still very proud of the clear in it together. in the day's headlines the czech republic becomes the latest country to break ranks with a block and turn to russia but the greek drama virus vaccine. in the netherlands a bomb goes off outside a covert testing center calls in months on the rest of the country and the government controversial curfew. and a death sentence for yemenis that's how the u.n. describes this year's drastic fall and donations for its aid program we speak to a refugee council spokesperson. on a generation of children will know nothing. and to see.

you watching our 2 international coming to you live from the russian capital where it's just turned 4 and to the program. the czech republic has lost patience with europe's vaccination program and turn to russia for its sputnik feet chrono marse job the country's 1st deputy prime minister has proposed for going just ration for the vaccine to get its rollout off the ground are just models to have has more about the situation in europe. so there's 3 european nations that have a green light to dispute it despite the european medicines agency taking its time really taking its time to approve sputnik so these 3 nations have already sidelined the european union and of the said look the situation is incredibly desperate so the czech republic hungry and now serve vacuum which is just received its 1st batch of. vaccines there's going to be millions more that are going to be delivered by summer so the prime minister's obviously very happy that he's managed to secure

more vaccines for the people nevertheless there's now a scandal there's a scandal because the president of slovakia has come out she paid lip service to people's lives but already she's she said that vaccination shouldn't be carried out at the expense of political stability of course saving lives goes beyond any political controversy but even exceptional actions can be taken in such a way so as not to destroy the ruling coalition humiliate opponents or question people's confidence in vaccinations and cause further conflict in society it is remarkable coming out in front of your people in the middle of a pandemic and telling them. you know your health is important but what is even more important is the stability of the ruling coalition. you know it just goes to highlight that the deep divisions in europe and there are incredibly deep divisions in europe over the way the pandemic vaccination in the rule out of the vaccines has

been handled it isn't the russian vaccine that is undermining people's faith in the european union it is their handling of this crisis in germany for example 51 percent of people asked in a recent poll whether you know the the vaccination has been handled well or badly by the european union 51 percent more than half of germans have said it's been shambles the. the european union has handled it so initially the european union came out and said look let's let's all do it together so give up your power new nation needs to buy themselves we'll handle so we'll get you the vaccines but then of actions and what ultimately happened is they bungled it 1st they were too expensive then they were too late because the united states britain snatched up all the vaccines look at the statistics only 5 percent of europeans have been able to get a single job that is compared to 14 percent in the united states already 30 percent

in the united kingdom so europe is lagging far far behind that european nations understand that this is a catastrophe this is a catastrophe of a huge number of levels of a political level or the health care level and ultimately what has happened is that all these nations have said look we're going to do this ourselves obviously the europeans the european agencies the euro kratz they have fumbled this so we'll have that ourselves you have poland running to the chinese with hands outstretched begging for that scene quotas you have austria. going out and saying that you know we're going to now cooperate with israel to develop 2nd generation 2nd generation vaccines denmark as well saying that will work with israel and 2nd generations vaccine to target all the strains and all that and ultimately the austrian chancellor so this is a leader of

a european nation coming out and saying they've lost hoops in europe the way that europe handles vaccine rollout. we must prepare for further mutations and should no longer be depended soley on the e.u. in the production of 2nd generation vaccines look brussels understands that what has happened has been a catastrophe you have. officials the european union coming out and say we're sort of apologizing to citizens all over europe for the way they've handled things but saying that you know it isn't is a do over yet we can still recover we'll get your vaccines there's no need to run around and make shady deals and you know buy up vaccines that were supposed to be received by other european nations you have a situation where it's a free for all now nevertheless the europeans assure that they can fix things and they're now saying that perhaps perhaps we'll try to speed up the whole bureaucratic process that has caused all of this and get you emergency approval

for vaccines now it could be an emergency authorization of vaccines that you level we shared liability among member states you remember in the early days of a pandemic when countries all over the world nato allies are good neighbors board put up supplies from each other we're talking about mosques ventilators we all we all remember the diplomatic crises that that caused this situation now is remarkably similar so so there is no united front you know what you can get your hands on you get your hands on and this is a situation that obviously isn't optimal for europe in these difficult times especially economically politically all over the world nevertheless european bureaucrats aren't giving up hope they believe that they can still fix things the problem is of course that member states don't believe that they can. in all over in

