there's going to be a 60 minute documentary about youth coaches in sports like gymnastics swimming. is that documentary? see it on our team. the, the group of 7 leaders meet for the 1st time since this starts of the pounds demik with vaccines and climate change high on the agenda. but there's also a focus on russia and china. my colleagues do feel a sense of deep se simply trial. we have young police officers who by age alone will not be vaccinated. how can not be once you k police chiefs, raise the alarm over a lot of vaccinations for the for so made fears. the $5000.00 on job, the officers at the g. 7 summit could become coven super spreaders. while in new york, parents declare

a war on walk in doctrine nation schools putting up billboards the mother thing their children instead be taught to think for themselves by diversity. ah, just a few moments into a brand new day here in moscow, underneath the weekend, saturday, june, the 12th this, our top story on our t. the 1st g 7 in person summit. since the start of the pandemic house kicked off in south west and it also marks jew biden's 1st overseas trip during his presidency know ahead of the summits which has wrapped up now and day one biden met with the host u. k prime minister bars johnson. they signed a new atlantic charger based on the 1941 agreement that outlined the 2 countries goals after world war 2. the priority not according to the document is cooperation

from the g 7 event itself, the main talking point. so the panoramic trade climate change plus china and russian broadcast the of examines why much above agenda is a blast from the past in 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 will, coming back to things you never left then why the heck not some things you've already signed or revitalized atlanta charter building on the commitments and aspirations that are 80 years ago. a 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. climate change in the pandemic. there's so much to do. and what better way to start than with jeezy jukes. so the prime minister we have so the both very i'm not sure i'm going to be sent from that. i'm going to disagree already on the else babs. what may be construed as new is that button seems hell bent on returning a call 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. and 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? yes, china, they can't say it out loud. no one's 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 that piece biden wants to resurrect an old monster. the cold war with vos, standing armies with vase 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. murat gas,

the full ahead of the g 7, some of the chairman of the u. s. joint chiefs of staff, single died, china and russia, the biggest global threats. but doug mc albums, who's the executive director of the ron paul piece institute, said they are just inventing another enemy. but i wonder if i fallen asleep and waking up when woken up in 1978 or something, you know it's, it's, it's unbelievable that we need to sign a new atlantic lines. 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 ghana, stan, and syria and libya and misadventure after misadventure. china is the big enemy of the defense secretary austin said we have to start acting like china is the, and i 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 of 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 day one of the summit and cornwall leaders pledge to donate hundreds of millions of vaccine joseph to per countries. but in the host nation itself, police have warned of a more immediate problem that 5000 of the officers of the event haven't been inoculated about the house and stop the u. k. prime minister from praising 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 are going to protect the n h. s. and save lives for something

that speaking out the police federation, annual conference abilene named policing on the pressure of those within the, for the claim that he and home secretary for yourself. but the amount of the front line during a pandemic totally unprotected, the government, small words became lame actions. and the result is, 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 replace the g 7. so me to call more 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 rings of steel and dealing with diplomat small over the world. meaning the summit could become a hot bed of covey, 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. so there are people from all over the world. they include people from countries where the rights of covey to a very different from allison, with various different versions of a virus causing the problems last year that were 89 police officer deck involving cove it. hi, why police representative 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 so. so things tend to be the younger end of the scale. certainly enlarge numbers and therefore they will not yet have reached the point where they will 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 saw protecting some

of the world's most powerful people easily off the u. k. london. another story the bring you today. the father and brother of julian, a son shall travel from australia to the u. s. for a month long tour. they're calling on the white house to stop pounding the wiki leaks co founder. busy just currently in jail in the u. k. and is wanted stateside on espionage charges. his family, many supporters are urging the entire case be dropped for 6 months now passed since since the refusal of bale. and we still don't know when they will be an appeal. so what, what we're seeing is just, it's just another instance of this abuse of process that julian has been suffering under for you know, going on 12 years now. there is a, there is an opportunity now for, for the burden administration. and mary,

garland just just to discontinue and drop this case leak can stop was that is a quality in julian and we can lakes and kristen hanson as her special, you know, they had the late that they continued risks of himself to attempt to give a name to the dan, earlier this year, a british court rejected the u. s. extradition request for julian, the songs due to concerns about his mental health, while at the same time maintaining that washington has a solid case against. and america is still insisting he should be handed over for releasing thousands of classified files. it's been almost a decade now since it's on july 1st arrested in london. he later skip built before spending a total of 7 years, hold up inside an embassy in the british capital. he's been in belmont prison for the past 2 years as well. and if he sent to the u. s, he could face up to 175 years in prison. earlier i spoke to roger waters funding,

