a messy chair will have all the details coming up in sport. yes president used his weekly address to claim to mcgrath's for not closing loopholes that allow gay members into the country says the democrats are protecting immigrant criminals connected to gangs such as m s thirteen has in this ration has adopted a zero tolerance policy to immigrants crossing the border illegally or that's policies of separating children from parents has been heavily criticized castro has more from washington d.c. facing mounting criticism over his new policy of separating children from their parents who are caught crossing the border illegally president donald trump sought to offer another justification for his so-called zero tolerance policy saturday the president says this policy which aims to criminally prosecute every adult caught

crossing the border without authorization is a deterrence for keeping central american gay members out of the united states just weeks ago an illegal m. as thirteen gang member was arrested for allegedly murdering a man and burning his body the gang member reportedly entered our country through glaring loopholes for unaccompanied alien minors. democrats allow those loopholes to be there they could change him so easily but they don't want to do that for strictly political reasons democrats say the immigration system needs to be fixed but taking children away from their parents is not part of the answer the trump administration separated nearly two thousand children from their parents in the first six weeks of the zero tolerance policy the kids are being held in privately run detention centers like this one in

california this is video shot and released by the government reporters were allowed to briefly tour the facility but were banned from taking pictures or speaking with the children going to shazam republican strategists and consultant she joins us now from washington d.c. the sky thank you for joining us so donald trump has repeatedly lied and said that this this policy of his is actually a law that's why the separations are happening that is not true he has also said that this is something that the democrats could fix that it's their fault that is also not true why is donald trump not. and bracing his policy while his department of justice actually is. well let me give you the political reason for a moment here and that's because the president is. flip flopper we saw that prior

to his campaign in two thousand and sixteen changed so much now as president he's trying to get by. we've seen he's a president that loves to be admired he wants to be respected and when he realizes that the g.o.p. is lit on this he is trying to i think figure out what's next and for him that means that he is going to put out he's going to say he supports both bills that are. right now how do you what is the evidence that the that the g.o.p. is split on this there are approximately forty democratic senators right now that want to pass an immediate law saying that to ban this practice there are no republicans that are coming forward in the senate saying that they will help this get over the hump what is the evidence that the g.o.p. is against this. well that's in the senate that you mentioned the house is where we're seeing this blip and that's what i'm looking at the leadership of the house

speaker paul ryan as well as others have put together a compromise bill and it's very moderate in nature however representative bob goodlatte from virginia has a bill that is seen as the far more far. as i understand that that's addressing the wall etc etc does that bill specifically address this policy best practice of separating families we haven't heard by all ryan we haven't heard anybody say address that specifically that's what we're talking about exactly there have not been public there's not been public outcry from leadership on this and it's it's frankly very troubling for a lifelong republican like myself who are not sure why a conservative i'm sorry you me i'm not sure why compassionate conservatism which we heard former candidate jeb bush speak about in two thousand and sixteen we're not sure why that's dead right now we're not sure why this is an issue that requires people to exhibit principled leadership this is just common sense and so

your point as to why this isn't being addressed in the bill i think next week we should see something happen and we because right now it's a bit of a crisis and there are prominent conservatives in the media calling out and i think the president is getting very nervous because his white house advisers are telling him one thing yet he won the respect of the full party and that's not happening right now on this do you think that in the end that this could. actually be more damaging to what the president says he's trying to accomplish i mean his his chief of staff john kelly said that the game of the game is to terence do you actually think that that's what this is going to accomplish. i think right now it's a bit too early to say what can be accomplished i think in the short term yes we may see a drop in illegal border crossings but again this is short term we need to talk about a long term strategy i think one thing is important to note here this is the president making good on a campaign promise his base was promised that he would secure the border the

president had listened to white house advisers such as steven miller and even john kelly about taking the nuclear option this was a last ditch effort this year zero tolerance policy and the department of homeland security secretary for example she's one of the ones in there right now being very critical of this policy there are a lot of different opinions on this but one thing it's true i think his base of happy this is a policy that is going to win the president a lot of more support from his base because he's making good on a campaign promise a deeper support from his base yes but not broader support. as a. republican strategist and consultant what is your take on that make you feel about your party. well american voters have a very short term memory and it's a long road until november of winter for election i think if there isn't some sort of fix the legislative fix in my opinion would be the leadership build

a more moderate bill i mention in the house i think the president should get behind that bill and work towards compromise you look there's an interesting take out there right now that's being discussed the president might actually have taken this zero tolerance policy in a way to get democrats to come to the table and compromise themselves so he may be using this as leverage i think it's. yes i think i don't think this administration is above that which is very disturbing for people like me who have always believed in compassionate conservatism i don't believe our government has any business putting up families but i think i think the trump administration has taken this route because they've seen previous deterrent deterrent strategy by the obama administration for example family detention deporting unaccompanied minors i think they've seen those strategies as an effective so that's why they've taken this last ditch effort and look i think it's just too early to tell what the effect will be

on the electorate in certain parts the country come november we just have to see if there will be a fix on this train a shot thank you very much joining us from washington d.c. thank you shoot out and house fire in the capital of nicaragua has killed at least eight people raising the death toll since anti-government protests began two months ago to more than one hundred seventy people the violence by contrast between president daniel ortega its government and protesters among those killed them and six members of the same family including two toddlers and reports. police in managua say a group of hooded men through fire bombed into this house. a family of six killed in the fire including two children medics failed to resuscitate. my two cousins survived one was burned and the other was hit she fell onto the balcony she was thrown a glass toward my body my hands my head as we got out of here he got out by for his

