the founder of the french public journal to go on and just stop complaining this is what he said because i think he's delivering some of his general shoulder told me you can speak freely the only thing we don't have the right to do is complain because you would be different if everyone did the same what is clear is that the people who come out to the streets here in paris and of course france readily and happy with the my presidency and they want to do everything to ensure that their voices are heard will lose voices be heard well it's not sure that the protests that have large michael's presidency over the last seventeen months or so he doesn't seem to have taken any new just a new changed course he says he is carrying out the manifesto that he was elected

on but the people here say they will just stop there to change course immediately challenged you to speak monti. left wing anti trump activists have caused the turmoil in central portland in the u.s. state of oregon after they blocked traffic and attacked cars trying to get through arteries killam up in the commons. things got rowdy in downtown portland now it was in the aftermath of a vigil for an african-american man who had been killed by police officers now the vigil itself was peaceful but afterwards protesters poured into the streets and things got intense people described the scene as chaos random people in cars driving by were harassed by the protesters let's take a look at some of the video that came out of the incident in downtown portland.

ted cruz the senator from texas was simply having dinner with his wife he was in a restaurant and soon he was surrounded by left wing activists who are furious about the the situation regarding brett kavanaugh i controversial supreme court justice who has just confirmed now of the protesters interrupted him this took place in september and after the incident took place there was actually a threatening tweet that was made on social media let's take a look at what happened to ted cruz and his wife as they were just trying to enjoy their dinner at a washington d.c. restaurant. candace owens she's an activist with the conservative organization known as turning point usa she was confronted by protesters after she was simply trying to have breakfast in her hotel the protesters were confronting her and did not approve of

some of the statements that she had made on social media this is what went down when candace owens was just trying to enjoy her everyday life. there's. seems to be an extreme polarization in the country between those who support donald trump and those who oppose him and it seems that this division is being asked a late it was some taking it well beyond arguments and to physical confrontations former texas republican official john griffin believes there's a growing mob mentality fueled by significant partisan divide. this is a mob rule mentality and this is what has been encouraged by democrat leaders and it's certainly not consistent with the democratic process the democrats have ceased being able to defend their own ideas in fact many of them don't know what

those ideas are they change from minute to minute from second to second depending on whatever women or sense of emotional outrage they feel and this is stoked and fanned by people who know better in washington and it's very dangerous there are people like me and others who are engaging in community a form of community pushback with forums and with models of civil dialogue and that is a trend i would like to see encouraged modeling what civil discourse looks like again for the younger generations i don't care have a controversy old a subjective term someone's views may be they're a u.s. senator they should be given at least their space. turkish investigators were granted permission to search at the saudi consulate in istanbul on tuesday as outrage grows over the suspected murder of

a journalist there last week of twenty seventeen and she leaves at a very inopportune time just as disagreements are brewing between trump and other world leaders and this was made obvious at this year's u.n. general assembly when world leaders laughed at trump during his speech and even then haley tried to defend him in less than two years my administration has accomplished more than almost any administration in the history of our country. america hears so true. i didn't expect that reaction but that's. when he said that they love how honest he is and it's not to follow magic and they find it funny i mean when he goes and he is very truthful they kind of are taken back by it now for something to think about on monday

a government watchdog called for an investigation into whether or not nikki haley violated federal ethics regulations by accepting free private flights this was acknowledged by nikki haley in her twenty seventeen public financial disclosures as saying that she was friends with the c.e.o.'s of those private jet companies that's what everyone's talking about so it looks like she'll be serving as u.n. ambassador until the end of this year so we'll just have to see who replaces her in this highly coveted position the syrian government has made an offer of amnesty to military deservers we'll have that story and much more after a short break if this is awkward. what politicians do something to. put themselves on the line they get accepted or

rejected. so when you want to be president. or some want to be preached. to the right to be pro-choice this is what the three of them all can't be good. i'm interested always in the why is it the how. they should. seem wrong. just don't call. me. to shape out of disdain become educated and engage me equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart. just to look for common ground.

