in the headlines this hour restricted shopping and night curfews protesters clashed with police as german lawmakers molder government over the ruling regions to force even harsher lockdowns. celebrities to seduce france into saving potentially dangerous astra zeneca influences could be used to shift the unpopular code if it jap but people aren't buying it. celebrity is that people like kos i

don't think they have more knowledge than the specialists i will not get vaccinated because some famous person tells me to is like that telling me jump off the breach i'm not going to do that. black lives matter rallies fans by us democrats go out of control on warnings that's not officers conviction for george floyd's killing is not enough. very good morning to you it's 9 am here in moscow and you're watching r.t. international with me caring. german politicians are considering a bill to let the government overrule regional powers and force holiday covert restrictions including stopping personal contacts and shutting sports facilities it

sparked police clashes with angry demonstrators. on. wednesday the bundestag the german parliament voted through amendments to the infection protection act which would essentially take powers to impose covert restrictions away from the 16 states of germany and give that power to the federal government here in berlin now this is being called an emergency brake what it will do is it will give uniformity to what is essentially been a year's worth of a patchwork of covert measures that have differed from state to state across germany this will allow the federal government and angela merkel's government here

in berlin to impose things like a curfew from 10 pm until 5 am also restrictions on meeting with other households there will be the closure of sports facilities and leisure facilities also restrictions and perhaps closures or non essential retail when it comes to schools they'll be a separate market put aside if it reaches $165.00 new infections per 100000 of the population then schools will close their doors to students and revert back to distance learning now it's fair to say that these new measures of resulted in a mixed opinion amongst the german population and they are up there thought the i don't know this new interest lation will do much i think we should have done something much earlier also today they see one thing tomorrow something else and then they do something and then do not stick to it it's going to be. the new legislation is very very important i'm a doctor myself and can therefore say you can really do it consistently now so it's

really bring something everything else will not ultimately bring much success i believe that the new version of the national virus control all goes against our basic law or at least restricts our fundamental rights far too disproportionately. germany is currently in the middle of a 3rd wave of covert 19 and it's expected that this emergency brake were. he pulled and last until at least the end of april perhaps as long as the end of may in the last 24 hours journey so just under $30000.00 new code infections and not rate of infection currently stands at $160.00 new cases per 100000 of population across the whole country now there are regional differences with some areas faring better than others but it does look like the break is set to be pulled once it passes german politicians told us the changes to threaten fundamental freedoms. i was one

of the protest protest kosovo's one of the key speak on the street protests also warned one of these 250 year m.p.'s hello today against. it is. quite softly speaking to callie didn't fix the protection act yeah it's cold that you fixed protection act but it's funky small ass like an enabling act yes you know we are very sensitive film in germany due to truman history about enabling acts. by which government is crown to such a huge power that it could be it will never give away any more in the future to be seen when a building act empowers the government to you saw it for the whole ringback of germany were few and all the other pressing measurements looked on and so on without the reach homes. to see the ambulance and in the 11 had to discover that

the parliament at least decides on the ball now before it was just a group of. presidents of confederate states and the chancellor now it's a parliament that is about the measures that it says contradictionary and in itself you have on the one hand reasonable things that for example you have to. measure a senate you have reasonable things like if there is a high incidence of security measures have to be 2nd but on the other hand it's no scientific condiment for doing it because if you from 10 o'clock in the that is. abusing the basic right of freedom of movement and that of calls causes social discontent and calls a smell that people are frustrated. as germany tightens restrictions britain

loosens that as. but that may soon change with a certain visitors to the u.k. with fake negative covert certificates more later in the program. may use celebrities too and ties the public into getting the astra zeneca shot but well the people bite artie shaw dubinsky hit the streets of the capital to find out . celebrity power could be about to be whole honest for its most bizarre campaign to date helping to convince people to have the astra zeneca job questions over its possible links to rare blood clots and its effectiveness have essentially made it roll the design a rouble for some leaving the french leadership scratching its head and wondering how to make it more appealing we have had difficulties convincing people on astra zeneca we must think about communication and our ability to convince if we want the

