as well and has called sunday's ruining and that ranges justice. still to come on the al-jazeera news hour i'm sure that his prime minister shaken ciena celebrates winning a fourth term and promises to investigate allegations of vote rigging by live on the mexican border where thousands of central american asylum seekers are waiting in the hope of making it over to the united states. and williams in her fast much of the new season find out how she fed and sports with peta. now u.s. democratic senator elizabeth warren has taken a major step towards joining the twenty twenty presidential race warren told
6:07 am
supporters that she's forming an exploratory committee that allows such a raise money and find the necessary stuff before fully launching a presidential bid she's also released a video promising to protect the middle class against the excesses of wall street a famous line case a feature prominently in her campaign. america's middle class is under attack how do we get here billionaires and big corporations decided they wanted more of the pie and they enlisted politicians to cut i'm a fan of swines the crippled union so no one could stop me to turn the key dismantle the financial rules meant to keep us safe after the great depression and cut their own taxes so they paid less than their secretaries and janitors it's time to write the rules for them and why after wall street crashed our economy in two thousand and eight i left the classroom to go to washington and come from the broken system head on. well i'll just say that she had her town c.
6:08 am
is following all the developments and joins us now live i mean she have we obviously remember the last woman to run for president how does this candidate if indeed she don't run just she. will her style is authenticity as we could see in the us in the video she she has a proven track record against wall street as well and the other main reason the other main factor that she has going for is she's not bernie sanders because of that last woman who ran for president hillary clinton there was a great deal of bitterness within the democratic party among clinton supporters when she lost which is often directed at what the russians for one thing but also but also bernie soldiers in the progressive wing so she does have that on her side she's actually a democrat bernie sanders is no democrat he's an independent but he's on as is an avowed socialist elizabeth warren says she's she's a liberal she's a liberal and perhaps has she can appeal now to more sections of the party than bunny saunders does if she does run if he does run rather because they do obviously
6:09 am
have a very similar message which is the system is rigged and enough is enough so that's what she has going for that's where her style and substance might have some benefits for her if bernie sanders who will be the front runner from the left of the party if he does decide to run if he does put his hat in the ring and anybody else saying that maine did join that rank anybody else that might compete with the two of those things. i mean already we're seeing bit of a civil war in the party between the progressive wing and the centrist ring there's a centrist clintonian wall street corporate democrat wing of the party which is represented by hillary clinton during the last primary season we already know that corporate establishment wing of the democratic party are having meetings and retreats often with their donors in order to try and plot ways to combat what is being seen as the rise of this progressive wing the normality now of ideas that
6:10 am
that donors the corporate to donors to the centrist wing of democratic party don't want to tour which is wall street reform and free health care for everyone and all that sort of stuff it's interesting elizabeth warren didn't even mention dollar trump in that video that wasn't just necessarily to establish herself as you know a principled woman in her own right but i think a lot of a message that is against that centrist wing of the democratic party who the progressives blame for the oligarchs see that the u.s. right is right there and blame and blame for giving us all trump in the first place because after all it's the corporate democrats who lost the election last time around great so it's a she have a sound say they're giving us the very latest candidacy. bangladesh's prime minister shake a cena as we judge calls for a new votes after being the clan that led the landslide winner in sunday's election they say at least seventeen people have been killed including seven from the ruling party and five from the opposition alliance the opposition has rejected the results accusing the government of vote rigging shall stratfor reports from the capital

and i know there is still mostly settled for us in the western parts of europe at the moment it's not particularly warm but hey it is winter instead for the east and across the central belt is where all the unsettled weather is and a lot of that is turning to snow because it's just so cold so plenty of wintry weather on the leading edge of this system on tuesday and then we're seeing more widespread snow for many of us as we head into wednesday for the south of baltimore intense system that will be working its way away from greece as we head into wednesday and working its way through turkey heavy downpours out of this and also some strong winds and it looks like that system will also be affecting us across the northern parts of africa as well so for some of us in libya it looks pretty wet on choose day and then that system will be pushing its way into parts of egypt as we head into wednesday also of the east coast of the mediterranean say very wet and
6:17 am
windy for some of us here has been pretty soggy over the past few weeks now meanwhile towards the west is generally looking fine and settled for us in our cheers not particularly warm there on maximum about sixteen degrees which is sixty one in faran high i mean for the south of plenty of warm sunshine to enjoy here laid out say getting to around thirty one degrees there are more showers a bit further towards the south cabo and it's catching the lion share of those. one of the really special things about working for al-jazeera is that even as a camera woman i get to have so much empathy and contribution to a story as we cover this region better than anyone else would be pushes you know it's very challenging there but in the particular because you have a lot of people that are divided on political issues we are we the people we live to tell the real stories are just mended is to deliver in-depth journalism we don't

