2:09 am
a few days of chaos and divide as president willing to have subject to the textbook while addressing the nation for the 2nd time. since the quote is broke out to the present state, so that changes data has reduced by a tremendous amount. if it says it has become quite evident that to members of the public still exist on the need for him to make more positions, she runs a government, but he also needs to feel when the people are spoken. those are some of his words asked me to see that she will not be signing the boat and to move what do you mean by this city? became in part of it costs to be controversial, fine. and so what's what have increased the taxes and price is a face of goods and as a social items following that protest of rock to the capital of no b and police open fire on crowds around parliament, some protest as even menace to enter upon them. and the
2:10 am
also bald to keep their demonstrations going until the high schools and i missed those classes with and to ride police in the capital off can yeah, the medical association even confirm that at least 13 people have been killed in that protest. the move by the president could be seen as an attempt to try and de escalate attention. but essentially the presence is kenya as in paul to listen it states but, and we have pete. can those to be here the that that are the word and try to for us as the own government make a maiden last name. spellman, a $500000000.00 us last week today, found out that by the 5th of october and we had the name
2:11 am
of our country in front of the difficult part of that. that full really aimed to introduce unpopular attached proposals that to uh, the reason for so much and uh plus the license. the proposal consisted off with tax increases on monetize digital content creation. tax increases on digital payments, less than transfers and digital money payments, which will take increases on braid and visible. and those are particularly hard teaching in the country this quest reliant on the mobile money. and this is the reaction from some of those citizens. we are here to the, to the problem. we want to walk you through this one is the pause this finance bill. there will be demonstrations every day until the government gives us accountability to follow taxes. we just want them to be accountable for the grading on this case. i'm to the
2:12 am
government the government who's kind of here to help people who are not. we're not even close to the president tech. this. the constant tax increases in can you one of the many reasons why divide and administrating the i am, if and i, the international financial institutions were quite happy with princeton's mutual. at the same time, he has been forced to clean the competing demands of linda, such as the item april, which have it's the government of kenya. to cut this, this is to obtain more financing any hard to push the population. so it will be quite interesting to see and yeah, how deluxe. so if the, if a move app to, to this move, the canyon president also said the government will adopt us the already measures to slash spending. that includes the travel and hospitality sector as well as vehicle purchases ahead of william root has addressed mass protest spread across the east
2:13 am
african nation as well. this, but it is from the western city of no clue where demonstrators tried to enter the state house. police report of late use tear gas canisters to this 1st crowd as they attempted to block the roads and hindered traffic. several people died from injuries sustained in the clashes. protesters could be seen that carrying the body of a person reportedly shocked by security forces. well, he spoke to booker, i'm only who's the national vice chairman of the communist party of kenya. he says, i am f and the world bank, which continued to pressure kenya to implement the controversial fiscal reforms. there's alternate responsibility for the violence as really mem, uh many of our comrades that might say yes to be in the streets. we must make it clear that they have a lot is in their hands. so i am in one thing that continued to
2:14 am
impose them for this is on the email, sends king and population be i am historically or we probably want to quote interest not just to qualify you know, loans and sustainable, but also use the leverage in terms of the financial capital to dictate our international, our internal affairs, and even to use them to my new belief. but it's probably just december, i am made sure that we don't wait for them to do that. elation 11. our investing news was actually q one is did one enterprises in this country is one form that i am
2:15 am
a fund allotment for this. so this use of as to for the uh, for the, for the united states and neo colonial. it has to be understood that even though there is a solution that the item is not biased because of the use of the file design and telephone lines. our lead us to implement unemployed people on the table of purchases. but yesterday, be very low, non violence from the assault fall, it technique was actually exposed to discrete. so i am, you know, on the tv on, i'm from, it's the story called a behavior. it's under the colonial. um, because it is that's the $1.00 to $1.00 of the most of the african countries,
2:16 am
including pena, to be some patients to we must plus the one with external interest that's continued on the net. all political discourse plus leads only in defendants. i'm from there, i'm now but canyon people to jump on disk. after a 14 year long legal battle and almost 2000 days behind bars, jolena sands is a free man and is now home in his native us really a sound. his wife and lawyers have visited australia is parliament to think the countries lawmakers, they are his legal team said the case should not have been criminalized in the 1st place. that is the case that never should have been brought. and i hope that we never have another case like it. the united states has never previously prosecuted somebody for publishing classified information, in this case,
