a formal impeachment inquiry into donald trump it came after a whistleblower claimed wrongdoing during a phone call between the president and his ukrainian counterpart vladimir zelinsky it is the latest in a slew of impeachment threats trump has faced since he took office in january 2007 . but the walls feel like they're closing in on the truth ministration right now and i'm not sure they can hold them off for much longer the walls are closing in and everyone is freaking out the walls are closing the wheels are coming off. the walls are closing in on president trump walls are closing it with trump on the walls are closing in on the trump white house. all of the walls are closing in at this point the walls are closing in fast on donald trump. democrats on slav seem to mostly dominated by a debunked russian collusion probe our correspondent. takes a look now and comments on the effort against trouble. if you're
10:03 pm
a democrat the hawg cool liberal type you knew in your heart the trump would be brought down the only question was how long it would take just needed a reason and come on there were plenty the people put their money on the trump russia collusion story treason collusion between the trunk team and the russians and trump knew about it that would truly be impeachable it's miss. prison of treason and so far his response has been exploding and unfortunately proved entirely fabricated but to hell with it obstruction of justice a federal system in the united states that ought to do it to the president trying trying to block the f.b.i.'s rush investigation commit an impeachable offense are we getting closer and closer to the possibility of yet another impeachment process no dodges that to come on let's go in on the guy slept with the porn star
10:04 pm
media told us and paid a hush money to keep it silent no way he'd survive that bicycle you see the trump team stepping into every trap that she and her lawyer set for them haven't a president knowledge that he was actually meant to be a party to the nondisclosure agreement and now of course she's got a an avenue and a way to fire back at it cohen what is going on a mini get outta jail free cards does trump have you can keep this up surely every excuse to get rid of trump was brought up this gust dissected in this guarded nothing would stake until now it seems like ukraine is the 1st nail in trump's political coffin bloodhounds democrats smell blood weakness at long last trump is vulnerable i think focusing on this ukraine
10:05 pm
scandal singularly is important i think we have to act quickly but not with haste. more able to speak with one voice on that subject than on some of the other we've got to go narrow no question about it i would hope within a 6 week frame we could get the evidence on the table so the american people can see it just one phone conversation and trump side his political death. warrant and if you thought it was about russia you thought wrong even a russia was discussed in that very call i would like to find out what happened with this whole situation with the ukraine they say crowd strike i guess you have one of your wealthy people the server they say ukraine has it that sounds crazy the democrat servers hacked by the russians allegedly somehow ending up in ukraine what these things are so secure crowd strike the d.n.c.
10:06 pm
as computer security squad wouldn't let the f.b.i. look at them would threaten their security if the f.b.i. investigated they claimed all that the agents received were redacted draft reports all the information about russian hacking was pushed amongst others by crowd strike and the f.b.i. putting him politely said this isn't how things easily done it's not the way we would prefer to do the investigation 2 years have passed than trump still hasn't been able to find those servers from may or may not have reason to think that the servers are in ukraine and is trying to rule whatever they know in washington it's clear that the democrats won't let go of this whole ukraine business they finally got solid ground for their long awaited impeachment oh and russia forget it when cares anymore the democrats are desperate. they're
10:07 pm
terrified of losing the election joe biden is a is a disaster as a candidate if if he is the nominee he will i'm almost certain he will lose to trump and the democrats are hoping to bring the trump down through this whole impeachment process this idea of. finding a scandal and running around hysterically where 'd there really. no criminal offense so they're hoping to bring trump down but i just can't imagine it will work . meanwhile u.s. house speaker nancy pelosi has suggested moscow play a role or played a role rather in the trump ukraine phone call scandal russia's foreign minister lambasted that notion. as we saw with the russian interference and by the way i think russia has a hand in this by the way. we see new sanctions every day and almost every hour
10:08 pm
i can see asians of new mortal sins against russia since nancy pelosi today said that russia is behind the incident surrounding the phone call of trump and this is an example of a clear paranoia. earlier on friday russia's foreign minister took to the u.n. general assembly sergey lavrov spoke out at the undermining of international law by countries pushing their vision of the world on others outside the u.n. in new york here's our. during the general debate the russian foreign minister sergei lavrov used his remarks to essentially to lay out the russian view of the world and argue that russia is trying to deescalate conflicts around the world that dialogue is necessary in his speech he criticized the united states for basically ignoring the interests of other countries and replacing the rule based international order with new rules that were convenient for them in the moment you do she is up with the moment with the leading western countries are trying to
10:09 pm
