on artie's world news this hour animosity and overhaul in the white house donald trump replaces his chief of staff with the homeland security secretary we look at all the turbulence in fighting the current us administration has seen so far. also this hour the french president promises to rid the country of refugee camps and to better accommodate migrants it claims that police are abusing people who are returning to the side of the notorious jungle. and german police admit the suspect in a stabbing attack in hamburg on friday is a known islamist and failed asylum seeker.

here in the r.t. new center in moscow saturday evening at seven a lot to get through this hour not least of all the revolving door of pennsylvania avenue which is where we're going to start another major shakeup in donald trump's top team this time he's pushed out his chief of staff rents priebus typically the president announced it on twitter adding that homeland security secretary john kelly now had that job previous is the latest in just a string of high profile officials to head for the exits in the past six months a week ago of course the white house press secretary shoulder spicer he also abruptly left his position although that didn't really come as a complete surprise to a lot of people because he hadn't been appearing at briefings for quite some time however the dismissal of the f.b.i. director james comey back in may that did come as a major shock especially for him and one of the reasons that trump gave for that decision was the intelligence chief handling of the probe into hillary clinton using a private. will serve while she was secretary of state but before that the national

security advisor michael fled he was forced to resign just weeks into the job over contacts with russia jacqueline next looks at how relationships in the white house is starting to resemble one particular t.v. series between senate investigations and twitter wars the current u.s. presidency it has barely gotten the ball rolling but there has been plenty of drama we're our strongest when we're unified. this is a bunch of scumbags. president was being small president it's not presidential at all. for this country. mr speaker to call for the impeachment of the president boy have they tried i mean every single thing when i'm. finished i think they will absolutely. lately the bipartisan tug of war has shifted

to being on the lines of the enemy of my enemy is my friend take attorney general just not long ago he was considered one of trump most trusted allies whereas democrats were less than impressed he's a man of integrity a man of principle and a man of total utter resolve the cross the department of justice should be above reproach for the good of the country attorney general sessions should resign in just a couple of months trump's love for sessions has turned sour and lo and behold under chuck schumer suddenly coming to his defense i am disappointed in the attorney general he should not have recused himself even if the president has disagreements with him which i think are real found self-centered. and wrong. you don't ridicule him in public apparently there's a thin line between love and hate and that line is basically just

a few mean tweet and it works the opposite way as well let's look at former f.b.i. director james comey when he spoke out on the hillary clinton investigation praised his valor while the democrats were far from fleet it took guts for director komi to make the move that he made it light of the kind of opposition he had. the f.b.i. director has no credibility oh how the times have changed since he's a showboat he's a grandstander the f.b.i. has been in turmoil you know that i know that the reason that tony was fired was because donald trump wants to cut off any investigation and it's not just politicians who are easily swayed the media follows the changing tide as well george w. bush was slammed by the press and seen as one of the worst american presidents toward the end of his time in office he leaves office the most unpopular president in modern history this president performed so poorly we have

a president to transcend at least stupid he is the worst president of my lifetime but a few well aimed comments in an interview turned him into a white house favorite i consider the media media to be indispensable to democracy we need an independent media to hold people like me to account it's very funny to the sense of humor is coming well he said oh well respected mr president we want to thank you. even former white house press secretary sean spicer who was one of the media's favorite punching bags for some time is now feeling the love following his resignation rumor has it he may even become a reality t.v. star the political positions are breathtakingly incoherent their scripts are frantic with all due apologies to schizophrenia what is trump saying we were against it it's like that groucho marx songs is whatever you're for i'm against it it just depends because this isn't about platform the. sort of my conviction isn't about ideology it's about personality we have two parties in this country dram and

