"content": "\u003cp>FBI Director James Comey lit the fuse Monday on a political time bomb and no one — including him — knows how long it will take to burn or what kind of damage it may cause when it goes off.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comey confirmed to members of Congress that his investigators are looking into possible collusion between the campaign that elected President Trump and the Russian government. In fact, he said, the FBI has been doing so since last July.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The signs had been there, from press reports to the announcement by Attorney General Jeff Sessions that Sessions would recuse himself from any such probe. Now, Comey's disclosure to the House Intelligence Committee removes all doubt that the FBI believes there is sufficient evidence to look into the connections between Trump's onetime political aides and the Kremlin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"KQPVMjjRK5LyUpwEYDYfwrNIeN5W3ZtV\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The case that Russia interfered in the presidential campaign \u003ca href=\"https://www.dni.gov/files/documents/ICA_2017_01.pdf\">has been made\u003c/a> — the U.S. intelligence community laid out an unclassified version in December and then-President Barack Obama responded by \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2016/12/29/507436692/obama-expels-35-diplomats-imposes-retaliatory-sanctions-against-russia-for-hacki\">expelling a group of Russian spies\u003c/a> and sanctioning some of its key officials.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But details about the role Trump's team might have played in the making of that mischief still are murky, and Monday's hearing did not include much explosive new information. In fact, the panel's chairman, California Rep. Devin Nunes — who served on Trump's transition team — and his fellow Republicans spent as much of their time as they could drawing the focus away from the Russian collusion narrative.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The real outrage, Republicans argue, is the leaking of classified information to the \u003cem>Washington Post\u003c/em> and other newspapers, especially the identity of former Lt. Gen. Mike Flynn as having been swept up in U.S. government surveillance of Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Flynn resigned after a brief stint as Trump's national security adviser and has since \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/03/10/519703341/michael-flynn-admits-lobbying-may-have-benefited-turkish-government\">retroactively registered as a foreign agent\u003c/a> for his work representing Turkish interests. Democrats revealed on Friday that \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/03/16/520444056/former-trump-national-security-adviser-was-paid-to-advise-russian-firms\">Flynn had also taken more than $50,000 in payments\u003c/a> from Russian government entities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"ex8AC3J6hjVGY3hWgPivKyjPzRfHnIbE\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats, led by ranking member Adam Schiff, also of California, used their time on Monday to put Trump and the Russians together as closely as possible, including in an \u003ca href=\"http://schiff.house.gov/news/press-releases/intelligence-committee-ranking-member-schiff-opening-statement-during-hearing-on-russian-active-measures\">extended opening statement\u003c/a> by Schiff that laid out his theory of the case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Much of Schiff's statement, however, relied on information that's already publicly available or which has been called into question. Monday's session did not include major new details about the alleged ways that the Trump camp may have worked with the Russian intelligence services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it did raise new questions about the imbroglio — some of which lawmakers may answer at a second session now scheduled for March 28, and some of which might not be cleared up until the FBI announces the results of its investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>1. How much evidence is still to be discovered? And how reliable is what's now public?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Schiff crafted a narrative about the Russians' first exploration of the presidential candidates to a critical period from July to August of 2016. If Moscow began by trying simply to learn more about the potential next U.S. president, it shifted to trying to hurt the likely Democratic nominee, Hillary Clinton, and then helping her opponent — or so the argument goes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schiff relied on information that has appeared in press reports and some that appears in a controversial dossier passed from a former British intelligence officer to Comey by Arizona Sen. John McCain. NPR and other news organizations \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/ombudsman/2017/01/13/509563890/the-thinking-behind-nprs-reporting-on-the-trump-dossier\">have refrained from reporting such details\u003c/a> because of the unknown provenance of the dossier — but does Schiff's use of it in the public hearing indicate that at least some of the information has been verified?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Democrats' case also rests on conversations between Trump advisers and people connected to the Russian military intelligence service, the GRU, or other top Russians. But how much more detail exists about what was said in those meetings? How much effort are congressional or FBI investigators making to interview Trump's campaign advisers?