sees the best opportunities in the house of eurasia. the air. here separate center juice an article of impeachment against president donald trump charging him with incitement of insurrection and they seem to be attack on capitol hill they've also submitted as a resolution calling on vice president mike pence to remove trump from office. my. fellow that i have however he is in and this is al jazeera my friend dohan also coming up defying humanitarian warnings the u.s. prepares to brand yemen's hitty rebels asked terrorists and indonesian recovery

crews piece together the wreckage in their hunt for clues as to what brought down a passenger jets. my. bio in the last hour the u.s. house of representatives introduced an article of impeachment against president donald trump it charges him of inciting supporters stage an attack on capitol hill last week democrats also submitted a resolution calling for troops cabinets is a clear him unfit for office and remove him on the 25th amendment of the us constitution for the session was adjourned within minutes following objections that motion from a house republican it will reconvene on cheese day. house resolution 21 resolution calling on vice president michel our plans to convene and mobilize the principal officers of the executive departments of the cabinet to activate section

4 of the 25th amendment to declare president donald j. trump incapable of executing the duties of his office and to immediately exercise powers as acting president for what purpose does the gentleman from west virginia writes i object to objection is heard pursuant to section 5 a one b. of the house resolution the house stands adjourned to 9 am tomorrow. well we have 3 correspondents covering the story in the moments we'll speak to in the good name and wilmington delaware and alan fischer at the white house and we have castro following all the events on capitol hill but 1st let's take a quick look at how the 25th amendment works the measure can be used to remove the president's who is deemed unfit for office either mentally or physically vice president mike pence and half the cabinets the 2 votes to invoke the president then

has the opportunity to respond if the vote passes spence then assume the powers of the presidents in this case it only be in the rule for a few days until president elect joe biden takes office on january the 20th our speaker and democrat nancy pelosi says if the 25th amendments is not in votes then she will move to impeach for a 2nd time let's go to heidi jo castro who. we have had over a peach moments just introduced to the hardest working sellers. right so this is sort of the double barrel approach that democrats are using to try to hold president trump accountable for the mob violence that we saw here a week ago this article of impeachment it was introduced on the house floor done without announcement just inserted into. a container next to the clerk's office and the article itself is simple it's one charge it charges trump with

inciting violence against the u.s. government it cites the speech that he gave that morning to his supporters to rally them to march to the u.s. capitol to try to overturn the election results 800 the article says that this was consistent with prior efforts by by part of the president to overturn the election that phone call with georgia secretary of state pressuring him to find enough votes to overturn georgia's a luxury result that had. to joe biden now that this article has been introduced it starts the process toward if attention votes which we expect as early as wednesday there are $210.00 democrats have already signed on to this article that's a nearing a majority of the chamber and a handful of republicans a signal that they support it as well including senators in republican senators who have said that this shows trump has descended on the path of madness since losing

the presidential election if you look at all this so he may be impeached by the end of this week however a trial would not occur until after trump leaves office in 9 days' time so what is the point that many are asking what are the practical benefits of a teaching trump for a 2nd time all democrats want to do it anyway to hold him accountable in the eyes of history and also to potentially bar him from holding office in the future. and how easy what about this resolution to invoke those 25th amendments we saw there some objects and that means it's delayed for another day. right and that comes as no surprise this is another effort of democrats which is expected to fail it is a non-binding resolution trying to pressure the vice president mike pence to invoke the 25th amendment to remove president trump from office democrats present that that up for unanimous consent today knowing that there would be

a republican objection as there was and now tomorrow the same resolution will come before the full house floor for a vote but even if it passes there again it is nonbinding and vice president cannes has already signaled he is opposed to invoking the 25th amendment to remove president trump from office given there's only 9 days left on the clock of the tribe of ministration also keep in mind pence himself has signaled that he would like to be president in the future ok heidi jocasta there live on capitol hill thank you very. much indeed let's get the view from the white house now i can head across alan fischer allan we can see that the efforts are ramping up to remain donald trump from the white house as he said and i think it's all since the events that problems that all of this new reaction from the white house a toll of course he's not made any public statement since friday when he was banned from twitter he does have a medal of freedom ceremony due to take place in the next hour or so here at the

