i say very modestly that i have done more for the african-american community than any president since abraham lincoln. as black lives massive protests in the gulf this is a no show we look at how politicians are using the unrest in this year's election. to come on the merkel says russia's north stream to gas pipeline to get money must go ahead despite tensions over the alleged poisoning a prominent opposition figure alexina valmy and on the 1st anniversary of the teenager how he done u.k. authorities consider a virtual trial for the wife of a u.s. diplomats accused of killing him and then fleeing the country. she was the last person to risk it is absolutely clear that the united states government let's not
10:01 am
argue for a legal or moral director. under survey if you can media finds muslims get disproportionate coverage in terrorism stories despite other groups being far more likely to commit attacks. that are just gone 5 pm here in moscow you watching the international protesters close to the white house attempted to shout down donald trump during his speech on the final night of the republican party congress on both phones and chanting loudly hundreds try to disrupt the event a number were carrying black lives matter banas but that didn't stop the president from claiming that he's done more for black people than almost all of his predecessors. say very modestly that i have done more for the african-american community than any president since abraham lincoln our 1st republican president.
10:02 am
and i have done more in 3 years for the black community then joe biden has done. in 47 years we will when i'm reelected the best is yet to come through from space that did come is furious black lives matter protest has once again poured on to the streets of can osha in the wake of sunday's police shooting of a black man would have warning you might find the following footage disturbing. was cool thanks. thanks. chris who who ooo cuckoo cuckoo.
10:03 am
cuckoo and reports now on how can i show has become a crucial poem in the election reiss. cars burning guns firing people looting images that have become all too familiar in the united states as of late anarchy in action on the streets has got politicians pointing fingers at each other republicans are even staking their reelection efforts on a tough law and order stance saying that democratic governors have let the situation get out of hand. when failed to fish rules in cities like port with minneapolis chicago and new york make a conscious decision not to support law enforcement to violence and bloodshed we are seeing in these and golden city you see it isn't happening by chance it's
10:04 am
a direct result of refusing to allow law enforcement to protect our communities leftist try to turn that meant developments they want to cancel them. but i'm here to tell you these heroes can't be canceled from seattle and portland to washington and new york democrat run cities across this country are being overrun by violent mobs those statements from the south dakota governor did not make it past leftist media which called for a reality check we will interject when we feel like there's something that's important and deliberate and very wrong that should be corrected just so that we feel responsible about our broadcast other news outlets got much the same for suggesting local authorities are responsible for the violence how shocked are we that 17 year olds with rifles decided they had to maintain order when no one else would this goes beyond racism tucker carlson is advocating and defending murder how
10:05 am
shocked are we that tucker carlson is praising a murderer as some kind of vigilante hero democrats are taking those blame claims and throwing them right back in the face of conservatives saying that they're the ones that ferment it they hate to begin with the question for us this concern is when are we going to make republicans do their jobs when do we continued sit idly by and watch the sede burn to the ground. our nation is hurting we need leadership that will heal our wounds not continue to pour salt on them peaceful protest against police violence should not be met with more violence and yet that's exactly what the president called for after the death of george floyd and here at home as george full oid briana taylor and a never ending list of innocent people of color continue to be murdered stating the simple fact that a black life matters is still met with derision from the nation's highest office as
10:06 am
media and politicians blame each other some us citizens are taking up arms on their own in juneau shit wisconsin a teenager said to worship the police went to a protest and opened fire on the crown 2 people were killed the local police then shined in on their own saying that the victims were to blame because they were on the streets in violation of curfew laws but this is not a police action this is not the action i believe of those who set out to do protests it isn't all it is the persons who are involved after the legal time involved in illegal activity that brought violence to this community this teenager is not the only one right wing militia groups and black self-defense organizations have sprung up across the country while politicians point a finger the situation on the streets is only getting worse across the country people are bracing for turbulent times ahead i think there's
10:07 am