impede the development of a multi-polar world in order to regain their privileged position to impose standards of conduct on others that are based on the narrow western interpretation of liberalism in a nutshell were liberals and everything is permitted in pursuit of this policy the west has been increasingly loath to recognize international law and more often and more insistently dwells on a rules based order in the press conference that followed his remarks before the general assembly he seemed to hit on similar themes he talked about many instances around the world where it seemed like the united states was not helping to stabilize international tensions i pointed to the situation with iran where the united states unilaterally pulled out of the j c p o way. in the sort of the problem started when the u.s. unilaterally withdrew from the agreement and told everyone else to stop abiding by it's too promising sanctions over trade with iran which i believe these actions were destructive not only for the situation around iran's nuclear program but also
10:10 pm
for the nonproliferation of nuclear weapons and the whole situation in the region is response to a question that was raised about the fact that members of the russian delegation for the u.n. general assembly had their visas pulled at the last minute so he asked the question who is responsible for making these decisions. i do not believe that either president trump or secretary mike had anything to do with that mr also. but assuming that's true then the question arises how are decisions being made in the u.s. especially those directly linked to washington's obligations to ensure the normal functioning of u.n. headquarters when there are a number of countries were touched on during the press conference and many questions were asked about syria about venezuela about the situation in the middle east he emphasized that russia is working with these different arab states to try and resolve the tension and deescalate the situation in the gulf so it was quite an interesting interaction touching on many different situations but emphasizing that
10:11 pm
russia is committed to deescalation and dialogue not stirring up and exacerbating international tensions or domestic conflicts within countries. recorded in the u.k. says it is unable to prevent the home office from deporting a 10 year old girl at the risk of female genital mutilation after her sudanese mother's asylum application was rejected. putting aside his enthusiasm for war and its cozy relationships with the haters the british government style the self of the staunch defender of human rights around the world the latest crusade they've taken up is the fight against of g.m. in other countries they've pledged 50000000 pounds by 2030 to combat the issue. the bible it's very clear that he isn't any requirement it doesn't make. sense to will understand don't go but the british home office is pushing ahead with
10:12 pm
deporting a woman and her 10 year old daughter to bahrain from where lawyers fear then be deported on to done but the mother is originally from the country has one of the highest rates of conducting f.g.s. in the world and the girl risks being another victim they are happy to prosecute female genital mutilation they're happy to give money abroad to stamp it out but they're failing to protect women who are at risk if deported a british family court earlier ruled that the coal face the risk of being circumcised against her will if sense of board but it was a move by the home office which said immigration issues the core business perhaps the most high profile attempt by the u.k. to deport someone it was the case of abu qatada a radical cleric the u.k. accused of having ties to al qaeda it took 12 years and 1700000 pounds to remove him and was a victory for the british government yet since his departure taishan britain has spent almost 200000 pounds protecting his wealth in jordan and the question now is
10:13 pm
whether the mother and her little girl would also get that much protection from u.k. authorities if she ends up back in sudan we asked the u.k. home office for a comment on the case and are awaiting its response a lawyer for the girl's mother told us that the british government is not doing enough to protect young women at risk of s.g.m. . her mother says that her little girl is a high risk of a g.m. so her mother was cut and she suffered type 3 f g m which is the most physically severe type of f. she m. that any woman or child can undergo and in fact the mother says her sister has also died whilst enjoying this most brutal practice so she certainly says is a high risk of f c m m we know from the social services who took this up to cation to court to stop this little girl from being deported that they also believe has a high risk of f g m and also the national center here an expert organization
10:14 pm
working with families in this country who are at risk if she can also believe that this little girl is at risk so there's a wealth of expertise here that says she is at risk of f.g.s. but unfortunately the home secretary and also the immigration authorities say the immigration courts don't feel that the risk is this is high my real concern here is that we have a government that appears to be committed to prosecuting cases of f.g. and in throwing the book ethnic minority families when this f.p.m. in this country but when it comes to protecting girls the terrorist abroad and legitimately claim asylum the government's all too ready to refuse that claim because in my view if a so-called hostile immigration environment and they're not given the status that they so desperately need so i was this real contradiction in the government's approach time and time again played out a new cases sadly. the global climate change club downs are picking up steam with the number of planet protecting moves being in motion for one
10:15 pm
