met with derision in the u.k. parliament a big vote on her e.u. divorce deal is happening today. russian interpreters could be subpoenaed to testify before congress as democrats suggest the president is concealing information from his meetings with me through the. three months national debate gets under way in france as president tries to turn down the temperature of the yellow past protests. a welcome to the program here on r.t. international we are running down your top stories for this hour live from moscow. is perhaps the biggest day for breck's it since the day of the referendum back in twenty six the british m.p.'s will vote later on prime minister to resign may's e.u. divorce deal. it does come after five days of intense debate in parliament. over
3:02 am
these next twenty four hours if this deal the second year we see the divided government deliver a bush withdrawal deal with nothing more than a outline for what our future relationship with the e.u. will be when the history books are written people will look at the decision. during the past two years of shambolic negotiations the prime minister has failed to listen. we should to the british people and get on with building a brighter future for our country i think. the statement that. the government is in disarray it's clear it's a prime minister's deal is rejected tomorrow it's time for a general election it's time for you government. and it seems that the reason why
3:03 am
you won't get a lot of support for her deal from her own conservative party in fact some of her m.p.'s have already made it clear they will reject it. and asked us here truckin it gives us a round up of events leading up to today's big but. today could make or break what has become teresa mayes life mission delivering on what the british people voted for the twenty sixth the referendum the house of commons votes on the british prime minister's brags that if it gets their backing the u.k. will finally be able to get on with it as they say after more than two years of division and confrontation about what perhaps it is meant to look like but if lots of men is in big trouble and most predict that m.p.'s will be showing to recent means deal the door today's night is nothing more than a repetition of exactly the same position that was polled more than one months ago and doom is dead is the deadest downing street has already had to postpone the vote
3:04 am
on her deal in december in order to avoid the humiliation of defeat and we will therefore defer the coach actually for tomorrow. and not to proceed to divide the house at this time what followed was a slap in the face at home a vote of confidence triggered by her own conservative party may may have survived but passions continue to boil following this but we now need to get on with the job of delivering bricks it for the british people may travel back to brussels for some extra support but didn't quite get it the e.u. made it clear there will be no reading goshi ation on the withdrawal agreement only clarifications at the shore and says it's not open for you to add insult to injury reports were flying around that the president of the european commission was calling me names and i was on the grass you know if they haven't checked. it's. fast forward to today little has changed what's continued to pile up though is criticism m.p.'s have decided that may's government will have three days if the
3:05 am
deal is rejected to come up with plan b. a plan to resubmit is likely not to have opposition leader jeremy corbyn once a general election as a way out of the deadlock the government is in disarray. right it's time for a general election it's time for a new government but despite the resistance made continues to insist that her offer is the best one possible saying not supporting her deal would lead to a new deal brock's it for new projects if at all well the deal remains a serious risk having observed events at westminster over the last seven days it's now my judgment that the more likely outcome is a paralysis in parliament that risks that being no bret's it but isn't that something that so many politicians had preferred all along anyway with some already laying the groundwork for a second referendum what else can we possibly. do the british public we had
3:06 am
a case here it's up to get back in. to reconsider this bracks it is a call a church a swindle a fruit a deception but most of those people that promise to help you know why we bothering to leave and when we leave we're still subject to wally rules and paying in cash and all of this kind of thing freedom of movement but we have no say over it it's the votes cast on tuesday evening that will indicate in which direction the ship sailing in unchartered waters will head towards the next associate you're going to r.t. london meantime a pregnant m.p. from the u.k.'s labor party is postponing aces arion section to enable herself to take part in this crucial vote. if by some and does the role given one day later than the doctors advised but it's a rolled with a better chance of a strong relationship between britain and europe then that's worth fighting for. nathan gale a politician that m.e.p.
3:07 am
for wales thinks remain m.p.'s are doing everything they can to stop the bracks it from happening. she is the prime minister over a remain in the vast majority of m.p.'s who actually remain is so if she's telling them if they don't back a deal they will be no breaks it they're not going to back a deal she's not going to persuade them to do so it is said very clearly on the ballot paper to stay in the e.u. they said nothing about arranging a deal is said nothing about truth in the article fifteen said nothing about any of these delaying tactics in which the remain as a trying to galvanize the supports and trying somehow grasping with their fingernails to stay within the e.u. when the british people were very clear about what they wanted and the reality is five hundred m.p.'s voted to trigger article fifty fifty ses very clearly that it is even a deal that is all. we leave without a deal and there is no option in there no so i'm not sure where she's coming from.