the netherlands a bomb has exploded outside a covert testing center. alas cause only minor damage to surrounding buildings and no one was injured it comes falling growing tensions in the country are lockdowns there is more details here as are to charlotte n.c. well this explosion took place in the early morning just outside that qubits and area called both in costco which is about 50 to 55 kilometers north of amsterdam windows were shattered and the investigation so far has been able to uncover metal pieces of around 10 centimeters by 10 centimeters the suggestion is this could have seen a metal pipe bomb that exploded outside the front of the center a security guard was inside because it was just before the center was due to open but they are said not to have been injured in this incident a perimeter has been set up in those investigations are now are continuing but the

police have said that they clearly believe that this was an intentional attack we don't know yet what exactly exploded the explosives experts must 1st investigate what we can see is this something like that doesn't happen by accident it's has to be planted well this is not the 1st time we've seen an attack on a qubit send in the netherlands back in january just when we're seeing this massive tensions in the country over the fact that the government imposed a controversial coup that there was a coup that sent that was set on fire in the village. that's several nights of rights rights which is being described as some of the worst violence the country has seen in decades let's just have a reminder of what happened. now

this latest incident comes of course as the country is heading towards a general election that's due to take place in the middle of march and the current through at the moment is being run by a k. take ministration that's because marc rich's previous administration decided to stand down that was over a scandal unrelated to kobe going team but this election is seen very much as being a referendum on administration so many people are unhappy about how his government handled the coded 19 pandemic this is what opposition parties had to say it was still looking everybody up having to see measures just showing our economy like this. social life really be you know you're

a student by the social life or you stay or should i go see our elderly people well the point of view of the current caretaker government is that these measures have been necessary as restrictive as they may have been but just to give you a sense of how angry people are the netherlands the head of the health service in the netherlands now has to have a security guard because this is also being directed towards the health authorities it's really an issue that's been spiraling out of control. and what seems to be another case of censorship you to pass block donald trump's 1st major speech since leaving the white house on channels including reuters a.b.c. and r.t.e. or lack of content warnings. at address was widely criticized in the liberal media with the washington post even labeling it a quote stream of delusion depravity malevolence and make

a media given that you to block the speech on many channels you may find it difficult to make up your own mind about it former pennsylvania senator bruce marks who represented donald trump in the supreme court believes the former president still has a right to express his opinion whatever it may be. he hasn't brought it upon himself because he's doing what he's allowed to do under the us constitution we have the 1st amendment it protects freedom of speech doesn't protect speech simply because it's right it doesn't protect speech just because it's popular it protects all speech so i don't think he's brought it upon himself at all i think he's absolutely entitled to his opinion well there's no doubt that there's a double standard and they can kill 2 birds or even more than 2 birds with one stone you tube is been biased against president trump obviously against r.t.d. it what's ludicrous is nobody was telling you to take down all the false statements that adam schiff and nancy pelosi and chuck schumer made about the russia hoax

investigation i mean if there's anything that has been demonstrated to be absolutely untrue over the last 4 years is that donald trump didn't conspire with russia to win the 2016 election and where is you tube taking down you know videos that have to do with the infamous steal you know gossip it was just made up absolutely scandalous allegations about donald trump and his hotel room at the ritz carlton moscow but there is a liberal organization who will structure in america that wants to suffocate free speech and sadly enough you tube and facebook and twitter are part of. and we asked for clarification from you tube they said the video lacks enough context and information for what it called terms of violence of speech has also been a response from the platform on how this information should be provided during a life eat. vance's false claims that invoice price fraud errors

or glitches change the outcome of the $220.00 presidential election is not allowed and you tube. but the block doesn't appear to have been applied consistently the video is still up on a number of western outlets including the independent and c.b.s. among others none of which contain warning messages you know all a poll last year by the pew research center found that most americans think social media censors political views and also found that many republicans believe that big tech companies are left leaning legal and media analyst lionel things that you tube's latest move is an attempt to silence political opponents. google and you tube and other other platforms like this are of such in the main nature as you're almost like utilities today imagine if you're on the phone almost on your phone drops because you dared mention hydroxy chloroquine or said something in favor of donald trump you wouldn't have it and if the utility said well maybe you should

start your own phone company would say that's ridiculous so it's time for us to recalibrate and redefine what these platforms are they're not they're not the union platform this is you tube this is international it's more than that and these distinctions have to change and what it is is these agencies these platforms are if you will agencies or instruments of whatever the shadow government the ruling class the deep state i don't know but you're being used as clenching devices to punish people to get in line and people love these platforms so much that they will not talk about or think about anything in fear of losing their beloved you to were facebook and whatever actually know exactly what they're doing. the controversy surrounding the conference doesn't end with you tube's blocking of trump speech the hotel chain that hosted the event is now facing boycott calls over a stage design that some thought bore a resemblance to

