the, the, you're watching data, you know, is coming to live from berlin. job items campaign faces a nother set back after the us president tested positive for co fit best after a top congressional democrat tells biden to quit his bed for a 2nd term representative. adam shift says he hasn't serious doubts biden, to beat donald trump in november selection. meanwhile, it is full steam ahead of the republican national convention. as donald trump, the vice presidential fix takes to the stage. i stand here and i'm overwhelmed with gratitude. say i officially accept your nomination to be vice president of the united states of america. so what does the ged vance as be to tell us about what

a 2nd trump presidency could hold on our show or so a thunder lion's moment of truth. the leader has made one last speech in strasbourg, appealing to a new lawmakers, to give her a 2nd term of commission precedence. and student protesters take to the streets again and banquet josh of a more violent classes on thursday. and a series of demonstrations that have so far claimed 6 lives. the empire. richardson, thank you so much for joining us. us president joe biden is facing a nother set back in his bid to stay in the white house. the president was forced to pull out of a campaign event after testing positive for cove at 19. the details of his diagnosis were revealed while he was on the campaign trail in las vegas. the white

house says he's only suffering mild symptoms and will self isolate his home in delaware is comes as bite and faces mounting pressure from within his own party to pull out of the presidential race to a prominent democratic lawmaker has become the latest to call on the president to step aside in a statement, adam shift the representative for california praise biden for his work, but said the united states had reached a cross roads. he said, well, it's a choice to withdraw from the campaign as president biden's alone. i believe it is time for him to pass the torch. and in doing so secure his legacy of leadership by allowing us to defeat donald trump in the upcoming election. let's speak to boris for him on for more on this. he's director of politics at bard college for lyn. welcome, adam, shift the latest leading democratic voice to call on joe biden to pull out of the race. does it feel like we are approaching a tipping point here, where it is impossible for biden to continue?

i think we are very much approaching that tip report. i mean we have the public figures like george clooney calling for buy them to step down. we have important top democrats that are making similar, similar insinuations. or you from the point blank are good that he should be reconsidering his bid. so i think we really are approaching the moment where he definitely has to take a decision. of course, that would be a huge gamble, really for the democrats at this stage to replace bite and with somebody else. do you think the way that they are increasingly looking at it is that it is more of a gamble to continue with biden, to know this thing? so, i mean, we're in on charter territory really, and nobody knows what's gonna happen is by them does step down to another candidate . that's a big question. you know how to find another candidate that would be a messy authoration. anyways, the democratic national convention would be an interesting thing to, to look at to say the least. but uh, definitely i think the, um,

their way in their chances. and i think of course there's a big risk involved. but on the other hand, bring someone new young fresh in might also very much create a new type of coming back to me. it's just a paradigm most of the election or is it possible to take a guess at who that replacement might be? could it become a le harris as vice president? yeah, i mean, sure, there's a little debate that's been going on for a couple of weeks now. coming to harris has always been mentioned as somebody could be that person. and to one way to do it, maybe to avoid some of the messing us up in the process would be to try and figure that out to the vice president could step in. but we've also seen a couple of other figures that have been mentioned time reduced and again, a gretchen with merge driven newsome also people the judge is mentioned by some as a potential candidate. and they're all relatively young politicians. that's the

quicker place of biking on the ticket. and looking at how the democrats tend to operate, do you have a sense of which of those might be the most likely? it's very difficult to tell. i mean, maybe a cult camilla hers probably is. the is a compromise, canada because she is already the vice president. i will be difficult to circumvent her. on the other hand, she has been quite a visible during the ministration the during the for 4 years. so some people also mention and emphasize that her popularity of ratings aren't of heights for the other figures. also, it's not very clear how they might, how they might actually, how successful they could be. so it's, it's, it is a bit of a gamble. so it's a tricky situation for the democrats know top force form, and i thank you so much for joining us on the w news. but that analysis is, of course, for one director of politics at the bar to college. berlin and

the setbacks for biden came as donald trump's a running mate, took center stage on the 3rd day of the republican national convention in milwaukee . in a prime time speech, j. d vance told the story of his tough upbringing as he formerly accepted his vice presidential nomination of the 39 year old ohio senator has previously criticized from. but you know, he to praise on the former president and vince also had a message for america's allies around the world. together, we will make sure our allies share in the burden of securing world peace. no more free rides for nations that betray the generosity of the american taxpayer. together, we will send our kids to war only when we must. but as president trump showed with

