3 of the more people. interested always in the why. they should. italy's prime minister announces his resignation amid tensions in. the interior minister. conditions. u.s. attorney general william removes the acting director of prisons off the suicide of geoffrey epstein we discussed the conditions at the jail where epstein took his life with his former lawyer is fundamentally wrong with that is that. the u.s. confirms its 1st test of a cruise missile previously treaty signed between moscow and washington 3 decades ago.

a more than a year of tensions in italy's ruling coalition have come to a head with. offering his resignation it's off to the country's interior minister called for a vote of no confidence once again leaves italy in deep political crisis. well that resignation over its lease prime minister said because they had been widely speculated for the last few days and now it's happened to force plunging italy into a fresh political crisis in his resignation speech on cheese the often he noticed a blistering attack on the deputy prime minister and interior minister matusow beanie over the leak basically accusing him of doing everything to profiteer

himself and profiteers party but the government and he accused materials so binnie of being the one who's driving the government into crisis make it all up to the poll mantra debate will go to the president of the republic to officially communicate then to this government intended in my resignation this prime minister well salvini had cooled 2 weeks ago for snap elections amidst the summer holidays in italy saying that the coalition government as it stood was simply not workable saying that he just couldn't work under the constraints of that government. on the world of business of the man as those that produce things but it's really demands action so the only thing that italy cannot afford is to waste time anyone who is wasting time is doing so because they're afraid of losing this seat we asked that we vote as soon as possible the italians will choose a government the government a coalition government was formed back in june of 2018 and it was

a pretty even more pretty or coupling between the left wing party of the 5 star movement and the anti immigration anti establishment party over the league the 2 coming together to form that government back in june of last year following the elections in march since then what we have seen is a rather rocky road with the partners having several disagreements including recently about a rare willing. between france and italy what also has happened is this been a reversal in the fortunes of the 2 parties since those elections about 14 months ago back then we saw the 5 star movement taking the lion's share of the vote compared to the league and now it seems to flipped on its head with poll suggesting if a vote was held today that the league that's material being his party would take some 38 percent of the boat significantly higher than what the polls say would happen to the 5 star movement so what does this all mean for italy now well that's perhaps

the $1000000.00 question there is the chance that the feinstein movement lost in the biggest party could now go on to form another coalition government with of the parties leading the democratic party led by italy's former prime minister to you renzi and that was something that the material sylvie actually hinted about today when he launched his own attack in the senate we could also see a technocrat government or a national unity government or of course they could be those snap elections. let's discuss this live with for the record being the professor of political science at university of rhode thanks for joining us professor good to have you on the program what do you see happening now in the italian government what changes could we see internally and externally. professor can you hear me just doing another sound check what do you think is going

to happen now to be that i don't know if government what that means. i'll. let you know. ok it looks like we're having some technical problems there with august professor going to try to get back to you in just a few moments time when the engineers have a look at that. they do apologize to i guess we'll try to get the professor back to give our interview as soon as we can in the meantime the u.s. has conducted its 1st test of a 500 kilometer cruise missile a time previously banned for over 3 decades and now defunct arms control treaty with moscow and washington russia's foreign minister claimed the u.s. was preparing for the test long before the treaty expired in early august it should be known from october of last year when the u.s. national security advisor john bolton visited us he said that donald trump statement about washington's withdrawal from the treaty is not an invitation to dialogue but a final decision it appears that then or maybe even earlier us started preparing

the missile tests conducted on sunday and banned by the treaty the department of defense conducted to fly test of the conventionally configured ground launch cruise missile of the us west coast sunday the test missile exited its ground mobile launcher and accurately impacted this target after more than 500 commanders off light the intermediate range nuclear forces treaty was signed between the 2 rivaling superpowers in the cold war in 1970 and burned certain types of short and mid range missiles expired on the 2nd of august with donald trump saying he had no willingness to extend it due to alleged violations by the kremlin russia denied the claims and repeatedly invited washington for talks but some parts of the us establishment weren't welcoming the idea. the united states must regain the strategic advantage by expediting the development and deployment of a new generation of ground launched missiles now the department of defense will be

