violence against the government of the united states when for president trump by such conduct has demonstrated that he will remain a threat to national security democracy and the constitution if allowed to remain in office. for more details on these latest developments we're joined live now by our new york correspondent caleb mop and caleb thanks for joining us again trump's only got less than 2 weeks left in office right but it seems like the democrats still think that's too much. indeed we have a leaked document that includes a plan to bring articles of impeachment against the president on monday and these articles of impeachment would be fast tracked voted on and the idea would be to remove donald trump from office now if this goes ahead this will be the 2nd time donald trump has been impeached you'll recall that he was impeached over a phone call with the ukrainian president however he was brought on articles and

pete of impeachment the house voted to impeach him but then the senate voted not to remove him from office and you'll recall that entire incident so if this happens it will be the 2nd time that donald trump has been impeached in the us congress now at this point we understand there was a phone call between nancy pelosi and some other leaders of the democratic party and nancy pelosi stated that she wanted donald trump to leave office 'd either by resigning or by being removed by his cabinet under article. amendment 25 of the constitution united states or by being impeached through such proceedings chuck schumer has made similar calls take a listen. what's happened at the u.s. capitol yesterday was an insurrection against the united states in science and by president trump this president's most not told office one day longer i joined a senate democratic leader and calling on the vice president to we move to this president and i immediately invoking the 25th amendment now at

this point republicans are voicing outrage because donald trump is only said to be in office for 12 more days this is only a symbolic gesture at best they argue however we have democrats that are very adamant that it needs to happen we have a situation where republicans are saying this will only intensify the situation in the country now is the time to lower the political temperature they say this will only further divide the country meanwhile as republicans are voicing outrage about an apparent democratic plan to impeach trump we now have reports coming in that people who participated in events on wednesday on capitol hill are now being arrested a 60 year old man from arkansas who was photographed with his feet up on nancy pelosi his desk during the capitol hill storming and in infiltration that took place he's been arrested by the f.b.i. has as has another man who live streamed events inside of capitol hill during the

protests they've been apprehended other people could be facing arrest very shortly so it seems like a crackdown is in the works democrats are moving against donald trump these are dramatic days in the united states these are certainly times that are going to be looked back on by historians these are big moments in american history artie's new york correspondent caleb maupin thank you very much political activist and lawyer christian man sarah fears another impeachment will only add more fuel to the fire. seeking another impeachment is the wrong way to go i think that we cannot forget what each impeachment has generated over the past years of the president say 40 years and now with the recent impeachment based on some absurd and ridiculous error accusing president trump of being some type of russian spy which was a little bit farfetched and ridiculous well i think it would be very wrong for the g.o.p.

to go out and support an impeachment proceeding i would have to say that most of those senators and congressmen got elected because of trump otherwise many people would not have even voted for them or voted them in office just by having a different approach towards the g.o.p. supporters and trump supporters by joe biden and the democrats i think it will help to heal the nation and once that process begins and think it will be an easier task what we have here is each side screaming all kinds of nonsense and generating a deep divide that has become dangerous and wednesday it was just a sign of it and last summer was the beginning of it all living former u.s. presidents have condemned the violence in the capital barack obama has called it a great dishonor and shame while george w. bush labeled it and insurrection worthy of a banana republic where i guess he has been taking a closer look at the remarks. these scenes a usually an act of desperation i reproved heston's and disenchanted moved his

stool in parliament and government pulled pounds willed wide from bolivia to kyrgyzstan what america didn't expect was to find itself on that least this is how elections a disputed in a banana republic not a solid democratic republic but nona republic usually an unstable country with a huge wealth gap and reliant on the export of limited resources so how could this happen to america a nation that exploited regime change and revolution gloomily we salute the courage and strength to believe in people who have protested against a government trying to steal an election the united states supports the courageous decision by juan gado the president of your national assembly to assert that body's constitutional powers declare madeira are your serp are and call for the establishment of

a transitional government with 15 weeks of protesters in hong kong as centrist john a staring message to the rest of the world about the trains of freedom and justice turns out it's not soufan when it happens to you today was a dark day in the history of the united states capitol witness yesterday was not the scent. it was not disorder it was not protest it was chaos and shameful of course made on our democracy it was an embarrassment and dual sides came out of this looking ugly the right to storming america's temple of democracy the left for pretending they're actually against violent protests despite months of riots and violent b.l.m. demonstrations and it's a fiasco the season the sort of thing that's supposed to happen in america this is banana republic that we're watching happen this is what you expect to see in

