tomorrow to take. studio. have you with us and we start with breaking news. right out of washington where democrats. speaker nancy pelosi has announced a formal impeachment inquiry against the president our u.s. correspondent. 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 and simple o.c. 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 to crane to take actions which would benefit him politically the action of the trial the actions of the trump presidency 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 president saying this is a fast developing story here some latest developments as we've heard from kill of the white house have now confirmed that it will approve the release of the full whistleblower complaint by the end of the week actually i said fold that's actually after a redaction process is reviewed this is according to a senior administration official that's also after trump said that he would release the full transcript of his phone call with the ukrainian leader on wednesday another whistleblower wants to testify before the house intelligence committee this according to chairman adam schiff. political commentator john william allowed in the think so palosi is merely trying to score 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 she is certainly taking a 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 most. the on a recorded vote that they want to impeach the president and move forward with that inquiry but this 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 the. u.n. general assembly is underway in new york but not everyone got their ringside seat russia's foreign ministry has said that 10 members of its delegation were not granted u.s. visas ahead of the session of the kremlin called the move a provocation which warrants a tough response artie's memory of an ocean and earlier joined my colleague you know neal in the studio with more. oh moscow is absolutely furious because if you think about it that's a huge thing. constantine kasich of russia's prominent politician and diplomacy they term and all of the foreign affairs committee of the upper term for the russian parliament said he's not going to attend the u.n. 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 in our face that we're being here 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 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 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 a 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 in the. united nations. will be responded to by the russians no doubt about it so you can see he is very angry it's not exactly clear what measures constant 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 spokesperson. i mean she described it as an example of huge disrespect from the americans let's take a listen documents that we handed over for pro sassoon 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 russians allegation 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 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 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 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 high level debate to have the u.n. general assembly the u.s. president took to the stage to make a wide ranging address and donald trump speech touched upon issues including global trade of the crisis in the persian gulf nuclear proliferation and of democracy promotion among the range of topics donald trump touched upon and during his speech in new york he didn't let the escalating tensions between washington and tehran slip by the u.s. president condemned iranian leaders for a quote blood lust which he says is isolated from country. all nations have

a duty to. know 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.

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 american 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 sanctioned 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 awful the prime minister's advice to her majesty was unlawful void and of no effect. this means that the order in council to which it led 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 pretty wrote again delivering on the problem a howls of a discontent from m.p.'s and the public the prime minister just 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 will later wall the move unlawful now the highest court in the land agrees this means that parliament can now sit again and the commons speaker says it will convene on wednesday morning forced johnson is now returning early from the un saying he intends to carry on with briggs it we're going to. be the molds for purgation politics in the field with a disease a vote it did we will respect and 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 only support please we get home and leave a brick sit on october 31st all right 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 then of course was what the whole thing was about this is a coup our judicial who were 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 for the evidence of the establishments the very richest the very most powerful being determined to do anything that they can including dragging the

queen's 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 spreading disinformation generate millions of dollars in online advertising revenue from well known brands according to a new study by british organization the global dissin for mission index now the domains it cited include those peddling conspiracy theories pseudo science but also a conservative web site and of course r.t. right guys it takes a closer look at who is behind the study. in simple terms everything's become

automated even the ads you place online they are placed by algorithms you never know what sites you'll end up on and the algorithms can tell apart 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 estimate 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 $911.00 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 all. this information websites twitchy fairly conservative gig with are 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 judge's global this information index coalition 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 and 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 the state 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 stance 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. teenage environmental activist to grow to in berg delivered an impassioned address to the un climate action summit on monday the swedish campaigner rebuked world leaders for failing to tackle the destruction of the biosphere you have still in my dreams my childhood with your empty words and yet i'm one of the jocks once. people are suffering people are

