5:03 pm
am. were present back or has refused to step down over this comment which would perhaps defuse this situation and he has been accused of whipping up anti muslim sentiment and that's because in the wake of that terror attack there has been a crackdown on muslim associations and of mosques that are all said to have extremist sympathies here in france and there's already been some repercussions seen with attacks being investigated including attack that took place last week in order in the west of france and that was against 2 jordanians a brother and a sister who were quite hospital treatment they. see they were attacked because they were speaking arabic now the charge against present macron has been led by the turkish president president hu on who suggested twice in recent days that matter corn needs a mental health track but even here in france some muslim association say that they

director of the old could center for political studies in for years porous instructor will be seen as being directed against islam not just radical islam islam. it seems that we are dead in the back. of civilization and a struggle between really just this is not good for the partition between the 2 shoulder showed us of the need to today and this is a lot of problems. it's a relationship with. its mission with different fronts should be very much gentle differentiating between. these 2 groups met in the muslim community in the last 125 years and the muslim community is this different you mention very much in this video diary. and that spring in each of the us where donald trump is taking aim at his democratic rival joe biden accusing him of making millions and.
5:06 pm
he gets 3. hours from russia from the right of the bat out of moscow. 300. dollars right thank you betty given that he had no one coming no job no no. and yes he got 1500000000 from china i said to a friend of mine the biggest overall story 1st but i have said is that possible to get that he said it's not possible for my firm to get it and that was the big $110000000.00 a year for our introductory purposes. law school has rejected the claims that any money was exchanged while joe biden denies all allegations against him mr trump's remarks do come after bombshell reports of corruption and conflicts of interest within the biden family although similar claims have been made against the president to sifting through some of the waters not jockeying to get. no matter who
5:07 pm
wins the election in november both biden and trump are big names in politics now and their families will continue to cash in on that but hey they can't help who they're related to right take biden's son hunter if you don't live in a cave you've likely heard that he once served on the board of a ukrainian energy company while his dad was a v.p. now it's not exactly clear how much he pulled in there but reports say somewhere around 50 k. a month or more that point on his resume has cost his dad a never ending headache and he's both admitted that taking the position was probably a mistake and that he likely would have never gotten it if he wasn't biting there's a lot of things that would happen in my life to that if my last name wasn't biden did i make a mistake well maybe in the grand scheme of things yes but that's probably not the only business decision he regrets there's also the time he flew to china with his then vice president father on air force 2. i which didn't raise any eyebrows at the time biden brought
5:08 pm
family on foreign trips all the time but that's because back then that no one knew that hunter was forming a chinese private equity fund or that hunter met with a chinese banker who was his partner in the fund during the trip hunter's spokesperson says it was a social visit but that scheme was approved by shanghai authorities just days later and $100.00 didn't see any money from that until after his dad was out of office when he did it was over $400000.00 hundreds of business ties to china don't stop there but well let's move on to joe's brother james there's plenty to say about him but if we focus on one thing back in 2011 while joe was leaving the obama administration's iraq policy james was executive v.p. of a construction firm that landed a 1.5 $1000000000.00 contract to build houses in iraq the company denied that the vice president's position had anything to do with the deal but what do you make of this deja perot this is his name helps him get in the door but it doesn't help him get business people who have important names tend to get in the do easier but it
5:09 pm
doesn't mean success if he. the name of he would get in the door easier to be fair those contracts did fall through but it's things like that that makes trump jr say things like this the biden family is the most corrupt political family in american history i'm pretty sure that video is what pops up when looking for the meaning of the phrase the pot calling the kettle black because the trump kids are too and just fine control of the trump organization was handed to don jr and his brother eric by their father when he took office due to conflict of interest issues but in 2017 promotional materials from trump tower mumbai were not boasting of connection to quote us space real estate tycoon celebrity and potest donald trump the office of the president can't be used for personal benefit guys so the ads which are said to have been unapproved were pulled also put her fashion line into a temporary trust before taking a role in the white house and yet reports of her company having trademarks fast tracked keep cropping up she rubbed shoulders with xi jinping and the same day
