a 2nd term media outlets have called the election for joe biden. but donald trump has yet to concede victory, and he's claiming the election was fraudulent. his team lose legal challenges in several states and demanded recounts one of those actually underway already in georgia where the race is too close to cool. though some republicans are raising concerns. they say that that recounts not being independently verified. the hand tally of the 2020 presidential race in georgia's 159 counties is under way the largest manual retaliate in the country's history. a hand count stems from an audit required by state law. according to the law, one race must be audited by hand to ensure voting. machines are counting ballots accurately. it began at 9 am friday and is expected to be complete by 11, 59 pm, wednesday. officials in nevada working to finish counting votes in clark county. although we still have work to do, the staff will be fully engaged friday, saturday, and sunday with reconciling all of the records that we have in place for all the
4:03 am
votes that were cast in clark county. and now the republican party, their resort, has filed a lawsuit looking for a recount of votes in maricopa county in a separate lawsuit. the arizona g.o.p. came together with the republican national committee and the trump campaign. litigation is looking to block certification of the state's election until affected ballots can be looked over by hand. was ok from supporters continuing their stop, the still rallies. thursday, demonstrators gathering in richmond, virginia. there was an even hour are not over for all voters are quiet that he was there for the president to learn about the order michigan were about to overturn wisconsin. were about to overturn. that's over, you know, they're going to find out really where the only reason there is good counting in georgia are in arizona or nevada is because prop still in that we the u.s. postal service whistleblower who shared information about backdating ballots in pennsylvania with project. there are toss was questioned by u.s.p.s.

investigators. richard hopkins says he stands by his initial claims to see that i did not repair my statements. after tweeting about the dominion voting machines, deleting votes, president trump tweeting friday morning, back 2020 was a rigged election. were 42 for the news with rick sanchez and tossed a sweet state officials and independents observe all said there is no indication of wrongdoing in the election in a letter to the trump of ministration. u.s. election officials called the 2025 the most secure in american history. however, a recent poll indicates widespread concern among voters that mail in voting could lead to fruit. our panel of guests discuss the issue. some bureaucratic agency saying they think it was the most secure election ever. that's fine, but we, the people have a right and a campaign has to get to the bottom of this. and if we get to the bottom of the process, the rule of law, the constitution this, that our founders knew how to set this up. we've had other elections where there
4:05 am
either was allegations of fraud or enough questions of fraud that they changed the election. so let's get to the bottom of it. let's see what happens. georgia has a republican governor, a republican cheap elections officer, 2 republican, great senators, republican senate, governor. it's all republicans involved in this vote count. so you're telling me that republicans are coordinated. it was fired against the president of the united states to create this, this loss that obviously is attributed now to going to truck in some state dept president obama is lecturing the american people on concession when hillary clinton and the democrats in congress never conceded to present trump, they never stop digging into him, but look out, all i'm saying is don't accept the results until we get to the bottom of it. then we should. the question is whether democrats would accept the results if we get to the point where we find big fraud. bottom line is it doesn't matter who's counting, it doesn't matter what litigation you have by law, by statute you cannot do is beyond december 8th. zimmer, 14 is
4:06 am
a day when the electoral college has to be and so those are 2 days i'm looking for . if anyone tries to violate those dates, now you're in a constitutional crisis and now you're impacting the transfer of power. that is constitutionally mandated by january 1, republican supporting trumps fraud allegations of putting democracy on a dangerous path. that's according to former u.s. president barack obama. but the u.s. election system has actually been questioned for decades. and holkins takes a closer look at the history of fraud allegations in u.s. elections. there's a common theme in the media when it comes to the possibility of irregularities in the u.s. presidential election. it's a ludicrous claim that really, chris every vote counts. but when someone gets enough votes to win, the loser concedes that is what happens in this country. described as unfounded ludicrous and baseless allegations made by president trump by his campaign team. remain just that allegations until proven otherwise in courts of law. but such
4:07 am