dying entire school systems are collapsing we are in the beginning of a mass extinction and what you can talk about is money and fame or tales of economic growth how did you i 6. also scowled at donald trump when they almost crossed paths but the u.s. president paid 0 attention to the climate activist she then left the room unaccompanied by or excuse me company by security guards as the president arrived at the u.n. headquarters for a separate meeting on religious freedom. the young activists emotional speech at the u.n. was praised by many with people describing her words as inspirational and sympathizing with her anger against environmental destruction however the widespread support has been somewhat soured by a wave of mockery the french education minister responded to in berg's speech

saying that she risks creating a generation of people depressed about climate change a member of germany's ruling c.d.u. party also claimed the teen is attempting to appeal to emotion without offering rational arguments and then there has been a flurry of criticism on social media as well quite unfair gunner back a german m.e.p. gave us his thoughts on the speech and the fanfare around the activist. message may be delivered in heartfelt terms but to call it compelling it's not objectionable what is perhaps objectionable is the hysteria that is being created by the media in relation to every one of her. appearances we have a very complex scientific problem for us here there is

scientists are divided. of climate change and the reasons for it and we pay very little attention to a serious evaluation of the scientific evidence but instead listening to a 16 year old as if she were the new order called of delfi gratitude berg is not the only one making headlines on the climate change platform for a president has annoyed french climate activists by telling them to move their rallies from paris to poland. and the story. president matt corner fronts has a once again called the banners to help in the fight against climate change speaking at the u.n. climate change emergency summit he said he understood the frustrations of the millions of schoolchildren who had been striking on fridays next amended to be deployed in one week for months and months now we've heard the young people

speaking and i think they've identified as absolutely urgency that we have to respond to here but while much corn understands their frustrations his government didn't seem too keen on those climate activists who protested in paris over the weekend with some alleging brute force was used by the police as the violence spiraled out of control. and much corn has made it clear he really wants the protesters to go away well from false at least as what he really really wants is for them to take their anger out on a number you country code that. every friday to say that the planet is burning that's nice but that is not the problem people should go protest in poland help me move those i cannot push forward who is upset that poland is refusing to commit to

an e.u. target to be carbon neutral by 2050 heads walking the floor from adopting this is official policy that's not gone down well in poland where the country's deputy foreign minister is accused of the lecturing and it is perhaps difficult to swallow such a lecture when france itself has been accused of calling behind and tackling the climate emergency france's mission emissions targets in 3 or 4 big sectors a wise person one said people who live in cost houses should. 3 bricks advice some may council to take. r t s. pakistan was shaken by a 5.8 magnitude earthquake on tuesday local media citing officials have reported that at least to 26 people are known to have died hundreds more have been injured the quake has damaged property and roads with people reportedly fleeing high rise

buildings in case of further tremors effects were felt in the capital islamabad and other major cities including lahore the pakistani army chief says that aviation and medical rescue teams have been dispatched. back with more news in let's say 34 minutes stay with us this is arch international. 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 haven't well there has been for a lot of this they've been trying to launch 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 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 health care what will happen with health care which plan will be able to coalesce democrats 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 had

a public option i think that will be 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 if i can glean from what kevin said it's 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 it'll just be a repeat of obamacare all over again and we know what happened there go ahead i mean yeah look the health care industry gives the both parties equally so the democratic party is still trying in the lunch to the left is just so bernie sanders you know his policies are populist and they're the most popular platforms out there and so any time i hear somebody like liz warner joe biden have this like well we've got to have something for the private insurance industry i know that they've been

taken money from the private insurance industry because medicare for all is bad for the one percent you know i don't agree that there's a liberal media in america i think it's a corporate media and you know that's what's happening and so the democratic party as we've seen time and time again they would read. or lose to republicans then let progressives take over the party because of progressive takeover they lose their gravy train and they keep coming up with these crazy polls even though bernie sanders is the only guy that has gotten a 1000000 unique donors no one else has done that and so i just the democratic party almost like they want to rerun this all we need a centrist to be trumped like liz warren who in october of 2017 along with cory booker and 3 other democrats voted to give trump an extra $80000000000.00 for his war budget that he didn't even ask for i mean i can't sit here and listen to his or her she wants to green up the military that's.
