5:01 am
of being a weapon of disinflation. he thinks should be trusted. in the bahamas. pigs become the latest tourist sensation on the. local businesses have been quick. today welcome with us the program. interior minister is being branded soft he claimed capitalists attacked staff at the paris hospital during a may day rally. videos and eyewitness accounts of the incident suggest they were actually taking cover from police firing tear gas let's go live to paris. for. this shot of the. two very different account somewhere what happened they can't
5:02 am
both be right what more do we know so far. well that's why the violence on may the first has been well documented in one of the most shocking stories that emerged from that violence was these allegations particularly by frances interior minister that actually some of the rioters and those protestors were trying to attack a hospital trying to attack the staff and trying to enter into that hospital this particular hospital was actually a surgical intensive care unit and there was descriptions of the patients inside saying that they were in quite a precarious situation many of them were into baited some of ventilated and that the staff had heroically try to fight off that attack of those protesters entering into the site this is what francis interior minister had to say about that event. from. the. hospital was attacked
5:03 am
it's medical staff were attacked and the police officers sent to protect them was hurt unshakable faith in our security services they are the pride of the republic. well that's his version of events but in a twist going on here social media has been flooded with videos showing exactly what happened on the ground in that hospital and actually what we've seen from those videos and social media some of which were actually taken by members of staff inside the hospital don't show what the interior minister said happened in fact what they show is that the c.r.s. the security forces with charging at protesters those protesters were fleeing from the security services and as such they were seeking refuge inside the hospital not just for that charge but also because of the tear gas that had been deployed in the
5:04 am
area so a very different version of events and as such opposition politicians here in france have described christopher cast in it as being a liar and some of them have even called for his resignation. shamelessly and manipulated the press to spread these lies you know who's you know given the facts he has no choice but to resign if it was a deliberate lie in turn and soley to do a judo most in turn issues social movement then the interior minister should be fired with are doing. well in other developments coming out of that may day protests in france it's also a message that this video showing the police officers actually picking up paving stones from the road and throwing that towards protesters now we know that this is a weapon of mass that the protesters have used for many months during the best protests and indeed on the may day but this is the first time in paris we've seen
5:05 am
evidence of the police using what essentially is an un sanctioned weapon against the protesters it begs the question whether the police are the ones who inciting the violence and instead of trying to control the situation they're actually pouring oil on the fire. certainly doesn't seem to be calming down any time soon does a dart is shot at the risk of their reporting from the french capital like for. a farcical scenes in the u.s. congress after the man who could traverse city redacted the report into alleged collusion between trump and russia failed to show up for a grilling attorney general william boss number hearing saying he'd already told senators all he has to say about his version of the report were democrat lawmakers who want to see the document in full theatrically placed bars name card in front of an empty chair congressman steve cohen then put a ceramic shit on the desk as a symbol of the attorney general's alleged cowardice and even tucked into some
5:06 am
k.f.c. not only do democrats want bars head to roll charges of contempt of congress party's caleb moore penn has this report. well a very short hearing on capitol hill as william barr the u.s. attorney general did not attend he did not show up for the hearing before the house judiciary committee that he was subpoenaed to testify before now representative gnabry who is the chair of the committee is now at this point considering bringing charges of contempt of congress against him for failing to testify when subpoenaed however republican legislators had a different opinion and argued that his testimony yesterday in the grilling he received from democrats was basically a circus and a charade and that he should not be obligated to continue going through that he has failed the men and women of the department of justice by placing the needs of the president over the ferry ministration of justice and yes we will have no choice but
5:07 am
to move quickly to hold you through the general in contempt if you store to negotiate in good faith mr barnes moment of accountability will come soon enough and i think that probably it can make one of the democrats scared of they don't know bill barr here today they've had the report they read it they don't like what's in it for the still in the circus continues over here the department of justice has made a less redacted version of bob miller's report available to top democrats but these top congressional democrats navl or palosi and others have refused to read it and said that instead they want the entire report revealed to a wider audience the chairman lee to go look it what the attorney general offered him it's pretty amazing to me he wants to go in executive session ask questions about it but he won't go read it now things escalated from there members of congress basically tried to be somewhat the actor cole a bucket of fried chicken was displayed in order to illustrate the argument that that he was that william barr was chicken or cowardly for not attending furthermore
5:08 am
they made a point of looking under the desk to make sure that william barr was not hiding under the desk in fear chicken bar should have shown up today and answered questions of why. socks look clean compared to this team it's a sad day in a bear democrats are considering contempt of congress charges against barr but republicans are saying he did the right thing and that this is simply a politically motivated investigation intended to undermine the u.s. president the trump russia story persists with more hearings more testimony and possible contempt charges for the u.s. attorney general the congress in its capacity here is not really investigating malfeasance by the attorney general which is their job is oversight they're actually having some perry mason like. miller to investigation which will gain them nothing and the bar i think just basically said look six hours of this is enough and done they didn't want him to show up they made it impossible for him to come so
