minister is demanding equal respect from the european union to reason may give a fiery statement earlier this friday after breck's of plan was slapped down by e.u. leaders at a summit in austria anything which fails to respect the referendum or which effectively divides our country into would be a bad deal and i have always said no deal is better than a bad deal throughout this process i have treated the e.u. with nothing but respect. the u.k. expects the same a lot of people saying that the reason may sort of channeling the iron lady here we got her in her strictest incarnation really she said that the talks of the e.u. had reached a stalemate london and brussels are at loggerheads and the ball is now in the e.u. as court take a listen at this late stage in the negotiations it is not acceptable to simply reject the other side's proposals without
4:01 pm
a detailed explanation and counterproposals so there she is in maximum combat mode and what she's saying to brussels is she wants to see counterproposals coming from the e.u. that they can't just scrap all her ideas without trying to reach some sort of compromise on the two major stumbling blocks in these talks that have plagued the negotiations throughout which is the issue of the irish border and the way the future trading relationship will look between the u.k. and brussels and as long as those issues aren't resolved to resume a says the u.k. is going to continue to prepare for a no deal scenario which after this statement i have to say feels like a much more realistic prospect this is a pretty low point in relations between the u.k. and the rest of the e.u. to resume a failed to secure any approval and to convince the
4:02 pm
e.u. leaders of the merits of the checkers deal in salzburg yesterday she came back to london empty handed and the president of the european council donald terse really wasn't impressed with what she had to offer and he made that quite clear take a listen to soldiers to train work for the moment corporation. must be clear that some issues. we're not. ready to compromise and. first of all this is. for fundamental freedoms. and. single market and this is why we. remain skeptical and critical is done still despite the chicas proposals skeptical and critical and those poor's israelis say it's all they really
4:03 pm
are at loggerheads and donald tusk didn't stop there he used instagram as well to have a dig at to resume a he posted a photo on his account of afternoon tea and cakes with to reason made in the photo and he commented no cherries kind of reinforcing that mantra that they've had all along which is that the u.k. can't have its cake and eat it too and just appears to be taking on i think the role of a bit of a bad cop in this situation talking about all the negative points the president of the european commission however. he appeared a little bit more philosophical in his approach to commissioners prepared indeed to all the elements of the consequences of the new deal which could be entirely to buy a new deal so don't worry be happy don't go well that is not the mood in london i don't think actually there is an increasing sense of nervousness off to that statement that the reason may may and to illustrate that while she was talking it
4:04 pm
was quite a short statement the pound sterling fell significantly against the euro to a an all year low you can actually see it for ling while she was giving that statement in downing street and so we've reached this standoff stage is quite a critical moment now and what to resume a appears to be saying is that either brussels blinks and stops playing hardball or london is crashing out of the club in less than six months time or during thursday's e.u. summit the french president warned that leaving the e.u. will come at a price and incur the wrath of brick city is by branding them liars. ok you know the breaks it teaches us something and i completely respect british sovereignty when i say that but it showed that those who say that we can easily live without a europe that everything is going to be all right and that is going to bring a lot of money there are liars monsieur mccrone is not only out of order he's
4:05 pm
completely wrong the e.u. is doing their classic case of trying to bully the u.k. in a variety of ways into taking a different position it is a well known british political truism that when you start insulting your opponents you've already lost the argument he was undignified malevolent not only in the way that he suggested that people like myself who campaigned for bret's it were liars but also the way that he seemed to join in with donald sachs joke to disgrace fully embarrassed to reason may for me this shows that they are both on dignified in their office clearly unable to comprehend that there are people in other parts of the world that believe in democracy in a different way that they do and sadly also shows the fact that in his own country they don't like the way that he is leading because the opinion poll shows that he is dropping week by week. china says the united states will bear the consequences
4:06 pm
if it doesn't cancel its new sanctions against its military is because beijing's announced it buying russian military hardware more details from a course done off. to analyze what has said we have to see we have to look at what washington's doing and essentially it's playing a double game targeting russia mostly with its new round of sanctions but also launching a blow that is well which intention is to damage beijing everything revolves around the russia's weapons russia's heavy weapons like the su thirty five fighter jet and the earth's four hundred surface to air resistance to increase its military cooperation with russia and possibly a very important war. missile systems from russia. president trump has delayed his own order to declassify documents related to the ongoing russia collusion probe he wants the justice department or the promoter first with the details of his caliber open. this delay comes in apparently he's
4:07 pm
waiting for the department of justice to review the documents before they are made available to the public now the sections that are in question relate specifically to the pfizer spying on carter page carter page as a former foreign policy adviser to donald trump now this is quite a u.-turn from donald trump when he initially spoke up he gave a very strong statement saying that he was going to make the documents from the probe very public that he had this authority as president we want transparency what i want is i want total krantz parents that this is a witch hunt. republicans are seeing it that democrats know it's a witch on to but they don't want to admit it because it's not good politics for them but it's a terrible witch hunt and it turned our country and i want transparency and so does everybody else we should open it up for people to see now donald trump mentioned the democrats and trump was certainly under