2:17 am
information that was plainly newsworthy and in the public send for us to know information that field work crimes by the united states government. that is not just journalism that is journalism at the highest level, and it absolutely should not ever again be a crime. but we can expound or made a necessary pit stop on a remote pacific island where he appeared in court and pleaded guilty to a single charge of the conspiracy. as per deal struck with washington, the us judge that there sentenced him to time served. he is now home in australia. this is the moment he reunited with his family at ken vera airport. the the, the, it was us maintaining on the tarmac,
2:18 am
but it was the entire world who was celebrating a julian plans to swim in the ocean every day. he plans to sleep to sleep in a real bed. he plans to taste real food and he plans to enjoy his freedom. sands is released, ignited jubilant celebrations across the street. la crowds flooded the streets of ken barrow waving posters, flags, and balloons, and joyous celebration on his return. after and during 14 years of relentless us government persecution for exposing their crimes. many still can't believe he is finally free. she cried. for hours. i've been, you know, we've been campaigning. he is really wonderful. has taken such a long, long time. never forget julian aside and never did anything wrong. he reported the truth and the whole american administration and all, no yaks,
2:19 am
or even saw the new ministration guy spend the time lying, shooting, and deceiving. they got caught out by joining us edge. see, i didn't believe it. to be honest with you. so i, i saw a news clip also now this is i hope's the despite of sons' pleading guilty to one espionage charge. the court ruled that his actions did not endanger any one. however, it's the same as matthew miller. mister, that memo, as he insisted during the heated press briefing that the sanchez actions had caused harms, though even the state department spokesperson couldn't quite pinpoint to exactly had been harmed. but are you satisfied that the case is over? so look at the justice department spoken that i don't have anything to add. obviously the obviously the uh, the master put down the statement that said um we were happy to work with our sterling colleagues on it. and that remains the case. i do think it is important when we talked about julianna's ons to remind the world that the actions for which he was indicted and for which he has now plead guilty or actions to put the lives
2:20 am
of our partners, our allies and our diplomats at risk, especially those who work in dangerous places like afghanistan and iraq, i actually did talk to the state farm bank. and i don't remember there being any public. or there was a public concern that was raised about the potential security risk. those 2 sources who might have been quoted was there actually any for did you ever. ready discover anyone who was the injured killed had to go into hiding. so because of them, so a few things about that one. i can't give you a definitive answer only because i wasn't here at the time and so much time and the hold on. so the, let me finish, i have a full answer on it. one, i can't speak to that because it was some years ago and i don't have a full, you know, accounting of what happened. but the number to the state department did an extraordinary amount of work. when we found out that these cables were going to be published to
2:21 am
get people out of harm's way, to go around and look at what might become public and take action. so people that would be put in danger, that would be put out of harm's way. but 3rd, you know, if you drive drunk down the street and get pulled over for drunk driving, the fact that you didn't crash into another car and kill some one doesn't get you out of the uh, of your direct was actions and endangerment that you put your fellow citizens in and it's the same thing. same principle applies here, right? well i, i, i don't think that it does, but the fact of the matter is that the state department has been leased as far as i know and maybe i'm wrong. but there's been, has never been able to point to anyone who was compromised or killed, or, you know, always spoke to international human rights lawyer said abdullah armoire, he says julianna's sanchez, case, exposed american double standards when it comes to freedom of the press and democracy. we could not leg dollars a sort of bully and harass journalism and journalist into you know,
2:22 am
a not really using information as the street. it's quite difficult as we know to come across information deeds. when i go over directly with you, especially in this case of war crimes are concerned. and this you is basically the hypocrisy that people call should be point out that you don't. if you always go across the world being the policeman. and then you doubt that you will, we have freedom and then you go and you harass journalists like this and for work, he explored the truth. he was the reason why the, what kinds of are all going to want to sign and go down to move into light. and the whole persona of the united states being this week, all of that finished basically of the day. and julian finally has reached kendra, and you know, he's now a free citizen. but at what cost? how many lodge trove of more than $44000.00 emails on the weak links website is
2:23 am
mysteriously gone offline? just hours after julian hassan was released, the files detailed how leading us democratic party figures conspire to, to support hillary clinton over bernie sanders for the 2016 presidential nomination . the week it looks website where they were previously displayed now shows an internal server error. shortly after the emails were published, already clinton reported they discussed killing julian assange. can we just drone this guy? clinton openly inquired, offering a simple remedy to silence a sound in some other wikileaks via a plan to military drone strike, according to state department sources. and it was quite a bit of outrage about these remarks in us media after all, she was calling for the extra judicial murder of a journalist. now hillary clinton denied that she made these statements and this happened as mainstream us media went into an overdrive saying that the packing of the emails had been agents we received from russia. emmett, julius ons was somehow