controversies and nothing new. all school president, barack obama, i come from chicago. so, so i want to be honest. it's not as if it's just republicans who monkeyed around with elections in the past. sometimes democrats have to. and his jerry, not another democrats on the current chairman of the house judiciary committee. in my experience in new york paper ballots are extremely susceptible to freud. your paper with no machines, i can show you, i can show you experience, which would make your head spin. it wasn't alone. the 2004 election saw concerns raised about multiple aspects of the voting process. on key swing state, ohio saw democrat candidate john kerry question whether the outcome represented the will of the voters and the d.n.c. chairman agreed. i'm not confident that the election in ohio was fairly decided. we know that there was substantial voter suppression and the machines were not reliable. it should not be
4:08 am
a surprise that the republicans are willing to do things that are unethical to manipulate elections. that's what we suspect has happened, and we'd like to safeguard our elections so that democracy can still be counted on to work. former u.s. president jimmy carter co-chair, the federal election reform commission, which states that in 2005, that mail in voting is fraught with the risk of ford and coercion. he's since backtracked on that plane, but remains scathing about elections in the united states. the american political system wouldn't measure up to any sort of international standards for several reasons. lack of central election commission capable of issuing uniform rules, lack of equal access to the media for all viable candidates. and the inability to conduct recounts the election process in america has of course come a long way. in the 19th century voting was controlled by gangs who would broadly bore, coerce voters. it looked something like this. and more for my boy to form an alliance
4:09 am
with you against bill cutting on his slate of late of his candidates. and some people, every irish vote you sent them a nice way in the coming elections. things became less violent and more nuanced in the 20th century. lyndon johnson ended up winning a primary. he was losing in texas by just 87 votes. all thanks to the last minute appearance of a ballot box full of votes for johnson. this pave the way to his rise in politics and later presidency. it was scandal at the time, but an admission it took years to emerge. james, and did not win that election. it was students for him. and i know exactly how it was done. the 2000 bush gore election controversy has been cited by some as a comparison to 2020. results in the deciding state will close with the supremes court giving bush the nod. but the result could have been a very different thousands of voters in florida were labeled felons, preventing them from voting. bush's brother also happens to be the state's governor
4:10 am
. no major law firm in florida worked for al gore, even democratic, even democratic oriented law firms. because everyone was afraid of the bush family and the governor and losing important state business in this election cycle could perhaps be summed up best by joe biden. himself, we have put together. i think the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of american politics. of course, this was just an ironic slip of the tongue biden was really talking about the democrats voter protection program. for many though, the issue with the presidential election 2020 may not be the result itself or even of trump's claims are all true or not. against the backdrop of election control was the spawning decades. it's the total dismissal and reluctance to even investigate the allegations that will continue to polarize voters for years to come. a former
4:11 am
special adviser to barack obama discussed what bud's foreign policy like. this was on the latest edition of the ladies going on the ground. do you think it's a mistake to see trump is some kind of bolt from the blue, someone who broke in a fundamental way with american traditions because trump's isolationism, his unilateralism, his protectionism, his racism, all of those actually buttes have very strong roots in american history. going back to the founders, going back to the late 17 hundreds. and in some ways, i think trump has demonstrated himself to be a very acute politician because he's been able to tap in to that different narrative that different version of american excess exceptionalism, america. and as the city on the hill that stands aloof from the world, not a country that goes out to change the world. and so right now,
4:12 am
i think as biden prepares to take office, we do see the country going through a searching debate about the nature of its role moving forward. and my own view is it's time for the country to find the middle ground between where it was in the pre pearl harbor era, which was doing too little and running away from the world where it has been more recently, which is drawing, trying to do too much particularly in the middle east, to find that stable middle ground to step back, but not to step away from one of the biggest global changes brought about by the pound, make his they must shift to working from home. millions of people will buy this thing away from they'll face a research is that germany's biggest bank is saying that those people should be taxed for the privilege working from home will be part of the new normal. when after the pandemic has passed, we argue that remote workers should pay a tax for the privilege our calculations suggest the amounts raised could fund
4:13 am
