although it's not clear whether or not trump actually read it. a letter was given to me by him you know and that letter was this very nice letter how would you like to see what was in that letter that you know you might go with how much how much how much it was a very interesting letter and i haven't seen the letter you know i purposely didn't know for eleven. i haven't opened i didn't open it in front of the director. well the letter was passed to trump by a former north korean intelligence chief who was part of the p.l.o. delegation in the u.s. talks between america and north korea are scheduled for the twelfth of june in singapore the meeting was earlier called off by trump jew to what he called open hostility here sir r.t.e. polyploid who is take. it looks like kim may have a copy after all probably possibly maybe in case you missed it is that a feel good

story of the summer. donald trump and came to light by bold on tenterhooks there are you listen rachel the new justin and selena are. just as attractive are you glad that these other two men with that fingers on the button as big date part of the june the twelfth but trump pulls it off saying that the french told him said that he'd heard from someone else that came with saying mean things about the us vice president well something like that but what was particularly annoying for came with it just the day before i want to return how desperate he works for me to stop the whole mountain that wouldn't be from what he said on the breaks it was actually true that. he done some hope a few days later saying i truly believe north korea has brilliant potential and will be a great economic and financial nation one day you'll know how to. get. there why do these two just get together top teasing us from the trunk of wants to

commit to getting rid of everything that looks smells wrong with me the only other one came to learn will be mindful of the fact that libby is loveable colonel gadhafi agreed to do just that but a few years later was dragged from the drain and sure so you can see the argument for keeping it cheeky little did to her and you know. that's a common donald give the boy a chance to grow up a mountain to be. totally. good idea in case you missed it trump and kim aren't going to meet the north korean leader says washington will be in the fire of a thousand star case you missed it and kim finally agreed to meet they've officially booked a romantic suite at single pole. raffles harry tell in case you missed it trying to have stormed out of a summit with the north korean leader it's reported he misunderstood the briefing

telling him he'd be meeting someone called kim anything apartheid's how while the singapore summit was still being considered kim jong un met with russia's foreign minister reacting to news of the meeting trump initially said he didn't like it but added he was willing to change his mind if something positive came from that kareena first experts told us the u.s. doesn't want to be sidelined in the peace process if you give this president a branding run like call it the b.p. the trump peace plan you're going to have a situation where this president's going to be excited because the legacy issue he could really use right now and he wants to do what no president in the u.s. has ever done before the u.s. wants to demonstrate leadership in this area and not be left on the sidelines so it's an opportunity for him and if he believes the other countries take the lead in the u.s. becomes the side player in peace then you lose that that is. doesn't

understand anything beyond the fact that this could be a good photo op and possibly a boon for his ratings the u.s. has never taken north korea very seriously i mean the idea of the greatest military power in the world sitting down with a country that they've already always considered impoverished and backward i think is and that's to many people in washington in the united states wants supremacy against china in the region and it wants to maintain its troops in korea as close to china as possible and that has really been a big factor in prolong the conflict in korea the message that kim jong un is standing you know he's meeting with lavrov he's meeting with huge and paying. signals to trump you know i have friends in the region and you're the one that is isolating yourself by pulling out these international agreements and so you know i'll be fine with or without you. the grounds of four cents

that's the amount a florida jury eventually awarded the family of a black man fatally shot by police officers he was killed in his garbage four years ago while officers were investigating a complaint about lloyd music to begin with the court awarded the family four dollars one for funeral expenses and a dollar for each of his three children but later the jury established the officer who killed the man was only one percent at fault so the compensation was reduced to just four cents afterwards it was established that the victim was intoxicated when officers arrived on the sum could end up being zero gregory hill jr was a father of three he was fatally shot three times through a door in twenty fourteen police claim he was holding a gun although it was apparently not loaded the family's lawyer says the court ruling out insult to injury. we were in shock as lawyers because i've never seen or

heard anything like this we're not supposed to be punished like that his fiance walked out of the courtroom when it happened you have to tell three children destiny ariana and gregory the third their pain and suffering their loss of a father is only worth a penny it's just a proposal for a story of law enforcement gone wrong that here you have a dead man laying there and police think he's barricaded in his listening to loud music that had the ford in it ok and that's what police came to see. to investigate and it's not even illegal it's it's something that police knock on your door and generally tell you to turn it down the family have launched a crowd funding campaign to raise money for the children and it's already received more than forty seven thousand dollars their lawyers say they will continue their battle for justice one hundred percent goes to the children in the rehabilitation

