to the listeners and they're going to do whatever they can to get rid of trump. and so they have to do, they tries. and so we're here to learn whether or not they're not going to happen in a closed political unity shops, 5 or president's joe biden cooled and americans to dial down the rhetoric. there is no place in america, this kind of violence for any violence ever period or exceptions. we can't allow this violence to be normalized. you know, the political record of this country has gotten very heated. it's time to cool down . 2 days after the share too many questions remain. how could an armed attacker gets within shooting range of the former president? did the secret service ignore early warning, some of the audience? and what was the motive? clear of a picture of the shooters emerging, but some information is conflicting. he was a member of a local gun club and

a registered member of the republican party that he also donated to democratic cause. as in the past, police police, the weapon he used to shoot to trump belongs to his father and was purchased the degree. the officials all set sounds like they described as a suspicious device in the shoot. this vehicle has been decided by bomb technicians with bad supporters of the former presidents have been housing gatherings around the country outside trump tower, new york crowds phones to show that support was strong. trump is now in milwaukee attending the republican national convention outside the venue. his supporters, how the video, trump, himself has said he wants to use this historic commitment to bring the country

together. ramifications of the assassination attempt and not yet. so we know budget has most definitely raised the stakes for this is election dramatically. let's take a look at some of the stores making news around the world. syrians in government health areas of feeling like seeing a new polymer. and so it has little real how within the countries presidential system opposition groups and labeling the folks of foster to see such a election since the south pacific. 30 years ago? london's have been focusing for, i presume, investor in the pool can be expected to secure another time in office. if i study 2 challenges, several prominent opponents were bought from standing police in can you have arrested amount allegedly, behind a series of groups. and by this, the dismembered bodies of several victims are found on a garbage dump. officials say the suspected serial killer has admitted management. dozens of when police have been scouring this site and nairobi over the

weekend, used as a dumping ground for bodies. crowds gathered, watching in horror as investigators pulled out one bag after the other, all containing body parts of the women killed. and now they say they have the suspect in custody. from the look of things, it is crystallizing that we are dealing with a city or to a site called parts of the serial killer who us no respect for human life. according to police, the suspect has confessed to killing thousands of women including his own life. the suspects confused, fluid, keen under disposed for the 2 female bodies of

a dumping site on monday between 20 to 2 and they sent us last day. 11th over july 2024. just a 100 meters away from the dump where the bodies were found. the suspects homes were investigators that they found, i'm a chevy, plastic bags and the personal belongings of suspected victims crisis and kenya, which has one of the highest rates of fantasize in africa with an average of 47 women losing their lives every week. we take you back to the top story about donald trump shooting adopters, cynthia and miller addressed as a professor at the american university. i'm director of beth polarize ation antics . dream is in research and innovation lab. she joins us from washington. d. c. a.

welcome to the w. uh, president binds aesthetics time to cool down the political rhetoric in the united states. donald trump said he's rewritten his speech for the r n. c to focus on unity. did you make a connection between painted political rhetoric and the address action as i do actually think that the political rhetoric in this country is connected to violent outcomes. however, what i would say is, i think the problem is just as just as big i'm of ordinary people as it is among political leads even after the shooting among people i know very well on social media, i would hear, you know, see things like you report you so, or you know, basically indicating this is a deserved attack and i think that's really dangerous and risky when you have the ordinary people, ordinary citizens on the ground, just supporting and calling for political violence. and we're in

a dangerous situation. and the statistics on this end are very bad in terms of large numbers of americans, 20 percent in recent full, i saw being willing to support sort of islands or thinking that's that's a necessary tactics to achieve their outcomes. ok, so is it getting worse? because a quick google reveals an uncomfortable number of attempted shootings and stoppings of us politicians and the time is over the last few years to yes, i think it's getting worse here. and of course also overseas. i mean, we have seen attempted assassinations or political assassinations in germany, in the u. k. in recent years, and we've had these kid, nothing thoughts and the us against it. and governors, as well as the juniors 6 types of event and then and then tons of stress is the talk on nancy percy's home and other. so this definitely is getting worse.

it's definitely an escalating type of situation. but we've also seen this before. and in the political assassinations of the 19 sixty's, the attempt on a ronald reagan's life and 1981. we're reverting sort of to an era in which political assassinations and threats against elected officials are seen as a legitimate tactics 5 islands actors. so even though in this case it should be clear, we still don't know the motive. and so remember that ronald reagan attack was, you know, someone who wanted to impress a movie star. and you know, we don't actually know for sure what the motive was in this case. however, the outcome is still quite risky in terms of escalations affordable balance. okay, so looking back over, that's about recent history. i'm. are you saying that it was bad? it leveled off and now it's worse. oh, has it always been so the bottom bubbling, a bubbling away in the background. it was always bad. i think we had a very volatile period in the 19 sixty's, obviously where political assassinations were a tactic where we saw assassinations,

martin luther king, it presidential assassination and never saw that all the way up into the early 19 eighties. and then we really didn't. i mean, in my own lifetime, uh, that certainly was not something that was a possibility. i will say that over the last couple of years that is exactly the kind of thing i was expecting to see. i think others like me in the field. we're expecting to see this because that's the level of threat we were seeing those threats, escalating not just against sitting elected officials, but candidates, librarians, school board members elected officials at the local level, really receiving death threats. and when you see that type of thing, plus you see the successful attempts a political assassination abroad are plots that are broken up as you've had in germany as well. the well, so the like okay, so forgive me for, sorry, jumping out of just wait for some base. the last question in so does,

does this assassination attempt against donald trump? does not mock a turning point? you expect things to get better, or is this just a not on the up with trajectory? do you think we're going to see a change in language among elected officials? we're already seeing that calls for unity. they're nervous, of course, they're scared. this is a wake up call, a reckoning moment for them. the question is, you know, is the genie out of the bottle already kind of be put back in. and i certainly what i'm seeing in my ordinary citizens indicates that there's no going back for them. they are angry as many of them on the left say this is justified because the report you sell encompass using violent roderick. and on the right, there's a lot of conspiracy theories of pulse black ideas and a blame against media. so yeah, it's not, i don't think we're, we're in a situation where we're likely to see a decline in the book or violence at the moment. thank you for guiding us through that. so today the professor, professor cynthia, and the address from the american university in washington.
