a major setback an appeals court has upheld a ruling that blocks the white house from using $2500000000.00 from the defense budget for the project trump a declared a national emergency to justify the move after congress denied him the funds. well it's usually a day for picnics and the pocket of fire wax but for residents of the u.s. capitol of this 4th of july independence celebration will be a different president on triumph is putting himself front and center along with a display of minute train light critics say he's hijacking the day for political gain has he called hand has more from washington. this is not normal this is not something people usually pass in the nation's capital now the sight of tanks and assorted military equipment here for a celebration created by u.s. president donald trump. on thursday there will be fly overs of some of the country's most sophisticated planes and the president will break with what has been
2:11 pm
routine and he will speak in washington as the country celebrates its independence taking part in an annual celebration that almost all modern presidents have avoided afraid it would appear they were putting the spotlight not on the country but its leader. but ever since he witnessed this in france and 2017 trampas wanted his own parade he tried before but when it came out that it would cost $90000000.00 he changed his mind but the desire didn't go away so now this on the 4th of july and this time no one will say how much it will cost taxpayers it is starting without precedent professor allan lichtman says it's not just breaking precedent that concerns him it's the broader message he sees the president sending trump has learned a big lesson that there are no consequences for anything that he does no matter how outrageous we have a democratic party with absolutely no spine that has done virtually nothing to
2:12 pm
check the excesses of donald trump it's also controversial because for the 1st time the republican party is handing out tickets to the event this is a public event it's open to the public the public is welcome to calm and celebrate our great cause. the greatest democracy the constitution all the members not just the 1st amendment seems to only interest you only it is true it is open to the public they can attend back there but this is the v.i.p. section the republican party is giving out many of the tickets to their top donors and fundraisers. and the president is promising a speech that will promote what he's done as president if that happens it will be seen as politicizing what has always been a nonpolitical holiday. that will be as controversial as rolling military equipment onto the streets of d.c. but this is a president who doesn't mind upset in the norms especially if it is unlikely to cost him support with his base. al-jazeera washington. now israel has

2:23 pm
a message that's that's deeply relevant in today's world and especially for india i think and there's. this kind of all out right wing assault on our freedom to oss questions and generally all freedom of expression and people you know are being targets in their students teachers activists filmmaker that's right since. i've been targeted most all of them have been intimidated it's on the arrested and people on the streets. protesting this reached our doorstep sort of in whichever way you know i'd like i'd like to attempts to contribute something to this. he let me. say i. think it's an endearing play needed to speak.
2:24 pm
if you can be a part of the struggles which are happening in the country what the meaning of artistic production meaning is to try to bring people together to be a voice organ off off to people. 7 if you're playing the people's music you have to find a few people and it's always what i dreamt of pride i was frustrated with what i'm doing always i dreamt of it i know what a song to sing when i don't want to dance and i know it can energize people make me feel empowered you know these are things that should not only happen if i can meet music venue and this sort of i would in my views this is something which i want to
2:25 pm
be able to contribute to it you know. the real protest space that i think is a space for this can be all bad and. so when forced or dressed in frustration it was to go back to the heart already know that it just sounds of skin color. and softness sometime not just the stack of speakers sound systems traditionally have been a way to take things in your own hands and to find ways to take music straight to people and literally i've been wanting to build a sound system ever since i started playing records records most of my life. sound systems i expensive and you can buy them ready made you have to build it yourself so with a mix of crowdfunding and i was born money me and my partner some of us started building own systems and it takes a lot of knowledge and experience to build its own system we were lucky to find a sound engineer to help us build all those. and see what it sounds like.
2:26 pm
and i saw a picture of you can you hear me that will talk to all of this is a this is the real deal and i'm getting a big vinyl so i can take it across the country oh ok. well it's having some way to play it that's the biggest that's the biggest thing is finding some way to actually turn it down. because it's loud i. remember coming for you it's probably easier i say this is sound. and then the other one coming out is yeah. one child should get the channels running but why do you feel the need to explain all this stuff like is important to understand because if you string out wrong things will come back. to you for my.
2:27 pm
taste. of course when you can get somebody with this man's record and music doesn't come up nobody riots. and it's so real it's that suddenly you're something that starts as an idea suddenly becomes a reality and it's a damn physical system that you're on top of imagine this a green set up in different places setting it up people coming and go it's this you know i meant going to is from. bending the generals exactly will all the sensitivities not number one in any of them would listen ms phillips and write the same as well as the 4th time and they after the game share knowledge of the people who are the moose and they get to lead the most tricky because there are bugs in the phone and i would simply make it so i'm not even sure i want it to be a success because if it does then back to me more on trumpet student. because
2:28 pm
they've been vicks to it just as a mother and i as a human being. well those are the consumer. confidence that all apologies to everyone trying to sleep in bed cash games and the rest of the final 10 more minutes on you is it right about now because like this. honoring the pollution or a from. revolution the road to work. it's a long shot i mean john isn't all that lies before us is where are we going to land i want people going to react you know how are people going to react if i take the system to a protest space or to
2:29 pm
a street corner and now people are going to let loose and dance with us and get it or people are going to be like yo you know. be dismissive of dr who says privileged guy playing this foreign sounding music i mean of course that's a feeling you want people to connect to a few doing a song probably lucky. one. so we continue to trust that i don't operate the system and he played a gig to launch a. loft i want to call from my old university and. bring the system then to support their comrades were on hunger strike.
2:30 pm
it's. just that one little bit. of this is a good deal it's a mismatch if you listen. and so it doesn't make sense to. you get it you know in order to keep. i thought i. know you're nervous man i mean don't you always nervous because you want to be relevant and you want to be able to communicate and create meaning you know. you never nor you know what i want to or sometimes do want to let you know how can you not think you're making music here and i can't i've been doing this my life i love it but you think i'm a i mean don't you know. this is really going on bit of anything if there's no music and they're going to get it which in effect. and for business supposed to be the new lives of people so it's important that these
2:31 pm
kind of things these kind of mediums these kind of what is this going to music. to them and they do a lot of and they think that. was . that. was. he. saw. this in he was hot i don't want to find that those. are not. finally we have here. this is something we've all done it took us almost one year we finished last month . 3 nights on the paper you revolutionary songs on the
2:32 pm
fall asleep you shall kill me from. this morning's hour on holiday strike against this i'm sorry. continue and in the beginning when i started playing that actually awesome you want to sit down which i didn't want so i'm playing records and i have seen of people like sitting on the ground looking at the expectancy which made me very uncomfortable 9 hours and it wasn't working in quite the way that i want because the one i'm dancing at people don't look at me look at each other and join something not so long.
