' It has been going on for a long long time. Many transgender cannot be identified as to what gender they were born.

Thank you I will.

Why can't people allow people to be as they believe themselves to be if it causes no harm?

Besides health care I believe an amendment should be added for an EPA like dept. The fore fathers never imagined all the chemicals that could wreck the environment.

Which is why they hacked the election to favor a political idiot.

Excellent post!!

https://wikileaks.org/ciav7p1/ Wow this stuff is the stuff of nightmares. I want to know who authorized this invasion of privacy IF TRUE. CIA malware targets iPhone, Android, smart TVs CIA malware and hacking tools are built by EDG (Engineering Development Group), a software development group within CCI (Center for Cyber Intelligence), a department belonging to the CIA's DDI (Directorate for Digital Innovation). The DDI is one of the five major directorates of the CIA (see this organizational chart of the CIA for more details). The EDG is responsible for the development, testing and operational support of all backdoors, exploits, malicious payloads, trojans, viruses and any other kind of malware used by the CIA in its covert operations world-wide. The increasing sophistication of surveillance techniques has drawn comparisons with George Orwell's 1984, but "Weeping Angel", developed by the CIA's Embedded Devices Branch (EDB), which infests smart TVs, transforming them into covert microphones, is surely its most emblematic realization. The attack against Samsung smart TVs was developed in cooperation with the United Kingdom's MI5/BTSS. After infestation, Weeping Angel places the target TV in a 'Fake-Off' mode, so that the owner falsely believes the TV is off when it is on. In 'Fake-Off' mode the TV operates as a bug, recording conversations in the room and sending them over the Internet to a covert CIA server. As of October 2014 the CIA was also looking at infecting the vehicle control systems used by modern cars and trucks. The purpose of such control is not specified, but it would permit the CIA to engage in nearly undetectable assassinations. The CIA's Mobile Devices Branch (MDB) developed numerous attacks to remotely hack and control popular smart phones. Infected phones can be instructed to send the CIA the user's geolocation, audio and text communications as well as covertly activate the phone's camera and microphone. Despite iPhone's minority share (14.5%) of the global smart phone market in 2016, a specialized unit in the CIA's Mobile Development Branch produces malware to infest, control and exfiltrate data from iPhones and other Apple products running iOS, such as iPads. CIA's arsenal includes numerous local and remote "zero days" developed by CIA or obtained from GCHQ, NSA, FBI or purchased from cyber arms contractors such as Baitshop. The disproportionate focus on iOS may be explained by the popularity of the iPhone among social, political, diplomatic and business elites. A similar unit targets Google's Android which is used to run the majority of the world's smart phones (~85%) including Samsung, HTC and Sony. 1.15 billion Android powered phones were sold last year. "Year Zero" shows that as of 2016 the CIA had 24 "weaponized" Android "zero days" which it has developed itself and obtained from GCHQ, NSA and cyber arms contractors. These techniques permit the CIA to bypass the encryption of WhatsApp, Signal, Telegram, Wiebo, Confide and Cloackman by hacking the "smart" phones that they run on and collecting audio and message traffic before encryption is applied.

If these are the elements of fascism then a resounding YES!

I am not surprised by any of it that is why I posted it. Russian hacking is real the big question is what conservative is pulling the trigger on this? It seems the Russians are targeting the dems only hmmmm

Yeah now this. http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/russian-hackers-said-to-seek-hush-money-from-liberal-us-groups/ar-AAnSbAZ

I agree. I think McMaster is a great selection for the position. At least from what I have read about him.

Understandable. However we have a little different situation with Team Trump, He actually called on Russia to hack Hillary. There could be a nefarious situation brewing and we will get to the bottom of this. The intelligence community has evidence Russia has messed with our election and a full scale investigation (much to the chagrin of Trump supporters and the Republicans) will be enacted. We will see if Trump is dirty time will tell.

Well you know my opinion on Obama. If it was illegal then he should be punished for his actions. He should not be above the law.

