7:00 pm
generations, you must never, ever get tired of developing a business. those passages and the just ignited passions to stand up and fight generation chains on l. g 0. and i'm told stories from asia on now to see if the font is charged with a racketeering and conspiring to over to and has 2020 election to feed in georgia. i think also to which ones the the, the problem in this is alan. to see you on line from don't how also coming up russia investigation explosion at a petrol station is august regent that killed at least 35 people. 3 both gary and
7:01 pm
suspects. it was fine for russia had been arrested and charged. and the u. k. dog vastness, they are people crammed in both with no navigation system trying to reach it and not knowing if they will ever make the at 1600 g m t 12 pm in atlanta in the united states with former president donald trump has been indicted for the full time, prosecute as in georgia, excuse him, and his associates, of conspiring to or the turn. the results of the 2020 election and racketeering. trump calls that are what charms and says he will release of a polls on what he described as georgia election for on august 20. first, john hendrick begins coverage from atlanta. for the 4th time, a grand jury has indicted former president donald trump,
7:02 pm
for alleged crimes against the country. he governs leading the series of indictments against trump and others racketeering. a charge that usually targets organized crime rings. in this case, for an alleged conspiracy to steal the states presidential election, the indictment alleges that rather than by abide by georgia legal process for election challenges. the defendants engage in a criminal record ceiling enterprise to overturn george's presidential election. results also indicted. 18 others including former white house chief of staff, mark meadows, trump lawyer, rudolph giuliani, former justice department official, jeffery clark, and former aid. john eastman. the alleged conspiracy included a series of phone calls in which trump pressure georgia officials to overturn jo biden's presidential election victory in the state. including this notorious called
7:03 pm
the secretary of state brad reference berger. i just want to find a $11780.00 loads, which is one more that we have because we want to say that alleged conspiracy also included false accusations and harassment of election workers including ruby freeman, who said she had to go into hiding after trump, fans invaded her grandmother's home to make what they called. the citizens arrest. also contained false allegations for ballot for on. and this was an election that we want to easily. we want to buy a lot. village plot also contained a sick electricity in which trump back the electors tried to form a false slate of electors who sought to flip the state of georgia for trump after his loss. and it involved in extraordinary data breach, and really coffee county were trump partisans were called in. this stands, i would say, in a fruitless search for massive fraud. georgia was just one of several states trunk
7:04 pm
would've needed to win to win the 2020 election. georgia was a special case, it's tended to lean republican and he lost by a small margin, a margin. he asked georgia state republicans to make up to overturn his loss there . the trump campaign issued a link, the statement stating in part they could have brought this 2 and a half years ago, and they chose to do this for election interference reasons. in the middle of president trump's successful campaign. the indictment is the 4th in as many months truck faces date charges in new york for a hush money payment to silence a porn star. ahead of the 2016 electric and to federal indictments in florida for miss handling classified documents and in washington for his efforts to overturn the 2020 election. unlike the federal charges, if proved the georgia state charges cannot be pardoned by the next president, john henry l. g 0, atlanta. and john 100 is joining us live from outside the courthouse in atlanta.
7:05 pm
and we've also had reaction now from trump's pulling lawyer, rudy giuliani. john, who's interested in the pi a near the racketeering app that's being used against him. it is right. julia only use that act to target mafioso as organized, print of those and criminals in new york when he worked for the justice department there. and now he's the subject of that racket to you're in charge and he knows exactly what's involved, but nevertheless, he's double down on it. he is criticizing the people who brought the charges in his statement. he said, this is an upfront to american democracy and does permanent your revenue, irrevocable harm to our justice system. he goes on to blame the democrats, as he describes, the prosecutors and these 4 separate cases for just trying to derail donald trump's 2024 election a bid. so in a sense,
7:06 pm
donald trump is being accused along with juliani of trying to overturn the 2020 election and they're turning the tables and saying, no, no, no. the prosecutors are trying to overturn the 2024 election. so we're getting jumbling down from both trump on the one hand, who says that he's going to hold a news conference. it is the administer resort on monday, in new jersey, and show all the election fraud that he's been claiming all along in georgia. none of which has been substantiated by the many investigations have looked into it, including here in georgia. i and then you've got rudy giuliani dumpling down as well. so if nobody is backing off and saying, oh wait, no, sorry. all right, john, what happens next in this case as well, in this case uh, those 18 defendants along with donald trump, have until next friday at noon to turn themselves in and to face and arraignment.
