of people felt that that was a victory for the rule of law in this country. there is the feeling that the political elite get away with anything that they are not held to a concert. a lot of people thought that this would be a turning point for this country that people would see this. somebody like mr. zoom, a former president who has really been at the highest of what you can be in this country. going to prison for being in content that the law was equal and applied equally to everybody. and so that is what a lot of people welcomed. and that is certainly what a lot of people told me on the day that the constitutional court made that ruling. so that was the victory that this was views as now of course, things have sort of the winds have been taken out of the sale of the story in a, in a sense of, or a lot of people. because of course mr. z, my husband allowed to review his case, but this is what this means to people in the country right with corruption that anybody who is seen to be corrupt would be held to account. and that's what this symbolized for a lot of people is the 4th of july to day in the united states and celebrating its

200 and 45th birthday. one of the big issues facing the nation is immigration. president joe biden himself has presided over a naturalization ceremony in washington dc touring in a group of new american citizens. she came to office promising a more humane and orderly immigration policy. but his administration has been struggling to deal with a migrant crisis, threatening to overwhelm the us make and for more on this, i'm now joined by d. w is currently in a few more in mount vernon, the home of the 1st american president, george washington, where a large ceremony is about to take place to swear in. if new american citizens, catalina, this all is a big change from president trump, is it not the welcome and the change in rhetoric? yes, make what i tell you. i know there's some fire was taking place here. i can tell you that these kinds of things and, or try because it didn't have that thing was at the cobra by the place. and we had

during the last year because of that, a lot of ceremonies were cams, but actually in the year 2019, there was a record number, not really they taking place in the united states. and today, 39 people have to realize i, american citizens from 30 different countries. so that's the last kind of time when you really are. and how are the people there that you're talking to feeling about this, this event in their lives? i think the value for them going if i can recall the new american citizen, how are you feeling today or today until wonderful since it's a special moment at central day for my family, for me, for myself, just a mike there where my life changes completely. no longer straight data and the contrary,

i'm someone who can who can do some change. wonderful. and it's amazing what is like the most important thing to you. why is it to be an american citizen, to belong to this or you said it to the country? doesn't really matter where you're from. there's a 32 different countries from which people were citizen became a really tell he doesn't really matter where you from. you will be our home here and it's a family that can protect 5 the worms. so yeah, it's amazing. thank you. that of course, the 4th of july is the very 1st. they say it's not really a ceremony there you can see the fireworks make. it's a very special day for 39 people here who just became american citizen. well yeah, we can feel the excitement and it must be an incredible memory. it will be an

incredible memory for them as they begin their new lives of american citizens. but part of that is going to be of course voting and democrats and republicans are already campaigning for mid term elections. how much of an issue do you think immigration could be this time around me. grayson is going to be a huge issue for we probably come across towards the mid term elections. and we already see how the republican party is using the immigration as a political in order to create a fear among, among their followers. especially the followers support him because he was starting to build that will support him because he was using the immigration correct for the fighting. we already know. it's definitely going to be a few days before. but right now, people, as you can see,

hope me remind me of the beliefs i started with even if i'm jailed in the future. one started the group student politicize last may just after hong kong or is heard about the national security law at 20. he's one of the oldest in the group. there is young as 15, there's some of the few still visible on the streets. many other groups are gone and not all load. well, i decided not to go to college last year, which i wanted to get to keep myself to activism while i was still free, though they are still, i know many political influence are seldom speak in public. people fear they could be called come to the national security law with all, especially with it being so uncertain migalia how we feel like we have to step out . especially when prominent figures are either in jail or in exile. deli, all that i boy why wong has been arrested 4 times in the last year.

twice just this month. marches are banned under pandemic rule. he and his group hand out leaflets instead, but it's enough to get him into trouble. the pressure is intense. he knows national security officers are watching him. he doesn't go to sleep until 7 am. so he's awake at dawn. that's when police arrest people at home. he's part of what beijing says is an extremely small minority that the national security law targets to preserve stability. one has the correct stability brought by the national security law is just an illusion and is built on people's fear. there's no reason for further treat. what if even the terms freedom and democracy become to be one day. i won't compromise on my speech or that if he will, he and his groups support those already in jail. they take supplies to protesters

behind bars. on handle. hong kong future is more important in my one future. when the political prisoners are released in years or decades to come, i don't want them to return to the worst hong kong hong kong without hong callers and all. and we have many see we are the kids chosen by the time. but i think it's we who have chosen this era, sally said all the symbols on his skin state, his certainty, the tattoos are messages of defiance to his future self the, the for decades, for my east germany, the secret service side on it, citizen, the information was stored on files, many people only found out later how extensively they will be monitored.
