it's resonance one group in particular russian wives of syrian man be a fossil. record they were pleased to look up to it's in his leisure just like it's . come together impeach the president not just about impeachment anymore it's about canceling it he is a clear and present danger to the u.s. house of representatives voted to impeach president trump after angry debate and well money on the floor can't wait to see the back of him others aboard it is dangerous to try and simply quote cancel these views that's coming up. because the latest apparently by president trumps account meantime his fellow online messaging giant twitter slams the african state of uganda for blocking the social media look at claims of free speech. by big.

push back against a top british screenwriters called a no longer cast a heterosexual actors to play gay characters to put that whole thing up for debate . it's necessary not really a tax. break to. begin a life so we teach transgender mice now. and leaders. all. here in moscow thursday 14th of january good morning from me kevin owen in the rest the team you're about international hope you can stick around as a take through our headlines this morning for the next 30 minutes and 1st of course the big news that came in overnight the u.s. house of representatives voting then to impeach donald trump for a massively divisive debate while most condemn the president though nonetheless

almost 200 congressmen and women came out against the vote in the movies no longer the justice more about revenge. donald trump is the most dangerous man to ever occupy the oval office there is so dangerous what you're doing that tyrant president they want to cancel the president he is a clear and present danger to the nation that we all love the houses action today will only extend the division longer than necessary let's come together impeach the president for this high crime against the republic you don't merely seek victory but you seek obliteration of your nemesis had the vote hundreds of exhausted national guard troops have been pictured sleeping in the capitol building as they try to protect it round the clock following last week's riots the soldiers were deployed to democrats branded the riots an act of domestic terrorism. now after the house impeachment vote the senate's now than set to decide whether or not to indict

trump on charges of inciting incinerate action but despite the democratic party cold storage and see it seems the vote will not take place before trump leaves office now on gender the 20th not long to go colas if he is indicted he'll never again be eligible for public office we spoke to law expert charles rhodes about it . since he will have already concluded his term what conviction in the senate would do is open the door to an additional vote on a majority basis only determine whether or not he would be banned from. future public office and i think the odds are very high that that goal would be successful if the larger hurdle is 1st accomplished of an actual conviction in the son in the state prosecutions if they make it to trial there's absolutely no bar he can't be pardoned for it at the federal level and if the state of new york for instance

were to decide that they were going to proceed forward with indictment in trial he would get his day in court just like any of the defendant on the federal potential federal charges is going to come down to whether or not president truck chooses to do something that no president has ever done attempt to solve. which he's actually been advised not to do by every legal adviser that he's raised the issue with or he doesn't attempt so or if he does not self pardon i think the odds are actually lower that he will be prosecuted federally if you still forward and actually challenging the validity of a self-starter by the president in my assessment is that the united states is not going to be interested in allowing someone to commit crimes and then pardon themselves or blow up the door if he so pardons he almost guarantees a federal prosecution to result there. have been

a backlash against the president not only being political troubles businesses have also taken a big hit with many of his supporters raising concerns about the validity of the measure is covering that more guys to have taken a closer look. undermining an elected president you don't like is called politics just how things up censoring him and denying the president a voice that's just plain pity that it's what it's called and then to go after his business interests just out of spite that's out and out council culture the politically correct acceptable face of hatred here to announce that the city of new york is severing hall contracts with the trump organization if a company in the leadership of that company is engaged in criminal activity we have the right to sever the contract it's happening on every level local governments like new york which now has

a problem with trump running the local caris sells and ice rings business is also appointing him towards the door shutting down his online stores for example even the banks of bailing out ruling out future ties on trump accounts worth millions we witnessed the president of the united states encouraging the rights is a new freedom from call in the national guards to protect the seen these before. violence has no place in our society and the scenes that we witnessed are a shame on the whole nation. the sports world is no exception to add insult to injury they're good enough to trump's passion is golf and part of the professional golf of the subsea asian is stripping the president's cherished bedminster golf course of who stayed in the 2022 p.g.a. championship which trump has apparently spent millions preparing for but that's the