\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>2. Might Trump aides have colluded with Russia without knowing it?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>One new thread that emerged from Monday's hearing came as part of an exchange between Comey and Illinois Democrat Mike Quigley, who asked whether it's possible for Americans to help a foreign power and not know about it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yes, Comey answered cautiously — an American might give information to someone he legitimately believes is a Chinese researcher and isn't aware is actually a Chinese intelligence officer. Or an American might fall in love with someone and not realize he or she is in a relationship with a foreign agent: \"Romance could be a feature,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That could explain denials by people at the center of the Trump-Russia imbroglio, including former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort, who resigned after reports about his connections to pro-Kremlin government factions in Ukraine. The \u003cem>New York Times\u003c/em> referred to Manafort \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/14/us/politics/russia-intelligence-communications-trump.html?_r=0\">in a story in February\u003c/a> about U.S. intelligence officials documenting many alleged connections between the Trump camp and the Russians.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Manafort called the report \"absurd\" \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/14/us/politics/russia-intelligence-communications-trump.html?_r=0\">and told the newspaper\u003c/a>: \"It's not like these people wear badges that say, 'I'm a Russian intelligence officer.' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Manafort's comment caused head-scratching at the time it appeared, but Comey and Quigley's exchange on Monday created the prospect for a story about Russia not necessarily using Trump campaign aides as agents but as dupes.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>3. What did Trump know — and when did he know it?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>If Comey's investigation results in no charges or new information about ties between Trump's camp and Russia, the White House would get rid of an albatross that has been around its neck for months. But if the FBI charges former Trump campaign officials, or reveals links between the Trump camp that haven't already been aired publicly, that could escalate quickly and land the president or his top campaign aides in hot water.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump never retreats and never apologizes, and so far has mounted a brash defense. He flits between sometimes acknowledging the Russian mischief during the presidential race and sometimes dismissing it as a fiction created by Democrats to excuse their loss. That strategy has continued to be workable, and Republican aides on Capitol Hill have shown continued willingness to carry water for the White House in responding to press reports or handling inquiries like those on Monday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But charges against Trump aides, or new revelations about collusion between the campaign and Russian agents, would change all that — and fast. Democrats may never forgive Comey for revealing just before Election Day that the FBI had resumed some inquiries into Hillary Clinton's private email server, which Clinton and Democrats say threw a close election to Trump. Now the president, the White House and their Republican allies on Capitol Hill are under a similar Sword of Damocles.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>4. How will Russia respond to the investigations and their outcome?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Comey, National Security Agency Director Michael Rogers and other top U.S. intelligence officials have taken care not to say whether they believe Russia succeeded in influencing the outcome of the 2016 election — only that they're confident Moscow conducted an influence campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Will Russian President Vladimir Putin turn out to have invested wisely or to have been the dog that caught the car? If Putin wanted the U.S. to relax the Obama-era sanctions imposed after Russia's invasion of Ukraine, that ship may have sailed — the scrutiny of Trump's connections to Moscow may have now made even the appearance of any deal impossible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And American military deployments in Eastern Europe, including of armored units along NATO's frontier with Russia and of ships and aircraft in the Black Sea, have continued.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>None of this means, however, that Putin is finished meddling in American politics, Comey warned. He told members of Congress on Monday that the Russians, for their own purposes, likely are satisfied with their work — having sowed confusion and undercut faith in the U.S. democratic process — and may try it again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We have to assume they're coming back,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

In fact, he said, the FBI has been doing so since last July.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The signs had been there, from press reports to the announcement by Attorney General Jeff Sessions that Sessions would recuse himself from any such probe.

