with you at r.t. in moscow it's now eleven am friday here thanks for joining us for your global update this hour a first for you r.t. is facing unprecedented pressure in the united states according to the channel's editor in chief she believes two kone of measures are being used to target not just the network's employees but also people linked to us the campaign against artie's being based on claims that are channel influenced the twenty sixteen presidential election that will vote no concrete evidence has ever been given high ranking officials in washington continue to make allegations the r.t.s. on twitter were almost uniformly anti clinton and those i think you look at them and you have to conclude no there was a clear design in these ads so that's one congressman's opinion yet on the same day the senate intelligence committee probing alleged russian meddling the complete opposite there is no way that you can look at that and say that that was to help the right side of the ideological short and. not the left or

vice versa or they were indiscriminate it seems that the overall theme of the russian. involvement in the u.s. looking for create chaos at every level all of this is just the. segment of the russians did it saga where now all attention seems to have shifted to our channel and its social media ads well it's no secret that our t.v. does advertise on twitter and other platforms just like most other media outlets the little blue bird sing a song of russian meddling last week and a report the disclosed how much we spend on ads the sum was two hundred seventy five thousand dollars and it's funny to consider is that being able to make a sufficient influence on the election when all the candidates spend about one billion dollars to make it look as if we've done something obscure shady or semi-legal of course i don't nonsense tutor's contacted us with their proposal to florida election are you sure it is a presentation of the adverts so that is how much it would cost and we greet

recently google became the latest internet giant to jump on the bandwagon when it yanked us from its premium ad service in the us without any warning whatsoever now that move is unlikely to have an adverse effect on our channels reach as we are already the most feared news network on you tube and fact last month we hit the milestone of over five billion views nevertheless this ban only adds to the mounting pressure on the channel until recently no active measures except those terms getting our reputation have been taken against last specifically no where else have we average experience a kind of high shared experience. to the point it's virtually forced to contrary is absolutely insane with the idea that our two years out there they want to condemn it as somehow russian propaganda but the fact of the matter is whether you love your tea or hate the idea that the u.s. government can tell you what you can watch and can't watch the idea that there's

a government censor or something like google in bed with the government telling you what you and or can't watch this is like something out in one thousand nine hundred four what it comes down to is of all of these attacks against the russian media continue moscow has announced that equivalent measures may be taken against american media in russia meet that i see the russian foreign ministry can take countermeasures against journalists representing media outlets of countries that have restrictions on russian journalists. meanwhile president trump who sees the russian witch hunt as a hoax has suggested that his government take a look a little closer to home saying that american media is full of the ever present fake news donald trump is of course all too familiar with the battle against fake news both the president and his administration say they've been long term targets of false reporting the latest victim seems to be the secretary of state terrorists and tried to quit but was talked out of it by allies and even vice president mike pence

who had to give to us in what's described as a pep talk the vice president has never had to persuade me to remind the secretary of state because i have never considered leaving this post and the secretary called the president a moron and it was wrong of all those for he said it loudly enough for you or you were over. for the. words i'm just i'm not going to deal with petty stuff like that i mean this is this is what i don't understand about washington again you know i'm not from this place but the places i come from we don't deal with that kind of petty nonsense and it is intended didn't know nothing but divide people following to listen for a bottle of the story president trump accused n.b.c. of low standards in its reporting and said it should make a public apology. c.n.n. has also been in the firing line over some of its reporting earlier this year it had to retract a story claiming congress was investigating ties between a trump aide and the russian investment fund and when that aides threatened the

network with a one hundred million dollar lawsuit an apology was issued three journalists resigned some c.n.n. employees were also caught on camera this was back in june claiming that the channel runs alleged russian meddling stories only to boost ratings but what he thinks going to happen this week with the rest of. the things that the people of the book really. the point c.n.n. constantly in. russia those from the. business ratings the president is probably right there. were. those who go. over to prove we talk to the director of grassroots political consulting daniel for archie who chairs president trump's concern over the state of america's media you have about five corporations that control or entire media apparatus people are profiting off of them and it's completely controlled and at the same time you have congress investigating and seeking regulation on free media any alternative news

media coming from international sources like this channel to bloggers social media now facebook having to go troll through with physical people so many different news stories that their focus is on shouting voices of anything that's not mainstream media and it was an interesting tweet from president trump. division in spain continues to widen as pro unity and pro independence rallies have been held across the country imposing protests follow catalonia an announcement that it will declare its independence next week meanwhile spain's defense ministry is giving additional aid to the police and the civil guard which is being deployed to the region and madrid's latest move to ramp up its forces has been getting a lot of attention. approximately twenty trucks with beds kitchens and showers are being sent out to the riot police who are in catalonia but some media speculating that spain's effectively sending its army in to get a handle on the situation spanish authorities of course are already feeling the

