we were visit the conversation about whether or not there is a racial disparity in opportunities for minorities and whites to become head coaches in the n.f.l. the minority coaches fired with the cleveland browns you jackson the new york jets todd bowles vance joseph of the denver broncos the arizona cardinals steve wilkes and the long time coach of the cincinnati bengals marvin lewis and didn't deliver what you know number one goal is not to be world champions and we did not get at the. opening day at the end of the all season for your arizona court. in two thousand and two under the threat of lawsuits that would have accused league owners of racial discrimination the n.f.l. adopted a rule. that at least one minority candidate had to be interviewed for each head coaching vacancy despite the rule the number of nonwhite head coaches continues to

lag behind prompting criticism from commentators like dallas sportscaster dale hansen getting fired at one place and getting another chance isn't the problem but young talented coaches have cover not getting the chance that's a huge problem the author of a statistical study of all coaching positions in the n.f.l. says the real problem is not overt discrimination at the very top of the coaching ladder but a conspicuous lack of opportunities in lower level coaching positions that can lead eventually to the head coach's office. there's a huge racial disparity in promotion rates for position coaches and the promotion of core nader and in particular promotions the office of cornet or so when we're talking about head coaches we're missing the big picture here hundreds of black athletes putting their bodies on the line every sunday thank you but a tiny handful of black coaches and general managers something about that score

a kitty the winner with nearly thirty nine percent of the vote his supporters say she accept the result. more than thirty guys stop with it's don't we want it we don't she didn't she did we didn't make an arrangement. this is just result of the polling station and we make sure what. we do or we don't want to go into a fight unlike previous elections voting day at the end of last month was relatively peaceful but growing suspicions over the count could derail congress' first democratic transfer of power since independence from belgium in one thousand sixty constitutional court judges are due to meet on monday and tuesday to go through what martin finally says is evidence which proves he won last month's election if the judges say he has no case in felix's a katie will be sworn in as president the influential catholic church is rejecting the official result so too is france and former colonial power belgium the african union and the southern african development community regional body are appealing to

the people of congo to respect the eventual decision of the constitutional court judges and avoid a violent reactions. progress has been made but i doubt there was court challenge will change the situation. definitely he has the right under the constitution to. recourse. and he has to show evidence if. the courts are independent or not there we'll deal with his case accordingly and also show the evidence if you win then you win but what is most important here is to look at really the outcome and where and what has been and make an assessment and look forward but i am i am doubtful that the read be any in the by the results that we change the situation at this point this is a tremendous victory for the congolese people because what you've been thinking

would not have been has happened the transfer of power without. bloodshed and. saving the electoral process the democratic process that is very important to the congolese people so as a kid who has been on the other side of your will decision is now the. problem as the next elections with. what you were criticizing for this or i hope you will not do the same this government shutdown has become the longest and the country's history after reaching its twenty second day more than eight hundred thousand federal employees have not been paid forcing some to use food banks the shutdown was ordered by president arnold trump after democrats in congress refused to grant more than five billion dollars a demanding to build a wall along the border with mexico idea of hassle has the latest now from washington d.c. so heidi is there any movement any progress any inkling that there is some way the

shutdown is going to end anytime soon. unfortunately no richelle there really has been no movement in the last few days and congress adjourned yesterday for the weekend and really there's nothing publicly listed for negotiations to take up again of this monday what we do know is that president donald trump has been at the white house this morning firing off a series of tweets saying that he was there by himself waiting for the democrats to come back to congress to back to washington in his words for him to sign a bill to reopen the government he also tweeted i do have a plan on the shutdown but to understand that plan you would have to understand the fact that i won the election and i promised safety and security for the american people part of that promise was a wall at the southern border elections have consequences and indeed the border wall between the u.s. and mexico was the signature campaign promise of trump however what he fails to

acknowledge in that tweet is that he actually lost the popular vote for the election and just two months ago there was another national election in which u.s. voters sweep into power the opposition party the democrats who now have the majority in the house of representatives and it is those house democrat leaders who say they've now feel that they have the leverage to not cave to president trump's demands they do not want to fund this border wall claiming that they have the moral high ground and citing polls that the majority of americans do not want the wall either so where does that leave all of us is that these two sides really have very little reason to come to the middle for ford to make a deal that would reopen the government and thus we have this shutdown that's now going into its fourth week or so and. workers are just now not getting their first

check how are they coping with this. right and they're the ones that are caught in the middle of this standoff and feeling the pain yesterday was the first missed pay check for these eight hundred thousand federal workers and they run the gamut of government service providers from government scientists to the t.s.a. security agents at the airports that screen passengers and luggage in fact those agents who make very low salary to begin with many live paycheck to paycheck and there have been reports of people resorting to charity for food handouts or monetary donations online just to make ends meet and the thing is with these t.s.a. security agents they are being forced to continue showing up for work and doing their duties this spite not getting a paycheck because they are deemed essential for maintaining national security so some workers unions have actually filed a lawsuit against the government saying that it is unconstitutional to compel

a person to work without pay and t.s.a. agents have also responded by calling out sick because they're trying to use those days off to work to search for other work that actually does. offer them something to bring home to support their families or shell right heidi to castro live for us in washington thank you. president donald trump has blasted into york times report that the f.b.i. opened an investigation to find out of trump was secretly working on behalf of russia against u.s. and shuras according to the paper the investigation began in may two thousand and seventeen after trump fired then f.b.i. director james comey counterintelligence investigators were assigned to evaluate whether trump was a potential threat to national security f.b.i. also sought to determine whether the president was deliberately working for russia or had unintentionally but influenced by moscow so trump responded via twitter this is what he wrote wow i just learned in the failing new york times that the corrupt

former leaders of the f.b.i. almost all fired or forced to leave the agency for some very bad reasons opened up an investigation on me for no reason and with no proof after i fired lying james komi a total sleaze is fine as a former us associate deputy attorney general and a constitutional lawyer he says his revelation could lead to more investigations. no other president has ever done anything that skates close to the line of acting on behalf of foreign intelligence service or a foreign country it would necessarily constitute treason which under the united states constitution requires a leveling of war but certainly the evidence that was accumulated suggesting that there was some kind of collaboration between president trump and russia because the house democrats you know now control the house of representatives they can

undertake an investigation issue subpoenas to those at the f.b.i. and even though this wasn't you know a crime necessarily it certainly bears on the fitness of the president for office and which means impeachment covers actions that are short of criminal activity but where does this go next and i can guarantee you that the house government affairs an oversight committee will probably issue subpoenas on monday to get the bottom of this why did the f.b.i. think the evidence was credible enough to suggest that mr trump was actually spying on behalf of the country of russia i thought a teenager who fled her family because she feared for her life has arrived in her new home country ross mohamed al clune flew from thailand to canada after an offer of asylum eighteen year old one global attention with a social media campaign she launched from her hotel room and bangkok begging for help i can has more from her her on. the long and arduous journey from saudi
