the the, you're watching the, the, the names coming to live from berlin, rhonda sanchez drops out of the us presidential race. the form of republican candidates says it's clear to him that most party supporters wants to give donald trump another chance at the white house. also coming up on the show at india's prime minister and on here it's a into temple on a side with a history of blood shot and a mass turned out in germany's capital against the countries far right. police say 100000 people demonstrated here in berlin. having a weekend of protest across the country, the
8:01 am
. i'm sorry richardson. welcome. florida. as governor rhonda santos has ended his bid for the republican nomination for president of the united states, he been perhaps the most viable republican alternative to donald trump. and the santas announced the end of his campaign on sunday with an endorsement for the former president's about lease trump with just one last a long shot challenger standing between him and a re match with president joe biden in november. dropping out of the presidential nomination race, troy, the governor on desantis has endorsed former president donald trump, even though early pals suggested he wasn't a strong position to take him on. it's clear to me that the majority of republican primary voters want to give donald trump another chance they watched his presidency get stymied by relentless resist sense. and they see democrats using lothair this
8:02 am
day to attack you. well, i've had disagreements with donald trump, such as on the corona virus pandemic, and his elevation of anthony's bouchee trump is superior to the current incumbent joe biden. that is clear. his farewell from the scene left us the folders disheartened very deflate is very upset. this is not good news at all. um, i'm very upset, but it happened and it's very deflating upsetting for some, but not the listing for others campaigning in new hampshire, where republicans will get their 1st chance to gust ballots for a nominee, especially donald trump. and his supporters, even though he's been endorsed by the census drum, still faces one serious challenger. nikki haley, drums farmer, are you invested or comes down to this? do we want more of the same? or do you want something different?
8:03 am
and more of the same, is it just joe biden. more of the same is also donald trump. but even if hailey can defeat trump in new hampshire, it will take a lot more to losing his grip on a party. he's dominated since 2016. the show because the policy analyst and washington dc does work for the us state department. i asked her how surprise she was after hearing about the santas is departure. it's pretty surprising. nobody leaves after taking 2nd and i was this for early in the game. is it, it's just kind of unprecedented at this point that he would bell out. my immediate reaction was a deal somewhere has been made and i was kind of waiting to see. was it a deal to trump or was it a deal to hailey? what is the fact that the scientist has now given it from his endorsement is, is that perhaps a deal behind closed doors that you're referring to? and i would not be surprised. and that's exactly what i was looking for. the only
8:04 am
way republicans could have nominated someone other than trump was if they all color less around one person. last week when i would caucus happened the next 3 folks behind trump together would have beaten him right away. the back drops out. he endorses trumps. and now it is just samples of haley, diseases endorsing trump is a surprising business, means it isn't for the democrats, it's for trunk. and trump has indicated he already has a c p pick in mind. and. and who do we think that vp takes might be in your view? he's been quite but there's a lot of stuff. fines that say the santas at least thinks that it could be him. and that's why he probably agree for some tile to do this. okay, so let's zoom out a little bit and think about what this means for what is increasingly looking like a potential re match between biden and trump to become the next president of the united states. i mean, really now the only contender standing in from the way for that competition is
8:05 am
nikki haley. does it, does she stand any realistic chance of beating them here? she's definitely an outside or the next contest is new hampshire, or any cancer likes to think of itself as kind of an average safety at the unexpected state. so there is a chance she could do well in new hampshire, in the se, following that is her home state of south carolina. so i wouldn't totally count her out yet, but i would say that it's a long shot. okay. and so if she, if you were to have, you know, a surprise upset and do really well in new hampshire, say, what would, what would the next step be? how much of a long shot are we talking about here? as she comes a lot closer, especially with the state following that south, south carolina. and this would mean that they're, that republicans, irene, for a real primary versus right now i think trump is signaling. he wants to caution this right now and head into the general. and so i think a lot of people would come out of the woodwork to support her and keep it hobbling along. so i think it would extend the primary. i am not super helpful to secure
8:06 am
their nomination. well, thank you so much for sharing your expertise with us. that's at least a political scientist in washington dc. thank you. to india and our prime minister and the render moody is opening a controversial hindu temple in the northern town of a oh yeah, it was built on the ruins of a 16th century mosque which was destroyed during deadly secretary and classes in 1992 where you're looking at right here is a live footage from iowa in the northern india where the prime minister is opening that temple to the end. do god, lord rom. and this event is really being seen as historic for the countries and do majority. let's speak to our data view daily bureau chief. i'm re touching my for much more on this. i read the greatest thing you. can you tell us a little bit more about what is happening here in georgia and just give us a sense of the scale of this ceremony a high click