and walk about zante international the syrian president has made an amnesty offer to desert hers in the country amid fears of a prison term for dodging military service the syrian reconciliation ministry says expects tens of thousands it to accept the amnesty russia's foreign minister called it a positive move. in the privilege you know this is a step towards national reconciliation creating acceptable conditions for refugees who want to come back to syria and internally displaced citizens we actively encourage this commitment by the syrian leadership. well the syrian war is now in its eighth year president assad's forces have retaken most of the country with italy province in the north being the only major rebel stronghold left roughly six million people have fled the country and two thousand and eleven the director of

a think tank focusing on syria and the middle east told us that the offer of amnesty is a step in the right direction. the circles of the refugees for example in neighboring countries. have been actually asking and demanding with the president. it came out today has deserved this from the army. but still it's a very good step in the right direction to. give confidence to those refugees who are looking for a way to go back to syria having to deal with all sorts of legal. or you know with the fear of somebody throwing the book i think in the. syrian state is using the tools at its disposal to make headway in terms of the. progress and the. investigative journalism group says

it has identified the second suspect in the poisoning of a former russian spy and his daughter and he's honest as you're going to was at a news conference they held in london earlier and breaks down the latest allegations which have been dismissed as speculation by moscow not only has this whole story been creating diplomatic rows of course as we've seen unraveling throughout the last couple of months but certainly now hmong journalists here on the ground following this conference where these latest revelations that. were journalists were confronting each other about opinions and certainly quite a media frenzy about these latest announcements and in terms of what specifically resigns was that they said that they have identified. through social media the who the man who's been described as the second suspect in this case he was initially presented as alexander patrol belling cat say his real name is alexander

miskin they see he is a medical doctor who was recruited by the g.r.u. before two thousand and three and was taken to moscow by the year twenty ten they say he was involved in visiting ukraine and in terms of identifying who they were there were quite a few loopholes and certainly lots of questions here from journalists follow ups to what they had to say one of the things that were curious is they said. their first so-called you reka moment as they describe it was when the name alexander came into the spotlight and then they tried to find a man who was born on the same day and the same pattern him but of course you know that is a very very very common name so they had to connect those dogs by trying to find after finding one person with the same details trying to find a pos board photo or some kind of i.d. they said that basically when they did find something according to bell and caps they couldn't really see exactly where they hit lock but we did get

a copy of the document they said that this man had been honored with hero of russia by the president putin himself however when it was asked for some kind of proof of this they talked about some kind of granny who lived in the village where this character was supposedly living and one person they had found via social media had told told them that this granny had showed the entire village where she lives a photo of this man being granted that honor by the russian president and when asked whether or not they were actually at least able to directly contact her they said she had vanished when they announce their event so certainly quite a few of these questions despite all of the headlines that these allegations have been made. the russian embassy here in the u.k. have said that they have essentially been told by the foreign office that this is all part of freedom of public debate and that the u.k. government does not comment and we've also heard from official moscow say that they

are essentially at this point tired of any leaks and speculations being made on all sides of the media and what they would like is official channels to cooperate on this matter let's take a look. at a few christiane of some of them and show a. picture of the but it turned into a question for months post and then kind of the it's the number of interest on the list and figures which include of instinct that sort of goes to part of some kind i don't mean many more of them. jim boulden many million lucia going to continue to know. you knew he. could sort of the brits who instituted while these journalistic of revelations if we can call them that continue to be made it does seem to continue to be a major standstill in terms of figuring out kind of a common way to move forward with this story which continues at this point to be a lot of he said she said and certainly

a lot of opposing opinions on how exactly and what had happened to script all and in terms of these specific individuals that have been in the headlines recently. but there are calls for us at school to be charged with emotional abuse after it separated a trans gender student during a shooter drill because it could not decide whether to send her to the boys or girls locker room there's been a massive backlash to the incident including from l g b t rights groups. during an event that prepares children to survive an attack by actual assailants she was treated as if she was so much of a danger to peers that she was left exposed and vulnerable school authorities are pledging to review all protocols. of islands in that community had gathered to celebrate the taking of the city from the christian army of king james the first of the thirteenth century the firefighters say their salaries are too low given the risks they face no arrests or injuries

reported following a car. there you have it all back and well it's a thirty four minutes with a full hour watching our team stay with us. when a loved one is murder it's natural to seek the death penalty for the murder i would prefer it be no and the death penalty just because i think that's the fair thing the right thing research shows that for every nine executions one convict is found innocent the idea that we were executing innocent people is terrifying there's just no way that hasn't been that we hear even many of the times families want the death penalty to be abolished the reason we have to keep the death penalty here is

because that's what murder victims' families what that's going to give them peace it's going to give them justice and we come in saying. not quite enough we've been through this this isn't the way. with the whole make this manufacture consent to step into the public wealth. when the ruling classes and protect themselves. in the final clearing go round lifts only the one percent. to ignore middle of the room six. million more you mean. join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to guest of
