7:13 pm
a path i could not, and would not take chinese opponent, lawyer harriet hagaman, was endorsed by trump, who's very popular in wyoming. trump congratulated hagaman and called cheney spiteful. obviously, we're all very grateful to president trump, who recognizes that wyoming hill has only one congressional representative. and we have to make it count is janie became one of the best known members of congress this year. as the vice chair of the congressional investigation into the events surrounding the insurrection of january 6th, 2021. as well as the various schemes and falsehoods, trump and his associates hatched as he attempted to remain in office after losing the election. but that didn't go over well with wyoming voters, 70 percent of whom voted for trump over joe biden, in 2020. despite her defeat, many people in wyoming and in washington, dc expect cheney to run for president in 2024, using a reputation as

7:19 pm
children was caught. lucas is an amortized a professor at the university of birmingham in the u. k. he says, what's happened to this change doesn't necessarily mean that donald trump will be president again. the area like why wyoming, which is not very densely populated, it says that trumpets can win at local level, that they can unseat their perceived foes, such as lead shanie, despite all the prestige, despite all the headline or political background that she brings. however, i think we need to be conscious here that it does not necessarily mean that the trumpets have taken over the republican party. let alone america don't trumps running for president 2024. it's only the timing of the announcement that we wait for now. the bigger question here is, does he succeed? does his spectacle overtake reality? and there are 2 factors to watch you. the 1st is, is that
7:20 pm
a lot of republicans are not really persuaded that donald trump is the way to go. you might call them established republicans, mainstream republicans, but with all his baggage, he knew not necessarily going to be back say by the senate republican leader mitch mcconnell. i think the republicans will look for a troposphere, who is not donald trump. so like florida governor on to santos. and secondly, all those legal cases potentially could mean that trump could not take the presidency if he went. because if convicted and i know it's a big if he would be disqualified from federal office on some of the charges, such as his violation of the presidential records act or to date his violation or alleged violation of the espionage at australia is a former prime minister has defended the secretly appointing himself to 5 additional ministerial rows during the pandemic. it's got morrison said the reserve pilot, when necessary, doing what he called unprecedented times. but that hasn't stopped calls in his resignation from parliament. sarah caught repose. ah,

7:22 pm
which is seeking advice from the countries solicitor general. the australian people went to an election, not knowing that any of this had occurred. not knowing that there was a shadow government operating in darkness. out with that transparency, i clear misleading of the parliament whereby parliamentarians and ministers i held to account for areas in which they have responsibility. why don't get rid of morrison says his actions didn't impact any one. but he gave the former prime minister additional powers, which he used to overrule the resources minister on an unpopular gas drilling permit before the election. legal analysts say the governor general's role i the seeing the appointments and the lack of transparency involved weren't an investigation. so this is fundamentally inconsistent. ready the basic conventions about westminster system, the government, the ministers are
7:23 pm
a to parliament and misleading parliament as to who exercises ministerial power is completely at odds with those conventions. this is extremely unorthodox. it is a breach of constitutional convention. before the prime minister may have apologized to his colleagues, but that hasn't quelled calls from within his party for him to resign from parliament. that's a step so far that's got marson is refusing to take. sarah clark, al jazeera brisbin, australia, ukraine's emergency service has released a video of what appears to be the aftermath of a russian missile attack happened in the town of atoka that 60 kilometers south of desa. at least 4 people are wounded. with hookers, rail bridge is an important supply line between odessa and the rest of ukraine, and has been targeted several times before where the war in ukraine has pushed prices of food and fuel up around the world. inflation in the u. k. hit a 40 year high because from the office of national statistics show the consumer
