a blast from the past. america is back back for watson. when did it ever leave whatever it is that it's coming back to from as unclear. at every point along the way, we're going to make it clear that united states is back and democracies of the world are standing together to tackle the toughest challenges and the issues that matter most to our future. well, that's good. suddenly, again, i can't remember them ever leaving, but if you are coming back to things you never left, then why the heck not sign things you've already signed or reverse, like atlantic charter building on the commitments and aspirations settled 8 years ago. the firms are ongoing commitment to sustaining our enduring values and defending them against new and old challenges. so they're defending democracy, defending nato, defending trade, which american britain have done admirably if a tad violently but that's the rule they will now chic to combat cyber threats.
7:03 am
climate change in the pandemic. there's so much to do and what better way to start than with tv jukes. so the prime minister, we are both very i'm not sure i'm going to be sent from that. i'm going to disagree already on the else. perhaps what may be construed as new is that button seems hell bent on returning it's all to the glory days of the cold war . and his youth. i've been clear the united states will respond in a robust and meaningful way the russian government engages and harmful activities. we've already demonstrated that except we've had the same thing in various forms for non century trump said the same things. so what did they mean? what is it that they say, if it isn't russia aids?
7:04 am
yes, china, they called say it out loud. no and ready yet, but it's there between the lines. we will focus on ensuring that market democracies not china or anyone else. right? the 21st century rules around trade and technology, and we will continue to pursue the goal of a europe whole free and at peace. biden wants to resurrect an old monster. the cold war with vos, standing armies with boss military spending a vase blog to crush the competition and the competition. and he's in russia. the competition is china, which america still doesn't have an answer for. the head of the g 7 summit, the chairman of the u. s. joint chiefs of staff singled out china and russia as the biggest global threats. daniel mcadams, who's executive director at the ron poll piece institute, says that just inventing another enemy. well, i wonder if i fallen asleep and waking up when woken up in 1978 or something,
7:05 am
you know it's, it's, it's unbelievable that we need to sign a new atlantic a life. what is the atlantic? we have no idea what the atlantic is. the atlantic has been certainly since the end of the cold war, european countries incapable of developing their own independence, foreign and domestic and economic policy basically blindly following the united states into places like at ghana, stan and syria in libya and miss adventure after misadventure. china is the big enemy of the defense secretary austin said, we have to start acting like china is the and the mean, not just thinking like they're the enemy and this is how it works. this is how the u. s. military industrial complex works. you invented in me words, the global war on terrorism, or the global fight against co, good, or the global fight against china. you invent these bogeyman. and then you spend hundreds and hundreds of billions and trillions of dollars that go into the pockets a well connected companies. well connected, think tanks in the washington beltway,

and that's what keeps the machine going with the machine is going to end. because the american economy is about to collapse, its teetering on the edge of collapse. on the eve of the summit, u. k. police communities have accused the government of the trail, as it hasn't prioritized the force for vaccines around $5000.00 unvaccinated officers are expected to be present at the g 7. summit. one police chief wiring, they might become super spreaders. while they're still hasn't stopped the u. k. prime minister from choosing this moment to praise the force for its work during the pandemic. i bet the policing restrictions in that way was not something you ever dreamt you will be doing. but you did it because you knew it was how we were going to protect the n h. s. and save lives for something that speaking out the police federation, annual conference, aptly named policing on the pressure of those within the 4th. a claim that he and home secretary principal sell them on the front line during
7:07 am
a pandemic. totally unprotected and small words became lame actions on the result is up, my colleagues do feel a sense, a deep sense of betrayal. just this week we have thousands of colleagues from all over the country, coming together to place the g 7 summit to coble police officers from those very communities where the indian variance of the virus is thriving. we have young police officers who by age alone, will not have been vaccinated. how can not be ranked $6500.00 offices from every police force in the country? a part of the g 7 ring the still dealing with diplomat small over the world. meaning the summit could become a hot bed of coated with offices acting as potential super spreaders. certainly an issue that needs to be considered whether or not there's any risk of a super spread. talked event occurring around the g 7 summit. there are people from all over the world. they include people from countries where the rights of covey to
7:08 am
very different from allison, with various different versions of a virus causing the problems. last year that were 89 police officer, dec involving cove it highlighting why police representative are so eager for their members to get their jobs if they're going to continue to put themselves at risk front line officers on the cell. so things tend to be at the young end of the scale, certainly enlarge numbers, and therefore they will not yet have reached the point where they will all be vaccinated with the g 7 operation. now on the way there are fears and some courses that the damage has already been done and it leaves government officials hoping that the summit doesn't result in a surgeon code the cases and particularly amongst those they've off protecting some of the world's most powerful people. east ali, off the u. k. london. the lack of police vaccinations is not the only pandemic related criticism being laid at the british governments door. a u. k. health

