his children. beethoven shortened it and moved around some of the lines added a sentence and using schiller simple words he composed a symphony with worldwide appeal mention. because you give them. and then. always is. just like that. if you want to make a. guy talk articulated legato we all need to sing. cross prepared they're gonna fight for you at that thinking. that that you need to look at that if you play like let's make a home run that you have out and ok reminded of that. at the q. could be think the pizza. man she yeah that was fired out of the.

how is the world's most powerful woman shaping her legacy joining us from eccles law stops. this is a deal where you newsline from believing u.s. regulators give the green light to a vaccine against code that 19 the food and drug administration approves the bio on take finds a vaccine this decision kickstarting and i'm presented vaccination campaign which works its begin in the coming days also coming up the u.s. supreme court rejects appeared to overturn the presidential election result in yet

another blur to donald trump the justices dismissed a lawsuit challenging joe biden's victory in 14 states will trump finally have to concede will ask a legal expert. and the e.u. to agrees to cut greenhouse gas emissions by at least 55 percent in the next decade will have reaction to the deal shortly. times our very thank you for joining me we begin the show with some breaking news the american drug regulator the f.d.a. has approved the bio and take 5 the coronavirus vaccine as the u.s. readies itself to introduce mass immunization us don't know u.s. prison donald trump had piled pressure on the f.d.a. on friday to approve the vaccine reportedly telling its head stephen hahn to resign

if the agency had not done so by the end of the day the u.s. which has a coronavirus death toll of protein 300000 hopes to vaccinate 20000000 people by the end of december 1000. peeta chain hong is an infectious disease specialist at the university of california i asked him what will happen once the vaccine gets the green light from u.s. regulations it said that hours after the f.d.a. approved. initiation of the emergency use authorization that vaccine doses will be shipped to the various states this several hospitals already my including one of them will be pre-positioned as begin vaccinating health care workers in the 1st wave so that's what we looking for we will bring that that will actually start by monday and we all looking forward to it. just in the next couple

of days daily deaths in the united states have talked 3000 your an infectious diseases specialist how woring numbers like this to you and your colleagues. are very worrying they're very demoralizing we hadn't had this kind of surge before and what's really crazy right now is that it's not just the number of cases and deaths but this hospital capacity and we're bursting at the seams and we may have to make decisions about who lives and who dies and that's not something that anyone was free for. like to get your opinion on the general how do people feel about the vaccine now that it's about to be rolled out what's the general attitude among the american public. so i would say that is improving over time i think in the beginning of 2020 there was general approval but

it dipped in the summer because of the fear that the vaccine was being used for political capital and election year so that was about 50 percent approval but last year with the repeat pulling it shows about 60 percent approval i get those numbers out too low we need at least 70 percent to get herd immunity and i think as the vaccine gets rule out i'm hopeful that more and more individuals would find it acceptable that was dr pitchin hong an infectious disease specialist from the university of california san francisco thank you very much for your time thanks so much for having me on. let's take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world today work has restarted on the controversial nord stream 2 gas pipeline between russia and germany almost one year off the u.s. sanctions brought the project to a halt the pipeline is now almost complete washington says it will make europe too

dependent on russian gas bought lynn says it will create a secure energy supply. germany is lifting a ban on deportations to syria for the 1st time in 8 years despite the ongoing conflict in the country the decision means that syria nationals convicted of a crime or deemed a security risk face deportation from january the 1st. a police officer in albania who shot and men dead on tuesday for violating a coronavirus curfew has been remanded in custody the shooting of the 25 year old man has triggered violent protests in the capital to rana and led to the resignation of the interior minister. well the us supreme court has rejected an attempt by president donald trump and the state of texas to overturn results in the presidential election the challenge to president elect joe biden's

victories in michigan georgia pennsylvania and wisconsin justices ruled that takes this didn't have the right to challenge how other states run their elections to defeat a huge setback for trump in his bid to seize electoral victory from biden. from all that's go to orlando and speak to professor michael t. morley and election and constitutional law expert from florida state university professor welcome it seemed to be widely expected that this challenge by texas would fail which turned out to be correct why did the supreme court dismiss it. the supreme court held that texas lacked standing to challenge the results of the other states elections the presidential election in the united states we often think of it as a single nationwide unitary event when in reality it's conducted as a series of $51.00 separate elections within each of the 50 states as well as the district of columbia and so the supreme court held that it lacked jurisdiction over

texas' challenge because it said the state of texas didn't have legal interest in how other states went about conducting their presidential election and whether there were violations of other states laws or even violations of the u.s. constitution in those other states so it refused to hear the case due to texas' lack of standing to pursue the types of legal issues that it had sought to raise i'd like to get your opinion on the implications of this challenge did fail but after all i states and more than 100 republicans in congress endorsed discarding the results of the election what what does this mean. well i think that there's a few different ways you can look at that on the one hand i think it it shows certainly widespread institutional support within the republican party for

