well you want that word inflation. let's come together impeach the president not just about impeachment anymore it's about canceling it he is a clear and present danger so the u.s. house of representatives votes than to impeach a president some for a 2nd time after angry debate and while many on the floor can't wait to see the back of the others wall it's dangerous to try and simply quote cancel his views. vandalized then torched hundreds of riots a set of brussels police station a light after the african refugee dies in custody. and twitter

lashes out for being banned in uganda amid an ongoing election while itself of course recently banning donald trump sparking claims of the christie. thursday the 14th of january live from russia are you watching r t international with me kevin owen here this hour welcome i've got 30 minutes of our latest for you hope you can stay with me as a go through it the 1st this after heated debate the u.s. house of representatives eventually voted to impeach donald trump for a 2nd time just a week before he set to leave office now it's up to the senate to decide whether or not trump will be able to hold public office ever again the decision to impeach him as most lawmakers condemned the president but that said almost $200.00 congressmen and women did come out against the vote to arguing it's no longer about justice they said but 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 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 you seek obliteration of your nemesis ahead of the vote these pictures went viral hundreds of national guard troops pictured sleeping on the floor of the capitol building for a while with many noting on line the seat of government looks more like a military base for a time that was stationed there around the clock following last week's riots at the premises of course the riots of the split the country with democrats branding the storming of capitol hill an act of domestic terrorism now after the house

impeachment vote then the senate's going to decide whether or not to indict on charges of inciting insurrection but despite democratic party calls for urgency about it it seems the vote will not take place before trump leaves office anyway on january the 20th but if he is indicted he'll never be able to be eligible for public office again law expert charles rose has got more on that side of 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 part of 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 the self pardons actually challenging the validity of a self pardon by the president and 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 that costs. and the backlash is just political tech

giants of continuing to purge him from their platforms with snap chat now the latest to permanently banned the president's account comes businesses are also being targeted despite his supporters questioning the validity of the measures he's a senior correspondent word goes day of next. 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 petty that'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 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 ation 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 in 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 who you love you may feel that he deserves all of this you may feel it's odd justified but you can't deny that he's left to mock that he was the president oh well turns out you cat i'm working on a bill that would mean that nothing not even a bench no apple no highway no school nothing ever bad the name of this traitor

it's about pure hate the social media driven revenge and this is the lowest level of any kind of political discourse that i have ever see it's not in any way surprising that these groups because they don't have a real arguments are going to try to sort of go around the thing it's kind of like if you're in a debate with a person where you have no chance of winning a debate you just turn off the electricity so that nobody has a microphone that's what we're seeing over here when you treat the other side as if they're not just people that you disagree with but people who you view as your enemy you will make them your enemy and right now the democrats have made themselves 74000000 enemies maybe even more than that i don't know and when you do that you create divides in the country you create hostility you create violence and we have not seen the end of this this is not something being created by trump's the bass to us this is somebody else something being created by the fact that so many

people feel silenced and deep platforms by left wing media both social and traditional. some nasty so you say the reports here hundreds of rioters smashing the windows and then setting a brussels police station on fire over the deaths in police custody of a young immigrant. i was to a protest has taken to the streets demanding further investigation of the death of an african migrant the police department officers used force to disperse the crowds at times there was a bad the victim's family lawyer says authorities have got big questions to answer over it. ibrahim of films the actions of the police on camera he used his civil right 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 no humanity well you heard a bit of the back story of what's been reported the 23 year old ibrahim it was detained on saturday evening reportedly well filming police officers on his smartphone seems he lost consciousness at the police department is the report the man was rushed to hospital but then doctors couldn't save his life the actual cause of his death is still not known officially police said the man was detained for violating pandemic locked and curfews but then an autopsy is reported that he died

before the curfew protesters are now demanding justice. bremer was like a brother to me 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 we are grieving that is the main reason why we're here and the 2nd reason is that we demand justice justice must be done that one of the aspects of still regarding the circumstances of him is there. was a saying earlier on the online giant seem happy to ban users the don't like but maybe less came to them it's our next story case in point the african state of uganda twitters hit out social media banned by the country's president on them amid an ongoing election process suskind taylor reports on growing cries the big tex big maybe a little hypocritical in

a rough start to 2021 it looks like twitter is losing fans as quickly as it stock is tumbling which it. can come and play around with oh oh. oh. goodness. the ugandan president has blocked access to all social media platforms in the run up to the general election why it 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 purge though twitter was not impressed access 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 noise former advisors former white house trying to 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 magnus supporters on inciting a riot at the capitol so according to twits the number one jack dorsey on friday in america censorship is the national interest but on tuesday in uganda it's a human rights violation begging the question all that any merit is 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. first story about the president elect's son's laptop the one that apparently exposed tom to biden's dodgy dealings in ukraine while his father joe then v.p. was point man for the country is it any wonder the newspapers that it's a still. the goal mylars pre-election freedom of information for ugandans but not for readers of america's oldest daily newspaper the new york post for which twista said sorry we made a quick interpretation using no other evidence that the materials in the article were changed. and according to our we block them from being spread on further consideration we've needed this action was wrong and corrected it 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 coming up to be or not to be that's the question push work against a top british screenwriters call to no longer cast petra sexual act is to play gay characters what you think about that panel had some thoughts on that. one else seemed wrong. why don't we just don't call. me. yet to shape out this day come after. and it gets written it was betrayed. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground.

