i. feel. like. with ukraine. today i'm announcing the house of representatives. violating its international. several members of the russian delegation to the u.n. general assembly.

tomorrow. are broadcasting live from our studios in moscow. international certainly glad you're with us let's 1st go to our continuing breaking story out of washington where democratic house speaker nancy pelosi has announced a formal impeachment inquiry against president correspondent has more. ansible o.c. the speaker of the u.s. house of representatives has come forward to announce the formation of a formal impeachment inquiry into donald trump nancy pelosi argues that donald

trump has seriously violated the u.s. constitution this relates to a phone call and which donald trump was speaking to the ukrainian president and in the conversation he threatened to withhold over $400000000.00 of military aid from ukraine and he urged the ukrainian leader to launch an investigation into joe biden and his son hunter biden in their business dealings in the country this is nancy pelosi announcing the launching of a formal inquiry of impeachment into donald trump this week the president has admitted to asking the president ukraine to take actions which would benefit him politically the action of the trial the actions of the trump presidency revealing dishonorable fact of the president's betrayal of his oath of office betrayal of our national security and betrayal of the integrity of our elections therefore today i'm announcing the house of representatives moving forward with an official

impeachment inquiry now kevin mccarthy who represents the republican minority in the u.s. house of representatives has basically disagreed with nancy pelosi as move and said that nothing new will come about as a result of today's announcement this is the republican leader speaker pelosi happens to be the speaker of this house but she does not speak for america when it comes to this issue she cannot decide unilaterally what happens here. they have been investigating this president before he even got elected they have voted 3 times on impeachment on this floor twice they voted before one word the mall report came back what she said today made no difference of what's been going on it's no different than what natalie has been trying to do now an unnamed. blower is the source for the information regarding what donald trump is alleged to have said in this phone call an unnamed whistleblower who the identity of which has not yet been revealed apparently found out about donald trump's conversation with the ukrainian

leader and he then brought it to the attention of the office of the director of national intelligence now that is the procedure laid out in u.s. law to bring such a complaint to the oh d.n.i. now when the odeon i heard about the complaint they deemed unworthy to bring it to the u.s. congress so now from what we understand democratic leaders have been in touch with this unnamed whistleblower and they wish to now launch a formal impeachment inquiry based on what this unnamed whistleblower has reported about the conversation now donald trump has spoken up on social media and called this a witch hunt and trump is threatening and plans fully to release the transcript of his conversation with the ukrainian leader that seems to be the source of the controversy he says he will shortly be making that full conversation a full transcript of that conversation of vailable to the public that will come within the next day so folks are waiting to see what what will be revealed when the

full conversation is made public but at the moment we do understand that the u.s. house of representatives will be moving ahead with a formal impeachment inquiry into the president of the united states to determine whether or not to hold an impeachment trial and possibly remove him from the office of the presidency. joining me now live is former u.s. diplomat jim jim we're talking in the sound check that this is going to be incredibly interesting how the very least we use different terms there but so how do you think republicans are going to react to this news we already have seen the. senate majority leader mitch mcconnell he's kind of gotten on board a little bit with this close he seems to finally be putting some weight behind house democrats impeachment talk or do we got. well schon when the democrats took control of the house of reprehensible as in last year's election one of the 1st things i said was that trump is almost certainly going to be

impeached it was a question of when he would be impeached over what he would be impeached but no question that in my mind that the democrats would eventually impeach him all they needed to find was the right issue that they thought would have some legs and move forward that's what they're doing now this will take several months they will try to find some other dirt on him something to do with the real estate or his taxes or women or whatever they could find so they have articles and pietschmann that they think will have some legs to it and i think that it's not so much what kevin mccarthy of the house republicans say it's what the senate republicans say because that's where the conviction would have to be i think was very telling that when this was asked this whole matter was raised to mitt romney the other day he basically indicated well i guess that's up for the house to decide almost playing all those leading the house toward an impeachment vote so i think of this is this is a very serious matter ok so president trump already said before palosi is announcement

that he would release the full transcript of his call with ukrainian president selenski on wednesday there's been an update just in the past 30 minutes about that that the white house is planning to release the entire whistle blowers complaint and the transcript of the call was plus he taking a risk by making this a formal inquiry beforehand what if there's nothing inappropriate that they can find in the call or in the complaint even though it is believed that the complaint shows an established pattern of behavior. well i think what speaker pelosi made clear today is that the defense from the white house that there was no quid pro quo between holding up the money and investigating the 100 biden's shenanigans in ukraine is not what they're going to focus their impeachment vote on or their inquiry on but rather the mere fact that too. raise the question of the hunter biden and the ukrainians looked into it is itself sufficient to make these

