day of yellow dress protests have taken place nationwide in france over what they call rising living costs and government policies despite the president micron's efforts to quell the unrest by launching a national debate which he's promised will result in a new social contract take ass and kind and work again deployed by police to disperse the demonstrators. we're seeing the first tensions here in paris today as act ten is underway of those relations over in the distance you might be able to see the wards i can and they're trying to disperse the protesters away from this area we did see protesters actually trying to break down some of the traffic lights and we've also seen tear gas being displacing looks like there's some people down on the ground

a little bit further over that boy a tree looks like that potentially could have remained she is now as you can see the protesters are trying to throw back at the tear gas a pellets now she would say the police. official figures from the interior ministry say around seventy thousand people are out in paris today taking part in this tense weekend of protests but the generations of didn't just speech egypt those 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 bubbling owes us since november seventeenth it's. out of 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 those who want to struction and disorder. take my share of responsibility. as you can see some damage to a vehicle that protesters trying to throw jack just to wards of police and 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 they're trying to get somebody injured out of this just crowds the moment there's also being much of violence against journalists in these protests and it was

actually a protest underway today against the violence i can just hear behind us something sounding like it's being smashed up i mean really has just gone from total cohen even to chaos in just a matter of moments. during this protest was meant to be in tribute to the people who have joined in these protests since they began and also been injured in these protests and in europe so i could be even more injuries are they. hiring. that. has firmly rejected a damning new record by buzz feed news which claims he instructed his former lawyer michael cohen to lie to congress about a plan a business deal in russia cohen is among those being investigated in a rush a conclusion probe investigation itself is being led by special counsel robert

mueller and the president fanged for not giving the buzz feed article any credence . i think that the. great war god it was a great journalist and i appreciate you coming out with. i think very appropriate so i very much appreciate. the report detailing come into let's confession to special council minutes investigation into election meddling has caused a sensation in the media it was branded a bombshell to cole 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 that i'd bombshell report coming from buzz feed news president directed his attorney to lie to congress about the moscow tower

project congressional democrats calling for an immediate investigation declaring the trump must be impeached at the story is true the media quickly picked up on the story despite the fact that the whole piece is based on anonymous sources washington correspondent don 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 lights a 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

a michael cohen is the former lawyer of donald trump he was sentenced to thirty. three to cut into that we're going to cross live now right to the white house and washed away u.s. president trying to speaking on the ongoing government shutdown over border security he's expected to offer democrats a compromise plan to solve the crisis but let's listen in and see what he actually said was no distinctions of race or class or faith or gender or background all americans whether first generation were tenth generation are bound together in love and loyalty friendship and affection we are all equal we are one team and one people proudly saluting one great american flag we believe in a safe and lawful system of immigration one that appalls our laws our traditions and our most cherished values unfortunately our immigration system

has been badly broken for a very long time over the decades many presidents and many lawmakers have come and gone and no real progress has been made on immigration. we are now living with the consequences and they are tragic brought about by decades of political stalemate partisan gridlock and national neglect. there is a humanitarian and security crisis on our southern border that requires urgent action thousands of children are being exploited by ruthless coyotes and vicious cartels and gangs one in three women is sexually assaulted on the dangerous journey north in fact many loving mothers give their young daughters birth control pills for the long journey up to the united states because

they know they may be raped or sexually accosted. or assaulted. nearly fifty migrants a day are being referred for urgent medical care vast quantities of lethal narcotics are flooding through our border and into our communities including meth cocaine heroin and fenton all drugs kill seventy eight thousand americans a year and cost our society in excess of seven hundred billion dollars. heroin alone kills three hundred americans a week ninety percent of which comes across our southern border we can stop heroin illegal immigration reduces wages and strains public services the lack of border control provides

a gateway a very wide and open gateway for criminals and gang members to enter the united states including the criminal aliens who murdered a brave california police officer only a day after christmas i've gotten to know and love angel moms dads and family. lost loved ones to people illegally in our country i want this to end it's got to end now these are not talking points these are the heartbreaking realities that are hurting innocent precious human beings every single day on both sides of the border as a candidate for president i promised i would fix this crisis and i intend to keep that promise one way or the other our immigration system should be the subject of

pride not a source of shame as it is all over the world our immigration system should be the envy of the world not a symbol of disunity and dysfunction the good news is these problems can all be solved but only if we have the political courage to do what is just and what is right. both sides in washington must simply come together listen to each other put down their armor build trust reach across the aisle and find solutions it is time to reclaim our future from the extreme voices who fear compromise and demand open borders which means drugs pouring in human trafficking and a lot of crime that is why i am here today to break the logjam and provide

congress with a path forward to end the government shutdown and solve the crisis on the southern border if we are successful in this effort we will then have the best chance in a very long time at real bipartisan immigration reform and it won't stop here it will keep going until we do it all the proposal i will outline today is based on first and foremost an input from our border agents and homeland security professionals and professionals they are they know what they're doing it is a compassionate response to the ongoing tragedy on our southern border in recent weeks we have met with large numbers of democrat lawmakers to hear their ideas and suggestions by incorporating the priorities of rank and file democrats in

