'd in the program a key source in the discredited trump collusion report from 2016. bar room conversations. with stories from the past 7 days and right up to the moment of elements of well this is the weekly r t international hello and welcome. let's start new us with donald trump stance on

how to quell on rest remaining inconsistent the president's no agreed to poll federal troops from violence hit portland authorities there pleaded for him to deescalate actions after a crackdown on black lives matter protests which how about times erupted into riots city officials say the trauma team had gone too far 6. was.

well this all comes on the bulk of a host judiciary committee hearing at the beginning of the week which lead bear the political divisions of the protests and how differently there are viewed by one rioters an anarchist hijacked legitimate protest to wreak senseless how they can destruction on innocent victims we've seen mothers and we've seen veterans who were peacefully protesting not threatening the federal courthouse beaten against people aren't showing up because the troops say they're shaming used to bore and i just say mr iemma you cannot just in time is expired our correspondent double quarter has been looking at how the world's policeman is struggling to keep the peace on its own streets. politics a catalyst for social unrest on both sides of the barricades especially in portland protesters have armed themselves and attacked federal agents in turn trump's

administration has deployed heavily armed soldiers to put a lid on the situation now the city's mayor is calling for a truce. commissioner joanne hardesty and i are calling for an immediate meeting with department of homeland security leadership on the ground in portland and with the acting secretary of the department shadow both to discuss a cease fire and removal of heightened federal forces from portland a cease fire with its own citizens is the u.s. crossing over the line from social unrest to something more serious judge for yourself. some are calling this trumps electoral battlefield and he is calling in reinforcements perhaps to maintain his persona as

a law and order president as the violence continues to snowball today i'm announcing a surge of federal law enforcement into american communities plagued by violent crime who will work every single day to restore public safety protect our nation's children and bring violent perpetrators to justice but seattle's liberal mayor is blaming trump for the mayhem and in fact i think the president's actions have directly escalated and worst responsible for what happened this weekend i was just talking to a number of mayors throughout the country who saw a similar thing that people wanting to act out against the president and his administration coming to the streets and other mayors from across america are also calling out trump to congress this is ministrations egregious use of federal force and city jackson forward to this should never happen. who knows if democrats and republicans will ever see eye to eye on what's happening if you listen to what both

sides are saying about the unrest it's like they're talking about 2 different events violent rioters and anarchists have hijacked legitimate protests to wreak senseless havoc in destruction on innocent victims federal agents dressed in military fatigues and toting military gear have tear gas to peaceful protest is made unlawful arrest without probable cools and otherwise used violence in an effort to stamp out peaceful and constitutionally protected protests washington is quick to flag social unrest in other countries and the so-called anti-democratic crackdowns that follow when the same thing happens on u.s. soil will americans get their democracy. a daughters of bitchery to her father who died in june from co would have spurred a campaign for change in america's health system she called side politicians for a lock of leadership accusing them of jeopardizing the lives especially among people of color who are statistically more likely to die from the virus no she's

collecting the stories of similarly affected families to push for change and reduced it by dad work woke up june 11th with cough and a fever and just wasn't feeling well he had really bad exhaustion unlike you've ever had before and my mom called me to tell me why it was going on and i told her mom i sounds like he has coronavirus at least the symptoms are so we worked to get him scheduled for a task the next day which he got that test but we never got those test results back because he had to be taken to the hospital because his condition got worse before his test results were back and then when he was admitted into the hospital is when we officially learned that he was tested positive for our current virus luckily when he 1st got to the hospital there. so you know he was responding. well to the

treatment of oxygen he had a couple of convalescent plasma treatments from. early on and was on antibiotics you know he was in a normal room for about 10 days before he suddenly took a turn for the worse and had to be taken to the i.c.u. and put on a ventilator and shortly there after he passed away the doctors were you know completely shocked that he had just deteriorated so quickly you know it was a shock obviously to me as well especially given my dad's attitude and that just a few days before he had been saying you know i'm i'm excited to come home on monday and that would have been 29th of june and he actually ended up passing away on june 30th. well while we were speaking to kristin the united states recorded 1462 new deaths all day that is the highest daily increase since may

in total virus has claimed more than 157000 american lives and that means roughly every minute one person dies from cold but 19 in the u.s. for the states of are is owner of the great picture either that is were kristen the late father or from by the way on thursday it recorded 172 new krona virus that's again a single day record there the state governor though is convinced everything is heading in the right direction but emergency rooms are seeing a darn word trend in patients with covert symptoms but for kristen that focus on the statistics is part of the problem. the trumpet ministration has been downplaying the severity of the price crisis since day one they haven't been doing their jobs you have a quarter needed response to minimize risk while still preserving the economy they've been driving home that's also narrative that you have to pick one or the