a nazi symbol held often explains it was the hyatt hotel that hosted the event and now it's getting it in the neck such a stupid and short sighted business decision by her yet i've stayed in that hotel chain countless times over the years never again. in other words how you had to simply find hosts nonces hate high out hotels highly inclusive does not mean hosting people who are not highly inclusive hosting a fascist nazi convention is the antithesis of inclusiveness you have made a grave error in judgment the imminent boycotts you're going to feel for years to come some fact checking websites are now even questioning whether it was done on purpose the shape of the nazi symbol is eerily similar to the shape of the stage at sea pink however we are presently unable to confirm whether this was a deliberate choice made by the event organizers the moments we rate this claim is unproven. the theory is that the sea pack stage resembled the odal room used

in the archaic norse an anglo-saxon alphabets as the equivalent of the modern letter o and also meaning estate or heritage the nazis used this symbol during their rule in germany and many groups that track anti-semitism and white supremacy is a classify it as a hate symbol now the hyatt hotel has denounced the symbol and said they had no power over how the stage was designed at the c. pak conference i whenever the organizers of see pac say this is all a conspiracy staged design conspiracy is outrageous and slanderous we have a long standing commitment to the jewish community council culture extremists must address don't assume it isn't within their own ranks broadly stands with jewish allies including those speaking from the stage. moreover some jewish people have even mocked the attacks on sea pak as the grandson of holocaust survivors and as

a proud american marine and jew i find these types and see parts of the outrageous and grotesque sort of to destroy a narrative but he was a friday night critics of the liberal narrative of pointed out that nazis are far from the only people to use old norse rooms for example the symbol of bluetooth is derived from ancient european writings symbols that were also appropriated by fascists and the lord of the rings books and movies also contain similar symbols i was at sea pack and i you know eve anyone who told me that sea pack was an anti sematic of bad i would have just actually laughed in their face 1st of all the stage would at this stage would have been an upside down version of the oval room so if they were really trying to put it in a position of of saying that that's part of their sensibilities then why would they put it upside down secondly as a member of the audience i didn't even know what the stage looked like until i saw it on twitter you couldn't even see it from the audience perspective so who

designed the stage was an intentional is see pac responsible is hyatt hotel responsible we may never really know the answer but one thing that is for sure is that this controversy is certainly a sign of the times in the united states of america caleb up and r.t. new york political blogger athlete brian logan believes the situation could have been different where the hotel not hosting a conservative event. the conspiracies are there just to conservatives and people believe in it because there's already a bias against conservatives anyway so the mainstream media has placed it to seed ok conservatives are bad they're racist they're hateful so when we say an outlandish thing about them well we can just make it where you believe it because you already believe they're bad anyway so is that really a big stretch to think they would do something else days bad because it's already thing got there about going to be in bay to begin with and maybe the whole thing about the rune is there but it does mean it was intended to be they they sanction

doesn't matter all that matters is they can link it some kind of way and have regular people believe it because there was already preprogramming to exist their global news update continues after the short break. the world is driven by. dares thinks. weak to ask. anyone else seemed wrong. wrong just don't call. me.

yet to shape out just being active. and in danger because to train. when something you find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground . welcome back the international community may have signed a death sentence for millions of people in yemen that's what the united nations has said after it received less than half of the amount needed for this year's aid program we spoke to norwegian refugee council spokesperson. it's

shocking that at a time when we have warning about a potential historic famine in yemen that countries like saudi arabia which i think pledged full 130000000 that's a fraction of the 1000000000 they pledged in 2019 the u.a.e. as well as another country which is directly responsible for the situation of hunger in yemen through its role in the whole oh he pledged 200 and that's him and he and the u.k. i'm not hostages aid to yemen. and again the u.k. it's irresponsible for what's going on because of its sounds of weapon what this means for young children in yemen is that an entire generation of children will know nothing about wall and disease what they will see will see a generation whose development is time to hit. the u.n. raise last than half of the $3900000000.00 needed for its 2021 a program of

a number of countries giving less last year the dire situation stems from the 6 year conflict and yemen that has led to the world's worst humanitarian crisis. yemenis themselves helping themselves all the time and you know aid isn't the only thing that was keeping families afloat i'm not families with guilt when they could stay. going out to work trying to get. you know families in yemen