8:07 am
a big moment for india just a few minutes ago that the law as they call them the i just off a 5 year old drum was on vision in a you with you by the prime minister and all the priest around him. and the unveiling was still this moment just a few moments ago. the i do as of 51 inch. i just had a blind forward, and that was symbolizing that he was just a piece of stone, but by picking up the vine for his now god soak or life. and that is just happened a few minutes ago. a big moment for believing can do is in india because they've been getting to see this for quite a while. now we're looking at, i'm looking at life, which is where the problem, the system performing such and rituals. and suddenly these and these ceremonies in rituals that have been going on for the past 3 days, i just now reached the combination. the final point, when the unveiling of the idol has taken place,
8:08 am
you asked me about the scale in india is a big country. everything is big yes, but this event is mega and the drum of the deity is a very popular and much loved by large numbers of believing can do is especially in northern india. and sort of lots of people have turned up the 88000 invite of guess tens of thousands of ordinary people when i showed the 2 for this cetera, many and not just in india and just thought in your own over india. this settlement is being has in tampa as people have gone drum flags outside the houses. this has been the kid up of the call today in certain places and also outside the dies for the outside. india is also celebrating somebody that really looks like we're looking at this ceremony of epic proportions here. but, but this temple has also been a political slash point has in it. i mean, many see this as moody with thing of support for his re election campaign had of elections in india beginning in april. but can you tell us more about the
8:09 am
significance of this temple? so what, what does that mean? say is if this is this temporarily consecration, as they call it, is nothing to do with an election campaign. it's certainly part of this election manifesto and has been since 2014. so, but the opposition says the timing of this consecration shows the says everything to do with elections, the elections haven't been announced. and india is yet due to take place in april or may. and the fact that this temper construction is not complete. and this concentration is going on, the opposite opposition says it proves its points. the physical above elections. now are you asked me about the significance of this template for many believing can do is the significance is a believe that this template it was a, is the book place of the beloved lord rom. and that's why it's a very important historic day for them. i guess this 100 temple is built on the
8:10 am
site of a mosque that was raised by him. do mobs in 1992 as a tell us more about how india's muslim minority is looking at this. yes, this is a contested site. a clear, as you mentioned, this was the slides of a boss of 16 century mos which was raised to the ground by can do radicals and 1992 . but in $19.19, it's a few years later, the supreme court gave this month a month away and said the attempt to could be built on it. now the muslims, most of them accepted this decision by the supreme court, but it has remained a festering warrant for the muslims. and this wound has re open today because they believe that that they would not given complete justice. and daughter supreme court said it was an in because the demolition the temple was student based on this side . so it would be fair to say class that for many listings today, it's not
8:11 am
a day of celebration. now of course officially india is, is secular. but what do you think that what do you think this temples opening really says about the role of religion in india today? that is true. india has a secular constitution and secularism is inclined in the end. the constitution of india promising that there'd be no kind of a discrimination of any religion, but most importantly that they would be a separation of politics and religion. now obviously a is many people here believe in there is a way of life, so cannot take it away from everyday life. but that many shouldn't do is believing in those. and secular induced was slightly uncomfortable above using this temple ceremony as a political event. because all the leading politicians of the, from the a ruling party. and they made it so much into a political event that some people are very uncomfortable about this. and they say
8:12 am
this shouldn't do a such as mis. and an, an, and a trying to reclaim a glorious can do boss. pre colonial can do boss is not good for the sake of the a fabric of the nation. i'm going to thank you so much for bringing us up to speed on the navigation of that hindu temple and you'll get that is our bureau chief and deli, i'm ridiculous. we'd have time to take a look at some other world news headlines at this hour. a landslide has buried a 47 people killing at least 2 of them in china's south western and united province . authorities say they've evacuated hundreds of people from the area which is experiencing temperatures below freezing. land flies are common and you're not around it's steep mountain ranges. police in ecuador have arrested almost 70 alleged gang members on suspicion of attempting to take over a hospital. authorities like the suspects tried to free an injured associate from
8:13 am
