a potentially could mean she is not you can see the protesters are trying to throw back at the cheery cast of pellets now she would say the police to woods this c.r.s. . official figures from the interior ministry say around seven thousand people are out in paris today taking part in this ten through weekend of protests according to these figures across france it's twenty seven thousand individuals that is fall lower than the figures we saw just a week ago when there were more than eighty thousand people lived across france but the sheerly shields of all student just future huge clues figures from the ministry over the in syria well as we can see there is anger on the streets now let's take a look back now at that anger that's been put. lingos us since november seventeenth it's. all the course is the right

one and we don't come to change it just because the wind is blowing. i will not concede anything to do see one destruction and disorder. take my share of responsibility. as you can see some damage to a vehicle that protesters trying to throw projectiles to wards the police somebody that being dragged away looks like they've received an injury as a result of something that's been hit and then you can see just chaos ensuring as

a trying to get somebody injured out of these crowds at the moment there's also being months of violence against journalists in these protests and it was actually a protest underway today against that violence i can just hear behind us something sounding like it's being snatched up i mean really has just gone from total cohen to chaos in just a matter of moments here on the streets of paris. her her. and as you can see this is just becoming yet another example of the extreme violence. that we've been seeing in paris over the last few months.

donald trump has firmly rejected a damning new report by buzz feed news which claims he instructed his former lawyer michael cohen to lie to congress about a planned business deal in russia cohen is among those behind investigated in a russian collusion probe investigation itself is being led by special counsel of openly whom the president thanked for not giving the buzz feed article annie. i think that. the. great work. with great journalist and i appreciate you coming out. right i think very appropriate so i very much agree that. the report detailing cohen's alleged confession to special counsel millett investigation into election meddling has caused a sensation in the media it was branch bombshell article and immediately led to talk of impeachment president trump is facing new scrutiny today over

a report that he told his personal attorney to lie to congress about his business dealings with russia we have breaking news tonight on the russia investigation here's what buzz feed news is reporting tonight bombshell report coming from buzz feed news president trump directed his attorney to lie to congress about the moscow tower project congressional democrats calling for an immediate investigation declaring the trial must be impeached if the story is true the media quickly picked up on the story despite the fact that the whole piece is based on anonymous sources a washington correspondent dan cohen takes up the story buzz feed news released a major report alleging that u.s. president donald trump has received ten personal updates from michael cohen and encouraged to plan meetings with russian president vladimir putin. president donald trump directed his longtime attorney michael cohen to lie to congress according to two federal law enforcement officials involved in an investigation of the matter

and even as trump told the public he had no business deals with russia the sources said trump and his children if the and donald trump jr received regular detailed updates about the real estate development from cohen whom they put in charge of the project and michael cohen is the former lawyer of donald trump he was sentenced to thirty six months in prison after he pleaded guilty to lying to congress about the trump tower plan he's also admitted to campaign finance violations cash t.v. agents and fake fraud and of course he's a key figure in the investigation for the so-called russian collusion probe and the two journalists wrote in their article that they didn't actually see the court documents or any evidence that they base their reporting on rather they were briefed by two anonymous law enforcement officials and jason leopold that one of the authors of this buzz feed article has a history of fabricating sources regarding the cohen story today leopold told m s n

b c that he had actually seen the evidence showing that trump instructed michael cohen to lie to congress and it's a total contradiction to what's written in the article and what his co-author has said i don't think that we've said that we haven't. but i will say that i'm very confident that your colleagues said on c.n.n. this morning that you were briefed on these documents we did say that we we've seen documents we've been briefed on documents we're very confident in our reporting was feed has problems all the way around not to mention the people who actually write for it the authors have real credibility problems they can't get their story straight and their sources whatever those are named an unknown which we've gotten used to in this country is being credible so maybe. this is been manufactured to give some interesting and relevance to to to that continued testimony by this

perjurer by this liar by this guy you can't form a sentence in the english language without indicting him self over it i mean a loss as to the excitement over this there's there's no there there on top of which the president through his counsel denies it flatly so you know if there's evidence it's hard to say that you deny something if there's evidence for it did journalism it's groups of people who slap together a website you get people who are paid to report who are wrong including one of these fellows who has a bit early heated layer wrong and who perhaps allegedly his own may call into question his veracity and nothing's ever done you have a new it's a journalistic force and sachems of the american people who don't care whether this story is true they like the story because it makes trump look bad and if the story makes trump look bad they like we've seen some democrats promise that they will investigate the report calling the allegations against trump quote among the most