the elimination devices and so much more when we punch, we're going to punch hard. now events of steered clear of any mention of something called a project 2025. that is a radical offered master plan for a trump presidency that's been written by and thousands of right wing organizations . democrats that say it is a roadmap to a more authoritarian united states project 2025, a nearly 1000 page wish list compiled by the conservative heritage foundation. think tank a blueprint of what they want to see happen if republicans win back control of the white house in january 2025. heritage foundation president kevin roberts says the plan will be nothing short of a 2nd american revolution. so what exactly does project 2025 call for is divided into 4 main pillars. giving the president more power in installing royal backers, defending america's borders and sovereignty declaring the family as the focal point

of american life, and more firmly rooting christian ideology in your society. under the plan, parents would be given greater control over schools and their children's education . a and diversity programs for minorities, including blacks and the l. g. b t q. community would be rolled back publicly. donald trump has distanced himself from project 2025 trumpet posted on social media . i have no idea who is behind it. i disagree with some of the things they're saying and some of the things they're saying are absolutely ridiculous individual. but passages of project 2025 were written by trump allies and are similar to drums own positions like on border security. felix, the democrats, are sounding a lot higher. whereas vale x, x ray mag of republican agenda is to jam trumps project 2025 down the throats of the american people. it's dangerous.

it's desperately. and it's diabolical in milwaukee. republicans will be discussing their party policy proposals, where it will become clear just how much of project 2025 flows into their official campaign platform. let's take a closer look at project 2025 with andrew. we're to leverage a visiting professor at the london school of economics and political science. welcome. as we've heard, trump has distanced himself from project 2025, but j. d. vance has said it contains some good ideas. how much of it do you think could potentially become a reality if they, when to well, it's a very ambitious set of proposals, as you notice, nearly a 1000 pages drawn up by not the trump campaign directly. that's he's trying to distance himself. but nonetheless, trump allies and the whole host, those big tanks,

very much dedicated to the concepts of the 2nd trump presidency. you know, i think a lot of it could become law obviously will depend somewhat on what kind of congress is elected. but the trust of the project really is to move through unilateral action, right? things that congress might not be necessary for and things the deal with a government spending or with presidential power more generally. i think you would in fact see those implement yet tell us more about that. it sounds like it might well fundamentally changed the balance of power in the us government as well. it certainly the whole, you know, congress, of course, i'm sure, even from germany, he's noticed the congress has been fairly useless recently in terms of passing legislation, updating old legislation, which there's like a lot of room for presence of both parties to act. certainly, uh, this agenda would seek to uh, you know, congress as the appropriate in my united states. but this claims that the president

can actually refuse to spend that money. it has a lot of control over the way which crafts, for example, from the federal government would go out to the states and localities to support education, civil rights, other things like that most dramatically. perhaps it really goes after the civil service was one of the things that is true in the us. we have a fair number of political appointees in the federal government, certainly compared to germany or other western democracies. but this blueprint has a way of changing the civil service laws to have tens of thousands of more political appointees. so people who are currently appointed for life because of their expertise, could be fired and replaced with white lists of the president. and that obviously would reshape the federal government quite dramatically, and probably a disturbing way indeed. and i also want to ask you about a report report has looked at a product please point 5 goal of returning to but of course traditional family

values. and that includes, as i understand many things that have been the goals of the hard line, religious. right. can you tell us more about what we can expect there? yeah, i mean donald trump is a very strange vessel for christian evangelical, some in america, given his frankly, a religious background generally. uh and not really a good fit with the new testament in many ways. anyway, you're right though that christian nationalism is a big part of the project 2025. there is a real sense of breaking down the barriers between church and state in the united states. you know the 1st amendment. oh dear, i'm afraid we have lost the audio wine there to andrew rudo, a vision that is andrew to leverage with the london school of economics and political science. speaking to me,

