10:04 am

10:05 am
a new far left fascism that demands absolute allegiance if you do not speak its language perform its rituals reset its mantras and follow its commandments then you will be censored banished blacklists persecuted and punished it's not going to happen to us. and as with any war you need a main bad guy so saddam's dead gadhafi is gone bin laden's been well killed so what about that other fella what does they do biden you won't be safe joe buds america joe biden would be nothing more than an autopen president. a trojan horse for a radical agenda. so radical so all encompassing that it would transform this country . into something orderly and recognizable it is ironic isn't it that the country
10:06 am
that prides itself on being the freest in the world the only country with absolute free speech they tell us all day every day how those same people can't stand free speech when it's coming from someone they don't like both are right in the left are guilty of this there's no new give no understanding no compromise in either of them it's either their way or go to hell. meanwhile in the u.s. city of providence the mayor is promising reparations for minority communities in a bid to right the wrongs of the past the mayor claims that heralds a major step forward it will see meetings held over historically contentious issues and there are a few of laws perceived to discriminate against the clock and clinton explain it in its but not everybody is in favor one acknowledging that the liberal left agenda
10:07 am
has failed black in minority communities in contemporary times by forcing their children to attend frail schools and by enacting policies that make it easy to become dependent on the government it would be a nun precedented and immoral act of government to seek reparations here for the horrible wrongs that were committed generations ago reparations were also approved in the u.s. city of asheville where money will be invested into deprived black communities here for it is in both cities safety initiatives are just the beginning of much wider changes. a lot of folks are going to jump straight to the reparations question how much what form for how long who's eligible those are all legitimate questions but they're questions for another day and there are questions that will be answered through the process it's important to go step by step with this resolution is the 1st step in that it names that their list of historic. and weighted
10:08 am
against the black community and it is very gay well we decided to put the issue up for debate. just kind of the same thing they always do during elections or any other time or some kind of so far no rise to give this is over going to do a study were going to figure it out i mean how are we not figured out yet slavery ended 865 to 02020 what are we really going to study what are really going to try to figure out is trying to calculate i mean you should know about now never has the government ever taken one step towards understanding and calculating and studying the effects and the impact of slavery on african-american people now it allows people like a.b.l. to come in and make statements oh it's not necessary oh there's no need for this are going to do it right now who's going to pay for it are you go pay for a result of your own tax money how about me out of my own tax money because the government only makes money from us when there needed to be
10:09 am
a $1200.00 stimulus checks in doubt no one was saying oh well that comes from the taxpayer that's a refund we shouldn't do that now and so why is it that they could find money to come up with to pay $12.00 trillions of dollars to come up with a payment for people who need food when they and they couldn't come up with the same amount of money to restore african-americans in this country who they actually affirmatively took actions to ha that's ridiculous to me so i appreciate why who is they do is right now the more there is who is they does need to be more than lip service and right now at l'anse asheville city is doing a resolution but here's the issue asheville needs to do more than a resolution they need to come up with an actual dollar figure of how much they won't black people were harmed by their actual city who knows how much money going to need. jobs in their former owner of the 14 trillion dollars i mean where are they going to come from the values money was bad enough in talking about $6.00
10:10 am
trillion and the reason why that was given so rhys's point is because the government say that we can at work and we can go on here and make money the actual you know. mechanism upon which the money will be delivered who do see is not going to be defined nor will it ever be because all they've ever done for to pay is under so use they say we promise you do we promise you with no promises ever deliver you can't provide reparations by definition until you know what you need to repair there needs to be an assessment of what has been done what black people have suffered specifically and so that's why it's not the solution it needs to be but we and we don't want organizations to keep or communities to start slapping reparations on top of every community redevelopment effort and calling it reparations if it's not if it was going to happen it should have been. identified as slave master in a slave fair transaction and now when he joined me it would be me pain to be read
10:11 am
and it makes no sense that oh. what accounting have been used to break up protests in jerusalem over the israeli government's handling of the pandemic scuffles and clashes were also seen in tel aviv as frustration with the current prime minister boiled over. so let's look at what's cool thing the while protesters feel the government didn't get to grips with the coronavirus and they're particularly angry with the return of some knock down measures due to infection spikes they also say the prime minister
10:12 am