a banana republic journalists with equally confused a feeling of disbelief seemed to grip them to surreal i feel like i'm talking to a correspondent reporting from the you know bogota c.n.n. quickly became the subject of ridicule online as they haven't been attempts to storm the colombian parliament in decades to into olds who had a stellar movement listing who and why do venezuela's self-proclaimed president among the leaders who condemned what happened in capitol hill who won why do over the past few years has repeatedly attempted the violent seizure of power attacks an army base and even climbed over the parliament fence him self. what happened will stay in america's record for good this isn't something that you can just forget the holds of congress should the fault and the terrible precedent

set professor of latin american studies at the city university of new york daniel shaw believes many in the us establishment view other countries as their colonies. these very. pro-american references to a banana republic harkens back to the charms of colonialism when the us invaded that island which is 14 towns in the beginning of the 20th century you want to project that this is a pristine democracy because how can the justify sanctions we. want in moscow. in holcim in city if they don't have their own house in order for us let's be very clear it would sort them out a democracy for the plutocrats and technocrats and big capital big money then yes the united states is a democracy if we're talking about democracy by and for the people not by and for

the rich the ruling class. in the united states is a discreet insurers a very serious measure of democracy twitter has permanently suspended donald trump's account claiming his posts risked inciting further violence meanwhile another tech giant facebook has extended its suspension of trump's account for at least 2 weeks meaning no more posts from trump until power has been transferred to joe biden here's how the company's boss mark zuckerberg defended the move over the last several years we have allowed president trump teazle platform consistent with our own rules at times removing content who labeling his posts when they violate our policies but the current context is not fundamentally different involving the use of a platform to incite violence insurrection against a democratically elected government and despite the tough line from social media giants some think it's not enough former 1st lady michelle obama is calling on

silicon valley firms to boycott the president for life. knows they've done for the companies to stop enabling the small stores behave and go in further than they have but permanently ben and these men from their platforms and put in place policies to prevent that technology from being used by the nation's leaders to fuel insurrection we discussed the issue with julio rivera editorial director of reactionary times dot com and federica bindy professor of political science at tor university of rome. there is a feline i mean freedom of speech is guaranteed. to violence that is a completely different thing this is why i think facebook did the right choice in silencing president trump this weeks but i don't think it would be possible to stop him from for life facebook changing actually. sure as of october

1st so technically from a legal perspective they do have the right to do and take the actions that they have but what they're doing is that they're going ahead and expressing a message to the american people and to a lot of these other silicon valley giant that it's ok to go ahead and censor a speech that you don't agree with and that is contrary to the spirit of the 1st amendment in america and contrary to the spirit of free speech the program with social media is that they have to comply with the french rules for instance in many european countries hate speech violent speech you know nancy nancy seem bolds those that are dying out from crimes are advertised on its own without if you built you're going if you're taking it there and yeah i think i'll hear i and i you you one of the one who said that there were nazi symbols with time i

didn't the problem is not the election the problem is that trump addressed these people and he did them too much on the capital and this is intimidation the guy lost with peace and conditional there's nothing wrong with marching about what was more on that was not that he's going to write about it and then $206.00 i was not a peaceful protest there was a very violent protest which left 4 people die that i don't recall that preschool process one that you know smashes windows get inside you know what if it's that. and on the human the only shots that were fired. that was the police didn't respond soon enough and strong enough facebook has become way too powerful and listen this whole situation where you have it's not just facebook it's the mainstream media and i'm very afraid because i just got the platform to off with you to. the.