of their family home because it was also destroyed by tear gas we don't understand ninety nine percent and one percent in america your we have a second amendment you know some people love it some people hate it but you're legally allowed to possess a firearm and you're legally allowed to open the door with a firearm and we're going to take it all the way to the u.s. supreme court if we have to it's that important because it's a precedent of law enforcement if you're doing nothing illegal shouldn't be able to shoot you through your closed your closed garage door it's preposterous and use continues right after this.

but politicians do something to. put themselves on the lawn. to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president i'm sure more somehow want to be preached. to the right to be prosperous what with the full spectrum of all can people get. interested always in the waters of our. first six.

hello again spain's separatist region of catalonia is back in charge of its own affairs now after months of direct rule by madrid the new government will sworn in just hours after spain's new prime minister took over cotland leader kim torah used his first speech to volley to continue the breakaway regions push for secession from madrid the catalan comments revival follows seven months of federal control after last year's referendum which was deemed illegal by spain tour of places the austin carlists bustamante who fled the country on base wanted on charges of rebellion tour is appealing to the country's new prime minister petro sanchez to put cattle and independence back on the negotiating table one of the key figures in the temple on solidarity for independence coalition told r.t. dialogue must now take priority over calling for another referendum because i think

that now it's not the it's not the key issue to make another referendum the referendum it was done and more than two million people what's coming to go and we must not forget these results and new listening to me it's also possible maybe. a second stage. or a day on the way but not now i think that mr total must take consideration and must act many care negotiations will we look if they open the look we with government money from say they will thought they would propose a new. a new way. to maintain relations between. the people. here it says we. wanted you to i think that you missed that we. have the

support of the people. the syrian army house rotted the last pockets of terrorist side of the capital damascus civilians are heading back to the newly liberated cities people are coming to terms with their lives after the war with some still searching for loved ones who went missing during the conflict. he fought in the militia supporting this here we know there were twenty two soldiers in his assault and they wanted to attack me pro twenty second they group came here but they got ambushed and captured. i still terrorists called me from a czar's and told me they killed they sent me photos and took

a picture of this thing on may first sent me this picture and then this one this is me zahra's body. that's masers jacket they were captured all of a sudden from the ambush they shot him in the back here's one shot well here's the other. two young men able to grow looking for his body every day we come here every day i will find him we will. a law has been introduced in the german province of bavaria requiring crucifixes to be displayed at the entrances to public buildings here's our europe correspondent with more peter all over. clearly visible crosses are to go up in some public

buildings like courthouses police stations and city halls like this one here in bavaria it's also a new law regarding crucifixes came into effect on the first of june the plan comes courtesy of the ferry is a new president marcus soda and his reasoning is that this is supposed to reinforce bavarian identity in the face of large scale immigration given by and signal it is a signal of phil for surance and bavaria we want to state our western christian culture and that is why clearly we don't get rid of crosses but hang them up this is not an attack on others but only a cultural symbol which we especially appreciate in the various public opinion shows that almost sixty percent of bavarians actually support the move but when we spoke to people on the streets of nuremberg opinion was more finely balanced i don't think it's a good idea. because it has nothing to do with security the government is separate

then the church so why should we do the same i don't think it's a good idea it's correct because it's a tradition and why not i comment on the one hand we see people wanting to ban the headscarf on the other they're forcing people to shoulder across that seems to me. mr sisson i don't think are very an identity depends on process it is stronger in other ways with beer gardens and local traditions it's an elite nightgown that's going to use the cross spot of every day life for us but we respect every phrase not just christianity the bavarian president became the target of more than a few online jokes when he announced this idea however those who are charged with actually hanging crucifixes in public buildings all day are onside with the plan. this is not a defensive reaction but a positive reinforcement of our call. it does not hurt to point out where our roots