In fact, the panel's chairman, California Rep. Devin Nunes — who served on Trump's transition team — and his fellow Republicans spent as much of their time as they could drawing the focus away from the Russian collusion narrative.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The real outrage, Republicans argue, is the leaking of classified information to the \u003cem>Washington Post\u003c/em> and other newspapers, especially the identity of former Lt. Gen. Mike Flynn as having been swept up in U.S. government surveillance of Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Flynn resigned after a brief stint as Trump's national security adviser and has since \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/03/10/519703341/michael-flynn-admits-lobbying-may-have-benefited-turkish-government\">retroactively registered as a foreign agent\u003c/a> for his work representing Turkish interests. Democrats revealed on Friday that \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/03/16/520444056/former-trump-national-security-adviser-was-paid-to-advise-russian-firms\">Flynn had also taken more than $50,000 in payments\u003c/a> from Russian government entities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats, led by ranking member Adam Schiff, also of California, used their time on Monday to put Trump and the Russians together as closely as possible, including in an \u003ca href=\"http://schiff.house.gov/news/press-releases/intelligence-committee-ranking-member-schiff-opening-statement-during-hearing-on-russian-active-measures\">extended opening statement\u003c/a> by Schiff that laid out his theory of the case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Much of Schiff's statement, however, relied on information that's already publicly available or which has been called into question. Monday's session did not include major new details about the alleged ways that the Trump camp may have worked with the Russian intelligence services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it did raise new questions about the imbroglio — some of which lawmakers may answer at a second session now scheduled for March 28, and some of which might not be cleared up until the FBI announces the results of its investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>1. How much evidence is still to be discovered? And how reliable is what's now public?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Schiff crafted a narrative about the Russians' first exploration of the presidential candidates to a critical period from July to August of 2016. If Moscow began by trying simply to learn more about the potential next U.S. president, it shifted to trying to hurt the likely Democratic nominee, Hillary Clinton, and then helping her opponent — or so the argument goes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schiff relied on information that has appeared in press reports and some that appears in a controversial dossier passed from a former British intelligence officer to Comey by Arizona Sen. John McCain. NPR and other news organizations \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/ombudsman/2017/01/13/509563890/the-thinking-behind-nprs-reporting-on-the-trump-dossier\">have refrained from reporting such details\u003c/a> because of the unknown provenance of the dossier — but does Schiff's use of it in the public hearing indicate that at least some of the information has been verified?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Democrats' case also rests on conversations between Trump advisers and people connected to the Russian military intelligence service, the GRU, or other top Russians. But how much more detail exists about what was said in those meetings? How much effort are congressional or FBI investigators making to interview Trump's campaign advisers?\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>2. Might Trump aides have colluded with Russia without knowing it?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>One new thread that emerged from Monday's hearing came as part of an exchange between Comey and Illinois Democrat Mike Quigley, who asked whether it's possible for Americans to help a foreign power and not know about it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yes, Comey answered cautiously — an American might give information to someone he legitimately believes is a Chinese researcher and isn't aware is actually a Chinese intelligence officer. Or an American might fall in love with someone and not realize he or she is in a relationship with a foreign agent: \"Romance could be a feature,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That could explain denials by people at the center of the Trump-Russia imbroglio, including former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort, who resigned after reports about his connections to pro-Kremlin government factions in Ukraine. The \u003cem>New York Times\u003c/em> referred to Manafort \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/14/us/politics/russia-intelligence-communications-trump.html?_r=0\">in a story in February\u003c/a> about U.S. intelligence officials documenting many alleged connections between the Trump camp and the Russians.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Manafort called the report \"absurd\" \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/14/us/politics/russia-intelligence-communications-trump.html?_r=0\">and told the newspaper\u003c/a>: \"It's not like these people wear badges that say, 'I'm a Russian intelligence officer.' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Manafort's comment caused head-scratching at the time it appeared, but Comey and Quigley's exchange on Monday created the prospect for a story about Russia not necessarily using Trump campaign aides as agents but as dupes.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>3. What did Trump know — and when did he know it?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>If Comey's investigation results in no charges or new information about ties between Trump's camp and Russia, the White House would get rid of an albatross that has been around its neck for months. But if the FBI charges former Trump campaign officials, or reveals links between the Trump camp that haven't already been aired publicly, that could escalate quickly and land the president or his top campaign aides in hot water.