4:08 pm
a huge amount of pressure from the democratic party many democratic leaders were strongly opposed to donald trump making public documents related to the bob muller investigation now we had adam schiff who is a high ranking member of the house select committee on intelligence he went as far as to call this abuse of power to say that donald trump was acting completely inappropriate lee and harming the ability of the justice department to do its work now interestingly tensions are riding high in washington d.c. in relation to this probe into allegations that trump colluded with russia bob woodward a popular investigative journalist who wrote two books that were very popular in relation to the trumpet ministration he was being interviewed recently and in his radio interview he stated that in his two years and his two years of investigative work at no point did he find anything showing that donald trump had colluded with russia did you bob woodward hear anything in your research in your interviews that
4:09 pm
sounded. espionage or collusion i did and of course i looked for it look for it hard now despite tom's announcement on monday that these documents would be made public it appears that that decision is on the whole the department of justice is now reviewing the documents the bob muller investigation continues with many people wondering what will come next and what exactly is the truth. british tabloid newspaper the sun has retracted the tale of a kremlin assassination plot from a to absurd alleging that putin was like to kill a russian model in the intercity of souls bring on a suit check the reports from london tabloids here in the u.k. try to capture the hearts and minds of their readers by going with the potentially what could have been an explosive bombshell story jumping on the bandwagon of the souls very saga however that didn't go as planned and that story had to be retracted and deleted from their website citing legal reasons it featured
4:10 pm
a blonde with russian roots who was not too offensive to the eye who has an instagram page filled with pictures of her in bikini's who was claiming that just minutes away from the restaurant that sergei script pollen his daughter yulia had been visiting in another italian restaurant she and her husband she claims were poisoned by vladimir putin who was going after them and wanted her killed and that story of course turned out to be something that was on the front page of the sun as well as several other tabloids and is now being treated as a hoax and this is what the son had to say on this like any news paper we were keen to talk to those at the center of the incident and in this case chose to give mr shapiro the opportunity to share with the public her version of events that we had to model share her story however indeed the police are now investigating the main inquiry looking into this as
4:11 pm
a hoax and they have asked that. media to not speculate on this whole case and it has to be said that there are also reports now going around at the restaurant where all the commotion unraveled on sunday night with the understanding that a major incident could in fact be in place that restaurant is now saying they're going to sue this couple if it turns out to be true that this was a hoax amidst reports that the husband of this model had at one point been reported to be a convicted criminal and also to be somebody who had once hoaxed or pranks prince charles himself. a father in germany is appealing to the authorities to relaunch the investigation into his son's death almost a year ago marcus hempel died after a fight involving for refugees now in this security video marcus who's seen here in black and his friend has shown with the group it was late to judge to have been self-defense on the part of the migrants but his father claims the video shows quite the opposite peter all of us been speaking to him. carson hempel son marcus
4:12 pm
was killed last year here in vicksburg after an altercation with migrants when he's spoken out about his grievances and demonstrations he found himself labeled a nazi. as they came forward on stage i politely asked the audience to show a little respect one so i could tell the story of my son right in front of me there was a group of asylum seekers with the coordinator who was showing them how to hold close to result and what slogans to show them and imagine how i felt as a father when you see syrian asylum seekers who came from the same country as the person who killed my son and they called me a nazi it was insane believe all of government money that comes from my taxes every month to pay for people like that. his son is also being painted as a white nationalist by some media outlets that's none in germany people are labeled a left or right and this is the biggest mistake there is if you will the
4:13 pm
overwhelming majority of people are centrist in their political ideals because they are not members of any party only one is their voice to be heard obviously it is their right to demonstrate peacefully on the street i criticize equally the people who do hitler salads were follow other insane agendas and public events it simply doesn't belong here. carlson has big problems with the discrepancies in the versions of events prosecutors ultimately decided that the syrian man marketed in self-defense your fifth of all i believe the way the story was presented was planned from the beginning imagine that in a city with so many tourists suddenly news comes out that a young german has been killed by four syrian asylum seekers from my point of view they wanted to keep it quite the incident was caught in quite explicit detail on c.c.t.v. and mr hempel insists that this shows a different scene than the want to trade in legal documents showing here take a look here this boy and my son has already been knocked out is that self-defense
4:14 pm
is that self defense. the police talk about multiple hits but the state prosecutor says there was only a single hit the doesn't match either the state prosecutors in germany can't count or they're lying in this uming that they all have a higher education i would say that they are lying on the twenty ninth of september a memorial service will be held to mark the one year anniversary of the hempel family insists that they have not received justice for the killing of their son peter all over r.t. rittenberg. one palestinians being killed and at least one hundred more wounded in friday's mass protests on the gaza israel border those figures are from the girl's health ministry the protests are part of a so-called moderate turn which has been taking place every friday since march israel's deployed additional soldiers and informed that tensions could escalate across the weekend. augustine's are protesting for the twenty sixth friday.