other and that's simply not true oh it's you know morally you know not correct at all tat just you know forget that there are real people behind that number it's you know i was thinking about this yesterday as i was reflecting upon the number and today marks the wine month anniversary of my father's passing in king about there's one 149999 of their families out there that are feeling what i feel and we are currently in a situation where countless others are about to feel the way that i feel. let's bring you back across the atlantic now where a london mother is accusing police there of racially profiling her family after her 12 year old son was taken from their homes during the night and one cuffed by officers because his toy pistol who was suspected of being the real thing mena

talked us through what up. that midnight on that far they just crossed over into i'd say early i was in the morning and we've been absolutely in the living room and you know cause i went to the door i followed him and we just missed it with you know about 4 or 5 offices holding why phones and they had spies is red beams you know on our bodies our heads. that that's something out of the movie and i said but you hands up you know which i did. all of us did to her daughter as you sit on the stairs. in front of me which is. explained to them i haven't got any firearms that have any illegal in the house my son the joke was on. you have no shoes on and they just arrested him immediately and. officers descended on the family's home with

sniffer dogs and phone 12 year old has pellet toy gun the raid occurred after a passer by alerted police seeing a black male holding a firearm on the sofa was seen through the living room window the guy's mother say's the metropolitan police racially profiled her family which she states has never been in trouble with the law london police chief say there has been no misconduct that the boy was let go when it was clear the toy gun was not a real firearm that said the case is still being referred to the independent office for police conduct kai's mother described the effect it's had on her family. at least i was angry as well once. in a way then that feeling of you know why you 'd are not involved. now i'm home 'd on

a friday evening 'd in a round about way they just said before the well you know 5 hours supports take them seriously we have to follow that mark which i mean agreement with we just disagree on how they voted but mainly they would say you know this is the gang related crime in the area the fact that clive was a male there was a mention of him being a black male obviously you know liverpool all the face things you know they take very seriously. the cheek the superintendent and he started talking about operation trident he started talking about you know getting laid quiet and making those associations and he read me out of school that was made by the possible and there was very little evidence there were 2 but it was the fact it was a black man. from casinos to hotels to office blocks the name trump is plastered on many prime addresses but is really selman named after

the u.s. president as a fine tooth for his backing in a territorial dispute is looking much less respondent ortiz polis near went along to see for yourselves. what is president trump love more than seeing his name in golden letters on a big sign praise in recognition of what would say and here in northern israel he's got both trump heights in the middle of nowhere and thank you from benjamin netanyahu to his american body for doing what most of the international community would not recognize this is the golan heights as part of israel you have been an incredible friend for israel and you've done extraordinary things for the jewish state which we are eternally grateful to much fanfare and celebrations you might imagine an idyllic place but the 1st thing you see is the settlement gate which doesn't close completely and there's a gap here through which i can just go into the but jari gets into it and then you find that no boulevard or fancy entrance leading into the village instead of hot

overgrown with weeds and piles of stone a far cry from what you'd expect the entrance into trump heights would look like when you think of a place not even a 2nd chance you see this this building used to be the common law say to the regional village for him and now 80 although he's been a fantasy name change a new settlement has filtered tracked many residents today less than a dozen lives here and right now no one seems to be. so alone is there any one poem hello. israel captured this territory from syria during the 19676 day war and later and mexted 981 now most of the international community considers that annexation illegal and does not consider the golan heights as part of israel locals don't take it seriously either and if i think it's not a good location it's very hard it's a neglected area and i simply don't know why people go to live there for us it's

a job still going to this is going to want to see because we think it's all roads are going to get. sued. anybody who does a visit to court is this is an american issue. going to. face or a government says plans are underway to eventually house $300.00 families but in the years since trump prices beeman overrated nothing's been done maybe it doesn't even matter the un has been bestowed the facts on marginal after all we live in an era of fake news as president trumped likes to say. trump heights northern israel. this is arch international school but it's a new start you in south korea dedicated to the memory of korean girls forced into sex slavery during world war 2 cultures are bridge over its perceived resemblance to the japanese prime minister.

you can't be both with the yeah you like. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy going foundation let it be an arms race in this on off and spearing dramatic development only personally i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk.

join me every thursday on the alex i'm unsure and i'll be. yes well the world of politics or business i'm show business i'll see you. again statue in a garden inside korea has reignited on resolve bitter wartime dispute with japan it shows a man kneeling in front of a girl whose symbolizes military sex slaves euphemistically called comfort women from japan's imperial colonial era nearly a century ago but what's really out to japan is that the man looks a little like prime minister shinzo are by himself no stranger to inflaming the

dispute japan say if it is based on it it will seriously impact relations with south korea do. i think such a thing is unforgivable in terms of international courtesy if the reports are accurate it will have a decisive impact on japan south korea relations well the bigger issue behind this is over reparations for the so-called comfort stations they were used from 932 to the end of the 2nd world war and women were lured by the offer of work only to be forced into providing sexual services to japanese imperial army soldiers it is thought around 200000 mostly korean women were in slaved or attempts to resolve their disputes over the years have been slow a treaty to try and normalize relations came abide in 1985 but it took japan until 993 to finally apologized and mitt about the women were forced into sex