7:07 pm
that is that sure to parents before the judge in which they say guilty or not guilty, have to hire lawyers and do all of those things. and then begins a really complicated trial. these guys are all charged with racketeering. which ties them together all 19 of them as one allegedly criminal organizations trying to carry out a crime. and in this case, that crime is overturning the presidential election results in the state of georgia . it is a ledge that they were trying to do that in a number of states, but this really just targets to georgia, of course, because this is a georgia prosecutor and ask her jurisdiction to that case goes forward. but because it's so complicated because it involves the rather novel use of that racket tearing k charge and because it involves 19 defendants. and the prosecutor said that she wants to try them all at once in the same trial. this is likely to have a lot of delays to go on. she wants to move very quickly on this case where there
7:08 pm
are plenty of opportunities for delays. and for this to drag on until after the 2024 election and trump and says he is going to run and there's nothing about this that would stop him from doing so. what john, thank you for that. john hendrick live in atlanta, georgia, and earlier i spoke to cliff finkelstein, who is the faculty director of the center for ethics and the little i began by asking her how the prosecutor presented a case against donald trump. it's funny, well, this is an effect saying that this was a mass of attempt to engage in the distortion of an a falsification of the georgia elections that involved to many, many people that it was planned over a period of time that it has many different moving parts to it and that you can't see it as a solo crime. and that's very different, quite a contrast from the of interest that jack smith took on the federal level. though
7:09 pm
many of the same defendants are involved in the jack smith statement as an indicted co conspirators. okay. and finally, will, will, as has said, that the right she likes to use this racketeering asked because it connects so many adults. and that she said that jew is like in summation, but cannot work against the prosecution because it can be so long and complicated. that's right. 6, dream lee complex, again, just the opposite of the other federal indictment and it will take a very, very long time to prosecute that will be norm. this number of witnesses. it's a gamble, one in vantage. so it's with so many defendants in there. those defendants may start to turn, and i think she's likely fainting on that. so one could well imagine someone like
7:10 pm
john eastman, for example, the professor who is the really the architect of the full a task on the january 6th certification of the vote. and who came up with the plan for attacking the certification on that date. which one could imagine him saying, you know what, i'm going to take a plea here in exchange for providing evidence against donald trump and that a number of the defendants might start to flip. so i think she's taking a gamble that some of that will start to happen as to why the news now and at least $35.00 people have been told and an explosion that a petrol station and southern russia children romando ac injured in the last. indeed, the san region, some of the critically wounded having flown to hospital in moscow. nearly a shop of all the was following developments from moscow. they local authorities,

7:12 pm
the laser has gone back since began after a permanent combined with his captain. vive ron and faction. ma with holmes as fast as controlled much of tripoli. the day we'll see him handed over to a neutral policy, opposing sides of bathrooms for control of the countries and small monk. adolphe was deposed and kills 12 years ago. sweeping gary and suspected of spying for russia had been arrested and charged and brushed and they've been in custody since of february. now they've been charged with possessing fake identity documents of what police cool and profit intention. sonya guy ego has moved from london. a 2 man and one women have been charged with possessing identity documents with the intention of improper usage. 3, a boat carrying nationals, all, all in. russo who is facing this, the technical assistance in the financial services. he's also

7:14 pm
the former russian intelligence officer alex on the vehicle was, according to the u. k. government's assassinated by someone hired by the russian government. 9 back in 2018. that was the case of this boy thing of the script house in the city of souls free using a ministry break. none of agents, no big chunk of this coming out of time when the u. k. has been a vocal support. so all the crane during the russian invasion, and this will not likely help any of the tensions between the 2 countries. so when you got ya go, i'll just sarah london, a whole into showing office military mind is it celebrates armed forces day and will. so the holiday commemorates as victory over the soviet union. in 1920. the celebration comes as tension grows in the a, poland, east, and border with the russian was the most. and the group has set on base. and that of who's also responded by deploying troops to the area a summer,