the medical facility near the city. enquire to the areas in the midst of what is being called a war between drug gangs and security forces and a powerful atlantic storm. it has a thrash, ireland leaving thousands without power. more than a $150.00 flights were cancelled at dublin airport storm e shop prompted authorities to declare the highest level of warning for several parts of ireland, northern england and scotland to and as rarely prime minister benjamin netanyahu was rejected conditions step by homos for the release of more than a $130.00 hostages, still believe to be held in gaza. then yahoo statement follows a weekend of protests over his government's handling of the war. with many calling for early elections is rarely liter said that i am off as demands and mounted to surrender terms after it's her attack on october 7th. this footage of dock and winding passage ways released by these riley. i'm
8:14 am
a claims to show with some hostages were held in gaza by him, us images that are likely to hold the families of those still missing many have gathered outside prime minister benjamin netanyahu is jerusalem hern, demanding the government strike a deal to get the loved ones back after $107.00 days, we are demanding that they fix the failure from the 7th. and that can only start with returning all of the hostages alive. bringing home 136 hostages in bags can never be considered any part of a victory. they want the government to consider a deal offered by him us to set free for hostages and exchange for an end to the war. and the release of palestinian prison is held by israel. that's
8:15 am
something missing. yahoo has lastly refused saying cease why? i would guarantee a replace of how must has terror attacks on israel. i need to cry early, reject the most most. there's capitulation terms, mazda, demanding, and exchange for the release of our hostages. the end of the war, the withdrawal of our forces from cause of the release of the murderers and rapists of promises military wing and leaving him us in place for we to agree to this, our soldiers would have fall in vain. we would not be able to insure the security of our citizens, but whether continuing the war will take is really safe or succeed in getting the hostages home is a question dividing israel. i spoke earlier, cdw special correspondent, abraham speeds me from jerusalem to talk more about the rejected hostage deal a by netanyahu. and i also asked her about reports of a possible new round of ceasefire talks with egypt and guitar as well. these are
8:16 am
still reports, media reports to be exact, and what we are hearing is that a senior by an administration official is in the region of this week. first, they will go to cairo, egypt to meet with senior intelligence officers and a senior members of the security apparatus there. and from the egypt, this senior biden administration official, we'll move on to a doha and cuts are to meet with a senior country officials and diplomats there are no egypt and caught our 2 countries that have played a key role in previous negotiations between israel on her mazda, including the, the, the, the, the, the hostage for prisoner exchange deal that we saw a release a quite a large number of hostages. but these are still on current unconfirmed
8:17 am
reports. it's unclear what the outcome will be, but from what we understand the deal is aimed at a more comprehensive conclusion of the war that would include possibly the withdrawal of israeli troops and the release of hostages. but we've been here before, and these, these deals are very fragile. there are a lot, there are a lot of moving parts. and so it's unclear what the timeline is and how successful this will be given that one a offer from how much has now been categorically rejected by a prime minister netanyahu. and a, a many of the hostages of families are at this point, really desperate to get their loved ones home. and even if that means making major concessions to him off, but how much support is there in israel for their position? so i think there's a lot of support further position, and it's a, it's a small country. and even though they're now a $130.00 around
8:18 am
a $130.00 hostage, believe to be in the israel, it's something that everybody feels i think it is real on to some extent, on an individual level. what happened, the 7th of october was really a sort of collective trauma where you don't have to really be related to someone who was taken to stand by them and to share in their demands. and i think the desperation that the families are reaching now is also not new. i remember speaking to hostage families and protesters and even 2 months ago, a month into a, the war. and i remember sharing even back then, the slogan, all for all meaning, let us exchange all of the is really hostages for all of the palestinian prisoners in is really a jails. and there is no mounting anger. i mean, the protests that we see for the release of the hostages are not a new phenomenon. they've been happening virtually every,
8:19 am
every weekend since the beginning of the war. but in the past couple of days, we really have seen an intensification of these protests with a direct wouldn't even more pronounced and direct criticism ad the prime minister himself. so i would say there is widespread support for the demand. more should be done to bring the hostages back. a thank you so much for bringing us up to speed. there are special correspondent abraham in jerusalem. here in germany, organizers say more than 1400000 people have taken part in weekend demonstrations against the far right protests for housing around a 100 locations across the country with some of the raleigh's ending early because of overcrowding. oh wow. from outside the rights to getting the lien who said right has come to the cassandra of cologne, cities across germany. what was the whelmed by chance of?