. thirteen the rule of thumb in washington these days it's a keep your enemies post and your friend in me is even closer at least until it's more beneficial to turn on the other party washington d.c. . next the french president some veiled an ambitious plan to rid the country of its migrant camps and to better accommodate refugees by the end of the year mr macross pledge came during a ceremony welcoming some of france's newest citizens. the first banks who is to house everybody in a dignified manner by the end of the year i will know more women than men in the streets in the woods last it's a question of dignity the question of humanity but also the fish and see everywhere with the emergency housing is built to welcome them i want administrative steps for their cases to be examined. francis struggled with refugee camps for years of course in fact migrants are still arriving at the site of the infamous former jungle camp in the northern port of kalai which was dismantled last year that said

human rights watch says that more than four hundred people are now there other estimates say could be as many as six hundred about half of them are unaccompanied minors police are warning it could lead to a repeat of the violence seen there in recent days. the old. one. was. home. as the refugees return to cali again human rights watch is accusing police there of abusing migrants on a routine basis describing it is like living in hell the rights group says pepper spray is being used on migrants even in circumstances when they pose no threat police are also being accused of confiscating sleeping bags and clothing from the

migrants while disrupting access to their humanitarian aid. the police admit that they are struggling to cope while the migrants say they feel abandoned by the authorities to spend my six month intelligence. and this is to all the people you'll see in france will give you fair farm. work yet in your life then separately in the process enough. for us. we have about six hundred migrants here now and we're expecting more there's a zero tolerance policy towards the settling of migrants and the reconstruction of the jungle the mission of the police is clear migrants must be prevented from sleeping in certain areas and from forming groups there's more and more tension including between the migrants themselves we also have difficulties with the far left which choice to promote a world without borders and without police they are particularly nervous about the

actions of the police they try to film in attackers that creates tensions so now that we have more work to do we've asked for reinforcements and of receive them from the interior ministry our job is not at all easy it's difficult to stop migrants from gathering in certain places. meanwhile reports of dire conditions are also coming from a migrant camp in northeast france china do better is there. alcohol violence and reports of rape that's the reality in this migrant camp that's being dubbed a humanitarian slum here in metz. the problem there is a problem with alcohol and violence even as the major were cafes problems they don't have food but they managed to get hold of alcohol we don't know how to handle the situation there is not enough security over the number of people here in the camp has been dismantled several times but every time it's taken down the new people

come and the camp is reformed locals ferments are concerned about its impact. this problem has to be addressed quickly for their sake as well as for us there suffer in. the city of metz was not prepared for the count the authorities emptied it but now there are seven hundred refugees back there again it's becoming a second we return to the camp after dark on route our taxi driver tells us about some of the problems. there are a lot of home break ins a lot of aggression they snatch women's handbags but no one talks about their own c.v. the migrants everywhere are immense. at the camp we find out migrants are apparently facing aggression as well from a certain community within the camp. where not. only. the problems why one of them of being fights yes they take your money.

as we speak with another man we're told to stop filming by security guards. the people here are hiding from those who are looking for them in their own country. if you show their faces on t.v. you're putting their lives driscoll we don't want journalists here. despite the worsening conditions and other issues both in and out of the camp more people continue to arrive. in ski r.t. metz. violent clashes are continuing to wreak havoc in venezuela or ahead of sunday's crucial vote on who will be responsible for rewriting the constitution about one indication of just how severe this is being regarded elsewhere air france and i beriah airlines have canceled all flights to caracas this weekend.

i. i i. i. i i. i i miss all the build up to sunday when venezuelans will decide whether they want changes to the country's legislative body from the very beginning the initiatives but i get the opposition which says it's simply a way of extending the president's power as we've been hearing from both sides of the divide. the purpose is not all it's a right there comes a delusion the purpose is to get rid of the nationalist were to war with two thirds

of the bow does precisely the reason and they have now but they did five percent of rejection of the regime sold the resources to the e.c.b. gold. and unconstitutional there's a presidential election in two thousand and eighteen were made during is going to be up for a vote in the opposition is going to run for president regardless of the outcome of the constituent assembly it's an open democratic process the opposition can run their own candidates and they can participate in it but they have called to boycott it instead of taking part and if they have the majority as a state they do pick it easily run with a majority of constituents and change the constitution how they want to see a change instead of opposed a democratic process and called for violence in the streets of the response this is not of them. and we're just not to try and do the demise of a little. and it. has been uncovered by saying that they want to determine the outcome of the political process in venezuela they have long been funding to the tune of new orleans and millions and millions of u.s.