able to conduct those precision development activities bento to an f. 3 t. so the department of defense will still have some building though system they couldn't be full united states has said that this is not nuclear capable and the united states is planning for another test probably in november this one and somewhere between 508000 kilometers a range but the one that they're testing in november it's miscreants 300-4000 kilometers or range that's another one this year is a very unfortunate moves that have been going on for the past couple years at least well we can actually dated back to 2001 with the announcement that the u.s. is going to clarify the a.b.m. treaty there's only one major nonproliferation treaty remaining the new start treaty which ends and 2021 and the united states has already indicated that it will almost certainly pull out of that one also or not when they do that one which means

we are on the verge of nuclear anarchy. the u.s. attorney general william barr has removed the acting director of u.s. prisons from his post off to the recent death of disgraced millionaire geoffrey epstein the summer like this of praise the decision amid concerns over the conditions a jail where he took his own life. but obscene was convicted of paedophilia back in 2007 at the time he was sentenced to 30 months in prison that was part of the deal signed by then u.s. attorney alexander across the epstein had many friends in high places among them donald trump bill clinton and prince andrew now at the time of his death the financier was awaiting trial for sex trafficking offenses he was being held at a facility reserved for the most dangerous criminals el chapo the drug baron just one of them epstein and been taken off suicide watch that's the spite having made a recent attempt on his own life and we spoke to his former lawyer mark furnish he says conditions at the jail may have pushed him to the edge. the

conditions to which he was subjected would buckle even the knees of the strongest among us it's this is one of the toughest federal pretrial detention facilities in the country and the conditions are inhumane epstein was subjected to conditions that were similar to those of guzman but not remotely justified by his character or what he was accused of because he was not. a violent individual like chapman chapo was alleged to have been and he's not a guy who has escaped from prior facilities like guzman was alleged to have done so one would be comparing apples and oranges to liken the 2 to each other but yet their conditions of confinement were strikingly similar and there's something fundamentally wrong with that and what's fundamentally wrong with that is that geoffrey abstain did not belong in that facility to begin with. just my own

personal opinion it wouldn't surprise me to learn of anything that might have happened with jeffrey epstein and in my view at that in that facility the real story the real miracle is that we don't hear about these sort of things more about murdered pretrial detainees or suicidal pretrial detainees because the facility. is barbaric and it's a whole. it's like i don't use the word lightly lightly but it's sort of like an american go log for people who have not yet been convicted of anything so the real shock here is that we don't hear about deaths at pretrial oppressive onerous pretrial detention facilities like the m.c.c. more often. any of us could one day find ourselves rightly or wrongly on on the. business and of of the united states department of justice and nobody

nobody said should be subjected to the conditions that epstein was exposed to for many reasons one of which is it compromises your mental and physical functioning and you can't assist adequately in preparing your own defense and it crushes people we don't really know what happened to mr epstein but but certainly i believe personally that being a locked in a facility like that under extraordinary conditions would logically wreak havoc with one's mind and body so i certainly i certainly believe that they personally that they could have played a role absolutely i mean i think we would be foolish to to deny that but again one doesn't want to treat the symptom while ignoring the disease and the disease is. how people are routinely denied bail with

a shocking ease given the laws that congress passed allowing prosecutors and judge to do that abstain did not belong locked up pending trial and he didn't belong in a hellhole like that before he had been convicted about anything. social media platforms twitter and facebook say they've blocked a number of chinese accounts for trying to undermine the protests in hong kong. we are disclosing a significant stayed back to informational parishioners focused on the situation hong kong this disclosure consists of 936 a cancer vegetating from within the people's republic of china over all these accounts were deliberately and specifically attempting to sow political discord in hong kong including undermining the legitimacy and political positions of the protest movement on the ground we removed 7 pages 3 groups and 5 facebook accounts involved in coordinated in authentic behavior as part of a small network that originated in china and focused on hong kong. the protest

