Im John Siegenthaler see you here tomorrow night. 8 eastern and 11 eastern. You can get the latest news on aljazeera. Com. Harder to understand how the government is obtaining its evidence in a criminal case. And on that basis to challenge the source ofage investigation. Even as he awaits trial, a website going by silk road 2. 0, with a Dread Pirate Roberts still at the helm is back online, and doing business in drugs. That was al jazeera reporting, now some light on the dark net, documentary filling maker who is making on a project called deep web. Joins us live here from new york, first off, id like to know what you think about this whole issue, how do you think that they caught ross al brick to begin with. Well, just judging from the information thats out there, for anybody, he its if you are using the deep web to remain anonymous, any moment of which you step out from being anonymous you can expose yourself, and he had according to documentation has entered a forum using a more public email address, looking for coding advice. For the silk road, this is all conjecture, but this is what is out there. And that they connected those dots to that person on that forum, using looking for that coding which they then found built into the code of the silk road. Etch using the deep web, is it possible to have anonymity on the bear senate these days . It is possible. The encryption systems the technology is extremely robust, and difficult to crack. Its technology that has been created many decades ago that are at the foundation of the web. I mean the thing we have to remember is that the deep web is not some nefarious thing. It is just a term that accounts for 96 of what is actually on the web. Is anonymous or private. So there is a lot of illegal activity that has been linked to the deep web, is there anything positive out there. Well, yeah, i think it is extremely dangerous to suddenly just say because somebody was allegedly running the service, on the deep web that the deep web is nefarious. It just refers to what it is like saying if you drive down the street that anybody who is behind a closed door in a house is selling drugs. It makes little sense. So i think it is a slippery slope to demonizing the idea of privacy. So what is interesting about the deep web . What is something about it that viewers dont know . I think what is interesting about it, there is an internet that is growing up alongside the what we view as the conventional internet. The web, more accurately. And there are a lot of people who would like to be able to move freely around privately just like you move around your house privately. Without being fully exposed. That doesnt mean you are doing wrong, it means you want to be anonymous. That means there are uses journalists uses it, the government uses it, there are citizens of states that rely on the deep web to communicate freely and not have their communications intercepted by store tin regimes that could hurt them. I would also just say, that i think it is a basic human right to be anonymous and private. And there is an interesting sub culture there, is bit coin an example of that . Yeah, i wouldnt call him a sub culture, i think bit coin is a very legitimate cyber currency. It is used primarily almost fundamentally for legitimate uses. Many many businesses use it just like one would use papal, and it is a more secure form than many other forms. So again, i would be weary of demonizing all of these new technologies just because there are ways of using them for emily sit means. Certainly is interesting though. Bit coin i would think most people have used but there is a very small group of people that use it. And praise it. Alex winter joining us tonight, thank you so much.

About race and higher education. Led by students in michigan and california. A Twitter Campaign we the black Student Union at the university of michigan with the bbum, which stands for being black at the university of michigan went viral this year, as students and alumni shares their experiences at one of the top schools. The tweets cover life in the class and on campus. That Twitter Campaign followed another online credit teak that also went viral, here is a video that was shot by a group of students about the dwindling number of black males at prestigious institutions. And we have more National Championships than we do black male freshman, the evidence the only purpose here is to improve your winning percentage. Just as long a the number on the back of their jersey doesnt fade, and you tell me, i should be proud to be a bruin. But according to professor sander 3. 