are this crosses a symbol not only for christians but for people living in bavaria. but critics say that this goes against germany's constitutional separation of church and state and say they want to change the law it's a totally wrong decision of the berrien government because it's a very in citizen you can be a muslim you can be a tool you can be non-religious you can be an atheist humanist for example and all these people shall now look to the cross and why instead we have a strong tradition arm of a separation of church and state there has to be clarified whether this mixing up. of a religious symbol with security or rooms of a secular state is really compatible with our berrien constitution there hasn't been any mad rush to hang crucifixes in buildings like the city hall in nuremberg

just behind me here the law didn't come with any deadline and is also widely expected to be challenged in germany's highest court it's some point in the future peter all of a r.t. of area. last friday mark international day for the protection of children and in all walks of life currents do whatever it takes to keep their youngster safe here's one mother doing just that in moscow. i'm a pessimist i'm i'm. good. at. it. and i was happy and i can confirm that mom and kids did safely get across the road after all sean thomas is here in thirty minutes time with more global and you stay with our take.

well you know the cars they were kind of adopted because we were called pirates for so long. i mean they're in the small ball of sticks in a hard pool of ships and it's. not something. the little self did big fish already ninety percent of the dot and it won't recover . yukon's fifteen scoops seventy five tons they do it several times a day with a big fleet oh you get an idea for an ocean which. we have to understand we could not stay still would just. be with miss the news deal going to the. i'm doing this because i want the for the future

world to the future can generations to have and enjoy the ocean how we have. so. many european comforts seven didn't come to believe that we shan't should get out of this the song sherman come to something that this student ok. let's. do this final decision on d.c. shoe. has to come from. these guys and we need you to. dream. who'll be the next to get the treatment that greece got from the troika the i.m.f. the e.c.b. the e.u. they gang up they destroy a country for profit it's a it's

a smash and grab and greece was destroyed at a referendum and then they didn't pay any attention to the referendum they didn't want the troika wrong and look what happened increase it turned it into a pit it turned into a shelter into garbage and now the same bankers are getting together because they need a like a shark always something to destroy to eat and consume so we were trying to figure out would italy be next or spain were the two likely candidates so i guess as we've been saying that for five years that this was coming and i guess italy will be the next meal for the.

welcome to redact it's night i'm john f. o'donnell. and fire really cap is off this week i'll let you guess why he's either a smuggling in affordable medication from canada be spraying round up into the lattes of monsanto executives or see he's on tour doing stand up. but don't worry we've still got a bridge in new bad as show over adapted stories from baird for you so let's do it first up our truth bomb natalie mcgill has discovered yet another twist the dimension of the prison industrial complex check it out. at some point you may have said or even heard a coworker say the phrase that's above my pay grade it's what you say when you're being asked to do something that's beyond your skill level and expertise. it's also

the official motto of the entire white house cabinet. unfortunately the people who work in our federal prisons as teachers just nurses and more don't have the luxury of adopting that same motto when asked to do things above their pay grade because i've spent a little prisons run low on guards nurses and cooks are filling in the federal bureau of prisons refers to this corner cutting practice as an augmentation because as we all know using a fancy term to describe something terrible takes the sting out of you know the way your job calls your layoff or reduction in force and how i call my own farts old factory expressions. one bureau of prisons nurse even told usa today we did a radio and set of keys and we don't know which keys fit which doors just the radio in a set of key. pieces clearly setting the civilian workers up for failure. or

at the very least making the world the least competent high school janitor. in an attempt to look less like a high school basketball coach who uses his entire bench when a star player comes down with the norovirus feel peace spokesman justin long. in the usa today when an insufficient number of correctional officers are available to cover an institution's critical custody post on any given shift institutions rely on overtime and the reassignment of other institutions staff including public health service officers who are all considered correctional workers to cover such posts and for nurses teachers and other staff who start their jobs at federal prisons they're considered a correctional worker after three weeks of basic correctional training yet actual correctional officers receive a year of probationary training

a chance to learn but end out of working in the housing units to give you an idea of how absurd it is for the b.o.p.'s to think three weeks of correctional training isn't enough though subban as an officer consider that it takes twenty one weeks on average according to the bureau of justice to become a police officer in america and even that is way too little given that this is how one officer with twenty seven years of experience responded to a utah nurse who was with him her rights to not let him draw her patient's blood. i mean. in several states like california it takes two times longer to become a professional hairdresser than a cop and shiela bob still ended up with this haircut. but federal prison clearly understaffed and the below p.