3:08 am
in greece protesting schoolteachers have clashed with riot police over a proposed new hiring system tensions running high tear gas and battens were used to disperse the crowd. the violence took place near the greek parliament protesters about trying to force their way into the parliament but police as you can see way able to more or less push them back no arrests or injuries have been reported but two protesters well on friday when the demonstration got underway.
3:09 am
the. after months of violent protests all across france president emanuel is trying to engage the nation in a movement with cynicism by his political foes he's initiated a twelve week public consultation to address the issues that have inspiring the yellow vest protest movement. of course is the right one and we're not going to change it just because the wind is poor weak. i will not concede anything to those who want to struction and disorder.
3:10 am
at least. i take my share of responsibility. as france begins a nationwide form of group therapy president hopes he can find solutions to quell the anger over the yellow fest movement in doing so he's taken a leaf out of the book of the sixteenth he used a similar method to try and pull cold water on popular discontent with the french media drawing comparisons to how the french revolution began to bubble away it's not the first time that corn has been likened to
3:11 am
a king with these monarchical style of leadership and that seems to see through the letter he's written to citizens about his national debate for louis that debate ended in a revolution will it be different this time around for me there is no ban. this you were interviewing everything which is normal in a democracy but at least will show we're a people who are not afraid of talking exchanging debating not corn has promised that he will listen to all opinions but he's already come under fire for opposition politicians who've described the debates as a diversion a big debate a big diversion it's like redoing the presidential debate but the government is fixing the outcome the bait yes of course but when it comes to this big debate we don't know who's organizing it the topics are limited and before it even starts the government is announcing that it will adopt a radical policy. one
3:12 am
hopes this big debate focusing around four themes will be a turning point and though he says he listened to new ideas he's also been crystal clear that the core economic reforms that he's already instigated it's just scrapping a wealth tax won't be reversed the debates are not an opportunity for people to our floor all their frustrations nor are we questioning what we've done in the past eighteen months we're not replaying the election many protesters see the whole debate as no more than a masquerade ball look we don't care about the national debate because we know it won't change anything that really many demonstrations they used tear gas against protesters this national debate is like sleeping gas you know macross and suggested
3:13 am
a national debate but we know it's useless because the government says they won't review anything that's been done in the last eighteen months and there appears to be a real apathy for this initiative with one poll suggesting that only forty one percent of respondents saying that they would even take part. it wasn't just louis the sixteenth two faced his greatest challenge when the french took to the streets the fifth republic founded to also found his position untenable following the riots in sixty eight and with the yellow vests still calling for corns resignation it appears that this national debate may not be enough to heal the wounds of a country so deeply divided. auty paris. us democrats are reportedly preparing subpoenas for donald trump's interpreters who worked on his meetings with blood in me a puritan over concerns that the american president is concealing nationally significant information if i had
3:14 am
a choice i'd rather not do that with the with the interpreters but we may have no choice we'll have to see down down the road what happens but we want to get to the truth it comes after the washington post reporter the trump went to extraordinary lengths to conceal the content of his meetings with the russian president allegedly keeping the notes his interpreter had made of the articles published at the weekend suggested trump might indeed be a russian asset the us president was quick to react. i never work for russia you know that is are better that it is but i never worked for russia not only did i never work for russia i think it's a disgrace that you even asked that question because it's a whole big fat hoax that just dog trump also lashed out at the media saying it's getting crazier every single day another big story this weekend was an inquiry opened by the f.b.i. on whether trump was secretly working on behalf of russia and said the probe was
3:15 am
initiated off to trump fired f.b.i. chief james komi last year but the us president had his say on that as well. so the people doing his best to gauge it were people that have been caught that are known scoundrels there i guess you could say dirty cops so what you say should i have confidence in the f.b.i. or delegates agencies when i see or and i see all of these people when i see lisa and her lover and there's no sin there's sex gets captured and you see what they said about me having nothing to do with investigation the election is next year so what the republicans other people are going to be asking is why don't you just wait and get him out the old fashioned way by beating him by coming up with somebody better than actually the asons of what this thing is because in this froth and in this frenetic this move to say impeach impeach i respect lease him again i don't
3:16 am
think anybody really understand what impeachment means. the american public is complete and totally tone deaf at this point by virtue of this incessant russian collusion russians buying russian does. the american public it doesn't make any sense and more we've heard a big cheer waited to it anything new any version of russian involvement here american public just have said that enough with this police give us a new country maybe make it chinese just to mix it up a little bit americans are tone deaf when it comes to everything in any they russian and plenty more stories are coming our way here on this tuesday programming clothing police using water cannons and buttons to dispose of crowd in chile after a digital smile and was killed by officers i thought story in about.
