3:04 am
majority in the house, that recommendation is unlikely to be accepted nitty. and any decision to attribute accountability for the insurrection now lie solely with the department of justice. mike hanna, out to 0, washington at all her frank and his republican strategist and lawyer. he says the motion by the congressional panel. that's a bad precedent. donald trump never had an opportunity up to present anything other than what he said, which is less. march peacefully letter or worse is tuttle trying her opinion to her parent the committee a subpoena that he to 5 that the committee is not a court of law. it is saying it was 1 july did, but donald trump refused to appear. donald trump refused to appear because he doesn't recognize the legitimacy of this committee and either to the republicans in the house of representatives, starting with its leader claim. i thought i remembered that most of donald trump's in a circle did testify including his daughter in van control, including his class,
3:05 am
trusted aid, rudy giuliani. i'm not contesting the fact that people have responded to the subpoenas because they feared persecution themselves. but many members of congress, the leader mccarthy and other members of congress and president trump have defied the subpoenas has have other individuals. but an individual choice. i'm just saying that the house of representatives is not a court. a wall. it is not to bridge. it isn't, that is what the dangerous precedent has been said here. let's move on to department of justice. that is conducting its own investigation into the capitol riots. will you recognize that one, the justice department can investigate anything? i don't, i'm not contest that, but there has been no conclusions or charges right against president trump by the justice department. a year supreme court has put a temporary block on the removal of
3:06 am
a trump error immigration policy. the restrictions were put in place in 2020 to reduce the spread of cov, it's 19 they allow for the swift deportation of asylum seekers court at the us mexico border republican lead states have been calling to keep the policy in place . our corresponded political home joins as thou live from washington, d. c. and patty, this is a temporary block, but does it signal that the court is ultimately likely to rule against the by the ministration ending these expulsions? no, it doesn't not necessarily mean that this is the chief justice john roberts. just say let's put a pause. let's keep this in place for now. he wants the rest of the justices to weigh in on this new ones done pretty quickly. it seems like so as you mentioned, title 42. this was it's beginning of pandemic. donald trump, who was very anti immigration, used a health code to say we can stop everyone coming to the border. i will call the
3:07 am
southern border, instantly gets turned around and they're not allowed to apply for asylum. so there's been a lot of different legal loss. a lot of lawsuits about this. but a judge recently said, no, this is in human, it's in germane. it ends december 21st. so as you mentioned, the states, these states read lead by 1900 and republicans. they sued and they suited to the appellate court. that said, no, you've waited too long. so today, just today, they took it to the supreme court, and by 5 o'clock the chief chief justice had put out this order, basically giving it a temporary stay. what they're arguing is that their states will be overrun with undocumented migrants. and we are starting to see a pretty serious search at the southern border. so the reason why this is a little bit interesting is because the supreme court already gave joe biden and his administration a huge weight on immigration. they were, they wanted to stop another trump error program was remain in mexico. basically,
3:08 am
you could come in ask for an asylum hearing, but you'd have to sit at mexico. wait, your turn for the hearing that happened, the supreme court justice summer said that biden could get rid of that program and it was interesting. it was the chief justice, another conservative justice joined the 3 liberals on the court and gave bite in that when. so he's attorneys might be feeling some of the boy by the previous rulings that said, the by the ministry who has been scrambling because we're seeing so many migrants come to the border because they believe that the order is going to be lifted. they can make a silent claims be let into the country and the by missouri. she behind the scenes scrambling to try and get down more people to be able to come up to you able to work with what's expected to be a very large number of micro trying to come to the us. ok article where use late that from washington. thanks very much patty. energy ministers from the european you have agreed to implement a cap on gas prices. from february they'll be kept below $190.00 per megawatt hour
3:09 am
. e members are under pressure to bring down high energy costs because of concern about shortages. block has been trying to reduce his reliance on russian gas supplies since the invasion of ukraine. and kane has more from volume. you get a sense of how unlikely this agreement seemed for many weeks. in fact, some would say several months when you hear what the relevance check minister of and check government has the presidency of the year at the moment. and they have been driving these negotiations. you get a sense of their reaction to this agreement. when you hear what use of secret, i had to say to reporters after the meeting broke up and other mission impossible accomplished, and as it is in the movie a series. this last was probably the most difficult one. i am proud that the chic presidency finally solved the last piece or far the of the energy puzzle. once
3:10 am
again, we have proved that her, the eat will, can deliver points here to remember is that there were several different sides to this. on one side, you had the germans, the austrians, the dutch, who really were not sure about the value that a price cap could have and would bring this idea of a fixed financial value for each megawatt hour. and then on the other hand, you had or is one of the other sites you had several southern mediterranean e, u member states who really were as it were crying out for some degree of help. the greek minister, last week in brussels, had said this was ground, 0 for greek citizens were also e, you citizens, the commission. the e u commission had wanted $275.00 euros per megawatt hour to be the price cap. the fact that it has been dropped to 180 gives you an idea of the lengths that everyone
3:11 am
has had to go to. to find this compromise. he cares high court has ruled the government plan to send asylum seekers. trolanda is legal and he petition policy was suspended in june after last minute challenge. and the court also said the cases of 8 asylum seekers due to be deported must be reconsidered. i forced reports from london gathered at london's high court refugee campaigners awaiting a ruling on legal challenges to the british governments. stated, aim to send the vast majority of people seeking asylum in the u. k, automatically to rwanda, to have their claims processed. and if successful to be settled there, for the most part, the judges found in favor of the government. though just as louis writing, we have concluded that it is lawful for the government to make arrangements for relocating asylum seekers to wander and for their asylum claims to be determined in rwanda rather than the u. k. however, the home secretary must consider properly the circumstances of each individual

claimant. the court ruled that had not been done in the case of 8 individual asylum seekers whose deportation her wonder was cooled off in june. out of the european court of human rights intervened, people will have watched you. it's very carefully to day. and they will know now that that is a legal route open to them to challenge any of the decisions made by the home office. and between that situation and the possibility of appeals moving forwards, no one should think that this litigation is going away any time she certainly allowing individuals to challenge deportation to rwanda would undermine the government's claim that the policy would deter them from trying to get to the u k. in the 1st place. this year, the number of people making the short but dangerous crossing from france is up more than a 3rd at around 45000 people. speaking in latvia, britain's prime minister welcomed the ruling while i want to deliver is a system whereby if you come to the u. k. illegally, you will not have the right to stay and we will be able to return you to your own
3:13 am
country if it's safe or a safe alternative. like rwanda, that's a common sense position. i think of the vast majority of the british public. it's my position and that's why i want to deliver is prime minister, the various organizations who were challenging the government policy have of course expressed a deep disappointment at this ruling. but they're also saying that the road is far from run on an individual basis. asylum seekers will still be able to challenge that deportations to rwanda. and as far as a generic decision is concerned, that may well be grounds for appeal. i welcome the judges from the high school to day. the british and secretary has in the past cold for britain to leave the european convention on human rights to allow it more freedom to act. if any appeal against this ruling were to succeed in the european court, it would leave her colleague the prime minister, who studiously avoided that question with a difficult decision to make her equal set out 0. london had hair on al jazeera for his embattled president, has sent to lead the ruling party into the next election despite accusations of