price of going against the flow nowadays if you don't say what people like to hear you're going to have a bad heart. it won't just be you your nearest and dearest get sucked in to and pretty much everyone who depends on you will live in the age of cancel culture but this isn't something the start of this week it is something that they have been doing to us and others for years if you disagree with them if they don't like you they try and cancel you. trump's presidency was undoubtedly divisive this is a person you either hate or you love you may feel that he deserves all of this you may feel it's are justified but you can't deny that he's left a mark that he was the president or well turns out you can't i'm working on a bill that would mean that nothing not even a band no airport no hiring no school nothing ever bad the name of this traitor.

we're going to terms already seen practically all these social media accounts suspended or banned messaging. knows made trump's band permanent it comes as twitter no other side to this but worth contrasting comparing accuses it uganda's president of violating human rights after he banned the social media giants in the country amid an ongoing election process critics crying hypocrisy there than you taylor reports in a rough start to 2021 it looks like twitter is losing finance as quickly as it stock is tumbling down which it's birds and avoid you know you can come and play around with 0. 0. goodness. the ugandan president has blocked access to all social media platforms in

the run up to the general election why while you're wary mr vini claims the overreaching nods in silicon valley when meddling and taking sides by banning the accounts of government officials linked to his campaign which for someone hoping to extend his 34 year rule by a few more years was never going to be a winning policy used to being on the other side of a twit so was not impressed. as to information and freedom of expression including the public conversation on twitter is never more important than during democratic processes particularly elections a noble sentiment that must have slipped twitter's mind when it banned the president of the united states his lawyers former advisers former white house trucks just needing conservative personalities and over 70000 of the recounts apparently because they were all the embellished their understanding of the 1st amendment by firing up maggots supporters and inciting

a riot at the capitol so according to twits the number one jack dorsey on friday in america censorship is a national interest but on tuesday in uganda it's a human rights violation begging the question all that any mirrors at twitter h.q. they're right about the principles of be expressed in that tweet the irony though the really sick dark and dangerous irony is that they themselves are leading the way in doing exactly that which they're lecturing other countries that they can't do it but locking self-awareness has been a long time passion of the social media platform one it's pushing for public conversations around election time in a far away country rewind a few months to when it froze out the new york post over a story about the. intellects son's laptop the one that apparently exposed hunter biden's dodgy dealings in ukraine while his father joe then v.p. was point man for the country is it any wonder the newspaper's editor still bears

a crowd the goal my lords pre-election freedom of information for ugandans but not for readers of america's oldest daily newspaper the new york post for which twitter said sorry we made a quick interpretation using no other evidence that the materials in the article were changed. and according to. them from being spread on further consideration we needed distraction was wrong and critical within 24 hours calling out others shutting down haters and giving yourself a full time free pass so much easier than practicing what you preach. all right more of the trump saga later next though this a leading british screenwriter and producer behind some of the u.k.'s most acclaimed dramas says that heterosexual actors should not be cast in gay roles would you think about that well even some actors best known for playing ground breaking gay characters have hit back no russell t.

davies for overreaching with ink on a quality maybe i feel strongly that if i can ask someone in a story i'm counseling them to act as a lover or an enemy or someone on drugs or a criminal or a saint they're not there to act gay because acting gay is a bunch of codes for a performance it's about authenticity the taste of 2020 i'm not completely convinced he understands what acting actually involves in head was in a totally different character back in the late eighty's and early ninety's during the aids crisis the homophobia the secrecy the quality shows etc i was always dreaming of the day when being gay was no longer an issue when we were no longer defined as gay activists are gay people just people. so they go to church put the issue of whether heterosexual like to should be allowed to play gay characters of the debate here we go. i don't think as an actor that it matters what the sexuality you look at. when i was on