member of rock on pink floyd, and long time a sound supporter. he is being held up as an example to people who might young people who might decide to make a career in journalism. and who might decide that the public has a right to know by the, by the good offices of the, for the state or the journal or the, you know, the newspapers, who we absolutely desperately need to be free of the precious autocratic government . to give us the information we need to be concerned citizen. so, but they don't, they, they pass the bay. does this include joe biden, and bring can bye, certainly hope. not because he absolutely should step out tomorrow and say wherever you are in the united states, john and gabriel shepard and we hear it is, here's the piece of paper we are dropping all the charges against julian assert,

because we know for sure that he could, he committed no crime. all he did was report the news. that's it. and if that's a crime man, you should lock up. they had the tauriel boards of the new york times and everybody else particular, i bet, particularly the publish who published the same stories that wiki leaks published, particularly the, you know, the rock rogues and, and dramatic most dramatically of all the classroom out a video, you know, i should be locked up. i showed that video and every single performance of the war when i did a were to between the years of 2010 and 2013. no, he is being held up as an example. keep your mouth shot or this will happen to you . we will kill you because that's what they're trying to do. that trying to kill

julian as such because he spoke the truth and it's disgusting. obviously angry parents in new york have lashed our lead schools in the city for allegedly indoctrinating their children with walk vall use instead of teaching them how to think picking up the story from the city or to kill them open. it looks like some parents are fed up with critical race theory being taught in school. mobile billboards have been set up 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 schools, dividing our communities based on 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 group of concerned parents who believe there is 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 yet 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 embrace and 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 of mind, essential for growth, a growing number of parents and teachers objects to the teaching of critical race 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 to teach children 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

control is out of place has no place in fact at all. and in order to change, we got this. when i was with teachers teach this particular correctly go back to the base keisha banners 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, our church to the way that we think we need to do it. and so at this particular point, we have got to pull back and push back car. so ahead on our tea, a police unit in germany is disbanded for sharing far right extreme with messages in group chance. we bricked on that story and more besides view, after the shortest break, the

join me every thursday on the alex simon show. and i'll be speaking to guests in the world, the politics, sport, business and show business. i'll see you then. me. hello, driven by a dreamer shaped by those in me dares think we dare to ask sunday, i said there were some are solutions every year. we try to dig into the solutions

and we've got a special guest today, jim counselor of counsellor dot com the it the minutes into the program. welcome back to the governor of texas has resurrected a promise from the trumpet euro. greg, i'd say he's going to build a wall on the border with mexico due to the government's failure to tackle a migrant influx. the border crisis is no laughing matter. this is something that also is not a tourism site for members of congress to make an annual pilgrimage to see that board and then go back and do absolutely nothing at the federal government level to solve their cry. the governor went on to say, work on a board, a wall will start next week, non migrants who trespass on private property will be arrested earlier this month.

mr. albert issued a disaster declaration along the southern frontier. he accused the by the ministration of encouraging migrants saying the route was being used by human traffickers and gangs dots after migration had a 20 year high. in may alone, us border patrol caught more than 180000 people illegally crossing the border. politics podcast. host justin robert young told us that the situation is of a tipping point. we are one big, ugly moment away from what's happening on the border being a much larger problem for them. one dead child, one group of people that die from, from heat stroke and a photographer, or videographer where somebody, they're getting the kind of pictures and videos that tend to capture imagination if that's the case. and it can be tied to the fact that the by the ministration has

been not great on this, then not only can it be damaging to them, but specifically with the mid terms coming up next year. it can force conversation to be more on the border, which is not where the by the administration or anybody in congress on the democratic side wanted a special police unit tells been disbanded in the german city of frankfort. its members are suspected of having shared far right content in a group chat. your sir, your correspondent, peter oliver. this involves 17 actual front lines and foreigner and current front line members of the special task force or s k in frankfurt. 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 chart was 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, 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, that's been a number of incidents over the last couple of years. i the

ah, this a route run to restructuring under way of special tactical police unit in has 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 ranks. we also heard from benjamin andrew who represents a police union in berlin. he believes officers are being unfairly targeted and it is putting huge pressure on the nurses mission will just us feel police in some german states have received reports right. when extremist ideas is something that's happening in society and when not isolated from it, there are $26000.00 employees and the berlin police and include supporters of right