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump never retreats and never apologizes, and so far has mounted a brash defense. He flits between sometimes acknowledging the Russian mischief during the presidential race and sometimes dismissing it as a fiction created by Democrats to excuse their loss. That strategy has continued to be workable, and Republican aides on Capitol Hill have shown continued willingness to carry water for the White House in responding to press reports or handling inquiries like those on Monday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But charges against Trump aides, or new revelations about collusion between the campaign and Russian agents, would change all that — and fast. Democrats may never forgive Comey for revealing just before Election Day that the FBI had resumed some inquiries into Hillary Clinton's private email server, which Clinton and Democrats say threw a close election to Trump. Now the president, the White House and their Republican allies on Capitol Hill are under a similar Sword of Damocles.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>4. How will Russia respond to the investigations and their outcome?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Comey, National Security Agency Director Michael Rogers and other top U.S. intelligence officials have taken care not to say whether they believe Russia succeeded in influencing the outcome of the 2016 election — only that they're confident Moscow conducted an influence campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Will Russian President Vladimir Putin turn out to have invested wisely or to have been the dog that caught the car? If Putin wanted the U.S. to relax the Obama-era sanctions imposed after Russia's invasion of Ukraine, that ship may have sailed — the scrutiny of Trump's connections to Moscow may have now made even the appearance of any deal impossible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And American military deployments in Eastern Europe, including of armored units along NATO's frontier with Russia and of ships and aircraft in the Black Sea, have continued.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>None of this means, however, that Putin is finished meddling in American politics, Comey warned. He told members of Congress on Monday that the Russians, for their own purposes, likely are satisfied with their work — having sowed confusion and undercut faith in the U.S. democratic process — and may try it again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Robart — who blocked much of the White House's first travel ban last month — held a hearing at 5 p.m. ET in Seattle. The case was brought by four citizens or permanent residents in Washington who argue that access to visas for their family members would be disrupted by the revised travel ban.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Robart has already ruled against the Trump administration once before; his ruling was later upheld by the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. Rather than defend its original travel ban, the Trump administration replaced it with a new one that the White House argues is \"substantially different.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The revised executive order temporarily blocks entry by travelers from six mostly Muslim countries, not seven. (Iraq was dropped from the list.) And the new order makes clear that it doesn't apply to lawful permanent residents, also known as green card holders, or to people holding valid visas issued before the ban takes effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But those changes aren't enough to satisfy Washington state and Minnesota, which brought the challenge to the original travel ban. Washington Attorney General Bob Ferguson — along with his counterparts from New York, California, Maryland, Massachusetts and Oregon — asked the court to extend its injunction to block the new order, as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"What we're looking at is what Donald Trump said when he was running for president,\" Ferguson told NPR's \u003cem>Morning Edition\u003c/em>. \"He said he wanted to create a Muslim ban.\" Ferguson argues that's \"strong evidence that the intent behind these executive orders was actually less about national security and more about a Muslim ban.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's a charge the White House denies. Lawyers for the Department of Justice say the president has broad authority when it comes to border security. And they say the 90-day travel ban is needed to shore up vetting procedures from six countries that either are state sponsors of terrorism or have harbored terrorists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Maryland\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two refugee rights groups are challenging the revised travel ban in Maryland with help from the American Civil Liberties Union and the National Immigration Law Center. They're asking the court to block the second travel ban order \"in its entirety.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Department of Justice lawyer Jeffrey Wall argued that the executive order \"doesn't say anything about religion\" and \"doesn't send a religious message.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the plaintiffs say this is a Muslim ban, like Trump proposed on the campaign trail. Lee Gelernt of the ACLU tells NPR that the context of the order, including Trump's campaign statements, should be considered and makes the order's intent clear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The purpose of this was to ban Muslims and we are hopeful that the judge, like other courts, will ... not turn a blind eye to what's happening — that the administration just made certain tweaks to get around a court order but still has the same policy purpose,\" Gelernt said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>U.S. District Judge Theodore Chuang said he would rule soon, but not necessarily Wednesday.\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like the original travel ban, the revised version suspends the U.S. refugee program for 120 days. It also cuts the number of refugees the U.S. will accept this year by more than half, from 110,000 to 50,000.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are some changes, as well. Refugees from Syria are no longer banned indefinitely. And the revised order drops language that was intended to favor religious minorities, which Trump signaled would apply to persecuted Christians from the Middle East.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the White House announced the second travel ban last week, Attorney General Jeff Sessions offered some new support for the temporary freeze on refugee resettlement. \"More than 300 people who came here as refugees are under FBI investigation for potential terrorism-related activities,\" Sessions said. But the Department of Justice declined to provide further information about the nature of those cases or which countries those refugees came from.