you'll force your voice belongs to you and. if you'll force people to accept. you should. if this is a different. group you should see. a gunman this rampage in a crowded bar in california kills twelve people including the deputy sheriff police say the suspect committed suicide following the assault. mayhem following this week's elections president is out of the media dividing the u.s. . and left wing protesters target fox news. outside his home.

i. just as a recent study finds a surge in opposition to multiculturalism and growing support for authoritarian rule among germans. i don't agree with that at all and i hope that the majority doesn't seem to me. to see the people. thanks for joining us this. twelve people including a deputy sheriff have been killed in a mass shooting at a crowded bar in a small city in the l.a. more than a dozen people were also injured in the attack the suspect is said to have committed suicide there's no known motive for the attack at this time the local sheriff

address the public and media upon going through the front door. the sheriff's sergeant was struck multiple times with gunfire sergeant. the sergeant passed away at the hospital the ventura police department and additional officers from our patrol. they made entry into the borderline bar and grill. they found eleven victims that had been killed. the suspect who we believe it was the only suspect was dead inside. and there were multiple other victims of different levels of injury inside that were rescued from the scene and taken to local hospitals. thousand oaks city is about sixty kilometers west of los angeles that was ranked by the f.b.i.

as one of the safest cities in the u.s. those with a population of over one hundred thousand calls to police started coming in around eleven fifteen pm local time deputies responded to reports of a gunman firing a semiautomatic weapon terrified customers hit on the tables and in bathrooms during the shooting in what was a cottage country music night for local university students hundreds at a time when this is described how events unfolded. i was on the dance floor dancing and experienced you and then all my friends were at the table right by the door and then i turned your i heard the gunshot i turned around and i started him shooting a couple more times and in a split second everyone yelled get down so i ran to the left of the dance floor where the back door is and everyone pretty much dug probably on top of each other they were very very loud gunshot they were very clear what they were the shots kept going and going and going we just heard people say right and we looked at as fast

as we cut. the shooting incident came just a day off to crucial midterm elections wrapped up in the united states the results leave congress split between america's two major parties with the democrats seizing the house of representatives republicans keeping the senate at a press conference following the vote to president trump once again lashed clashed with the media trading blame with reporters for divisions within the united states . it isn't good what the media is doing and that i do have the right to fight back on the campaign trail you called yourself a nationalist some people saw that as emboldening white nationalist security system question i would never do that and i don't use race and if you marched. in america it's people like this that cause division one of the statements that you made in the killing of the q there we go. i think you should let me run the country you run c.n.n. all right and if you did it well your ratings on. the other folks that said. this

wasn't that's enough was present the other folks said. you are a rude terrible person. mr president in going to go in jim's defense i traveled with him and watched abuse of children reported. to them so either step would be out of the way i mean while the left wing movement have targeted a fox news anchor from the group surrounded tucker carlson's home chanting insults . the t.v. host wasn't home at the time however his wife was there she. phoned the police the couple have four children activists rang his doorbell and broke his door. and many have dubbed the midterms a referendum on trump's presidency it seems he has passed the test with republicans

retaining their senate majority explaining what exactly that means. so which party won the epic midterm battle for control of the u.s. congress well if you listen to both sides they both won and last night the republican party defied history to expand our senate majority to found the story of the constitution's checks and balances do the job. fancy pelosi has got plenty of reason to be happy she just got her job back as speaker of the house the first time the democrats have had a majority in the house of representatives in eight years they can now launch an investigation spree into donald trump and block all kinds of legislation but you would think they would have won a bigger blowout after all they are running against the new hitler who happens to also be a russian spy you can go for nationalism you can go for anger opposite of hitler the same type of propaganda to you would have seen in germany in one thousand and