5:10 pm
several new ones are approved and speaking of her fashion lines right after an appearance on 60 minutes alongside her father after his election it was jewelry company send out a blast promoting a $10000.00 bracelet from the line she was wearing during the interview it was promised the things that the company were still being sorted out after the election but it wasn't the 1st time that mix politics and business she previously used a speech at an r. and c. convention to her clothing line and there's also the fact that while trump was in the midst of an election his kids opened up trump international hotel in d.c. it's an honor to stand before you today and officially welcome to trump international hotel and tower washington d.c. and that has led several foreign dignitaries to come visit the president paying his kids for their accommodations all this never tism and what looks like selling access to powerful men runs a fine line when it comes to legality but man it's got to be great from their perspective. is it in europe. continues to grow over new covert
5:11 pm
rules although countries have stopped short of full lockdowns again people are choosing to challenge the restrictions currently in place the riots in barcelona hundreds gathered in a central square ignoring a new nighttime curfew to protest against the state of emergency imposed across spain bins were also set on fire near the regional parliament. similar scenes and it's only where several cities saw a protest get out of hand in charin on the right of your screen smoke bombs were let off on bottles hurled up police while in milan riot officers resorted to using tear gas we got reaction from people in italy and spain to the measure. did it as you can see italy is rebelling this government has decided to suppress the italian people to starve them to death we hope that this government will fall soon one of. these a quite drastic measures but they are kind of in the middle it's not
5:12 pm
a real look down it's a look down by harv's. this makes me suspect that in the end the problem will transform from a cemetery issue into an economic one and that is where the real problem lies. but it was it's a disaster it will be devastating for many people and many families that work in the nightlife industry meanwhile in russia infection rates are soaring again recently hitting more than 16000 in a 24 hour period local authorities in moscow though are reluctant to return to a full lockdown taking us through developments here certainly a patrol. well we're russia still seems to be far from a full lockdown however the numbers aren't looking good at all we have a new record $16550.00 new cases of corona virus and that is just in one day and plus $320.00 deaths russia has not seen such numbers in the spring so this is the worst statistic since the outbreak of the
5:13 pm
pandemic the regions are suffering more and more and the government authorities are being forced to act so starting from this week all russians in all corners of the countries will be obliged to wear masks in all public places not everyone is happy though and this explains some difficult situations and instances like this one when the a public transport worker was attacked by a passenger for demanding to wear a mask and it's these kind of cases that once again show that the people aren't willing to come back to full log downs and they're sick and tired of the restrictions now here's something else the russian health watchdog has recommended instead of making it a rule for now the authority once the russian regions to shut the doors of bars and nightclubs from 11 pm to 6 am but for now like i said it's not an obligation in st
5:14 pm
petersburg this decision has already been made but moscow authorities for instance aren't willing to go that far just yet they have introduced a special q.r. code systems someone tests positive for covert then everyone else who was around that person will get a notification via s.m.s. that they need to be careful or that they need to go through a covert test the special hospital and southwest moscow that was 1st to begin treating coronavirus patients and this country has set up the largest cove it emerged. see and treatment unit and the country so this is good and bad news at the same time because this only shows that the demand for such units in the country is growing now if you look at russian regions for example and some are that's one of russia's biggest cities in between moscow and siberia medical students are being sent to help out the older generation and here is what we heard from some of them

5:19 pm
19 minutes into the program welcome back heralding a new conservative era for the u.s. supreme court donald trump's pick of amy coney as a new judge has been confirmed by the senate that leaves the court with 6 right leaning justices on 3 from the liberal side it was expected all democrats in the senate voted against sports appointment they were joined by one republican leaving the vote 52 in favor 48 against. the american people put their trust in you and their faith in you as you take up the task of defending our laws our constitution and this country that we all love the rush that i'm precedented confirmation of amy county barons as associate justice to the supreme court in the middle of an ongoing election should be
5:20 pm