a political game going on on the side and both sides you've got the democratic side trying to to blame the president for curing racial unrest and i don't know flowing through that and you've got you've got the republican side saying that especially the pin pointed the finger at democratic leaders and democratic city is that the leadership there is not take me appropriate action. no law and order and so there needs to be a middle someplace we do need law and order we need to provide security and safety for family security for our businesses especially small businesses i feel so bad for small but with they were so hit by the coronavirus and those are the ones already being impacted a lot on the violence in the city unfortunately the real situation but both parties are using it as a political weapon. german chancellor has rejected calls to put the north stream to gas pipeline project with russia in the wake of the alleged poisoning of the key
10:08 am
russian opposition figure. with more his. unsurprisingly coronavirus dominated the chancellor's summer press conference but she did also have time to talk about bello reduce the ongoing dispute between greece and turkey in the eastern mediterranean. proposals for quotas on women in senior positions in her christian democratic union party if you're wondering where chancellor merkel stands on that she's very much in favor there was time for a question on alexei no violently as well the russian opposition figure remains in a hospital here in berkeley and following an alleged poisoning angle of merkel said germany was not in a position in order to clarify what had happened to alexei in the valley as it stood and would be waiting for a joint statement from the european union it's we're trying to clarify things in
10:09 am
the new through our own abilities which are in fact limited when we have more clarity like in the case of miss this groupon who will try to forge a reaction on the european level alexina valley has been here in berlin since last saturday he remains in an induced coma doctors at the shot at a hospital where he's being treated say that there remains no acute danger to his life but that they can't tell what long term effects of this this illness will be on the opposition figure now his poisoning has prompted some to call on germany to ditch the north stream to gas pipeline project but i'm increasingly convinced the germany should pull out of the nord stream to project russia's president putin is turning increasingly into a dictator who persecutes opponents including by means of poisoning attempts the poisoning attack on the russian opposition leader must lead to targeted reaction the baltic sea nordstrom to should not go into operation the project which would
10:10 am
take russian gas directly from russia into germany is a multi 1000000000 in euro or operation the german chancellor says. it's going ahead as it stands. i think that we should do couple these issues and in our opinion north stream 2 should be completed that chancellor merkel is steadfast in saying that germany's by turning the use energy security should not be politicized there is some interest from the united states and this is you would imagine the u.s. alternately wants to sell europe its own liquefied natural gas and not see senators from the united states put forward sanctions against companies involved in building the gas line project the thing is ultimately they want to sell their old liquefied natural gas which is more expensive and that doesn't seem like it's going to happen anytime soon this pipeline is going ahead despite the political tensions surrounding it. now a year since 19 year old harry dunn was killed the u.k.
10:11 am
attorney general the american woman accused of running him over and them fleeing abroad could face a virtual trial he died when his motorbike was hit by a car reportedly being driven on the wrong side of the road behind the wheel was and sukhumi this the wife of a u.s. diplomat charged with causing death by dangerous driving she'd already fled the country claiming diplomatic community the dun family is seeking a private prosecution too against britain's foreign secretary after it was revealed that u.k. officials had allowed the american to leave the country are we to parents say that they won't give up their fight for justice and they spoke to r.t. shadi edwards dashti. the hardest thing for me is having no control over when you're going to cry and i have to camilla big i. don't show emotions are easy but since i was going it can cite the most smallest thing i know i'll just start crying
10:12 am
or car stop myself. as much film. the frustration i feel because our current congress wrote it only feels like yesterday since they put kerry stay. the same lane. nobody. can. feel like. harry spammy are fighting to bring securitas back to the u.k. to face justice 6 months after his death she was charged with death by dangerous driving but britain's extradition request was rejected by the u.s. it's been a tough tough battle for this family we've had to not just climb mountains but move mountains because having now closed the loophole the legal loophole that allowed her to escape she was the last person to escape it is absolutely clear now that the united states government does not have either a legal or moral dog to stand on the authorities and the system completely let her
10:13 am
respond they down this family lost their son and they were treated like dirt on the bottom of their shoe that legal loophole allowed secure lists to claim diplomatic community as the wife of a u.s. staff member but after discussions between the u.s. and u.k. family at the base can now be prosecuted going forward thankfully with the harry done and then then in the trace a few weeks back absolutely every a shows us is the family that know what the family would have to fight it's the way we have nobody else now it's the crime such as well and skilless has done and walk free is a proud thing to know that i was not. it is part of the new rule in history books thankfully that cherry's some of ours legacy now but despite that deborah of hope it doesn't help a charlatan tim get justice for harry himself in the promised land mates when when