material income subsidies for low income earners who are unable to work remotely, and thus assume more old economy and health risks. the bank team is suggesting an additional 5 percent levy for remote staff. they argue it's roughly equivalent to what people save on transportation and food. adding the money could be very distributed to those who can't work online, many of whom are blue collar workers on lower incomes. the research estimate such a scheme would raise around 48000000000 dollars in tax revenue. that's if it was used in the u.s. 9000000000 in the u.k. 19000000000 in germany. most surveys this year have shown positive attitudes to working from home. a poll in the us found a hefty 72 percent of so-called knowledge. workers want a combination of remote and office duty or the 12 percent would prefer to work only from the office. jonas, charlie boyle, geo political analyst, ron wrote for us, gave us their views on the idea of a new work from home tax. major cost for people is really nice and i
4:14 am
was getting to work on that nice. try to get some sort of year and a lot of cases that automatically remove the you know, significant costs associated with with get into an office job. i think this needs to be proven 1st. the people who are working from home at the long run will save money. you need a fully equipped, equipped office. you need hardware. you need more space, which you need to rent or to buy. if people stay at home, work from home, the turnover is reduced for many other businesses and this hurts the overall economy. and this is not going to be resolved in the next couple months because the super slow downs over everyone's getting, trying to go back to work. the rest of governments have really increased their debts quite considerably. so if this tax,
4:15 am
if this extra tax for people who can work for from home is supposed to be something like a compensation for these losses and for these deaths, i think it's a totally misconceived strategy. no time to even implement even its leaders political will. and our c.s. order and secure the 1st 3 months of next year. once it actually gets rolled out and we'll have the conversation for free and clear. but what we need is to foster economic growth and activity. and this can never be done through a tax. ok, so my world is in briefly now. stone throwing protesters have been water cannon. in the camp of chile, they took to the streets, demanding the release of people who were arrested at rallies against the president, syria over the shall they have caricature of the prophet mohammed is not relenting in bangladesh. people they're gathered outside the french mysie calling for
4:16 am
a boy cos of all french products. you can see now refugees, the sudanese border. they are fleeing the military conflict in the north of ethiopia, the un says 15000. people can really live in the camp. so they can, they sell fish food in front, so warning jobs will go on the marine, life will be damaged beyond repair. if plans to build a new windfall in britain is allowed to go ahead story on the way. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy. let it be an arms. race is often very dramatic developments. only mostly i'm going to resist . i don't see how that strategy will be successful,
4:17 am
very critical. time to sit down and talk the world is driven by shaped by one person who dares thinks we dare to ask.
4:18 am
welcome back. amid soaring criminality, the us city of minneapolis as approved a cash injection for its police department. the force will get an extra half a $1000000.00 and it will be used to recruit more offices. the funding boost comes despite an earlier pledge by the city council to dismantle an apartment that coming in the wake of the killing of a black man at the hands of local offices. the death of george floyd sparked months of nationwide protests. homicides in minneapolis have doubled since last year. nearly 75 killings were
4:19 am
reported in 2020. number of shootings is reached a decade high, 500 people shot this here. violent crime is also hitting record highs. more than 4600 incidents reported to authorities some 100 officers of left the minneapolis police force since the start of the year, leading to a problem with understaffing. our resources are hemorrhaging. our city is bleeding at this moment. i'm trying to do all i can to stop that bleeding, and i'm sort of being that having the funds to, to launch a citywide joining force me team initiatives. we can try to try to stop the bleeding here in our city. but smith spokesperson for the u.s. national police association says that defunding law enforcement would leave citizens, unprotected crime, started to skyrocket. violent crime is out of control in certain parts of the city of minneapolis. and so this, this notion of defunding,
4:20 am
the police actually hurt not just the police, but it's actually harming the citizens. what we're also seeing is the more resources you take away from police officers, the less community policing there are. and the more police officers get hurt. people are not dying quickly of covert 19 in the city of minneapolis. yes, people are getting sick from cope with 19. most people in the united states recover quickly for i from covert. you don't recover from being murdered in order to keep the citizen safe. they're going to have to learn how to live with police officers. the minneapolis police department is one of the most progressive police departments in the united states. let's turn to the u.k. now, a scientist, all pleading with the government to keep tough rules in place to look down very slow downs are currently in situ, in england,