movement in hong kong started back in june over drof legislation allowing its tradition of suspects to mainland china demonstrations have since brought into other political issues over the past 11 weeks rallies have frequently turned violent with police using tear gas and rubber bullets against protests this little corner takes a closer look at what's behind the protests. freedom fair elections democracy it's words like these you'll find throughout the western media coverage of the protests in hong kong but the reality of it is all much more complicated was. it's not just politics motivating the violence racial slurs against people from mainland china can be heard throughout the crowds and seen graffitied on official buildings protesters have also been seen brandishing the infamously racist pepe the

frog me an internet hate symbol and this is enough phobic violence has even spilled over to protests in other countries. was. this anti china extremism comes from a concept called hong kong exceptionalism the idea that hong kong has more in common with the west than with china because of its british colonial past and that ideologies it here in sa are not exactly shy about their love for all things anti china 6 6. despite all the american flags and anthem singing donald trump says he had no idea why protests were being blamed on the u.s. but his cabinet might have an explanation since they've been meeting with one of the opposition's main icons jimmy lie i'm hit. appreciation

lies a self-made billionaire who's made a huge mark on hong kong's opposition movement he landed himself in hot water with beijing back in 2012 when his newspaper published an ad portraying pregnant chinese women as locusts and he's very open about his feelings for american values we need to know that america is behind us by backing our samaritans sharing moral authority because we are the only place in china which shares your values and is fighting the same battle you have with china but there's another younger and not so rich rebel leader at play here too joshua wong a fresh 22 year old face of revolution a face loved in many corridors of washington to marco rubio was so in all he nominated wong for a nobel peace prize leave it to washington to nominate a leader of violent protests for peace when it suits him agenda the us is very determinately supporting these protesters every arm of the corporate media.

radio television social media is is raising them and always referring to them as pro-democracy protesters where they're not at all this has nothing to do with democracy and they are determined to sabotage in every way that they can any normal relations between china with hong kong and it is creating intentionally a great deal of confusion among young people who have been pulled into this against their own interests we asked the u.s. state department and leaders of the hong kong protest movement to comment on the links we highlighted so far would not receive the response the tensions between beijing and washington are also high over another part of china taiwan abridging is furious the trumpet ministrations approved the sale of fatah jets to the island and is warning it will take action if the deal goes ahead. china has made numerous

solemn representation to the u.s. on the sale of the f. 16 v. jets to taiwan the u.s. just about all the consequences triggered by the sale it's $8000000000.00 u.s. dollars it's a lot of money that's a lot of jobs and we know they're going to use these f. $16.00 responsibly the deal still needs to be approved by the u.s. senate if it goes through it will be the 1st sale of f. 16 fighters to taiwan since the 1992 the previous requests for jets by taiwan were rejected by the obama administration last month the u.s. state department approved the nother arms deal with taiwan includes 108 tanks and more than $200.00 missiles the deal is worth $2200000000.00 at a time beijing also accused the u.s. of meddling saying it would cut ties with every american company involved in that deal with taiwan is officially recognized by only 18 countries the u.s. though has not officially been a supporter of the islands military since the ninety's which i want of course sees taiwan as part of its territory china expert i will ease says beijing will point

the finger at washington if tensions escalate. there is some unity in washington to go hard on china and some of these folks who are elected they're basically elected with the same funding for the people who got people into the trumpet midst gratian and who fund the think tanks in washington and so it's all basically representing the same elite interests china sees this as an aggressive move by the u.s. to try to provoke them into war the chinese basically up and say that the u.s. is going to be at fault here because they're not being consistent and not honoring the promises that were made in previous administrations and so this big departure is going to be on the u.s. and that's where they want to place the blame here if there is any military escalation that happens. of the headlines what's the media of warning russian

radiation monitoring stations of full of going to explosion earlier this month for the military sought in the country's north dakota has been digging deeper into the story. 2 russian radiation money touring stations have resumed operation and this news follows a number of alarming reports that were made earlier by a number of foreign news media claiming that several russian radiation money touring stations went offline allegedly after a nuclear accident that happened in russia north on august 8th now the wall street journal wrote that 4 stations that were designed to detect nuclear radiation all went silent right after the blast the article raised concerns that russia was attempting to conceal evidence from the explosion at a missile test site the wall street journal quoted. both the executive director of the comprehensive nuclear attack. and we receive data from monitoring stations