10:14 am
we lost him that night just the desire in the pit of your stomach to complete that promise. take you tell you a poor way you look at me to get injustice when he's layin the. life left in him. literally every bone in its body. every organ damage to the point we couldn't even to open to a nation and someone has to be held responsible for that nobody in this world should be able to take a life i walk away a year on from harry's death the family is still on able to come to terms with the loss. of my users. are truly may not reverse the special special not. the lust for loss enjoyed life enjoyed meeting people he was larger than life the space that was he
10:15 am
was he what. could have been more power for a so just before last the promised goal. of the 10. percent interest that you. must be told because you go to the system away inside and out and. back it could. still not quite. able to track you. on the wall. and you know that that. and you can't. fortunately international now a new report has accused british media of disproportionately focusing on terror attacks that are carried out by muslims even though attacks carried out by white supremacists and the n.r.c. is a more frequent those perpetrated by muslims get 9 times the coverage muslim council
10:16 am
of britain did note however the imbalance has improved since the christchurch and el paso attacks where muslims were the victims we discussed the report with one of its authors what we've done is not make assumptions we have got very detailed analysis and statistics that we're prone from monitoring the media on a daily basis and looking at how they report on it and we've compared very similar attacks committed by so-called muslim perpetrators and those by the far right and white supremacists and found that there's been a huge inconsistency and difference in the way those attacks are are covered there's far more of a. willingness on the part of the media to use the terms terror terrorist or terrorism exclusively for muslims and it's very rare that they use it for far right we see a rise of hate crimes you know even after christ's church when muslims were the
10:17 am
victims the the rates of hate crimes increased in britain and even in the coverage of christchurch we show that the media tried to find an angle which brought it back to trying to blame the muslims so you know these attacks not as a result of muslim terrorist attacks all you know rather um so-called muslim grouping gangs. well farai terror attacks are on the rise with muslims off than the victims the mass shooting at a mosque in christchurch north of the el paso attack in texas are 2 prominent examples along with the recent shooting at a she should bar in germany in which 11 people died now at the same time the number of attacks by muslims and western countries have been falling and experts to attribute that to the recent the escalation of tensions in the middle east well as it stands far right extremist to carry out almost 3 times more terror attacks in the west than is the miscreants although more than 60 percent of terrorism instance
10:18 am
are not attributed to any group at all however the disproportionate reporting of them does have consequences organizations should have clear definitions of what terrorism is make them transparent and then be consistent in their use of it the repercussions of this that not only in terms of hate crimes that increase against muslims but it's the impact this has on social media so when a mainstream organization makes this point it's out. you know and spread to millions and millions of people because the start right uses this kind of coverage to amplify their troops and their anti muslim rhetoric and so it's very dangerous. rushes in libya committee has sacked the head of the country's anti-doping agency abuse arthur committee's decision comes after an investigation did expose alleged financial violations committed by you woody garners something he denies so let's
10:19 am
get more details now from our correspondents ask you taylor who joins us good evening to saskia. a scandal never too far away from a new start over recent years and again another one for them to deal with. well exactly we know the russian support it's been a bumpy couple of years and now another big development in the country's sporting world on friday it was announced that the chief of the russian agency it was started as it's known has been dismissed now 56 year old yuri janice was actually appointed director general of the body back in august 27th teams if you really mustn't be long in the post but that sadly announcement wasn't entirely out of the blue given that a recommendation for his dismissal was actually put forward by a startled board of this month today we once again look to the arguments made by the supervisory board codes the report of the order to and the
10:20 am
general director a year again miss after carefully considering the arguments we decided to accept the recommendation to remove mr ganis the decision was taken unanimously. so what's not to best well again as has been accused of overseeing serious financial violations and this ridge into light after that financial check caused doubt over the completeness and indeed the reliability of an audit that had initially been submitted by ghana's from south now some were saying for example that he was using the agency's funds for the possible taxis english lessons and when he said he was on a business trip abroad he was actually on holiday but that really added up because it suggests to be here present preached around $110000000.00 rubles that's around $1500000.00 u.s. dollars so that's the key issue here though backhaul also been rumors of abuse of all of power and indeed a conflict of interest now for his part ghana says his dismissal was wrong decision