expecting to cut up to sixty thousand positions campaigns in the twenty eighteen budget would trump approve a one hundred six million dollar increase the b.o.p.'s budget. with that much money a senate report told the b.o.p.'s to scale back on augmentation and hire more staff . west virginia senator joe manchin even wrote a letter to be o.-p. director mark entsch requesting details information about feels he's planned to use additional money however as of april but the full sources confirm that the bureau is moving forward with its staffing cuts anyway. so you have the money to make the problem go away but you're not going to. ok either these people have never had a mistress before or they remember her and realize money doesn't always make your problems disappear or maybe it's because the bureau of prisons never really had any

plans to fill vacancies because just days after b.o.p.'s officials had a conference call about the expected thousands of cuts in federal prison staff out here and now with the memo from the b o p entitled increasing population levels in private contractors syllabi instead of hiring more correctional officers so we don't have to rely on unqualified teachers and nurses to keep watch this mellow suggests moving prisoners around to places where there is a profit motive to keep them in prison. even when it's twenty six thousand d.o.j. inspector general report found that compared to federal facilities the private facilities confiscated eight times as many contraband cell phones had higher rates of assaults and were placing inmates rights and needs at risk unfortunately we

think jeff sessions for this likelihood since he took time from his busy schedule of napping under his favorite lynching tree to roll back and obama era policy that would eventually end the use of federal private prison contracts. i mean. reversing the policy was the least sessions could do to thank trump for his current job given that out of the eleven private prisons and contract with the b o p naing are operated by private prison juggernauts core civic and geo group who gave two hundred fifty thousand dollars and four hundred seventy five thousand dollars to president tracks campaign and inauguration respectively and relied on teachers in particular to stand guard has led to you were prisoners received. ingenius during the twenty seven thousand fiscal year two thousand six hundred sixty seven federal inmates earned a ged down about sixty percent from the previous year the world's poor and accept

bender is already going to be hard enough they'll face a lack of jobs housing and family or friends who want to take them in or even be around them. but if we pull the support staff inside the prison that's supposed to keep them stable and help improve their lives in favor of corporate handouts for feeding the present industrial complex then we cripple them for life outside prison . like everything else in this administration this is taking a step backward. and after that particularly of progressive all factory expression i'll be taking steps backward as well. reporting from the department of justice natalie mcgill redacted tonight. wow. here's an idea let's drastically reduce mass incarceration by not having

a racist system that puts people in prison for nothing crimes and then teachers would have to double as guards just the thought. anyway next up a highly under-reported and shocking aspect of the tragic tale of libya here's naomi care of already with the raging controversy. there are still unanswered questions about why the u.s. and nato bombed libya back to the stone age and twenty eleven a trial unfolding in france might offer us clues the former french president at an angry as man in munchkin land in new go last sergeant posey is under arrest and facing charges for illegal campaign financing according to french media star cozy funded his two thousand and seven presidential campaign with fifty million dollars bills from could yes that gadhafi later and twenty eleven spearheaded

a campaign against with missiles from nato and the best way to return a favor i'd say maybe and edible arrangement would be fine you know the french mean business when they arrest a leader but you can't find the story anywhere in u.s. media except for the intercept in some of the online blurbs blurbs imagine of louis the sixteenth a blurb in american papers at the time before the arab spring in two thousand and eleven so our cozy or president bling bling as he was so nicknamed for his flashy spending was the best of friends with the kingdom breakdowns in two thousand and seven months after bling bling won the presidential election he invited to the obvious that of his iconic bedouin tent in front of him leaving a leg then some cozy trenches back on his old tent buddies and sarkozy became the

first head of state to recognize the posing transitional council as libya's butcher to make a man issuing a death sentence to take up. by the way how are we going to spell khadafi is it with a g. as a to the k. . with a q then the story of the fifty million euros started to come out gadhafi told french media that it's thanks to him he became president and so are cozy is mentally deficient that's not nice to call a politician we refer to them as. and in the french. i wouldn't say that he's mentally deficient but sarkozy did try to ban star closing blue dolls while touting him self as a champion of the free market the invisible hand can do no wrong. until it starts poking with needles shukri gonna was libya's oil now.
