Google scans users’ emails for targeting advertising, but they’ve begun to partner with law enforcement to scan for child abusers and child porn criminals.  The question of privacy rights is in the forefront. Fascinating facts about vibrators are discussed.  A hotel in NYC is getting criticism over their policy of fining their guests $500 if they post any negative reviews on websites.  A U.S. district judge ruled that Alabama’s rule to make abortion clinics have admitting privileges is unconstitutional.  This tactic was a roundabout way to eliminate abortion clinics in the state.

Ana, Michael Shure, and Jimmy Dore hosting.  CNN foreign reporter Arwa Damon has been sued by two EMTs for biting them during a drunken rage.  They are seeking $1 million.  TYT gives her a pass after her heartfelt apology, taking full responsibility.  A couple of DREAMers approached Rep Steve King at a restaurant about his constant barrage of negative comments about immigrants.  While King engaged in an argument with the two young adults, Ron Paul and his aides jumped up and scurried away so he wouldn’t have to answer any of their concerns.  At one point, King grabbed the woman’s wrist while arguing his point.  Rep Mo Brooks appeared on Laura Ingraham’s show and claimed that there is a war being waged on White people in America by Democrats due to the immigration policy.  Jimmy and Michael disagree over whether Brian Williams has the obligation to give the full story when Conservatives or Republicans are lying. Mitch McConnell campaign ad that features his wife touting his long standing support for the Violence Against Women Act.  Ana breaks down all of the falsehoods about these assertions.  The NRA’s latest crazy ad pushes for the blind to have whatever gun they want, in public. Former Israeli ambassador Michael Oren coincidentally lost his ear monitor when Andrea Mitchell asked him about Israel tapping John Kerry’s phone.  The Obama Admin and the Sen Intelligence Panel are at odds over the decision to redact important pieces of info from the torture memos.  So much of it has been redacted that the report doesn’t even make cohesive sense to the reader.