10:21 am
and he has previously and continues to deny all allegations saying that an attempt not just to discredit him possibly but also to undermine it restarted efforts to rebuild international trust in the wake of course of the mass doping allegations of satin washington track and field athletes back in twenty's worries them of course and it's not clear to me on what grounds it's being recommended that i be fired or resigned as strongly denies the conclusions of the audit of the russian olympic and paralympic committees decide to fire me it will change our relations and aggravate the situation in russian sport. just we can understand the role of for a start and why this is actually an important decision so we thought it was really a link between the wild and see what and russia so it's crucial to try to communication and ensuring that there is dialogue between home and implored and ensuring that russians war is represented on the international state in
10:22 am
a statement what to say except it's not an decision and sat at the same time reiterated that restart it must remain an independent body in the future it also added that the 2 bodies are in constant contact about any to batman's we'll have to wait and see who comes to fill dances shoes that's a decision that will likely come within the next month or 6 months rather so but i do i think we can all agree that no one will and in that role because it's clearly a very difficult time for russians or. ok thank you as artists ask taylor reporter . i don't trump is officially accepted the republican party's nomination to run for a 2nd term he pledged to make america safer and stronger during a speech that wound up the party's convention but opponents to say the event ignored the president volatile reality on the ground. well i think the convention to this point has been spectacular especially when you put it up against the fiasco
10:23 am
that was the democratic convention last week i think you know i i feel for both the producers of both parties to have a virtual convention is tough to do you don't get the energy from the from the audience you don't get the applause lines you don't get the standing ovation so it's tough but i think the speakers this week have been spectacular from herschel walker on the very 1st night to the speakers last night the people that that know president trump and were able to speak directly to the american people about who he is as an individual i think that was very powerful you know if i've been on the moon for the last 2 years i just dropped in today geez i would i would never know that we have 11000000 people unemployed we have about 180000 people who died of this virus with 1100 a day i would not know at all that she not only were unemployed but we have about 8000000 households that face a vision or foreclosure in the next 60 days of i went to
10:24 am
a church of scientology maybe don't ask me why and you know i got there it was l. ron hubbard and there was apostles and you know i got to go to the moon there was an alternative reality at the same time the rodney king riots were going on in l.a. and that was perfect to me well the country is essentially facing these existential threats you hear nothing about they used the word coded 6 times in the last 2 days for all the speakers we heard nothing about 10000000 unemployed we heard nothing about these and we heard nothing about what he has done to enhance our suppress that this is bread and circus we're donald trump does best he's not a president he's a game show reality show host and he's fabulous at it honestly i watched most of the democrat debate and i didn't hear one person talk about the riots in democrat cities and democrat states around the country i didn't hear the fact that these democrat mayors every one of them seattle portland chicago they've all endorsed joe . so if you want to talk about the devastation that's happening in america look at
10:25 am
the democrats look at what they are doing to america by encouraging this and supporting these riots and not bringing down now working with the president to bring in national guard when the president actually wanted to help them and bring put down these riots they said no we'll take care of it ourselves and then the city councils in those democrat cities voted to defund the presidents and allow the rioters to continue to have a free wheeling. right to just go and destroy their towns that they live in that's not trump spot but interviewed donald trump many times i understand who he is what he's going to do is he's going to do some rigamarole the obvious scates everything that's gone on in the last 6 months and then he'll just go into the you know tantrum that works that it would all be better if i could just have more of this all would be better if i have more of this it's all the great if what we would just get rid of all these left wingers and let's forget about everything that's gone on in my career that's what he's good at. now recently the president did pay
10:26 am
a compliment to the election live which i biden saying he did ok in his debate back in the spring with the democratic rival than he saw trumping trump couldn't resist a little dig and is not questioned whether biden's performance had been in terms. and. you go back and watch some of those rumors debates he was so big he wasn't incoherent. and against bernie he was. and were calling for a drug test. is not all there everybody knows it and i like the running it gets people that are weak mentally i think joe is the weakest up here now sleepy joe. go to joe 3 o 33 hole and soon this is great to be here and back here. you
10:27 am