a school in london with the whole you know we playing at any one we saw the sack carbon shakes and reeks. i've played a lot of characters outside of mind and spirit and it's time to move on. you to ridicule the the gay life has already transgender my guests now i would suggest that it's necessary to not leave the decks variants so you can probably raina i do believe it's possible to replicate. the hacky sack sure i think at the end of the day the best actor should be cast in a role i think it's important to have as ability it's important to have it if it's for when it come to you alan i think yes invites and day out of the room. with out of the room clean you know letters how about

unity just like any other actor but i think best. to play that role it's not excuse excuse of a team in my opinion let's take for example one example consigned to the scarlet johansson she was asked to play a transgendered man actually argues what what changes are you not she should have the right play any role in an ideal world maybe i would say how on earth can start your answer over friends who creek convey the experiences and life of a transgender man when i would suggest she hasn't got the 1st clue about who has also been argued that illegal drug addict play a drug addict or only a royal can pay a royal curse and. that's a very specific period and we were having this argument 20. it went to the 1st place i believe now. is ruins not times an experience

tremendous. i would suggest the best way is it's very specific gross like the gay scene where you just turn to bt. then any job interview where. what is your sexuality is not. just exist in. the conversation went on it's quite a post most good time good morning hope a day is going good so far review around the world this is ahead not good sings here hundreds of rioters setting fire to a brussels police station over the death of an immigrant in custody we'll tell you more about that and more the news here on today after the break. nuclear become a battleground in the u.s.

in vermont people are demanding the shut down of a local plant for my yankee is right now my focus because it's a very dangerous. power plant the owner is attempting to run the reactor beyond its operational limit this case just sort of puts a magnifying glass on where's the power in this country where's it going is it moving more towards corporate interests or is it more in the idea of a traditional participatory democracy is or power lie with the people this case demonstrates that struggle in a very real way. a struggle on r.t. . i can't show you my face but i'm going to tee you must store in 9093 this man was sentenced to death. they get charged with capital murder. even though he didn't have the gun didn't pull the trigger didn't intend to kill anybody imagine living in your bathroom for that week with his son of

a 23. i doubt that had to be. confined within 4 gray walls he fights using. to help him to leave death row. the world is driven by a dream shaped by one person. dares thinks. we dare to ask.

this is our to internationalise kevin though in here this morning i hundreds of riots has smashed the windows and then sets a brussels police station on fire then over the death in police custody of a young immigrant. was protest as a taken to the streets to manu further investigation of the death of an african my good at the police department officers used force to disperse the crowds at points the victims' families lawyer say that thirty's have got big questions to answer. it brit hume of films the actions of the police on camera he used his civil rights to film the police human rights organizations have long insisted that there is such a right to film the police on camera the police got annoyed in the end they decided to imprison him during the search he lost consciousness and nothing happened he was

left for dead this prompted the crown attorney to open an investigation into the manslaughter charge when people ask me alexey do you think it happened because he is black and foreign i don't know what i should answer because i know one thing probably with my son he is blind and the same age this would not have happened and this is unacceptable i have no words no respect no dignity and no humanity 23 year old abraham who was detained on saturday evening reportedly while filming police officers on his smartphone seems he lost consciousness police department then the man was rushed to hospital but doctors couldn't save his life the cause of death is not yet known police said the man was detained for violating pandemic lockdown curfews but an autopsy found that he'd died before the curfew protesters are now demanding justice. you bremer was like

a brother to it's almost like we were a family so i have the right to be outraged because we're talking about the death of a human being here and we think it is totally normal for people to be outraged and we're grieving that is the main reason why we're here and the 2nd reason is that we demand justice justice must be done one of the aspects still regarding the circumstances of him is that. the news this morning u.s. president elect joe biden has chosen who he wants to run the federal international aid agency usaid and it's another era named samantha power and for the past previously served on the national security council it was barack obama's you're an envoy you may recall revealing his choice by explained why he wants power on his team. as one of our country's most respected voices on humanitarian issues and i have seen both her passion and her principles firsthand there could be no one no one more qualified. man during