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Refugee resettlement organizations argue that there's no legitimate reason for the ban. They say it would cause lasting harm to them and the people they assist.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's not just about picking up refugees at the airport,\" said Mark Hetfield, CEO of HIAS, one of the nine major resettlement agencies and a plaintiff in the Maryland case. On a conference call with reporters, Hetfield said that agencies like his offer a range of services, such as help locating and furnishing apartments, finding a job and getting kids signed up for school. If the refugee program is suspended, Hetfield says, it will be \"very difficult to get things going again.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Hawaii\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The third hearing is scheduled at 3:30 p.m. ET in Hawaii, in a case brought by the state of Hawaii and a local imam. As in the other cases, lawyers argue that the travel ban discriminates against Muslims. They say the executive order would harm the economy of Hawaii by disrupting tourism and educational institutions that depend on tuition from foreign students.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Department of Justice rejects that claim as speculation. A DOJ lawyer argued that the travel ban is based on nationality, not religion, and therefore is perfectly legal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The judge in Hawaii has said that he will issue a ruling before midnight ET.\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are also a handful of cases challenging the revised travel ban in other parts of the country, including Wisconsin, Virginia, and\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>California. \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

Most Republicans on the record support the bill, but a large group of the most conservative members are vehemently opposed to the legislation, arguing that it's not a sufficient repeal of Obamacare. A smaller group of Republicans, primarily in the Senate, are concerned that bill will result in many residents of their states losing coverage via Medicaid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Democrats are almost universally opposed, a small group of Democrats in districts won by Trump last November have struck a more equivocal tone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"headTitle": "The California Report | KQED News",
"content": "\u003cp>WikiLeaks has released thousands of files that it identifies as CIA documents related to the agency's cyberespionage tools and programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The documents published on Tuesday include instruction manuals, support documents, notes and conversations about, among other things, efforts to exploit vulnerabilities in smartphones and turn smart TVs into listening devices. The tools appear to be designed for use against individual targets, as part of the CIA's mandate to gather foreign intelligence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A CIA spokesperson would not confirm whether the documents were genuine, telling NPR, \"We do not comment on the authenticity or content of purported intelligence documents.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former CIA Director Michael Hayden told MSNBC that if Wikileaks' account was true, the document dump would be \"very, very damaging.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And the anti-secrecy site says there's more to come: WikiLeaks has dubbed Tuesday's release \"Year Zero,\" saying it is the first of a series of CIA-related leaks that the site is collectively calling \"Vault 7.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nicholas Weaver, a computer scientist at the University of California at Berkeley, says the documents don't seem to reveal significant news about the CIA's capabilities — \"it's describing a hacking organization that's doing a reasonably good job,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What \u003cem>is \u003c/em>surprising is that the documents are being published.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement accompanying the document release, WikiLeaks alleges that the CIA has recently \"lost control of the majority of its hacking arsenal,\" and that an archive with \"several hundred million lines of code\" has been circulating among former government hackers. One former government hacker or contractor gave a portion of that code to WikiLeaks, according to the organization.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Weaver calls that story \"implausible,\" and raises the possibility that someone from outside the U.S. government compromised the CIA's systems to acquire the documents. And that, he says, would be a big deal: \"Spies gonna spy, that's dog bites man. Spy dumps data on Wikileaks, proving that they exfiltrated it from a top-secret system? That's man bites dog.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Regardless of how they were acquired, the documents in the \"Year Zero\" release do not include the code for any cyberespionage programs. In its press release, Wikileaks says it is \"avoiding the distribution of \"armed' cyberweapons until a consensus emerges\" on how to analyze and disarm such weapons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, the purported CIA documents reference and describe agency tools designed to extract information from computers, monitor communications and control electronic devices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WikiLeaks says the files came from the CIA's internal Confluence system — a platform for team collaboration. They include instructions on how to use programs, and guides describing how to reduce the risk of CIA involvement being detected in a program. Some pages have comments from users whose names have been redacted, but appear to be software developers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The alleged CIA documents show techniques developed specifically for \"embedded systems\" — which the files describe, in nontechnical terms, as \"the Things in the Internet of Things.\" Think devices that don't look like computers, but use the Internet to work. For instance, one program uses a Samsung TV as a listening device, turning the microphone on while the TV appears to be off.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The documents also appear to show techniques the CIA has used to compromise and control individual smartphones.

