the the next thing give investigation reveals that a host of america riches billionaires are avoiding taxes despite getting richer. the u. s. revenue service seems more concerned with finding out who leaked the fund is increasing rails against nato expansion and the mistreatment of russians in ukraine in a comprehensive interview ahead of his summit with joe by the university students who remove an image of queen elizabeth the 2nd from the college is common room citing is linked to the colonial pass. the move that's being condemned by the countries education minister is absurd. we put the issue up for debate. the queen is the figurehead of our country. so i think it's a great, really, really great shape come to them. they haven't being disrespectful. recruiting that

. they made their vote. they took the poetry down. i think that people need to just respect guy. i good morning. thanks for joining us. this is artie. it's been revealed, a host of billionaires on america's rich list has been avoiding taxes, despite the surge and wealth. the expos, a comes from the u. s. independent journalist. this organization which received a link from the revenue service of his body is now lost investigation, though perhaps not the con you might expect, or these exist on the explains. there has been generations of american politicians repeating one mantra about how they should tax the rich. we will demand that the wealthy and large cooperation thought paying their fair share of taxes. it's

time for a well in america, america's tax code is a total dysfunctional mess. it is riddled with loopholes that lead some special interests, including myself in all fairness is going to cost me a fortune this they believe me. i think you should be able to become a billionaire and a millionaire. pay your fair share, repeated over and over again. it's almost like every bit here was taken out of some secret tax spell book and like any spell these failed to conjure a real well result. take heal and musk between 20142018. his wealth balloon by almost $14000000000.00. guess how much he paid in taxes, a whooping 3.27 percent. and if you think that slow, no, that's actually pretty average. that's how much america's 25 fatis cats gave up to

the i r. s. and if you want low look no further than jeff bases, and warren buffett, who's true tax rate barely hovered above 0, i continue to believe that the tax code should be changed substantially. huge than ethic. wealth is not desirable for our society. yeah, that moment when your taxes are so low, even you can't help but feel like a bit of a crock. and all of this was lead to journalists at pro public up and the rest is investigating spoiler alert! not the billionaires. there is an investigation with respect to the allegations that the source of the information in the article came from the internal revenue service. and remember this dude, he founded so concerned about the upper crust of american society, not paying their fair share. well, that was before the league, he is what his office is concerned with. now. any unauthorized disclosure of confidential government information by

a person has access is illegal. and we take this very seriously. and the i r. s. are referring the matter to the office of the inspector general, the treasury inspector general for tax administration, the f b. i and the us attorney's office for the district of columbia, all of whom have independent authority to investigate all the talk about is how the persecution machine is in full bounty hand mode off to whoever leak the figures and completely ignoring the substance. i think there's a few reasons why authorities are focusing on the data release and not the can't tell what explanation is that, you know, they're concerned about the possibility that they're complete tax return. as of auditions will be released next to many members of congress are very rich and another possibilities. they're not saying anything is because there's nothing to say. i mean there's numerous tax advantages for the super royalties. they're intentionally within the tax code. they're perfectly legal and yeah, some of them are known by and used by the political leads as well,

successful business. so i think they're more concerned about where the data came from and what's actually in the day, i think, i think the, the leakers will be punished with religious information out. but they'll probably be put on it pretty quickly. and yes, most of those hundreds of billions in equity. it's not like jeff basis has a scrooge mcduck style dungeon with mountains of dollars. but with an average us household paying sometimes 10 times more than they do in taxes, the system just doesn't look so good. out of line with basic international human law, that's how the russian president is described. they draft ukrainian law on indigenous people. this provides protection and self determination rights to some of ukraine's ethnic groups, though not to others, including millions of russians, and a major interview on russian state, tv, bloody, and food, and explained why the law could pose a threat to them. that i've seen this draft and one of the articles and it saves

that native, cannot be discriminated against the general legal principles, whatever is not legal. what does that mean, nominating, as you can discriminate against that, included the russians is also romanians all from gary and absolutely unacceptable and out of line with basic international the all unit production, every one of the promotions that have a special i think. and the thing is, millions of people living in ukraine identifies russia and according to the sense of conducted during the soviet era. and i don't think much has changed right then. and no more want to be a 2nd citizen that will lead to 100 a 1000, or maybe even millions of people leaving ukraine or changing the nation out in legal documents. it will be a huge blow to russian people in general. and we certainly cannot just ignore that . 2 of the key topics that came up in the wide ranging interview with expansion of nato and russia's relations with ukraine. it had a head of a much anticipated summit between vladimir putin and american president joe biden,