a swedish daily newspaper is banning all advertisements of fossil fuel based products and services with immediate effect papers and cited environmental concerns for his decision we go after the biggest mass climate protest in history and separately a 3rd of the world's banks have signed up to a un initiative on efforts to tackle climate change such as cutting back on investing in fossil. your projects among them are major players deutsche bank city group and barclays in total $130.00 financial institutions in $49.00 countries have signaled that they are on board but notably 7 of the world's 10 biggest banks are missing from that list the un initiative calls on banks to harmonize their strategies with the paris climate agreement and work towards a sustainable future from being seen as an overdue move to mobilize the influential finance sector to a fad that will cause more problems than it solves we put the issue up for discussion here on r.t. international. what we really need to be looking out looking at is eliminating the
10:16 pm
funding of fossil fuels as quickly as possible and the key thing here is not to focus too much on the banks they will do whatever they can within what is profitable and have legal key thing is to put pressure on governments to utterly change the rules in terms of what banks to to get rid of anything that is destroying the future for our children the green technologies that are presented as growing are not a toll in many instances in the energy sector they say no to nuclear energy there is no reason to see no to say no because nuclear energy doesn't emit any c o 2 and they say yes the electric car collector car is an awful and see life cycle analysis if you look at their environmental footprint it's much worse than my diesel car today and it will be for the next 50 years so because of the production of the batteries so this is solved rubbish this is perfect rubbish frankly and it is enough you know having 16 year old girls like the one we had
10:17 pm
a system at the united nations explaining to adults that there are stupid i mean this is not fun you know she's supported by the person's family of billionaires that have invested in the green technologies i mean this is who writes her texts this is a disgrace really it's time to stop and the gulf numbs progress of course in the reduction of c o 2 emissions but. they should do it normally at a normal pace and for bidding the use of call of fuel or gas is stupid especially for example in germany because of their choice for supposedly renewable energy such as wind energy they need coal plants to to produce the energy when there is no went so crazy but identified you know perhaps correctly perceived problems with some of what is being pushed forward is green at the moment as a reason for carrying on burning fossil fuels when we know it is who already a crime against humanity in the form of catastrophic droughts floods typhoons like
10:18 pm
clones hurricanes you know and the strength of these things is absolutely vastly greater than before and you know so so to try and identify some of the problems with what's being put forward by you know the mainstream green narrative as a reason to carry on destroying ourselves it's just madness that we need to do the right thing at the right time it's not people are extreme extreme activists that need to decide the gulf once cannot allow this and the united nations should not allow this the only reason that the solutions required to deal with these problems are now so extreme is that well we've had 30 years of people like luke saying oh well we need to wait till we know more until the technology is about or what has happened over that period is that we have produced more emissions in the last 30 years than the entirety of human history before so the very very tempting rationale which is that anything that looks greener than before is a step in the right direction we must go at a normal pace we cannot stop planes from flying from today on because that's what
10:19 pm
the extremists want to paraphrase go live in progress with your leisure not as it would in obviously progress on this. united states announced on thursday that it is sending 200 military personnel and a patriot missile battery does to help defend its allies the oil production facilities this comes after attacks on 2 major installations in. the gulf state knocked down 5 percent of the world's oil supply just a couple of weeks back you know saudi arabia already had a number of patriot missile systems in the area when the attack took place they were rendered useless as at least 17 drones and cruise missiles hit the oil producing facilities u.s. secretary of state mike brown pale gave the following explanation as to why the batteries were not able to thwart the attack look anytime we've seen air defense systems all around the world have mixed success some of the finest in the world don't know with big things up security experts charles sure bridge told us he
10:20 pm
doesn't believe additional patriot missiles will bolster saudi defenses against the sort of attacks we saw earlier in the month and that's gnomic success really about this is almost no success if any ever has been recorded by patriot systems against low flying targets such as the drones the cruise missiles that were being used in these incidents to petra system is primarily designed to be flying to be used against high speed high altitude targets such as ballistic missiles it's more of a symbolic gesture than anything that's going to practically at the defense capabilities of saudi arabia ironically perhaps much more. much more effective systems perhaps more low tech systems perhaps more old fashioned systems that could be used more effectively they're nowhere near as expensive as the patriot systems and perhaps cynic might suggest they're full using those i suppose as opposed to selling and deploying more patriots wouldn't be as much benefits of the u.s.