5:09 am
that they could have the theater they had today it's about politics it's not about finding any wrongdoing that part is over now we have the political discussion the tiny tiny tiny portion that's not grand jury testimony that was actually redacted that's been made available to the committee and they don't want to look at it because as i said they want the theater that they don't want cooperation they're not looking for something bad they've decided there's something bad they make the bald assertion and that's good enough for them a controversy over the reports has seen hillary clinton the defeated twenty six the democratic presidential candidate speak her mind in an interview with m s n b c the former secretary of state of peace was unimpressed by its finding that the truck i'm painting didn't collude with russia talking back to that kemp bank clinton's you can be cool little foreign power to hijack the president. since russia is clearly backing republicans why don't we asked china to back us i hereby tonight ask china that's right and not only that china if you're listening why don't you
5:10 am
get trump's tax returns i'm sure our media would richly rewards you now according to the mother report that is not conspiracy because it's done right out in the open this woman just kid except that she lost her campaign all by yourself and just she's grasping and she just she's trying to be humorous she just doesn't understand humor but what she did wittingly or unwittingly is acknowledge that trump was joking she used to joke that to mimic the joke that he made nobody believe trump was serious and that somehow calling for russia to do it i mean what what next we're going to we're going to call out from the from the podium hey russia why don't you go up this country that's annoying to us and like that's going to actually happen i mean this is they contrived these bogeyman and that rush inclusion just hasn't worn out and they won't let it go.
5:11 am
a weapon of misinformation and a broad cost of noise has been portrayed by the u.k. foreign secretary during an event to celebrate totally freedom of the press jeremy haun also gave his views on where people should be getting their news from sport reports. the u.k.'s foreign secretary jeremy hunt has recently been championing press freedoms and to mock you necessaries world press freedom day he's delivered a speech in which he talks about the future event independent media and he mentioned r.t. spoiler alert he wasn't exactly complimentary about the channel's walk. to russia. truth is relative to. the kremlin official narrative jeremy hunt went on to cite the poisoning of the script pals that took place in souls last year saying that the kremlin came up with
5:12 am
forty different versions of what happened and then it's weapons of dissent from asia and presumably that's russian media then went on to broadcast those narratives to the world their weapons or this information from the best defense against those . independent. user he also announced that in july london will host the world bust summit on media freedom something tells me that r.t. isn't on the guest list. responding to this channel pointed out there are any of us for you don't want to talk in the media we spoke to journalist martin summers who told us that freedom of speech is an oft abused. one level they claim to be in favor of freedom of speech and another level they complain when people say things they don't want to hear it's the usual hypocrisy really isn't it i mean lots of people believe in freedom of speech as
5:13 am
long as they hear the things they want to hear a freedom of speech just to mean that everybody's allowed to say what they want to say and people can watch what they want and make up their own minds about what they think is happening the idea that you can control what other people say in this day and age is simply wrong and you know ultimately they're not going to get very far with this in the british government will probably conclude that there's not a lot they can do about this i think if the material you produce is hard quality then people are going to want to watch it. alleged long time collaborator of wiki leaks founder julian assange is facing trial in ecuador a court in the country has just dismissed an appeal by the cyber security expert who was arrested in quito last month on the very same day assad was taken into custody in the u.k. binny is a well known free software developer and previously activist he's reportedly worked with wiki leaks in the past when he was arrested by ecuadorian authours he's on charges of trying to hack computer systems in the country however his lawyers have
5:14 am
dismissed the claims as politically motivated. now and not ever and the investigations will be have been demonstrated what seems to be the easy. way to get it. where i mean what information we're going to show to the world but the decision made here was a political one though you said there were aspects of the hearing that i did not like for example the difference in time allocated we were granted just fifty minutes to talk with the prosecutors spoke for almost one hour and fifteen minutes more critically some of our arguments were dismissed by the judges. julian assange himself in a british prison after being sentenced to fifty weeks for violating his bail terms is also awaiting trial over a request for his extradition to the us where he's of course wanted for allegedly conspiring to hack into classified government files songs told in court on thursday that. voluntarily to america activist molly love who was also accused of hacking
5:15 am
into u.s. government computers told us a song would not be guaranteed if he's extradited. i think he's going to have an uphill struggle everyone has an uphill struggle under us actually they should request because it's a very unbalanced treaty so the u.s. doesn't have to provide any evidence they just have to have their paperwork in with the presumption he's able to it's extradition we managed to win there's a lot of campaigning and a lot of political support for him and support from journalist going to have a harder time because he's already out of this politically he's upset the establishment in the u.k. the establishment i would say is complicit in his persecution and we need to do everything we can as members of the public and supporters of this journalist or people involved in journalism to ensure that we do you know i allow the injustice and isolation to happen in. the bahamas as