thirty eight these comparisons to trump it's like it bums me out but trump will be outmatched by putin and i have never seen an american president simply surrender to the leader of russia we call it soccer now the donald is far from a media darling lots of media criticism and pressure and his losses weren't so bad when compared to his recent predecessors he not only maintained control of the senate but the republicans actually picked up a few seats so do lots of americans just like hitler and russian spies well perhaps they were just watching a different channel twenty seventeen was a very successful first year for president trump unlike obama business confidence is now soaring on the president trump in fact the news is so good so the vote was described as a referendum on the donald so what's the verdict well the voters seem to have stayed within one of two echo chambers there is one echo chamber that loves the

donald and the other that hates him the country is divided and now. congress along with it definitely the u.s. media and the political parties have definitely created more divisiveness and more friction between. between the parties as well as within the within the society itself and i think the media is largely to blame there. sometimes leaking information that should not be leaked sometimes. twisting the story a different way than that shouldn't be too it's good to know because sometimes just falsely claiming something that's not correct in memphis instantiated so i think we've got. we've got a media and also elements within the government better actually creating within the u.s. government that are actually creating more of a divide it's the. atmosphere within the population. over five thousand victims of war have been treated so far this year in hospitals run by a u.n. backed humanitarian organization in afghanistan

a third of them was children the organization called emergency has been active in the country since one thousand nine hundred nine they say the violence there is relentless preparing to get the warring parties together for negotiations playing host to afghan peace talks tomorrow a dozen countries are invited on the town about and is also sending a delegation it's the first time the militant group will take part in this kind of high level meeting after almost two decades of war in afghanistan. reports though when everyone has welcomed the talks. by any measure the afghan war has dragged on for too long too many people the dead too little achieved too much hatred bred why don't try something new this is a very good opportunity and we would like to participate and raise our genuine issues we would urge these world powers to help resolve the afghan issue as per international laws and principles the afghan high peace council will send four

delegates the taliban five reportedly representatives of a dozen nations have also been invited and it couldn't have happened soon enough. on just one day the twentieth of october a jury elections three hundred and eighty eight civilians were. plethora of attacks so no wonder that even nato is calling for peace the top on the must understand the continuing to fight this pointless there must sit down on the negotiating table the potential for peace is creating our interest being in many years unless of course peace is made in moscow in which case the us won't support it america is skipping the moscow peace summit saying washington only

supports afghan led efforts but it will send an observer the united states believes that all countries should support direct dialogue between the government of afghanistan and the taliban to reach an end to the war and. we've been clear that no government clued in russia can be a substitute for the afghan government interact negotiations with the taliban wave which never stopped the u.s. special envoy from meeting taliban officials in cata last month for direct negotiations i think the more countries that approach the afghan government and the taleban and all the warring parties and say let's talk let's have peace rather than war that's a very logical thing for most people and for most countries i just don't think in the united states the united states at this particular time wants to see it also

the military industrial complex in the united states is a very very big part of the us economy the guns and the planes and the ships and the bombs that they use and sell all around the world support a lot of jobs in the united states i don't think that the war is in general or going to end if they can do some maneuver to make a better situation for the united states in afghanistan they are probably talking about that and would like to see that seventeen years of war and terror is nato soldat countless thousands dead on each every side generations thread and misery and violence drunken hatred and the heroin finally the taliban agrees to open talks it's a huge deal ed the u.s.

possums war it seems is preferable to peace that comes with russian help. the british government is facing a wave of criticism for its handling of the off some off of the ground felt how a fire seventy two people died a year ago in the blaze that engulfed a block of flats in london the government's accused of placing gagging orders on experts investigating the tragedy. brings us the details. well love critics of the british government have dubbed it shameful in light of information that has emerged about a company that was hired just days following the grand fell fire tragedy to analyze and investigate u.k. government state building c fifty and that company was reportedly told not to criticize to resubmit and her government this was revealed as part of a comprehensive investigation carried out by the times newspaper which disclosed that among hundreds of other contracts the specific one hundred thousand pounds