white house they're still discussions going on about whether or not the president will make remarks he's had a couple of those ceremonies in the last 10 days both occasions before there have been private media essentially the white house cameras and only the white house cameras there none of the press pool that normally follows 'd him around and that's one of the interesting things that people are saying that donald trump kicked off twitter losing his voice he has a briefing room less than. $200.00 steps from where i'm standing he has a whole media that's here to cover every single thing he does so he could walk out and speak at any point but there's been nothing from him about this idea that he's going to be indicted certainly over the last few days he's become perhaps more confident that he's going to see his full term he doesn't believe that might parents will act and invoke the 25th amendment for a number of reasons one might pence's own political ambitions and 2 it would simply

take too long and so would past january the 20th when of course he leaves office the other thing is he's pleased with the number of republicans who stood up for him at the weekend he thinks he still has the support of the core of the party and so they the will of poor is impeachment and of course if the house votes to impeach he thinks that will galvanize his supporters and also he thinks that it won't go to the senate in time before he leaves on the 20th what happens after the 20th and whether or not he could still be impeached then that's what he has for after the january the 20th deadline one of course he leaves and will lose po'd 'd at $1159.00 just a minute before joe biden becomes the $46.00 president of the united states will donald trump doesn't look like he's getting bases i say of office and the final week or so vice president say still got 9 days left does he have anything planned. well he's got a couple of things this there's been

a standing joke here at the white house that every time we were about to start infrastructure week because that something don't trump talked about on the campaign trail in 2016 and every time it seemed to be we were going to get to infrastructure we donald trump did something on twitter to detract from the message but this week is definitely burnish the legacy week and we're going to see a lot of things from the white house that suggest that donald trump made promises and kept them that is why he is going to texas on tuesday going to alamo not the alamo but alum or close to the mexican border there he will visit where they've built around 640 kilometers of wall he of course promised that they would build a wall from sea to shining sea which would be about 3200 kilometers so well short of what he promised and of course his big alexion promise was that who's going to pay for the wall it would be mexico and that simply hasn't happened but he's going to go to texas and talk about his immigration laws and how he tightened up

immigration into the united states he didn't deliver the huge immigration reform that he promised but he'll talk about the successes that he did have we're also expecting to see at some point this week another raft of pardons those have been controversial when he's used them but he has used them less than a number of his predecessors the big question of course either this week or in the last 3 days of next week will he self pardon himself and that could lead to a legal battle in the supreme court there's going to be a couple of executive orders we expect as well they have been drawn up they will target the tech companies he wants to move a legal protections from them he won't be able to do that with an act of congress but certainly executive orders will indicate that he's very angry with tech companies we know he's angry with twitter so that's got to come as well and he's doing all this against the backdrop of a recent poll just in the last 24 hours that suggests 50 cent 57 percent of americans think that he should go no and 70 percent. dissatisfied with the job that

he's doing there is a really bad favorable unfavorable poll results in fact he's never done really well in the sort of paul joining us 4 years in the white house and so he will leave perhaps with a lower approval rating than even richard nixon ok alan fischer there bring us up to date from the white house allan thank you very much indeed. so let's stay with this for more we can speak to barbara perry she's professor and director of the president president studies rather at the university of virginia's miller center and i'm delighted to say she joins us by skype from charlottesville great to have you with us here on al-jazeera we've had a correspondence keeping us up to say what's happening on capitol hill is happening at the white house but. it's all in sense and purposes we find ourselves in another unprecedented situation in the words of president it does get thrown around

a lot but this situation that the u.s. finds itself in right now can you think of anything comparable in u.s. history. as you say unprecedented will be the word a to define donald trump's presidency and i called him for all of his 4 years of president as the unprecedented president. there are 2 parallels but just barely so one would be the constitutional crisis an upset richard nixon the correspondent just said richard nixon left with about 23 percent approval rating in a constitutional crisis but the difference is that members of his own party marched down to the white house from capitol hill to say mr president you must resign because you will be impeached you will be convicted and you don't even have our votes of your own party in the senate and if you don't resign and you are impeached and convicted you will lose everything including your pension so there is

a parallel there and then sadly there's a parallel from the civil war period in the united states in the 86061 transition of power to abraham lincoln in which you had to start with 7 states of the united states union leave the union and form their own country and we devolved into a 5 year civil war at that point but in terms of having a president in sight insurrectionist to march to the capitol and attempt to disrupt and indeed disrupted congress and its constitutional duty that is unprecedented it certainly is and from an outsider's perspective if you look at the u.s. constitution when america is faced with a threat like the events we saw beamed around the world last wetton stay the tools that are available to the government are things like the 25th amendment things like him pitch meant do you think the. the safeguards that are

