this is the they'll be unusual from then president trumps to use his racist tones against for minority lawmakers to rouse his republican base. supporters chance sad have back as the president names the congresswoman but will his riffs on race help him win another in the white house also on the program traveling to stumble of crazy pop protesters accused of taking part of a movement that swept across turkey in 2038 we bring you a special report. after the world health organization to catch the phone

a crisis in the democratic republic of congo an international emergency it says just one person may have carried the deadly disease out of that they are safe and into neighboring countries. and the me too case fizzles out in court we'll look at why american prosecutors decided to drop criminal charges against hollywood star captain spacey after he was accused of groping a teenager. i'm phil gayle welcome to the program. what started off as a racist tweets has become a rallying cry for trump's support says the u.s. president to use a campaign rally in north carolina to repeat his attack on a group of democratic congress women riffing on a tweet he sent this week president trump told the lawmakers to go back to that

country despite the fact that 3 of the 4 were born in the united states and all are u.s. citizens was donald trump has critics and he made sure to share some of their names in front of his raucous fans representative alexandria ok 0000 was she don't keep an eye on the presley ilan or mark. 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 phone with me 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 are suggestions

for the hate filled extremists who are constantly trying to tear our country down they know that it is the good to say that's why i say hate if they don't like it a little believe let them loose 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 my life i was i so involved in the cold war polo arena and the loss of the like i can reach out talk to you whenever i was walking because it's like one to 6 rally and i ask always support our president because he supports our last 2 years. you're right a lot of. 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. let's get more on this

from dave w. correspondent to have a humphrey in washington welcome helena the racist anti has been upped from tweets to chanting crowds how significant is this. phil from the moment those tweets were sent over the weekend i think this is extremely significant but then we did see the ante up to the president essentially leaning aides telling american congress women to leave the country and i think that is potentially very dangerous indeed essentially what we are seeing is the legitimize ation of targeting people who are minorities of people who while newly arrived americans for example so extremely dangerous rhetoric very in an already hardening climate so i should say many migrants i've spoken to in the past month say that the atmosphere has changed in this country under the charm administration and of course now we have those deportation raids conducted by the immigration and customs

enforcement agency the ice agents in that dreaded knock at their door and i spoke to one woman who is an undocumented immigrant and she's so fearful of being separated from her american born children that she felt she had no choice but to seek refuge in a church has our report. like most parents who is a good yet is 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 both 3 children were born in a little less youngest son john has down's 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 in washington d.c. living apart from her children during the week so they can still attend their school. in the godley under the hood 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 here and i also couldn't take them because i would be putting them in danger. they could be killed the criminal gangs their recruit children from the age of 10. and if they refuse. they kill them and they have to get a little money. raisers deportation was ordered off to she missed an early immigration hearing when ice and jones tracked her down they fitted with a monitoring bracelet and ordered her to leave the country and. the custody then went on the maid i mean they a friend small what's going on in the i had to tell her i was going to say goodbye i had to put my children and another school i had to tell her that i was being deported. it was hard for me. so i put it on with you know that. they want to support me because i missed

a court session but that doesn't make us criminal. or. is in that office that can be maddening. reverend abby jerram and 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 various and many people like her the threat of

deportation raids 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 your abuse of 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 there's a community is not backing down or holding vigils to let rosa know they will protect her even if the champ ministration is taking a different stance. is them more support for this sort of rhetoric beyond mr trump's bias. right so even if the supporters are getting behind this i think we should not

underestimate the amount of people in this country who all fervent supporters all of president trump i mean in the past 10 months we've seen the number of people who believe that america's success depends on the openness of the country for 6 percentage points to now stand at 62 percent and i think it's fair to say even president trying to track his have said that stoking this kind of racial animosity could help him secure a 2nd term now what is so on precedented is that in the modern day era all successful presidential campaigns have run on politics all of inclusion here of course very clearly we are seeing politics of division and i should point out as well that by targeting these congress women who belong to the progressive caucus of the democratic party he is making them the face of the democratic party so any centrist voters who perhaps he considers giving their vote to the left of center

may think twice if they do not subscribe to a progressive message that said it's not just minorities who have been targeted or so women in his rhetoric and still 16 months to this presidential election that is a long time when currently with this current administration we are seeing inflammatory issues seemingly come to the fore on a daily basis so we'll have to see what sticks phil. humphrey in washington thank you. i'll take a look at some of the other stories making news around the world 33 people have been confirmed dead in a fire at an animation studio in the japanese city of kioto police say the fire was started deliberately but have not revealed the motive the suspect times being detained and taken to the hospital to be treated for his injuries. police in western germany say they're thwarted a possible terrorist attack after writing homes belonging to suspected islamic extremists the raids began early this morning in the cities of cologne and nearby