next week. and my colleagues in in nila rodriguez did discuss the interview. one of the chief concerns that glad me has with, with this new draft law, is that it is reminiscent of the practices and methods of nazi germany, which is dividing people based on that genetic makeup, that adversity affording some groups, protection and perhaps prosecuting others. and let me putin here said the what's, what's the kid of mixed heritage with mix pads. what is, what is he to choose as he's got a russian father and the ukranian mother? does he choose russia, who ukrainian, because he'll be afforded protections with one and with the other you will be discriminated again. so the, the, the entire thing is of tremendous concern to russia, especially given the millions of russians live in ukraine, nato expansion mara, to expand on as well. both of them are putting in the integrated vladimir putin says that now the argument for nato expansion, strengthening native,

is russia's aggressive behavior. but like i said, look at the, the decades gone the last 2 decades. they were 2 cycles of nato expansion. wow. russia in the west, wild, russia, and nato were friends while they were friends with each other. and here, let me beautiful to remember cuba. because cuba, when the soviet union station nuclear weapons, there was a huge red line for the united states. russia was eventually remove those nuclear weapons, but somehow, when the united states and they to encroach on russia closer and closer and closer to russia's borders, somehow they don't see that as being of concern to russia. vladimir putin says that it isn't as nature's expansion and his infrastructure getting close to his borders . it's an extremely important issue for the security of all russians and for country it has a practical significance for why is that when pulling the romania became nathan member state, they quickly agreed to american missile defense system to be stationed on the

territory for the launch pads used for those systems can also be used for offensive weapons. then shall russia include moscow within a very short time frame for 15 minutes. imagine if ukraine were to become a nato member. it would then take 7 to 10 minutes miss station to stay near article mostly on to reach moscow. is that the red line for us or not? russia has been attack enough times for nuclear weapons and of odds of an international coalition. encroaching, moving closer and closer to russia to start bringing alarm bells and on the smooth let me know, 2 talks about your grades prospect of joining nato obsession really objectively speaking in last several years here. he remark on what incident several days ago wouldn't barton, and the president spoke by phone. they issued very different press statements at the end. biden said they talked about corruption and guaranteeing your grades,

territory integrity and the ukrainians claim that they also do. but also said that he would, he was in support of offering the ukraine a roadmap to join, to do a naval the americans press the gradient to remove that and said we said nothing of the sort. and that incident caused a lot of jokes in russia and experts, circles in the press. vladimir putin said that he for one wasn't laughing because we don't know what was in that pool. and the behavior of ukraine and nato is such that it suggests that ukraine potentially will, could be offered neighbor membership a native. so let me put and says that those, those are red line for russia that need to infrastructure and perhaps even nuclear weapons moving into ukraine for russia. that is an absolute red lot the case education secretary has slammed the behavior of some oxford university students as simply absurd. and after they took down the portrait of queen elizabeth

the 2nd from the college common room, claiming that they found the defensive. since it represents the country's colonial past, the president of the college in questions as the picture was removed after a votes, which itself was the initiative of students. the state's pretty shape cation institutions typically don't display the queen's portrait. the some cambridge and oxford college is still due. the protest removal comes, as the queen passed amongst 70 years on the throne next year. when we put the issue on the ministers reaction for debate. well, i think he's because he was elected in fantasies and elected member of parliament. i mean, my position is quite entitled i say to that to his comments. i might not agree with his comment with many other ministers, but he's entitled to make them. and i think the public would expect him on a situation like this to come out with such a common i'm, i mean, you're very selective about what they comment on. i think that has to be said as

well, or you just saw the sweet voice johnson speaking about christopher that made comments . you can't just pick and choose what you want to speak about if you want to. if you want to keep everything that people have a white on, they didn't make any idea why this is repeated. they made a disrespectful comment to the queen. what was the distance will come in and the queen is the figurehead of our country. so i think it's a great, really, really great shames, come to this about the queen and also wherever you know, everybody feel that the queen. but for that, it's something that they just don't believe in their colonialism. inherited well, systems lack of memory. talked to say so if they don't want that they haven't being disrespectful to the queen. i think there's a lot of this kind of talk of disrespect and you've got to respect that. that's not a 2nd piece. there was no reason for them to causes fos.

