america's longest corridor virus lockdowns. one of south america's most biodiverse regions is under threat as wildfires ravaged parts of argentina. hello to visit officials in the u.s. state of wisconsin didn't want to happen but president donald trump ignored their pleas and visited the city of can osha it's been the site of protest since the police shooting of jacob black a black blake excuse me a black man hit 7 times in the back last month trump visited some of the property damaged during the demonstrations that followed which have been mostly peaceful he doubled down on his law and order campaign message calling anti racism protest domestic terror which he said had been fueled by democrats. violent mobs demolished or damaged at least $25.00 businesses burned down public buildings and threw bricks
3:02 am
at police officers would you police officers won't stand for and they didn't stand for these are not acts of peaceful protest but really. domestic terror well the president's visit was met by several protests. groups of anti racism protesters lined the road for a trump's motorcade was passing there were also rival pro drop trump demonstrations and jacob blake's family and friends organized they justice for jake up event attended by civil rights leader jesse jackson they called for peace and healing for the city and said the president's visit was about politics not the community. and the same reason he did it or at least he is here it is ok out in fear and we reject in that sense to go back that we were young and i will say here we do not need more pain indication from a president who is putting his own reelection and head on and even our city and the
3:03 am
american people who were to come in from reconciliation you simply justify the kid who did the shooting. give an. inspiration to the. unlimited militia there have been some altar cations in can osogbo not as big as in previous days john hendren was there and he explains why wisconsin is so important in the presidential race. well asking the president not to go somewhere is often a guarantee that he will go there especially if it's a democrat doing the asking and what he wanted to do was to come here and to take credit for the law enforcement effort as you can see there are a number of police vehicles down there at the end of the road right there which tells you that he did leave a city divided what's happened is that a couple of trump supporters were here in a crowd of black live matter supporters and they came into conflict and the crowd
3:04 am
followed to trump supporters all the way down there and i'm guessing that is the conflict that 7 or 8 police cars and a national guard armored personnel carrier or 2 are taken care of behind me in case you're wondering what's going on there so the president came to praise law enforcement for their efforts he came to condemn the black lives matter movement saying it was a terrorist organization and he also going to take credit saying that he had helped talk this state in to calling in the national guard the fact is that the president can nationalize the federal guard but that's not what happened in this case the governor simply called them in on his own but as trump was here touring some of the damage and. visiting a police command center. the crowds here clashed a little bit there were some drunk fans and and of course there were the protesters who've been here for many days protesting against the shooting of jacob blake
3:05 am
a black man 7 times in the back and he remains nearby in a hospital paralyzed from the waist down voted for donald trump a majority of them in 2016 and then switched in 2018 and voted for a democratic mayor trump probably would not have won the 2016 election without the electoral votes of the state of wisconsin hillary clinton famously did not visit wisconsin because she thought she had it in her pocket she didn't trump one well the democrats don't want to make that. mistake again so joe biden has gotten involved he has been praising what the black lives matter movement has done in terms of the peaceful protests condemning the violence but president trump would not say the name of jacob all day today and he has simply praised law enforcement so you can see the battle lines being drawn here for the state of wisconsin on drug unless speed is an associate professor of political science at emory university and she explains why the president is taking
3:06 am
a tough stance on protests donald trump has looked at the $28000.00 elections he knows that he's doing poorly most white college educated suburban women and in the suburbs in general because the suburbs are increasingly racially and ethnically diverse and so he wants to try to use law and order as its voters into thinking that if joe biden wins in the balance of powers and it's hips wards urban communities that he presumes they fled by living in the suburbs in the 1st place i think that there are other factors that have to be taken into consideration we do have to look at the cold and crisis in particular and how president trusts approval ratings on coal that are actually very low but one of the things that trump is actually hoping we're going to stay for is that specially in wisconsin if we look at public opinion polling support for black labs matter appears to be waning and so what he thinks is that there may be some protests and he can tap into that protest t. and that's mobilize his base of voters to turn out in record numbers to support him
3:07 am
and to reelect him so police in los angeles county have shot and killed a black man on a bicycle 29 year old dijon kizzy was shot more than 20 times in the back as he tried to run from officer and the family attorney says he was stopped for a bicycle code violation the sheriff's department says officers opened fire after they saw the handgun in his back. there have been more protests in lebanon's capital this time coinciding with a visit by the french president to money went back home police fired tear gas to disperse crowds outside parliament in beirut there's been widespread calls for political change and micron's threatening sanctions if that doesn't happen fast enough zain 100 reports from beirut. projecting influence and power it's another landmark visit by the french president manuel mccraw who was here less than a month ago he has taken the lead in responding to lebanon's economic and political

reaching the u.s. the report says beijing wants to maintain its. or weaponry on a higher state of alert meaning they could be deployed on short notice but even if china stockpile doubles it would still be much smaller than that of the u.s. which has an estimated 3800 warheads the report comes as the u.s. congress debates a $740000000000.00 military spending bill how does a castro has more from washington d.c. . this report also says that the chinese people's liberation army has a goal of becoming what it calls a world class military by the year 2049 and that in terms of the navy in fact china has already surpassed the united states and now becoming bill largest navy in the world with china having $350.00 some ships and submarines compared to the united states $293.00 china is also looking to expand its foreign military bases in this