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nicholas Weaver, a computer scientist at the University of California at Berkeley, says the documents don't seem to reveal significant news about the CIA's capabilities — \"it's describing a hacking organization that's doing a reasonably good job,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What \u003cem>is \u003c/em>surprising is that the documents are being published.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement accompanying the document release, WikiLeaks alleges that the CIA has recently \"lost control of the majority of its hacking arsenal,\" and that an archive with \"several hundred million lines of code\" has been circulating among former government hackers. One former government hacker or contractor gave a portion of that code to WikiLeaks, according to the organization.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Weaver calls that story \"implausible,\" and raises the possibility that someone from outside the U.S. government compromised the CIA's systems to acquire the documents. And that, he says, would be a big deal: \"Spies gonna spy, that's dog bites man. Spy dumps data on Wikileaks, proving that they exfiltrated it from a top-secret system? That's man bites dog.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Regardless of how they were acquired, the documents in the \"Year Zero\" release do not include the code for any cyberespionage programs. In its press release, Wikileaks says it is \"avoiding the distribution of \"armed' cyberweapons until a consensus emerges\" on how to analyze and disarm such weapons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, the purported CIA documents reference and describe agency tools designed to extract information from computers, monitor communications and control electronic devices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WikiLeaks says the files came from the CIA's internal Confluence system — a platform for team collaboration. They include instructions on how to use programs, and guides describing how to reduce the risk of CIA involvement being detected in a program. Some pages have comments from users whose names have been redacted, but appear to be software developers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The alleged CIA documents show techniques developed specifically for \"embedded systems\" — which the files describe, in nontechnical terms, as \"the Things in the Internet of Things.\" Think devices that don't look like computers, but use the Internet to work. For instance, one program uses a Samsung TV as a listening device, turning the microphone on while the TV appears to be off.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The documents also appear to show techniques the CIA has used to compromise and control individual smartphones. Wikipedia notes that such tactics would allow the agency to read even encrypted communications — but Weaver says that's misleading.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The real story on encryption is not, 'Oh my God, the CIA breaks encryption,' but that encryption is so good that the CIA has to risk $1.5 million assets to compromise a target's iPhone if they want to read his messages,\" he says, noting the high price of developing smartphone-infiltrating techniques.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There's another concern about the methods that the CIA used to compromise phones.

"headTitle": "The California Report | KQED News",
"content": "\u003cp>President Trump has signed a new executive order blocking visas from being issued to citizens of six majority-Muslim countries to replace a controversial, now-suspended executive order known as the travel ban.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like the initial order signed Jan. 27, the new executive order blocks arrivals from specific majority-Muslim countries and suspends the entire refugee program for 120 days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unlike the original order, the ban announced Monday no longer includes Iraq, explicitly doesn't apply to lawful permanent residents (green card holders) or existing visa holders, and will have a delayed implementation — going into effect at 12:01 a.m. ET on March 16. Syrian refugees are not banned indefinitely, like they were in the Jan. 27 order, and refugees already formally scheduled for travel to the U.S. will be permitted to enter the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to a fact sheet, the new order will block people traveling from Sudan, Syria, Iran, Libya, Somalia and Yemen. Iraq is no longer included because the country has pledged to \"increase cooperation with the U.S.\" and share more information about its citizens.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A senior administration official told reporters that Iraq has also agreed to the \"timely repatriation\" of Iraqi citizens in the U.S. who are slated for deportation. As of last summer, Iraq was \u003ca href=\"https://www.dhs.gov/news/2016/07/14/written-testimony-ice-house-committee-oversight-and-government-reform-hearing-titled\" target=\"_blank\">one of 23 countries\u003c/a> considered \"recalcitrant\" for refusing to cooperate with the U.S. in deporting their citizens. Some countries on that list, including Iran and Libya, are affected by the visa ban; most are not.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Administration officials left open the possibility that other countries could be added to future visa bans, or that countries currently on the list could be removed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new order has a delayed implementation, designed to avoid the chaotic situation created by the initial order with people in transit when their visas were nullified.