wing extremists. ideas is like alcoholism or drug addiction police human beings just like everyone else is. the main thing is how we deal with it. how we recognize such people what steps fuel 30 to taking. i think it's obvious that they should be no extremist ideology, no matter what kind it has no place in the police force. all this, of course, is already affecting people, just like these claims that we are all far right, extremis. unfortunately, there is a tendency in the public to generalize. if one person is far right, then immediately all 26000 employees. this of course takes a toll on police officers. my colleagues do a great job and they sometimes work for 60 or 70 hours a week. they encounter incredible stress, and yet they carry out their gcs professionally. and despite this, the next day, they criticize by politicians. it's an attitude on the political level that makes people in lauren forestman want to find other jobs. and once it's frances defense

minister said on friday, the french troops of kills, and molly journalists linked to the kidnapping and dense of 2 journalists back in 2013. the news comes just after president micron, the nice, the end of its bar con, anti terror operation. this a hell region of west africa, french forces are expected to remain in the area as part of a broader international contingent. the present you have don't get the continued presence of french operations cannot be a substitute for the return of the state and state services. political stability and sovereign decisions, we cannot keep secure in areas that then fall back into instability because the state decides not to take responsibility, it's impossible and never ending task. the french leaders say that the number of basses will be reduced. both the several 100 special forces troops will stay in the region to work along the other european african army. details of the withdrawal are

expected to be finalized by the end of the month. of france currently has troops stationed in 5 countries of africa region. molly bertino fossil shodmurray, tenure and niger, the intervention was launched in mali, back in 2013 before it was expanded under operation bar. come to other countries in the region. more than 5000 french troops were involved in the operation with 50, killed in the past 8 years. well, i'm happy to welcome onto the program to discuss the withdraw african the 1st unless lawrence k free and welcome to you. what do you make lawrence of a manual mccrendon linesman, and the timing of it? keep in mind that as you, as your announcer mentioned, this force has been around since i think 2014 about over 5000 deployed on the french. it has not been really terribly successful. you have the spread of violent

extreme it in, in northern molly the sore recently in bertino, facile of 100 people killed that believe in one day. we see activity in the air. therefore, this approach by the french has not really worked out well. the other factors to consider, i think, was unspoken. but we, for alluded to by president mccomb was the reason that we organization and which that went on in molly, where the transitional government, when i went to reorganization and to members where we moved. this is also obviously got into the french, but they have not been effective. and of course, the history of france. it's wrong. the francophone countries about 14 nations in africa tied to the french financial system with the, with their currency. and the french took over the end of the 19th century,

good portion of west africa, with a lot of resentment and anger about the way the french have operated in the portions of west africa. and the micron does not may present macros that may clear what the future is. he talked a very vaguely about special forces in the future, very vaguely about some international 4th. this is not a real serious proposal. this is not a serious solution to the crisis in the how, which is very deadly and very dangerous and has record is that i have not been incorrect by the french government. how do you think paris in private will view this operation which lasted for years? i'm sorry, how do you question, how do you think part is going to view this operation in privately which had lasted for years? do you think they'll view it as a success? i don't see how anyone can view this as a success that a french play very nasty will in many of these got all kinds of accusations,

for example, in the coo and chide, had a very strong indications that that this was a power coo and that the french may have looked the other way, the french of been accused of all kinds of activities, and they're not well liked in the area. but if you go back to the history of this to how this area remains desolate, there's no development desert area becoming more desert area. further north, you go to lack of a commitment by the french, by the united states, by europe, to develop this area to have the infrastructure, water, electricity, food production. these are the root cause. a violent extreme is easily recruiting ground. the desperation of the people in these areas, highly fertile recruiting ground for the terrorist, for ice, it break you, i am. and if with none of it, none of this is been cited french and the french of used it moved to power. and

there were 5000 forces of this operation. try to control the area and maybe even control some of the countries. and that's where it is a lot of resentment against the french. and they may be using the latest activity mom. he had an excuse to pull out, but frankly, i'm not sure how much good they've done. certainly they haven't stopped the spread of violent extreme them. and they refused to develop the underlying issues of economic development. if you have poor people who don't know how to live in, eat the next day, those people are going to be easily manipulated, easily recruited. and the west has had a complete, blind eye and 10 year on the question of economic development. especially the french lawrence, we appreciate your time. thank you very much for your thoughts. lawrence. k. freeman, african 1st. unless live on the rti. thank you very much. a lot where we leave the newsroom up for now, but don't go too far. more great programs get going after the shortest breaks

ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah with