serious to date some have even gone so far as to call for president trump's impeachment so we'll have to see how this one pans out and these can certainly spread if it fits a particular narrative and that's exactly what's pretty republican senator lindsey graham in the mainstream spotlight off to a comedian tweeted that russia has him cornett. lindsey graham is so obviously being blackmailed by russia. but. a republican just told me that he graham is good towing to trump and in directly putting because he's being blackmailed rather he thinks it probably involves some pretty serious sexual. love for donald trump got elected lindsey graham called donald trump a racist. bigot or it could be the donald trump or somebody knows something pretty

extreme about lindsey graham. i am pretty sure there is something happening with him based on what evidence what facts that's a remarkable comment to make about a sitting u.s. senator. the evidence really. present. presented to us in the way that. the president. is disrupting democracy everywhere and i mean the united states and in me a democracy to interfere in our elections we don't care why we're going to hit you in here too hard on russia. it's not a normal country. and american born journalist who works as a news presenter on iranian state t.v.

has been arrested in the u.s. as a material witness in an undisclosed case a court order revealed on friday that although she has been detained he's not been charged with a crime. you know ok. the fact that certain belcher instructions were there just natural instructions were not being accounted. for headstart had been answered well. we are concerned by the arrest of a journalist for iranians say to be shamy we have serious concerns about her

detention and we urge american authorities to clarify the situation. she's a famous journalist she's done nothing but journalism and the rest of mrs hosiery is very clear affront to freedom of expression a political abuse of an innocent individual. i believe the united states should previously immediately videotape it giving. the. spoken exclusively to a close friend of the child iranian t.v. anchor she shared her concerns about the legality of his detention and the conditions she's being subjected to in custody the only information contact the family of harper's magazine is a telephone call to her daughter on tuesday where they received wiring information

from my. daughter that she had had jobs a muslim woman who was a hit job a vial cover. such as will time wearing at the moment that was taken off against her will the mug shot was taken without her job on that she was given only a short sleeved t. shirt in contravention to her own islamic dress code her that she she wears and that she had to gain another t. shirt just to be able to cover some of her hair she also told her daughter that she wasn't in absence given adequate food because she was not given allow muslim option or a vegetarian option and on to say the only conversation they've had with her she told her daughter that she had only been able to eat a cracker or some bread that came with that food since being detained if they had questions about four miles here in regards to an issue she would have all of them that is what her son has said the children have been subpoenaed as well and they

have no idea why you can imagine how worried they are for their mother and how nervous they are about the situation marcy is an internationally known journalist and she's been a journalist for many decades she is an american journalist and she has been detained without charge without information so it's truly very concerning according to the court order which was issued by the u.s. district court in washington d.c. shamim must testify before a grand jury investigation after that she'll be released however many are still concerned by the detention including a number of human rights groups. there's a grand jury investigation nobody knows what it's about and she's being held as a material witness which means that she's not the person accused but they think that she knows something about a crime a felony a very serious crime and it's serious enough that a judge has authorized her arrest so whatever is happening it is under the

supervision of the judge what's disturbing is that two of her children were also subpoenaed to testify before the grand jury here in washington d.c. so what could she possibly have been involved in that her children also would know about she has the rights to do journalistic walk for whichever outlet she chooses to do in any part of the world that she chooses and she also has the right to travel freely as a journalist and as a citizen throughout the united states that she's a journalist unless we're saying now donald trump's america journalism is a crime you know i have no other answer to that that the children i have a cat all the organizations they all skink the information as to why she is being detained there's something very dark going on in the united states at the moment you know there's islamophobia there's this anti iran sentiment there's this anti media anti journalism sentiment unprecedented times in the united states and i said

that my friend i'm a journalist and she is a fiery journalist as has been victim to that and it's unacceptable and the lack of information is unacceptable and the family is demanding to know what is going on with their mother their grandmother that you know she is a sister she was traveling to the united states to. see her ailing brother she has the right to do so without fearing detention taking an internal flight. at least sixty six people have been killed and dozens of others badly burned in a pipeline explosion north of mexico city. it's believed to have been caused by cvs who were trying to siphon off fuel oil had reportedly been spilling out for several hours before the blast happened and officials say hundreds of people were filling up plastic containers the nation's president is now promising
