office is going undercover as 6 workers and customers to fight 6 trade. in the day's headlines a world health organization scientists and best are getting the origins of 19 questions the reliability of u.s. intelligence after washington says it wants to conduct its own probe in china. also this hour the european commission president admits to block was too late in authorizing coby vaccines as states struggle with supply shortages we heard from joe advisor. it's not a matter of race between countries 1st and which should. countries and the european union plan for foreigners population to be covered by the time. defense team accuses democrats of turning the country and as

a former president's impeachment trial gets underway in senate. and twitter bans another raft of conservative voices breaking its rules not to mention fraud and november's u.s. election. a very warm welcome to the program from all of us here at our teacher q in moscow let's get started with a live news update. a w.h.o. scientists has questioned the reality ability of u.s. intelligence on the origins of covert 19 after taking part in a source tracing mission in china i discussed the story with arches constantine rushkoff. i figure that is front and center to the story peter does show he is a british american viral a just and he was assisting the w.h.o. mission to hunt to find out the origins of the current so the scientists really didn't mince his words when he took to twitter to lash out at u.s.

intelligence for backing theories that the virus could have been man made in came from a chinese lab let's have a listen well now that joe biden has to look tough on china please don't rely too much on u.s. intelligence increasingly disengaged under trump and frankly wrong go in many aspects now why has it made such a fuss well for one its strong language from a u w h o representative who has taken on the us intelligence community questioning their credibility and the thing is that u.s. intelligence has a different version of why and how this pandemic came about and u.s. officials already claim that they're not going to accept the findings of these one mission until they could verify using their own intelligence broadly speaking we have expressed our concerns regarding the need for full transparency and access

from china. and the w.h.o. access from china and the w.h.o. to all information regarding the earliest days of the pen demick and that speaks volumes about the level of trust that the new u.s. administration has towards the w.h.o. and that is itself an interesting turn of events because as you remember when joe biden came to power he explicitly claim that he's going to reverse most the peace process or its policies especially the one on pulling out of international organizations like w h o but the america's overall stance in that issue doesn't seem like you changed a lot from what it was during the trial. united states pays them $450000000.00 a year china pays them $38000000000.00 a year and they're a puppet of china. china centric to put it nicer but they're a puppet of jonah well the w.h.o.

finally has a team sent there they're doing this investigation how we got any closer to figuring out the origins of covert 1000 then really you know if we talk about a bigger picture right that the scientific community is trying to find out the origins of this virus the source of this corona virus and that's why they sent this mission to to the chinese who the province where the virus was 1st detected in 2019 but the probe didn't give us you know a lot right away i mean the experts came only to one conclusion conclusion which is really important in the light of this ongoing spat between the u.s. and china and that is that the virus did not originate in the chinese lab and that it probably transmitted from animals presumably bats. to humans so again this is not exactly a year of revelation and we're still far from understanding the roots of the pandemic i guess what this story has shown to us is that the issue itself is highly politicized and clearly scientists are going to feel under immense pressure from

both american and chinese scientists and will that you know make things difficult to get to the bottom of the well almost certainly. meanwhile the kobe vaccine rollout in europe is being plagued by delays and supply shortfalls and the european commission president live on a line has for the 1st time admitted that the bloc was too slow and its response addressing the european parliament she said the bloc should have had vaccines earlier and that it overestimated its production capacity over funder lion defended the joint response strategy as the right way of dealing with the pandemic we spoke with w.h.o. adviser dr is that hard to do you think all vaccination efforts. need to be coordinated across borders. it's not a matter of race between countries who should get 1st and which block should get earlier i think we are all fighting this race against the virus so i think we will have to be. realistic in all these vaccine available 80 plus vaccines all

out in the countries but i think these are the countries and the european union in general need to plan for for its population to be covered by a certain period of time we have to acknowledge that this scale but the sheer scale of 19 vaccine is enormous so the demand for the vaccine is not common to the volume of vaccine that we have so there will have to be some privatization because of this global nature of 19 pandemic. restaurants cannot be within the national boundaries we all need to understand that everybody need to be safe if we want our cell to be safe and within this principle of global solidarity we called upon all countries to ensure that this global public good 19 vaccine should be acceptable and accessible to everybody irrespective of the income

status or income level this vaccine nationalism will will hurt the country themselves we should be cautiously optimistic at this despond of time given that we do have a new toolkit on our hands a vaccine the covert 19 vaccine on our hand but i think the do we need to keep a very very close. vigil on how the virus is behaving how the virus is our people our people are adjusting to these known non-pharmaceutical public health measures of hand washing using the mask and i think this is not the time to drop the guard i think this is the time. to be more vigilant and do more in terms of the disease surveillance and the response measures. donald trump's legal team has warned that the democrats push to convict him in the u.s. senate could push the country towards a civil war here's how day one of trump's trial unfolded they tell us that we have