. neighbors assisted firefighters and dousing the blaze while helping survivors escape from the balcony they say police surrounded the house and burned it after the owner refused to let them place a sniper on the roof to go to a nearby checkpoint. the owners had nothing to do with this they were christian in the policeman if the porch they wanted to burn the house and they managed to burn it police say they will investigate the cause of the fire. protests began two months ago after a decision by president daniel ortega to cut pensions. ortega's critics say the former revolutionary leader is running a corrupt government protesters want him to step down and the government to implement democratic reforms the opposition really won't be happy with anything less than a premature departure from the presidency of ortega human rights groups say at least one hundred seventy mostly young people have been killed since mid april in

confrontations between heavily armed soldiers and demonstrators armed with rocks and slingshots. protesters are calling on ortega's government to end the violence which the president blames on foreign agitators and drug cartels the latest violence flared hours after troops have been signed between the government and civic groups right now there's no external institution no internal. real leadership that can bring about a change here who doubts what nickname in the president has yet to respond to demands by the catholic church for early elections ortigas third term as head of one of the poorest countries in the americas is set to end in two thousand and twenty one the violence meanwhile has splintered the country between loyalists and protesters slowing down towards him investments and grinding the country's economy to a halt. on al-jazeera. to the polls on sunday to choose their next president and

a runoff vote but the two candidates offer different visions and the future of a peace accord with the revolutionary forces of colombia are far that hangs in the balance and the calico reports from bogota. well we're just a few hours away from the polls opening here in colombia and what i can tell you for certain is that this is a divided electorate on the one hand you have people who want to see a more secure economy they are the supporters on the other hand you have people who want to see the insecurities and inequalities of this nation addressed they are the gustavo petro supporters but what's really uniting everyone and worrying everyone in this election is what will happen with the peace accord signed with the park governors back in two thousand and sixteen is a critic petro says he will keep the whole thing in place but let's take a look at it and do kay take a profile of a relatively new comer to colombia politics and see what his policies are and the challenges he may face. in colombia memories are

a precious commodity especially in a nation where thousands of been killed by the colombian military deaths referred to as extra dudish all executions the military use those deaths to falsely claim they've killed more guerrillas jacqueline chrystia lost her brother ten years ago. and what this is sadly we can say there is a sense of indifference in society to the plight of the victims we need people to stand up and say we can't let this happen again we need to end it for good but instead people often don't seem to care. the deaths of innocent civilians are just one of the issues of will face if elected at forty one he's a fresh face in colombian politics untested and handpicked by former president alberto. levy has been accused of human rights abuses but remains popular among right wing voters critics fear duke it will be little more to the pockets of a former president with a questionable past but those in the business community welcome his economic policies to things that we need to keep growing we need to insert ourselves of

economic international economic networks and we need to bring more money to the country and more proper is going to. the biggest fear among voters though is do case plans for the peace accords with the fork rebels the. historic agreement signed in two thousand and sixteen ended decades of conflict but dukie is a critical. event duke is running on the campaign slogan war hard but it's what he may do with the peace accords with many here concerned some say the agreements up entirely other cities more likely to modify it but for the thousands of families that have lost loved ones a duke a victory could mean they won't get the odd justice they so desperately seek kamens or gomez lost one son to an extrajudicial killing her mother was murdered when he tried to find out what happened she tells us the possibility of a presidency makes her angry and will see no justice he says truth colombia's

voters remain deeply divided on sunday they'll find out who the new president is and what the future might look like when the polls open on sunday morning with just a few hours away from that happening at the moment all indications are is it has something of a commanding lead but it's also worth noting that gustavo petro is the first leftist candidate in this country's history to get this close to the presidency either way by sunday evening colombians will have a clear idea of what their future holds. so ahead on al-jazeera the difficult reality of child labor and bangladesh. soon activists in the u.s. travel from coast to coast to rally for greater done control following a number of high profile shootings. in france gets over the line to beat australia joe will have the best of saturday's action coming up in sports.

peculiarities to saturday's incident in moscow is the immediate aftermath of the news first breaking that a taxi and driven into protests ruins walking in central moscow course the assumption that a lot of people jumped to was that this was a deliberate attack the kind we've seen in cities across the world in the last couple of years but the austerity is came out quite quickly and said no the initial information suggests that the driver kyrgyz had lost control of the vehicle he'd been arrested and various charges have already been brought against him. but then the footage was released which actually search shows something a little bit different it seems to show the driver. pulling purposefully off the road he was standing in stationary traffic mounting the curb and then driving quite fast into the pedestrians making it look like a much more deliberate thing of course there are ways in which you could explain

that away more innocently but it does raise questions and the russian authorities do have previous history do have form in taking a very long time to attribute things to deliberate actions i'm talking about the bombing of a plane over the sinai peninsula in egypt a few years ago which the russians didn't want to say was related to any kind of terrorist act as they eventually ended up calling it. the russians have a very high profile events going on at the moment the world cup there under the international spotlight they want it to go off without a hitch and so i suspect that they might try to say that anything like this that happens is north's deliberate attack until the all the evidence shows that and if you know otherwise seventeenth people have been killed in the venezuelan capital caracas after a tear gas canister was softer and a student graduation party at
