to ukraine to force it to investigate his democratic rival joe biden id joe castro has the latest from washington d.c. . john bolton according to previous impeachment inquiry witnesses made it clear that he did not want to take part in what others have described as a as a as a shadow foreign policy toward ukraine in which other u.s. officials urged on by trump's private attorney rudy giuliani were trying to convince ukraine to launch public investigations into trump's political rivals in the u.s. in fact one assistant to bolton testified earlier that bolton walked out of meeting with him wish that that was discussed and he called it later a drug deal and the many are saying that democrats see him bolton perhaps even an impeachment hero it's unlikely that he will appear it is there are enough house democrats to vote to indeed impeach president trump but what that really means is

that he will be indicted in this and still be formally accused the bigger question in the suspense really comes in of whether or not he'll be removed from office and as you know that's the senate that would be putting the president on trial and deciding that question and there's a lot more unknown about that because it would take some 20 republicans to defect from their support of trump in order to vote to remove him from office and although even though we know that polling shows a growing number of americans think that he should be impeached and removed from office among the republicans in question they still are highly supportive of the president in fact in 95 percent approval rating among the republican base. twitter is banning political ads saying messages may be misleading the new policy goes into effect next month the company's c.e.o. jack dorsey says political messages should be earned and not bought he also says internet advertising is powerful and effective but it's it brings risks to politics

where it can be used to influence votes that affect the lives of millions of people where u.s. president donald trump's 2020 alexion campaign manager has reacted to twitter's announcement coates quotes a very dumb decision brad's prior scully says twitter walked away from hundreds of millions of dollars of potential revenue he asked of twitter will also stop buying ads from courts biased liberal media outlets which will no run on checks and accuses of being yet another attempt to silence conservatives since twitter news president trump has the most sophisticated online program ever known well eric ham is a us political analyst and author of the g.o.p. civil war he says this change will have a political campaign teams scrambling to adapt their strategies. this is huge not only for the business and social media community but more importantly for the

political landscape not just in the united states but across the globe we're talking about a major vehicle major lane for getting out one's message is now being closed off completely and so what this does is this in campaigns it's in messaging. people from various campaigns scrambling trying to find a way to reach their audience and as we know twitter has a large audience and able to reach many millions of people and so now that lane is completely cut off leaving people trying to figure out how in fact they reach their audience but of course many are looking and wondering what in fact well mark zuckerberg of facebook do and now that twitter has made this momentous decision this movie is i think it will be much welcomed by at least in the united states by the democratic liberal community we do know that and 2016 the election president donald trump his primary vehicle for reaching his audience was through twitter and

now the president has to find another way to reach that audience on a daily basis without the benefit of using political ads. facebook says it suspended some russian accounts that tried to interfere in the domestic politics of a number of african countries it says the accounts are part of 3 networks tied to a russian businessman who has been accused of meddling in u.s. elections the campaigns talked to people in 8 nations including mozambique the democratic republic of congo and libya almost 200 fake accounts for use to reach more than a 1000000 followers venema was the head of investigations at graphic social media analysis company he explains why russia would want to interfere and what social media users should look for. it looks like this was an attempt to burnish money to burnish russia's image in africa a lot of the pages were posting content which was praising russia all praising

president who's in and praising what russia was doing in africa and it's part of a diplomatic push that we've seen from russia in the fast lane the last few years to boost its presence in africa after after the collapse of the soviet influence networks there are a couple of things to look for with one of the big ones is emotional targeting we've seen time and again that this information act is deliberately post stories which will make the readers really afraid or really angry because when you're afraid or you're angry you'll stop thinking and then either you'll click on the thing they want to you'll spend money on what they're trying to sell so part of it is just to be aware of really really emotional content and then actually just look at the account that is posting the stuff before you before you click on it to before you share it one of the interesting things with this russian operation in africa was that because of the page transparency settings you get on facebook you can see that some of these operate some of these pages that appeared to be or claims to be run from libya were actually run from egypt or the netherlands or from

france and that's the kind of thing that any user can you can click on and they can decide for themselves ok it's pretending to be libyan but if it's run from the netherlands maybe something isn't right here and that's the kind of clue that you can look for that any any user can really look for. chile has been forced to cancel 2 major summit saft a week's events a government process the government withdrew from hosting the asia pacific economic cooperation summit and amazing on climate change all to syria's man a republic reports from santiago. that. thousands of people demonstrate on the streets of the chilean capital for the 12th day in a row while protesters marched chile's president so a stampede yet made an unexpected announcement to major international summits that were scheduled to be held in chile in the coming weeks would be canceled again with deputy maida but a. primary concern and priority as a government is to reestablish order guarantee safety for all society.