new year's eve they actually took the reactionary times facebook channel away and i'm afraid if you extrapolate that to a larger sense are they going to suddenly start the platforming stations did carry people like rush limbaugh sean hannity all the major conservative talk in america are they going to be silenced suddenly you know all the rules are changing and they're changing in real time you have a democratic party which is shown a lot of tendencies which lean towards fascism now have absolute power they have the house they have the senate and they have the white house where does it and the moment is really tensed and the problem is and they repeat that trend incited to hate and violence he says nothing to do in concert he says nothing only was a big difference between the way the media treated president barack obama the way they treated president trump and i think we're already seeing that slant going back towards a lot of the law breaking let's see what do the rate what that it's that abide look

if you say that president trample was treated differently then then obama you have to give me the facts the numbers i did not ask were 9 lives have a laughing matter earth you don't want to t.v. in the last 4 years how could you say that there were not treated differently even me. in other news emergency services are sending more personnel to the site of an avalanche that has engulfed around 6 buildings in the russian city of norilsk which is located inside the arctic circle the incident happened near a local ski resort larger. operation is already underway although it is being complicated by poor weather so far emergency teams have recovered a teenage boy who was said to be badly injured others are reportedly still trapped under the snow when the authorities have warned of the risk of more avalanches in the area with local roads closed as a precaution a major incident has been declared in london for the 1st time in 4 years we look at

what's behind the statement by the british capital's mayor after this short break. on serious order because accomplishes this and do you understand it brings spontaneous order because it's the hardest money ever in the history of humans gold did a fairly decent job for many years thousands of years but it got entirely financial as 2008 and it's been a relegated to the status. symbol seems wrong when the old rules just don't hold. anything you get to shape out these things become educated and in gains from it equals betrayal.

when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. welcome back to the program spittles in the british capital are reportedly being swamped by an intake of covert patients prompting the city mayor to declare a major incident shaadi edwards dosti has the story. well we've covered 19 things can change very quickly and very dramatically and now the london master deckard has just declared a major incident in london and that follows extreme pressure on the n.h.s. particularly within the hospitals it comes as we've seen deaths absolutely so

always see the highest number on record since the pandemic plus more than a 1000000 people are now suffering with covert 19 up and down the country that's one in 50 across the united kingdom but in the capital alone it's one in 30 all of this that is placing a huge amount of pressure on to the n.h.s. and some even saying including the mayor of london himself that it's pushing the n.h.s. to breaking point. out of control the risk of being overwhelmed what i mean by the. risk of the. hospitals are going out of the course of this week just to give you an idea then of what a major incident entails previously we've seen absolutely extreme circumstances for instance a grandfather tower fire truck to do was declared as a major incident so too was the westminster and london bridge terror attack as well so this really shouldn't be taken lightly plus in the past week we have seen sorry and the sussex areas declared major incidents as well what

a major incident really means then is that various emergency services can now club together to help alleviate the pressures that are going on in the capital so now we're seeing around 100 firefighters jumping in to help the emergency services and driving ambulances throughout the capital plus we're seeing even the metropolitan police offering their support as well so that it can then is calling on the prime minister to introduce even further measures but what more does card really want considering the fact that the united kingdom is in a full scale national lockdown while london message to car and wants to see even places of worship closed as well but this major incident may come as a surprise to some but not all especially not. those on the front line here he says are tired exhausted and even traumatized with this latest 2nd wave of the pandemic plus the n.h.s. chief says simon steven says hospital admissions are at a rate never seen before we are seeing. over 800 patients

a day with richard to london hospitals with coronavirus i mean that is the equivalent or very new synthesis hospital full of covert patients fully staffed every day or new university college hospital full of coronavirus patients every day so it is absolutely vital that the measures that are now in force do begin to have an impact on slowing the and cutting the infections across london and the rest of the country the key messages from the united kingdom today is that the n.h.s. are on the brink they do need help they have very little else to give and essentially we are back at me i have the storm microbiologist simon clark believes the new fast spreading variant of covert has created a major challenge for the u.k. . the. new strain which is moving. most if not all of us expected certainly to offer than i expected the numbers of new infections are going up very quickly indeed as the number of hospitalizations so it is critical and i'd

expect that if they all spittles to run out to capacity and it looks like to insure the older they're going to do that there will be nasty to treat have felt attacks strokes and perhaps involved in a road traffic accident who would come to some misfortune some other way never mind the. replacement the replacement caps the treatments that you would normally expect so that's the real danger. another news brazil's cova death toll has hit 200000 that's making it the 2nd worst affected nation after the united states and there's been a sharp jump in new cases over the christmas holidays it's currently summer in brazil and large crowds enjoyed beach parties in rio de janeiro over the festive season bars and restaurants have been packed with social distancing a rarity throughout the pandemic president yarb also naro has resisted any tough restrictions on a federal level saying any curbs have to be enforced locally and he stuck to that

