women make science group of gals episode full on al-jazeera. if you want to help save the world. sneeze into euro. the in. the a. 3 people are reportedly killed in egypt in another day of widespread protests demanding the resignation of president upton found out since. i'm fully back to watching al-jazeera on live from doha also ahead coronavirus cases in the u.s. crossed 7000000 and their fear is the reopening of university campuses will add to the number of daily infections as ruth bader ginsburg becomes the 1st woman to lie

in state in the u.s. capitol donald trump looks set to nominate a female conservative to fill the supreme court vacancy and india's prime minister narendra modi faces iraq backlash as tens of thousands of thomas take to the streets over new agriculture recourse. thank you for joining us we begin with egypt where they are reports that at least 3 protesters have been killed after thousands of people defied a police crackdown to demonstrate against the government for a 6 straight day dozens were arrested in braids ahead of the protests but that didn't stop people expressing their anger over corruption and deteriorating economy as well as for living conditions and also demanding the resignation of president. jamal and child. discouraged with threats of arrest or even death

egyptians took to the streets in several areas across the country on friday. they dubbed it the friday of rage to demonstrate their opposition to the rule of opting for tough a c c and among the tea resigns. slogans like this say it's outloud don't be scared of c.c. has to go were heard in cairo's one neighborhood. in the giza governorates which has been the epicenter since protests began last sunday police and other security personnel were deployed in force thanks. this latest wave of anti-government an anti military rule protests were triggered by cc's decision to demolish entire neighborhoods across egypt under the pretext that the homes were built illegally. these neighborhoods how some of the country's poorest communities who have already been suffering the brunt of a faltering economy unable to cope with the impact of the coronavirus pandemic according to the world bank 70 percent of all egyptians 70 percent live under

either under poverty or on the brink of poverty that's a situation that's understandable that the social and political constraints just yesterday $150.00 appeared for the state security court i'm charges of terrorism because they were protesting in the street we know that terrorism charges in egypt are the ways in which the state clamps down on any bourses of dissent. there were calls to by former army contractor turned opposition figure mohamed ali now an exile for people to demonstrate with september 20th marking one year since similar demonstrations took place against c.c.s. rule that. sisi supporters particularly those who control egypt's media will claim that these protests are marginal and largely in significance but the way in which the states is dealing with the protesters would suggest otherwise. human rights groups like amnesty international have already denounced the mass arrests of demonstrators over the past few days. egypt has now witness 6 consecutive days of

protests the slogans have all been demanding an end to cc's rule and while the number of protests may be growing gradually ceases grip on power doesn't seem to be loosening. earlier i spoke to cyrus zs a professor of law at rutgers university in the u.s. she says it's important to note that the protests are being led by any opposition movements well they're not organized because the crackdown on any type of collective activity has been very severe you can organize on facebook at camp protest there are laws against that they've been doing prevented it detentions and sometimes kidnappings and so then the signal in the message is very clear that if you attempt to mobilize or oppose the government or vocalize your opposition then the government crackdown and what we see is use of tear gas use of bullets preventative detentions with a ground rounding up people and in some cases death and then people are in jail for

who knows how long and sometimes they stay in pretrial detention for multiple years in a row so this is the regime has made it very clear since it came in power and that it has a 0 tolerance rate tolerance policy for opposition and dissidents so what we should anticipate is more of the same and then the real question is will the egypt shan's be willing to face death by going out and protesting and i was going to the lines are so miserable that they will face the part the real possibility of being killed or imprisoned for life in order to protest or will they continue to persevere and suffer under very dire economic conditions. in other world news the number of confirmed covert 1000 cases in the united states is now past 7000000 according to john hopkins university that's more than 20 percent of the world's total reported infections meanwhile a study in the u.s. says a reopening of a university campuses could be linked to more than $3000.00 additional cases