slavery by 2015 a formal apology a new deal was agreed with the fund to compensate victims. but it didn't go far enough for many in south korea enough deal to almost fell apart dr simone chillun from northeastern university in south korea believes raising awareness about the issue is more important than political disputes i personally don't need to have any major. national. unless it's a pair want to politicize issues i wonder why there is an. escalating this issue remember there is a. national. geo holes in it is ideology and. crime against humanity that's a. really really only. policy

on common compensations. but on the issue of this in my own mind. and raise awareness when there is. a crime against humanity i think that is the more important the actually. the conscience. prime minister. has. a secret quote sub source for the notorious private intelligence report which failed to link donald trump to russian collusion in 2016 being revealed and it turns out it's a us resident rather than the supposed russia based source as he also explains a sizable chunk of the dossier seem to rely on chutzpah tween drinking buddies. it was a dossier that some prophesies would spell doom for donald trump as president and as a human being with any shred of decency the document penned by still spread like wildfire

across the media spilling way beyond the u.s. borders the dossier the dossier that controversial document it alleges overt knowing collusion while unconfirmed accusations was. to cool the file salacious would be an understatement the claim that trump hired prostitutes to pee all over a bed at a luxury moscow hotel simply because the obama's once slipped in was just one of the highlights but trump's enemies believed wanted to believe after all the mysterious incognito informant was said to have infiltrated the in a most of russia's circle well turns out the russians was in fact a bar fly in the us former journalist and now analyst igor dungeon go apparently

admitted that he got his information from people he was hitting the bottle with primary subsurface and source for drink heavily together and source for always looks forward to getting together with source for when primary sub sources in town are you when go as far as calling him an alcoholic but it looks like some might dungeon go might have boozed so hard it even got him into legal trouble but nobody's perfect the f.b.i. thought a little party never killed nobody the state department agreed delirious drunken drivel you might say but america needs to know he has a fellow with information united states government should have some lawyer when he developed the information relating to 2016. there's assault on our democracy and interference in our elections he felt it was important that the us government be aware of it and you'd think that the revelation about the sources credibility or

rather the lack of it would be the main line in the us media but who am i kidding the new york times for instance confirming the sources identity a whole week after the story broke has been fanning suspicion about artie's website for publishing the story on time a news website posting news the outrage russian is always the eternal bogeyman in the american media no it's not quite sure why but it's been that way since the cold war and they've refused to let go of it it's go to berlin so most democrat voters most media people were journalists we really know what the point of . trying to clues in russia not existing cruiser with russia might be how that might jeopardize national security they just see a scary word like russia and they run with that with the election less than a 100 days away who knows maybe another installment will cool out of the woodwork

to feed the intelligence rumor mill. germany is on the way to completely facing a coal powered by b. you're 2038 however it's not done with fossil fuels just yet in fact one mine is about to expand muscly that's left locals fearing for their old. my. i have a cello is it on to physical or w e is terrorizing as they try to drive us out of our homes using psychological terror and pressure they try to make life difficult for us by destroying roads and destroying houses which is often.

a case for another go i am very disappointed by the government and politicians they are avoiding responsibility and support are more than i asked i have the feeling that they don't care what happens to us they want the villages to be demolished they are only interested in the profit that could make it's sad to see that traffic comes before human rights before people's feelings and before the environment it's all about money. my. yeah that of that is for me the whole exit is not really a coal exit if you were allowed to continue to mine coal and also the 630000000 tons beneath our villages then this is not a real exit but a lure that ensures that coal mining goes on we as villagers would not be asked

about the laws we never had a say in it that is why we are against it and will not abide by it we want the coal to stay here in the ground and the house is hand not to be torn down. now with the presidential election fast approaching in the u.s. we ask the question next how much power do corporations hold over those vying to take control of the white house stay close this is our team international. i know team no crowd. no

shots. actually helps me. with a strap no arrests. which your thirst for action. how can you explain love i've been to 82 countries i did in 12 but i came here and on those 3 days i just filled with hope. and he kept pretty isn't it sick show. i made my decision to come here because i felt a new i could build a new life serious. companies and. i was a free man but i think god decided that this money is no good to be free while pro-style it if at all. did you see it i was aware my one dream is that all my

children 'd find the same kind of happiness i do. i love my home here i love cold weather i like the culture i like the history i like everything about it almost. thought i was i know that. i am a russian fama. we had a period of time where we had 7 and a half miles of mills a cake continuous 7 and a half miles of mills there's none left now ok and all in all i manufacture. this country all these things and i blame it on the politicians it's the establishment it's washington d.c.

they've got their little click they've got their thing. they don't care about anything else. and it doesn't matter democrat republican they're all the same they're all i'm sorry to use that language but. they're in there for one thing they're in there to get elected. the reason donald trump's in there is because he's a celebrity or he did this or he did that he is in there because he is not one of them and we are so frustrated. we had to vote him in if donald trump goes away we'll find another trump believe me we'll find another one the people dreamed this couch the people built this cut and it's the people who are making america great again.