4:16 pm
the new york times has published a mom of special report describing russia's alleged interference of the twenty sixteen u.s. presidential election out of the ten thousand words in the article the word alleged is used only twice with the story instead apparently portraying many unproven accusations as fact jacqueline bouvier has been thumbing through the report. a way to unravel the russia story so far the new york times special report into the saga looks impressive masses of subsections fancy photo shopping and multiple timelines and they all lead back to a kremlin conspiracy to get its man in the white house as mr trump emerged in spring twenty sixteen as the improbable favorite for the republican nomination the russian operation accelerated on three fronts the hacking and leaking of democratic documents massive fraud on facebook and twitter and outreach to trump campaign associates it's two thousand and sixteen and anonymous banners hung from
4:17 pm
a bridge are the suspected work of moscow the link russian bought sharing images online this is russia's way of bragging to the world but donald trump was their man but what seems strange here is that a sincere conclusion of the unraveling continues the line blurs between accusations and hard fact here we have the indictment of those quizzed in the mall or investigation that same den moscow march the fifteenth a veteran hacker named even your macaw of a russian military intelligence officer working for secret outfits called unit two six one six five began probing the computer network of the democrats going to school committee hitting nine states in three weeks and some of twenty fourteen and a book of trover and alexandra kirk all over was supposed to gather intelligence to help the mimic american some facebook and twitter the evidence is all their names dates and motives again all from indictments now i'm sure the new york times isn't willing to accept miller's word as gospel but to the right. this is what. we're
4:19 pm
hello and welcome to cross talk where all things are considered i'm peter lavelle in the age of trump political gridlock has been taken to the next level there's a lot at stake a supreme court seat and presidential prerogatives in the end it's all about the rule of law and equal application of the law we are gazing into the abyss with compromise unlikely. political gridlock i'm joined by my guest lionel in new york he's a legal analyst a news decoder and lionel media dot com in las vegas we have jen kearns she's a g.o.p. strategist and contributor to the hill and in austin we cross to don de bar he's an anti-war activist and a host of a daily radio program are across hospitals in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i always appreciated jan let me go to you first in las vegas
4:20 pm
you're there you got up early as for this program and it's much appreciated and looking at the calvin confirmation process ironically for a seat on the highest court of the land were justice is made it out this is been a mockery of justice i'm not going to tiptoe around like everybody else i think this is a mockery it's a disgrace and it's purely political and i've been. saying on this program with the donald trump that we have the left destroying institutions and credibility in institutions so you've got my take on very interested in yours go ahead well i would agree with you peter and not only have they made a mockery of the justice system i think we're in turn into very dangerous waters here i can speak as the woman on the panel i find in particular the weaponization of sexual assault allegations to be turned into political weapons to be a very dangerous territory i think it's offensive to women in particular and i think
4:21 pm
it's offensive to anyone who actually was sexually assaulted we don't know yet if this particular accuser if her account which she doesn't remember much about it. doesn't remember let's point out how she actually got to the party that night some nearly forty years ago doesn't remember whose house it was yet she she certain that it was judge kavanagh that was in the room with her so i think there are a lot of questions about this but i think that the big question here really is are we in these new unchartered waters and here's how i know if it walks like a duck and talks like a deck it probably is a deck i think this is a political hit job how do we know i've seen this twice before with my own eyes we saw this in the royal more case in the alabama senate race we saw gloria all read come out and say there was this year book inscription that they were certain was judge roy moore from some forty years ago again very similar circumstance will it
