ruled parliamentary suspension was unlawful and they didn't hold back. these government stands in the shade. sit please if you like to go. so we wanted to force in the. arrest of an american soldier over a purported major news network plans the fires alongside an extremist but. live from. here with you tonight we're. welcome to the program. one of the most closely watched fringe meetings at the un general assembly the us and ukrainian presidents faced reporters about a now infamous phone call that led to an impeachment inquiry being launched against
3:02 pm
donald trump rival democrats claim trump abused his powers by attempting to get the ukrainian leader to help investigate a potential election rival in return for aid funds across this for us is putting new york capable of seeing the leaders together transcript of the conversations now been released what are the details what more do we know while the leader of ukraine and the leader of the united states both made clear that the way they see it the conversation that took place between them is not the way didn't take place the way the democrats are characterizing it the way opponents of trump have characterized that conversation of which a transcript is now available is simply not an accurate representation here's the president the united states and the president of ukraine. i think phone call was normal we spoke about many. and
3:03 pm
the so i think you are right it is that nobody bullshit bush me yes and no 3 you know they would know for sure you have to do it is one of the 4 but you know that's what you could ask the question and i appreciate the attention and i think. if you look at where you. were his son he goes to china he wants who are we going to have dollars he goes to ukraine he walks away with $50000.00 a month and a lot of money in addition to that and the whole process. he's going to take this is like. he's going to save doing this. now the contents of that conversation they were describing is now fully public declassified by order of the president and if you look at this brief conversation held for 3 minutes on july 25th it's pretty clear there was a mention of joe biden his son hunter biden and a prosecutor in ukraine this is from the transcript that was just released
3:04 pm
there's a lot of talk about biden son the body didn't stop the prosecution and a lot of people want to find out about it so whatever you can do with the attorney general would be great i will have mr giuliani give you a coup and i move so we're going to have attorney general who and we will get to the bottom of it i'm sure you will figure it out but in this in this transcript there is no mention of the $400000000.00 of military aid in the initial allegations from the democrats it was alleged that trumpet threatened to withdraw aid from ukraine unless they gave him information on joe biden that simply is not in this transcript however the democrats have moved ahead with their impeachment inquiry and at this point we are hearing some very loud denunciations of trump from the democratic party could get interesting well the impeachment inquiry is already been
3:05 pm
launched by nancy pelosi the transcript perhaps didn't contain what they wanted it to contain the democrats the evidence what comes next in terms of where that will go. well the us constitution lays out a procedure for removing the president by impeachment so essentially you've got 2 houses of the us congress the 1st house being the house of representatives they would be the house that decides to go ahead with impeachment at this point we've got 6 committees investigating trump it would be the judiciary committee they would be the ones to ultimately bring impeachment articles against donald trump and if they were to then vote to begin impeachment proceedings it would be then the u.s. senate that would convene an impeachment trial and then vote on whether or not to remove trump from office now and in u.s. history only 2 presidents have been impeached bill clinton was impeached as was andrew johnson and both of those u.s. presidents remained in office they were not removed from office the impeachment
3:06 pm
trial happened and the senate voted to keep them in office now richard nixon was facing an impeachment inquiry leading to an impeachment trial he resigned ahead of time so we have not had any president in u.s. history ever removed through the impeachment route now donald trump argues that if the democrats continue to pursue this they will actually work to his benefit this is donald trump. they do it so i'll just come from our name but that. is. the fact is that the president of the united states. in pre-check his constitutional responsibility has asked a foreign government to help him in his political campaign president trump or abuse the powers of his office and be trade the public trust. for personal political gain like any mafia boss the president didn't need to say that's
3:07 pm
a nice country you have it be a shame if something happened to it because that was clear from the conversation there is no quid pro quo necessary to betray your country or your oath of office even though many read this as a quid pro quo i'm not concerned whether it is a quid pro quo or not. now those were democratic leaders reacting to the transcript but they have a very different interpretation of it then trump and the ukrainian leader they don't seem to see the conversation in the same way now not all democrats are immediately jumping on to the idea of impeachment gabbert has spoken up and said she doesn't support the idea of impeaching trump she says it would hurt the democratic party in the country in the long term and divide the country so tell us again and she she has spoken out but many democrats seem to be excited about the potential of beginning in impeachment proceeding against donald trump it's
3:08 pm
