republican presidential primary john 100 and reports from iowa, where the campaign was launched. each a rear political turn about a former vice president running against the president to put him in office. i'm announcing that i'm running for president of the united states of america for the 1st time mike pins directly address the elephant, not in the room. donald trump, in his efforts to force pants not to certify jo biden's victory and the 2020 election. the american people deserved to know that on that day, president trump also demanded that i choose between him and the constitution. i chose the constitution and i always the parents formerly launched his run for president in iowa by tradition the 1st day to vote in the nomination process as a long shot with polls showing his support in the single digits. everybody hopes to

catch lightning in the bottle. you never quite know what will happen. we remember that in 2016 when donald trump 1st ran, nobody really took him seriously pencils declaration came as something of an anticlimax. my family has to live the american. he had already filed his intent to run and made his announcement wednesday in a video. his biggest rival is his former boss. now pulling it nearly 50 percent denial between fence and trump. you like pens? yes. you think he's got a shot to with? i think if he does, it starts here in iowa. the relationship between trump and pins went from an air case in 2016 to a political and personal kissed off. when trump tweeted during the congressional riot, mike pence did not have the courage to do what should have been done. the crowd turned against pins dangling a noose in calling for his hanging pittsville last to contend with

a lingering antipathy of those mag or republicans. now these things due to 5, donald trump, expectations, but i was boosted other candidates before you were nowhere in the polling and you even finish 2nd level alone 1st. that's the big story. so in the case of someone like former vice president pens, the key for him perhaps more than anybody else is to exceed expectations. if he doesn't, he's run for president could become the shortest run of his life. john henry and l g 0. anthony iowa. as mexico, as presidents, as the soldiers caught on camera and an apparent execution of 5 civilian men, will be prosecuted, underestimated while lopez over door supports the armies rule in tackling, organized crime. but he said the killings are unacceptable, but an isolated incidents drawn home and reports from mexico city. first of all,

the black truck slammed into the fence. then the army comes. some of the men in the truck can pay top guns. the soldiers pull them out, kicks and then the soldiers appeared to defend themselves from above the threat of camera. and that is when they shoot the prisoners. this is happening. and it was alerted to one of the whole 2 spots who met scope the call to violence. cool, local cctv camera. the extent 18th of may 3 weeks ago. but the shooting of the prisoners is not where it ends off to that one of the soldiers, plants, weapons on the phone with him and careful to use what looks to be a red flag to avoid getting his prints on the guns. one so driven appears to take up the hang cups, they put on a man to make it look like he hadn't been arrested before being shot. the videos caused a lot of questions here in mexico. this is what the armies been accused of suddenly times over the last few years in mexico since it's been brought in to fight

organized crime. extrajudicial killings, the flavor violation of citizens rights, but it's the 1st time that it's been cool. so natively, so openly in front of the camera. the questionnaire was, will there be consequences, especially going up the ranks? forgive somebody, the president lopez over the door, assisted that they would be seeing him, but i thought i said it seems that there were unlawful cooling this and that can't be allowed. we're not the same as the past governments. yeah. so when there is an abuse and excess, a violation of human rights, there has to be punishment of those responsible. and that's already started. the army said in the statement that it's quote pricing with the attorney general's office in the investigation. and that there's no impunity with just a new way to learn to do it. so this is at least the 2nd case of the legs and ami killings this year of to write groups claimed. so just show 5 on oh man in the

allowing john list to use methods like phone hacking to gain information about him that they purchase all the defendants tried to dismantle those claims. drilling down into the details of some of those articles, one outlining of the length and frequency of phone calls between the prince and his and girlfriend chelsea day. the which the princess proves a job is, must have had access to that cool of another which detailed knee injury that the princess was not public knowledge information that could only have been gains unlawfully. he told the quote, my whole life, the press misled me and covered up the wrong doing. but the defense has repeated refrain was, what is the evidence without it these let allegations, or just pure speculation, they will say, pointed to the fact that much of the information mentioned in his articles was already in the public domain. so the mirror group itself should not be singled out and finished by all skiing the prints to identify a single voice mails he knows was have the print said that is hard evidence of

suspicious. now the prints would only need to prove a few of these obligations to indicate is not for the study. and this is his mission to change the culture of media in this country. and to do that, he's not just taking on and they're a group, but also to the other publishes of tabloid newspapers in separate cases. so the result of this case will be explicitly watched sharianda out of their argentine as world cup winner, leon m. s c has confirmed, he's joining in for miami. the 35 year old still needs to finalize the deal with the club, which is co owned by david beckham. messy was linked with former team barcelona, but said the clubs, financial issues ended any hope of a return there. and they also turned down a big money move to saudi arabia's. and he, non, we spoke to major league software commentator one around go. who told us why messy favors a move to the us. he wanted to be more with his family, with his wife, with his sons, and be able to have a different quality of life. and get, i guess,
