oh. this is deja vu news live from berlin president trumps racist taunts against 4 minority lawmakers rouse his republican base. his supporters shout sandro back as he lists the lawmakers names but will trump's riffs on race help to win another term in the white house. also coming up the fight to contain a global health emergency after the world health organization raises the alarm over in poland it says one woman might have carried the deadly disease out of congo and

into neighboring countries and in the 2 case fizzles out in court we look at why prosecutors decided to drop criminal charges against hollywood stars kevin spacey people accused of groping a teenager. i'm sumi so misconducts good to have you with us what started as a racist tweet has become a rallying cry for supporters of donald trump at a campaign rally in north carolina u.s. president repeated his attacks on several democratic congresswoman trump burst on a tweet that he had sent earlier this week telling the lawmakers to go back to their countries despite most of them having been born in the u.s. . donald trump has critics and he made sure to share some of their names in front of his raucous fans represented. alexandria ok 000-000-0000 extension 000

was she don't keep i am the presley ilan or mark was at the mention of omar the 37 year old minnesota congresswoman from a somali refugee family the crowd began to chant send her back. to. the field with the ridiculed call themselves the squad they are all young all women of minority ethnicities they also represent a new left wing of the democratic party calling for progressive legislation like universal health care a federal jobs program and free college tuition i didn't know there's a suggestion for the hate filled extremists who are constantly trying to tear our country down they never have it is a good decision that's why i say hey if they don't like it a little believe let them move was to many observers trump speech was shocking a u.s. president telling nonwhite congresswoman to leave the country but at the rally it

was a hit it's one way of me feeling connected to my president never before in mine life time was i so involved in the political arena and the goals that the like i can reach out and touch whatever i want black game because it's my 26 rally and i ask always support our president because he supports our prosecutors your rights and a lot of my cock and all. the racist rhetoric may be a winning strategy for trump recent polls show his popularity among republicans has increased since he began his attack on the congresswoman. for let's get more on the story with helena humphrey she's standing by in washington for us helena we saw there are those images of trump taunting these congress women they are all women of color they are all u.s. citizens as well we should say telling them to leave the country how significant is this. this is very significant sue me i think it's fair to say that the from

the moment those tweets were sent over the weekend this was a significant moment but what we saw yesterday was an escalation the president essentially leading into further to his message repeating those false statements about omar telling those congresswomen essentially let them leave not saying anything when the crowd started to chant and i think that what we're seeing essentially is the legitimize ation of targeting american people of color minorities in this country newly arrived americans and although we did see that condemnation pos in the vote it was still largely along party lines 240 to 187 in that vote very few republicans condemning what the president had to say. this this type of targeting that we saw from the president is very reminiscent of earlier rallies when we heard that chant lock her up or he was targeting his

democratic rival for the presidency hillary clinton what is trump's strategy here in these chants. it's all about the sound bytes those short catchy inflammatory soundbites slogans which the electorate sympathetic to chant can grab onto and then repeats but i think there is a distinction i want to make in those 2 slogans a lot corrupt was targeted at hillary clinton a woman of privilege and send her back then speaks to a wider public minorities in this country and i think it's fair to say that these minorities of course and do not have the pot for them to defend themselves in the same way that hillary clinton did nor in fact omar either and i think speaking to many migrants in this country who are very fearful of the hardening climates under this presidency fearful of course for the undocumented migrants in this country all of those promised deportation raids which are set to be carried out continue to be

carried out by the immigration customs and in force meant agency and i met one mother who is so fearful she's had to seek refuge in a church she's just so worried about being separated from her children this is our report. like most parents who is a good yet as lopez couldn't imagine being forced to leave the children but as an undocumented immigrant a great his fear is a realistic one rosa fled violence in el salvador 13 years ago now she's facing deportation post 3 children were born in the u.s. a young son john has down syndrome and she's worried he wouldn't receive the same care in el salvador and so over the past 8 months she's been seeking sanctuary at cedar lane unitarian universalist church near washington d.c. living apart from her children journ the week so they can still attend their school . in the godly or at the hc it was hard telling my kids that i had to seek refuge

and if i couldn't go back to my country and leave them and i also couldn't take them because i would be putting them in danger. they could be killed the criminal gangs there recruit children from the age of 10. and if they refuse. they kill them. raises deportation was ordered off to she missed an immigration hearing when ice agents tracked her down they fitted with a monitoring bracelet and ordered her to leave the country and does a. small what's going on in the i had to tell her i was coming to say good bye i had to put my children and another school i had to tell her that i was being deported. it was hard for me. but they want to deport me because i missed a court session but that doesn't make us criminal. or.

