10:03 pm
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
10:04 pm
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
10:05 pm
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. all right just a word on the latest developments since we've heard from caleb the white house has it now confirmed it will approve the release of the whistleblower complaint by the end of the week that's after it has a redaction process declassification process as well that's according to a senior administration official that's after trump also said before that he was releasing the full transcript of the phone call with of the ukraine leader zielinski on wednesday now the whistleblower wants to testify before the house intelligence committee that's according to chairman adam shift how to develop a political commentator john really thinks pelosi is merely trying to score
10:06 pm
political points. they're going to look really silly over this and i think they're doing this to run interference on a major announcement today that hasn't become really public that michael flynn general flynn's business partner was exonerated today by a judge i think they're covering up that news because it it it impugns the entire mueller investigation certainly taking risk and she's caught between a rock and a hard place as we say in the u.s. she's she's stuck between the hard left flank of her party that wants to take extreme measures and block the president and obstruct him any way they can and the american people who think that this makes no sense so she's walking a fine line with this impeachment inquiry a proper process would have the house vote. on a recorded vote but they want to impeach the president and move forward with that
10:07 pm
inquiry but this is she's trying to have it both ways she's trying to satisfy the left flank and not offend the american people are just not bought in that we need to be impeaching the president because he's nothing impeachable. but at the u.n. general assembly is now under way in new york but not everyone got their ringside seat as russia's foreign ministry said that 10 members of its delegation were not granted u.s. reeses ahead of the session the kremlin called movie provocation which warrants a tough response or 2 earlier joined my colleague you know neal in the studio with details. oh moscow is absolutely furious because if you think about that's a huge thing. constant in kasich of russia's prominent politician and diploma a term and all of the foreign affairs committee of the upper term for 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
10:08 pm
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 thing 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 delegations i mean they arrived this morning in 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 isn't the alchemy aspect of this health situation is that these people were not not to fight 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 and calls it
10:09 pm
a provocation this is absolutely unprecedented situation the little states of america does not have to determine who. to participate and who is not to participate. the united nations. will be responded to by the russians no doubt about it so you can see is very angry it's not exactly clear what marriage is a constant was talking about what we heard from russian president. spokes person 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
10:10 pm
example of huge disrespect from the americans 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 word 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. 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 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 teheran that several members of the rat in delegation were
10:11 pm
north american so we know that the iranian leader mr heinie and 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 is cut by half i mean of course you work is a factor and your expectations a lawyer and that doesn't sound fair. for the 1st day of high level debate the u.n. general assembly the u.s. president. to the stage to make a wide ranging address donald trump's speech touched upon issues including global trade of the crisis in the persian gulf nuclear proliferation and democracy promotion among the range of topics donald trump touched upon during his speech in new york he did not let the escalating tensions between washington and tehran slip by u.s. president condemned iranian leaders for a quote blood lust which he says is isolating the country. all nations have
10:12 pm
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 commitment then negotiations can start again.
10:13 pm
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 a 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. britain's highest court has dealt an unprecedented legal defeat to the prime minister with judges unanimously ruling that boris johnson's decision to suspend parliament earlier this month was on lawful the prime minister's advice to her majesty was unlawful void and have no effect. this means that the order in council
10:14 pm
which led was also a little full void and of no effect and should be quashed the preservation was also void and of no effect parliament has not been for wrote again it 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 on october 31st with or without a deal a scottish court later will then move on law for 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 that he intends to carry on with brags that regardless is that still his position. that's why this is a vote it did we will respect and we respect the judicial process i have to say i strongly disagree with what the justices who thought and i don't think that.
10:15 pm
it's right but the only support 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 judicial coup where our committee of 11 lawyers have forced their way in to the british political system by judgment would be that the public will see all of this today as for the evidence of the establishment's the very richest the very most powerful being determined to do anything that they can including dragging
10:16 pm
the queen into such an imbroglio in order to stop breaks it and the danger for the opposition is that people will think well at least boris johnson is 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 and spreading this information generate millions of dollars in online advertising revenue from well known brands this according to a new study by british organization the global dis information index the domains it cited include those peddling conspiracy theories pseudo science but also a conservative web site and of course our team. takes a closer look at who is behind the study. in simple terms everything's become
