4:40 am
elvis is furious. with what los angeles has become in recent years. it's not a 3rd world country so are the richest countries in the world it's almost like a movie prop they don't it's hard to fathom that like every single day this is how people live. by the pandemic no certainly no borders just blind to nationalities. as a. world to be. judged as commentary classes until. we can do better we should.
4:41 am
everyone is contributing way but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever the challenges created the response has been so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we are in it together. sputnik 5 has the world. just like its namesake the original sputnik. the 1st craft to leave. orbit the world. many questions remain unanswered russia's new vaccine the authorities are confident enough to go forward with mass production. of explosions
4:42 am
4:43 am
los angeles is the symbol of the california dream the heart of hollywood cinema and the temple of luxury and yet today los angeles is the homeless capital of america in the last few years the number of homeless people has increased from 33255000 beneath the business towers the situation has become. when i was a kid in lived here it was nothing like it is now i left for almost 2 decades and i came back a few years ago and it just it just blows my mind it's just going to increase because every month the cost of everything keeps going up there's no regulation so
4:44 am
. apartment owners and landlords can raise the money you know the rent. whenever they like but nobody's paychecks are getting bigger. outraged by the situation of these homeless people oldest gave up his job as a sales assistant he lives on the salary of his partner layout who works at the university in this way elvis can devote all his time to helping the homeless. a little further from downtown the woman has moved in beneath this bridge elvis and regularly pay her a visit. to 5. tami has been living here for 5 years in a small tent that she shares with another woman inside they are at the mercy of the dangers of the street they've already been assaulted several times but just look at everywhere they did they just tore right open and. now she doesn't even have
4:45 am
a door and she sleeps out here at night there's also no lights right over here so it's very dark and you know especially as a woman that's pretty damn scary even if a guy is it's scary thought he might walk up in the dark walk right and do whatever they want. to help these people elvis wants to do more than just bring them bottles of water his major project is hiding in the courtyard of his church he came up with the idea to build small wooden houses for them they're not big barely 4 square meters but inside elvis in libya have thought of every last thing to improve the daily lives of these homeless people. we do on and yes so what does it mean so if someone tries to open that window with
4:46 am
alarm. this phrase here allows people to sleep when people sleep they can think they can do better they feel better they want better the house is also equipped with a fire alarm a light and a phone charger all of which is powered by a solar panel. elvis thinks of everything to the last detail in order to give some dignity back to the homes it's really just psychological you know my my apartment has an address i'm sure your your place has an address that that's the ultimate goal most of the people i anyone that's homeless is treated like garbage you know once once you have that title you're you're screwed because people look at you like a monster or you know like someone batter you chose to be there or you're crazy or you know and it's most of the time it's not the case and so the. the little i mean it's so easy to dehumanize people but the little tiny things it's so easy to
4:47 am
bring that back to a person. each cabin costs 1000 euros financed entirely by donations collected on the internet but his generous initiative is illegal the mayor of los angeles has banned him from installing his cabins on the sidewalks of the city elvis doesn't care. and this morning he's going to deliver one of them to a homeless couple who very much needed them. hey i am out of us i am to stay nice to me choose their job brownie brownie crystal is 32 years old and his 3 months pregnant she lives on the curb of the sidewalk with her partner andrea 7 i know you would be the love and i go oh oh god made us i was hoping you were going to be gone that's the month. for 4 years now the couple have
4:48 am
been sleeping in this tiny wheeled cart that is swarming with bugs yeah man it's like bed bugs in the me do you eat me you eat me alive man i could feed you can everything he well he is a little bit more of me mostly not being able to have good hygiene. elvis does not . feel like hanging around the trick is to get this. get this done and off before the cops show up. but all the same the small house weighs 400 kilograms and the wheels remain stuck on the street. and. there are we going to use a neighbor and another homeless person from the neighborhood come to lend him a helping hand. to get. the people who are home. and start to bring him back out. and as soon as the home is set up other homeless people are begging him for
4:49 am
a small house back i have i have a couple more almost ready to go so. thank you thank you it's much appreciated. and that it was. no evidence. but his project does not quite make everyone happy once you go back in your house and enjoy their condition. a neighbor has come to express her discontent she's against this but she says she doesn't want in front of her house she's kind of police and so we need to free alarm and well pray that they're allowed to keep their house. this is how it goes. and los angeles. can. thank your luck to both of you congratulations. a few days after filming the police threatened elvis that they would destroy his cabin if he didn't remove it he decided to move it with the couple on to privately owned land. in the end the disgruntled neighbor won her case
4:50 am
. but some people are trying to fight the snubbing of the homeless people in fascinating ways for. we are heading to texas to puritan waco. this city has around 50 churches for its 120000 residents here once a month a religious community organizes a strange program people come from all over the united states to take part in it. but you never married know the idea of little but what do you know if you don't have we're going to be home. for 24 hours these high school students are going to
