6:05 am
withdrawal from the nuclear deal i said i don't trust them and that they're american servants and clients these countries want to bring the iranian nation to its knees the u.s. which is your master couldn't do anything let alone you you were smaller we can be a deceitful in the negotiations with those a steel hand in a building glove they cannot be trusted we have no problem with talks but not with the us. but domestically the country has seen protests against price rises and in the last week condemnation of the downing of the ukrainian passenger jet after it left with the loss of 176 lives the message one of regret and condolence call to all. the plane crash was a bitter accident but through our. next month iran has parliamentary election polls show that the turnout could be very low and obvious concern for the legitimacy of the political system here in iran as he's firing as he made my dear brothers and sisters my d.n.a. should have a run in the presence of the iranian people is the most important factor of this
6:06 am
presence is power in many places one of the most important roles is the election. the nation of military commander general cost them so the money by the united states had resulted in a wave of support throughout iran but that changed when its military shut down the ukrainian airline ayatollah khamenei decided to speak at a time when the country is experiencing tense pressure externally and domestically this. is about supporting the situation and getting iranians to face up to the challenges that the coming months and years this country may face. for donald trump has responded to those comments made by ayatollah ali hominidae on twitter said that the so-called supreme leader of iran who has not been so supreme lately had some nasty things to say about the united states and europe their economy is crushing and their people are suffering he should be very careful with
6:07 am
his words well bill schneider is a public policy professor at george mason university he says trump's response is consistent with his policy towards iraq. we are in a tit for tat situation with iran in the united states threatening each other but that's the way trump prefers to operate he believes that strength is the key threats are the way to communicate that strength and so far he's had some success in doing that. he pulled out of the nuclear accord. that accord appears to be breaking down which is exactly what he wants and he's threatening iran that if they resume their income their increased enrichment of uranium there could be serious serious consequences and he's backed up his threats when he killed the stage the attack on the iranian general showing that he was extraordinarily serious about these threats it's got americans very worried about the possibility of a war with iran and one of the effects may be that it's increasing support in the

democratic party for one of the contenders bernie sanders who is an antiwar democrat democrats are very worried about war and as it happens trump believes the easiest democrat for him to defeat would be bernie sanders so he could be working in that respect as well as president donald trump's defense team say his upcoming impeachment trial has been announced so let's take a closer look now at 2 of the major players ken starr is a one time u.s. circuit judge of the last impeachment investigation into bill clinton and he was also a part of the legal team for convicted sex offender jeffrey epstein then there's alan dershowitz former professor of law harvard law school his previous clients include jeffrey epstein and o.j. simpson he was also a part of the defense team for disgraced media mogul weinstein. correspondent cable elizondo is in washington he says trump isn't taking any chances with his legal
6:09 am
team. trump is taking this very very seriously i mean these 2 lawyers that he brought in to be part of this team are celebrity lawyers that are very very well known in washington and have a long history in this city and really in the nation 1st looking at alan dershowitz a long time a law professor at harvard he's considered one of the preeminent constitutional lawyers in the u.s. dershowitz is actually a democrat voted for hillary clinton however he has come out very strongly over the last 3 to 4 months or so even if before that saying that he believes that this impeachment trial is something that should not be pursued constitutionally and that there are no high crimes and so-called misdemeanors and so that's really caught trump's attention and i think that's probably why he brought dershowitz on his team also dershowitz his peers on television here in the united states as a legal analyst a lot so he's very adept with the media spotlight and i think that's something that trump probably appreciates also you have ken starr who was from the late ninety's
6:10 am
where you're well known in washington d.c. as you mentioned briefly he was the independent counsel that helped to prosecute or bring the trial impeachment trial against the then president bill clinton and so i think starr is very well known too and i think that's why he was probably brought on this team as well i think you can read into this that trump wants the absolute best people that he can get his hands on not the f.b.i. says it believes the saudi arabian government has been helping people from the gulf state to escape the u.s. criminal justice system a newly declassified document dated last all this says saudi officials almost certainly assist us based saudi citizens in fleeing the united states in order to avoid legal issues a newspaper investigation last year documented 2 dozens of the citizens would fled the country after being accused of crimes including mom slaughter and right. nearly 3000 migrants heading towards the mexican border have been offered jobs by

6:12 am
a backlog for asylum in mexico city so the people here as we said that a lot of them are sort of destined for disappointment really in the in the hope of reaching that dream of the united states the reasons that they go in and the reason that they're leaving won't do it is really 2 things by loons they're fleeing from going city extort and kill much of the population in various different parts of the country and also poverty in honduras is not a lot of opportunities this in a canonic situation it's been bad in the in recent years it's been getting worse what people say they just don't earn enough to live so looking for more opportunities in the north they come many of them with what they carrying is who they have and they going to stop here in the show you can see they're just going in and the new next stop on their regional. conference will break here not just here at when we come. people in guinea accuse police of