help war has been going on for 6 years the communities themselves they've been taking in families who've been displaced they've been sharing their very little that they have but the problem is yemenis they are an incredibly resilient population but they've run out of options coated 19 means more people have lost their jobs it means that yemenis who are working abroad and helping these able to do so so there's very little resistance that yemenis have had so that's why the international community just step in with the money and support but ultimately as well what we need is an end to this war we need a nationwide scenes because the conflict is that is at the root cause of the hunger in this country. we're going to start acting now that's what joe biden senior advisor has said about addressing systemic racism in america the comment comes as

congress is considering forming a special commission to study the issue. we don't want to wait on a study we're going to act and now we have to start breaking down systemic racism and barriers that have failed people of color back and especially african-americans there's a reason why the founders of free was created our government the way that they did there's a reason why the united states senate is supposed to be there as well suppose that upper house of our congress to make sure that just because people's passions are inflamed at the moment that new laws are not created just because people are passionate about something after a moment it's supposed to deal with your deliberative body and that's what needs this needs to be deliberate if we want to have a conversation great go ahead and create commission and put it through and let it be let it be ran through whether it's the u.s. congress and or state legislatures but don't say oh we're excited about this let's

make it happen there's a price to pay for. the special commission supported by democratic lawmakers is expected to examine slavery pass discriminatory policies and measures to tackle racism today it could include changes to how history is taught in the u.s. and reparations payments a bill to set up the commission it was 1st put forward in 1989 and then repeatedly reintroduced but never passed executive director of an hyphenated america again believes the bill could appeal to some voters. it sounds like a great idea it doesn't really but i'll just if we go with it it sounds like a great idea now let's see how you actually make it work cindy because you know one of the trysting to stay in place is that with the 23 and me applications they did genetic test everything what you're finding is there's a whole lot of black folks out there who are all black right there's there's a whole lot of white folks they're not quite as white as they'd like to think that there's been some so ethnic mixing along the way but then here check this out and

united states of population has a population of about 330000000 people roughly one 3rd about 100000000 people united states of america have at least one ancestor who came through ellis island and so you have people whose ancestors came to united states long after slavery was abolished and outlawed united states so you're going to tell me that someone for example whose 'd family came from czech was of aki in poland or italy or whatever like that we're going to hold them accountable for slavery when their families were not even here so do i say do i expect this to go through where 'd there is reparations in the amount that it would really be necessary in order for to make any difference you know in no way shape or form do i believe that there's 'd going to be multiple trillions of dollars added to the federal deficit federal debt in order to give reparations to black voters but they'll form this commission this bureau ribbon panel to give that impression and it's basically virtue signaling to

black voters that's a wrap up of the things happens for now but don't forget you can always find us on many of your favorite social media platforms like twitter and instagram afton it reports. tough. kid.

kind of. thing going on in. those she don't consume don't tell you then doesn't do the hotel a full day on the stand on the mobile phone in that are equal in its insistence on what he calls a stance move back. don't. tell him till the live up to those wooden missiles this is also the acid all. there is a growing consensus the biden ministration is off to was slow start to date the new president has relied upon executive orders this is not unusual but what does that this president apart is the emphasis on what could be called weaponized empathy this administration has embraced it well kristie agenda and all of their visions

become with this region. this is a boom box the one for the show you care for them it's. for in washington coming up divided ministration is ramping up its efforts to take on china's allegedly unfair trade practices by taking all paths into consideration plus the game stop saga is making or churn to capitol hill as president joe biden's pick to head the securities and exchange commission faces a concerned senate panel and later facebook is being are paying out hundreds of millions of dollars following a court ruling on its financial recognition technology we'll bring you all the details with a packed show today so let's dive right in. and the biden administration is taking

a tough stance on china saying that it is willing to use quote all available tools to fight china and its reported unfair trade practices so what does that mean for trade agreements between the 2 nations moving forward we're talking about the world's 2 largest economies here join me now to discuss this boom bust co-host and investigative journalist ben swan ben always a pleasure to have you on bet i want to break this down for us what explain for us the statement by the by the administration that specifically are these tools that they're referring to you have the problem with this story is that we don't know what specifically the tools are britain because even though this very strongly worded statement came out on monday it's very short on specifics in fact what the by the ministration is essentially doing is kind of laying out a general framework saying we're going to use all the tools available to us in order to deal with china and to make sure that they do not continue.