important to note however that at this point the senate is controlled by republicans and it's very likely that if impeachment proceedings began mitch mcconnell who is the senate majority leader he could simply have the senate vote not to carry out an impeachment trial so a lot remains in question about what comes next but donald trump and the ukraine leader and the democrats have a very different interpretation of the conversation that we now have the full transcript of able to do it so they're going to be interesting one up through the 2020 lection is that with a list going on all these kind of. updates from new york. dr robot should associate professor of u.s. politics told us the transcript raises a lot of questions not only concerning the u.s. leader. this is just a glimpse at what we're looking at and certainly an inquiry could open up lots of doors that we haven't even considered yet about presidential conduct or misconduct that may have been going on around this particular instance or others you're not
3:09 pm
seeing a lot in the mainstream us press you know not seeing questions about well it could also be distracting us from what joe biden has done and others have been involved maybe there really is something there that's a question that's not coming through really the questions that are being asked in the hope i think for those who are were answered from this that this leads into really great. leaked information or juicy information not about joe biden but about donald trump. people who are upset with his politics and this could be a way to move us away from when joe biden might be involved in if anything. by the tears and heckling from any one piece the undeceived british prime minister has been facing the wrath of a furious house of commons that's off to the supreme court ruled his swoop to suspend parliament was unlawful what suffering defeat of the defeat and taunting and peace to force an election they've rejected twice already some blamed m.p.'s for trying to do rail bricks. people of this country can see perfectly clearly what
3:10 pm
is going on they know that parliament was going to honor its promises to respect the referendum and the people at home know that this parliament will keep delaying it will keep sabotaging the negotiations because they don't want a deal this is because the truth is good members opposite are living in a fantasy world i want breaks it down and people want us out on october 31st. m.p. scrabbled scrambled back to work after the controversial suspension of parliament was ruled as voided by the u.k.'s highest court on tuesday lawmakers say the poor relation was a cynical attempt by boris johnson to stop them having a say on for venting vote and crashing out of the e.u. without a deal on october the 31st session back was never going to be easy right it's curious opposition m.p.'s are venting at the ruling conservatives or the government's chief legal adviser the man who told boris johnson the suspension was
3:11 pm
good to go railed out but i don't like. that car and he's our disgrace we now have very wide number of this house. race against levy to denying the electorate the charge of having. how this matter should be resolved this parliament is very good yeah really he was hoping that parliament would still be probed until the middle of october but as it was we saw that ruling yesterday by the u.k.'s supreme court unanimously coming to the conclusion that that decision to provoke parliament by the government wasn't lawful and in fact ruling that as far as they were concerned it never happened there was no such thing that had no legal basis and so m.p.'s were able to once more take their seats in the house of commons today where we saw those very fiery scenes not just like the ones we saw from the attorney general but all. from other
3:12 pm
m.p.'s who while so was delighted to be back in the house also to cave out the government these government stands in shame tendering illegal advice to our monarch and not even able to uphold our most basic but most important of principles abiding by the rule of law yes the speaker we had notice of the intention to prove with your assistance we could have entertained motions against seats or even a motion of no confidence so it was a coup wasn't it was clearly not in if you like to go prioritisation shot down this. time i sat down and got take a stanley cup i don't live like you have to like this either leader like they describe when i start to talk about. it like this right now the government say that while they disagree with that ruling parliament had to say it once more
3:13 pm
they will abide by it and they're now trying to table a motion calling for a general election we've already seen the opposition in the house of commons rejecting that twice before they say that boris johnson's attempts to try to get an election are just a distraction process and what they want to do is to stop and no deal bragg's it from taking place also those opposition figures calling on boris johnson to stand down it's not likely that he will but with those with that deadline of october 31st looming and parliament saying that he must extend article 50 and call for an extension to the brogues a deadline it's really unclear to see what's going to happen next. the f.b.i. has arrested an army soldier who allegedly planned to bomb a news network and assassinate a presidential candidate they arrest those also uncovered a wider plot for the man to join a notorious ukrainian ultranationalist group fighting in eastern ukraine as little
3:14 pm
quarter reports he's far from the only american joining the ranks of ukrainian neo nazis. planning a terror attack preparing to murder and tea for members this isn't a movie plot it's the allegations that recently landed jarrett william smith in an f.b.i. cell and authorities say his plans were only confined to the us of a smith had spoken about his desire to travel to ukraine to fight with the ukraine based violent far right paramilitary group as of battalion why ukraine well it's a hotbed for the far right and white supremacy which have a big influence in the country's military the as all battalion for example its insignia features 2 nazi era symbols still widely used by neo nazi groups.
