6:03 am
2081 1000000 americans voted for joe biden. but trump deliberately ignore the truth, that his loss was fair, despite being informed otherwise, by credible advisors, many times as documented in the indictment. instead, trump continually repeated what prosecutors called prolific lies that the election had been stolen. we will never give up where you will never can see. that doesn't happen. you don't get the indictment list 6 on named co conspirators that likely include rudy giuliani accusing them of helping trump to pressure state election officials, the justice department and then vice president mike pins to fraudulently tossed out votes for bided when they all refused. according to the indictments from directed his supporters to stop congress from certifying biden's when that turned into a violent attack on the us capital leading to 5 deaths. it was fueled by
6:04 am
lies sliced by the defendant, targeted at obstructing a bedrock function of the us government. and nations process of collecting, counting and certifying the results of the presidential election in an online statement from accused prosecutors of acting on behalf of bi, didn't to interfere with the upcoming presidential election and which trump invited could face off again. the 2 are currently tied in polls. the white house has declined to comment. trump has been summoned to appear before the magistrate judge here in d. c on thursday, and all eyes will once again beyond the former us president, forced to answer the yet more criminal charges. but most notably, this case facing accusations actually try to overturn the legitimate results of a democratic election. heidi jo, castro, out to 0, washington candidates bring in clear single stage. he is the director of the sense
6:05 am
of ethics and the role of law at the university of pennsylvania. she joins us now from new hampshire. thank you very much for being on al jazeera festival. from what you've been able to say. so if i, how strong is this case against donald trump? it is an extremely strong case because it charges him with conspiracy along with 6 uninvited co conspirators whose actions have been well document. and so it's, though the justice department does not typically name uninvited co conspirators, it's fairly clear who the individuals are and what according that has taken place for many, many months, it has made clear what their contribution has been. for example, john eastman, who was the lawyer who crafted the original blueprint that launched the january 6 insurrection,
6:06 am
and convinced helped to convince donald trump that he could indeed prevail in the 2020 election. despite the clear and was founding a failure at the polls. and so the complicity of these lawyers and 5 of the 6 are clearly lawyers is absolutely a parent has been a parents for some time. and the fact that they lent their services to donald trump to both convince him and to collude with him. just steal the 2020 election um and to overturn the will of the voters. will be very convincing to a federal jury, as we heard just before the special council jack smith described transactions as an attack on democracy. and how important is this case for american democracy and the rule of law in the us? in my opinion,
6:07 am
august 1st 2023 will be remembered by this indictment as one of the most important moments for restoring the rule of law. practically since the end of the civil war in this country ringing an indictment against a former president, a president who has convinced about a quarter of the us population that he actually won an election that he boss, is critical. not just because it contributes to setting up the setting the tables right with regard to the actual law, but also because it helps to rectify the mass of disinformation campaign that donald trump and his allies have been on ever since. the 2020 election which he lost. and so the cool clarity, for example. but jack smith spoke with today in his statement,
6:08 am
was designed not just to make a legal appeal, but to make an appeal to the country and to its morals and to its democratic foundations. so that we understand how the democrat collections take place in this country and that no one is un, under any illusions about, in fact our elections work. how much huge and so you do you think that is from the d o j to try and get this case to trial as quickly as possible? you know, obviously before the elections in november next year. well, here's the spectra that looms over a soul. if donald trump were to be elected president, and there were to be an ongoing trial at that point, and so no conviction were yet to have come in. the country would be in a constitutional crisis of and paralleled proportions. because at that point we have as
6:09 am
a background principal from the department of justice based on the 3 demos that have really been adhered to quite strongly over time that a sitting president cannot be indicted. now this would be a very different situation. this would be a situation of which an individual who was previously indicted could potentially become president. and what would the principal then be? but were donald trump to become president with a trial still hanging over his head, he could immediately, sorry these trials, he could replace the attorney general. he could replace jack smith, he would indeed, and he could start attacking his enemies and using the department of justice. not to restore the rule of law, but of course, to punish anyone who had tried to hold him accountable for his crimes. so we would be in a very bad position indeed, if these convictions had,
6:10 am
did not come in prior to the election. however, we must remember, of course, i'm talking about convictions that any criminal defendant, donald trump included, is presumed innocent. okay, until proven guilty. yeah, thank you so much. that is clear, finkelstein director of the santa fe ethics and the role of law at the university of pennsylvania. thank you. thank you. the fronts has begun evacuating european nationals from these year following last week's crew. the operation began not to tax on the french embassy in the capital in the army, and the closure of the countries borders off the president's moment, presume, was deposed victoria guys and p reports as an adult in the capital, naomi, the 1st french citizens arrive ahead of their evacuation flights, how many to jerry and say that pleased french people are leaving the country food
6:11 am
if one of them is a pre k as an african, i can say that all the problems that africans are experiencing in new jersey and in africa it's from so that's at the root of suffering, and we've seen the example of money and book in a fossil. so we to a, going to follow in the footsteps because old friends has to do is to leave. diplomats in paris have been working around the clock to evacuate citizens from the georgia after president my have a buzz who was deposed last week. the guy was one of the world's poorest countries and relies heavily on financial support from west and back is in the regional blog equis. most of that aid has been frozen because of because the military rulers in neighboring molly and became a fast so have criticized the funding freeze, saying the poor us will be hit. hardest french troops ordered to leave. monte recently refused deputy, curious as on. so is it a go, we refuse to apply these a legal, illegitimate and inhumane sanctions against the people of needs?