and his cabinet failed to manage the economic fallout of the pandemic on top of all of that is simmering anger over corruption charges against benjamin netanyahu the prime minister's trial resumes next year with witness testimonies he's accused of breach even of accepting bribes despite newman trial though netanyahu says he's focused on ending the covert crisis while we have a common goal to stop the spread of the coronavirus by various measures i remind ministers that by thursday i have requested each ministries plan for a safe exit from the coronavirus restrictions at least $28.00 people were arrested as a result of they on rest in jerusalem and tel aviv political analyst michel brock and former advisor to the president's office jason poland said that thoughts on the current tensions there was functioning and everything did seem under control until
10:13 am
everything was back we celebrated too soon here and that's when you know for all the good work that he did in the 1st wave really wasn't there the 2nd time around a large group of protesters are protesting that the prime minister is or a he's in the midst of a fraud trial and he should resign protesters. really are problematic for those that are out of work those that are from industries which are not picking up the tourism industry the entertainment industry there are people that are just out of work and economically are suffering so he needs to answer those people he's going to have to come out with what are real economic plan that is going to put israel back to a shoring economy as we move through different stages both politically because we have a new government sworn in and in terms of the pandemic itself with new numbers emerge there's been a sort of imbalance between those 2 things and there's a genuine feeling on the street that we could be doing things differently and we could be doing things better now we have a working government there's
10:14 am
a stronger position on a stronger position will voice its checks and balances on the on the prime minister and on his government's policies and that's expressed on the streets as well it's pretty much part and parcel of the democratic debate around how to handle both the economic sides of the pandemic and the medical side as well. to france now where from today face moss have become compulsory in enclosed public spaces previously they had only been needed on public transport and in some shops the moves being brought forward off the french doctors demanded upset. starting this monday wearing masks will be mandatory in enclosed places as announced by prime minister john kass sticks this includes shops public buildings covered markets banks protective measures and testing remain essential in tackling the virus effectively reporting from paris his child it depends on the pros on the cons of the new role. well
10:15 am
what's really interesting is just a few months ago the french government was saying that masks were not essential in the fight against the transmission of 19 this is at a point when france didn't have mass to go to and they were saying only needed to wear a mask if you were somebody who had been 19 or you were a health care professional in dealing with people but now it's deemed that wearing a mask is in this central tool in the fight against transmission of course france has plenty of masks at the moment but some newspapers have been talking about the cost here of wearing a mask and wearing them every day one calculate the cost for a family of $4.00 individuals who have both the children being over the age of 11 it was saying if you buy masks that you can walk again this would be a cost of around $96.00 euros a month but if you decided to wear the single use masks that you discard after every use that would cost a family more like $228.00 euros so quite
10:16 am
a lot of money every month to find to wear those masks however this ruling has been welcomed by many. lately i've been noticing a lot of people coming in without masks i don't want to be rude but the either stay outside or they come in and i put their glasses on and then they go away but i don't actually get close at all so for me the mask is very important and it's very good this is if necessary it should be put on we protect others and we protect ourselves and then there you are it's enough for that we all have to make so we do it. felix sometimes it has gone back to the weird was before people have kind of forgotten about it we've put in place a lot of procedures but it's true that on the beach people feel much more relieved than in a restaurant but just like everywhere else not everyone is happy about this new record. some people have been complaining that wearing
10:17 am
a mask means it's quite difficult to communicate you can't see frankly gestures from people and the reality is that sometimes when somebody's speaking with a mask on they do you sound a little bit muffled now public transport here in france it's already been compulsory to wear the mask for many many weeks with the risk of fine already there but despite that despite the fact that there have been security agents going through the metro stations and train stations handing out fines many people have not been wearing a mask on public transport it's a very emotive subject not just here in france but in other countries too but it seems the issue of wearing a mask or not wearing a mask will remain divisive we're not far from where charlotte was europe's continuing to rheingold over the size of a covert rescue package for the block and e.u. summit on the issue has now dragged into a 4th day in brussels the commission's president though struck an optimistic tone
10:18 am
ahead of today's talks. have the impression that if european leaders really want an agreement a clear will to find a solution and we need a solution the european citizens need a solution the european union needs a solution needs an agreement to overcome this crisis and to prepare europe for the future i am positive for today we are not there yet but things are moving in the right direction the main stumbling block is the total amount of aid and how it should be given out italy and spain for example want it mostly and grants but the netherlands austria sweden and denmark want loans which will have to be nato paid on top of that the dutch prime minister wants any help conditional on the countries and here and rules something hungry in poland claim is meant to target them. tonight we had a long talk about the rule of war and those were tough discussions and we really
10:19 am