they could just remove portrait, but instead of going public and making this new pretty vile insult to up to the queen. i don't think that there's extreme culture extremism in the, in the universities, but they should be freedom of speech and respect for different views. that's important, there shouldn't be in my, in my humble opinion, censorship, imposed by by stopping some speakers just because they don't like they're not liked with some of their views. as long as they're not extremist views that i would never encourage. they made their boat, they took the poetry down, i think that people need to just respect that. and if it hadn't been blown up in the way it was, there wouldn't be the great thing about it. just comes annotation workers empowers, pushed over rubbish bins into a district rallying against the government civil service reform to putting in the

full story after the break the law goes driven by remove shaped by those in me dares thing we dare to ask me. ah

ah ah sanitation workers in paris of overturned trash containers installed the district mess office during a city wide strike. the process is a furious about new labor reforms that trade union se will reduce annual leave and increase working hours. the district mass denounced the rise is totally

unacceptable. 30 measures were approved by president mac drums cabinet in 2019 that a it's claimed is to cut some 120000 civil service jobs over 3 years. we'll discuss the reasons or rest of the trigger in france, political commentator and elizabeth committee. it's not just essentially resistant to change has to come. it's also the, the sort of during the war between the mayor of paris and he does go on the president. mccormick wants to streamline the finances of the country, both all the cobra crisis curve. it's quite a much more difficult because we spent so much there is restriction. i mean, you have to come to the train message and he is very popular with the popular and he still has a very important support and he's very pro rising a device anyway. i think they all were it all posey,

so when over most but not but it's much more narrow now got old that give him within the margin of error. cool. 52 percent for him associate with hot and considering the size of the sample inches within the multitude of arrows. and yet he has learned new poll is found. the pandemic has battered confidence in the e u. the survey was conducted by the european council. it found citizens are unhappy with the blogs, early response to the pandemic, and with the sluggish vaccination campaign in a number of states, more than half of those surveyed have low confidence in e u. with many respondents saying that disappointment in the national politics is even higher while the block itself faces issues over its members. policy going in line with the you law supremacy as brussels is to take legal steps against germany. this is the last as last year, the country's constitutional court ruby,

you debt purchasing policy could be illegal even though that decision was later reversed to all of our hospital government fund buying or put it much simpler, the buying of, of debt. here in europe, we're talking about trillions of euro worth of it to prop fiscally, we could countries at the expense of low, so you perform better economically. here in germany, they've never been a big fund over it. and now the european commission in brussels is issued a legal rap on the nose to berlin after germany. constitutional court dare to challenge the european central banks. money printing plans. after having conducted a detailed analysis and following an informal dialogue to german forties. the commission is therefore decided today to send a letter form a notice to germany for violation of fundamental principles of the law by federal constitutional court. to get to the bottom of this, we have to go way back to the e. c. be purchasing some 2.6 trillion euro worth of bonds,

and all the securities between 20152018 with the intention of providing stimulus to the economies of the 19 e. u. member states that use the euro. this is where that conflicts arises because the european court of justice in luxembourg describe the bond buying program is legit and legal that was then questioned by a group of german conservatives in euro skeptics. they weren't sure about where and how german taxpayer money was being spent. eventually, the 16 judges of the federal constitutional court said b. c. b plans could go ahead. that's what has shocked some m. p. 's about the e u commission decision to push the matter further and publicly, while others see it is needed. i admit the case is very complicated, but it is fundamentally very, very simple. a central bank buys bonds with money printed by created by here ex

needle. so they enlarge the monetary at space. and ab i, they create great risk for inflation, which not happens the day after, not even the day after tomorrow, but some day because there is a high potential for inflationary tendency of the same as the people who put their money in the bank who have a limited amount of money, they need a compensation for that. for the time being, they don't get any compensation. and if they put a little more of the bank, they have to pay negative interest. prices have been rising for real estate everywhere. the fact is very much reflected in the example of america, italy, italy can place it's her bonds and better condition than the united states is america. there must be something wrong. this is a distortion of competition, which does not pay tribute to the real risks of italian bonds and american bonds. i

think that the main challenge of that ruling is that the european cation commission, which considers itself as the guardian of the treaty, cannot accept the national constitutional courts challenge of the european court of justice for the commission. the problem is, any court from any member state questioning, the primacy of a new law ought to be more accurate the precedent, the doing so would create this could threaten the integrity of union law and could open the way to europe. i look at so you can union is and remains a community based on law. and the last word on the law is always spoken. in luxembourg, it does seem as though the german government side are willing to take then knocks on this one. so they great to good of team you. however, with you commission president ursula on the line set to hand a legal picking off to her former boss,

chancellor angle and merkle. there are some suggesting the commission president stepping out from under claim she may be still somehow beholden to berlin patrol of a r c in the german capital. austrian police say they arrested 81 people as part of a global sting operation led by the us. the f b i 's claiming to court more than 800 criminals will wide bleeding arms and drug dealers by tricking them into using an encrypted app. aside from austere rates, have taken place in more than a dozen countries that included australia with federal police, worked alongside us intelligence. the app called anom was run by the excuse me, by the f b. i. security forces apparently got senior figures in organized crime, to use an promoted and allow the intelligence agency to monitor communication between gangs b. i legal a. tasha and austria held. this thing is a major success. this operation demonstrates how the f, b,

