to be south d, w dot com. ah, when joe biden asked the americans to choose him to be their next president, he offered a bridge in return, a bridge, leading to a brighter future, a bridge to leave the donald trump trauma behind the mid term election results confirming that the country is still on course could this, however, be a big you term last night donald trump appeared in the rear view mirror, telling americans that he wants to be president again. his confidence helped steer him to victory in 2016. will it drive the voters away in 2024? i'm forgotten berlin. this is the day. ah, merrick is come back, starts right now i am so happy. i am so happy

we will make america great. peace, however, it was not being new. this is not a test for a politician or a conventional candidate as a task for a great movement that embodies the courage, confidence, and the spirit of the american. it remains now a question mark if the republican party will think to donald time also coming up 24 hours ago, the signs were there, that russia's invasion of ukraine was about to become a russian attack on nato. thankfully, it didn't turn out that way. it's up sort of thing, it's gifts because we was about absolutely no indication that it was a direct attack on poland. so the fact that polish territory was hit with the rock . it was not a result of intentional actions. poland was not a target for the rocket, so in fact, poland was not attacked such as at them,

nibbled a ladies and gentlemen distinguished. yes and my fellow citizens, america's come back, starts right now in order to make america graded laurie's again. i am tonight announcing my candidacy for president. ha, there you heard it to donald trump is running for president. yet again, our viewers watching on p b. s in the united states into all of you around the world. welcome. we begin the day with donald trump at the starting line, one more time. last night, the former, you as president, ignored the advice of fellow republicans and jumped head 1st into the 2024 presidential campaign. what we saw last night was true. trump, a politician ignoring the obvious, the disappointing performance of republicans in the mid term elections, especially those candidates that trump had endorsed. and instead,

he was asking voters to put their future and that of the country in his hands. no mention of inconvenient truths, not a word about losing the last election truck once a repeat of 2016 in 2024. america may be as polarized. now as it was 6 years ago, but the country, the voters, and what they say they want, that has changed and not necessarily in trump's favor. let's go now to our washington bureau chief in his full. she joins me from washington anus in to see you. you were in florida yesterday that big announcement by donald trump. what was it like? the same and different at the same time on a brands you know, he used kind of the same script. he also use in 20152016 he was running for president, but there was some lack of energy. i mean, it sounded nearly as he would be a little bit bored, a by himself,

by using like the arguments, the drug dealers cross the border that the borders not protected. that the economy is down, the t is the only one who can make america great again. so it was a very different wipe inside morales ago and his home, but also outside, you know, we stood there and die. before he started, we talked to trump support as they said, be expecting thousands of people and that might have been the case 34 years ago. but there were just around $150.00 or so. so all in all, it nearly looked a little bit small and pitiful. and it comes just a week after the mid term elections we, we still got 2 years to go until the next election. so why is donald trump? why is he making this announcement now? now that's a very good question i he announced it actually before the midterms and people

thought he probably wants to run on the predicted, so called a red wave which never took place. you just said that the republicans didn't win as they expected. they won the majority in the house, probably, but they couldn't win the senate. and many of those are candidates who trump endorsed. last big times, why does he do it? now? this is a possibility for him though, a brain to really raise money because now they can start the so called super packs, and that's what he needs his low on cash. so that's what he can do now, as he has announced to run as president for the 2024 election yet. so he can, he can raise money now in 2022. but we know that 2022 is not 2016 when we are talking about his party, the republicans, the g. a pete wanted to take a listen to this spot that was produced by the lincoln project. the lincoln project, a republicans who are opposed to donald trump ticklish donald trump is back.

angry, vengeful, ready to take back the white house and rec, america again, and who's going to stop these weakling to losers? business leaders, they'll bend the knee and write the checks the press to many are just here. ready to float sides america to death. the law hilly looks like he's always done. now, only people who will stop trump for americans ready to put a country full for party is there's a lot to peel away just from that little bit of the t v spot there that we were able to show. first, the g or p republican party is divided to put it mildly. is this now a war for the party survival? either the party lives on or trump gets elected in other republican party, the grand old party,

the g o. p indeed is in deep trouble. there are still 345, maybe 10000000 or republican borders who are strong, strong, trump supporters and the republicans really kind of turn their bag on donald trump . they might lose those voters. and what if donald trump then kind of starts his own party? that's also a big fear. and so that problem or the problem the g o. p has to face is indeed how do they handle now? donald trump's announcement, 2 years ahead of the election. what about other possible candidates? do they weighed and see what happens in the next year or so. the republicans are really facing a very, very difficult time. the other point from that spot, or one is to talk about briefly. it accuses journalists on of being complicit in trumps misdeeds by attempting to report both sides of the story. i think it said it's both on siding america to death. it. is that a fair criticism?