vaccination campaign to improve though the president to may have been part of that given his previous buz vaccine the real problem with astra zeneca is that it doesn't work the way we were expecting it to the problem is so bad that in the city of nice a covert vaccination center got to be closed over the weekend when only 58 people turned up despite some 4000 doses of astra zeneca. grabs so how did change people's mornings that's where those celebs come in it's reported the government is musing full blown communication campaign that would be headed by famous people because in a crisis that's who you trust right. celebrity is that people like kos i don't think they have more knowledge than the specialists. if it's

a celebrity who says that i don't care we don't know what influenced them to do it with social media it's too easy for people to be persuaded of anything. i will not get vaccinated because some famous person tells me to it's like they're telling me jump for breach i'm not going to do that. we know that these a product placements and it turns out that they themselves have not been vaccinated it might influence people but i personally rely more on medical expertise and scientific reports fears over the link to the rare blood clots from vaccines isn't confined to france so either in sweden several regions of reported cases of people out refusing to have the astra zeneca joab in my department we had planned for a 150 patients aged over $65.00 with diabetes who were to be vaccinated there were 20 who cancelled ahead of time and 7 who left once they found out which vaccine

they would get one said i don't want to die and left immediately we're still is the loser a few cells all resulting in vaccines being thrown away and all of this is taking place as the european medicines agency the world health organization and even sweden public health authority are continuing to stress that the benefits of the vaccine for outweigh any risks so why are people still shelling it probably because of the side effects people don't believe in science and the more i think it's. the social media these discussions going on the social media because of the bad reputation in other countries that have decided not to take the risk a tool since that link with rare blood clots was raised the rollout of astra zeneca remains suspended in countries. like norway and denmark but as countries

struggle to convince citizens that the short is safe to use the e.u. itself has admitted that they may not be renewing its contract which begs the question why bother convincing people i talked with geology r.t. carries. the conviction of former officer derek show even for the death of george floyd has only boyd black lives matter demonstrators they flooded back on to the streets noting the police shooting of a black teenage girl on the day all of the verdict shows a total lack of progress. authorities claim they were justified in shooting the 16 year olds but time zones to probe however protesters have a little ready run out of patience calling on police to be defunded antis cut with quote kill and cops parties don't courts or reports as rallies fueled by the

democratic party itself could now be spiraling out of control. the verdict guilty but the masses far from satisfied it wasn't long before celebration over show evidence faith once more turned into anger. you. don't want your. arms are. right and in walked the democrats ready to tell the protestors we're on your side one of the 1st to do so was former president barack obama who praised the verdict while saying it was far from a sufficient step in doing away with racial bias but what did the u.s. his 1st black president really do to fix things for while black america after all it was under his administration that the black lives matter movement was even born when protests erupted in baltimore following the 2015 death of freddie gray in police custody obama decided to ignore it instead electing to wine and dine at the

white house correspondents dinner welcome to the white house correspondents dinner . the night when washington celebrates itself. someone's got to do it 6 years later progressives are paying a lot of lip service to solving problems they have failed to fix it's not justice and i'll explain to you right it's not justice. it's not justice because justice 8 george floyd going home tonight to be with his family this is but in many skill step on the path to justice next tops independent agency to investigate. police misuse of force criminalize violence against protesters de-militarized police departments disband and deconstruct field police departments some are taking a more sentimental approach making sure everyone knows the death of their new martyr makes them very sad thank you killers. for sacrificing your life with

your name will always be anonymous with death also spoke to john did you originally george's young daughter if you guess he changed the world and the tone of this afternoon. that he did change the world since the campaign trail biden has spoken with the victim's family multiple times assuring them that his administration was on the side of justice even appeared to border on justifying the pressure that activists and vandals were putting on the court process the jury heard the evidence carried out their civic duty in the midst of extraordinary moment under extraordinary pressure for so many. feels like it took all of that. for the judicial system to deliver a just just basic countability naturally that lied and ministrations pandering to anti police protesters has radicalized the republican party and the opposite