3:15 pm
and smith was dead set on joining up with thousands of and it's not just him reports say some of his collaborators were already fighting with another neo nazi group called right sector it seems kiev has a poll for americans on the far right remember charlottesville. for members of a far right group involved in that riot were arrested and lo and behold they too had a fixation on the battalion they even traveled to europe and met one of the battalions leaders with so many neo nazis in the us you would think washington would unambiguously oppose their growth but that's just not the case at 1st in 2015 congress unanimously voted against military aid to the neo nazi as of battalion i am grateful that the house of representatives unanimously passed my amendments last
3:16 pm
night to ensure that our military does not train members of the. neo nazi as of battalion but just one year later washington changed its mind and all of the sudden pictures began surfacing on social media of as of and u.s. soldiers striking poses together it makes you wonder if the u.s. even thinks nazi ideology is a threat let alone something negative frankly you now are batting screens for human rights violations not for ideology neo nazis you know can join the us army to looks like the us army will take anyone these days as long as they hate the people washington wants them to hate in this case given the civ and the russian. dominated the united states or at least a decade if not more it isn't surprising that there would be people who were eager to join the military who. are crazy with.
3:17 pm
russian isn't look wrong is when you have a volunteer. military as does the us does it does attract. not necessarily very good people it also attracts people who subscribe to dangerous etiology there should be a bidding rose as to prevent people who have these dangerous. however. probably the us military simply doesn't have the vetting process there so eager to get as many recruits as possible that they wave almost everyone in the nationalist groups in ukraine have also been in coates and children with extreme views here's some footage filmed by adding a video agency abruptly. it
3:18 pm
is not interesting for children to sit still and just listen that's why they play war games. you know if you. watch. i want to name the children the real story of the ukrainian and surgeon to me was and what people who fought for its. politicians and journalists around the world are still taking over the speech of 16 year old activist grettir at the u.n. climate summit well she's been widely praised for a passion to address all those who say she is leading a cult for the younger generation ragas their flocks the thin line between activism and fanaticism. the thing with climate change is it's called deligated we don't
3:19 pm
fully understand it ourselves we know it's happening we know some of the reasons but it's all tenuous and the guys who have the best grasp of it scientists and always easy to understand but that's why mother nature gave us climate change activists no need for his meteorology degree there. are many activists it isn't about science or facts policy or debate it's faith belief in something greater something they don't necessarily understand conics plain and wound comprehend like the judeo christian religion the world is
3:20 pm
going to end in 12 years if we don't address climate change we face catastrophe and crisis on this planet climate change that though is not something that we have to prepare for it is something that is here you know there's a word for that the image feeling that the world is about to and that i'm a get in is around the corner schooled eschatology and it formed the basis of early christian dogma but the day of the lord will come as a thief in the night in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise and the elements will melt with fervent heat both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up we should be grateful to climate change activists trying to save our and worthy polluted souls save us from judgment day and as with any faith they have a prophet that you need
3:21 pm
a college. jesus didn't have a university degree now the lord of climate stability has sent us his daughter we are not in school today. and this time we are not alone we have some adults one i work today eva. the him and why because this is an emergency our house is on the cyan faith is for everyone the rich and the poor all genders races and ages this is a hooley crusade and anyone old enough to hold a protest side or throw a rock concert of the holy spirit of the atmosphere.
