ah, i mccloud, this is out there alive from there all to come. we are hundreds of thousands of teachers transport workers, public servants walk out in the biggest day of industrial action in the u. k. in more than a day, a silent strike in miramar and riley's overseas mark 2 years since military's power and prayer forgiveness and peace. pope frances holds a mass in democratic republic of congo. the crowd of more than a 1000000 watches, also 7 time as super bowl winner. tom brady finally retired as a legendary american football saw made the announcement vice social ah so the f b i is conducting a search of you as president jo biden's home in the state of delaware. this comes

as part of a special counsel investigation into his handling of classified material. biden's personal attorney said the president gave his full support and cooperation to the investigation in january and found several classified documents in violence of the day they were home in wilmington. it's unclear if any have been found on wednesday . let's me not to peruse fine. who's a former us associate deputy attorney general joins us live from washington d. c. so bruce funds are, what do you make of this latest news? i think this is an example of the f b i and mister biden, wanting to show he's got nothing to hi. i'm like mr. trump. he consented to this so that there are no limits on the places to be searched in his speech house. so he's trying to distinguish himself with this cooperation from trump. now the relevant statute under investigation requires proof. not only that classified information was taken from a place where it was not authorized,

but it was with the intent to remove them indefinitely or permanently. and i think what we have here is a situation where the openness of mr biden is showing that he did. he didn't have any intent to keep the documents. he didn't really know that they were in his, his premises. my own view is that the larger underlying story here is that having myself been engaged in dealing with class by documents that the over classification problem is huge and presidents. and now we have vice president pants as well. they don't find what they're reading that's caused by very sensitive, much more than the read in the new york times, or the washington post or the wall street journal. and so they make errors like this because they don't remember that this was really cost by it because it doesn't seem sensitive, right? i was really a classified, something like 50000000 documents, something crazy like that. but how was it?

how is it to be a garage or why do they just, why do they ever leave the white house? the leads because presidents don't always stay in the white house. and at the end of a presidential term, typically presidents have their libraries, they pick up, they take the documents that they've utilized during their presidency and take them and put them in store them for use, maybe writing memoirs or in presidential libraries. and sometimes they mistakenly include classified information because there's nothing in the content that really leaps out. that is, you're not finding, you know, blueprints for building nuclear weapons. and i do think it's rather telling that after months, months and months, the lapse in the beginning of the 1st a warrant search on mr. trumpet, mar lago. we still don't have a single crumb of evidence that any of these documents compromise. the national security of the united states and knowing how washington works if there really was

something sensitive in the documents they were discovered, you would be a nanosecond. there'd be some roller would print them in read, write a story and we have complete 0. nothing is big noise being made by both sides of the media fence about these biden documents. it, this is a false equivalent to draw comparisons with the trump holds on. i think that they're, they're really in the, there's some overlap, obviously, because the documents were taken. you know, outside the white house and you know, private premises. the difference is that mr. trump is tried to fight at every turn, returning the documents, even perhaps lying about them, and you needed search warrants to go into mar lago. he wasn't consenting. mister biden is played an open book all the time. i don't know how much those actual differences are going to make. my own view has always been that it really want mister by and to show that he's different. he should waive all of this incumbent

presidential privileges like executive privilege, state secrets. you can't be indicted or prosecuted, sitting president and actually testify. and i say there was a similar incident in my career here when president gerald ford was accused of having a quid pro quo and pardoning nixon. if nixon resigned, it was a big storm. he went up any voluntarily testified before the house judiciary committee and the whole story went away in next day. and by inconsistency do that, he can waive his privilege. you can say, listen, i'll go up and testify, you ask me anything you want about these documents, take a look at him and the whole story would go away with regard to mr. bite. that in my judgement is what he ought to do. but having worked in the executive branch, i know everybody is saying, oh, you can't do that because that a president and then this guy will fall. right. i don't think that's good advice. i'm sure he's getting that it. yeah. and so it goes on. everything is great, get your perspective,