7:15 pm

7:16 pm
where the, the polish government is trying to tell people that it stands for a strong army is strong, border presents and a strong and the immigrant policy, which is kind of the opposite of what the opposition parties have been promising because this country is going to be heading towards elections in about 8 weeks time . so everything here that is happening, whether it's the build up on the abilities and border are the largest military parade on, on the day. it is all being seen as politically that makes from the body, which is in power to try and who voters. and it is being criticized by the opposition or some of the drivers of the 0 or some to the head on knowledge, a 0 more on why don't, doesn't to us said they running low on drugs, including those with cancer patients twice. i'm talking to each other in front of the dock of civic corporation hospitals. i'll bring to the latest update from the allow me rise. i've done a favor in bangladesh, the

7:18 pm
downpours coming into the picture here. and what was, once our type phone is now rolling across the waters between korea and japan, this will become a story for the far east of russia. so just to the east of lot of us talk about a 100 millimeters of rain. so there is the threat of seeing some funding there over the next little bit for this part of southeast asia. the ring continues to fall for a central areas of sumatra, island and northern areas of borneo island on the website brought to you by visit castle. when match day arrives, the green army comes to life with football is not all they shout about a club where societies disenfranchised of the loudest voice. and political defence takes center stage. they on the roof goes resistance. the officers of roger casablanca, defends,
7:19 pm
who make football on which is the the the, the watching outlanders here with me, elizabeth trying them in the reminder of our top stories, the cell phone with us president donald trump has been indicted for the full time prosecutors in georgia accused him and his associates are conspiring to overturn the results of the 2020 election and racketeering. 35 people have been killed in an explosion of petrol station in southern russia, chosen among the age he injured in the last and the balance of san region. and free bound, gary and suspects of mine for russia had been arrested and charged and worse than
7:20 pm
they have been in custody since february. now they've been charged with possessing space identity documents with what police called and the intention hundreds of people have been rescued of the mediterranean, off the coast, especially in recent days. maybe a 100000 mile inside of asylum seekers have arrived on boats and actually this yes, hold on double what it was this time last year was out then home. it was on a fishing boat south and beyond end of long producer, it is just before sunset that they set of brothers nicola and kilo gentlemen niels, embarking on a nightly fishing trip, but they need to be mindful that they could be others out there at large when we see a boat ridge of the coast guards and then pass the coordinates, if we see that is going to slow port a bunch of sync, we stay, we can just give them if they're sinking, we transport them. but we always need to get authorization. first, taking on board migrants even in distress,
7:21 pm
is illegal. the boat sales south of lumpy do the this is the same route to migrant state when they set off from the shores of tunisia. so the crew needs to be on the alert because in the dark, small vessels could go unnoticed. there's a breeze. the see is called perfect weather conditions was saying. but it's really hard to imagine that in this dark vastness, there are people crammed in boats with no navigation system trying to reach italy and not knowing if they will ever make it on board. there's always a little apprehension as the group pulls out there and it was just a few months ago that the skeleton was found still was some clothes on. many lumpy do is uh refer to the mediterranean as the liquid graveyard. about 2000 people have lost their lives here so far this year. the 1st tax is modest, the 2nd one is better, but it is a piece of wood entangled and in that, in
7:22 pm
a box or do i have this from a migrant. she protects as nicola, he recognized it from the type of wood. it's a part of the house. of course, it's difficult, it's dangerous because they are 30 saved lives and leave that bites of drift. we work at night and it's easy to collide with these, but also on that's get damaged by the ones at the bottom of the seat. by 4 am the right there. signal the boat, a few 100 meters to our right. there's no light due to a shore, it's a magazine boat that it was, but they don't change the direction. we need to find out that it could have been this one that was a drift along the same coordinates, the talent, what the defense i had to reach them. the water was sleeping in a disaster, narrowly averted. more rescues happens throughout the night. as the sun rises, the summer colors emerge again to risk get ready for another day in the sunshine.