3:22 pm
brings a tear to my eyes it's exactly like the crusade of the year 1212 what thousands of european children joined up to liberate the holy land of course none of them got them many died along the way but c'mon it's kids doing stuff spies everybody plus it makes the heretics look bad oh yeah like with any were legit there are heretics those who refuse to acknowledge god or whatever you believe in they have a name in this faith climate change deniers is no middle ground either if you're a skeptic you are a denial and climate change deniers a dirty trashy folk the sort who are going to rule. stay in the hell where the
3:23 pm
lights stay on even when nobody's home climate change deniers are a danger to our security the gloves are off predatory climate deniers are a threat to our children the depravity of climate change denial it sure looks like climate change is the new 21st century dogma over i've gotten through to you we in the media we want to save your soul and if you already take my hand we're going to church well online church has open your internet browser and go to n b c dot com confess their confess my children confess your sins cleanse your polluted sols seriously they've got a climate confessions page now tell me this isn't a full blown religion. a new crew of 3 are on their way to the
3:24 pm
international space station after a few quick orbits of the earth due to dock later this hour it's a historic day for united arab emirates its 1st ever astronaut is on board alongside counterparts from the u.s. and russia so ask you taylor watch the launch in kazakhstan. and we can see that the engine has ignited. and the next oh sure are. just so you can understand what it feels like to be standing where i am i'm around 2 kilometers away from the launch pad known as the garden start on the ground underneath me you can hear the people call to the ground underneath me is just rigged up rating this is not a trauma but the shaking from that last off it's going through my whole body
3:25 pm
combined not of course with the deafening roar as those engines kicked into action imagine the power that is needed in order to propel that 15 me to tool $310.00 ton rocket into the ad and then of course you have that beautiful the mesmerizing flame of the fuel that ignited it really is almost indescribably dramatic not flying today of russian cosmonaut. american astronaut just a command and. from the united arab emirates now this you want has drawn in a bigger crowd than usual why well film a military pilot tons of snow elements or he will become the fust amorality and indeed the 1st arab to ever set foot on the international space station what are they going to do one set up that well that you to come down in march 2020 and they have got lots to get on with not only have they got to conduct over $300.00 experiments with a focus on astronauts health flight problems with vision that also have several
3:26 pm
planned space walks and this is really all in preparation a contribution to the future plan to missions well both to the moon and 2024 but after that potentially 2 mas so that we have that the 100 and 44th launch of the site. hughes rocket into space expedition 61 on the way to its new home to a sas full 100 kilometer says above the sky joining a long and prestigious history and space exploration it's been almost 60 years since a 5th cosmonaut yuri gagarin of course became the fust man to ever fly in space and here we are decades on still exploring still innovating and still think if the cliche reaching for the stars. that's it for the saudis who are back in a 30 minutes time with the latest global news updates about that.
3:27 pm
when else so it seems wrong. why don't we all just don't call. me old yet to say proud to stay calm active. and engaged but it was betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. the tense situation in venezuela is still all over the news the problem in venezuela is not that socialism has been poorly implemented but that socialism has been faithfully implemented for inside venezuela things are different we're going to announce sanctions against a troll to venezuela socio. political moment to. get out
3:28 pm
of that. battle so on the. moment the focus of the who story isn't new makes him cold in henry kissinger to tell him that it would not be tolerated in latin america an alternative economic and social system could take hold and therefore the policy would be to make. economy scream so wants now making the economy of venezuela screed. to do so. they put themselves on the line they did accept the reject. so when you want to be president. wanted. to go right. this is what the 3 of them will be. interested in the war.
3:29 pm
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.
3:30 pm