me mad. reverend she hopes that ice agents will avoid entering places of worship the church is now one of 50 religious communities offering sanctuary. we decided to become a physical sanctuary congregation driven by the guiding principles of our fate and in these times where we see the current administration engaging in policies and actions that threaten the safety and also the humanity of people. the church has also started an information campaign preparing undocumented immigrants for deportation raids and how to avoid arrest mainly by refusing to open the door. for very many people like her the threat of deportation rates has confined them to living their lives in the shadows of society every day

activities like buying groceries or seeking medical care come with a sense of fear now president trump says that isis set to quote millions of illegal aliens from the country the reality is closer to around 2000 people without papers and democratic lawmakers say that these kinds of statements are a tactic to intimidate communities just like this one let us once again let the community is not backing down or holding vigils to let rosa know they will protect her even if the chump administration is taking a different stone. so her that we see there really this climate of fear for undocumented migrants we also heard that the trump administration is using very donald trump is using very aggressive rhetoric towards u.s. citizens as well so using ethnicity race migration to galvanize support is that

working beyond his most fervent supporters. well syria is his most fervent supporters who are getting behind this message but i think we shouldn't underestimate just how many people often supporters of president trump and al cording to a recent study over the past 10 months the number of people in the united states who believe that american success depends on its openness to the world has fallen by 6 percentage points to nelson and 62 percent and of course these are all politics of division but even trumps the tractor's think that stoking this racial animosity could help him secure a 2nd term and that is what is so unprecedented here every previous successful presidential campaign in the modern era has been built on politics all of inclusion now by singling out these 4 congress women with a progressive message he's essentially making them the face of the democratic party

so any voters who may have been tempted to vote for the democrats in the upcoming election may think twice if they do not subscribe to a progressive message although we should also point out he's also singling out women and of course it's 16 months to the next presidential election that is a long time when we're seeing an administration that has contentious issues thrust into the spotlight on an almost daily basis so we will have to see what sticks in the run up to 2020 our correspondent helena humphrey reporting for us in washington thank you home in the. outskirts of town some other stories making news around the world in japan $33.00 people are confirmed dead in a fire at an animation studio in the city of kioto police say the fire was started deliberately but they have not revealed a motive a suspect has been detained and taken to the hospital to receive treatment for his injuries. and authorities in pakistan have arrested former prime minister. over

corruption allegations pakistan's national accountability bureau is investigating abbas's role in a deal with qatar to import natural gas has denied any wrongdoing. german police have carried out raids on several apartments in the west of the country the rates were centered around a town near cologne but the police also search properties and workplaces in the city itself they were looking for evidence of a potential attack they targeted people from islamist circles who are suspected of posing a potential risk to the public. and our political correspondent maximiliano kosik has been looking into the story for us she joins us from her studio max what more can you tell us about these rates so far what we know is that 6 people have been detained by the police in cologne 3 sets in their press conference earlier today that these people are now keeping to tend the not arrested so far and they have also carried out several raids near the town near cologne that is duren and another

raid has been taking place here in berlin by the burden police and what the police has found in these raids were no lethal weapons or fog and or a of laptops and phones and due to a new police law here in germany these to 10 people can be taken into custody a bit longer so the police is hoping to analyze these electronics to find more about the plans did they so far find any evidence of a potential attack the police in cologne says they had evidence off possibly imminent attack they have been looking into the workplace of 2 of the detained which is a large construction site in the city of cologne and there they have found some. disclosed irregularities that construction site is now currently being observed by experts but they also have looking been looking into conversations with some of the detained and found that they were saying they were ready to carry out an attack