4:21 am
scotland and northern ireland with england soon to be replaced by this system in early december. and demi has spiraled in the u.k. daily infections, suppressing 27000 people, dunning streets cold, couldn't that it will be able to roll out a u.s. vaccine in december. although the guy's a drug still to get final approval, emerging so warning that there will be logistical bureaucratic challenges. we have to convince people to the chair, maybe about 40 to 50 pushing people at the moment. still have a bit of having this job. it's going to be a big logistical challenges because as we know, it has to be kept at minus 70 degrees and depicts a blooming if all goes as good as it can. and then probably will be glued to start the vaccination program. maybe middle of december. but it is going to be a big challenge. g.p. surgeries themselves with new social distancing guidelines. just don't have the capacity to be bringing thousands of people in, in a safe manner. and that is that the issues that are out finding the right values
4:22 am
and the funding related to that. and finally, we are still being expected to undergo routine walk and a lot of bureaucracy which in it's in primary care. and this just isn't going to be a nickel alongside and you know, in roll out, ram fisherman are opposing plans to build an offshore wind farm in western france, claiming it will endanger a single life and their livelihoods as a micron is long. been pushing for renewable energy projects, so there was good as the story. fishing is a way of life pay off the coast of brittany every morning fishermen head off to sea in the hope of catching their bedroom. but they're now not alone. a renewable energy company is also trying to get it hooks into this area's natural resources. the strong winds in tights here make the coast around the area which is near song creek perfect for an offshore wind farm. 62 turbines are planned with the site
4:23 am
expected to be operational in the next 3 years, but fishermen are determined to sink the project. our leaders have been clear if they don't get answers to their questions, they say cannot be wind farms. that is a certain president. he says, who would rather die standing in this project than let it happen? the fisherman cannot be developed. the wind farm is important. politically, french president not growing, has attempted to patrol himself as being an environmental champion. now he hopes it wind power could generate almost a 5th of front to sell it to city by 2028, partly from offshore turbines. yet one campaign group says the construction of the wind farms is an environmental disaster.
4:24 am
when you install a wind farm in a protected zone, the environmental damage is close, it will destroy the reach, the life and small scale fishing will disappear. the government has tried to offer come to the station, but you can't compensate damage to the sea. there is no compensation for loss of sea life goals. we also have the biggest natural reserve in brittany because we are in a migration corridor for birds. and there is no compensation for the destruction of the wind from project is said to be exacerbating of tensions to just the other side of where it supplants it's the isle of jersey, where fishing is also an important economy. it's no exaggeration to say that jersey fishermen are, i'm not able to access large areas of their own waters because it is simply covered in french, french nets, french gear. he says that's because a french fishermen have been pushed all their own waters because of the wind farm.
4:25 am
those vessels which are now turning up and increasing. if it injures he's waters to an extent that our system and to no longer access huge areas of our own sea of air and waters so that it is causing just on the set of all levels of hardship such as you fisherman. it's got, it's creating conflict between jersey, fishermen and french fishermen. and it's certainly creating unsustainable board, has created unsustainable levels of fishing, if it in the water. that's the company responsible for the construction of the wind farm says it continues to study the impact it has on the environment and for the french government. this project is one key to france and moving toward 3 nubile energy sources. but locals here are determined to do everything they can to scupper, that shell. that didn't ski r.t.,

election night, you may know whether the margin for the winner is so large that it is impossible for the defeated candidate to catch up. so there may still be 10000 votes to count, but the margin is 80000 votes. it doesn't matter if all 10000 votes went for the defeated candidate, they cannot possibly catch up and that's where we are today. joe biden's margin is
4:28 am
so large in all of the states that are being contested, that even though some of the states have not finished county, they still don't know who won. and joe biden won a majority of the electoral college votes. yes, there was will. soup will push sleeves for all sorts of sure. but the true chill touches to the body of flammable was if you are trying to peek at yet, it doesn't capture a message that would have been murdered by you know that when you ask all of those who do use it well, because those stories could be a game we will see a lot of the it was with seemingly more senior. what was new is why it's the most is you get some of what is in your speech, come along and use the united states. this is
