NDAA under attack in Congress?



The National Defense Authorization Act signed by President Obama on the eve of the New Year has now come to a standstill. Since its genesis, the NDAA has been confronted with heavy criticism claiming the act is unlawful and on Wednesday District Judge Katherine Forrest agreed. The section 1021 calls for the indefinite detention of Americans and as of now is unconstitutional, but late Thursday an amendment to the NDAA ruling was brought forward on the House floor. Tangerine Bolen, executive director for Revolution Truth, joins us to analyze the future of the NDAA.