the world is driven by drama shaped by our own personal. dares thinks. we dare to ask. so a leading british screenwriter and producer behind some of the u.k.'s most acclaimed l g b t dramas says heterosexual actors should not be cast in gay roles but even some

actors best known for playing groundbreaking gay characters of it back at that thought russell t. davis for maybe overreaching on equality i feel strongly that if i can't 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 are 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 i.e. inhabiting a totally different character back in the late eighty's and early ninety's during the aids crisis the homophobia the secrecy of 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 or gay people just people so we put the issue of whether heterosexual actors should be allowed to play gay characters or not for debate. i

don't think as an actor that it matters what the sexuality book. when i was out on a school in london with the whole you know we playing at any one we serve the backyard and sakes 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 variance so you. may not i do believe it's possible to replicate than. actual sexual harasser i think at the end of the day the best actor should be cast in a role i think it's important to have those ability it's important to have it. for when it comes to you alan i think yes invites and day out of the room.

runs out of the room clean you know met others how about the community just like any other actor but i think best. to play that role does not excuse excuse of a team in my opinion let's take for example an example consigned to the scarlet johansson she was asked to play a transgendered man actually argued what what changes are you not sure how the right play any role in an ideal world maybe what i would say how on earth can start your hands 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 who play a drug addict or only a royal can pay a royal person. that's a very specific period and we want to have in this argument 20. it would mean. i

mean now. is truth now or stands in experience. would suggest the best way is this very specific. casey. you have to be. as we are trained to be there in any job interview where. what is your sexuality is not. to exist you want. next names from the past u.s. president elect joe biden has chosen who he wants to run the federal international aid agency usaid and it's another obama era name samantha power member that previously serving on the national security council and also barack obama's u.n. envoy for a while while revealing his choice by the explain why he wants power on his team

now. 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 more qualifying those efforts that samantha. or during a high profile government jobs previously powers face a raft raft of ethical questions along the way from critics she pushed for military intervention in libya on humanitarian grounds during the civil war there nearly a decade ago she was also a strong supporter of u.s. involvement in syria and yemen both of which have come to a devastating humanitarian plight well now she sure she is the person 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 cova 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 of the bigger picture a former pentagon analyst michael maloof predicts the aid agencies in line for a major upgrade as a foreign policy tool. well her 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 foreign aid will be used and humanitarian assistance will be used as a guiding light or a common foreign policy under biden and also shows that we might even go ahead so far and weaponize that given. samantha powers previous experience and read and recommendations to then vice president biden and to obama the president libya was

it was one of those outcomes yemen was a letter so if we if we need humanitarian assistance or. and coupled with that with the human rights advocacy and insists 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. some great russian take your juicer tell you about clever if it works russia's biggest bank has developed an app to determine whether a person has got covert or not from the way they cough sperm bank is set to use a special algorithm to tell within a minute whether a person is infected or not the app 1st request uses to fill out

a questionnaire about their symptoms then it records and analyzes data from their voice their breathing and their cough develop presences to cause people should then consult a doctor or not treat the app as a final analysis. but 1st of all of the. fonts all possible data states. from examples of copy of pointy from covert negative people and it means that neural network understand i cure rates and can't understand the spatial signal special part of this spectrograph what's exactly calculated to call it in cuffs related to for example some other virus of an a there are some has a has a called this is an app and that's how think to understand that you have to go to a doctor the probability of duerson to be accorded positive. by chi chi and it's

comparable with. p.c.r. test for example p.c.r. test has some succeeded to 70 percent and 95 percent of the imo who what where that in about allows us to it's just an. 85 percent and specifically 45 percent so this is actual intelligence that helps. to understand it's on north korea it's in the air and 60 seconds. anything that helps is good news these days isn't it is 25 minutes past the follower so on twitter check it out either which way you keep in contact with us will bring you all the latest news of the day for now the reporting from moscow kevin owen of the team signing off for enjoy our next programs.

so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race is on spearing dramatic development only mostly i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. i can show you my face but i'm going to teach you must story in 9093 was sentenced to death. 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 that week with his son of a $23.00. confined

within 4 gray walls he fights using. them to leave death room. 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 mock so without bruises. 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 most of those who worked there alone would reveal. any you know what you didn't know neal curiosity is like a petrol motion machine did 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 0 on a super spy who some consider a national hero and others and evil villain an israeli double o. 7. i need because it's but it's them and they at the. at the one. still. 50. and no one would ever see this footage if it wasn't for an old acquaintance of mine but collected from st petersburg alexei marco. 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 and as we're getting rid of things they didn't need. so the political will your money and there was only one word syria they gave the box as to what they say along with the own video camera they said take it we don't need to get up long to properly go here but one thing it. i don't dump there why young boy and then. thought you know which you are off the way many partial or you feel were with your movie and you come with your video player for a bar out complaints quantum of very lucky people you. are when you know them all could you fall by live the post you know as i walked over to the show and put on clothes on the last wish list on the clear with the