3 is far too many black kids on his perfectly paved are tar too many black kids. This school is not diverse, just because you put it on a pamphlet. Who publicly opposing affirmative action. The k that can marry our fraction look more than just a second hand on a clock. Its all talk. We have a great panel on this issue tonight, joining me to discuss diversity at public universities. A student, at the university of michigan, who helped start that trend, and also features in the black bruins video is mike, a student at ucla. Thank you so much for joining us. Tyrell, i want to start out with you. Your has gotten so much traction. It is unbelieve. You know, i didnt think that it would blow up. I guess the idea behind it, we wanted to address the tense Racial Climate. And wanted to give black students a platform to voice their experiences get their voices out, and get their voices heard, and listened to. Mike, i want to ask you, tyler brings up the tense Racial Climate there, what about out in california . Yeah. At the university of california los angeles is very very similar. There are not too many black faces and we often feel isolated. Do you feel that that lack of diversity is the root cause . That is certainly something that you bring up, the facts and figures in that video. Yeah the lack of diversity is something that contributes to it. When you look at a lecture hall of 200 people, and there and you are the only one that looks like you, it becomes very difficult to function, because often times you get looks people assume certain things about your character, or where you are from, and theres a lot of societal pressure. So tyrell at your school, the number of black and hispanic students has dropped by a third from 2003, but as we heard it was pointed out at the ucla video, the pamphlets they are always this picture of diversity, looks like a bennieton add. Absolutely is not the reality. Yes, from 2006 to 2012, the black male or the black population at the university of michigan dropped almost 30 , and so yeah, thats where we are getting out with this campaign. For a school that valued diversity so much, that says they value it, we dont see it on campus. So what tweets have you gotten that you think are the most interesting . A few that said that it is not enough just to bring blacks students or any minority students here. You have to nurture these students you have to give them the safe places so they can grow, and i think thats a big thing with the university of michigan. You need no nurture these students and support them. And i think thats the biggest thing we are getting at. Would you agree with that . I definitely agree. Which this bill has provided for us here is a platform to bring up that issue. The lack of black males on campus, and the lack of diversity in general. For methods of outreach that will increase the number of students applying increase the number of students getting in, and ultimately increase the number graduating as well. You brought up an interring point, and you yourself said people assume you are an athlete. Yeah. Often times thats one thing we as black males as ucla and i am dwelling with tyrell at michigan as well, shares is that once you step foot on campus, you always get the question of what sport do you play, or are you an athlete. So gentlemen, either one of you chime in here, what needs to be done in order to make colleges a more diverse place . Isnt that part of the Higher Learning experience. You go there learn a lot, but you are also supposed to learn a lot in the community. From people that may not be from that area you grew up in i think a big thing is universities need to poster interaction of different cultures. What i see a lot with the university of michigan is the black students hanging with the black students. The latinos hanging with latinos. Theres really not a Cross Cultural conversations happening, and i think they need to poster that, especially before before they bring more students here, they need to make sure that they are supporting the students they have here. Final thoughts from you. I think it is a very committed issue that involved k through 12, and involves the university as well. W the University Needs to do is to outreach and once they get on campus, and then to help provide a better campus environment as far as teaching. Other groups. Thats mike over at ucla, and Tyrell Collier with the interesting , if you havent checked it out yet, i encouraging you to do so. Thank you for joining us tonight. Thank you. Well, from the blocking of president ial nominees to the fight over the Affordable Care act, the senate voted to use the so called Nuclear Option to weaken the power of the filibuster. Before the vote both parties pointed the fingers, they blamed each oh for this on going grid lock. Democratic senator majority leader said that too much time has been wasted by filibustering. Senate minority leader, republican Mitch Mcconnell said they are just doing what the democrats started doing years ago. During the congress, the idea has wasted a huge amount of time on obstruction. As a result, the would recollect of this country goes undone. Congress should have passing legislation that protects american families. Instead we are burning wasting hours and days. Is serial filibustering was filibustered by Senate Democrats a record seven times. Serve times. And now they want to blow up the rules because republicans are following a precedent that they themselves set and i might add were following that in a much more modest way than democrats did. Al jazeera White House Correspondent with us now live to talk about the ramifications of this vote. What does this really mean. Well, first of all, it means the president is suddenly free to have his judicial nominations his cabinet nominations, his executive Branch Nominations pretty much sail through with 55 Democrats Holding the significant majority, what does it mean after 2014 when republicans