judge barrett currently serves as a federal judge in chicago and is president trump's 3rd pick for the u.s. supreme court she is a woman of unparalleled achievement towering intellect sterling credentials and unyielding loyalty to the constitution. if confirmed judge barrett would replace justice ruth bader ginsburg who died earlier this month and was an iconic champion of women's rights she not only broke last ceilings she smashed them for that she has won the admiration of women across the country and indeed all over the world like the pioneer before her barrett is also a working mother she has 7 children including one with special needs and 2 adopted children from haiti she is devoutly religious and disagrees with the viewpoint the

u.s. constitution is an evolving living document a judge must apply the law as written. judges are not policymakers and they must be resolute and setting aside any policy views they might hold critics fear that view could shift the high court further right and lead to decisions that could undo abortion rights and the affordable care act that provides health insurance for tens of millions of americans democratic presidential nominee joe biden urge senators not to confirm barrett arguing the future of health care hangs in the balance the democratic leader in the senate agrees her views are way to the right of the american people and as they learn about it she will become less and less popular. but. the 28000 confirmation for justice brett kavanaugh was contentious republicans accuse democrats of

a smear campaign against kavanaugh who fought off accusations of sexual assault during the hearings this time truck appealed for fairness and further your members of the other side of the aisle to provide judge bat with a respectful and dignified hearing that she deserves and frankly that our country deserves the high stakes battle to confirm amy connie barrett now moves to the republican controlled senate the hearings are expected to move at a swift and unprecedented pace with republicans promising to confirm barrett's seat on the supreme court before the november 3rd presidential election kimberly health at al-jazeera the white house well now that trump has officially made his nomination let's take a look at what happens next the process has traditionally taken 2 to 3 months the president knew suffice the u.s. senate in writing and then the judiciary committee will conduct their own

investigation and many senators will meet with the nominee to the committee will hold public hearings before forcing on whether to breck amend. her nomination to the fools senate is once in front of the entire sentence there will be another debate then it will go to a floor vote for a majority or $51.00 votes is needed to confirm barrett's republicans currently hold the balance of power in the upper house with $53.00 senators well casey barlow is media editor for the scotu sblog which covers the supreme court extensively she believes parents will be confirmed before november's election. i think it will most certainly be a better battle and fact the original timeline that we thought the confirmation that what happened albeit still shorter than the cli we see here in the states just got shortened even further we are now expecting confirmation to begin in

approximately 2 weeks which usually about 4 weeks short of what we could pick lisi the democrats have already started the message there and tend to delay there was a message they sent around to all democrats last week noting 19 different delay tactics that they can engage in and of course of the ones that they wrote down and leaked to the press so i suspect there will be some that they're keeping for safekeeping and will launch later in the process but they have a lot of tools but i think we are in for a bitter battle but a quick one and she will be taking the seat that the head of the liberal block of the court she most certainly will sway the balance of the court to a point where the court will be 63 that will be a solid 6 majority 6 person 6 justice majority conservative bloc on the court which means that liberals in the case of cases that are important to them on issues they

care about like abortion they not only need one justice they need 2 to get them to their side so it will most certainly change the balance of the court. the man picked to be lebanon's next prime minister has resigned less than a month into the job midst of a deep says he hasn't been able to form a government of specialists in a country where power is cher's along sectarian lines a sense lebanon back to square one and it's search for a new stable government reports from beirut. it's been almost a month since most of our a deal was designated prime minister his job was to form a government independent of party loyalists after the previous cabinet resigned following the devastating explosion at the port of beirut last month it's not easy in lebanon where the same political elite accused of pushing the country to near bankruptcy have been in power for decades i realize that the agreement on the basis

i accepted this national mission during this difficult time of lebanon's history no longer exists as well as that the government line up with the specific ations that i put failed. mission was supported by france which has been leading international efforts to resolve lebanon's multiple crises by bringing change to the leadership president in mind where mccall said during his 2nd visit after the port blast that lebanese politicians agreed to form a cabinet by mid september see an already. fragile skepticism with this class and was very much a final ultimatum so i would be surprised if the french choose to give that same strategy another shot the armor movement and hezbollah backed by iran have been blamed for standing in the way of a deal by insisting on naming shia muslim representation in government a 1000000 hezbollah are part of the so-called march 8th alliance that currently control political power in the sectarian based system of government here the shia

parties feel the other camp the march 14th alliance is carrying else a political coup against the results of the last election. but others say their loyalty to iran brings lebanon into the heart of the us iranian rivalry there are 3 and they are squeezed cornered instead of being them through his will on the border those in the area and israel has moved towards the borders of iran so basically yes it is in the core of the conflict in. iranian conflict much is in. doubt for a country where more than 50 percent of its 5000000 people are officially poor the reforms the mandate by the international community to unlock financial assistance among them fighting corruption and audit is likely to hurt and implicate the political class that is why leaders resisted for years micron's that roadmap however doesn't just set deadlines it warns a possible consequences this is

a broken and broken nation not even the threat of western sanctions pushed politicians who are stronger than the state to give up power and agree to change some say the french initiative to save lebanon has died others say it can still be revived but the lebanese president did warn the country was going to hell if a government is not formed jennifer their beirut north korea has warned the south not to enter its territorial waters as it searches for the body of a south korean official said korea's military says the north shot the man at sea and then burned his body leader kim jong il in issued a rare repolish g describing the killing as a discrete full event john young says seoul's naval operations in the area threatened to raise tensions between the 2 sides arrest warrants have been issued for mexican military members for the disappearance of dozens of students 6 years ago it's thought the group of 43 were abducted by police and then turned over to

in lieu of all the curfew is just beginning there so plenty of people in the streets there's now a very real fear of arrest and there is more evidence to back up the reasons why there is such disbelief but no one in the grand jury decided to indict any of the police officers and the death of briana taylor vice news has now got its hands on the body count footage of the police officers who arrived at the scene after briana taylor's death i want to chose once again is louisville police breaking its own rules they allowed the officers involved in the shooting to walk around freely around what is a potential crime scene to talk to other officers to talk amongst themselves none of this should be allowed because in any crime scene you don't want the potential of potential suspect to be able to move evidence around to try to get their story straight no there's no evidence any of that happened but it's yet another sign of the louisville police department breaking their own rules we know they broke the

the causes of the economic crisis because we're still trying to figure out of the problem is structural or administrative it was a shortage of fuel bread and high inflation that triggered protests in 2018 that led to the overthrow of sudan's president a few months later and it's these very same issues along with the continued drop in the valley of the sudanese found that the transitional administration now faces the coronavirus pandemic and widespread floods have weakened the economy even further. in this conference who should look back at the past year and get over its obstacles by using the experience to achieve the 2nd article of our declaration that article states ending the economic deterioration and improving living standards of citizens in every aspect that will not be achieved until we take advantage of our resources and making sure the minister of finance is in control of all public funds sudan's economy has been in a downward spiral since south sudan gained independence in 2011 taking with it 75
