around the clock across the world this is our team international from the team and myself you know neil welcome to the program there's been another major shakeup in donald trump's top team this time he's pushed his chief of staff writes pre-suppose as you might have guessed the president announced it all on twitter saying that homeland security secretary john kelly the job priebus is the latest in a string of high profile officials to head for the exit in the past six months a week ago the white house press secretary sean spicer also abruptly left his position now that didn't come as a complete surprise to many as he hadn't been appearing at briefings for some time however the dismissal of the f.b.i. director james comey back in may. did come as

a major shock one of the recent. decision was the intelligence chief handling of the probe into hillary clinton using a private e-mail server while secretary of state before that his still a security adviser michael flynn was forced to resign over contacts with russia. looks at how relationships in the white house are starting to resemble a notable 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 are strongest when we're unified. this is a bunch of scumbags. president was being small president it's not presidential. but we're all going to. 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 jeff sessions not long ago he was considered one of trump's 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 cause 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 senator chuck schumer is 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 tweets 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 pleased it took guts for director comey 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 then 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 is said about conviction it's not

anti russia sanctions bill america's top diplomat has explained the thinking behind the legislation rex tillerson says moscow should no take greater steps to get relations back on track the near unanimous votes for the sanctions legislation in congress represent the strong will of the american people to see russia take steps to improve relations with the united states we hope that there will be cooperation between our two countries on major global issues and these sanctions will no longer be necessary russia had back with countermeasures on friday it told the united states to cut the number of diplomatic staff it hasn't a country by first stop september moscow also said it would seize two u.s. diplomatic properties starting next month that includes a warehouse in the south of moscow with an area of more than two thousand square meters u.s. diplomats will also be stopped from using the riverside retreat located in one of
3:13 pm
the capital's parks it was used by staff members for leisure and barbecues. meanwhile the russian embassy in the u.s. is puzzled by secretary tillerson statement on the sanctions it says that some washington has failed to realize that pressure isn't working in relations with moscow former british diplomat craig murray thinks it's a bomb attempt to send a more positive message. it's not the most logical thing to say we want to improve relations therefore we are imposing sanctions. to be fair to to listen he's slightly less crazy than many of the people involved in american politics at senior level that's not a very high bar but he is slightly less crazy and i think he his statement was trying to be diplomatic and lessen the impact and be less insulting to russia than the he might otherwise have been i think that's why you have a logical statement explaining these sanctions to which was not nearly any sensible

justification at all. a man suspected of a stabbing rampage in hamburg on friday is a known islamist the cording to german police the attack left one person dead and six others injured peter all of our has been following developments 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 state 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 islamic motives but on the other hand there are also signs of psychological instability. 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 the bike and then stabbed another one near a car and then step three more people he was shouting why are. and brandishing a knife and after that he try 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 we do know that the main suspect the person that was arrested at the

way his popularity is now thawing but despite talk of cabinet rifts and disagreements publicly to resume a senior ministers a 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 the scene. a need for any more 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 party 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 in that job is that no one else once set. r.t. london. for the u.s. led coalition is now urging iraq to investigate claims of war crimes committed by