a stark reminder to every american that your vote matters. barak becomes just the 5th woman appointed to the supreme court's on the 1st ever mother of schoolchildren to take the role l g b t in pro-abortion communities have voiced concerns over the views of the divide catholic but her colleagues claim she'll be a sympathetic and impartial judge however a presidential candidate for the socialist equality party joke is sure told me that the appointment is a blow for democratic right. and really one has to understand the ramming through of this nomination in the context of trump's electoral strategy because he certainly sees the supreme court as a critical element of his efforts to undermine the results of the election to maintain power whatever happens in the popular vote the democrats are really terrified of the development of a real popular movement begins from since we're a season there really covering up the far reaching significance of what the
5:21 pm
president of the united states is doing in threatening the process of the world itself the real question is the development of mass popular opposition not only to trump but to the ruling class policy that you represents a financial oligarchy in the united states but certainly the appointment of barry is a new hall mark in the destruction of democratic rights in the united states and a real warning to the working people in this country and throughout the world. a story we're keeping a close eye on today as well several american companies with major u.s. defense contracts are to face sanctions by china after beijing was under washington's recent multi $1000000000.00 arms sales to taiwan lockheed martin and boeing are among those facing restrictions. haven't you feel for. us arms sales to taiwan seriously violate the one china principle interfere in
5:22 pm
china's internal affairs and severely undermined china's sovereignty and security interests in the move or send the wrong signal to the taiwan independence a session is forces and jeopardize china u.s. relations as well as peace and stability across the taiwan strait china firmly opposes this. another aspect to note is that china plays a significant role in the profits of those american firms for example almost a quarter of boeing's 2800 revenue came from the country the chinese government sees tell you well as a renegade province while taiwan considers itself a sovereign nation the u.s. has supported taipei for decades seen as part of a wider geopolitical strategy to kuntar china colleagues r.t. america discuss the broader issue of the confrontation between the u.s. and china with author john perkins i almost get the sense that most countries smaller countries like
5:23 pm
a lot in america are helpless to the powers of these giant corporations and to a certain extent the u.s. government whereas in this case china is doing to the united states what most of those small countries have not been able to do to get my drift absolutely correct i think that's that's very sure and i think we have. white. china is a growing power and being accepted by many parts of the world well i think we made some very big mistakes once that union in 1991 and we had an opportunity to show the world how good capitalism and democracy could be and. mission nowadays are structural adjustment policies on countries who we need them won't we and their politics be consistent with ours or at least the you know our companies we don't really care we were dictators or. presidents as long as they open the door for us corporations but we made very very strong conditionalities china has made
5:24 pm
a point of not you know they're saying listen we want to we want to trade with these countries we don't care we're trying to governments they have and i mean you know i'm not justify one system versus the other on american i want to see us do a lot better but what i am saying is the. it's winning the hearts and minds of people because people resent their countries when their governments have rules imposed by other countries. calling famous classical composers by their last names only is sexist and it's racist that's according to the popular american online magazine slate they claim say plenty of pushback.
5:25 pm
was once last names a short turn to when there's no possibility of confusion. maybe it's because beethoven is so well known and doesn't need to be accompanied by his 1st name same with people who are so famous they can go by the 1st thing. i want to sit in on one of your ph meetings the stories that don't make the cut have to be better than what he published. i
5:26 pm
have no idea what that means. reagent why we don't say. the 1st name of wolfgang amadeus mozart is because we know mozart it's it's shorthand it's deference it's the fact that we are lazy sometimes we see bush tromp biden. i normally can at least see the root of the concern i don't understand this but if you said for example miss mozart and miss chopin they miss if there were women and you never said mr maybe you could say how come you call one miss and the other one by one name maybe just maybe the reason why we're hearing this is to have a big weight and condition and get this used to in sanity so that we don't react to any more where we are hit with the most pastors
5:27 pm
crazy lunacy you think there was anybody in colleges or schools or musicology who were saying they did it every time they see mozart again they're promoting white racism and homophobia i don't understand well if you'd like to have your say on any of this or a stories why not check out our social media pages where on twitter facebook instagram and you have been overturned this is 24 seventh's. normally speaking the role of the media is to inform the public this mission is now on hold large parts of the media landscape particularly big to believe should be to determine what the public can know and from those controlled speech police freedom
