supporters must be deprogrammed how does that help with the calm and what can a now president biden about president biden do to to assure people that hey we're not all in a maze here and we don't have to be in a mes we don't have to continue to have this growing animosity between us as camps we can just come together its merits. that is an excellent question so i think in order to bring calm we have to honestly address what was the cause of so many trump supporters who may not have really been stopped republicans but they were stopped republican support what brought them out of the vote what made them so excited that they would follow everything that trump said and there's a part of america that feels left behind for whatever reason they feel forgotten and they feel that neither the political parties back them and tap into that base in a considerable way so i think to bring unity we need someone to talk to that base i wrote an article that was covered by n.p.r. some time ago that call for the democratic party to start

a white man's copy of people don't like to hear that because they said well you know there's some privilege in america why would you need a white man's caucus the reason is we need to be able to address whatever the underlying thing has made them go so far to follow president trump and breaking into our own capital now there are some things we cannot fix and we need to be honest about some of this is rooted in white supremacy and we're just going to have to accept the fact that there were people out there who could easily believe that this election was stolen because they said there's no way that african-americans came out for the senate vote in georgia there's no way that this number of people to support a b.p. that is african-american would have come out there's no way that could have happened and that's really in my supremacy so we need to address that head on we need soup talk to these people who may have originally supported tromp and understand what their premises now there's a group we will never be able to convince you know there are some republicans who
1:32 pm
told me that oh you can't control who follows you we can't control it they're white supremacists who went to the capitol but those people said themselves while breaking into the capitol we're here because our president invited us so it's time for us to be honest about though we need to separate ourselves from those groups for far too long republicans and 7 are used to separate themselves from the confederates and those who carry the confederate flag and this is where we are now where the confederate flag for the 1st time within our capital we need to be honest and that's how we bring our unity this is our team to nashville there has been a deadly explosion in the spine the we will bring you those developments right after the break. social media platforms today function as the public square the room key to almost

a race against time to get its population vaccinated against covert 19 here in moscow the authorities are getting creative with new hubs being sent up in some surprising locations artie's constantine rushkoff reports. russia's mass vaccination effort is picking up steam here in moscow vaccination points are being set up across the city in addition to regular hospitals and this one for example is inside an actual opera house in this particular case this is quite symbolic because this building has a special connection with the russian health care community it used to be a hospital for wounded soldiers during the 2nd world war and now again it helps to tackle yet another global threat getting vaccinated at an opera house comes with benefits and it feels like real occasions just look at this even the guard wearing bow ties and when you waiting in line to get inoculated

you get to listen to classical music among those who have taken a jab here and tonight are the employees of moscow theaters actors and singers and they have a lot to say about the on go and pandemic and its consequences to the entertainment industry which at the. first of all is dangerous for me as a vocalist because the disease would severely affects my singing voice because it has an impact on the loans and the vocal operates itself but with it in august i was very sick so i decided that it's important to overcome it somehow because my contracts abroad are falling through here and the theater you have to constantly be on for 2 weeks after leaving the hospital i signed the bad operetta but it was very difficult for me. the pandemic was difficult it is not yet clear how difficult because we do not know all the consequences we believe in a bright future but it does not get clear thank god we work in russia because everything is much more complicated abroad we also run into
1:41 pm
a canadian national hero who got stuck in moscow body he decided to take advantage of the situation and he came out here tonight to get a jab but i have confidence in the russian medical care and russian medical research russia is one of the top. 'd medical. industries in the world they have good institutes from soviet times to now this virus corona virus has existed since the 1st sars epidemic in 2004 so they've had a lot of time to look at this virus so i'm sure that this respect seeing that exists is not just one year in research it's been a lot of years in research but it's complete confidence there are people who are afraid to go to hospital for the vaccination because they might be afraid or wary of getting infections there and those fears might be unfounded bought these mobile inoculation points like this one here give them psychological comfort and it's also
1:42 pm