4:51 am
live eat and sleep like the homeless. much like 20 or so other participants all from middle class backgrounds each person has paid 60 euros to take part in this project janet darrelle came up with the idea 25 years ago the wife of a minister she's already accepted 30000 people to take part in this astonishing role play challenge the goal is to create compassionate care for him and he and comedy everybody if they're saying that one year track and poverty cycles of poverty and. thinking that. the cording to janet in order to truly experience the life of a homeless person you have to start by looking like them in this secondhand clothes store the participants are encouraged to dress like them because. i don't know i
4:52 am
don't know homeless people. wear these. yet can't get it but if. you can kind of fashion. jeans and be a little kid. but i think that. it is not that i. know that i'm happy about that for the moment it's not too demanding but it is going to get more complicated with the 2nd stage sleeping out in the open not in the streets but safely in this fenced yard. however 53 year old mother martha is slightly concerned. like it i'm scared of. i'm scared of bugs. she thought long and hard before signing up to the program it was her husband who convinced her to take the plunge it doesn't look like a real illness situation right right yes yes it does is. it doesn't
4:53 am
guarantee it that rats running everywhere yeah no it's definitely a luxury. yeah yeah. that is a comfort nevertheless and it won't be a very long night. everyone that's 6 o'clock in the morning janet darrelle gives everyone a wake up call and they don't look particularly well rested my mind martha. it's not real on this situation to say they're saving them being on the street but this is not as safe as being in their home with their family so it just gives them a little bit more reality of what living in the environment does on your body so by tonight takes about 24 hours to really start getting the idea that. this is this could be really rough. for the next stage of the program the participants are let
4:54 am
loose in the city center their task is to find something to eat on their own and without any money. you can smell the food. so. to me said i asked the sky. to take the things that have been struck. in waco like in many other cities in the united states begging is a punishable offense it's also forbidden to rummage through the garbage cans there's nothing in there. they are owned by the city and reclaiming anything at all is considered stealing in order to survive the homeless in waco are therefore forced to break the law and our 2 participants are not going to find anything to eat and after 2 hours of walking through the streets in 40 degree heat martha feels
4:55 am
faint. she must resort to calling her husband to the rescue. left feel like i feel like i'm too weak like i think you know like i'm too old and fat i can't do it you learn something about. what i would like what would be like to be. your age and be hard are americans truly ready to face up to poverty perhaps not their leader donald trump has recently announced that the rate of poverty is falling dramatically despite this 40000000 other spello citizens are still suffering its clutches. anybody who thinks that because i just won the election we are problems are over
4:56 am
simply not sure the problems were there for president trump they're not going away you have problems with the economy in the long run you're going to have huge debt pay for the things you're going to do 3rd we still have a problem in the united states which raises too many. or going to. jail for your own possessions or some of those problems are under or drop simply allowed me to do this not does not stop them. the us has a history complicated and heated presidential election what's different this time is that the biggest political events of the last 4 years is happening amid the coronavirus been damaged and the rest of them to the level of civil unrest sparked by the death of george floyd and the lies of the radical groups on both sides of
4:57 am
the political spectrum. right there with breaking the city ordinance. who say. these groups attract barely a week members who have taken to the streets make intro tasks look like full scale what you see here was only a taste of what's about to happen this demonstrators are sometimes heavily armed and they are not afraid of violence or law enforcement. if you will of war let it begin with us. we're going to meet those groups and their leaders to find out how far they're ready to go to fight for what they believe the student for this country. sputnik 5 has of the world. just like its namesake the original
4:58 am
sport. the 1st draft of a to leave the. orbit world sidewall many questions remain unanswered about russia's new vaccine the authorities are confident enough to go forward with mass production especially. what the family states please when. you receive. preliminary requests. all right this is happening. the window and the reaction has been exactly the same as it was. the world reaction is made. by you.
4:59 am
guys are survival guide next a single malt at the start. of. the show it's not going to get a. good citizen repatriations look at the rest of 70 years. of the separate kaiser report. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy. let it be an arms race. dramatic development only mostly. i don't see how. you sit down and
5:00 am
talk. you'll have a final declaration. of victory. but did not clear we're going to win this race stopping short of declaring victory democrat joe biden says he's on course for the white house his announcement comes despite some ballots counting continuing in keystone state. joe biden leads with 264 electoral votes to trump past 24270 is the magic number needed to win the presidency. total trump insists his rival has no right to quote wrongfully declare victory launching multiple lawsuits alleging electoral fraud the republican claims sudden flips it in joe biden space but a number of states also.