a day top infectious disease expert on tony found she says he wants to see cases fall to below 10000 a day before the flu season starts in october person trump claims the country is rounding the corner on the crisis dr tom frieden is a former director of the centers for disease control and prevention he says the focus needs to be on longer term solutions and not just a quick fix. it's clear that different parts of the united states as different parts of europe are in very different places you've got the northeast and a few other states that have relatively low rates and have kept those low for many weeks now of other states with rapid increases one thing i think we need to be clear about is that we don't know what the flu season will look like this year in the southern hemisphere there wasn't a bad flu season so it may be that you don't have this kind of double trouble of flu plus coded but we do expect to see more code spreading in colder weather that

would be expected and with people coming back to schools and colleges with not having consensus around mass wearing with not having good programs to test and trace people the u.s. does not have the upper hand on the virus right now we hope there will be a vaccine rolled out to 2021 but that's not assured and even if there's a vaccine it's not a fairytale ending to this pandemic with the vaccine we're still going to need to be careful about interspaces be careful about hand washing and shaking hands and wearing masks do a good job of finding cases and contacts and outbreaks so that there isn't spread i think we need to get past the concept that we just need one thing and then this will go away we need to chip away at the risk of kogan and recognize that we're all connected within countries and among countries and it's an all of our best interest to work together to stop this pandemic and also be much better prepared for the next one. u.s.

media is reporting that president donald trump intends to nominate 48 year old amy connie barrett a favorite with social conservatives to replace justice ruth bader ginsburg on the supreme court members of congress have been paying their respects to the 1st woman to lie in state in the u.s. capitol. hill has more on the 89 year old who died last friday and the controversy surrounding the appointment of our success. a military guard escorted ruth bader ginsburg's casket up the steps of the u.s. capitol honoring a woman who helped transform life for millions of americans it is with profound sorrow and deep sympathy to the ginsburg family that i have the high honor to welcome justice ruth bader ginsburg to lie in state the late supreme court justice was a champion for equal rights for men and women born to

a world vastly different from the america today in the 1950 s. despite her brilliant mind and dog good work ethic she was demoted because of her gender and questioned for taking a man's spot in law school her tenacity and painstakingly thorough legal record eventually caught the eye of president bill clinton who nominated her to the supreme court ginsburg sat on the high bench for 27 years her diminutive size be lying her juggernaut status as a feminist icon for the left and voice for social justice through her scathing dissents. line a topic had a bill for president abraham lincoln ginsburg broke yet a final barrier becoming the 1st woman and 1st jewish person to be afforded the honor of lying in state at the u.s. capitol. as a lawyer she won equality for women and men not in one swift victory but brick by brick case by case through meticulous careful lawyer.

she changed the course of american law. democratic presidential candidate and former vice president joe biden was among those who pay their respects at the end of a long struggle with cancer ginsburg dying wish was to have a new president named her replacement to the supreme court polls show a majority of americans feel the same but president donald trump plans to announce his nominee to fill ginsburg's vacancy saturday. trump will nominate a conservative judge and senate republicans have the numbers to push through confirmation possibly before the november 3rd election that would give trump a significant victory to tout to his base the creation of an ironclad conservative majority in the supreme court whoever replaces ginsburg could wield key votes for upcoming cases on health care and abortion rights and as the president has

acknowledged could even help resolve any recall challenge to the election results those powder keg circumstances fewer than 40 days before voters choose their president all but guaranteed contentious congressional hearings a head but for now a last quiet moment beneath the u.s. flag at half mast in honor of a woman who leaves the country more equal for individuals and more divided in politics. castro al-jazeera washington or less now speak to jeff houser who joins us on skype from washington d.c. he's annoying and executive director of the valving dollar project at the center for economic and policy research thank you very much for being with us so amy connie barrett expected to be nominated by president trump on saturday according to u.s. media before we talk about who she is and what direction she likely take the court if she is confirmed let's talk about the process democrats have of course been attempting to block this nomination just how better do you expect the battle in the

senate to be to confirm if she is indeed nominated by john. i think the battle is going to be extremely bitter i think the biggest question is just how bitter it will be the more active this wing of the democratic party wants to make this perhaps the most contentious situation in the senate since the days of the before the civil war. believing that america's democracy is in question right now more establishment wing of the democratic party thinks things are basically. bad but can get better on their own and they don't want to rock the boat so i think it's going to be contentious just that intention is remains oddly enough a subject of contention amy connie barrett is a favorite of social conservatives and shell hole from the right if she's nominated and confirmed what will that mean for the direction of the supreme court on issues