soon ok so they were targeting people who were tied to potential islamist scenes circles rather what can you tell us about the radical islam as seen here in germany it's quite remarkable that these raids have been taking place in cologne and in the west of germany because the jihadi scene in the west of germany is particularly strong at least that's what experts say in north rhine-westphalia which is the federal state of cologne and we've seen the rise of jihadism salafist in this area especially there's one of the spearheads of the salafist movement to forgo very active in that area we've seen. in the banning of one of the convert groups very extremist religious groups in germany that is particularly active in this area all right our political correspondents many acoustic looking into the story for us thank you very much. now a woman who died of ebola in the democratic republic of congo might have carried the disease into wanda that's according to

a new report published today by the world health organization the public health body is calling the ebola outbreak in congo an international health emergency and that's according to a new report published today by the world health organization the public health body is calling the ebola outbreak in congo an international health emergency the warning comes after the 1st ebola case was confirmed in goma a city of more than a 1000000 people that neighbors were wanda. one does border with the democratic republic of congo health workers in yellow vests checking travel as temperatures before allowing them to enter just across the border in the city of goma the death of a traveling pastor has sparked fears the disease could spread now congo's a bold outbreak has been declared a public health emergency of international concern by the world health organization . but the w.h.o. has stopped short of calling it

a global threat saying the virus can still be contained regionally without travel bans. that does not require any history on travel or trade which rather than stopping it. can actually hamper the fight sartre's street sions force people to use informal and on money to border crossings increasing the potential for the spread of disease. was. new a bowl of vaccine is proving highly effective but a looming shortage of the drug has health officials worried dosages have been hard to prevent a shortage. that we have a gap in vaccine and there is a limitation of supply we wouldn't have been involved in the just a dose was if we had adequate supplies of vaccine available right now so excited

the real ability of actually was a priority. it's been almost a year since the latest eyeball outbreak began in the region more than $1600.00 people have died and twice as many have been infected international donors are being asked to step up funding to stop the crisis from spreading further let's get more on this story with brianna p.f.s. she's with the aid organization world vision and she joins us from goma hi brianna the w.h.o. as we heard is calling this crisis in the r.c. a public health emergency of international concern you were in goma where the 1st case was detected there how would you describe the situation where you are. look thank you for having me it's absolutely correct this is becoming a critical point in the of all the response so since a case was confirmed and that person died there's a lot of see in the city of daraa where it strangely concerned because it is

a city of more than 1000000 people that it's very close to the border of rwanda and sorry sorry we haven't yet started to hear of multiple cases across the border there is every chance 1st of all the could spread and we've already saying more than 2 and a half 1000 cases nearly 2 thirds of those people have died and one 3rd of cases of children in their lives have been completely disrupted by a bone sorry the situation is very critical and there's a lot of fear right now. as we heard there is a vaccine that has been proven to be effective but there is a shortage of that vaccine right now why is that why isn't it more available. that scenes are expensive and as everybody knows funding has been a critical issue in this response not just for the world health organization but for all aid agencies responding on the ground doesn't agree instead of vaccines

however we would urge people to consider that prevention is just as crucial as treatment sorry we can have vaccines and i know that they're being administered to people who come into contact with people who have confirmed cases of a ball lock however if we can reach communities and make sure that their way or what to do to prevent the spread of the brawl to protect themselves from a bola then that's going to garri a really long way to help contain the of all the outbreak you mentioned prevention this is also an area that's been described as a war zone i mean what is making it so difficult at this point point to stop the spread of the virus. there's more than 100 armed groups in north and south cave the so it's a very challenging situation for aid agencies and health wickets to operate in just a few days ago we even had to help where kids who were assassinated according to reports sorry it's extremely challenging and agencies and responders on the ground

doing everything they possibly can to containable and stop the outbreak although we are approaching one year since the valar was 1st declared i think agencies on the ground and the local health workers have done an amazing job to stop a lot from jumping borders until recent wake sorry they've done fantastic work but we need more support and the threat of security incidents should not be used as an excuse for the international community to not do more right brianna from world vision joining us from goma thank you very much. if you've been online recently you've probably noticed a newly trending app that alters your selfies and makes you look older but this app that was developed in russia is also prompting security concerns and it has been looking into this for us hi carl here to ruin all the fun that you really are we're