to have this impeachment trial such as it is to bring about unity but they don't want unity and they know this so-called trial will tear the country in half leaving tens of millions of americans feeling left out of the nation's agenda. as dictated by one political party that now holds the power in the white house and in the national legislature well it's a very serious situation on capitol hill where we've got an impeachment trial underway donald trump's lawyers they call it absurd and unconstitutional meanwhile we've got the prosecution saying this is the comeuppance for treacherous donald trump and the backdrop for all of this is a country that is deeply deeply divided this trial will tear this country apart perhaps like we've only seen once before in our history we are really here because the majority in the house of representatives does not want to face donald trump as

a political rival in the future with this trial you will open up new and bigger wounds across the nation the constitution is a document designed to protect the rights of the minority not the rights of the majority now the charge against donald trump in the impeachment proceedings is inciting in surat action and they are arguing that under the 14th amendment of the us constitution trump is ineligible for office because he and gauged in inciting insurrection and this flows from the events of january 6th we've heard testimony from what happened at this point people are recapping of the situation where there were 5 deaths there were many injuries on capitol hill as trump supporters stormed in and penetrated the u.s. capitol congressional staffers were very afraid for their lives there was violence that unfolded and all of this has got the prosecution at the impeachment trial appealing to people's emotions and saying there must be harsh consequences for

trump if that's not an impeachable offense then there is no such thing what our country experienced that day. is the framers worst nightmare come to life this one senator said they couldn't have killed all of us this cannot be the future of america. we cannot have presidents inciting and mobilizing mob violence against our government and our institutions now these are very serious proceedings with a very big implications for the country however if you're looking on it seems like a rather theatrical and strange performance you've got the recitation of poetry you've got witnesses crying and breaking down into tears and i told my daughter tabitha. or told her how sorry i was and i promised her that it would not be like this again the next time she came back to

the capital with me. and you know what she said. she said dad. i don't want to come back to camp. you get the waving around of mao tse tung's little red book in order to make political points it's all very theatrical very explosive meanwhile all across the country millions of americans remain quite divided in the aftermath of an election they seem to be watching with lots of anger gun sales are up throughout the united states here's some of what we've heard from americans if you keep heading down the same way. they're going to push people into another civil war i'm very worried about this country where it's going. it's a bad thing he's out of office we'll be pleased to remove him from office he's already been removed he could get worse and it seems like every day we do good work that's not good for this conflict country decides to start going on democrats oh you know. i don't want to be the victim you know like honestly i never thought

about that have mean. it was sort of some point there will be a final vote on whether or not donald trump is indeed convicted regardless of the outcome donald trump has certainly made history he's the only president in u.s. history to have been impeached on 2 different occasions so quite dramatic goings on we've got the military all over washington d.c. we've got the country watching on television we've got a lot of division 74000000 americans voted for trump despite a pretty solid number voting against him impeachment proceedings continue even though donald trump has left office already and it is not the president the impeachment vote marches on words. twitter is continuing its crackdown on conservative commentators accused of spreading false information about the u.s. electoral process to the latest examples are jim hoffa founder of the website the

gay. way pundit and radio host wayne allen root they've both been blocked by twitter for what it called repeated violations of civic integrity policy they fell foul of the pop forms rules by promoting donald trump's claim that the november election was marred by fraud on the storming of the u.s. capitol last month twitter has banned more than $70000.00 accounts for similar reasons including that of the former president himself we spoke with wayne allen root about his ban he says alternative voices are being silenced this is a joe mccarthy which fights against conservative voices there try to eliminate dissent they're trying to eliminate diversity well they talk all day about diversity if you're black it's great if you're let's you know it's great if you're gay it's great if you're a woman it's great if you're transsexual it's great god forbid in the united states of america you'd be a chapter list conservative they want to destroy your life and silence you censure you ban you burn your books this is the irony you know the hero liberals all the

liberal activists is sol inskeep you wrote a book called rules for radicals and he always said look at that mera whatever you see blame the other guy democrats have spent 50 years attacking joba court the for which he wants now they're very good ads i don't even know why i was suspended to be showed me the tweet i do will of bet you that 74000000 americans that voted for trump agree with every word about sweet how do you ban someone's opinions when 74000000 people who have the waters agree with them as i mentioned earlier the founder of the gateway pundit was also banned by the social media giant after his site posted a video these are screen shots from the clip and jim hoffa claims it shows the delivery of absentee ballots to a point station and detroit hours after the deadline for deliveries had passed a site has pledged to release more such videos in the coming days as well. as important to remember the u.s. election officials have said there is no evidence of significant fraud in the 2020