built into the constitution as it stands are they enough to deal with the president like donald trump because in years to come he may not be the last presidents of his . of his time. his ilk indeed you're so right hala about that and i'm sad to say as a political scientist and a presidential historian that i fear that the constitution is not strong enough on these points the 25th amendment was really meant for a physical disability but certainly mental disability as well but the impeachment process is the one that's failing us because when it was employed it implemented in the original constitution of 7889 the founding fathers did not anticipate the rise of political parties and partisanship and so what we see is yes logic would say that this president needs to be removed but because of the political party process and how polarized the country is right now that is bumping up against

and conflicting with the impeachment process in the constitution ok barbara perry there praying as analysis on the situation the u.s. finds itself in great to get your thoughts and your analysis thank you so much for talking to us here on al-jazeera thank you well let's get more from going to ames she joins us from wilmington delaware joe biden's home states and. the country right now you could argue focused on what's happening with the with donald trump and the impeachment proceedings the procedural things happening on capitol hill but in the middle of all of this one things left in a new president set to come in what has joe biden been saying about all of this. biden's official stance is that impeachment is a decision for congress to decide but if you look at

a tweet he put out on saturday it gives you a little bit more insight into his thinking he says that our president is not above the law and that justice serves the people it does not protect the powerful biden though is moving full steam ahead however he says his overarching goal is to get to january 20th get sworn in he wants to help unify the country and he also wants to pass immediate legislation addressing the pandemic we are now entering what has been probably described as the darkest moment of the pandemic far in the united states the vaccination rollout has been sluggish and more millions of americans continue to worry about getting food on the table and facing even action and he also wants to get money not only into their pockets he wants to get money to states to help with covert 1000 testing and the distribution of the vaccination his goal

he says is to get 100000000 americans vaccinated during his 1st 100 days we should mention by the way that biden is expected to get his 2nd dose of the vaccine today but he knows that this is going to come with a great cost and he needs the republicans republican support for moving truck is extremely low biden does have long time relationships with republicans dating back to his years in the senate and he's definitely signaled that this pandemic relief stimulus package that he's going to introduce will be costly in the trillions perhaps but he says that it's important according to economists that he's consulted with to inject a significant amount of money into the american economy to stave off collapse now biden made his final pick cabinet pick announcement today he has picked ambassador william. burns to become the next cia director he would become the 1st

career diplomat to serve as cia director he has logged 33 years in the foreign service including stints as a bassett or to russia and jordan he's currently the president of the carnegie endowment for international peace it's this country's oldest international affairs think tank biden says in choosing burns but to agree that intelligence should be a political and that intelligence professional should be treated with gratitude and respect that is surely a reference to trump's repeated attacks on the intelligence community during his tenure attacks that critics say demoralized and undermine the credibility of the intelligence community ok matushka named and willing to delaware thank you. the u.s. is preparing to designate yemen's hutu rebels as

a terror group in response the hutus declared it's america that's the source of terrorism aid groups warn the blacklisting could have catastrophic consequences in a country already suffering the world's worst humanitarian crisis and to ship out reports. 27 people were killed in this attack on audience airport last month as the newly formed yemeni government arrived to the. united states said those responsible must be held accountable and although the who these said they weren't to blame secretary of state mike pompei oh has announced he will designate the who these as a foreign terrorist organization and abdul malik out who theon 2 of their leaders as terrorists. nearly 6 years into the war the who these remain in control of a 3rd of the country home to 80 percent of the population that's despite an air and ground campaign led by saudi arabia and the united arab emirates and the local

forces they control the who these frequently staged cross border attacks on saudi infrastructure and commercial shipping the civilians sometimes caught in the middle . the situation on the ground is perilous more than 230000 people have been killed in the war the u.n. says 10000000 others are at risk of famine. and aid agencies fear the u.s. decision will push even more of the population toward starvation. $45.00 yemenis now depend on aid much of which comes through the hoop the controlled airport in sanaa and the port of her data pump aoe says waivers will be available for the delivery of food and medicines but there's real concern about the impact on both the humanitarian crisis and the economy some of the impacts that we're seeing at prices which are already extremely high could go up on. in part when he starts getting hit in the face of the sanctions already at the world's worst humanitarian crisis it is already a situation where millions of people are struggling to work and. millions are