7:23 pm
unbeknownst to them, 350 people rescue that night were making their way to the port. while hundreds of others were being relocated elsewhere on the mainland. for that then how many jersey are allowed to do? so maybe one week hospital wall, fos swept across the hawaiian island of molly cruz, a still searching for victims. 199 people have gone, but the states governor was number is expected to rise significantly. teams on the ground all making progress, sifting through the town of le hi non. but if she have her tons, the reports identifying the remains is proving difficult as a team. as 90 plus no, i'm 20. could the dogs have been searching through the wreckage of the high now and they have made some progress at the weekends. it just 3 percent of the towns have been searched. now the figure is 25 percent. the problem has been identified, but human asher is left behind. over a 1000 people remain on the counter full. we actually have 3 possible notifications
7:24 pm
from fingerprints. 3. so i don't have more than 3, so there's $96.00 that we don't have fingerprints. the price of informing relatives of these identified will begin on tuesday. residents of the height of our expressing the frustration of not being allowed to return to assess the damage themselves. our temple is um, you know, is a historical site and we do have some things that i saw that are made out of metal and stone that are still remaining. and i just wanna make sure that we are able to secure those things. and we've already done with so much party, it's just like to have to deal with more hard on top of that is just, you know, i would like to be able to like, secure but it's because with all these believe of human remains that distributed widely throughout the rubble access remains restricted. they have to be very careful, very careful not to disrupt any of the homes there. so for those people who have
7:25 pm
walked into the china, because they really want to see know that they are very likely watching on easy. as the chief of police said the other day, that's why we're being so careful. the police chief, so he's hopeful of 85 and 95 percent of us. um 2200 damage structures and behind would have been searched by the weekend. although he says that timeline may slip messages, remains consistent of authorities over the last several days expects the desktop to rise share but it has the out 0 behind my doctors in the us of running low on medication for cancer patients supplies rancho, we'll talk to production was hosted as india, the us as well and replacements from china, but congress was being pulled the american of alliance on file and supplies as a security risk. why does your cost reports from washington dc? dr. amanda state or with johns hopkins medicine, says the cancer drug shortage in the united states amounts to a public health crisis. it's devastating as an oncologist we,
7:26 pm
we live to help our patients live longer better lives. and so not having the tools that are disposable that we know can help our patients achieve, this is, is terrible. it says platen is credited as the drug that changed cancer treatment. 50 years ago. skyrocketing the cure rate of testicular cancer and also effective against long breast and a very and cancers in june of 70 percent of us cancer center said they were short on the drug in 93 percent. so they were short on the related drug. carbo plan. it is the drug, there isn't anything that works as effectively what he this is the drug i need 41 year old carrie true can ski has stage 3 ovarian cancer, but she hasn't received carbo platinum due to the shortage. these are very cheap drugs and uh, and the manufacturers are not really incentivized to create quality drugs in this
7:27 pm
scenario because they're not getting a lot of profit from manufacturing. these drugs and just dollars per dose. drug makers largely rely on cheaper manufacturing in china and india. so when a factory and india had to help production of car will flatten in november, due to quality concerns, the global supply quickly dwindled. our continued over reliance on foreign suppliers for the key materials needed to make critical drugs. primarily those in china remain at an acceptable national security risk. the u. s. is allowing the temporary importance as platinum from china at least until the shortage improves. but every day drugs including children's pain medicines have also experienced recent shortages due to similar supply chain problems. both parties in congress have introduced measures that would broaden regulations and incentivized drug makers to increase production, but those solutions would take time. meanwhile,
7:28 pm
patients and doctors say time is the enemy when live saving treatments are needed now, and they urge the government to declare a public health emergency. heidi jo, castro, elders 0 washington bundled, this is battling is, was a few of the outbreak on record. more than 400 this and 87000 infection. so things reported x that say climate change and pull sanitation or among the reasons for the outbreak. sunbridge, all 3 supports from dhaka. as the mountain rains intensify across bung with dash along with high humidity and heat that are fears that den get fever outbreak will get worse. a nose marked or had to rush or 11 year old son to a private hospital because she couldn't find any recommendation in a government around the hospital and medical emergency increasingly becoming come across the country after he was diagnosed with thing d. within

7:30 pm
build up in the vital organs causing refractory shop. and eventually that up to my never uh, dealing with these times that don't get situation is very critical. and like before, was the doctors and patients are facing much more challenging clinical issues compared to previous years. the world health organization is also warning cases of dangle fever worldwide. good rich record highs this year, partly due to global warming and the half of the world population is now at risk of contracting. den get involved with the shakes, but say, erratic weather condition and poor drainage and sanitation. possibly to blame for the rising dang it. and have ards, of the government for more quoting aided an efficient response to deal with the crisis trying bitch all day. i'll just data dot com, the hello again. i'm in the front.