accusations against him the fact that he was getting a foreign government to help him against to divest a component opponent is itself arguably an impeachable offense it doesn't even matter whether there was an implied or explicit threat to withhold ukraine's money of course ironically let's remember that joe biden is on the record i mean there are clips you could watch of his saying in so many words that he held up ukraine's money until they fired prosecutor shoket who is looking into the breeze book company and hunter by activities i mean he was quite explicit that while as vice president he held up money for ukraine to basically protect his son so if we go back to the complaint meanwhile the u.s. senate i live to do this earlier with mitch mcconnell kind of getting on board if you will but. the senate has unanimously called for the justice department's inspector general to release the whistleblower complaint which trump alleges it violates the law in excuse me and i got mixed up

a little bit there it alleges that trump violated the law in the call with zelinsky regardless of quid pro quo as you were mentioning there so what could we learn from this document and will the trumpet ministration comply in full they said they will but will they. i think they likely will because i think they realize that unless they basically make as much disclosure as possible they're going to have even more problems with some of the republicans and that remember that's where their focus they need i forget the exact number of 12 or 15 republicans in the senate did not to defect to convict the president if and when as i believe when he was impeached so i think that's really where their focus is so they're going want to show look we have nothing to hide here the president didn't do anything wrong and then they will argue over whether simply raising the question of hunter biden is itself an offense . or that there had to be something like a quid pro quo just sort of reminds me of what all of tribes defenders kept saying there was no collusion there was no collusion but at the same time it became

established a fact for everybody that the russians tried to interfere in our lection i think that's sort of what we're going on here is that there was no quid pro quo yeah but you sought the help of a foreign government that should be enough to get rid of you right very interesting to hear thoughts as always jim former u.s. diplomat someone who always bring something new to the table thanks for being with us here on our to international. thank you. by the u.n. general assembly is underway in new york but not everybody got their ringside seat russia's foreign minister has said that 10 members of his delegation were not granted to us in visas ahead of the session the kremlin called the move a provocation which warrants a tough response joined you know in the studio earlier with details. oh moscow's absolutely furious because if you think about it that's a huge thing. constant kasich of russia's prominent politician and did they term and all of the foreign affairs committee of the upper term or the russian parliament said he's not going to attend the un general assembly that is open these

days in new york because of visa issues and he wasn't actually denied american visa but what basically happened as far as we understand is that his application didn't go through and he was not to fight about that very very last moment and he failed to protect american visa on time it doesn't sound like anything criminal he can still reapply but clearly there is no time enough. so he's going to miss the discussions he were planning to participate in and the thinking is that he was not the only one to put in this unpleasant situation we know that at least 8 other members of the russian delegation's i mean they arrived this morning in one of moscow airports with bags with tickets to new york with plans to participate in important debates and they expected their passports with american visas to be delivered to the airport from the u.s. embassy this is normal procedure but it never happened so this is an ugly aspect of this health situation is that these people were not naughty fied about what's going

on and the only learned about that very last moment and the u.s. side says talks about some technical problems but constant in kosovo calls the provocation this is absolutely unprecedented situation the little states of america does not have to determine to decide who. to participate and who is not to participate. the united nations. will be responded to by the russians no doubt about it you can see he is very angry it's not exactly clear what measures across and was talking about what we heard from russian president. spokesperson also that there will be response from the crowd when there is a furious reaction from the russian foreign ministry as well we know that the us deputy ambassador has been summoned to the foreign ministry here in moscow over

some pleasant situation maybe we can expect some clarification later on and we heard from the foreign ministry spokes person. i mean she described it as an example of huge disrespect from the american side let's take a listen documents that we handed over for process in earlier a couple of months before departure were returned to us with the wording they have been handed in early it's an outrageous example of disrespect by the u.s. to u.n. members as well as an example of failure to fulfill obligation as the host country of the world are going. well good thing is that we hear that said ok lavrov russia's foreign minister who is leading the russian delegation that the u.n. general assembly is going to address this issue at his meeting with. his secretary of state maybe there will be some explanations. are there any other cases though when when foreign delegations have problems entering the u.s.