i and our international law enforcement partners can come together to successfully combat transnational organized crime and drug trafficking. activity partnerships are the key to law enforcement. success has no one country or agency can tackle this problem alone. for the operation almost broke down early this year on anonymous blogger posted an article cooling on people to stop using the app over safety concerns than his blog was shut down. the most trailing officials of defended the legality of intercepting those private messages. the country's police commission reschedule says the 1st time a law has been used to intercept telecommunications for miss c. i. a analysts john kitty actually told us the way the authorities disguise public apps is being encrypted and secure. raises serious issues. i think we should all just assume that our communications, even our encrypted communications,

are being monitored pretty much all communications apps can be used by law enforcement or by intelligent services to spy. on average, people in these organizations like an essay and g c, h, q, and cia there, they're working on things that we we can only imagine we can only fantasize about. we have no idea the scope of the technology that they have access to. and so i don't think it's ever safe for the average person. the reason that they say they do it is that it to keep us safe. it's to allow law enforcement to collect information on possible terrorist attacks or criminal activities. but that's not the way the constitution works, all platforms are compromised, and that's why we should always be so careful. in our private communications, moscow course has outlawed organizations found by alex in

a valley. the court ruled the russian opposition figures. political network was extremist. he's been drink ripple's. the russian prosecutors have been highlighting the extremist nature as they are putting it. the organizations led and founded by opposition activists elect saying, navarro me according to the authorities, the so called novalis h queues and also the anti corruption funds that are labeled as foreign agents in this country were regularly behind on law for demonstration rallies and other unsanctioned gatherings. that often lead to unrest and even violence in some cases. so these are the key reasons why the fund is being fully banned in this country. earlier members of the anti corruption font, like seen of all these allies, announced that they were wrapping up the activity of their network in its present form because of the enormous pressure that they were experiencing from the rushing

state. like st and evolving himself is currently serving a 3 year sentence for violating the terms of a suspended sentence. that's something that he received earlier as a result of a fraud case. western governments have long been accusing moscow of being after mister volley and the organizations that he has been in charge of for political reasons. and this led to serious cracks in moscow relations with the you and the west for example. but the russian side maintain, that the legal action against the prominent opposition figure is fully within the wash and legal framework and is only related to the crimes that have been committed by like seen evolving himself and his political network. okay, things he company that brings you rather to date. i'll be back in half an hour. the

ah, is your media a reflection of reality? in a world transformed what will make you feel safe for tyson lation community? are you going the right way, or are you being that somewhere? direct? what is true? what is faith? in the world corrupted, you need to defend the join us in the depths. will remain in the shallows, use the

. i don't know. i mean, there's some steps in there were rescuing the food that they were scabbing or, or where were rescuing resources that are still good. this is best buy march 21st, which is in 2 days. all of these potatoes, holler panels, onions. all of these came from waste around sources. the. this is great for me because i'm always looking for a way to give things away. dr. because the tax laws, you know, definitely do benefit the wealthier people and our society. so that makes sense for them to throw it out right off rather than give it to somebody who could use it, then that person is not going to buy it. ah, well, common le harris makes her 1st foreign trip as vice pres didn't. and let's be kind and say it didn't go so well. she made

a very controversial statement to the people of guatemala and didn't do much better in a sit down interview with nbc lester holt. we'll talk about it with our panel and a judge in california has overturned the states ban on assault weapons, a band that went into effect over 30 years ago. we'll talk to a resident of the golden state who was instrumental in making that decision happen . barrack obama, the former president of united states, is added again attacking conservative media. this time he did it on a very liberal media network, and he used the same interview to push a big lie about donald trump. and to talk about u. f. o 's. i'll show you what he said, and natasha suite has some good news in the battle against alzheimer's disease. the 1st treatment in 2 decades is soon to be available, but it comes with some hesitations will fill you in. i'm steve balls burg in for scotty now use on today's edition of news news use right here on our

t america. ah, i want to be clear to folks in this region who are thinking about making that dangerous track for the united states. mexico border. do not come do not come. hi, vice president comma harrison, guatemala telling citizens they are not to come to the us and in the process, she's angered a lot of democrats, including a oh, see, let's bring in our panel, political commentator, ivan garcia. he does go and joe collins who is a navy vet and it's currently seeking to unseat congresswoman maxine waters in the state of california. all right, let's start with that you joe. this position expressed by harris's and about.