secretary about hancock has been branded a liar trying to rewrite history. it's after he denied nationwide shortages of personal protective equipment, while speaking before a parliamentary inquiry into the coven crisis. i don't deny it all the way which challenges in individual areas. there was never a national shortage, a p p because of the action that we took. that hancock was scrutinized over the government's handling of the 1st stages of the pandemic. the sounds accused or failing to ensure a sufficient stockpiles of p. p e at hospitals ultimately endangering the lives of n h. i saw some health workers where even photographs making their own gowns out of been bags. the government is also accused of chaotic. p. p. e procurements. the cost billions extra to the state budget. however, the authorities defend corporate policies. the chairperson of the case doctor's association told us that now far greater distrust of the n h s. i think it's very
7:10 am
hard for us to have trust in my call is in the same breath need also denies the fact that they will problems with getting to the front. in other words, p. p was adequate. that actually doesn't seem to have been responsible for many at the death and and the fact that he also says that he values and just off and he recognizes they've made now in many cases the ultimate sacrifice. but he's part of the government, which is recommended to one's not moving to one percent pay voice and in the u. k. government's coven policies. i've repeatedly drawn criticism from the labor party. one of his members told us the health minister was just trying to mask failures during the pandemic. whether it's inaction or incompetent to the government policy throughout this and emmett because directly contributed to tens of thousands of deaths, one of the worst death tolls in the world. and in the face of all this might,
7:11 am
hancock is, is or out there in front of that committee, acting like a schoolboy whose dog has eaten his homework and he's blaming scientific, blaming the public. anything but take responsibility for, for, for this himself. he's saying of p p, he's saying that the say no evidence that the lack of p p 4 for an extra stuff directly contradicts his death. it was coming out with advice and information. it would saying that there was no evidence that the mock wearing prevented covered cases. you have to ask you. so why would they coming out saying things that were so patiently wrong at the time? it's because they didn't have the p. p for the public brought a news here on our tea, angry parents in new york of now lashed out at elite schools in the city for allegedly indoctrinating that children with woke values instead of teaching them how to think ortiz kellum often takes. it looks like some parents are fed up with critical race theory being taught in school. mobile billboards have been set up
7:12 am
outside of new york city. private schools, where parents are calling out the woke curriculum, taught on their money. the truck sign says, teach how to think. not what to think. woke school speak out and diversity not indoctrination. this campaign was organized by a group of parents who say they are concerned about what their children are being taught. in recent years, a new orthodoxy has emerged to tell us cause dividing our communities based and immutable characteristics such as race, ethnicity, gender, and sexual orientation. as a result of the core tennis of high quality education, unite and all children and families through love and appreciation for learning and community spirit have gone by the wayside. schools should unite us not divide us. many of these parents say they are not opposed to an anti racist or pro diversity curriculum, but they say critical race theory is going a bit too far and causing more problems than it solves. we are a group of concerned parents who believe there is
7:13 am
a better way to promote diversity and include a teacher at lead and independent schools in new york city without sacrificing quality education for all students. to save our schools, administrators must ensure academic rigor and intellectual integrity requirements of any core curriculum. while respect and parents, as the primary moral educators of the children, parents aren't the only ones. there's an english teacher in new jersey at a private school who quit her job saying that critical race theory is racist. i'm resigning from a job that i love over the past few years, the school has embraced in ideology that is damaging to our students, intellectual and emotional growth and ideology that require students to see themselves not as individuals, but as representatives of either an oppressor or oppressed group and by professional opinion as an educator, the school is failing to encourage healthy habits of mind, essential for growth, a growing number of parents and teachers objects to the teaching of critical race
7:14 am
theory in school. this is yet another conflict and a time of already deep divisions in the united states of america. well, how will this all ultimately be resolved? well, it looks like it will be up to our children to settle this. i actually think that critical race theory would be allowed in our schools. if you want to teach children, you teach him at home and not in the school. well, no need for that is what is doing is teaching kids how to have them felt what cultural is out of place that has no place in fact at all. and in order to change we got about lynn. i was school, so from our teachers teach this particular correctly yes. go back to the base keisha standards that we had before. and i was we want to change the situation. we must fight hard and we must do it from our home. that was our church to the way that we think we need to do it. so at this particular point it's we have got to