president trump the fact that he was able to get that wide of a backing for ford for texas' lawsuit on the other hand i think it shows that at least among some segment of the population concerned about the results of the election potential just skepticism about the electoral process as a whole obviously the election was conducted in the in the wake of covert 19 there had been numerous changes as a result of court orders and merge and see regulations and other types of emergency orders that had been passed in order to allow the election to be conducted in the wake of a global pandemic by and large i think election officials across the nation performed admirably admirably they it was remarkable that they were able to pull off the election with so few unexpected bumps but i think that just the sheer extent of the changes at least among some portion of the population right led to skepticism the enhanced use of the males obviously read president trump throughout the campaign

had called into question heavy emphasis on on mailing voting and so i think that overall we saw those factors coalesce in the support on the republican and that that texas wound up getting before the court on monday. to formally elect joe biden as u.s. president. brought by trump and his allies have failed repeatedly across the country is this the end of the legal road for donald trump. well this one of the things that made the texas suit so unique and again the court held they didn't even have jurisdiction a lot of commentators had pointed out the numerous procedural and jurisdictional hurdles that it faced but one of the the unique aspects of the texas suit is that it essentially sought to bring the entire election before the supreme court that it identified is a 4 different states where texas claimed it had statutory and constitutional

problems and invited the court to to handle the issue in one fell swoop they're still read there are still cases pending in the lower courts as a matter of fact the wisconsin supreme court has just agreed to hear an appeal of brought by the trump campaign tomorrow there are other cases where the trump campaign has lost in the lower courts where it can still ask the supreme court itself to hear those cases so over the upcoming days and potentially even weeks i expect to see continued litigation i think it's extraordinarily unlikely that any of those lawsuits will succeed but the the short answer is no this is this case while it presented one unified package that would have allowed the court to consider all of the objections being raised right across at least in most of the states across the board the court's rejection of this case doesn't shut the door on all these other cases that remain pending in the lower courts ok it's been good to

talk to you professor michael team only from florida state university thank you very much thank you. well late is will gather today for a virtual u.n. summit on climate ambition this is to mock 5 years since the paris climate a cold was struck and just in time for this amazing e.u. latest i've managed to reach a hotfoot deal to dramatically cut the country's greenhouse gas emissions member states agreed to reduce emissions by 55 percent by the end of the decade and the new target also imes to put the e.u. on track to reach net 0 emissions by the year 2015. judging by their faces there was no doubt that have been a long night here in brussels. after hungary and poland had finally agreed to drop their veto on the entire budget leaders could get on with tackling what was the commission's most pressing issue before the pandemic struck the climate crisis. stuff you had to see all this was worth

a sleepless night i can't imagine what would have happened if we weren't able to reach this result. she's talking about the e.u. says new more ambitious climate goals compared to $990.00 the plan now for sea slashing greenhouse emissions by 55 percent in the next 10 years by investing in green energy and technology the e.u. has pledged to become climate neutral by 2050 the previous target of 40 percent had been criticized as being far too low but some eastern countries with coal dependent economies feared serious consequences they demanded more clarity on funding to ease the transition according to the outcome of the meeting each member states individual situation will be addressed. this year and will is to take into account that different countries had different starting points to take up the issue with the spirit of equality and solidarity. to the polish prime minister's office tweeted we have an agreement which creates the conditions for

a just transformation of the polish energy and economy. with another major obstacle out of the way it was time for uncle americal to ramp up germany's e.u. council presidency the stuffings are going to us i can tell you the german presidency was a lot of fun although we weren't able to achieve a lot of things that we planned that's what this is all for me last time and as a. comb 2021 portugal will be taking over. earlier we spoke to the executive director of greenpeace international jennifer morgan we are asked whether these measures from the e.u. are too little too late they are definitely too little and although we still have time they risk being too late where in a climate of urgency and where experiencing extreme weather fires drought storms all around the world and the e.u. needed to take on a 65 percent cut rather than this 55 percent cut which isn't actually much more

than they're already aim you know on track to meet so we need more from the e.u. and we'll keep working for that i think the goal means that from an economic perspective i mean there's 2 parts of this right one is that the e.u. is preparing itself for that 0 carbon economy and it is creating jobs i mean if you look across the job markets in places where say renewable energy is booming it was one of the largest growth in jobs in the united states for example over the last number of years so from an economic perspective of that piece of it it's it's definitely a benefit for it it also will help that you this is a global piece but you have to think about the impacts of climate change itself to the farming system to our infrastructure to our buildings that just cause tremendous cost which often is not taken into account so if you put out altogether you know this is this is sound for the e.u.

to do it just needs to be further and it needs of course to be working with other countries to move in the same direction. jennifer morgan from greenpeace international there well finally the vatican unveiled its christmas tree on some pages square on friday evening we'll leave you now with pictures from that ceremony . thank you honey carry. the fight against the corona virus pandemic. has the rate of infection been developing what does the latest research say. information and context around a virus update nineteen's. on t w. how does