oh yeah of course you have those thoughts for the 1st time and even during the 74th session we heard from tester and several members of the rat in delegation were north american so we know that the iranian leader mr heinie and to the foreign minister mr is going to attend general assembly there delegation is dramatically cut and if you are going to yeah but i mean if you think about it that's a huge thing because the u.n. general assembly is an annual event it's a huge platform and if you do a geisha it's cut by have i mean of course your work is a fact and your expectations a lawyer and that doesn't sound fair. on the 1st day of the high level debate at the u.n. general assembly the u.s. president took to the stage to make a wide ranging address donald trump's speech touched upon issues including global trade crisis in the persian gulf nuclear proliferation and of democracy promotion among the range of topics donald trump touched upon during his speech in new york

he didn't lead to the escalating tensions between washington and tehran slip by the u.s. president condemned to iranian leaders for a quote blood lust which he says is isolating the country. all nations have a duty to act. no responsible government should subsidize iran's bloodlust. as long as iran's menacing behavior continues sanctions will not be lifted they will be tightened. iran's leaders will have turned a proud nation into just another cautionary tale. of what happens when a ruling class abandons its people and embarks on a crusade for personal power. and riches the iranians don't really take anything that trump says about its evilness very seriously but with when it

comes to negotiations iranians are saying that look we have negotiated with the united states the iranians have said repeatedly that if trump goes back to the nuclear deal if he abides by us commitments then negotiations can start again. trump was at the negotiating table rex tillerson was at the negotiating table they left the negotiating table so it's for them to come back and those are the conditions they have to accept their own commitments it's very hard for the americans support any more sanctions on iran because there's nothing really left to sanction there's a joke going around in iran that where people say i have a cousin somewhere in some village that hasn't been sanctioned yet so all these sanctions are rip repetition of older sanctions the central bank has been sanctions recently but it was already sanctioned before so nothing really new is happening u.k. supreme court has issued a dramatic ruling reversing prime minister johnson's suspension of parliament more on that after a short break this is march international. the

world is driven by dreamers shaped by the one percent of those great. no dairy thinks. we dare to ask. wrong and this is when the bank solvent and folks are concerned about their money so they kind of withdraw the money so here you have one of the foundation blocks of

the global derivatives market the repo market and it's being bailed out every day by $75000000000.00 a day so it's the biggest battle up per day for our never seen a bail up on an hourly basis this big average history. and what mechanisms are to international now britain's highest court has dealt an unprecedented illegal defeated to the prime minister with judges unanimously ruling that boris johnson's decision to suspend parliament earlier this month was unlawful the prime minister's advice to her majesty was unlawful void of no effect this means that the order in council to which lead was also a little full void and of no effect and should be quashed the probation was also void and of no effect parliament has not been roped. amid

howls of discontent from m.p.'s and the public the prime minister suspended parliament at the beginning of september for 5 weeks it was widely seen as a move to prevent m.p.'s from scrutinizing his plan to exit the european union october 31st with or without a deal a scottish court later ruled the move i'm awful now the highest court in the land agrees it means parliament can now sit again and the commons speaker says it will convene on wednesday morning boris johnson is now returning early from the un saying he intends to carry on with us this is a vote it did we will respect we respect the judicial process i have to say i strongly disagree with what the justices who thought and i don't think that. it's right but the basic point please we get home and leave a brick sit on october 31st. former british m.p.

george galloway believes that while m.p.'s will celebrate the court's decision voters might think differently. our service dead in the water it's in the water i'm not sure of it's waving or drowning but it certainly father complicates the british position in the run up to halloween when we're supposed to be leaving the european union and of course was what the whole thing was about this is a coup a judicial coup where our committee of 11 lawyers have forced their way in to the british political system my judgment would be that the public will see all of this today for the evidence of the as stuff bush munt the very richest the very most powerful being determined to do anything that they can including dragging the queen's into such on imbroglio in order to stop breaks it and the danger for the opposition is that people will think well at least boris johnson's trying to

implement a decision made by 17 and a half 1000000 british people the biggest number ever to vote for anyone or anything in our entire history and that's the danger that when the election comes they'll be a backlash against the establishment and boris johnson will be the beneficiary of it. websites are spreading disinformation generate millions of dollars in online advertising revenue from well known brands this according to a new study by british organisation in the global dissent from ation index the domains it cited include those peddling conspiracy theories pseudo science but also a conservative website and of course r.t. but i've got to have takes a closer look at who is behind study. in simple terms everything's become automated even the ads you place online they are placed by algorithms you never know what sites will end up on and the algorithms can tell about the good websites with real