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It also omits a section about prioritizing refugees of minority religions — the part of the initial order that, as NPR's Domenico Montanaro has \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/01/31/512439121/trumps-executive-order-on-immigration-annotated\" target=\"_blank\">reported\u003c/a>, \"indicates prioritizing Christians,\" and was one reason the order was challenged as a form of \"Muslim ban.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The White House continues to defend the first order as legal and appropriate, even as it's being replaced by the new order.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That original order prompted chaos at airports and inspired protests — and dozens of lawsuits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The suits were filed by \"doctors, professors, students, people fleeing violence and Iraqis who have worked for the U.S. military,\" as NPR's Joel Rose and journalist Parker Yesko \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/02/02/513045408/after-2-weeks-in-office-trump-faces-more-than-50-lawsuits\" target=\"_blank\">reported last month\u003c/a>. They continued:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"Some [of the plaintiffs] were detained in American airports for hours over the weekend; others were barred overseas from boarding planes bound for the U.S. Two Syrian brothers with visas to enter the country say they were turned around at Philadelphia International Airport and sent back to Damascus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Human rights organizations and attorneys general in five states jumped aboard some of the suits, and their lists of legal grievances were long. They alleged violations of the First, Fifth and 14th Amendments, which guarantee religious equality, due process and equal protection under the law, as well as denials of asylum and discriminatory visa processing.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>One of the suits, brought by the state of Washington and joined by the state of Minnesota, prompted a federal judge to issue \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/02/03/513306413/state-department-says-fewer-than-60-000-visas-revoked-under-travel-order\">a nationwide temporary stay\u003c/a> of Trump's executive order.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Department of Justice challenged the stay in an appeals court, but a panel of three judges upheld the judge's decision. As a result, the initial executive order has not been in effect for more than a month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new order is intended to address \"many of the court's concerns,\" according to an administration official. But it's not likely to be the end of legal challenges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think everyone -- and I assume the government as well -- expects that there will be a new round of litigation,\" Omar Jadwat, director of the Immigrants' Rights Project at the ACLU, told NPR before the new order was released.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Concerns about the travel ban will continue \"whether they're repackaged in a new order or not,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, the issuance of a \u003cem>new \u003c/em>executive order doesn't spell the end of lawsuits against the \u003cem>old \u003c/em>order.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White House press secretary Sean Spicer has repeatedly said the administration plans follow a \"dual track\" strategy of continuing to defend the old order from legal challenges even as a new order replaces it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But a senior official at the Department of Justice told reporters on Monday that the DOJ believes the new order will make a majority of the pending cases moot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Judges might not necessarily be persuaded by the Justice Department's arguments on that front, says Catherine Kim, a law professor at the University of North Carolina Law School. She joined other law professors in signing an amicus brief against Trump's initial order, and spoke to NPR before the new order was announced.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even for cases where the original complaint is no longer an issue under the new order — like, for instance, a case involving a legal permanent resident — \"the courts may be worried that as soon as the case is dismissed the administration would just go back and reissue the [original] executive order,\" Kim says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other, broader challenges to the original order could apply equally to the new order, she says — such as the allegation that the order was \"done in bad faith,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't think that there is anything that the new executive order could do to address concerns raised by the courts [that] this was really motivated by animus, not by national security concerns,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Trump administration maintains that it will eventually triumph in the legal battle over the original executive action, based on the president's broad authority on immigration issues. Some legal scholars, \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/02/11/514650883/legal-scholar-alan-dershowitz-on-9th-circuit-decision\" target=\"_blank\">including Alan Dershowitz\u003c/a>, believe the administration could win at least a partial victory on those grounds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't think the ban is unconstitutional as it affects a family in Yemen who has had no contact with the United States and simply applies for a tourist visa to come see the Statue of Liberty,\" he told NPR in early February. But, Dershowitz said, other elements of the ban — especially the initial interpretation that it applied to green card holders — are harder to defend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The issue could eventually end up before the U.S. Supreme Court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2017 NPR.