famine warnings have just resurfaced so this is really. what we're talking efforts by the world food programme have held off famine for now the u.s. food agency won the nobel peace prize for its work keeping millions alive in yemen and many other areas where there are wars and conflicts executive director david beasley told al jazeera last month that u.s. officials know exactly how difficult they're making their work we'll do whatever we need to do we always have whether the sages are designations or not we'll do what we can to reach the people our job is to let the leaders understand clearly what will be the ramifications and what the difficulties that will be for us to reach people yemen is already in a dream only volatile fragile state with i can't begin to tell you we are on the brink of famine right now in yemen but there may be hope the washington post reports that president elect biden's foreign policy team is against the move to

designate the who these as terrorists and there may be a change once he's in office and al jazeera. face because shut down accounts filming to ugandan government officials days before the presidential election the u.s. social media giant says fake accounts and clipping those from the ministry of information are being used to manipulate public debate ahead to thursday's bullets election pits longtime leader your ema 7 a against 10 candidates including pop star turned politician bobby wine. and indonesian search team has uncovered more human remains in the java sea days after a passenger plane crashed just minutes after takeoff as victims' families mourn divers are searching the waters to the north of jakarta looking for the aircraft spot boxes jesca washington has the latest from jakarta. of the coast of the indonesian capital the search for answers continues by air and sea. divers come to

on friday giving them appointments and those appointments were timed so that they were staggered throughout the day so there hasn't been a big crowd of people or queues not of this. vaccination sense anyway i know that there were there was a queue that formed outside the newcastle vaccination center but not here nevertheless these mass vaccinations set centers are one of the main pillars of the government's attempt to try to get that 15000000 that you spoke of facts and aged by mid february and that 15000000 to be the bedrock from which to bounce on and get vaccinations even more widely into this u.k. of 65000000 people there will be up to $1200.00 vaccination sites up and running we hope by the end of this week or the government hopes by the end of this week when you include the 7 plus family doctor vaccination sites pharmacies will start to give vaccinations on a pilot basis and certain pilot schemes and the hope is that it will be that that the take up will be high as well people that we've spoken to here as they've been

arriving for their vaccinations have been entirely enthusiastic that they would be because they're the ones who have received their appointments and agreed to attend there may be others who receive their report and said no actually i'm going to wait i'm not ready for it to have my vaccination yet so there's a couple of different factors which are dependent upon this making it a success. well asia is reimposing at sea with corona virus lock sinus infections surged to $3000.00 a day at a price to kuala lumpur and $5.00 of the country's 16 regions and travel between all states will be banned but the prime minister said says essential sexers including construction and manufacturing can continue to operate under strict regulations the country is planning to begin vaccinations next month. israeli prime minister binyamin netanyahu is moving ahead with the construction of near the 800 homes for jewish settlers in the occupied west bank the innocent comes just days

before u.s. president elect joe biden is sworn into office biden has been critical of israeli settlement policies in the past or donald trump has largely supported them. or one is to appoint a crown prince for the 1st time in significant changes to its constitution so it's on the. side says the shakeup will also include new parliamentary rules and more rights and freedoms for citizens but didn't go into detail so don't hate them came to power in the death of his predecessor so it's an caboose named his preferred successor in a sealed envelope which was opens after he died. the 1st commercial flight switch in qatar and saudi arabia in more than 3 years has landed in periods last week saudi arabia u.a.e. but her in egypt agreed to restore ties with qatar after a blockade that began in 2017 jamal shell was there for the inaugural flight from

the house hunted international airport. airways flight 1164 doha true riyadh now usually this would just be a normal flight it's got i was has been flying to saudi arabia for years but that hasn't been the case since 2017 when the blockade was imposed by saudi arabia united arab emirates egypt and bahrain on qatar now that reconsideration seems to have been achieved between qatar and its neighbors this is the 1st flight from doha directly to saudi arabia the hope is that not only will this help mend ties and bring people together particularly many families thousands of whom have been separated as a result or worst separated as a result of the illegal blockade on qatar not only will that give them a chance to see each other but also to help boost economic both countries situations particularly in the light of the covert pandemic and the impact that

that's had on the air travel industry so this is the 1st flight is not necessarily the most busy one however there are people there now who have been queuing up to board on it obviously health precautions safety measures are being put in place each one of the passengers needs to present a covert p.c.r. test they will be quarantined when they arrive in saudi arabia but for now it is a historic moment in so far as that this is a tangible example of what the countries have been able to achieve following that we conciliation. this is al jazeera and these are the headlines the u.s. house majority leader says that could be a vote on whether the stake. president donald trump and i suppose impeachment has been introduced in the last couple of hours and john.