need to push through to morrow through want to get somewhere if there is a bridge it's because of them not because i don't like blame game but the dutch man is the real responsible man for 4 months because we are going through a phase of stalemate it looks like it's very complicated more complicated when we'd expected we've clashed quite strongly with the likes of hollande for example as well as with the so-called frugal countries which do not agree on the need for such a major response. while for moscow and foreign minister current meisel believes they souring offer nations in recent years the tween or the blocks members has led to this stalemate. the fact that we have a tremendous fragmentation was in the european union that fact that we use terms like renationalisation not only in political science and an academic debate but it's a common term and this hasn't started because of the current dad log because of their extraordinary and then next iteration we have. 7 members the so which
10:20 am
various topics it's seemingly interesting apart direct. the sync link to brio center in brussels has recently it's all about us the rent is you know because countries on the receiving line might have to face there is conditions which they will consider as an infringement of their surrender and then we are in a completely different chapter and we have seen how. the e.u. mechanisms dealt with greece i don't expect in a role to accept the same conditions that were imposed on greece about 10 years ago . that in a pearson has sacked the governor of the russian region of her part of a forgot was arrested last week amid allegations he organized the martyrs of several businessmen years ago but his detention sparked outrage in the region and
10:21 am
mass protest with all the latest details has died of organs. well this is another step in the saga of forgotten who was of course arrested around 10 days ago on very serious charges of organizing contract killings in 20042005 in a video conference the russian president vladimir putin appointed dictator of a liberal democrat member since 2005 pieces 2011 as acting governor of the hobart of school region of post which he will retain until 2021 when the elections in russia's far east will take place for a permanent governor now here. of course replaces. a full girl who was the governor of scrooge and since 2018 an election which she won beating the united russia can that. one a reputation as the so-called people's governor very quickly becoming popular passing a raft of popular measures that all turned sour very quickly 10 days ago when he
10:22 am
was arrested by the russian f.s.b. the security service and the investigative committee taken on a plane to moscow for questioning to face a very serious charges of organizing contract killings of rival businessmen in 20042005 protesters in russia's far east called the charges against him politically motivated and selective the full to go on is the friend of course deny any guilt they say they will appeal the detention in custody and any charges he faces however series of course they may be with today's move by mr putin to remove him from his post officially for breach of confidence and appoint a good temporary governor until those elections in 21 show that the process is very much serious in motion and is likely to drag on for quite some time. and this is a mortal regiment march in russia commemorating the heroes of the 2nd world war has been called off to the pandemic it had already been postponed from its traditional
10:23 am
victory day day in may for more on this now and nor now joined live by donald. but this is such an emotional day for so many people it's going to be really disappointing but it seems like coronavirus is still continuing to change everyone's plans. yes well it was on monday that president putin officially canceled this year's immortal regiment march after consulting with the executive committee organizers who released an official statement of course citing the pandemic as the main reason for that they said that there would be no way to keep the participants safe from infection weird with so many people in one area and the. co-chair also stated that social distancing would be contrary to the spirit of the event as usually people of all generations are marching shoulder to shoulder to commemorate the country's veterans but in place of an actual march internet event was held throughout much of may in which people sent photos of their relatives who had fought in the 2nd world war there to remember
10:24 am
their contribution now the immortal regiment is an annual procession that takes place in cities all over the world and in russia at 1st it was postponed only until september but the pen demick hasn't exactly died down as soon as officials had hoped for now this mortal regiment march is also often associated with victory day on may 9th during which there's a military procession on red square that was also postpone this year but they did manage to go through with it on june 24th better late than never of course but next year's immortal regiment is planned already to take place on its normal traditional day on may 9th let's just hope by then this pandemic will be done and over with while on the plus side it means that there's going to be much more anticipation for next year's events that was done for to many thanks reporting from moscow. and finally while the pandemic has seen some unite in the fight against the virus it's
10:25 am

10:27 am
code 9000 prevention treatment claims. pandemic is something that so outside of people's control is something even outside the marketplace of ideas so of course these companies are going to try to maximize and lie about these different products and we need some sort of mechanism in place in order to protect people 5000000 americans of lost health insurance in the wake of the co-op at 19 and like you see more and more companies in various to part ways trying to profit off of this busy economic system the current way that things are the establishment. and always finds a way to profit off of the misery of people you know whether it was to do it as a new financial crisis or a pandemic or anything of the sort you still see those at the top continue to get richer while the rest of us continue to be exploited one way or another that's a wrap for this hour i'll be back at the top for the very latest to tide you over