6:13 am
it can be kind enough and choose is to protect its interest. do you believe that means removing africa limits to lock this street? i like dig it up as the leaders of the crew have announced the suspension of uranium exports to friends and all the european countries. and they were wanting the west on the glass not to order a military intervention. victoria gates and be i'll just there and cynical, at least 2 people have been killed in violence between police and all positions. support has optic has been sun coast potty was dissolved, sol strep. it has more from deka. the senegalese opposition supposes clash with police in one of many demonstrations across the country. they're angry about the real rest of the position leader or some, some good government closing down as political policy over simple month to month. be able, pretty though you're asking president my to solve to release sunk with no conditions . not everyone likes sancho,

6:15 am
the rest is in charge with right, which he was eventually acquitted. in june, he was convicted in, i've sent you the corruption of use and sentence to, to use in jail. but he never went to prison because it's believe the government deemed putting him behind. bars could cause more unrest. but he's late, he's the rest shows that may now have changed. we are not used to these tensions in riots. we are a good democracy, a country of peace, and we should keep that going. sancho, suppose societies is just the latest attempts my present lucky solve to try and prevent him by whatever means running next days. elections. analysts say democracy in this country is very much on the back foot in a region which is already suffered to numerous military coups, a significant political instability in recent years. to scrap it out

even brief will worse than an already die or humanitarian crisis center for their eligibility to on the outskirts of i know how do we tourists in southern mexico? i'm being offered a chance to see what oceans might have looked like millions of years ago. but it's off to scientists and fishermen discovered the 2nd deepest blue hall on this john home and went to have a look floating above the biggest blue host in the americas stretches at least 274 meters beneath the sea bed. here, just off the coast of mexico, as you can tell me, peninsula was discovered by his whose ports that in the maple purpose of it, i was old. my father was a diver and he went off to a big group, but he was chasing it and it went into the whole. and that's when he saw it for the 1st time. that was 20 years ago of to that the who was the golden just one of many
6:25 am
in this by until his who speak. i'm working with x. but on carlos i'll set it up. i mentioned it or they went back and measured. it were still nice, but step one though, no, let's go with them this. oh, i see. i felt like a pirate in the caribbean when they discovered a treasure because it was something new, like a trace route as well. we knew we had to keep it secret until we could check it. i be, i must get the most, give us a lot of that. now they can talk. they verified it as a 2nd deepest blue hole in the world and named it tom ha, the pool to remind the language here. tom was formed by changing sea levels per boat, but a being and flowing glassy is thousands of years ago. but it's moved in just an erosion feature, so it's one carlos. it's a window into another time for k, let's go to the seo and this is a host on the conditions and our oceans millions of years ago were similar to the whole. now, what a lot of boxes using the water, limited light,
6:26 am
large amounts of pressure. so it's a chance to see all these processes go south in this unique space. so put that in and get on. and it's not just the pulse that come, ha, could open the door to this blue hole. could even tell us what life is like on other planets without the light and the oxygen that we have on us. and even perhaps, how we and other species might survive the, in the back of the lab, one color shows is what time half looks like below the like what's on the sun during the boat. since both is of sound down on each pulse of sound gives us the depth of each point. and when we put together the cloud of all those points, we get the shape of the hold up in the form. and to now will that scientists have found inside a copy to bacteria? i will go and see snow, but they hope to find new spaces in due course of the waiting for thousands of