7:15 am
pull back and push back car. i think it was still to come here on the program. the 2020 european football championship kicking off today. what had one of the great hoses from st. petersburg to venice of the nor do we check it out. the preparations back in just a moment. the i join me every thursday on the alex summon, show and i'll be speaking to guess in the world, the politics sport, business. i'm show business. i'll see you then me driven by
7:16 am
a dreamer shaped by those in me dares thing. we dare to ask in safety harbor and some are solutions every year. we try to dig into the solutions and we've got a special guest today. jim consular of consular dot com the going to be to join us on this friday. a special police unit has been disbanded in the german city of frankfort. apparently as members are suspected of having shared far right content in
7:17 am
a group chat is peter oliver lifts up the story. this involves 17 actual front lines and foreigner and current front line members of the special task force or s k in front. for now, that's pretty much the equivalent of a swat team in the united states or the special firearms command in the united kingdom. it also involved 3 senior offices who apparently knew what was going on and didn't act what it's understood is that this group charts were sharing fall right extremist messaging as well as nazi symbols. now it's prompted the interior minister of the state of hair, sir, where frankfort lies to despond. the unit saying that it needed to be over hold completely the unacceptable misconduct of several employees, as well as the turning away of immediate superiors and the special task force of frankfort made its complete dissolution necessary. nothing that can remain as it was, even those who look the other way and thus failed to fulfil their direct,
7:18 am
superior ro must expect disciplinary consequences. this isn't the 1st time that we've seen fall right extremist activity. and i the police or the military here in germany, there's been a number of incidents over the last couple of years. i the i route around to restructuring under way of special tactical police units in have. both they, when they all restructured, will be firmly under the microscope as well as will police forces and the military across germany. after these claims these allegations of fall right extremism in the
7:19 am
ranks. russia is media and communications watchdog has published a report detailing how social media giants are violating the law. it follows a large scale inspection by the authority of the sky hotel and are joining me in the studio with more details on this. so it's ask you is, i understand that the watchdog is not happy, but what that is, inspection naturally bring to light. what we know that the internet is a pace. it's really hard to control, but fears are growing that it's become out of control recently lacking sufficient regulation. and because of that, russia's media watchdog launch to review that looked into what certain especially social media platforms are or are not, as it turns out, doing to make the internet a safe place. now course in the past we've seen how often harmful content lingers on line unchecked. pay just how the live stream of the christ church massacre circulated on facebook for hours afterwards. but the statistics from this report
7:20 am
really expose how well negligent these platforms have been. you know, we're talking about tow pornography pro drug pro suicide content terrace material and i'm talking thousands and thousands of incidence. there is so much, but just as an example for 6 years, twitter kept up $6000.00 posts of that kind, seemingly taking no regulatory steps and even when it did, it moved at a glacial pace. so facebook for example, on average to $105.00 days to remove these kinds of posts. in the meantime, you of course have under age vulnerable people exposed to all of this. back in march actually rushes media watchdog warn twitter of a total ban unless it got this illegal content under control. and as a warning step, it actually slowed the site traffic which ultimately pushed it to remove a lot of the not all of the content after hundreds of post up simply it's imposed
7:21 am
financial penalties, including for example, 23000000 rouble find for twitter, 43000000 the facebook so the conclusion here that's coming out is that only by punishing these platforms by threatening them with, with bonds and with financial loss is action taken, which is a terrifying fort. why on these platforms themselves incentivized to tackle illegal and harmful content. you know, the, the online johns maybe violating the law by keeping certain content up. but as i understand, the russian authorities are also riled by what's been taken down on day. well, exactly. so on the one hand, we've got twitter and co dragging their feet when it comes to st. child pornography . but the report claims that on the other hand, when it comes to sensory content of especially russian media and of course r t, they are quick and happy to press dot delete button 29 times. for example, by google and youtube alone. i can't count how many times i've talked about this,
7:22 am
whether it's about youtube bonding and taking down, assist channel onto arbuckle, even my own material. you're 2 months ago to the live stream dedicated to 60 years . since the fast pass and fluid space, i spoke to cosmo about life on the international space station. it was fun, it was homeless and it was bond with no reason, given that the review really does lay by how problematic these platforms are. all they, you know, are they knowingly not protecting people? are they simply overwhelmed by the extent of harmful content? and why be turning a blind eye to often an eagle content that causes emotional and physical often fake to home. but then arbitrarily censoring content simply contributes to diversity of voices. and it's clear that russia feels that it can only see a change if it forces a change. because these platforms at this stage clearly don't feel any sense of responsibility before they uses jessica taylor,