heat following the violent crackdown on the day of the catalan referendum which left more than eight hundred injured last sunday and woodridge extra support for its forces in catalonia comes after five hundred officers across the region were addicted from premises that i was to see a chicken has been following developments in the catalan capital we are indeed in the small town of sun we do love for god which is about a half hour away from barcelona where locals have come out onto the streets and opposing protests this particular group here was a peaceful march walking through the streets hundreds of people who have come out to speak against the police brutality that has been at the forefront surrounding the events of the of tobar first referendum on castle on independence as you can see the atmosphere is quite tense as the protesters here the ones who are against the police brutality and for the independence are being confronted by another group of protest over there you can see them there so police between these two groups to

avoid any kind of trouble and these two groups have come out onto the streets to really as yet another example of how high the division has been here during these last several days surrounding the referendum. thanks. to the violent police crackdown on catalans on the day of the referendum is often at the forefront in some boy deliberate got near barcelona equipment and supplies sent by madrid to a military base have been met with resistance the move is seen as preparation for more trouble to come it was inevitable after what happened on the first of october . we can't bear to be beaten to a elderly people and our children to be treated badly lost almost a political we don't. and security forces here they're preparing everything to bring in repressive forces we saw how they behaved on the first of october we don't want either the civil guard or the national police.

i was. the spanish national guard has been vilified since over eight hundred people were injured on polling day i. was. in towns around catalonia moved also demonstrated against the police being there but proved unity supporters were against independence and the police about it within the law not only going to police violence they did what they had to to restore law and order reporting from catalonia and associate churkin or for r.t. meanwhile arriving officers were given a jubilant welcome by pro unity supporters in parts of catalonia and the two different forces in spain local and national shook hands and hugged each other after standing against each other less than a week ago on referendum day. six

suspect has been arrested in an investigation into a failed bombing in an upmarket paris neighborhood an explosive device was found on saturday and at that point five suspects were arrested the homemade bomb consisted of four gas canisters which were wired to detonate by mobile phone the explosives were found by a local resident it comes as a new anti terror laws being passed through the french parliament it's expected to be adopted later this month. he takes a closer look at the new legislation science has been under a state. agency for almost two years and dumped is about to end the catch is that essentially it becomes permanent with many of these emergency powers being signed

into law under the new already approved by the lower house of the french parliament the police will have moved no is just such close to carry out stop and search operations so why a top post and e-mail communications it will also allow the closure of places of worship suspected of inciting terrorism and placing alleged jihadi sympathizers i mean to house rats now the recent poll in france suggested that fifty seven percent of people are in favor of the law even if sixty two percent think it will be to use that freedoms. i think this will become dangerous in the long run and why be beneficial today they say it's against terrorists tomorrow against ecological protestors and nancy globalists the day after tomorrow it will be against journalists they say prison doors books. and so i think this limits freedom

because i believe the whole program is useless human rights activists say it's so gross violation of privacy even emmanuel mock or him so you've admitted that these measures do not to war against terrorism so why are they passing them maybe the regime is getting weak maybe they are anticipating social unrest maybe they just want to chase around public opinion and tell them we are doing something but what we need is from the french government to do the work thing when they're working would be to force us to question why do these terrorist attacks happen and second why do they keep happening in montreal my whole pledge to end this state of emergency by november and peace is key to him keeping about comics and while this. no doubt that these will be the powers of the police it's unclear if it will be on any more safety despite the

sacrifice of liberty somebody's been skiing. it's meanwhile a new anti terror measures getting underway at one of the world's most visited tourist attractions the eiffel tower in paris will be secured at ground level by a bullet proof glass wall the counter terror measure was approved back in february after a wave of attacks both in france and across europe. scramble for seats in the german election now

a scramble for parties not to sit next to parliament's newest members lawmakers in berlin and not only at odds over policies they can agree on a seating plan in the bundestag either a most m.p.'s are trying to avoid being placed near the anti migrant alternative for germany party.

well understood below the given position being given. this is all tea on the way claims of insider trading among u.s. congress members and progress in repelling from its last stronghold in syria it's all that. in case you're new to the game this is how. the economy is built around. preparations from washington to washington the media the media. and voters elected

a businessman to run this country business. you must it's not business as usual it's business like it's never been done before. the war was still you on the idea that dropping bombs brings peace to the chicken hawks forcing you to fight the battles that will. produce talk spread a tell you that every gossip and public profiles of the most important. tell you are not cool enough to buy their products. all the hawks that we along with all the walking. back donald trump's made an ominous sounding statement to journalists following a meeting with top u.s. military officials at the white house he suggested the talks on thursday during which north korea and iran were discussed well a preview to

a major event but then declined to comment further but he. still wouldn't do. it discussion with his military chiefs trump criticized iran for not following the nuclear deal to slash its stockpile we must not allow a red to attain to obtain nuclear weapons the iranian regime supports terrorism and exports violence bloodshed and chaos across the middle east that is why we must put an end to iran's continued aggression and nuclear ambitions they have not lived up to the spirit of their agreement. however iran had previously been fulfilling the deal brokered by former us president barack obama's administration township's more than a dozen tons of enriched uranium to russia and close thousands of specified nuclear

facilities including the removal of a reactor u.s. defense secretary james mattis stressed that washington won't pull out of the deal if iran continues to meet the requirements if we can confirm that iran is living by the agreement if we can determine that this is in our best interest then clearly we should stay with it so many part of the wars that we do is on administration i do use the that i was speaking with is the us congress which is being on record is we don't require doctors just advise actions against iran and he would sell. this crap if there is a kind of sense of. community in a night as well as an international family. and if this graph in the iran resumes would look like it is that was where were we . and this requires

a choice. the syrian army is inching closer to seizing islamic states last stronghold in dancehall province itself the government forces made a decisive advance towards the town of my again the russian air force has also been targeting terrorist positions inside the town. suffered another major blow elsewhere in the country as syrian forces backed by russian planes have now completely liberated the eastern province of hama syrian army officers though showed me the horrifying legacy left behind by the jihadists.

