Tens of thousands of Egyptian protesters answered the call of the Muslim Brotherhood to march in the streets of Cairo, with reports of clashes breaking out already hitting the news. More than 630 people were killed this week in a massacre that has drawn the attention of the international community. President Obama yesterday canceled a joint military exercise with the Egyptian Army but stopped short of cutting off aid.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/world\/national-security\/nsa-broke-privacy-rules-thousands-of-times-per-year-audit-finds\/2013\/08\/15\/3310e554-05ca-11e3-a07f-49ddc7417125_story.html \">The latest revelation in the NSA\u2019s spying program comes in the form of an exclusive report from the Washington Post this morning.

Dream Defenders, who had received prominent support from the NAACP and celebrities like Harry Belafonte, are pushing the passage of Trayvon\u2019s Law, a three-pronged approach to addressing the conditions that led to the death of Trayvon Martin. <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Uprising\u2019s Friday guest expert Adele Stan, longtime chronicler of the right wing, and senior Washington correspondent for RHRealityCheck.org., analyzes today\u2019s news headlines: Egyptians have convened a \u201cDay of Rage\u201d today in protest of mass killings by the Army this week.