7:23 am
thank you. so the euro 2020 for both of them. and finally, getting underway today, rushes among the host countries with 7 games being held in its northern capitalism . petersburg, a correspondent alexia chef ski reports from the city. euro 2020 is a football tournament, stretching across the 4 corners of the continent and rushes northern capital st. petersburg has an extended role to play while other nations have struggled to get funds back into the grounds. due to over 19 russia host at 50 percent of stadiums for the majority of its domestic season and for the euro 2020 st. petersburg is ready to make some noise. i there is a serious football vibe to the so called venice of the north. it is the home to venice, champions of russia for the last 3 seasons. what place could be better as one of the whole cities for the euros,
7:24 am
even more fans will be impressed with what's available in the city. the opportunities in san pittsburgh and the rich culture is a truly wonderful place with endless possibilities. especially in summer coach and entertainment. yes. especially in summer, very impressive. 2018 world cup and russia managed to sway officials so much that this stadium here in saint petersburg will also host the way for champions league final next year. and as other cities across the continent failed to meet the anti coby 19 criteria. this city stepped right up, only wembley in london will host more euro 2020 fixtures than this stadium here in st. petersburg. i know that you a 5 doing everything possible to ensure that the european championship is a success particular attention has been paid to the media and accreditation for journalists, it's extremely difficult to organize such a large scale international event given the situation in the world today. i can
7:25 am
tell you that i have not come across such a constructive attitude from all involved parties for a long time. we cannot hide from the fact that life and sport i a very different world. now, you are 2022 taking place in 20. 21 is the perfect reminder of how the pandemic has impacted on europe. but this tournament will be the litmus test for you a far too. and what's been a listless yet half for football. russia kept it stadiums open to a large percentage of fans throughout the season. and this was a rather unpopular decision at 1st, but gradually turned into pride because we talking about real fancy and not cardboard cutouts or pre recorded fake noise. now you, a phone is granted st. petersburg stadium, a 50 percent capacity quarter for the 7 games of euro 2020. and we're talking about 30000 live fans at this very ground. an agreement is also in place to allow
7:26 am
traveling funds from abroad without any visa requirements if they have a ticket, a fan id and a negative p c r test. so russia is waiting for you with open restaurants, boss and arms. just remember to keep the strict anti corbet measures, but that is the price. many fans are more than willing to pay. it's an amazing opportunity that we got on expectedly because some european countries could not host matches. and we always can, they can't, we can, are you happy with an organization? it's great when we were the world cup, things were slower. here, everything is better. i wish every one felt the same way though. denmark opened it stadiums to local fans, but not allowing any russian fans inside. and russia is to play denmark in copenhagen and even before a ball has been kick. politics is already making headlines. first ukraine teams kit
7:27 am
stitched with political message is then as thereby johnny officials blocking accreditation for our top common sites in russia because the fuse armenian roots football just wants to pass around all this mess for rest assured when the tournament kicks off from one care. here and in the other 10 host cities, this is the moment many have been waiting for, and hopefully a turning point for sports and politics like yourself to be reporting from st. petersburg. and while the primary focus now is on the euro's cutoff is getting ready to host the 2022 football world cup of tea is constantino rush off into the country to see how the preparations are going. you can watch a special report in full data today here on a channel. for now, our quick teaser the one of the persian gulf, the wealthiest country, it has spend billions of dollars on state of the art stadiums.
7:28 am
well look at this stadium is really taking shape. you can see the bowl and most of the stands now when we were here a little bit over a year ago, at the same construction site, it was just the foundation in a few metal structures. so it seems that time why this idea to use shipping containers as building blocks has definitely paid off. i mean, they're easy to assemble and easy to dismantle, just like playing with lego. for the 1st time in a world cup hay street, the stadium will be billed from shipping containers and was more, it will be completely dismantled after the tournaments. do stay with people. what about coverage of the euro's 20? 20 coming here. push to come here and of course online at r t dot com. in the meantime,
7:29 am
7:30 am
for the losers? what are the challenges and what are the opportunities? hey folks, next up on dennis miller plus one, the iconic ann margaret, my boyhood crush. she's got a new film i called queen bees. ellen burst and it looks like, well, it's like mean girls in an old folk song, but i will put it there and we'll extract the late more after the break with then margaret. dennis miller plus $1.00 pay folks welcome to dennis miller plus one. what a thrill for me. my main boy hood crush. the great and margaret with us, i think she has done more to popularize the hyphen than anybody in the history of this plan. a great actress icon again when i say con, again, throw that around. sometimes they hear people pronounce, i conic. and i go,