we can turn now to some other world news updates. some 45 heads of government have gathered in oxford. sure. in the u. k. for the european political community summit, the leaders are expected to discuss migration, energy, security, and the threat from russia. the one day some that comes as concerns mount about whether the us would remain a reliable ally under a 2nd to trump presidency. ukrainians have lined the streets to welcome home 95 soldiers who have been returned as part of a prisoner swamp. many of the surface man had been held by russia for more than 2 years. the exchange also is $195.00 russian soldiers being released and returned to moscow. at least 16 people have died in a fire, the shopping center and china, sich one province. the fire broke out at a high rise department store that was undergoing construction work at the time. the place and meters from pacific island countries have released a statement rejecting any unilateral attempt to change the status quote by the

threats or use of force. they made the comments while attending a summit in japan. it comes as china is influence in the pacific continues to grow substantially. this european commission president or so left under lion is facing a vote that quote and her leadership of the you. and if he's are voting on whether to give her a 2nd term in a speech, she said, europe cannot control the world, but the block can work to protect its own democracy. she also said people were deeply concerned about the cost of living environmental issues and of the prospects of war, patricia, and well setting out her program for the next 5 years. she also attacked on gary and prime minister victor, oregon, and his recent unsanctioned trip to moscow europe cannot control dictates us at demagogues across the world. but its can choose to protect its own democracy. 2 weeks ago, a european union prime minister went to moscow this. so called peace mission

was nothing but the peace meant mission. this was the plane appeasement mission will get across to strasbourg and indeed of the use brussels bureau chief alexandra phenomena for more on this. so we heard that were so a funds in july and referencing victor or bon his trip to moscow, which is clearly rattled many in the you. do you think she thought that bringing this off would help for sway of lawmakers to vote for her as well. i think to certain extent that is true because of course was about funding. i knows that the majority of the european parliament has been very critical of victoria. although it's they have been accusing his government of violating fundamental values of the european union for years. and many here were very unhappy with her

decision last year to a gift hungry access to 10000000000 the year of money that's worth frozen under the rule of law concern. so she knew probably that she had to be tough on hungry. at the same time, we have really to say that many he think, including what was about funded line, who is a big support to of ukraine. that's 6 to all on this time. went too far by troubling to most koans aging and for tending the t speaking on behalf of the european union. and indeed, i was under tell us a little bit more about what stood out to you in her speech of the well, i think that in her speech was a lot of fun to lions, notably to great pains to address all the issues, concerns and expectations that were put forward to her by the groups that she expects, that she is hoping that they will back her. she spoke about the green deal, this message, package of policies to tackle climate change. and she said, she said that she's determined to stay the course there. and that was of course

what the greens wanted to hear. but she also said that she would like to reconcile protecting climate protection and, and for service economy. and that is a major concern for her own center, right group and do you work in parliament? she also said that she would like to strengthen europe. so industrial base and competitiveness, and that is lots of liberal when you group one tips to here. and she also said that she is aiming at the point of a new commissioner to deal with the housing crisis that we are seeing across many european countries. and that is an important issue for the european social is. so i think that it was kind of a presidential speech, a that's may resumes with a many lawmakers here, new york empowerment. and if it doesn't, what happens if she loses of the well, she is the only candidate. and if she fails, this is going to to trigger

a major crisis into european union. and the european leaders will needs to come to the, the again and so agree on a new candidate within one months. but then this person with needs to hold talks with the lawmakers and the different political parties here in new york. you can call them and, and that's codes take a while. and so you appear in union would be dealing with the political uncertainty . and that at the very to moultrie, was time when one in ukraine is still raging on the ropes doorstep. thank you so much for your reporting and that is dw alexandra phenomena and it's stressful. i can try and do some other news now. bangladesh has been gripped by another day of protests, a spite universities agreeing to a government request to shop their doors indefinitely. the move was hoped to lower the temperature of the student len protests. but in dhaka, where 6 people have already lost their lives, sadness quickly turned to anger and violence. students and tucker,

mom did the classmates but police possibly disposed of to notice every monday and just stepped up efforts to contain leaks of really demanding equal access to public sector jobs. on the weekends, hooting after the funeral government, they set off down. tonight's class deployment, explosives, and lots of tea. a guy said us, what is the reason for all of this? the registration doesn't want a walk, right. how will the purchase remain peaceful? the government has ordered schools and universities to close indefinitely. dns of protests leaves 6 people dead and many more in judd, the professors and students loyal to the ruling body allow me a to each other, the brakes and bamboo rods that through the private associates i see you know and