3:17 am
as your health care executive or bank your cost. millions and millions of dollars if you're not part of the ball you are the one paying for it yes and that's why there's a lot of social unrest movement in france and around the world. bank or occupations coming to america. because it's all. about. what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. let it be an arms race. only.
3:18 am
to sit down and talk. stories here. the clashes erupted in chile where people took to the streets to protest the killing of a young indigenous by police. and local authorities used water cannon five demonstrators tried to block the road in front of the president so fishel residents of people young and. was killed by police and. authorities say this was during an operation against local coffee but off the video evidence of the shooting that was destroyed a circle officials resigned and police officers involved in the killing of.
3:19 am
a canadian data analytics has accused the us media of having a pro israel bias a new study published by four one six labs says u.s. outlets routinely depict israel in a much more favorable light than palestine. killam often looks at how this alleged bias might be making life a bit difficult for u.s. politicians if you want to be a mainstream politician being pro palestinian or anti israel is not your best option congresswoman tulsi gabbert was attacked after she announced that she was running for president in two thousand and twenty because she had criticized israel's use of live ammunition against gaza protestors among other things we wanted. to support for israel and i consider her a friend and good woman but she is dead wrong on assad and criticism of israel and gaza was a mass terrorist israel attacked and it's not enough to just support israel but you
3:20 am
have to want those who don't support israel to be punished senator marco rubio is going after a newly elected congresswoman simply because he had voted against a law that would penalize those who boycott israel and it's not just democrats who catch flack if they don't toe the tell of the line rand paul a republican is facing away the attack ads congress wants to authorize military support to keep israel safe president trump strongly supports it but rand paul will read his stand with israel or will you stand in the way if you want to be successful in politics follow the lead of new york city mayor bill de blasio he actually went as far as saying that being pro israel is part of his job and this is what i do as mayor it's a sacred responsibility to speak up for and defend the state of israel there is no closer relationship on earth literally no closer relationship than that between new york city and the state of israel and when it comes to media coverage of israel
3:21 am
palestine conflicts well it's not exactly. balanced new research shows that for the last fifty years pro israeli stories have been amplified in american media the large gap in israel centric headlines over palestinian ones was four to one in favor of israeli stories israeli perspectives and narratives find greater space in the american media compared to those of palestinians now the authors don't even see this imbalance is a problem they think it's just natural that u.s. media would follow us foreign policy critically this appears to be a systemic problem and coverage rather than a result of deliberate planned bias instead of this has likely more to do with what scholars allude to as the u.s. media's affinity to broadly align and support their government's foreign policy objectives but despite the media imbalance the us public is becoming less and less favorable to israel a new poll shows that thirty eight percent of americans think that israel has too
3:22 am
much influence in american politics and that's fifty five percent among democrats so it looks like the gap between the u.s. public and mainstream media coverage is growing up and r.t. new york the outgoing chief of staff of the i.d.f. has for the first time acknowledged that israel has supplied syria to militants with weapons something that has been long denied a middle east correspondent paula slayer investments. he also said that israel has been supplying light weapons to syrian forces fighting against the syrian president bashar al assad and that these weapons have been for self defense now was the idea of chief of staff of the past three years and essentially these comments from him spill the beans on what until now has been pointing guarded secret he also said that israel began attacking the reigning infrastructure back in january that the west systematic and that it was happening beneath the radar on january twentieth seventeen would begin attacking the infrastructure they run into
3:23 am
a building in syria agreed to go master was just seventeen would begin attacking systematically a number of times each week without making any statements the radar this is not the first time he said that israel has been involved in syria all that israel has been supporting rebel fighters against a side back in september last jurgens waiting to flynn's forces forced the jerusalem post newspaper to take down an article in which it said that israel was supporting the rebel fighters in november last year there were also reports that a form a israeli defense minister had met with syrian rebels and earlier the wall street journal also published a report in which it said that israel was providing syrian rebels with cash now despite all of the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu has always insisted that israel is not in any way involved in syria. we do not interfere in this terribly bloody conflict we do however provide humanitarian aid to young boys and girls it is expensive but we will continue to invest in the israeli defense forces