taxpayer dollars to opposition parties to opposition movement no one wants us intervention even people members of the opposition that i spoke to do not want the us to intervene this is precisely. going to what you're going to eventually is that only the united states now makes it go announce that the united kingdom the parliament why. last summer than twelve days. and seven minutes so that's a lot of the lives of i believe it is people about fifteen hundred be wounded and we have almost two thousand people in jail the husband the price of a civic protest but it's this is just another lie that it's just honestly to justify foreign intervention in the country vast majority of those deaths that over one hundred deaths are caused by opposition violence over a dozen assassinations by opposition protesters against. people first of just for supporting the government i mean do you condemn those horrible political lynchings

third you condemn those horrific political assassinations we are a peaceful opposition the whole of the whole world recognizes the european union is not all of the united states twenty it's going to say let's in america the people who are being killed now whether they say they have been killed by the by our own people that's really rovers and i think it's very unfair to say. a man suspected of stabbing rampage in hamburg on friday is a known islamist according to german police the attack left one person dead and six others injured peter all of a has more on the story. well as we find out more information about what unfolded on friday evening in hamburg we've heard from the interior minister of that city states he's described the assailant he's in custody as a known islamised. the suspect was known to authorities there are indications of radicalization as for the motive there is

a reference to religious motivations on the one hand and islamic motives but on the other hand there are also signs of psychological instability so. we do know though is exactly what he did he went into this store he took a kitchen knife from one of the displays in the supermarket opened it from its packaging and then attacked people who were there that attack led to a fifty year old man suffering injuries from which he died while i was drinking coffee when i saw a young man approaching the area he pushed one person off a bike and then stabbed another one near a car and then stopped three more people he was shouting why are and brandishing a knife and after that he tried to run away the fact that this suspect was known to police was known to authorities as having connections to radical islamic groups is certainly going to raise questions if we cast our minds back to the end of last

year and the horrific terrorist attack that took place in berlin whereby a truck was driven into a christmas market that the perpetrator was also known to police as well so questions are going to be raised over just what it means to be on one of these watch lists what we do know that the main suspect the person that was arrested at the scene is a failed asylum applicant which is in turn turning questions again towards angola merkel's policy when it comes to refugees and migrants and seeing many people criticizing her government again for that policy. there's been unrest in east london over the death of a black man under arrest it's among the stories we've still got ahead for you here on r.t. . twenty twenty five years the smartest people in the world have left their industries and their disciplines join wall street as quantitative traders or money

managers there is a. wall street that is unparalleled big oil is marching into that pool of intelligence. seemed wrong. to shape out. and engagement equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground.

u.s. led coalition is now would be in iraq to investigate claims of war crimes committed by its military it's after a number of human rights organizations cold on washington to end its backing of one army unit in particular. there have been consistent reporting of allegedly laws of armed conflict violations recently any violation of the law of armed conflict is unacceptable and should be an investigated in a transparent parent manner we meet routinely with our partner forces to advise them on the expectations for thorough and transparent investigations and accountability for anyone found responsible for abuses and public disclosure of findings and actions taken here's some of the claims of abuse that human rights watch has documented the watch dogs reported that suspected members of islamic state were executed without trial some were found beheaded with children found

among those killed to some observers say the iraqi army used bulldozers to bury the bodies on the rubble. and we put these allegations to a member of the baghdad province acuity committee for his response but please be borne that we are about to show some images of graphic violence. problem is that we are speaking of a close knit society people know each other as city as a large city but those who were and role devices are very well known within the city the people who were prosecuted by isis now are leading the sixteen division and basically they see it as payback time the sixteen division was formed by the united states trained by the united states and controlled by the united states so definitely if there is any human rights violation. it's very obvious that those who controlled or formed this division must understand all must pay some

type of at least moral responsibility because i mean nobody here sympathizes with isis supporters or isis numbers so but from a legal point of view yes this is an issue that needs to be looked at. the streets of london have been hit by a rash staffed or a protest over the death of a black man resulted in clashes with police. i think. some of the protesters were seen throwing fireworks at the police who attempted to disperse the crowd several bins were also set on fire in the middle of one street the demonstrators had gathered on friday evening to demand justice for a twenty year old black man who died after being restrained by an officer a week ago the rally began near the place where the man was apprehended an independent commission is investigating his death. staying with the u.k.