a previous high profile government jobs power has faced a raft of ethical questions from critics he pushed for military intervention for instance in libya on humanitarian grounds during the civil war the nearly a decade ago she was also a strong supporter of u.s. involvement in syria and yemen both of which have succumbed to a devastating humanitarian plight since she's no sure though that she's the one to lead washington's mission to heal the world. the united states has a chance to partner with and support people who are on the frontlines in battling coven who are trying to build climate resilience who are standing up for the rule of law. standing up against inequality and trying to create more just society humanitarian support democracy assistance economic development those are not nice to have in our foreign policy tool box they are critical. for my appendix.

predict the aid agencies in line for a major upgrade as a foreign policy tool for. position is actually accorded to biden is going to be elevated to the national security council level so that adds gives an added importance as to how $4.00 and $8.00 will be used and humanitarian assistance will be used as a guiding light or upcoming foreign policy under biden it also shows that we might even go ahead and so far and weaponize that given. samantha powers previous experience and recommendations to then vice president biden and to obama the president libya was it was one of those outcomes yemen was another so if we if we need humanitarian assistance or. and couple with that would be human rights advocacy and an insistence upon that in in any assistance that we give. does that

mean that we're going to go ahead and shoot it into people's heads again so this is a her elevation like this raises some important questions as to just to what extent foreign policy or foreign assistance will be used as a foreign policy weapon as opposed to give an absolute assistance in the future. so female it's international world to send to this moscow it came across everything else we're talking about today across all various social major nati dot com for now though kevin 0 in the sun and all for me in the team one of you to the great and.

one of the make no certainly no blood is just thought to tell a tease. we don't look like. the. commentary says. we can do better we should know. everyone is contributing. but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever the challenge is grateful to respond. so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we are in it together. talk about a word that means different things to different people depending on where you live

what area you live what school you went to that war is inflation. i can't show you my face but i'm going to teach you must store in 9093 this man was sentenced to do they could charged with capital murder even though he didn't have the gun didn't pull the trigger didn't intend to kill anybody imagine living in your bathroom for the weekend with his son of a 23. i felt that i had to. get out be. confined within 4 grey walls the phone it's using. trying to help him to leave this room. the war in syria has lasted longer than world war 2. who

moving more towards corporate interests or is it more in the idea of a traditional participatory democracy as are powerline with the people this case demonstrates that struggle in very real ways a struggle on r.t. . is your media a reflection of reality. in a world transformed. what will make you feel safe from. the isolation pool community. are you going the right way or are you being led so. direct. what is true what is faith. in the world corrupted you need to descend. to join us

in the depths. or a maybe in the shallows. i got this 8 millimeter film purely by accident. time period 963 to 65 place damascus. i don't don't know why young. i've watched it many times a man posing the monuments and all poster of the hollywood premiere of town without pity and a fight in a minute so with outbursts. i had my doubts if i should waste my time on this but i came back to that film over and over again tracing a sequence of events happening in syria at that time and those who worked there the

moment of review. which will see neal curiosity is like a petrol motion machine it lives on without a lunch break and then suddenly i saw him stop let's take another look now at low speed this is key like owing a super spy to some consider a national hero and others and evil villain an israeli double o. 7. i need because it's bad some. good at the one. still. if but. if no one would ever see this footage if it wasn't for an old acquaintance of mine but collected from st petersburg alexei monaco. he has an incredible eye for n.t. . he once invited me to his antique shop to show some of the boxes he caught from

an apartment on science. it's simple the owners were getting rid of things they didn't need. so political will you know. yes there was only one word syria they gave the boxes to us they say along with the own video camera they said take it we don't need to get up alone to properly. i don't dump. why young. and then. you know which you are author of rayman you partial or you see order which you moved in you come as you need a clear for a bar out on the move there you know. who you are when you know. the post you know as i walked over to the show but on closer allies. it's clear with the do it. the norm.