direction so much so that it's now illegal for drivers to run over road blocking protesters in the red state of florida we saw really unprecedented disorder and rioting throughout the summer of 2020 and we said that's not going to happen here in the state of florida and we wanted to make sure that we were able to protect the people of our great state people's businesses and property and it is the strongest anti writing pro a law enforcement piece of legislation in the country one big verdict on a whole lot of unsolved problems and the 2 ruling parties at each other's throats tragedies like the recent police shooting of a 16 year old black teenager in columbus ohio just continue to pile up with neither side ready to come to a compromise the american political structure of the constitutional structure is so antiquated and so shot through 'd with undemocratic practices and. bias that it would take

a top to bottom thorough political structural reform in order to put america on a new racial footing and i don't see it happening any time soon but short of that there will be no progress whatsoever i am absolutely convinced. he's around say the missile was fired and seems territory and alarms went off at a nuclear science without nonstory and small coming up off of a small break. welcome to max kaiser financial survival guide. looking forward to year that's without. yanks this is what happens to pensions in britain. watched as a report. is your

back u.k. border staff say around 100 people a day are trying to get into bursts and with fake covert certificates raising questions if existing restrictions keep the country safe from foreign virus variants. picks up the story. in the u.k. cases of corona virus and cope with 19 deaths a fully following the look of the vaccine rollout but there are concerns this progress could be scuppered by the variants of the disease being brought into the country by people using fake coded negatives certificates foreign holiday travel both leaving and entering the u.k. is found that business travels allowed the government website tells travelers to the u.k. before they set out they must provide a passenger locator for at proof of a negative coronavirus test taken within the 3 days before arrival this could be a printed documents an e-mail or text message failure to show it could mean no travel or 500 pounds fine on arrival the traveler must ensure the test meets the

right standards and the results must be in english french or spanish with personal information matching the travel documents and the tests provide us contact details but border immigration and customs staff say these documents are very easy to forge and in many cases officers have no way of checking whether they're genuine it's predominantly taken on trust we do get 100 or more day of corbett's to see if it gates that to a carriage while the e.u. says police agency europol has already warned travelers to be aware of all denies to criminal gangs selling fake coded negatives certificates these have been found at british french and spanish airports online and in the netherlands via mobile messaging apps for as much as $300.00 euros each as long as travel restrictions remain in place due to the pandemic it is very likely that criminals will seize the opportunity of producing and selling fake covert 900 tests of recruits given the

widespread technological means available in the form of high quality printers and different software fraudsters are able to produce high quality counterfeits forged or fake documents and talk to 20000 people entering the. u.k. every day most are poor yes who are in the large group of exam jobs and people including children under 11 who don't need to take a test which raises the question of whether the certificate in system or any passport scheme could work in siri or in practice could either a challenge is around international travel you only have to look across the continent and see the rise in case rates in many of our nearest neighbors it has been in the past the case that those rising infection rates have seen their way through to the u.k. we're hopeful that that won't happen this time around because of our progress with the vaccine and so on but we do need to be cautious about that but the big worry about fake certificates is letting people into the u.k.

you were carrying you could variance like those from india south africa and brazil which could be more resistant to antibodies this would diminish the impact of the u.k.'s vaccination program and thought the economic upturn then just one forged document costing a few 100 pounds could cost thousands of lives and millions in lost revenue kate partridge r.t. london. raid sirens have reportedly been heard near israel's secretive dimona nuclear site that sounds israeli defense forces claim a surface to air missile was launched from syria artie's paula slater has the details. well in the early hours of the song warning sirens sounded throughout the south of israel not far from adam on a we have heard from eyewitnesses that explosions of could shaking houses and some of them were heard as far afield as to saddam and now there is video so creating s.o.p.'s hits on consume reportedly showing the moment that the israeli defense