our plan we hope they will offer their enthusiastic support. and i think many will this is a commonsense compromise both parties should embrace the radical left can never control our borders i will never let it happen walls are not immoral in fact they are the opposite of immoral because they will save many lives and stop drugs from pouring into our country our plan includes the following. eight hundred million dollars in urgent humanitarian assistance. eight hundred five million dollars for drug detection technology to help secure our ports of entry an additional two thousand seven hundred fifty border

agents and law enforcement professionals. seventy five new immigration judge teams to reduce the court backlog of believe it or not almost nine hundred thousand cases however the whole concept of having lengthy trials for anyone who sets one foot in our country unlawfully must be changed by congress it is unsustainable it is ridiculous few places in the world would even consider such an impossible nightmare our plan includes critical measures to protect migrant children from exploitation and abuse this includes a new system to allow central american minors to apply for asylum in their home countries and reform to promote family reunification for unaccompanied

children thousands of whom wind up on our border doorstep to physically secure our border the plan includes five point seven billion dollars for a strategic deployment of physical barriers or a wall this is not a two thousand mile concrete structure from sea sea to. these are steel barriers in high priority locations much of the border is already protected by natural barriers such as mountains and water we already have many miles of barrier including one hundred fifteen miles that we are currently building or under contract it will be done quickly our request will add another two hundred thirty miles this year in the areas our border agents most urgently need it will have an unbelievable impact if we build

a powerful and fully designed see through steel beriah on our southern border the crime rate and drug problem in our country would be quickly and greatly reduced some say it could be cut in half. because these criminals drug smugglers gangs and traffickers do not stop at our border they permeate throughout our country and they end up in some places where you'd least expect can they go all over our country a steel barrier will help us stop illegal immigration while safely directing commerce to our lawful ports of entry many of these security ideas have been proposed by democrats themselves and all of them have been supported by democrats in the past including a physical barrier wall or fence furthermore in order to build the trust and

good will necessary to begin real immigration reform there are two more elements to my plan number one is three years of legislative relief for seven hundred thousand doc and recipients brought here unlawfully by their parents at a young age many years ago this extension will give them access to work permits social security numbers and protection from deportation most importantly. secondly our proposal provides a three year extension of temporary protected status or t.p.s. this means that three hundred thousand immigrants whose protected status is facing expiration will now have three more years of certainty so that congress can work on a larger immigration deal which everybody wants republicans and democrats and our

farmers in vineyards won't be affected because lawful and regulated entry into our country will be easy and consistent. that is our plan border security daca t.p.s. and many other things straightforward fair reasonable and commonsense with lots of compromise senate majority leader mitch mcconnell has pledged to bring this bill to a vote this week in the united states senate our proposal is not intended to solve all of our immigration challenges this plan solves the immediate crisis and it is a horrible crisis it is a humanitarian crisis like we rarely see in our country and it provides humanitarian relief delivers real border security and

immediately reopens our federal government if we are successful in this effort then we can start the border project of remaking our immigration system for the twenty first century and watching present speaking from the white house talking about the government shutdown of a port a security threat an oval office stuff i thought only equal one team unfortunately immigration policy broken over a long time humanitarian and security crisis on the southern borders any mention that one in three when. it was sexually assaulted on the way up north and we're going to get more details now from correspondent rachel of eleven's rachel can you fill in the gaps want to else did the president say about the platen. share so it's been a really interesting afternoon president trump promised that he would make a major announcement today and then he started out with a naturalized nation ceremony which actually happened in the oval office before he

gave us this beach and now we're on day twenty nine of this shutdown and so some people thought that maybe trump would declare a national emergency in order to get the funding that he's looking for for border security but instead he decided to go the route of offering possibly some compromises to democrats and he's doing that by issuing out some more protections for darker recipients i believe he said up to three years and he believes that it will impact to seven hundred thousand darker recipients and will give them some protections to where they can actually find jobs and they don't have to worry about being deported from the united states ok rachel we will be going through the details of the speech later in the program thank you very much rachel levin thank you more news after the break we'll be back in a few minutes. seemed

wrong wrong wrong just don't call. me. yet to shape our disdain become educated and indeed trade equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. you want to make sure that the quality is not just a slogan of misery but it also is associated with the rise of the start of the believe how can you have a rise in the standard. by having. savings investing. roldan in increasing the size of the national park

so that you can distribute ball to everything. welcome back to the program an 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's been detained she's not been charged with a crime. you

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 on tuesday the only conversation they've had with her she told her daughter that she 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. said look children have been subpoenaed as well and they have no idea why you can imagine how worried they offer 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. be back in around thirty minutes with more updates but first time for a documentary. here on our international.