and honest news and the bad websites with fake news and stuff the good guys don't agree with the problem is the real journalists are incensed that they aren't getting enough of your money global dissin from ation index the g.d. i estimates that a quarter $1000000000.00 is paid annually to our database of $20000.00 dissin from ation sites by ad tech companies placing adverts for many well known brands these brands include household names that many of us know already and honda american airlines and office max among others well loud sounds like a catastrophe imagine buoying being advertised on a flat earth or website or a construction company being advertised on a 911 truth as blog it's the kind of crazy websites the report means right the

sites in our sample include addicting info dot com r t v dot com twitchy dot com and 0 hedge dot com. oh all of your virtues this information websites twitchy fairly conservative gig with up many more mistakes or fake news than c.n.n. or the new york times 0 hedge much the same and of course us where would any list be without r t but enough about us that see the judges global this information index coalition the governments business and civil society based on neutrality independence and transparency. independence or so who funds them a few non-profits and well there it is the ukase foreign office the one that

organized journalists to attack british politicians advocated invading iraq on a false premise constantly say to people there are decisions that to be made in relation to iraq at all but the reason no doubt that iraq poses a threat in respect of weapons of mass destruction and there is no doubt that this issue is an issue that should be dealt with but state funding aside the advisory panel is a wonder to an apple bomb married to a former polish foreign minister noted for his anti russian stunts she herself prominent peddler of the trump russian collusion story which was all fake in seeking russian support not only to become president but also to make money even as he launched his presidential campaign he hoped to receive a major influx of money from a proposed trump tower in moscow so an independent organization who funded by a foreign ministry the noted peddler of conspiracy theories helping to run it and

to think it's these people who are angry that they don't get enough of your money make no mistake. once they nail down an algorithm to do the censorship for them you'll never be misinformed again or well hear a different opinion and if it does for me i'll be back in about 35 minutes with another question is this is art international. when lawmakers manufacture consensus instant of public wealth. when the ruling classes protect themselves. when the financial merry go round lifts and we the one percent. it's time

to ignore middle of the room signals. to leave the room for the real news is. this is a story about what happens auster a stray bullet kills a young girl in the streets. what happens to her family and daughters in florida another mother daughter is very innocent and terry it is meaning messes with your head what happens to the community the public was screaming for a scapegoat the police needed a scapegoat so why not choose a 19 year old black kid with a criminal record who better to pen this on than him and what happens in court be the. shock shock as far as society we feel. we don't know still just screwed up on. that end of this trial

unfortunately due to this still not know childress. what politicians do something. they put themselves on the line and they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president for injury. or somehow want to. have to go right to the press this is what before 3 in the morning can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters in the house.

hello and welcome to cross talk where all things are considered peter lavelle the democrats want to recapture the white house in a bad way their hatred of trump with the help of the liberal mainstream media has witnessed presidential candidates say some of the most extraordinary things but there is nothing extraordinary about their hatred of the president the question is do they have ideas to win in 2020. across talking democrats i'm joined by my guest kevin chavez in washington he is managing partner of the chavez group as well as former president of d.c. young democrats here in moscow we have graham elwood he is

a regular on the door show as well as host of the political lanty on you tube also in moscow we were joined by alex christopher he is the director and writer for the duran dot com all right gentlemen cross-like rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i always appreciate kevin you're representing the democrats in this part of this program so welcome as i said in my introduction it's very short and very straight and straightforward i mean other than the hatred of the current president donald trump in the white house what do the democrats actually really have because if you've been watching the presidential debates it seems to me in my opinion they're kind of out of step with the general public and the electorate i mean it's really a lunge to the left. maybe i'm wrong go ahead kevin well there has been for a lot a can of this there have been trying to lunge to the left as you put it but let's keep in mind of course president trump is one of the most unpopular presidents we've had with an approval rating consistently in the low forty's. disapproval rating is consistently in the low fifty's and among independents his approval

rating is about $38.00 or 39 percent so this dislike for donald trump is not just limited to democrats or those running for president so that's why electability has been an important topic but i think the other topic and i'm sure will talk about it more is is health care what will happen with health care which plan will be able to coalesce democrats to support one person will it be the bernie sanders medicare for all where you eliminate premiums but taxes may go up or is it joe biden's plan which says hey let's allow people to keep private insurance but we add a public option i think that will be the the main issue and has consistently at least in polls seems to be the main issue other than electability argument around defeating trump ok will graham's a guy if i can glean from what kevin said it's so when what corporatists version of medicare is going to be presented to the american people because that's what it sounds like it's it seems to me that you know even though there's a lunge to the left it's still very very this spectrum of what is acceptable now is

what plan where.