well, i think the networks and probably those velez villa included. we have to rethink how we covered donald trump in the future. and it is interesting to see which networks covered him live yesterday. hardly anyone, only fox news, and that's kind of a former from supporting network and they even a, you know, a stopped after a while after his announcement and didn't follow him like for 80 minutes or so. so networks are we thinking how to cover him, but i think it is not the right thing to say that we as journalists should not cover or the problems the issue, the concerns of those who support donald trump. we have to go out there and listen to them, and that's what we do for deutsch available. listen. if we have to listen to them and, and, and report why they think that a washington is not representing them. why they think that too many companies have

left the united states, why they are afraid of drug cartels coming into the country. so i think just closing one ear and one eye is definitely not the right answer. yeah, that's a very good point. family and drop trumps daughter yvonne cuz she has made it clear that she has no plans to be involved with any 2nd trip to the white house. i mean, there has to be a blow to a person, but i am just wondering, does it matter to try that was very interesting to see because trump always kind of, you know, showed him as his family person. he had a really, he made his family kind of his people, right. he created himself as a empire and it was remarkable that he, vanka, trump, wasn't there. we have to keep in mind the monica trump is still only in the early forty's. she is a business woman herself and she seems to be really shying away from, from donald trump at this very moment. so it must have been hard for him to not to

have her on his side yesterday evening. yeah, that's a lovely put against it. abuse in his poll there with the latest from washington is has always think you're watching the day. we have more coming up including this. ah, the successful launch of man's his artemus wrong towards the mood. we'll take a look at the and crude mission and how it's a crucial test for analysis artemus program that aims to put astronauts back on the lunar surface. nato and poland had said that a missile strike, that struck polish territory on tuesday, was likely fired by ukraine. in self defense, 2 people were killed when the missile exploited in a village near poland border with ukraine. the incident came on the same day that

russia bombarded ukraine with scores of missiles targeting cities and infrastructure across the country. mangled fan vehicles lie in the huge price had caused by tuesday, blast a long way from the front lines of rushes, invasion of ukraine. this conflict now arriving at a grain factory just 3 miles across poland border. to day investigators combed the wreckage with paul's weary of wants to come. still, you saw nothing, mostly white. we calmly statistically speaking, it probably had to happen at some point. we as i simply so close to ukraine, so the razzle you observe metric on that of me without i'm waiting to see what happens next. how the state reacts. i'm trying not to succumb to fear. i'm waiting for more information, but at some ceiling for the program of the explosion hedges, russia launched a massive wave of rocket attacks across ukraine. but poland,

leaders say they went, the target, it's up sort of thing. it's here because we are eligible. absolutely no indication that it was a direct attack on poland. so the fact that polish territory was hit with the rocket was not a result of intentional actions. poland was not a target for the rocket. so in fact, who poland was not attacked researchers at them near booth or octagon upholstered nato has also been quick to de escalate the situation. cautiously. an attack on one of its members would signal a major shift and rushes war hour to live, announces she just thought the incident was likely caused by craner earphones. me far fired to the friends ukrainian territory. i guess russians miss. org with us. but let me clear this is a lot you grace paul. busy talk bears, old. no,

this is really awesome. continuous. this eagle war is an unfortunate accident this time, but a real threat as the conflict continues on poland duplicity. we got team coverage of this story tonight or reporter she gorski seminar ski is in the polish village where that missile hit yesterday and dw of jerry schultz. she joins us from brussels. the city where the headquarters of nieto is located. it's good to see both of you. jaguar, let me start with you. you are on the ground in the village where that missile exploded. what have people told you about the past 24 hours would be they could have been ground 0 of a much larger war. yes, brent indeed we are in the village of shavon where the explosion this accident yesterday happened. you can see behind me the police have cordoned off the area and