terrorists have special places for torturing prisoners. for police offices this is one of the prisons which they use with sourcing people who didn't want to follow their ideology. didn't expect it from the happening from the real. stronghold in the area which was heavily guarded fourth of the death. and another terror group in syria has been dealt a series of setbacks according to russian defense ministry with the jihadists leadership eliminated in an asteroid the russian military received intelligence of a high ranking al masri meeting on october the third but the exact time and location confirm through numerous channels russian forces then conducted an air raid killing dozens of terrorist fighters including twelve commanders and leaving the main leader of al those are in a critical condition when i guess they have reports from syria nusra front jihad thrown into confusion apparent he survive in field commanders called for an

emergency meeting to decide on how to carry on what to do in the future organize so to speak fortunately for them russian military intelligence of that meeting also once confirmed and verified the location the date and the time. a suit thirty for bomb a new out to carry out an ashtray to what we've heard from the russian ministry of defense another seven field commanders were killed as well as forty nine other bodyguards and jihad ists but these two airstrikes have dealt nusra front a tremendous blow it is by all reports the biggest and the strongest rebel faction with the most fighters the best training and the best weapons but compounding the damage done to them there the russians have also learned of the front biggest underground ammo dump weapons store holding allegedly more than

a thousand tons of various arms and munitions with the course of several days that the russians studied the movement of trucks patrols around the location which they didn't yet know. on the ground surveillance recon they finally learned its exact coordinates finally the go ahead for an ashtray was given and the jets carried to special bunker buster bomb it penetrated its targets and the fire apparently raged for hours and alice signifying that the store had been hit again another huge blow to al qaeda in syria. as turmoil inside the u.s. congress is judicial trial over illegal insider trading previously the law didn't affect congress members we carried out our own investigation is american. insider trading using confidential information on companies in the stock market is

a criminal offense and could result in jail time however the law doesn't apply to everyone most congressional staff members get away with it scot free but the question is is this legal while a few years ago the stop trading on congressional knowledge act or stock was fashioned to cry. insider trading and prevent members of congress from trading stocks based on nonpublic information gathered on capitol hill the stock act makes it clear that if members of congress used. from asia to gain an unfair advantage in the market they are breaking the law. however about a year later the bill was amended allowing top federal employees to hide their financial dealings from the public now the new change didn't apply to members of congress but nothing was said about their aides or staff members comfortably

leaving them in a gray area allowing them to trade stocks freely without obstruction after going into the legislative resource center in the cannon office building the only place where you can actually go and research this information we've found that diane do you hers who's the deputy chief of staff to nancy pelosi disclosed her purchase of stock in pharmaceutical companies right before a medical research bill was passed in congress. as for david hoppe who's the chief of staff to paul ryan he and his wife purchased and sold shares in energy and former suitable companies while he worked for ryan and also before congress passed bills benefiting the company's trade. the people in congress should be no better than the ordinary americans and it's a privilege to invest in the stock market if they want to have investment in our

american stock market they don't have to pick individual companies they can buy indices so i think it's a gross miscarriage of justice the rules are written up exempt these aids from any kind of penalty so they believe that there are you know entirely within their rights doing this kind of stuff and let's keep the pressure up to get change to work for the vast majority of this country instead of just for the connected elite class a former j.p. morgan investment banker is now serving a three year term for insider trading having been convicted earlier this year the judge called his actions outrageous choosing personal convenience over ethical obligations but one only has to wonder where's the outrage in the court cases when congressional staff members are guilty of the very same crime. samir khan r. t. washington d.c. oh that's the news for now if you want to feedback look us up on facebook and twitter i'll be back a just a half an hour to update you again on the international.

most people think just stand out in this business you need to be the first one on top of the story or the person with the loudest voice of the biggest raid in truth to stand the news business you just the dance the right questions and the right answers. questions.

in the us a child can choose a course in school with a total fizzes as teachers we don't. recruit will says to you if the president is interested in go on in the military but we don't recruit ourselves. the pentagon is fun to go program to boost interest in the military among teenagers your chance to step up to an apollo so that comfortable with yourself. brings you out of your shell you can't go wrong with the military it's a great stepping stone for whatever career you want to do but some veterans are willing to take children a little more they ask me call of duty is a very popular first year video game. it's play and that's because like call of duty to turn off call of duty oh yeah well you can't turn off work and lot of these kids just don't hear. the darker side does the pentagon allow them to be told or does it just need more recruits.