stand an even money chance, well nare mains to be seen. I think we can bet that the republicans wont go wac to the other way. But three judicial nominations for the d. C. Court of appeals obviously a very influential bench, right next to this bidle, on the foot of capitol hill, has been rejected by senate had been filibustered. And i think a lot of republicans have said that the if the is sinking in the polls and they are looking for something else. Judicial nominations is a great way to get your base reinvigorated. So theres a lot going on here. And there are certainly are people pointing that out. Did the president do that to steer the conversation away . People can draw their own conclusions i think. This is a little bit unexpected. And all of a sudden the flags come out, and the podium gets changed and adorned with the seal and theres the president , here is what he said in reaction to todays vote. Todays pattern of obstruction isnt normal. A deliberate effort to obstruct everything, just to refight the results of an elect is not normal. And for the sake of future generations we cant let it become normal. My nominees have waited nearly two and a half times long tore receive yes or no votes than those of president bush. And the ones that do get a envelop generally are confirmed with little of no dissent. So does this mean that things will get done . It is a solution of part of the grid lock. Nominees executive branch nominees are going to sail through in theory. In neary, they have some tricks up their sleeve to come in on the weekends if he really wants to be a hardliner. The big question for those of us at roll call, is will the domes with tempted to take this the next step, and to make it about lemn sleighs as well. There is no reason not to believe that they will if they are tempted to do so. This is an arguably the biggest change in the senate rules in 40 jeers. They took nit a matter of minutes, why not go after legislation as well, the answer probably is because they would rue the day. More than they rued the day of doing this. So is the balance of father really hanging out there . It could swing either way. It wow say 50 50. I think the real question of course, is 2016, and these guys are senators they are already thinking about 2016. If the republicans take the white house, and they take the senate, then they would really go to town. The filibuster was just not that big of a deal, and then everyone started to use it, why did that happen. It has been going on since you can draw back to the end of the cold war, when it started to be heightened. I think when you get wac to the question of lemn sleighs, theres the assault weapons ban, a lot of people were surprised by that, gun control everything from that to the farm bill is stalled. I tend to think that this was more as i mentioned something to stoke up the Political Base in a down time. Coming from democrats and they dont want this to spread over into the regular legislative calendar. You can look at any number of historical around see dents going back 100 years. But it really has dramatically increased over the last several years. What do you think of that . I think probably right. Probably harry reed will resist the temptation to go down the rout, for one thing, to be honest, there isnt much legislation to fight over. I think the farm bill will probably get done, i think there will be an extremely modest almost uno tisble arrangement on the budget that will hardly be worth one side or the other. And were you know it it is super tuesday, and not much after that. There was a real problem with judgeships under this administration, and trying to get people on the bench. There was. I think both sides have statistics to marshal. They say half of all the executive branch and Judicial Branch filibusters that have ever happened have happened under president obama. Thats not really a rebuttable position, the other side has other numbers to come up with. But thats a pretty good number, and pretty unimpeachable. The republicans argument on these d. C. Circuit judges. Is pretty thin argument, which theres not enough work for these people to do. So it is a numbers game, i dont think the public will care about this too much. I think they accept, maybe, i think reid is banking that it will auguster to the argument that at least the democrats are trying to make the place function, and the public is clammoring for funning. With the Approval Rating so bad, really cant get any worse right now, could you guys . I think narcotic of this is where you stand is where you sit on this. And because event leader of congress their views flip flop. White house correspondent, joining us and also David Hawkings the Senior Editor over at roll call, still ahead, a catholic elected to the white house. They said it would never happen, how jfks catholic identity shaped his legacy, that discussion coming up next. Consider this the news of the day plus so much more. We begin with the government shutdown. Answers to the questions no one else will ask. It seems like they cant agree to anything in washington no matter what. Antonio mora, Award Winning and hard hitting. Weve heard you talk about the history of suicide in your family. Theres no status quo, just the bottom line. But, what about