Syrian refugees are not banned indefinitely, like they were in the Jan. 27 order, and refugees already formally scheduled for travel to the U.S. will be permitted to enter the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to a fact sheet, the new order will block people traveling from Sudan, Syria, Iran, Libya, Somalia and Yemen. Iraq is no longer included because the country has pledged to \"increase cooperation with the U.S.\" and share more information about its citizens.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A senior administration official told reporters that Iraq has also agreed to the \"timely repatriation\" of Iraqi citizens in the U.S. who are slated for deportation. As of last summer, Iraq was \u003ca href=\"https://www.dhs.gov/news/2016/07/14/written-testimony-ice-house-committee-oversight-and-government-reform-hearing-titled\" target=\"_blank\">one of 23 countries\u003c/a> considered \"recalcitrant\" for refusing to cooperate with the U.S. in deporting their citizens. Some countries on that list, including Iran and Libya, are affected by the visa ban; most are not.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

They continued:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"Some [of the plaintiffs] were detained in American airports for hours over the weekend; others were barred overseas from boarding planes bound for the U.S. Two Syrian brothers with visas to enter the country say they were turned around at Philadelphia International Airport and sent back to Damascus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Human rights organizations and attorneys general in five states jumped aboard some of the suits, and their lists of legal grievances were long. They alleged violations of the First, Fifth and 14th Amendments, which guarantee religious equality, due process and equal protection under the law, as well as denials of asylum and discriminatory visa processing.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>One of the suits, brought by the state of Washington and joined by the state of Minnesota, prompted a federal judge to issue \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/02/03/513306413/state-department-says-fewer-than-60-000-visas-revoked-under-travel-order\">a nationwide temporary stay\u003c/a> of Trump's executive order.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Department of Justice challenged the stay in an appeals court, but a panel of three judges upheld the judge's decision. As a result, the initial executive order has not been in effect for more than a month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new order is intended to address \"many of the court's concerns,\" according to an administration official. But it's not likely to be the end of legal challenges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think everyone -- and I assume the government as well -- expects that there will be a new round of litigation,\" Omar Jadwat, director of the Immigrants' Rights Project at the ACLU, told NPR before the new order was released.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Concerns about the travel ban will continue \"whether they're repackaged in a new order or not,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, the issuance of a \u003cem>new \u003c/em>executive order doesn't spell the end of lawsuits against the \u003cem>old \u003c/em>order.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White House press secretary Sean Spicer has repeatedly said the administration plans follow a \"dual track\" strategy of continuing to defend the old order from legal challenges even as a new order replaces it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But a senior official at the Department of Justice told reporters on Monday that the DOJ believes the new order will make a majority of the pending cases moot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Judges might not necessarily be persuaded by the Justice Department's arguments on that front, says Catherine Kim, a law professor at the University of North Carolina Law School. She joined other law professors in signing an amicus brief against Trump's initial order, and spoke to NPR before the new order was announced.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even for cases where the original complaint is no longer an issue under the new order — like, for instance, a case involving a legal permanent resident — \"the courts may be worried that as soon as the case is dismissed the administration would just go back and reissue the [original] executive order,\" Kim says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other, broader challenges to the original order could apply equally to the new order, she says — such as the allegation that the order was \"done in bad faith,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't think that there is anything that the new executive order could do to address concerns raised by the courts [that] this was really motivated by animus, not by national security concerns,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Trump administration maintains that it will eventually triumph in the legal battle over the original executive action, based on the president's broad authority on immigration issues. Some legal scholars, \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/02/11/514650883/legal-scholar-alan-dershowitz-on-9th-circuit-decision\" target=\"_blank\">including Alan Dershowitz\u003c/a>, believe the administration could win at least a partial victory on those grounds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't think the ban is unconstitutional as it affects a family in Yemen who has had no contact with the United States and simply applies for a tourist visa to come see the Statue of Liberty,\" he told NPR in early February. But, Dershowitz said, other elements of the ban — especially the initial interpretation that it applied to green card holders — are harder to defend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The issue could eventually end up before the U.S. Supreme Court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

When asked about whether the attorney general should recuse himself, Trump responded, \"I don't think so.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sessions clarified, in the statement however, that the \"announcement should not be interpreted as confirmation of the existence of any investigation or suggestive of the scope of any such investigation\" and reiterated that he has \"taken no actions regarding any such matters, to the extent they exist.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If any investigation does move forward, however, Acting Deputy Attorney General and U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia Dane Boente will oversee those matters.