6:20 am
right a migrant shelter near the center of the one i called in. and just to give an idea of what we're what we're seeing around us behind me is tents that's all that's all that we see around us is it's basically a tent community and it's new year's eve but there's not a lot of celebrating going on it's not hard to see why most of the people that are here are from central america countries like. they've been in tijuana for over a month now and they've been traveling for even longer than that making their way across quite amala making their way across all of mexico to reach this point in the city of tijuana right on the u.s. southern border to have their chance to plead their cases with with us border authorities the conditions here are less than ideal it's very very cold the tents that you see here most of them are designed to house about two people what we hear from most families here is that they're having to share these tents with three four or even more people than that so conditions are not ideal for the people that have been staying at this migrant shelter for more than
6:21 am
a month now and having that said there is medical attention there's food there's water that's being provided to migrants but the overwhelming sentiment that we hear from people is that they're tired they're tired of waiting they're tired of being in this limbo stuck in to want to waiting for an opportunity to plead their cases for asylum the one thing that they don't want is to be forced into a situation where they have to go home but i want to give you a sense of what a day is like what life is like here in this community have a look. this is an average day and but with that one of the one is busiest migrant shelters there's a clothing drive a medical tent and free haircuts for anyone in the muslim brotherhood of them and what they've seen we have a population of one thousand four hundred people since it changes every day as many people are leaving some of the immigration status or have found jobs and have moved to other mixed consistence others continue to look towards finding the target of ways of crossing the border there are also some who have requested assistance in
6:22 am
returning to their home countries voluntarily. most of the people here are from on dude us and inside and are seeking asylum in the united states many of been assigned a number and are waiting for their turn to speak with authorities at the border i mean. it's good to stay calm and white and think about our options. and he and his family have been in for more than a month now after travelling across mexico with thousands of other central american migrants he says of the u.s. won't let him in he plans to stay in mexico c.e.o. the theory. if there is an opportunity to enter the united states i will enter and i will look for work because the truth is my family needs the money to make a better life for ourselves we really are we made but if we can attend to that's ok too i want to honor is an excellent place to live. two thousand and eighteen has come to an end and many people here say they weren't expecting to be waiting this
6:23 am
long at the border they want to is hosting somewhere around five thousand central american migrants that began arriving in november the mexican government along with u.n. agencies and local donors have set up tent communities all around the city but many people here tell us they're tired of waiting and if chosen to cross over to the united states illegally. also from hundreds sell cigarettes at the shelter he says he plans to join dozens of others in the coming days and jump the border fence of the moment on the bill i don't have a number didn't ask for one. i've been waiting a long time what i want is to cross let it be god's will my dream is to find work and provide for my family. crossing into the u.s. illegally carries its own risks a few days ago when migrant drowned trying to swim around the border wall his body was found the next day by authorities in california for those who choose to stay in the new year only promises more uncertainty and no guarantees that their long wait
6:24 am
will end in the united states. and it's a tough way to spend new. expecting from what they're telling you some to cross into the u.s. illegally any idea what so the numbers we're talking. it could be more than some we know that there is a bore than one thousand people that are staying in this particular camp that we're at right now even today when we've returned to the migrant shelter we're noticing that the numbers have lessened a lot of people are telling us that people have already started leaving today wanting to cross the border but everybody here has a different opinion there's thousands of migrants in the city of tijuana not just that this migrant shelter and everybody has a different idea different plan of what they want to do some want to stay and wait it out wait for their number to be called plead their asylum cases others have found work there taking advantage of that work visa that was given to them by the mexican government but many many have told us that they want to take advantage of the the new. a year's holiday they believe that because of the holiday season that
6:25 am
border security might be a little bit more relaxed and they want to make that that try they want to try their luck at the american dream by crossing over the border illegally and that's what we're hearing from a lot of people today that at some point this afternoon early in the evening we could see a crowd of people making their way over the border fence and into the united states but again what we're hearing from people even those that were that used to say is that they're tired they don't know how much longer they're willing to do it and i think that that person they've already reached their limit and today is that is the day that they're choosing to make that run for the border good to get your thoughts there on the border. between mexico and the u.s. the opposition in the democratic republic of congo say they will not accept the results of sunday's elections if the ruling party wins vote counting is well underway but it could be several days before early results are announced the opposition says there are irregularities in both the presidential and parliamentary elections president joseph kabila is stepping down to seventeen years hasn't been