presidential vote which they called the most secure in the country's history but jim hoffa of the gateway pundit thinks there's no justification for shutting out those who disagree with that twitter does not want is to release any more of this information they're citing as as spreading in violating their ethics clause that they just put in where you cannot challenge anything about the 20 twentieth's action and yet there are still individuals who are challenging the 2016 election that's still allowed on twitter they're so secure with their position why are they cracking down and eliminating eliminating. sites like myself from the social media platforms it doesn't make sense and this is what we've fought against for several months now. campaigners are demanding answers from u.k. police over the death of a black man the day after his arrest artist shaadi edwards daschle spoke to the family of muhammad hussein use my let me know.

he was me he was always know. when 11 by my actual guy me was the older cousin i mean he was known by the whole family and he asked the whole now why 24 year old mahmoud mohamed was arrested at home in cardiff on friday the 8th of january he was suspected of breaching the peace the us or at least the next morning without charge then after vibing back at his house in newport rhode he passed away in his sleep his family and lawyers allege it was due to serious injuries from the time spent in custody why did he die. because of you know because of bill who was the injuries they all we know. that. you know he looked you know

that way and he went home to rather than i don't want again not to. go on how are following muhammad's death hundreds took part in protests over successive nights in cardiff they demanded the release of c.c.t.v. and party of on footage from offices at cardiff bay police station many health black lives matter banas and compare the case to that of george floyd the 46 year old black man killed while being arrested in minneapolis in the usa back in may he came out with bruises and cuts to his body and to his face this is a death of a young healthy lack who was arrested by the police during his detention he came into contact with 52 police officers and within hours he died it is absolutely right so it should be good in the same context as george floyd this is not unusual in black communities the forces say that early findings indicate no

misconduct issues and no excessive force but have referred themselves to the independent office for police conduct as part of an investigation c.c.t.v. and body one video has already been and will continue to be examined this will assist in establishing an understanding the events that took place early findings by the force indicate no misconduct issues and no excessive force we are aware of the extensive reporting on social media but due to the ongoing investigation referral we are unable to comment any further this stage one month on the questions surrounding mohammed's death remain unanswered. the trust between the police and the community appears to be at an all time low the official report when it comes could change all of our it but until then this family's campaign for justice continues shotty edwards dusty r.t. u.k. . russia has hit back at lawmakers after claims the european foreign policy

chief was too soft on moscow during his recent trip foreign ministry spokeswoman marie as a hard of a accuse those politicians of throwing a tantrum i'll reveal a secret about our western partners when they fail to carry out a flogging and throw a tantrum the aim was to carry out that public flogging which i think has been planned very thorough only 50 lawmakers have backed a motion to force out over his trip he defended himself but also attacking russia over the visit of an e.u. parliamentary such a. breeze a deep disappointment and growing mistrust between the to be union and russia. wanted to test to do russian sorry jews are interested in issues attempts to reverse did it did you audition our relations and seized the opportunity to have a more constructive dialogue. the answer has been clear. no more

scout abused the visit of high representative bordello to you merely ate and offend the european union mr borrero and the on the other hand made a fool of himself last week you must go by his actions you made a mockery of the ambition of the e.u. to play a major role in the world stage the catalan leaders have been sentenced from 9 to 13 years in prison for our nation our friend. we have that the double standard applied why do you undermine its global credibility as a defender of freedom. do you cannot go around the world recruitment being received that does not apply to chelles imus happy as anybody else to stand up for anybody's rights including no foul nice but let's be honest if i was and he's officious anti immigrant racist on maybe 4 percent of the support and we wouldn't be discussing

him after all if he'd been arrested anywhere else other than in russia. or that left speaker you heard there with claire daley a member of the european parliament for island and she is joining us now to discuss this further why do you think burrell's moscow trip has gone down so badly with some in the european parliament. oh i think so unfortunately it's been an ongoing campaign in psyche european union i think in many ways stricken by the military industrial conflicts to sort of hold. the enemy in order to justify it much more securitized e.u. and we have this narrative of supposedly european guy using whatever they are that we're supposed to bring them to the rest of the worlds and not russia is playing both of which is obviously nonsense i think i regret the fact that it does reflect a deteriorating relationship but there are certainly elements many elements inside