8:20 am
never again a munich organizes had to cut the demonstration shots sizing over crowding. protest as had already made the message clear, rejecting the fall rights and any slides back to fascism. i just think about what has happened and that it must never happen again. does that not seize, right? wingers and flashes on time to power in any form unknown. right now, we're already on a very bad top guns. i'm very happy that there are so many people here showing that there is another way i can go get. the nationwide outrage was treated by records that right wing extremists had meant to discuss to pushing millions of immigrants, and even german citizens with migrant background. men visit the alternative for jen natasha. he attended the meeting with the state has since distanced itself from the plan. a fall rights policy has strong support and recently came 2nd do national
8:21 am
opinion polls. regional elections are set to take place in just a few months time, including in germany's eastern states where a state is particularly hope to talk. we definitely hope that we can change people's mind. somebody not sure whether they will vote for se, but after these demonstrations, they simply can't do that anymore. so that's a great trinity design. yes, many probably just as se, germany's democracy is a state officer, a weekend of mass rallies across the country. coles of grand, loud a, if the to be bent. so let's talk a little bit more about these protests that we saw all over germany. this weekend enjoys now by deed of use of political corresponded hands, brand hands, good to see um, 1st of all, can you page a fuller picture for us here? i'm curious if you can tell us more about who it was that we saw protesting and why exactly we're seeing this now. that's what at 1st on. so what you can say is that it was kind of the usual suspects,
8:22 am
a quote for these demonstrations. they were tied, union so involved that was the climate action fridays for future organization, the organization supporting migraines and organizations from across the political spectrum in some sense. um, and what was actually surprising is that the number of people that then came out on the streets with people that were not necessarily linked to all of these organizations. they were quite a lot of young people. people who was supposed to, for instance, the climate action movement. but one could also see entire families, including the children and quite a lot of senior citizens. all the people, even the age of people who came out on the streets. because i felt that the situation had reached a point where they could no longer stay silence, stay at home. and the situation has changed because partly because the, the, the squire to about the performance and pose of the alternative for germany. this
8:23 am
a right wing party in germany because that the performance has been so disturbing to so many people that's been doing quite well in recent opinion. polls the 2nd nationally, and they are leading with what of a 30 percent of the vote. and so it in federal states and germany in eastern germany. and then on top of that, they were revelations, recently a box, a secret meeting by some top leaders of the a if the with some extreme right wing is looking at plans. how to reports millions of people with a migrant background from germany. and it's those millions of people who are also affected. so they also a lot of people within modern spectrum to have these demonstrations. and has that really been the catalyst for these protests? you think? because as you say, the a f t has been performing very well in the polls of late to yes, i think that was the catalyst. i think of it is a, as i say,
8:24 am
a kind of disturb feeling in general in the population that the fascist post of germany could return. and then what we saw was somewhere around a 100 years ago in the twenty's and the 1920s might be repeated on the 20 twenty's . but at the same time, i think you have to say that these kinds of demonstrations are very unusual. the last time we saw these numbers of people on the streets here and balloon was just over 2 over 2 years ago when the war and ukraine saw the in russia invited to try and but beyond that, it's maybe 40 years ago the peace movement in the 1980s that was able to mobilize these large numbers of people. and we are looking ahead to several important regional elections in germany this year. i suppose the big question 100 is whether these large scale approach as will actually have an impact on how people vote do. do you think they're likely to turn people off the f t? so that's a very, very big question and nobody's able to answer that has in them. and i think they
8:25 am
already access from both to as of the f d from supporters of the a d h d, who say that nobody can move them away from that part of the party itself has been saying that it sees no danger to it's support phase from these, from these demonstrations and of course that is also part of his protest is also a protest against the government of the account. johnson the own shrugs. because people feel that the policies that they have been following and recent years have put happening. policies that have not played against the amc that's really played into that. and so the political situation above it will be on these demonstrations is a very complex one. but as you say, we're having regional elections, especially in 3 eastern german states in september this year, with this policy, the f d is leading the calls and there's a lot of concern. but if they wouldn't that the election in those regions, the situation could turn a lot more difficult in,
8:26 am