appreciate it. thanks very much. indeed. thank you. nearly half a 1000000 people in england and wales. taken part in the biggest strike in more than a decade, teaches public transport workers, civil servants, all among those. joining the walk out. it comes as union step up their campaign to demand better wages and working conditions. most trains in england, not running. and there are a long queues at airports, u. k, as seen, some of the biggest increases in prices of fuel, food and housing. a protest as say their wages is simply not enough to cope with. the rising costs of living teaches a striking in england and whilst the day because there has been over the last 12 years, really conscious of it, long term decline in that pay teachers of last 13 percent over that period. that's in real terms. a huge amount to lose, and that is causing rate recruitment and retention crisis in our schools. so schools can't get teachers and teachers out saying in the profession. and that's

the talk with a combination of overwork underpay. so teachers are saying very reluctantly, none of the people behind me wants to be on strike today, but they are saying very reluctantly that enough is enough. i'm the things have to change. i let you know from the bucket. it's at least more than a decade since quite so. many trade unions from different sectors, converse in central london here on whitehall, a stone's throw from number 10 to collectively make their voices heard. she mentioned that train drivers. teachers are rebels of 1st off from universities as well, of civil servants of all gathered here to make their voices heard. and of course, they all singing from the same hymn sheet calling for better pay better working conditions. amid soaring, inflation, commonly around 10 and a half percent, particularly when it comes to teaches they. in recent years, i've seen their work levels increase massively,

but their real pay levels have continued to full for more they some joined by the former lead of the opposition labor party, jeremy colbin. i'm who of course has been a very prominent figure when it comes to standing out for workers' rights in recent years. thank you very much for joining as well. so let's start with the teachers, specifically. how hard is it to be in that profession at the moment to think very hard. they are under enormous pressure of workload of rising class sizes in some parts of the country and a huge amount of inspection that takes place them. so they're under the caution under pressure the whole time. and the numbers of young teachers that said, qualify, stay 2 years and can't take it any more and leave. and we had a young teacher speaking just now to love to job. she was a 4th generation of her family to be a teacher and said she just called stanley long and the so many are actually accessing food banks in order to survive their on very low wages and enormous pressure. mammals genta has extended

a traffic accident. the doctor tries to patch him up, but aside from stitching and cleaning the wound, there's very little that can be done. medical supplies are scarce to model the military government, right? this is that they cut food and medicine to the area. when there is fighting. we have to connect with local resist, ankles to solve the problem. now, even places of worship on safe villages say this church was burned down by the army in the summer, but no one can get in to rebuild or repair. because the errors heavily mind it's a tactic the military uses frequently. i mean, you know, they are many land minds. we retrieve more than 700 land miles from john da village, which the enemy has planned it. they use it as protection when they're weak. we have lost many lives lakes and now to land mines of suffer more because of the minds that in battle back in the village. the body of those formula is ready to be

where the mass took place at pope frances lead. a black man who died at the hands of us police officers will be laid to rest. later on wednesday, the family of terry nichols gathered at a church in the city of memphis. on the eve of his, you know, to call for police reform. they were joined by community and religious leaders. 5 officers have been fired and charged for the fatal b t vehicles on january the 7th. well, for many, this latest example of print police brutality is also reminiscent of the $991.00 being of rodney king in los angeles. i to say it's a sign of how little has changed since then. john, 100 reports from chicago, and a warning you may find some images in his report. distressing. i protest after protest in the united states in recent years, activists have insisted they won't be fooled again. why do you want it now? many thought they'd seen progress. now the fatal police beating

a tiring nichols in memphis has many questioning whether they've made any headway at all in stopping police brutality against african americans. i thought this was over with after george floyd, i really did is the head of black lives matter in lake county, illinois. clyde macklemore, no wide eyed optimist. had found new hope in recent years. but one incident after another, his dashed in the state of policing has not changed us. jim crow, this is, it was in about 7 black police officers. it was about policing in this country. each incident bears the name of a black victim from the deadly police, choking of george floyd in minneapolis to the crippling shots, fired into the back of the surviving jacob blake. and no, she was content. the memphis assault was so ferocious, it reminded many of the brutal 1991 los angeles police beating of rodney king also

captured on video. since then police have grown more militarized, but they're also more monitored. there's been progress and holding police. busy accountable for misbehavior through technologies that record what they do at the scene. there's not been progress on the street toward repairing the fracture relationship between black, urban america and police officers. last year, police killed nearly 1200 people in the us, according to the nonprofit group mapping police violence more than in any year. in the past decade in black americans made up 26 percent of them, though they make up just 13 percent of the population across the country. it's not just communities that are demoralized. it's also the police themselves here in chicago over the past year. they've up recruitment efforts, bringing and 950 new officers, and it's still well short of the 1000 and more who's left. once again in chicago,