2:24 am
a russian agent. let's recall the media hysteria back in 2016 and the n c was hacked. they believed by the russians. communications were likely sees by a group of tied to the russian government and cyber security experts are blaming the hack attack on the intelligence agencies of russian president vladimir potent russian state. actors broke into the dnc, stall these emails. now no evidence was ever provided to prove that somehow russia was involved in the events or the julius on was working for russia when he published. i'm out. but these claims were repeated all across you as a media to feed what became known as the roster gate narrative that hung over the trunk presidency, much of which was completely and thoroughly debunk by evidence that continued to serve as throughout the trump administration. now, after a 14 year long grueling legal battle julian assigned, she was forced to plead guilty to one count of violating the espionage acts. he is
2:25 am
now selling in the united states, but he has been released to return home to australia. and many people around the world are looking at the case as a pretty blatant example of hypocrisy. when it comes to western leaders and their calls for transparency and human rights and the protection of journalists and freedom of the press, etc. a r t and ross cosmos, are launching a joint project. star bound is a direct line to the international space station and allows people from bricks, countries who are passionate about space to communicate live with russian cosmonaut . it's our table moderate the program from as moscow studio with 5 episodes planned each dedicated it to one of the bricks countries. you can watch the 1st episode throughout the day, right here on our t and on our website the,
2:27 am
sanchez is an image many thought we'd never see join a song she walks free. would you like found or striking to deal with us authorities bringing it in to an over 10 years long, legal battle. but there has to be a catch. what is the motive behind this? unprecedented move by the white house. we're digging into all the details. this is direct impact. the again julian hassan is free. that is the headline today, the founder of which he leaves set to return to his home country. well, throw you very soon. following his release from a u. k. prison on monday, a san show shop to world wide fame in 2010 is a ledge by the d. o. j to of orchestrated the biggest security breach in us military history. they say, with the aid of chelsea, mannings, and bradley manning these revelations lifted the bill on the us military, industrial complex, exposing war crimes and atrocities. investigators say that assign just actions
2:28 am
broke laws meant to protects, instead of information and put the country's national security at risk. julian massage long maintained that he was a journalist, simply publishing classified documents that he received from a source. nevertheless, he was charged by the us unprecedentedly, under the espionage jack, sparking a fierce legal battle against extradition that now after 12 long years as finally come to an end. now as part of this proposed play deal, because yes, there is always a plea deal with the us justice department of funds will plead guilty to one felony for conspiring to unlawfully obtain and disseminate classified information related to us national defense video grants and credit for time served full awaiting trial and the case del march prison. that means that the psalms will avoid any further present time. now it is not signed, sealed and delivered just yet as long as still needs to appear in court wednesday in the northern body on the island. so what is the catch here? the most persecuted journalist in the world,
2:29 am
and so deeply hated by us lawmakers and the intelligence community. and now they're done. we have a full lineup. joining the show today, we're joined by international correspondent, lenovo chan, senior research fellow at the global policy institute of georgia, that when we and c, i a was a blower, and host of the whistle blowers, john kerry. all these guys, thank you for being here. john. let's start with you, your initial thoughts when you heard this news, as i mentioned, there has to be a catch here. there is a plea deal involved, but what were your thoughts of julia sanchez? finally, free. my initial thought was that it wasn't a shocking development. what the shocking development was that he was moving onward to the federal district court for the northern marietta islands of all things. of course that is the the federal district court that is nearest the territory of us trail. yeah. we know that there had been negotiations on going between the justice department and juliet's lawyers for at least 6 months. and this really came down to
2:30 am
a fee saving exercise. on the one hand, julian said very adamantly that he would not be responsible for any future prosecution. over journalist, under the espionage that, that was not going to be laid on him. and then at the same time, the justice department had to placate the c i a and the f. b i which were deemed to be the so called victims. in this case, they finally came to an agreement, i think honestly, because this is an election year. this is something that the white house wanted to just go away. and there was great pressure from the australian government. yeah. yeah. what it, what it ridiculous idea. george, that the c i a and the f b i are the victims of what of being exposed. bi weekly leaks are being exposed by julian assault. and truly what they say is, you've, you released as important classified information of them committing crimes around