contract with an engineering company called w s p had instructed that particular company not to quote create. adverse publicity for the cabinet or other crown bodies when looking at the situation involving other buildings around the country following the grunfeld fire and of course reactions to such a gag order on clotting experts was was not met with open arms this shows. if you respect to do so. would. follow the truth wherever it led. rather than gagging experts and purred ties in reputed damage this conservative government should be doing everything in its power to ensure they never happens again coming just a few weeks after the prime minister promised to get tough on gagging causes these shocking revelations show the government to be deeply hyper critical as well as

paranoid and this is how the government had to respond to all of this standard contracts in the public and the private sector contain provisions to protect the commercial interests of government and its suppliers in a reasonable way these contracts do not prevent individuals from campaigning on specific issues acting as whistleblowers or reason concerns about policy while low the grenfell tower of course took place on june fourteenth last year it was a fire that killed seventy two people it lasted many many hours and really brought lots and lots of criticism in terms of the initial reaction of theresa may and her government and as well as the days that followed.

well the grandfather united campaign group reacted to these latest revelations with a statement saying quote the focus at every level of government must be to get to the truth about how and why grand fell happened no one should be deterred from speaking out and quote. coming up next the poll in germany suggests that i'm going to merkel should call time on her chancellorship before her time finishes in twenty twenty one more on that after a short break. i

think it's important to do something that you're passionate about and even if you know you may not think you can do that and i didn't think there was any chance of me becoming an astronaut but i really that's what i was passionate about and i wanted to at least try sir at least if you try whatever it is you're interested in in general for people if you have that passion if you have something you think is really interesting but you think it might not be possible that doesn't matter just just give it a try and you never know where you might end up. in a world of big partisan. and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that made history media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the back and shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the

middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks. welcome back to our teams the national police have been deployed in the german city of hamburg where hundreds of protesters have running for and against i'm going to michael's migrant policies. when groups called the rally to denounce michael's open door policy what you've seen over a million people pour into the country since the height of the market crisis in twenty fifteen when the count approaches this we're tempted to drop their arrival at always station that led to a heated standoff with police. and many germans have been calling on michael to step down from her role as shots as early as next year as a response to her stating. she will continue to the end of her time in twenty

twenty one merkel won't be seeking reelection after a series of disastrous results for her party in regional elections now a growing number of germans say they prefer a more tarion leader auntie's europe correspondent peter all of the has the details . new polling into the political leanings of germans has raised more than a few eyebrows eighty percent of those polled said they favored dictatorship is the ruling form for the country with eleven percent saying they were in on side with strong leadership there i spoke to people on the streets of berlin they were shocked that anyone here would hold those type of ideas. it's terrible we've been through that in history would you why thinking about those you know this is our past this is our past it cannot be allowed to become our future i don't agree with that at all and i hope that the majority doesn't this is the this is auschwitz i peonage as in one thousand nine hundred sixty two. this has been present in germans

for a long time this is just a consequence of that it doesn't surprise me because because. i see the people particularly well i think this everyone's personal choice may be due to the refugee crisis lately that may have impacted some people's opinions the government has to make something so that the country is led into a better better place and not into a worse place than it is already. will join life now by the bavarian chairman of alternative for germany party president strong thanks for joining us good to have you on the line. she's been losing political ground and now public support as well do you think she will see out her final term as she said until twenty twenty one. i knew america was a lame duck and it was pretty obvious already after the election. next year lost

the election the studio lost their way but she still wanted to keep it to stay on our story or have seen. tremendous problem even to get together a coalition and now one year later are. all those problems come up against. city you and it is sort of consummate it's under socialism both are losing and the consequence is that america lost disappoint in the her on part d. in the city who and now she has to keep up to give up that part of the power in the party and she is now trying to stay at least the chancellor but the chances are low we got the information that the socialist alimentary and so are already looking for new jobs outside of the parliament because they think that this government will not remain any longer. according to recent polls some german voters would prefer what's

