on all of us in fact
she did what other senators today called hero like
40-minute speech now railing
against intelligence community watch the CIA did not ask the committee
or step if the committee had access
to the internal review or how we obtained
instead the CIA just went
and search the committee's computers the CIA has still
not asked the committee any questions about how
the committee acquired the panetta review in place so that asking any
questions
the CIA's unauthorized search up the committee computers
was followed by an allegation which we now have seen repeated
anonymously in the press that the committee staff
had somehow obtained the document through
on authorized or criminal means perhaps to include
packing into the CIA's computer
network as I have described
this is not true how dare you
we told you to spy on other people mott us
and then day cues also possible criminal activity
that's what we're supposed to reserve for regular citizens
mmm more outrage from Dianne Feinstein when the
tables have been turned based on what director brendan has informed us
I have grave concerns that the CIA search
may well have violated the separation of powers principles
embodied in the United States Constitution
including the speech and Debate Clause
it may have undermined the constitutional framework
a sensual to affective congressional oversight
up intelligence activities or any other
government function all the sudden it turns out
that the intelligence agencies might be violating the Constitution
now you remember earlier day and price and we think is very big bombs out there
i mean they had to violate your rights in the Constitution because at that
malevolence out there now when it's their rights being violated their
privacy being violated
I just Wallace I pick up or
accept it because two shooters older know that radius
is that right another part of the speech you talk about the Port Mann if you like
you know they might be violating the poor the moment
yes senator feinstein we knew that
are one more are staffed involved in this matter
have the appropriate clearances handled this sensitive
material according to establish procedures
and practice to protect classified information
and were provided access to the panetta review by the CIA
itself as a result
there is no legitimate reason two alleged to the justice department
that senate staff may have committed a crime
I view the acting Consul generals refer or
as a potential effort to intimidate
this staff and I am NOT taking it likely
also you're saying there when they were investigated
they tried to intimidate the people that are investigating them wow
I wish I had a gun that memo earlier Kyle like exactly what you did Edward
stoning
Glenn Greenwald Juliana signs Chelsea Manning
mean God it's okay when you run roughshod over regular Americans but if
you touch the powerful
that is an issue of the separation of powers out Gary go
now course John Brennan the CIA directors I but us me what do you need
he says as far as allegation of CIA acting in the senate computers
nothing could be further from the truth but I
got our like what then is a sad about spying on Americans
that so honest clapper that plants price I talked about earlier
the one who said owns the you know
least untruths poor thing I could say I P P
gee I wonder Brennan will say that later by the spy made it on the senate
up and when asked for the right he said no not quote
that's just beyond the scope recent
that the CIA would do spiny beyond the scope a reason
and against their political enemies know all geek dad got nukes
never okay now how to dress the center's feel
well now all the sudden their outrage pat leahy
senator from Vermont says CIA's actions might be called
criminal conduct okay again when intelligence officials do too
regular American Paso criminal when they dude powerful senators very criminal
made and it's now all the sudden bipartisan John corner very conservative
Republican from Texas
I'm obviously very concerned and interested in following up
horse or your concern when the NSA was spying in during the Bush years during
the Obama years at I was off I
right and Majority Leader Harry Reid finally ends by saying
her statement today referring to price I'm no was one of the most important
principles that we must maintain
and that is the separation of powers
and that right there sums it up in a nutshell
it's one thing when you do it to the powerless but when you get into
our power then we've got an issue so
all the sudden it turns out the senate is very concerned
but intelligence officials spying on Americans
when those Americans happen to be them
