a brutal sweeping crackdown against the people of hong kong intended to destroy the freedoms they were promised thanks to you to the committee for holding this hearing was asked the question is this the end of the one country 2 systems. as the u.s. must stop interfering in the halls of wall that it would resolutely and forcefully resist let's get more on this earth more correspondence our clock is standing by in hong kong for us so we wondered what sort of response the chinese would give to those potential u.s. sanctions. or the china's response has been swift as it's come at the last hour or so and basically it says that the u.s. should mind its own business and this is once again foreign interference china in a statement out by the media agencies of the government led media agency says that pretty much that these new national security laws introduced in china have

widespread support across china as well as hong kong and says the u.s. move is not about democracy it interferes in china's internal affairs and it grossly tramples on international law i'd also say it's a move or a bid by the u.s. to contain or stop china's progress and development and that once again that these laws have widespread support so we did expect china to be swift in its response and certainly we do expect more reaction in the next 24 hours but certainly their sponsors just come at the last hour or so from china it's pretty much told the u.s. to back out or back off and mind its own business as a result but certainly we've seen some members of the public protesting these past few days and some of the protest leaders have made a more calculated move by sort of leaving the area what more do we know about especially when it comes to make some law. well we've seen a number of parties a demo sisto and various pro-democracy groups have disbanded on the eve of these

a 9 inch knife stuck in our back the knife has been pulled out about 3 inches that doesn't mean that the economy is now healthy really want to thank him for being a friend to the state of florida but that didn't stop the vice president from visiting florida to praise the governor for his handling of the crisis and the economy i also want to say governor that that we fully support your prudent steps. in in in working to slow the spread and the rising cases that are impacting florida today but more than 10000 floridians fell ill on thursday 50000 people nationwide a new one day record and in this state and in others dependent on holiday makers money beaches bars and restaurants are closed get again thanks to a surge in virus cases this is the livelihood of my father who started with nothing came into this country with nothing and i cannot it just it's too hard to let it go

a college degree are disproportionately african-american and so the issues are intertwined they're probably accept specific racism but the bigger issue is this is demick racism that makes african-americans particularly vulnerable when the economy gets bad in their overall rule of thumb in america is that when white america gets a call. it goes to the hospital and unfortunate that all too that metaphor is all too real right now both in terms of health disparities and as well as economic disparities far too many of the unemployed are now moving into permanent unemployment and we need as a society that he care of those people those people have done nothing wrong they are the victims of a health crisis that has been exacerbated by an incompetent president and that is not something for it anyone should feel any individual responsibility we as a society should be protecting people getting people back to work in socially

useful ways that can be done safely but most importantly we have to get the health crisis under control before we will be able to fix the economy. the trial of 20 saudi arabian officials accused of killing journalist jamal khashoggi is due to start in turkey in december a saudi court sentenced 5 people to death and 3 to jail for the better shot his body has never been found charles traffic reports this is the last moment you man who shows he was seen alive it's october the 2nd 2018 the journalist who wrote for the washington post newspaper had gone to the saudi consulate in istanbul to get documents he needed for his wedding his turkish fiance had e.g. ching is waited for him outside turkish prosecutors say he was murdered his body dismembered and the remains never found 20 sandy's indicted for murder to be tried in their absence in a court in istanbul police say security camera video and photographs show the saudi