just a few 100 meters behind me. there is this leg grain for drying facility. we're what a missile strike. and the 2 people have died and the people we spoke to here, they told us they are, they are afraid, and their last 24 hours have been have put them under tremendous pressure. and they told us they could to hear a explosions from an explosion. even further out in the area, they had to explosions the people here many thought that it was maybe an a gas explosion or some sort of an accident. but then they knew, started trickling in, and the reality turned out more grim and since then depressing. you know, they know what a live we are right on the border with ukraine is just 6 kilometers the way to the border from here, from where i'm standing and you know, they, they are,

they would be, they could be the 1st one. the 1st was who, who would be affected in a, in a case of a bigger conflict, and they've experienced this already of right from the beginning of the russian, a full scale invasion on the 24th of february. they have been 1st once to receive ukrainian refugees. in fact, one of the men had that were killed yesterday. he was well known here in the community for going to the border frequently helping out the refugees. so, you know, they've been experiencing this conflict intensively, but the last 24 hours was obviously a and other level yet. and terry, what about at nato headquarters? i'm assuming that the relief must have been tremendous there, that the alliance is not facing a war with russia today. certainly that is not exactly how leaders express it, but it's obvious because as was mentioned earlier, not only would that signal

a major shift in rushes plans for waiting is war on ukraine. but that would mean that the response that nato would have to come up with would be massively different than if this was simply an accident. and in fact, we know that poland was, was preparing to ask for what's called article for consultations. and that means i'm bringing all the allies together in the case of a security or political threat to a country. and they decided at the last minute to call that often. so that was a sign of relief. and the other sign was that nato secretary general un stolz, amber went so far as to say, not only was this most likely, not an attack from russia, of course, pending final investigation. but we have no sign that russia is planning any offensive to attack on nato country. so you can definitely tell that nato wanted to deescalate the fears in georgia, poland, we know has been very vocal and it's support of ukraine. and so people have said to david,

it's amazing that this type of accident that we saw yesterday is amazing that it hasn't happened earlier. have you been hearing that cinema? oh yes i this, you know, people here know that there is a major concert going right on the side on the other side of the border. but still, i think few of them have it could have expected the conflict with steel into polish territory. and we now today hope that you know, this is the nature of this conflict will not change that. i mean that, that poland or nato will not be involved at this point. but i know, you know, the message from the polish government is that it is actually the ultimate that it is russia that bears the ultimate responsibility for this. for this tragic incident, as the prime minister has called it a,

he said that everything points to the post to the scenario that ukraine was simply trying to intercept the russian rocket. you remember yesterday there was a bigger full scale russian rocket attacker all across the ukraine. so he said, for the 1st feminist, who said that ukraine had the right to defend itself, as he says, parent has been very vocal about his support for ukraine. and i don't think that this accident will change anything about that in terry eastern european native members, they were, they were quick to point fingers last night. you and i talked about this even before there was any evidence or any clarity in the situation. how did that play out inside nato? do we know? i don't think that anyone is going to blame the eastern european countries for thinking it was russia. we've all been worried that this, this kind of situation would happen, that there would be a purposeful attack. so i think that the relief flooding in that this was simply an

accident, overshadowed any sort of i'm blaming for having come to, to quick of conclusions. and i'm, as we'd been saying un nato joined the polish government in saying that regardless of the fact that russia didn't fire dismissal, it is because russia is raining missiles down on ukraine constantly, that the situation even happened. so moscow certainly wasn't exonerated just because it didn't fire this missile. it briefly, church for you, another time ukraine's president zalinski. she has, it said that he believes that the missile was fired by russia and not by his own forces. is, is it causing any type of dissonance at nato? and he's insisting that he be part of an investigation. yeah, i saw that that those claims were continuing even after the nato press conference, where the secretary general made clear that this is definitely what everyone believes. so i mean, i think it remains to be seen how that will play out and,