been described as a more thorough tarion regime a mortal thora terry and method of governance over the current political system considering the gains that you've made the f.t. has made what do you make of that. well does this is a company that rubbish this is not the majority. of the population the german people don't want that out there it's only another issue bought and this is very important they already have one because of what happens in the country now under and go america this is very young so ritzer in you have to think about it that the government. is separate loosing stake in us like in chemist's the government is this missing a cleric's just because they are opposing the government like with books on mohsen the government is sending secret police against the opposition and so on and so on we are facing. election fraud always to do this outlandish of bill position

so the situation this really very critical in germany already some polls suggest there's a growing hostility as well towards migrants towards religious minorities what do you think causes that one of the roots of that growing hostility according to polls at least towards these groups. well again as already winston churchill sat the i believe only to stop this think so i force myself you shouldn't. every every pore you have read you know fact is that the germans are very open minded people and they're still becoming. people from abroad this is not the point you are referring to a poem which was money plenty in and no way that there were a question like dual seeing among. could be also some terrorism if the people said yes i think so they said all this is this is

a right wing expression and. it doesn't look like this better thing is story. facts and for example the numbers from the police are saying that there are. acts against me grounds dropping down there are who i know attacks to get against me grounds and this year as there are no at the at the acts against the. refugee houses saw this this is a real point and this is the reason why the government. is producing statements on this topic like it in ten minutes. ok put up a strong chairman of the all turn to for germany party thanks for joining us today on r.t. good to have your take. thank you very much. that's it for this hour for myself and the team at r.t. thanks for staying with us so join us again six pm moscow time for the latest

global news update. there's nowhere below ground bridge here and no wonder no weiss is a terrorist. but there are bird memories. twenty four years ago this country saw a real end of the world. after the genocide there are more women in rwanda than men. in feltham women to fix what the men had broken.

so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy on foundation let it be an arms race is on offer and spearing dramatic development only personally i'm going to exist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical that i am time to sit down and talk. it's hard to imagine decades after the war a nazi doctor was still active and rich in the nineteen seventies gruntal had as the chair of its board a man convicted of mass murder and slavery at ashwood a german company develops and admired a drug that was promoted as completely safe even during bring them to you it turned out to have terrible side effects what has happened to my being. anything paul you know she said she's just got choked up mimics a little mind victims i have to this day received no compensation they never

apologized for the suffering that i did not only want the money i want the revenge . suitable to submit for. my will for something and this is their. role is going to say the boy a business with the most disorder. this is new with. a lot of slow slow slow slow slow motion i am.

ok see that look i know it deal but you also look at the model your body is diplo with most of its load from the show such as the fluid soles and. the moon neutral and you must. move. along a while to. two worlds apart space exploration something that humanity has long gotten used to taking for granted has stumbled into uncertainties here with all

technology is plagued by delayed choice and new ones still in development when we once again find ourselves grounded on planet earth to discuss that i'm now joined by mike massimino a former us ostinato professor off mechanical engineering at columbia university mike thank you very much for the time it's good to talk to my pleasure that you always sound very positive her book about the future of space exploration but given the functions on the russian side not the delays on the american side how confident are you that the international space station will continue being inhabited for years to come. very confident i think that our russian friends in their space program have shown that they have a pretty good track record they've been launching so use for a very well. paid they lost the rocket just this past month that was not a good thing but it they didn't lose the crew and i think that one of the good

things about their system is that you're able to separate the crew from the rocket that is having an issue the russian space agency was very quick to announce the loss of so use wrong it was due to what they said a full t. context which reportedly got bent during. the baikonur cosmodrome did you find that explanation plausible or you know i i really don't know much about that particular issue but i do have confidence from all the years that nasa and working both with nasa and with our russian counterparts that they do the right thing and they work pretty well together or countries don't always agree on other things apparently and yet in one case critical detail gets bad during some way i mean it's not like you know they were cooking in the kitchen i mean i suppose that there should be so you might want to sever about it i mean i don't i don't i can't pass judgment on what went on there how they have that problem but i can say this that pretty confident.
