3:09 pm
a democrat jim collins letter my primary opponent and a lot of his supporters sexism and the massaging the resentment the stereotype. a lot of people didn't want to hear my plan. for an even more detailed explanation of hillary clinton has just released a new book entitled what happened in the book clinton managed to blame everyone and everything under the sun including jill stein julia songe barack obama and of course of lattimer put. mentioning him and russia about three hundred thirty three times clinton even leveled attacks at senator bernie sanders for impugning her character but here's what else happened the e-mail scandal when it turned out clinton lied about handling classified information as secretary of state there is no classified materials our investigation found that there was classified information so it was not true let's not forget the constant shaming of tromso.
3:10 pm
orders you could put half of supporters into what i call the basket of deplorable zx and then there was a major strategic miscalculation when she chose not to campaign in the rust belt losing the democratic fire wall that obama won in two thousand and eight and two thousand and twelve the same rust belt voters bernie sanders won over during the primaries hillary clinton says she doesn't plan to run for president again but she's definitely making sure she steals the spotlight with response on. on our to washington d.c. and in the book clinton does go. to a character from the fancy t.v. it's game of thrones and it goes a mixed response on. they shouted guilty guilty like the religious zealots and game of thrones chanting shame

3:12 pm
. everyone who isn't. isn't it basically you're saying that there's there's nothing you're going to do differently as a way to try to win over his supporters i. am let's start from that premise for losing the people. here have the people you think. meanwhile internet giant amazon has been accused of deleting negative reviews of clinton's latest memoirs from its website and the ad was immediately after the book's publication which. five hundred pages long by the way hundreds of one star reviews did appear and that led to a rising over whether they had been posted by people who had actually read the book and saw the comments were them removed quickly here's what amazon had to say about
3:13 pm
the issue. it's no role to decide view as helpful or unhelpful in making that decision we do have mechanisms in place to ensure that the voices of many to drown out the voices of a few customers are. the guidelines amazon participate in the usual then that the mainstream media do their propping up clinton the propping up the democrats removing any negativity just as they did during the election campaign constantly criticizing donald trump managed supporters and constantly saying she was going to win she lost this is just the next chapter if you don't mind me say in her loss well i'm surprised that that many people have actually read the book or even bother to read the book why would you want to really read a book by the loser. now the u.s. is building up its presence in poland at the moment more than a thousand military vehicles of them four hundred are cracked and they do include
3:14 pm
nearly two hundred tanks an entire infantry division as part of the existing nato force in eastern europe while the u.s. general heading up the european deployment does say it is in response to troops which start today between russia and bella roofs he added that a deal is needed to allow the free movement of troops across europe similar to the use open border shang agreement and that would allow u.s. units to be deployed in nato member states with that country's permission but so far only five are set to back the idea meanwhile american troops are also taking part in sweden's biggest military trials in more than twenty years a rule seventeen here is taking place on an island in the middle of the baltic sea is me girl francis santiago on why the neutral nation does feel the need for a large military exercises. there is a very oh out there on sweden that p.

3:16 pm
a larger sophisticated opponent that one will approach from the east nineteen thousand participants just from sweden alone as well as military forces from eight other countries have joined these drills called arora seventeen and you guessed it the united states is also there the united states with their allies and partners are doing this this is normal business for us that's going to be our posture normal business we train all the time we work soldiers work always to be at the highest level of preparation not alert but being prepared that's that's our job that's what you would expect us to be ready just like you expect the fire department to be ready at the hospital to be reading very nice business as usual but not for sweden it's getting back it's mandatory military draft which was canceled the two thousand and two but now in twenty thousand at least four thousand swedes. will get the call
3:17 pm
all in the swedish military is now going to enjoy a nice growth in military spending for the next few years even the low key swedish resort jewel of gotland with its sandy beaches an intriguing limestone has been introduced to the swedish military they've been stationed there since two thousand and sixteen and still to no avail no attacks have come from the east but wait a second there was a russian spies submarine alert a few years ago the scandinavian military went full swing into a large scale search mission in the end it all turned out to be nothing but a fishing boat seriously so now the swedish military are staging these massive drills to make sure they can protect the nation from an attack which they themselves deem i quote unlikely seems like an overreaction i wonder what is that about perhaps stockholm taunting a thread that doesn't really exist as sweden's favorite album once sang that's the
3:18 pm
name of the game at least when it comes to russia media france and thiago r.t. . but in a member of the no to nato action group does believe the drills are being forced upon the swedish people despite a lack of popular support. this is the first three meeting of the land agreement that sweden took with the united states this was the first spring it went to the parliament we know that the swedish people did not want this agreement but pushed it through the parliament this by the fact that we are against it there are several parties in the problem and they're against that they pushed it through and this is the first big maneuver to show that one can train together we hear every day on our newspapers in the t.v. you hear the interviews with the military saying oh this is very important we must know these training exercises. that officials in the restive spanish region of

3:21 pm
i think it's really really difficult at the well if how letting people a vote in democracy and supporting this out of the muck receive the referendum could be could be attributed it as a crime i believe in in democracy in a way i want. to protect to defend the democratic rights of our people and if i have to explain this to the provincial prosecutor i want to have any problem to go down in the area everyone will realize that what we need is common sense when it is. a one when it is to try to calm things down. by respecting the result by respect to the free will of the people. the u.s. senate has voted overwhelmingly against an amendment to the defense authorization
3:22 pm
act had it been passed america's foreign military interventions would all have needed reauthorize ation by congress within six months but the act was originally brought in shortly after nine eleven and has given the u.s. a justification for launching a number of wars in the global fight against terrorism it gives the american president the ability to use force against groups that have attacked the u.s. and his ultimately pave the way for more than sixteen years of conflicts but we discussed the matter with ron paul a former u.s. congressman and also the father of rumpole the senator who was behind the amendment initiative he believes that was continuing because they are profitable. well i think what's happening is that. the pro-war group or solidified in congress their leadership always goes along their neo conservatives and they take this more aggressive foreign policy and constitution of the libertarians we are
3:23 pm
a minority and the media is entirely on the side of the neoconservatives and they represent you know the military industries and there's always an angolan people make money off of war and sometimes they say well we'll have a little war we'll have a little cold war and this will help our profits and they don't intend it to go back further of us so often it gets out of control and actually the policy is totally out of control because here it is sixteen years in this ongoing wars over there and there's no no end in sight except we need to continue our efforts to wake up the american people so that that thirty six votes turns into sixty six votes and then we put pressure on the media the person to represent us and present the truth. has called a wave of how exposed threats in the capital in the russian cities telephone terrorism more than one hundred thousand people were affected

3:26 pm
a virus but of course there's also the theory that this is just a prankster intent on creating as much panic and disruption as possible now an investigation is under way to get to the bottom of this so then maybe we'll find out what's really the case. counter-terror experts believe that the perpetrators will be traced although it can be a lengthy process it doesn't fit into the. thinking more in terms of looking at the narrative and some of the analysis coming out from those security sources that this might be lead to terrorism if this. sort could. be definitely. the russian security agencies would that make this offer weeks in my ticket to but they would definitely. south korean president mean jane has ruled out the possibility