view after the latest surge in cases saying life has to go on. the move. we have to face it we can't just continue with that old story of stay at home and deal with the economy later which is what some people want it's not going to work it can lead to even most severe consequences than the virus itself brazil has yet to approve any covert vaccine in contrast to argentina chile and mexico where inoculation campaigns are already in full swing the brazilian government has promised to catch up saying the 1st shots will be administered by mid february but the delays are causing frustration. i still wasn't going to have a federal government that doesn't seem to boil there are about vaccines we subpoenaed bill being vaccinated in europe and in south american contras includes in argentina chile and part of why but brazil is like in far behind we don't

have the equipment all the drugs there is a lot of planning. because the somebody the police the solution is within reach with the back since but because of political bickering and delays some worry that will see an even shop increase and deaths. this is what happens in 2021 it will depend on the vaccines it's what everyone was so we can get back to living our lives as before. the editor in chief of brazil's opera monday news agency believes the government to squarely to blame for the health crisis 1st of all that is against vaccination in the 1st moments he once again that the nation and now he is in fight against some governors about seeing a doctor here in brazil if the chinese vic keen about seeing if the vaccine if the russian vaccine because we have some women. we've. faced in brazil walked both so mad does it just he talks about economy when we presume

very in the real show. we've many jobless be po this situation is the math there is this conflict. so it had to be forced to fabricate a national vaccination plan. that's the reason the main reason we delay in comparison with. counties reason. washington has scrapped plans to slap new tariffs on luxury goods from france they were proposed last year in retaliation for paris taxing large tech firms charlotta pinsky reports. well this is a huge step down from washington that was due to impose these additional taxes over the last few days on french luxury goods such as handbags but also on things such

as cosmetics that were exported to the u.s. this would have added some 25 percent to those products in terms of cost and would have brought in around $1300000000.00 in terms of additional taxes now this was all in a dispute over the so-called gaffa taxes is a tax france has been talking about imposing on digital giants here in france on the revenues and the profits that they create here in france this is tech companies such as amazon such as google facebook and the u.s. has long said that taxing these companies for their profits in france in france would have been unfair this is what the u.s. trade representative is now saying the u.s. trade representative has decided to suspend the tariffs in light of the ongoing investigation of similar digital service taxes adopted all under consideration in 10 other jurisdictions those investigations have significantly progressed but have

not yet reached a determination or possible trade actions well of course these taxes would have hit the exporters but the reality is they would have also hit consumers like you annoy you so if you're somebody who lives in the u.s. and you like a particular french brand of makeup such as lipstick you'd been paying 25 percent more for it tangy been buying it if these taxes had been put on the here in france we know that the digital giants it said that they would be looking at passing on those costs to consumers here so it could have meant that french consumers would have had to pay more say for their cloud services but of course this is now not going to happen at least for the moment but france isn't the only country in the e.u. that has been discussing how it taxes these digital giants for the profits made in european countries. we take note of the u.s. decision to postpone his unilateral trade measures against france relating to his

digital service tax we stand ready to engage with the u.s. to find a solution however all such issues should be resolved at the world trade organization but let's be clear these taxes have been suspended they have been taken off the table completely and they could come to bite in the future and this is not the only tax to speak this going on at the moment between the e.u. and the us there's also this a long running dispute over subsidies given to the aircraft makers boeing that has seen the u.s. look fresh taxes in the next few days on certain french products such as french wine and spirits say that is causing huge concern in the industry an industry itself pushing much decimated like many others during the 1900 pandemic and the e.u. has also issued retaliatory taxes for that too on some u.s. goods that come here to europe so it seems that trump may be about to leave office

in the next few days but he didn't might be coming into a fresh new white house administration but the tensions do remain high on taxes and trade between the u.s. and the e.u. . more details on the turmoil that took place in washington d.c. make sure to check out our website our q dot com and follow us on twitter i'll be back with more news in just about 30 minutes. the world is driven by dream shaped by one person with. no dares thinks. we dare to ask.