10:21 pm
arms industry. there is high level anger in germany at the u.s. which is being accused of trying to bulldoze a major russian gas pipeline project by repeatedly threatening sanctions the chairman of the german parliament energy committee told r.t. at a conference in berlin the penalties if imposed would violate international law. do you think yes it is the 1st it seems to me that these sanctions extraterritorial and therefore an acceptable under international law 2nd based on the conversations in which i took part i have the impression that the gas pipeline will be built it will simply become more expensive thus u.s. sanctions will increase the price of the project for companies involved in the construction of the gas pipeline and the project will not fail the interest of americans in a sense is very simple they want to sell their own gas in europe to do this they need to weaken the economic ties between germany and europe and specifically between germany and russia that's the whole point but they've only partially succeeded as we know for many years russian gas was flow to europe especially
10:22 pm
germany without interruption so the construct of this gas pipeline is in the interests of germany and it will be built i think the behavior of the u.s. president is encouraging europeans to change their minds about america of course the u.s. is a major economic part of europe for germany partners do not behave as the americans are behaving because germany and europe are not a colony of the united states. nord stream too is also currently suing of the european union for imposing regulations which the project's lawyers argue will jeopardize investment in the scheme. nord stream to a.g. has now decided to ask the arbitral tribunals to determine that the european union is in breach of its international law commitments under the energy charter treaty and to make orders requiring d.-u. to discontinue as breach use extending its jurisdiction to cover offshore pipelines beyond the blocks borders the gas directive is designed to open the market and
10:23 pm
encourage competition by revealing details such as operating costs nordstrom to says that will discourage billions of euros from of investment and launched a dispute in april claiming that the e.u. is violating the energy charter treaty which regulates the industry's cross border cooperation including investment both sides failed to reach an agreement leading the company to launch legal action on thursday. 3 quarters of the pipeline and has already been laid and is expected to come on line later this year when completed stream 2 will stretch for 1200 kilometers and will dramatically increase the amount of fuel supplied from russia to europe that use gas directive would only apply to the section on german territory but has implications throughout the entire network journalist thomas fassbender told us there is a geo political tug of war playing out over the supply of energy to europe.
10:24 pm
this is not a ringback legal problem this is not a legal issue this is a political issue which is going to be decided by legal means which always creates an unfortunate sea situation because it makes it to play fees which should be which which should be left apart we have a strong. interest by the us that this project must not be and we must not forget that even the law cakes the present law case is just a step in a multi triad but by the u.s. government we have we are still have the the proposed sanctions against the companies participating in the building the construction of a pipeline on the table for by watching. a cinema chain in the us has banned movie goers from wearing costumes masks and face paint during screenings of the new joker film in its theaters. just me as joker.
10:25 pm
of the band comes amid fears of possible violence during screenings concerns were raised by families of victims of a mass shooting at a batman movie in 2012 when a dozen people were killed back then there were unproven claims that the killer could have been inspired by the joker character the shooter also became a hero to the in-cell community which i'll explain in a moment at the time though the studio distance itself from the violence denying that the dark knight rises movie influence the perpetrators actions incidentally this latest release will not be shown at the venue in colorado where that terrible massacre took place. the u.s. military has even issued warnings to its service members about a mass shooting threat at showings of the joker film several potentially dangerous messages posted by people identifying as in cell have been discovered by
10:26 pm
intelligence officers. boost in social media have made reference to both interest so but in so extremists replicating the 2012 theater shooting in the rural screenings of the joke a move it nationwide theater this presents a potential risks to department of defense personnel and family members though there are no known specific credible threats to the opening of the joke on the 4th of october. the threat allegedly comes from the in-cell community whose philosophy resembles that of the film's main character the joker they associate online and describe themselves as involuntary celibate and voluntarily celibate rather disgruntled then apparently feel neglected and undesired in the modern day society not being able to find a romantic or sexual partner as a result the theory goes some of them turn openly hostile to society and promote violence todd phillips the director of joker rebuffs the claims that this film may
10:27 pm
provoke violent acts it's a little troubling when people write think pieces without having seen it and even in their think piece is right i don't need to see it to know what it is to me that's you know i find it astounding to be quite frank how easily the far left can sound like the far right when it suits their agenda i think the reason for that is is somewhat hypocritical the concern over the joker movie is warranted because according to the f.b.i. they have been picking up chatter on some dark web websites that indicate that there is talk about a possible incident that could occur somewhere at a movie theater that's been undisclosed the united states especially right now we're in such a fractured society in terms of the view of you know racial politics and how everyone views each other there is a huge concern about this idea of white males being a threat to the society in general i don't think that's an accurate assessment in
10:28 pm
terms of the actual belief that white males in general are a danger to society but this is a new a media narrative that's been playing out for some time now it doesn't for mail be back in 32 minutes with your headlines and with us introduction. it's always only been a matter of time impeachment has always been on the agenda settling on the issue and process are the sticking points the democrats and the liberal media removed over a telephone call to the ukrainian president what could possibly go wrong. in 24 you know bloody revolution in fiji the demonstrations were peaceful protests to be. revolution is always spontaneous. is it always.
10:29 pm
10:30 pm
technologies can we make. today an amazing evolutionary biologist. armaan money. or more than a one it's a great pleasure to have in our show. so we're going to start with the book that you wrote earlier and i so i know that you will. but we'll talk about the topics that are inspiring you just a little bit but let's start with mutants on genetic variety in the human body and in that book you put forward their idea of genetic exploration genetic experiments being a good thing yeah. ok then we should be afraid of them so. in your own words tell me what does that mean is it ok.