showed carpets will be held accountable regardless of good quality because affiliated with j o. r i family, declare that those who carried out murders, looting and find and whoever they are, i will make sure that they will be given the appropriate punishment value or the book or how big and good by high you find employment. the students are pushing for nationwide for this. they are demanding the evolution of the system. that is, of some public sector jobs for the related of war veterans with my mother to make, i make the decisions after killing us. we're ready to die right now. if they want to kill us, they can do it, and we wanted to talk about it. but now that we'll have to make the decisions once we did get that going on with the matters, it goes, you've been pretty darn it has the situation remains dense. rights groups at the united nations have paused, but not these to protect peaceful protest as from all acts of violence and deadly

use of force. i have to tell the reporter be innocent javert here with me in the studio for more on this story. venus give us some background to your why have we seen these protests turned so violent? clear, unless the international affairs that they have authenticated and analyzed eye witnesses account reveals photographic evidence that conforms that on law for police while it was used on the protective. and that the police failed to ensure protection of the students with this or is have also conformed to understand from national that there is a multi or factor of violence by this group on let the structure are leak, which is the student or the affiliated with the government and they said that they, they have seen that the eye witnesses to them and thus high to depart, armed with and brought sticks clubs. some were even holding the why was and they did not discriminate between men and women. they attacked on students. we also

spoke to one of the mean organizers of this protest movement as a friend, what's happened, listened to what he said to cause additional bangladesh as government has used as agitators and security forces to attack our peaceful demonstrations. so far we've been told of 10 deaths and we've been facing mass of attacks for the last 3 days. protesters are being killed. the at the time i was recording this video, students from our private universities for protesting bullets were fired at them. that we came to know that the driver of an ambulance that was transporting 100 students were shot to death. so we didn't really serious claims here. we should say the government is pointing the finger at the opposition behind this. but 1st, can you give us a little bit of context behind these? why is this quote a system so contentious for care? the court system was introduced 1972 by the government of schiffwood to put him on

his father of the confinement associate. christina, and basically at that time the government wanted to support the freedom fighter for a tape on black dish, when independence from parker found an over here this, this system. so many changes, but it's got informed if the court system is implemented. if there's of 56 percent of government jobs, of 4 categories, most of the bulk of it goes to a relative of the, of the faith and fight. that's also women. people with disabilities, people who belong to disadvantage districts. and also indigenous communities. now, of the protest of faith that the protest of faith, it's unfair and, and basically there's a given political gain stupid within party of, i mean, even if it is very interesting is, and many of the students were protesting, ottoman and the system gifts go back to one, but they say that they do not need to score down, so they are, they are raising their voice again fit. and it seems that the government as of now

doesn't seem to change anything yet. so they say as politically advantageous for the government, i suppose what i am still confused about being if maybe you can shed some light on this, the supreme court. they've suspended this court order that had reinstated the quarter system. so why are we still seeing students out protesting? yeah, so simply the students don't trust the government of the casino. they do not believe that the government, it's unfair. so even though the court or the, the, the court or the court does the, the court before the court doesn't. so the, the students believes that the government, because it has, it's a, it, it is, and it is it in the political interest of the living party. so basically they would find a way to keep it implemented. what is also very interesting, if that was men, this protests begin, it was, they were mostly peaceful, but then to the government, actually it doesn't actually, it doesn't actually call this protest does. and as i thought it's a fence system,

useful to, to call people for that, but it does, of buckets done. and that really and good and triggered the students, which eventually we saw elective islands because many of the students believe believe that when jake has enough for them, the storms that, that god or collaborate to some fuckers. and it's actually a good the bunny of districts. i lead the student body supported by the government and made them more violent towards them finish. thank you so much for that important context that as a reporter, vanish and drop it here with me in the studio. we're going to change gears now and get you up to speed with some football news. the buddhist legal season doesn't kick off for another month, but all eyes have been on fire in munich, where a former belgian superstar and manchester city. captain vincent's uh, company held his 1st coaching session with his new team before time premier week winter looking to breathe new life into the embattled bavarian side, which finished with disappointing 3rd last season. there 1st time without a trustee in any decade. his 1st training session featured

of mystery there. that is your news update at this hour from now. i'm glad richardson in berlin. thank you so much for watching the