3:24 am
has so far not publicly commented on these comments although its twitter page is full of tweets people wishing the outgoing. a base don't lack for years of conflict in syria have left scars on the country and its people many of its citizens are still having to fight for and rebuild their lives here is the story of one boy. my friend and i were playing ball when we found something in our backyard was even though it was a mortar shell started to play with it down we decided to put it in the basement and that's when the explosion happened. a few of them with a friend died in that explosion so my son got multiple injuries and doctors had to amputate one of his life so there was a risk he would lose the others i didn't know what to do luckily in the hospital
3:25 am
limit russian doctor ilya. i will be back with more of your stories at the top of the hour. when i came back from a. now oh mary was her was cocaine methamphetamine so anything that's altering trying to get us out of. that
3:26 am
bad mindset using the chemical that would be so. i want to be drinking and drinking ino new nope just killing myself drinking alcohol links don't drink to get drunk alcoholics drink to feel normal. that's why it's this way drug addicts do what they do a shot while still for them and their. star cool under which these guys are going through to it it just means to. reduce need to be hoped and good pushed on by the v.a.'s are as drugs go and stuff they need to be built. they've really shouldn't be looked at like numbers they should be looked at like people if they go to a veteran center for health issues be considered as someone who really needs attention.
3:27 am
oh hi i'm max keiser this is the kaiser report welcome much to cover here today states could this. that is what i see said to joe lieberman joe lieberman that dinosaur from the past of the democratic party you know he used to represent connecticut for the entirety of my life living in connecticut and he's saying the future of the democratic party is not a o.c. alexandra cortez she responded on twitter who did this i thought that was a good way to what you understand social media she is native to social media joe lieberman is native to the. you know kind of story. and i want to also point out we had a very excellent episode of gonzo so episode two airing just on sunday night
3:28 am
you can go over to our tease youtube page and watch it we had a great interview with constantine gird given monterey california born in the soviet union and he has some really interesting things to say about this whole dynamic of the political infrastructure here in america the political space this sort of tribalism and this comparing some groups of the mansion vic's and some to the bolsheviks wish which quite interesting so you should go check that out gonzo episode you know people love this guy so serious that we've got on our team now to max and stacy traveling across the country and there's put a link to it right on the show they should add it to the show put a link to it on their show there you go that's good yeah do it and later in this week of kai's reports i want to talk about what else and said because that fits into this whole. political atmosphere here in america that plays into the economics
3:29 am
because the politics and economics are very merged right now we talk mostly about financial markets and economics but they're really intersecting right now and you know that's an interesting thing to look forward to but right now i want to look at this tweet from the internet them s. and p. five hundred is up seven percent thus far during the government shutdown on pace for its best shutdown performance ever so triumph is the best ever the best shutdown and u.s. government history and shutdowns great again. so the average. how the s. and p. five hundred does during a government shutdown is up zero point zero point three percent his is up seven percent so twice what's up seven percent the s. and p. five hundred up market oh right yeah so his stop market is doing very well while this government shutdown it could be saying something negative about the trunk government that the markets are doing so well once he shuts his government down
3:30 am
well remember jay powell got the meaning of the plunge protection team together when the markets were down heading into correction territory or bear market territory yes i was statement which actually who tweeted it he. decided to get the plug protection team together which was a conspiracy theory up until steve nugent confirmed that there is a group within the government that is minute relating markets when needed according to them and it's been up ever since and you know why government shutdowns are very good is because we have an oligarch here and as princeton university their studies have shown that we have an oligarchies and then in fact voters have very little influence on anything the government does so that the government is shut down i want to show you two headlines here that prove in fact that no matter what voters want because we have an oligarch because almost all of our politicians are in the pockets of some big corporation no matter what you want to do no matter what how
3:31 am
many how much good you want your government to do it always ends up bad.