around the world now he per jack to the potential path of the plume from the explosion and posted it on his twitter feed now right after the accident russia sends special access very to the sun to monitor the situation and just yesterday the country's president vladimir putin said that there was no threat of a radiation leak. but there is new and there's new spike in british and levels experts including independent ones are monitoring the situation i receive reports from both military and civilian specialists and there's no significant change there but we are still taking precautionary measures to avoid any surprises. me the explosion off a missile and then with an eyes a top power source killed 5 people and injured and now the 3 now right after the accidents there were indeed very few details available on what happened and that

mostly fuel the western tabloids so with the rumors of a true novel like disaster whispers radiation leak also appearing in the media with sound. even writing about the number of the disease to being higher now later the russian nuclear agency issued a report revealing that the accident happened on a c platform after a series of trials and that there was no threat of a radiation leak. but u.s. democratic lawmakers apologized after pictures showing the mock assassination of president trump went viral illinois state senator martin sunday overall says an entertainment firm hired for one of his fundraiser rights was behind them and the picture you can see here was posted online by the senator's supporters who were at the fund raising event as well in the photos a man is seen pointing a gun at another person wearing a trump mask at the post has provoked quite an outcry the apology from senator

sanders all for the detestable pictures from his event depicting the cessation of president trump is too little too late it's inexcusable for an elected official to allow the promotion of violence in any way if the individual pictured is a star for all volunteer they should be terminated immediately martin some do evil in illinois is further proof it is the democrats who are inciting violence i have yet to see a republican promote such violence every democrat should be asked if they support to disavow this idiot or all direct threat the reactionary time school of i don't believe the violent behavior has become increasingly acceptable of young some parts of the left. well unfortunately the rhetoric from the liberal left has continued to get more and more violent and this is becoming increasingly accepted by the left in the mainstream media continues to blast this message oh we're seeing an increase in violent behavior from the left people complain about supposedly negative you know

divisive rhetoric from president trump but i've never seen a president from stage a mock assassination of any of his democratic opponent what happens is it has the potential to radicalize the weak minded you know today's assassinations become tomorrow's assassination attempt. 30 children in the south of france have been dogging with also poisoning off the flood back in october were these toxic mud from a closed off gold mine parents more children could be affected. in october 28th away flooded the entire school courtyard and carried away all the

greetings and sally you taishan. with the tragic mass shootings in ohio and texas still hanging heavy in the summer air the united states has been struggling to find answers birds epidemic issues with gun violence and while many a challenger for the top political seat in the land has sounded off on mass shootings while on the 2020 campaign trail few of these presidential candidates or the cable television pundits the fall of them have touched on a very troubling side to the story of violence through god and that is gun violence perpetrated by u.s. police officers as independent writer and researcher alabaster observes mass shootings have taken 339 people's lives since 2015 but within the same time period police who are responsible for enforcing gun laws have shot and killed 4355 people. percentage wise that works out to 12100 percent more people being killed by cops with guns than mass shooters.

talk about you're uncomfortable truths my friends you see are our news media and politicians are very quick to jump into that spotlight and take photos with the orphaned and injured when it comes to dealing with the aftermath of mass shootings more comes to the thin blue line. and there are shootings. not so much stop police terror project d.c.'s in the tasse a nap or explain the truth out a large swathe of people in our nation don't want to reckon with the horrors police have caused in communities of color because to do this would call into question the entire way we have viewed these systems and their roles in our society you see it seems easier to go after the guy or the mental health of the perpetrator when that monster happens to be a civilian but but when the monster is using a gun that was purchased by the state while wearing a badge. they don't really go after that one so today let's delve into the side of

the gun violence debate that no one wants to talk about as we start watching the homes. it looks like. it's like. what they like you know that i got. this. while they were going to watching the hawks i am tyrrel and i'm tapping. into it's wild when you look at the actual number and then the. every hit every light matter is every one of these people whether you're a cop or you're a sim villian walking down the street these lives actually do matter and part of their.