and if the ukrainians can bring any sort of proof that they did. this was not one of their air defense missiles, but at nato headquarters, they weren't giving any credence to that side of the story. yet, even as they said, the, these are just preliminary findings and we have to wait, wait for the final final results. you to be used to results reporting to life, brussels and j. j gosh middle ski on the ground there in poland near the border with you, craig, to both of you. thank you. ah. and here we go, and hide on to burn off at night or to initiate our 7. 65 horse name didn't start. 321 boosters, indignation and lift off of autumn is one. we rise together, back to the moon and beyond. mm. that was quite

a watch earlier today to talk about that a lot more. i'm joining out from washington d. c by keith cow. he's an aster biologist of space blogger, and he's a former nasa employee. keith, it's, it's good to see you talk to me about the power that just a thrust that we solved from that rocket today. i mean, it is supposed to be the biggest, the strongest rocket, most powerful rocket ever built. well, you know, the biggest you can argue a bit on the numbers. it's a bad ass rocket to achieve some colloquial terms. it's the most powerful thing that's operational now, although few 100 miles to the west or something even more powerful being built. so we're big rockets are back in bigger than ever but unfortunately delays are also still with us. we know artemus plague by multiple delays or were these just some kinks that had to be worked out of the system or me?

how concerned are you moving forward because the next launch is going to have human beings on board $100.00. yeah, the next launch will also be in a year or 2 or 3. we're not even certain of that. and what this really points back to is that, you know, if you take a line from the movie, no, no bucks, no buck rogers. the, the rocket you saw take off was designed at the direction of congress to use parts from the shuttle, which was design when i was in high school 50 years ago. and i'm not making that up and it works. but is that the best way in the 21st century to build a rockets do that? the answers probably no could because space x and laura gen are building their own big rockets. that will be much cheaper. but at sat? yeah, it is, the rocket at yes is using what, why was there this push then to years? so from the, the space shuttle challenger of the space shuttle program, is it because nasa had to cut costs or was this true efforts at at recycling?

i guess, you know, i was doing this for 27 years. i was there through the whole saga. they said, oh, it will be cheaper. but everybody said no, wow. and in the net result, as it is far more expensive, and it took many more years than it should have taken to do this sort of thing. so it comes down to politics and who builds things where and who gets the money and who doesn't. and all that, sadly, the net result is, you know, last time a chick politicians were the best rocket scientist. yeah. yeah. you way. yeah. i think a lot of people would agree with you on that. what, what makes this mission? the one right now, i'm so important for nasa also for the european space agency. well, it everything aside. it's an amazingly large and complex and capable rocket. it did exactly what it was supposed to do. the moment they said go and now be a ryan spacecraft and this isn't a perfect model here, but you know, you have the spacecraft the capsule with some mannequins inside to test things out

in the service my job provided by europe. so this is right off the bat, it's an international mission that involves the united states, canada, japan, and all of europe. so yeah, we're going back a little bit similar way, but we're also going back internationally, which i think to me is important. yeah, i mean, i think a lot people would say this also assigned to of progress in a world that i'm not doing too good at the moment when it comes to working together before we run out of time. what about getting human beings back on the mood? i think we're talking about what 2025 is that really is that something you'd bet money on? i wouldn't bet on this because the, the numbers are always changing. let's just say we'll see the next flight with people in a year or 2. and then depending on budgets and everything else, we'll see them landing on the moon, perhaps in 4 or 5 years. so you and i will be around to see this as the cases, but it'll be this decade here if you're certain. yes. and to, to add, you know,

just, you didn't ask us, but a lot of people say all we did this before. well, 2 thirds of people on this planet have never seen anybody walk on another world. so for them it's the 1st time. very good boy, that last time they walked on the murder. i think i was still in diapers. i think keith cowan, i was in high school. i was in high school. yeah. you're, you're a little bit older but not much. he is always going to talk with you. thank you. my pleasure. well, the day's almost done, the conversation that continues online. you'll find us on twitter either w, she could follow me on twitter at brent gov tv. and remember whatever happens between now and then tomorrow is another day we'll see you then if with

with enter the conflict. so with tim, sebastian, russia has suffered key. busy reversals on the battlefield. that's key us horses have come to attacked and feed back a wide swayed of territory. my guest this week from moscow is andre kalashnikov, senior fellow, to think time to come eat endowment for international peace as anger mound among