new york, los angeles, and now in memphis. across the us, demonstrators are lamenting the death of another black men in the hands of police. reevaluating the state of civil rights in america, john henderson, al jazeera chicago. an underwater volcano has run to delphi archipelago venue to the south pacific ships and aircraft. be want to avoid the area which is about 70 kilometers north of the capital. port villa clouds of ash and debra have been seen rising above the east epi volcano. no salami was detected, but people on surrounding islands all being urged to stay away from the const line . missing radioactive cap, still considered to be a significant risk to people, has been recovered in the australian outback. after large such operation, the hazardous k 0137 was inside, equipment used a mine iron or it fell from

a truck on a 1400 kilometer stretch of road in western australia. the mining company ripped into as apologize. i really want to get, get people together really to express your gratitude today, fast to, to the side government to everybody that has been involved in a successful search for these capture. when you think about a pretty incredible recovery, when you think of the distances involved and also the remoteness of, of the terrain. and i think that really speaks to the tenacity. all of the eyes that were involved in the search. so now new green lights can be seen in the sky. comments on a 50000 year journey is making a closest past earth perhaps for the last time. they go straight away to call him bake, who joins this lie from the country village about guerara. said colin, 50000 years ago. the question is, can we see it?

while we're here as far from any artificial light as these astro photographers could find in cutter and the comet just appeared from behind a cloud. let me just show you what we've set up. so there are about 5 or 6 telescopes. there are 3 astro photographers and a bunch of friends. a school groups just pulled up, and they're all pointed at one spot in the sky in the north near polaris the north star in the camel port, dallas galaxy constellation that's also known as the giraffe. and it's there that comment 2022 e 3 that t f just appeared from behind the cloud. now i have to say with the full moon, it's very, very difficult to see with the naked eye. but this telescope here has it, has a screen next to it and you can see it right there. they've pulled it up green and glowing. we don't see the tails yet, but we should soon. now bear in mind this comment is 40000000 kilometers away. that's a 100 times the distance from here to the moon, so it poses no threat to us down here on earth. but it is

a subject of study for amateurs here and for scientists around the world before it departs, presumably forever. yeah, indeed, it's fascinating. what is it about, comments? make some say in throwing an important for astronomers? well, for us down here, it's their glow and their rarity, they don't visit very often, at least the bright ones that were seen now. but for astronomers, comets are the materials of the solar system that were pushed out as far as they could possibly be pushed from the sun in those early violent days when planets were created. and there was a lot of collisions happening here. it's thought that out there in those distant regions is where some of the complex chemicals were able to develop. the ones that are essential for life and it comets are mostly water, their rock and their, these gases. and so when comments approach the earth or from that distant round, which we can't see, they're studied intensely,

probes have been sent to collect their dust to smash into them. we've even landed on a comment in 2014. at the end of this decade, the european space agency is sending our mission up to wait for a comma in order to capture one to night and into february. you have telescopes from spain to chile, to hawaii, even the james web telescope are all looking at this. com at e 3 said t f. and they're going to be looking at the gases that come off it at the dust that comes off it and they're going to be studying the composition to see if some of those chemicals, the ones that are essential for life here on earth, are present in these distant relics of the solar system. yeah. science apart is always a magical thing, isn't it? it a rare passing in the heavens above and calling beta. thanks for that. thank you. now and if our legend tom brady says he's retiring in this time, he is is it is for good. the 7 times superbowl when i made the announcement on social media brings to an end 23 year playing career. this however, is not the 1st time. brady has said he's retiring. he had announced he was ending

his playing days last year, only to return for another season. at 45 rhodes played at 20 seasons for the new england patriots before moving to tampa bay buccaneers. in 2020. good morning guys . i'll get to the point right away. i'm retiring for good. i know the process. i was a pretty big deal last time. so when i woke up this morning, i figured i just brushed record. let you guys know 1st. so i won't be long winded, you only get one super emotional retirement essay and i use my not last year. so really thank you guys so much to every single one of you for supporting me. ah say this is our dessert, these all the top stories in the f b i. i'll conducting a plan such a president job.