buying shares in a professional athlete . Determining using some sort of subjective interpretation of their policy as to whether or not your particular report was actually abusive, because if it doesnt contain language that specifically threatens you directly or is targeted towards you specifically, they may not consider it abuse. They may consider it offensive. And in that case they just recommend that you block that person. I dont want to minimise this, because i mean, theres some really horrible things that are on line, and its not its not just twitter, what has happened through social media and the anonymity of the net is that you see websites, hatefilled websites targetting all sorts of groups, popping up. There has been a huge number of those that exist as well. We find the fault lines that run through communities. The shooting happened about 30 minutes ago. Companies. The remains of the fire are still everywhere here. The powers that be at home and around the world. Not only do they not get compensation but you dont even have to explain why . Well thats exactly what i said. We question authority. So you said we could get access. Thats enough . And those affected. Investigative journalism at its toughest. 50 years ago, president john if kennedy and Jacqueline Kennedy left on a fateful trip to texas. They visited san antonio, fort worth, before heading to dallas. In the year since his assassination, volumes have been written his legacy poured over, and debated. But one thing is for certain, president kennedy changed the role of catholicism. He was the first catholic elected president. Sat down with Cardinal Theodore mccarrick to discuss his legacy, and the evolution of catholicism over the last 50 years. What was it like to have a man who is a catholic as a potential president . Well, it was an interesting moment in the history of our country. Now days when we look back at it it doesnt seem odd at all. But in those days, we knew that we could have catholics in the cabinet, and then we knew we could have senators and governors. I think a lot of us said this would never happen. Why did it seem so impossible. We could look back at my family could look back at the days when on the posters outside of the employment bureaus that words catholics need not apply. It was still around in peoples memory. I think even as i was growing up, this is something that we began to feel was unfair. And so we saw in john kennedy an opportunity to prove that we are great citizens, but also to people who had the karim. He gave that extraordinary speech in houston. He had to stand there and say i believe in the separation of church and state. I remember it happening and i remember some of the Church People saying he may have gone too far. He played down the relationship that a religious man should have to his religious principles. But i think he wanted to make it very clear that they werent elected a man they werent voting for a man because he was catholic, and not voting against him because he is a catholic, but because he is a serve kind of american. Who believed in a certain kind of principles. How did you come to know the kennedys. We had become friendses by arguing not by anything else. But he was an interesting man, who stood what he stood for, and loved the poor. And loved the downtrodden and those who are persecuted or disnated against. That was something he could not abide. And so those are things in the catholic church, hopefully we work for. And certainly making so it clear thats what we work for. Precisely, what do you think of the challenge that pope francis is presenting the American Catholic church . Well, its not just the American Catholic church, it is catholics all over the world who are listening to this extraordinary pope. I think he he challenges us in a very special way. Because he challenges us with the words of the gospel. Someone who is willing to work for the poor, willing to take those people on the periphery and to bring them into the center. To let them know they are loved. To let them know we are in salt darety for them. To the philippines just last week to put ourselves insolidarity with those who have no house, those who have no job. Those who have no hope. They have an opportunity to celebrate some quietly with a group of people, but also with a wrath err large crowd, right in the central area where it is struck most severely. I dont think theres a church in that whole lady which still has a roof on it. And this was the cathedral. It was just finished. They were going to have it re the rededicated towards the end of the month, well, the lord had a different idea, and it has lost twothirds of his roof. And the people were it was raining a bit. It was filled with people who had been hurt. People who had been troubled. Mothers who had lost their children, even the water smashing them out of their arms. They say there are half a Million People without children, extraordinary scene. In the west, immediately the concern is why has god done this to us. And there they give god a break, because they have a deep faith there. They are willing to say, way must pray, we must love god and not lose our faith, not lose our hope in god. Thank you so much for joining us. Thank you for giving me the opportunity. God bless you.