like roe v wade abortion rights is is she the vul to overturn roe we think absolutely there is no question and kone barrett and are her mentor or her mentor as antonin scalia the leader of the right wing legal movement in the united states for the past 50 years they have dreamed of the day in which they can overturn roe v wade for many decades and 20 there were not when should the opportunity to do so she will not be as forthright as i'm suggesting in her answers to the senate but her answers should not be taken seriously do you think this pick could have an impact on the election itself and the outcome of the election and d.c. her recusing herself if there's an election question is present trump has been suggesting in the past few days saying that he you know he wouldn't probably recognize the election as being free of fam. i am. i don't believe that many

votes will be moved by the county barrett nomination i think this entire process is unpopular and that might be a slight drag on from the trunk obviously believe that when a thoughtful conservative out shore up the base and shore a relatively high floor for his vote total that is inadequate to win the election but is close enough maybe to kind of the old election and that is where tony barack decision about whether or not to both on cases before the court that's a decision that potentially momentous i suspect she will agree to hear cases and that's why this is to my mind such a worrisome development in repair ginsburg's tragic death and rapid ascension of 20 barrett in the likelihood that you will be able to take that the so quickly which is why i think the archives should buy extremely hard but yes i think he

there is a pop a distinct possibility that cases will go before the supreme court and i'm skeptical that 20 barrett would recuse herself in fact i'm sure trump has made a. complete confidence that she would not recuse herself after the jeff sessions attorney general situation we know the trumpets very aware of the possibility of recuse told by people who are supposed to be more oil to him in his eyes and i'm sure he'll never get old again like that i mean to see how this all unfolds thank you very much for talking to us jeff house anytime. still ahead on ology. what we also want is for you to quit the question brianna taina sammy continue to demand justice stops a grand jury's decision not to charge police officers involved and had that venezuela's president nicolas maduro hits back at the u.n. following a growing tide of accusations against him. however

india's $2.00 trillion dollar economy and employees around the $1300000000.00 population. under the 1964 agriculture produce markets in committee act farmers have to sell their produce at government regulated markets such as this one they're known as mandy's where middlemen help farmers sell their harvest to either state run companies or private buyers. most famous lease only less than 2 hectares of land and have suffered for decades many have been driven into debt by increasing costs of fertilizes and their inability to secure competitive prices for their produce. the main opposition a congress party accuses prime minister narendra modi of making farmers slaves of capitalists modi's on the pressure to increase private investments in a sense that economists say has stagnated he says the new loans are historic.

we need. for the 1st time farmers have got actual rights over their projects the reforms in agriculture will benefit small and marginal farmers the most there are $85.00 out of $100.00 farmers in the country that belong to this category. the government says monday's won't be shut down but their monopoly has to end and he says the so-called minimum support price of which the government buys farm produce won't be scrapped. maharaj saying there's a farmer who's a pradesh state he grows rice on the hof ahead which releases from a landlord he says the government's regulated system was failing but he's worried about how much protection the new laws will offer farmers against big corporate interests. again i see the crops are going to be sold for peanuts the middlemen and

the business from the show they decide the cost of the farmers won't have any choice and they're unable to meet therefore the laser's of basic costs sometimes these middlemen do all for you and i doubt the big corporations will do that actually we don't know if they would support the farmers it's up to our government and let's see what decisions they make. winning support for change among such a vast and important population is india's farmers is proving difficult for prime minister modi who won the last election promising to improve their lives chance transferred al-jazeera. 5 people have been arrested in paris after a knife attack on 2 journalists near the former offices of the satirical magazine. the pair were on a cigarette break when they were randomly attacked 3 weeks after 14 suspects went on trial over the 2015 charlie hebdo attack in which 12 people were killed. it's so tragic to see such. and as attack was after treated almost