and prime minister to resign may's last yet another of her top strategists she was also recently voted britain's most unpopular leader ever at this stage of a premiership nonetheless despite the turmoil at home she's enjoying a three week long break in central europe everybody needs a holiday i guess or a boy who takes up the story the prime minister was meant to be getting away from it all but back in london yet another member of her senior team has gotten away from her downing street now former director of strategy chris wilkens has quit this follows four other resignations of may's closest aides the prime minister has now been abandoned by the very people that helped set out television for braggs it the choice is becoming ever more clear. with our eyes fixed on the future strong and stable leadership with me as prime minister to see us through brics it and beyond or

a coalition of chaos but with the plans architects no longer in the picture to reason may is short of advise is at a time when she needs the most critically wounded prime minister she either disastrous election campaign an election campaign that she won since a twenty four percent ahead and then losing this latest resignation of chris will cain is just not that example of part of the disastrous to. the election rolling off the ship like rats i think that this is wounded government and a wounded prime minister britain has less than two years to negotiate bragg's it on its current course but brussels is still waiting for clarification of the u.k. stance on key issues and to resume a struggles don't tend with brags that the scandal over the grenfell fire disaster rages on london's metropolitan police have now announced that local authorities are under suspicion of corporate manslaughter meanwhile to resume

a has admitted the party has been wrong on gay rights in the pasta with may now being urged to compensate tens of thousands of men who had been convicted in the u.k. under anti-gay laws decades ago to reason may is now the most unpopular british leader one month after a general election opposition leader gerry corbin's fortunes have gone the of the way his popularity is now soaring but despite talk of cabinet rifts and disagreements publicly to resume a senior ministers putting up a united front at least for now she goes into the election and we didn't get the majority she wanted but she won the most seats she won the most votes i think she will last they see no. need for anymore political coup for what the british people want to see is a government that gets on with the job and they've got that with treason but in a sign that the policy could be seeking to disassociate itself from its beleaguered

leader to resign may's picture was removed from the conservative website although with the next two years expected to be dominated by tough talks with brussels perhaps the only thing keeping to reason may the job is that no one else wants that party boy see dead well that's it from a unit here in about thirty five minutes to keep you updated over the coming hours this is a scene from moscow thanks for watching. fleur used to be a professional hockey player who won a stanley cup and the moment the girl who was living the dream but he sits in

a dark side. time i was fourteen to sixteen i was raped one hundred fifty times but . i was molested in a dark room and so you know every time i close my eyes i can sleep after many years of silence he speaks and unites with other things so you are going from toronto. walking and walking to the victor walk it's to create awareness and promote healing around the subject child sexual abuse this type of behavior is absolutely acceptable because of the sentences that are handed down through the justice system . that he's just the face he'd be. so that you can be. i have to say still to come thank you he's just not that this to the jury but they seem to believe that's gets to be things about the leaders.

were so many. of us. feel. i. was. well i think i was i thought i was. ok i am a director of my palm peo gave an interesting out of breath queue when i last week and which he thoughtfully and diligently. sprayed

a pile of horse. out of his face holes. with the speed and intensity madge's only by an exploding star so. what is the american interest in syria other than the defeat of isis which i assume will probably happen relatively soon in the same way that it happened in northern iraq won't be soon enough america's interests are larger than just syria right so we have to think about syria the context of the greater middle east and it is providing the conditions so that we can have a more stable middle east to keep america safe well a more stable middle east yes it is amazing how many bombs are required to create a stable middle east. book fewer americans die from isis each year than die from

checking to see how much gasoline is in a gas can by using a little match to look in there. so how about we stop obliterating the middle east and instead use that money on an educational campaign about how to look inside gas cans with flashlights. then we would save americans pompei i was next asked how he feels about the media reporting on wiki leaks material here's what the spy ring aspirating pregnant rhinoceros had to say. yeah it's a it's a difficult question given this fuzzy little first amendment thing we've got going on here. and as they could tell i love the first amendment i'm all about it. just want to make sure that's very clear those of you in the back watching i love the first amendment look. do you know why they're all laughing mike they're laughing because they can tell you're full of.