going to talk to look at that the 2nd but literally everyone seems to have this app yeah let's talk about the fun side 1st me it's called face app it's a few years old actually but it's going viral again because of the feature you mentioned it can make you look decades older it uses artificial intelligence to take a photo of your face and basically change it to make you look i don't know like you're 80 years old and the results are scarily realistic we have a few examples for you of what this app can do with some famous celebrity use there's harry potter and harry potter at age 70 i guess jennifer lopez looking like a very elegant grandmother that's kanye west there you can see what the app does i mean essentially adding wrinkles to graze your hair just to look like the real the same person look at the jonas brothers that's not something that's not very little fantastic right an estimated 80000000 people have tried out this app so far that's a lot of people one of those 80000000 people was actually me let's so we can take a look at the results for me there and then they go that's pretty good i'll take it . that i like it on the left that's younger me right. and sumi you know yeah you're

not off the hook either 101 for you let's see what you think of older sumi with can bring up the results ok that's that's because your they were official current which are there you are there all right. i feel like the most dangerous part of the at this it doesn't tell you if that's 80 years or in 20 years yeah that's i mean sue me if you look great just a few extra wrinkles but besides you know all the fun there are a lot of people expressing concerns about privacy here tell us about that right i mean the app was developed 1st of all by a russian company it's called wireless lab some experts have looked into it and they're concerned there's a very low. loose privacy policy here in terms of the information you're giving them there's also concerns that even the photo that you give to the company is uploaded to a server and that could somehow make it into the hands of the russian government itself it people are so worried that even politicians are starting to speak out

against this app u.s. senate minority leader chuck schumer tweeted this i mean it's even got to the hands of the government he says this is big the f.b.i. should look into the national security and privacy risks now because millions of americans have used it and it's owned by a russian based company that's coming from a big politician in the u.s. i realize this started bubbling up again that i've actually had this app on my phone for a couple years i made my entire family download this app on their phones as well should we be worried i mean here's the thing to your face in these days is very valuable it's this biometric data that the many people are starting to use so it's ok a thing to be concerned that privacy policy if you take a look at it is also concerning but the company behind the app they've tried to address some of these concerns they released a statement saying that most photos are deleted from their servers within a couple of days users can request to have their photo deleted permanently if they like they can do that through the app and it claims no user data is transferred from the servers which are actually in the u.s.

to russia so that should kind of take care of most of the biggest concerns but the bottom line i think is this i mean we should be concerned about any app that we give photos to not just ones based in russia i mean there's american apps if you look at snap chat or twitter facebook those privacy policies are just as bad if not sometimes worse than what this russian company is doing so i think we're just not really panicking sometimes about what american companies are doing because we're used to it already and this russian company is coming up and maybe it's a little bit overblown but still it's a good thing to be concerned you should be concerned any time you give your photo over to a company for it but we can still have some fun then with the case that one of our hit our reporter karl nelson thank you for bringing us that story corps. now u.s. actor kevin spacey was one of the most high profile people to be accused of sexual assault as the me too scandal erupted in hollywood the allegations cost him roles and saw his scenes edited out of a film about a criminal case against him has collapsed after his accuser refutes the testify.

for the family it is one of the few criminal cases to be brought after allegations came to light during hollywood's me too sexual assault stanzel but now u.s. prosecutors have dropped the case against actor kevin spacey he had been accused of groping an 18 year old man in a bar in 2016 spacy denied the allegations the charges of indecent assault and battery were dropped after the case collapsed when the accuser refused to testify about a phone he lost the defense had said the missing phone contained text messages that could have proved the actor's innocence in december last year as news broke that speccy was going to be charged the actor released a video spoken in the style of his character frank underwood from the netflix series house of cards in it he urged people not to judge him in a trial by media before facts were proved in a court of law. i know what you. do you want me

back. of course believed everything i've just been waiting with bated breath to him a confession all but you wouldn't believe the worst without evidence or you would rush to judgment without facts would you while spacey faced sexual misconduct accusations from several men this was the only one to result in a criminal case but what now for the 2 time oscar winner star of films including the usual suspects as the misconduct allegations against spacey mounted his acting career came to a sudden halt and he was dropped from house of cards but whether spacey will return to acting is another issue while the criminal case may have been dismissed the court of public opinion may be less willing to forget. a reminder now of our top story here on t.w. u.s. president donald trump has intensified his attacks against former congressman at a campaign rally he described the democratic lawmaker says on the american although