force systems into stick to a missile coming from syria the israeli army has issued a statement in which it has said that these sirens were activated in a surface to air missile that was fired from sea until a treat to israeli air force chase it was a counterattack following an earlier attack. on the syrian territory and we have heard from the syrian state media confirming that they have it defines systems were activated off to israeli jets were portugese targeted an area in the countryside of damascus also in the early hours of this morning they were soldiers who were injured there was some material damage but most of the israeli missiles were intercepted there is speculation as to whether or not the dimona facility was the target of a he's one of these missiles not israel's official nuclear policy is nuclear ambiguity in other words it is never confirmed that it has nuclear weapons and it

has never denied it it's just left it as an open ended question what's interesting about what happened this morning is that we're hearing from the i.d.f. that they were carrying out strikes over syria and normally the israelis are very quiet when they do such operations however in recent months we have heard these really prime minister benjamin netanyahu boasting about hundreds of israeli strikes being carried out in syria against jihadists militant targets israel is of course concerned and trying to stop the growing iranian presence in its neighboring country across its northern border in syria. supporters of opposition activist alexei novell they have rallied across russia with. police saying more than 10000 turned out in moscow and simply to go alone there are conflicting reports on how many have been detained as our news team called for un sanctions demonstrations after we can report that his health was deteriorating the activist has been on hunger strike in prison for 3 weeks demanding to see his own doctor is

the only as currently serving 2 and a half years for violating parole on 2014 fraud charges which he calls politically motivated. nuclear annihilation isn't something people would like to contemplate unless b. or the u.s. strategic command that is they've casually tweeted that it could well happen the spectrum of conflict today is neither we nor predictable we must account for the possibility of conflict leading to conditions which could very rapidly drive an adversary to consider nuclear use as their we used bird option the u.s. strategic command is responsible for safeguarding america's nuclear arsenal and that tweet came ahead of the agency's annual posture statement informing congress of its work and plans they are to the u.s. is facing quote 2 nuclear capable strategic pair adversaries at the same time in

russia and china but the notion that atomic armageddon is just another option on the table hasn't gone down well on social media what does this mean to this need to be tweeted. least better option it would just be letting the enemy take your chicken nuggets and not new can the world only insane people would consider a nuclear conflict a clear indication that those who have the power positions in this country are not mentally fit to have this responsibility for the pentagon security policy analyst michael maloof told us such nuclear statements are simply unacceptable. it's an unfortunate thing that to treat it so blithely leica. as a as a means of trying to scare off adversaries but it's scaring people and it's not meant to be a it's not a pleasant subject and i think there it's a scare tactic on the part of strategic command to to put something like this and i

think that it's just just better to not try to create unnecessary hysteria at a time when tensions are already high that was the whole idea of arms control was to try and minimize the potential danger of the use of any nuclear weapons whether such whether strategic or tactical and unfortunately we're treating the use of nuclear weapons as as the strategic command thing statement said there in a rather bliley way and it's something that is is should not be treated in such a cavalier dismissive way it's a very serious problem. well that's on 9 am a run down here at mosco could join us again in 30 minutes all the latest headlines .

for common ground. i am max kaiser this is the kaiser report. hey stacey what's happening you know what max is j.p. morgan all the way down entire economy of the u.s. is j.p. morgan all the way down the 1st headline former j.p. morgan banker gets finra bam after bilking his wealthy grandmother a former j.p. morgan financial advisor has been barred from the industry after being accused of

trading his grandmother's assets without her knowledge so federal banned him and he had apparently put $80000000.00 of her pension or her retirement savings into. private equity sort of funds where he was collecting more at a fee of course his his cut she did cade the trade which is means declines knowledge to clients dollars so this is something as a broker you don't want to see on your desk a memo saying your client d. ks the stray so she dk the trade and she went to court and she want to settlement which is very very rare because typically when you sign onto a new account form you go to arbitration which is staffed by a panel of brokers and bankers and very very few dollars are clawed back from this type of scandal.