1:43 pm
of today almost 6500000 doses of the 2 components of sputnik v. have been produced we were expected to produce not less than 7000000 doses in january and 11 1000000 in february and 15 1000000 doses a plan for monch. and of course additional vaccination points like this one are going to play a role in theatres and cinemas themselves want the population to get vaccinated to get successfully vaccinated as much as anyone else because they are having a hard time during the pandemic they're losing money by the day due to restrict the seeding the more jobs are administered the sooner life can get back to normal. let's bring you to germany which is extending toughening its covert locked due to soaring infection rates chancellor merkel's announcement comes amid rising public towards they restructure and all of our efforts to stop the spread of the virus
1:44 pm
faces a serious threat i would like to emphasize that we decided all measures that were limited until january 31st are now extended until february 14th that of course is a huge step and we understand what that means for citizens and others or private gatherings will be limited to one person from a household all the own kindergartens and schools all closed right the way through until the 14th of february and we've also heard a call for whoever can to work from home where that's possible mosques will continue to have to be worn on public transport in shops and in places where you going to be in prolonged close call. intact inside with another person the new mutations of the covert 19 virus seem to have been very high up on the list of things causing concern to politicians here in germany we hear the angle of merkel
1:45 pm
talk about it in the press conference we also heard the health minister yen spawn saying that these mutations of covert 19 will cause for serious worry isn't would soon follow this mutation is 1st and foremost more transmissible than others more transmission means more seriously ill people that's why limiting contact and continuing to bring down infection numbers is so important. when it comes to increasing the severity of those measures that are being taken to prevent the spread of covert 19 there are signs that there's not much stomach for it here in the country at the moment only 28 percent of those polled in germany said they wanted to see tougher restrictions put upon them that's down 21 percent on a previous poll while politicians aren't really in any kind of agreement when it comes to what's the best way to move forward for germany if they're only vaccinated
1:46 pm
people in a restaurant or cinema they can no longer in danger each other as long as it's not clear whether a vaccinated person can transmit the virus they can be no exceptions i would consider a curfew after 8 pm to be justified i reject nationwide curfews on principle. also took time out to talk about vaccines saying that she will be speaking to brussels on thursday about the use one for all and all for one vaccine program it's something that has come in for a bit of criticism here in germany due to how slow it's taken to roll that out just over one percent of the population here in germany that received both jobs of a covert $1000.00 vaccine that are needed. to stay in europe and move to italy for restaurants are pushing back against coronavirus restrictions many simply are refusing to shut their doors by 6 pm as required under new rules
1:47 pm
one business owner said she believes the infection risk posed by restaurants is being exaggerated. no no border the i'm not afraid that we might spread coffee because we respect all the regulations distance in masks disinfectants everything that is required of us i don't understand why in hotels and buy highways places that offer the same services as us seated lunches and dinners they say that the virus does not spread but here it does someone has to explain that to us i'm not an expert i'm not the one who has to say the measures that must be taken i hope that after a year they would be able to solve the problem at least partly but things are getting worse if we can fix it they should at least not make us fail so. the protests kicked off on social media earlier this month under the harsh tag open police were
1:48 pm
quick to follow in businesses that floated the rules with lee was the epicenter of the virus pandemic in europe early last year and various forms of tough restrictions have been in place ever since then mary much as a again say as her sector has been pushed to the brink of no beef with local weapons the state support if we can call it that didn't even cover the basics deals rents and so on we haven't had any real help i got find on friday 400 euros which i have already paid but it was then reduced to 280 i will stay open until they give me explanations and solutions i've had the same experience as most italians i don't know how our sector will survive we have very little work and earnings are gone we at the end after a year of this we don't have enough money to cover our expenses there's a new resident in the white house and he has acknowledged the huge challenges he's going to face as president more another 10 seconds in code.

1:50 pm
told to go is everything refuse to believe that we live in front of t.v. with. 5 they have and with effect ago they obviously sided not to take people's life. with my guy didn't tell you that. what we said in 2008 right here on this show was that because there was no attempt to reform what the banks had done and the global financial crisis was caused by the banks who were hoarding the cash they were sitting on the cash they were lending it here we are in 2021 exactly as they predicted they did not reform the banks in fact they just expanded their credit card they expanded their capacity to print and borrow and then give away the cash to their friends causing now this huge crisis. the world is driven by shaped by.
1:51 pm

1:52 pm
hubby was following the an organization server money for us your capitol hill. in past inaugurations during i guess you say a normal inauguration there'd be hundreds of thousands if not more people behind me instead there are flags so obviously the coded pandemic we knew this was going to be a much scaled back and smaller and much more subdued affair because of the cove in 1000 pandemic but then add in what happened january 6th and the intense security the red zone through you know around the national mall and around the capitol that massive security perimeter of the 25000 national guard troops but nonetheless joseph r. biden giving a speech about a 20 minute speech a message underscoring unity in america perhaps one of the most divisive and divided times in this country's history saying that america or democracy is precious democracy is valuable this is a day about democracy not about the candidate and that despite the events on january 6th democracy has prevailed jennifer lopez saying also lady
1:53 pm
gaga you know sing the national anthem but you know it is it is obviously this is a much more scaled down affair and just getting here it was very intense you know getting through the city we had to go all the way around the perimeter we had to go through a coded testing site where they made sure that you know we were we were tested as far as those in attendance you know you have cabinet future cabinet officials you have the supreme court justices you have members of congress plus one they're only allowed to bring one guest usually members of congress would have a contingent of people that have basically a number of passes they could give out that wasn't the case this year so these are all things that are representative of the day which is you know nonetheless is a sunny sunny beautiful but cold and windy windy day well as biden takes the reins in washington he'll have to deal with a crisis of trust in the government a poll conducted after the storming of the capital fund that 4 out of 5 americans
1:54 pm
believe the u.s. is quote fooling apart a similar. proportion of those surveyed said though the they were still proud to be american we can't miss the pinions in new york and in texas. there are real divisions and i think. he asked. i mean there's a lot of political divides that are often sort of manufactured i think the true 12 things that happen at the capitol i mean it's really easy to feel look at home to the school before i would say that really i'm a good spot there costs a lot of. this country i'm going to mark. you know that and then. say everything i know about the president there are 400000 individual americans dying from poor coronavirus you have millions of people unemployed you have a business is falling for bankruptcy can't play issues between the current president and the president coming it's not a very. it's
1:55 pm
a easy switch over i think a kind of what the current. president biden is doing as far as trying to impeach steele trying to sell president is kind of childish. donald trump broke with tradition by notes attending his successor's an oldish he was flown from the white house to a nearby military base for a brief sending sermon he gave a speech wishing with the new administration promising his supporters the. things that we've done have been just incredible and i couldn't have done i'm done it without you so just. a goodbye we love you we will be back in some form. or 3rd. will sometimes it is overstated but really the trump presidency has been like no other and while many are claiming they're glad it's over there are surely a few moments of nostalgia in store for us all here said donald trump himself might

1:59 pm
joint pain and fatigue in the us these patients are referred to as post coded long holos i talked to multiple doctors in my doctor and they said we have a feeling that you're going to have a hard time in recovery you're going to be one of those people that they consider a long haul or. seemed wrong. rowles just don't hold. any old belief yet to shape out these days he comes to advocate and engagement equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart when she's to look for common ground. social media platforms today function as the public square key to almost everything
