John Iadarola, Jimmy Dore & Steve Oh hosting. More in depth coverage of Edward Snowden interview with Snowden is given pointing out that whistleblowers throughout history like Daniel Ellsberg have always been falsely accused of placing the United States in grave danger. Snowden also mentioned that the government exploited 9/11 for increasing surveillance programs, has no ties to Russia, and gives the definition to the word patriotism. John Kerry reacts to the interview and answers Edward Snowden's reason for being stuck in Russia and says a true patriot would return to the United States. John Boehner gives his commentary by saying that Edward Snowden is “a traitor”. Peter King piles on with more criticism of Edward Snowden mentioning that the interview was just an “infomercial” and that no one’s rights were violated because of the high scrutiny of our surveillance programs. John Boehner speaks out on upcoming regulations from the EPA on carbon emissions by saying that he is not qualified in debating the science of climate change  and that pursuing regulations on climate change would “destroy the economy”. In 2009, John Boehner mentioned that when “cows do what they do you have more carbon dioxide”. Chris Christie talks about  his weight loss by saying, “he is much smaller now”. The gap between conservative and liberals is growing smaller according to a new Gallup poll in how people identify and label themselves as either “liberal” or “conservative” based on social versus economic issues.