i'd like to say. the people watching us to see if he don't believe the media our media is lying to us i don't believe in you know when this there may have been a paper that i was fighting up there with the f.b.i. peaceful protests just like the taking place every day for almost 2 weeks ensuring the demands of demonstrators have evolved over time what we're hearing from people on the streets now are calls for the resignation of the country's president. a military enforced curfew and state of emergency and she was recently lifted but the demonstrations that have swept through several cities across chile haven't ended by apart from a distrust in the country's political leaders demonstrators remain angry at cheetah's police forces who are using aggressive tactics like water cannons and tear gas to disperse the protests.

with. that was not a sentiment shared by the speaker of the house nancy pelosi who resisted all calls to start an impeachment proceeding. or after the conclusion of special counsel robert muller's investigation which left it up to congress to decide if the president acted appropriately in regards to russian interference in the $26000.00 election but that changed in early september of this year when a whistleblower complaint came to light in it the still anonymous national security official wrote of more than a half dozen officials who knew about a phone call between president trump and the president of ukraine and they found it deeply disturbing the allegation was that trump was holding hundreds of millions of dollars in military aid meant for ukraine which is fighting off russian aggression intil the ukrainian president promised to investigate trump's potential political rival vice president joe biden and his son hunter who had worked in ukraine in

damage control mode the white house released notes from the call it did more damage because as the notes point out as the ukrainian president is promising to buy more u.s. missiles trump responds quote i would like you to do us a favor though he goes on to ask for investigation. into a debunked conspiracy theory about the election and later brings up the bidens the president must be held accountable no one is above the law that's when democrats announced an impeachment inquiry would be given along with the president's almost daily defense of the call i made a call the call was perfect there was no we wrote quote there was nothing to do with china leading into the hall they have no idea how they stuck me it didn't help in the president's own acting chief of staff mick mulvaney went on camera and seemed to admit it happened and i have news for everybody get over it there's going to be political influence in foreign policy he later tried to take it back well the white house made clear they would not cooperate define subpoenas for testimony and

documents attorney bruce fein says that could backfire i was there at nixon what we did is ok that itself the defiance itself is an impeachable offense go try yourself because the impeachment process becomes farcical if the president can simply withhold and block access to the relevant evidence democrats have spent weeks calling witnesses for closed door testimony officials from the national security council and the state department appearing before congress even though the white house told them not to his republican allies in congress didn't defend the call but complained about the process let's you know even symbolically rushing into the secure room to disrupt the testimony nancy pelosi needs to have a fair price as a vote on the floor to actually act there writes this impeachment inquiry with the standards that everyone else and due process so after a few weeks and more testimony that seemed to confirm what actually happened on the

call democrats did what was asked they said we will have a vote and lay out the procedures going forward for the public testimony that wasn't good enough for some of the president's offenders here on capitol hill i applaud the speaker for a fight. admitting it is a hard tire sham but you can't put the genie back in the bottle this is an attempt to to dress it up a little bit to try and give it to the sheen of but legitimacy and i just don't think that's going to sell but according to polls once the scandal broke public opinion began to change the majority of americans now agree the impeachment proceeding should go forward and the president should be removed that was made clear to trump when he attended a washington baseball game he was greeted to what is a familiar chant to him but with a twist. this time they shouted lock him up for now the house is going to weigh in on whether he should keep his job if they vote to impeach then it moves to

a trial in the senate where members of the president's own party will decide his political fate and likely their own as well. al-jazeera washington. funerals are being held for 11 people killed in protests in guinea earlier this month tens of thousands have been demonstrating about a potential change to the constitution that may lie president of condé to seek a 3rd term and hire protesters say it will push kony and see a dictatorship when ariel sharon by live moves i don't have the words to express myself this deception what are we seeing on the ground it could kill politics in a funeral the sacred in our tradition our young brothers were killed how can the family come here 14 days later with no chance to have the funeral. there are fears that atrocities are taking place in burundi as the country prepares for an election next year the united nations special envoy to brindisi says the government is