I am tickled pink that justice is being done. Sorry it happens against your guys. See I don't have a horse in the race. I think Obama and Trump are horrible. However lack of evidence is lack of evidence

You see we have hard evidence ( I seems you do not care one iota about evidence) that Team Trump has been talking with Russia. This is clearly Trump trying with all desperation to get the monkey off his back. We get rid of him first then waste our time with a guy who claims our former POTUS was not born in this country. Sorry but I did happen to read the story the boy who cried wolf.

https://www.wired.com/2017/03/feds-wiretap-trump-tower-not-obama-worry/ As usual going after a ghost that is not there. “While the order would have been requested by some part of the executive branch, Obama can’t order anything. Nor can Trump,” says former NSA lawyer April Doss, who stresses that her comments are based only on public information. “The order has to come from the court, and the court operates independently.”

Except there were NO wire taps. It is a LIE. http://thehill.com/homenews/administration/322489-gowdy-no-evidence-that-obama-wiretapped-trump Time to get the liars team Trump out of office for wasting tax payers dollars with their insane fabrications.

Oh crap people my apologies. I forgot we are dealing with a former President who was not even born in this country. He was born in Kenya yet we allowed this all to happen. Two terms and everything. He was not born in this country and he turned it into a Muslim country of all things. What have I been thinking???? I must be out of my mind. Now at least we have Trump to bail us out of this mess.

http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-wiretap-idUSKBN16D21T YAWN yet another republican says no evidence. Oh they must be part of this coverup too!!

Oh yeah outrageous that we should monitor Russian ambassadors and catch a dirty politician with their hands in the cookie jar. HORRID!! Its the world that the right wing supports we can never be too careful post 9/11 hmmmm? Oh yeah unless it screws over right wingers then it is a horrible travesty of justice. Seems normal.

I am not suggesting it. I guarantee it. They want to gut the EPA and go back to the filth hole this country once was.

yeah no rock no hard place. Just keeping tabs on Russian ambassadors and a crooked team trumpster getting caught.

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/03/05/us/politics/trump-phone-tapping-surveillance-issues.html?_r=0 What about wiretapping Michael Flynn’s calls with the Russian ambassador? In a related matter, some conservatives have raised alarms about why the government eavesdropped on the late-December phone calls about sanctions between the Russian ambassador and Michael Flynn, who resigned last month as Mr. Trump’s national security adviser. But national security specialists say it is routine that counterintelligence officials would monitor the Russian ambassador, who is a clearly an agent of a foreign power, and so would “incidentally” pick up Mr. Flynn, too. The rules generally require officials to “minimize” the privacy intrusion by masking the names and data of incidentally intercepted Americans before sharing reports or transcripts of those calls more widely within the government. However, there is an exception if the conversation constituted foreign intelligence and the American’s identity is necessary to understand its significance, as would be the case with Mr. Flynn’s discussion of sanctions. Now back to the serious threat of national concern. Trump and his involvement with Russia plotting to take over the world. Hyperbole for effect

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/fact-checker/wp/2017/03/05/trumps-evidence-for-obama-wiretap-claims-relies-on-sketchy-anonymously-sourced-reports/?utm_term=.47d2e91201e8 The Pinocchio Test While the Trump White House cited five news reports to justify its request for a congressional investigation, only two actually are relevant. It’s certainly ironic that the Trump White House — which has heavily criticized articles relying on anonymous sources — now relies on articles based on anonymous sources that cite information that has not been confirmed by any U.S. news organization. It would be amusing if it were not so sad. After all, Clapper, who presumably would be aware of a FISA court order, has issued an on-the-record denial. Even if these media reports are accepted as accurate, neither back up Trump’s claims that Obama ordered the tapping of his phone calls. Moreover, they also do not back up the administration’s revised claim of politically motivated investigations. We’re still waiting for the evidence. In the meantime, Trump earns Four Pinocchios.