the most critically elected government. john the lawyer who is now on trial sees things differently for him he was an act of civil protest against an increasingly authoritarian government and that he says is something that nobody should be thrown in jail for. he watching the doubly news live from berlin still to come they meet to case against hollywood star kevin spacey has fizzled out in court we'll look at why prosecutors decided to drop criminal charges that he was accused of groping a teenager. first of a woman who died of a boat in the democratic republic of congo may have carried the disease into rwanda this is according to a report published today by the world health organization the public health bodies now describing congo's about the outbreak as an international health emergency the warning comes after the 1st of all the case was confirmed in goma

a city of more than a 1000000 people on the border with rwanda. or 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 less strict sions on travel or tread which rather than stopping it. can actually hamper the fight so i dress directions force people to use informal and

border crossings increasing the potential for the spread of this is what. i knew about all the 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 of doses if we had adequate supplies a vaccine available right now so excel raising the real ability of actually that's 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. said

the latest from outside who works for the aid organization know world vision and joins us from goma but welcome to day w what is the situation varing go. the situation eve's quite tense in going there in the sense that aid agencies and health which is extremely worried about the spread of a ball ah it's been one year since of all the 1st broadcast in north and already we are at more than 2 and a half 1000 cases every single day since continue to rise and as we're hearing reports of a potential case in rwanda across the border the border is a just sorry for us and sorry there's definitely a race that the ball that could spread across the border and to other regions but responders on the ground and doing acts salut leave everything they can to stop that from happening and what sort of effect does that have on daily life and go.

well actually for the past year people in government have been quite prepared city of all the response in the sense that when you walk down the streets people who don't tend to touch each other on necessarily also u.k. food don't shake hands we migrate to each other when you go to hotels all restaurants or even offices so workplaces people are getting their temperatures checked they're all sorry and washing their hands and making sure they stay clean sorry definitely people in government has responded really well to the prevention. we heard in the report about limitations of supply of the vaccine what's behind the shortage. look vaccines are incredibly expensive and everyone there is that funding for the of all the response has been a critical issue for the for the entire year that of all it has been writing in north kivu well vision doesn't instill that sainz our focus is on prevention

because we think prevention is just as crucial as traits and especially as we start to see children making up to 30 percent of all the cases which is really tragic so is the vaccine shortage because they can't afford it or that. the vaccine dosage is just not physically available. look i guess that's a question for the world health organization and others who are administrating that that same focus is on prevention but definitely we support saying the vaccines rolled out into muniz he's because it's being prioritized and it is making a difference sorry i think every piece of the puzzle comes together and really helps in the response of people around the world will look at this and wonder why do these outbreaks keep occurring we one gets contained and then beaten and then it

pops up again why is that. look of all the is just such an incredibly contagious disease and this is actually the day us these 10 of all algebraic however it's the 1st algebraic to everich in north kivu and what's different about north kivu compared to other agents for example is the fact that we have this ongoing threat of violence which has handed a bald responders on the ground we have heard about security risks and even attacks on health workers who are just trying to do their job and make a positive difference for people who are living through it all on the ground sorry i guess just because they use this threat of violence does not mean that we should stop responding we we take the precautions that we can in order to stay safe in the field but we edge the international community to not stop funding their response

out of tombstones for security we wish you well thank you for joining us brianna p.r. stuff from the world from world vision in government thank you thank you. the united states where actor kevin spacey is one of the most high profile people to be accused of sexual assault as a result of hollywood's me too scandals the allegations cost him roles and so his scenes edited out of a film but a criminal case against him house just collapsed after his accuser refused to testify. for you but it is one of the few criminal cases to be brought after allegations came to light during hollywood's me too sexual assault scandal 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 deny 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 want. you want me back. of course believed everything you know just been waiting with bated breath to hear me confess it 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. in football tomorrow night's africa cup of nations final say set a goal with a chance to win their 1st football title the lines of tauranga regarded as a slight favorites against algeria but the desert fox is of algeria have already defeated setting out in the group stages and will bring an army of travelling fans to cairo. algeria fans have filled chartered planes to see the desert fox is playing egypt plenty you're optimistic their journey will have a happy ending. you know kind of that we have to travel to cairo to watch the final and we wish that we will win and go back home happy because it's been hard traveling. maher is in company haven't lost