your p perth's too are happy to play a sort of an anti russian current and we are seeing the us increasingly so now i see if we could continue with that in your speech you mention rissa phobia and the way the e.u. treats problems here and russia differently to other countries could you elaborate on that. yes incredible well as i said in my contribution we have cheerleaders since the effectively in current series of for 10 years for journalism for exposing us war crimes on just we're not even allowed to mention his name and i'm you have records on the rights of the union i make the calling best and in spain today actually and you know not for his going to prison for the lyrics in his songs it's the weather speakers mentioned the castle and leaders who are in prison it's over a 10 year sentences and yet the e.u. is going around telling the rest of the world that they're the greatest defenders of democracy this has nothing to do with democracy and there's no sense of basis

that the us had no bonnie being arrested and it didn't matter at all they're looking for excuses to kind of keep targets militia we have another example maybe tomorrow where we're seeing with the nuclear plant envelop fair enough they're very concerned clear safety and so on but this seems to be more driven by european energy concerns out of fear of keeping have better words more trying to ensure russian and energy sources rather entice england directions of the e.u. so often when concerns are raised they have the geopolitical aspect to them as well as we were hearing earlier there were plenty of anti russian voices in that session yesterday but do you think that there are plenty of other any peace who feel the same as you do but are afraid to speak out. not enough i would say. the hostility was quite strong and the words you know go back to russia source it's

chance there was maybe one or 2 other speakers who would have expressed similar views to mine and i'm i would be such a serious study i'm too russian majority are probably here for sure yeah that seems to be objected across a number of communities strengthened by people who are in some ways in hock to the arms industry so decern you are being contrary representatives are particularly aggressive in rigor. all right claire can you hear me we've been speaking with claire daley a member of the european parliament for ireland we have lost the connection with her but we do want to thank her for her comments. demonstrators have defied a ban on large gatherings to denounce last week's military takeover of myanmar police have blocked major highways in response to that the army seize power after

accusing the government of election fraud and arrested the country's de facto leader. we've passed hard water cannon and made multiple arrests of ultra-orthodox jews writing against kobe to restrictions the protesters blocked traffic during trash then damaged vehicles and rolled stones at other objects at the officers they pose a lockdown and in particular the closure of religious schools 2. that's been our wrap up of the day's top news for now but don't forget you can always find us on many of your favorite social media platforms like facebook and instagram for up to the minute reports.

knowing so little would see that and who didn't blog but i'll blog good. i know you don't buy that in a can matter a canard while. on a bad national. trend i mean i. just lost book deals on miles on the model that has human level. and the national association. must know how to set the community. but out of it all small a lot of the so what is. going to be the not to give us the impetus that all of you in the mostly mean to me get

a feel good. shot and know it and when i'm. in my name a few of them. join me every thursday on the alex i'm unsure when i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sport i'm sure. i'll see that. imagine thinking up a future textbook on the early years of the 21st century what are the chapters called gun violence school shootings homelessness 1st it was my job it was my fear of living with my savings i have nothing i have nothing there's no little trust aloof or resources i look for jobs i look for everything i can to make this house. and all i end up doing is. the road to the american dream paved with did refute. this very idealized image all.

americans look pasta the deaths that happen every single day this is a history of the usa and america. hello and welcome to cross talk you're all things are considered i'm hearing internet censorship is happening at an accelerated pace conservatives and

progressives are being to monetized and more up more times than not the censorship is never really explained we are left to assume when the phrase community standards is invoked we somehow are threatening power but that's what dissent is all about. just cussing internet censorship. i'm joined by my guest in los angeles kim however since she's the host of the kim iverson show we also have elwood he is a regular on the jimmy door show as well as host of the political vigilante on you tube and in baltimore we have wayne to break he is host of the award winning way to treat a cast all right cross couples in fact that means you can jump in anytime you want and i always appreciated ok let's go to came 1st in los angeles on this very early morning for her kim what is off the rice and unauthorized speech in our environment here because there is of we have a progressive and we have

a conservative on this panel and both of us are getting screwed by you to ok so what is authorized and authorized according to the powers that be well we can only gas and my guess would be that the authorized speech is just whatever fits the establishment's narrative at this point that's what it seems to be i mean people who are being to platform to end censored are the ones that are speaking out maybe critical of the government i mean i don't know what kind of world we're living in right now but this is not the america i was led to believe would be the america of my adulthood that's for sure wayne same question to you i mean because you know we never know when and we're never know when you step over the line that is in vogue community standards and you know and how people feel and how people feel not how they think and why we should be having a debate go ahead. i agreed.
