on to power this is certainly difficult to predict i think the question because behavior actually signals his weakness because here remember ahead a little action he was warning about russia's intervention to dissemble as the situation and now he seems to have switched. the target and he's warning about the west western intervention so where is he in this heading is i think that question because power will continue we can know he's exit in the near future is unlikely. russian authorities say there's no indication of a crime in the suspected poisoning of the opposition leader alexina valley he's been in a coma for a week and continues to be in a serious condition after collapsing on a flight to moscow doctors at the hospital in berlin where he's now being treated say tests indicated traces of poison in his system but the russian prosecutor general's office says there's no sign of deliberate criminal acts against him and

a large influx of police from outside how has that affected the protests and the property damage that we've been seeing. well after that surge of police and national guard troops arrived overnight wednesday into thursday was for the 1st time relatively quiet all of the damage here at this car lot which was burned to the ground that happened on the 1st night of protests and every night since then we've had looting and fire bombing 2 nights ago 37 buildings were set on fires a whole blocks have been leveled here but last night they came in a lot of police at about 7 o'clock as soon as the curfew began that was an earlier curfew than previously and they immediately cleared out a central square sprayed people with tear gas and sent the message that they weren't going to put up with

a lot of violence in the streets and last night for the 1st time police seemed to control the streets the protesters were out they were marching definitely in violation of the curfew but they didn't own the whole parts of town where police simply didn't have the numbers to take over they were very aggressive there were even reports that police were pulling people out or that somebody was pulling people out of their cars and sticking them into unmarked cars that is something we saw in portland when federal troops arrived in oregon they were taking people off arresting them interrogating them doing whatever and then releasing or holding them here we started to see those kinds of more aggressive tactics last night until now what is the latest news you're hearing about white teenager he's being accused of killing. well kyle rittenhouse is his name he's lives across the border in illinois he's 17 and he

said in a video that has been circulated before the incident happened that he was here to protect the buildings and he had to have his rifle in order to protect himself he was a young police cadet in illinois before this apparently trained with that weapon and the viral video that shows him apparently him in the streets shows a man on the ground getting up and then firing at protesters according to police he struck 3 killed 2 and one remains in the hospital and that's generated a lot of outrage because there is also video of him after that shooting armed walking by police with his hands up he was not arrested until the next day and that's upset a lot of people across the u.s. including sports stars the national basketball association had 3 games scheduled for last night all of them were canceled major league baseball canceled games the

women's n.b.a. canceled games as well and that makes is not just relevant to sports fans that means this is a cultural phenomenon and icons across the u.s. have decided to defer to these protesters so they're getting a lot of support not just from the sports world but from camila harris the vice presidential candidate for the democrats who today said she was with these protesters and she said the mothers of these people who have been shot and the fathers they will have a place at the table and they knew biden harris' administration if that happens so there's a border to getting a lot of support not so much from the president who has been touting law and order . thank you. i was always saying the u.s. democratic vice presidential nominee has launched a preemptive strike all president donald trump ahead of his big speech to the republican convention condemned his response to the coronavirus pandemic but 1st

she does about the shooting of jacob lake saying america must fulfill the promise of equal justice the reality is that the life of a black person in america has never been treated as fully human and we have yet to fulfill that promise of equal justice under law. white house correspondent can be how can join us live now so complete that was a pretty strong attack on president. was a strong attack and that's not the only issue that she attacked him on the fact she of this aerated him when it came to his response to the coronavirus epidemic in the united states now what she said was that he made a number of missteps early and that that cost many lives she also said that he doesn't seem to fully understand the role of president the job of the president see that he makes it all about himself and as

a result americans health wellness and safety has been harmed and continues to be at risk if he has another term now essentially what she's saying is that donald trump doesn't have the fitness for the job a pandemic is unforgiving. if you get it wrong at the beginning the consequences are catastrophic and it's very hard to catch up you don't get a 2nd chance at getting it right well president. you got it wrong from the beginning and then he got it wrong again and again. now in addition to that speech in advance of donald trump's acceptance of the republican presidential nomination the democratic party has also purchased 2 minute advert that will be playing on major television

networks in the united states what we expect is this will challenge donald trump's ability to handle the economy safety and crime and again will be challenging his fitness for the role of president as well we expect that this is really going to set the tone one that donald trump we expect will come back swinging when he except his party's nomination in the coming hours you know bus the point isn't it can be i mean he or she going to respond to exactly what kamel harris had to say do you think. we expect that he will what we are watching very carefully for is whether or not donald trump will mention jacob blake's name specifically the man that was shot by police officers in wisconsin or will he speak about unrest more broadly is part of the overall law and order theme that we've seen from the republican national convention will also be watching very carefully to see how he

hits joe biden specifically when it comes to the pandemic we understand that he may poke fun the at the candidate accusing him of hiding out his basement having a basement strategy when it comes to response should he take the oval office and also they expect that he will attack when it comes to biden's record of public service that he did not stand up to china that he is weak on crime and also that his platform is really a front for one of the most radical private forms of any president according to donald trump this is a marxist ideology so we're watching carefully to see which themes the president will hit on the campaign says that it will be a very strong speech that will also appeal to voters which we know in terms of female voters particularly is a demographic that donald trump has been losing in the polls going to be interesting to see what he has to say compelling for the moment thank you i still had on the program
