5:20 pm
uncovered 6 more classified documents. biden's lawyers agreed to the operation and said they're helping investigators about 30 documents to be discovered since the 1st batch was found in november. my county is in washington dc with more than what's been found at biden's house. now at the stage, all that is said is that there were 6 documents which were marked at some level of classified classification, not quite clear exactly what level it was. but also, according to president biden's personal lawyer, the vista gators also took away some handwritten diaries, some notes that president biden had kept all the material relates to his time as a senator more than 30 years, as well as some items coming from his time as vice president, now the investigators went to the biden home in wilmington, delaware by invitation. it was made open to them. they spent some 13 hours there
5:21 pm
from round about 10 o'clock in the morning until late at night. the biden's themselves were not there. they are at the beach house over this weekend, but biden's personal lawyer stressing that he has nothing to hide, that they are attempting to cooperate with the investigators in every single way. and that they will continue to do, says, and make open whatever the investigators want to look into. there is an issue involved here is that the more the republicans criticized president biden for his handling of these documents or the lack of k and handling the documents. it comes into the spotlight, the difference between the way biden is handled it and the way that a former president trump has handled it. in trump's case, the justice department had to seek a warrant to search his premises. donald trump attempted to keep the investigators away from documents for a long period of time, and that was the reason why they got a search warrant. but it's finds a former us associate deputy attorney general. he says many documents shouldn't be
5:22 pm
called classified, even though the government thinks they should be. well, i think it shows a kind of a negligence if you will, hard. the reason i believe is if you know, classification systems here in washington, they are vastly abuse. i mean, probably my view is 90 percent or more of documents classified or not and should not be classified. and so the users of the documents and i have access to them when i was in the justice department become kind of negligent. there's really very little or anything there that seem sensitive and so they don't really pay much attention to being careful about. my suspicion is that if you look at all the class by documents taken from our lago and taken from byte, there's nothing that would cause an ordinary person say, oh my gosh, this is dangerous to the national security. so this is why, even though it's many, many years afterwards where you'd figure that mr. buying would have protocols to go
5:23 pm
through it at a slow basis to see whether he actually took anything. it was never done because no one really think class mind information really means anything and it leaks every day out to the washington post new york times. wall street journal. whenever you want to make a point. and that's why i think you find this kind of situation occurring. they use condemned the widespread violence and peruse during protests against the government . but he's in the capital lima evicted demonstrations on saturday from a university. whether it's set up camp. they want to president in a below or 2 to resign, and a predecessor pedal kasteel to be freed from prism. i am a sanchez reports from lima, with hundreds of police force the we introduce all this university. student activists had allowed protesters to stay there who, peruvians, who travel to the meant to protest against president a university accused of stealing

5:25 pm
a weak us is the government has turned into a dictatorship wearing a dictatorship in the making. unfortunately, printed in blue artes being part of a civilian military regime. it has already implemented addict atoria model because of what we're seeing now with the detainees. on saturday, the european union condemned the violins and what it called the disproportionate use of force by the police were then 50 peruvians have died since protests began 6 weeks ago. international human rights groups are calling for independent investigations. for now, the government says the police is doing its job. ellison to such a seat, i, lima. well, those protests are forced per router closes, famous to a site much prettier, indefinitely rescue teams of evacuated hundreds of tourists stranded at the base of the incursions in august countess trying services into the town had already been

5:27 pm
we had to ship some like more than 10 years ago. they tend to be very disciplined. wilson. i was willing to make a military coup in brazil and could you can vote support from the army from the navy and they are force. so i think they're quite disciplined. is the question just of just suggesting that the starting of the government and i'm pretty sure the army is going to remain under control of the president. and i don't see been doing anything dusty against the, the president police are trying to get her to brazil despite all the problems and all the difficulties we had have kind of assaulted democracy. and there are things to be discipline. of course, they are supported from president to review on that'll be to sounds like army, they're complex institutions. but at the end of the day, i think, you know, law is trying to rule the roost here. and i think he's asking, well, you're running for the am piece in new zealand, have chosen chris hopkins to be the next prime minister. pipkins received unanimous
