vegas we spoke exclusively. to the clash. everything that we want to see the. clarity of vision complete tranquility. a very good evening to you all watching our international in a major breakthrough the senate has voted fifty in favor forty eight against to confirm supremes court nominee brett kavanaugh he's been accused of sexual misconduct during his college years by christine blasi for senators who've been deeply divided on the issue had been taking the floor since the early morning. when the history of the senate is written. this chapter will be
4:02 pm
a flashing warning light what. truly. kavanagh's confirmation is. for this. country i just. don't see that somebody. thinks that the president is a. very least you should expect a nominee. i do not believe cabinet has met the standard he put on the scale of justice always towards corporate interests i knew him as an honest and dedicated public servant i was proud to be the life. of this exceptionally. i do not see. i do not see that i see a partisan ideologues who will do backflips to rule in favor of large corporations

powerful. confirming. the supreme court. and undermine the court's legitimacy and continue to diminish the american people's trust in. protest is trying to stall the voting by shouting from the senate gallery and the chairman on to us for order at least a dozen times in the latest eruption of outside protests to swarmed on capitol hill right ahead of the crucial vote. hundreds of people holding signs condemning brett kavanaugh and chanting slogans decrying the nominee for the school to see people friday alone almost one hundred arrests were made. let's get some analysis now and cross live to scotty no hughes who saw the america's evening news hosts thanks for coming on scottie we got the
4:04 pm
result it was. as we expected the capital case has schools deep divisions along the way though between the senate is you surprised that the majority well fifty finally voted in favor well i'll be honest with you it's been a few weeks full of turmoil as quickly partisan lines became the dividing lines as what was expected what was an expected deal was in the last forty eight hours you have seen that large protest that happened in the senate building with the lebanese and others storming the area many of them getting arrested we have over one hundred that were arrested on thursday night now you've got hundreds that have been arrested today and then forwarding on to today where you saw a democrat switching over senator manchin and voting in favor of the confirmation as reverse to senator murkowski who originally voted against the confirmation later withdrawing her vote once there was sure that it was not going to make a difference so there has been a few surprises but overall in the end it is actually the republicans have been
4:05 pm
pretty solid from day one as well as the senate vote this plays out in a moment you say the court of public opinion has been quite a theatrical event do you think the week long investigation on top of that played into cardinals hands. well actually i think that we're saying that states like west virginia has by joe manchin probably came over and voted for his confirmation so this issue right here being taken off the table might actually hurt the republicans because they're not going to have people motivated to go to the polls for a supreme court justice which is a lot of motivation especially for those republicans that weren't necessarily part of the trump train going into twenty sixteen on the opposite side the democrats that's going to be their challenge they're now very angry obviously but they have four weeks that people keep people engage and say if you don't want to see the same type of issue happening over the next two years if you possibly might want to see impeachment proceedings start against president trump you need to show up in the polls and he need to make sure you show up in those states that will will flip
4:06 pm
possibly from red to blue as a bit to this from the democrats has been obvious to observe from abroad since president jim got into power real patootie to attack trump it's taken d.c. we're going to see the tensions escalate further to get tools the midterms will be more positive the campaigning. well in my humble opinion the last three weeks have done a lot of damage to americans and to what we do our pride in our optimism that we have in each other unfortunately time that you just have twenty four seventh's coverage of the negative over the positive that makes the country great it's not good for the people who live within that country so unfortunately i do believe that the holocaust hostility has ratcheted up i do believe that people feel like they are justified in their anger and their actions towards those that don't agree with them and so the next four weeks and i think it's going to be very very interesting to see how people are going to actually react right now with their frustrations or in their celebration as right now as as my phone is blowing up the g.o.p.

is not taking. did they just win a short term battle but could potentially lose the long term war that the time will only be the way to. the result is in just a few moments ago and has been voted in successfully bringing his analysis scotti no hughes evening news host for all to america thank you very much scottie. on to other news now not the rule of law but the law of the strongest it was the dumbing assessment of french national security by the country's outgoing interior minister before his resignation earlier this week for some of the measures that are being table to improve the situation they've been slammed by france's police force on the shalit dubin ski has the story. aspirant says interior minister resigned this week has shown a spotlight on the state of the country's security and it was stark. i went to all these neighborhoods the situation there is very bad it's time to

4:09 pm
every day but forces say they're being stretched too thin and have reached a breaking point they've worked on most twenty two million hours in overtime without any extra pay but m.p.'s from my own party have a simple solution to the problem private security forces are a component which we must know take into account everyone recognizes that there are no key partner there report suggests guards in places like supermarkets and shops should essentially become another arm of the security services it suggests that they could all be equipped with tasers have the right to carry concealed weapons and even get a distinct uniform police unions off furious to give its privatizing security there's a real problem with the risk of private security agents being more the risk to our citizens than an advantage right now few private security agents can carry
4:10 pm
firearms but that could also change up to three thousand could be granted the right to carry guns and rifles a situation which could cause a small revolution in the homeland security again making police unions uneasy the leaders a real risk with these agents not having enough training having a weapon in your hand means the possibility of taking your life is out of the question and he says the changes could also lead to a clear divide between the protection of vailable to those who can afford it and those who can't. foresee all fringe people have an equal right to security we want the public service missions to effectively protect people from the privatization of security because if it's privatized security will depend on the purchasing power of the fringe to defend themselves and protect themselves. also the officers are