6:27 am
years. tom ha is still giving up its mystery slowly. john home and i would just say to calculate this mix code the book, stalls along the river, sand and paris among the most iconic symbols of the french capital. but the majority of them had been ordered to close up the news before the opening ceremony of next year as a big games. and as types of stokes reports. not too happy about this of the, the selling of 2nd handbook selling the river, the same dates back nearly 500 is the conic greenville stoles have held us go world heritage state to since 1991. but most of them will need to move for security reasons next year to make way for the unique opening at the parish 2024 olympics. the 1st episode, germany to be held outside the stadium and free to the public. 600000 people are expected to watch as athletes, and delegations sale along the river and a new also as you me to set to. that will be a policy in paris. i'm with joy as for these policy. but we see a lot of booksellers around one to 2,

and they want to exclude us from the policy. today, there were 900 green, stoles, stretching 3 kilometers through the centre of paris, making it the largest open at book market in europe. the same was once described as the only river in the world that stretches between 2 bookshelves, reassemble red hill. we're amazing. the symbol of paris. tourists come to see us as they do for the eiffel tower, loos, we're not your dumb system, but we are raising and rejecting these major symbol. it's as if we're disassembling the awful top because it's too tall to fit inside the frame. the book sale is known as the book and these have been off at a spot nearby, in a so called bookseller village to the duration of the games. and authorities say they'll be compensated for the relocation costs and any damage caused. the dentist said, well, look at the condition of this container. this container is at least a 100 years old. if he's moved this container would not survive the operation. moving the morale of the booksellers,
6:29 am
some local residents and tourists share the concerns of the book sellers, and then know why they will be doing this because it's part of the affair is experience the new, the security. we do so many things for security reasons, but sometimes it's unnecessary in my opinion, is all call you for the purposes more important than one event. but this completes the temporary the olympics is less than a year away now, but what of the last 2 weeks? whereas after hosp, the millennium, the tradition of selling books on the banks of the same will no doubt last for a lot longer than that. they've had stokes out just a ro. nessa has picked up a signal from its deep space voyager to pro about the 2 weeks of silence. it's 46 years since voyage of blasted off to study the alpha planets offer i to era cause the signal loss 19000000000 kilometers from this blankets. twin boys one the space craft uh, the only man made objects to venture into the void between this task. linda spoke.

it is the voyage admission project scientist and this is jet propulsion, the bar tree. she explains why the boy just buys croft a still important to scientific research. they still matter today because we are exploring that space between the stars. that's compose a lot of hydrogen, and helium, we get the composition the magnetic field and get to basically sense and figure out what that space between the stars might be like. it's filled mostly with the products from supernova, explosions, giant stars that exploded and put their material into space. and it's giving us knowledge about our role, the bubble that's protecting the solar system in the earth when it plays, then perhaps some ideas about how we might have gotten here, how the solar system formed and how the planets in our solar system formed as well . the list of filters here, these are the top stories,
