5:01 pm
while harris bios and kate critics by finally visiting in florida, 3 months into her vice president. she takes this awful most a 1000 kilometers from the api center with the migrant crisis. ah, just midnight moscow, you're watching arthur international. the british house, x ray, matt hancock has resigned for breaching his own social distancing guidance by kissing an aide. he was having an affair with the minister has been under growing pressure after the sun newspaper published for each of him in a passionate embrace with his closest associate, both married with 3 children. in his resignation. letter, mister hancock gave the following apology. i'm writing to resign a secretary states, the health and social camp. we've worked so hard as a country to fight the pandemic. the last thing i would want is for my private life
5:02 pm
to distract attention from the single minded focus that is leading us out of this crisis. i want to reiterate my apology for breaking the guidance and apologize to my family and loved ones for putting them through this while we thought coming up. but now it's official, be british health, sex. she's not. hancock has resigned. she will be replaced by former chancellor of the exchequer. that's said she'd jobs it. now. hancock's reference in his resignation letter to his private life, a bit to the submit them. it is the scandal that housing gulf the british press over the past 2 days, we are talking about that lead cctv footage obtained exclusively by bridge his paper the sun which showed the 42 year old m p kissing an 8th in his office. nope. up surprising me. the issue here is not a moral one. they are both married, not to each other. they have the own families, but rather about social distance thing. so very 2021 because those images were
5:03 pm
taken a week before the rules about close contact into between separate households which they why, what ease supposed to be irony of the official government faith of social distance in guidelines being caught in this kind of situation was not last are many and such needs social media, how to field a in fairness to met hancock, the guidelines clearly sat, people should observe to meet her social distance. and where is it possible clear? it's not possible to kiss a mistress at work when both people are 2 meters apart. quick thinking suffolk and p saves a life with mouth to mouth resuscitation. someone said med hankle cases like the seems and now i can't see it. but you know, on a more serious note, the health secretary who has been leading the charge for people to stay at home, who's told them they can go and hug that grandparents visit that parents, go to the hospital to see the own children to be born. go to weddings, attend funerals, being caught,
5:04 pm
so flagrantly disobeying the rules that he said. it's not a good look. it has to be said. you mentioned that we got some reaction from the british public on social media, but overall what's been so the reaction, what is the public mood in the u. k. over the scandal, while one of the footage fast office prime minister bars johnson, he stood by his health chief. he said look, he's apologize for me. it's case closed. but then the cool for hancock's resignation from the people from the political opposition even from some within his own party, were louder and louder. so it became pretty clear that this was not a tool case closed. in my view, people in high public office and great positions of responsibility should act with the appropriate morals and ethics that come with the role. mat hancock on a number of measures has fallen short of that. i think that his position is untenable. for that reason, the sooner he does the honorable thing and announces his resignation, the better, because otherwise it is not going to go away. this is going to run and run. he set
5:05 pm
the rules, he admits he broke them. he has to go. if you want to resign, the prime minister should sack him. so here we are a resignation letter in hand. the prime minister has now accepted it, but really looking at the broader picture might hancock breaking the very rules that he himself said? it's part of why the pattern that we've seen time and time again among politicians to u. k. and state side, you know, in the morning they go out and they say to people, when mall stay at home, don't touch anyone else. and then in the evening that snapped dining out moss cliffs with their friends. and then of course they put up their hands and the thing i'm so sorry i should've known better. of course, until now we'd never seen actually from a health secretary pass. you really should be leading by example. now we have so a tough yes, ma hancock. no doubt professional course. he's been under huge pressure if he's tries to guide britson to this once in a lifetime health crisis cove,
5:06 pm

5:07 pm
grades. this great site existed this on my grave. it was policies in the 1800s, early 19 hundreds of this, this, this country. well, the grayson find, come weeks after the remains of $215.00 children were found at another residential school in british columbia. a grim reminder for years of discrimination and switch . indigenous community suffered in canada bank, then religious authorities took those children from their families to those institutions with the aim of integrating them into society. 2 8 in. 8 8 the. 8 8 8 day you will see it was that it wasn't you today. it was going to be the target, the victim. you know, you weren't going to have to suffer anything humiliation. you learn not to cry anymore. you just get harder. and yet you learn to shut down.
5:08 pm

5:09 pm
a shameful reminder of systemic racism and encouraged the country to learn from past mistakes. first nation chief again says that presidential schools wanted to wipe out indigenous culture. and heritage. this is genocide. my, my ancestors had a beautiful way of life here. we accepted and agreed to a treaty relationship with the crown. we did not ask for all of this to happen for 5 generation residential school had one goal. and that was to brainwash my people to stop in our life of how we had it for many generations to accept a life that we didn't know based on the canadian way at one time. and so now today as a leader where the colonizing and where strengthening our self and genocide is where you try to eliminate and mentally we were,
5:10 pm
they tried to eliminate us. and today we are still resilience. we're still here, and we are getting stronger one day at a time. 3 months into her vice presidency, kamala harris says finally visited the us mexican border. however, it is a trip critic said, was wrong. the jew having failed to visit the scene, despite record numbers of migrants and the publicity disaster, almost as soon as her administration came to office. and when she arrived, she did face plenty of uncomfortable questions. right now was the right time to make your 1st board was not my purchase order. back in march, i was going to come to the board and with this is not a new plan will make us also criticize harris, the where she chose to go visiting. el paso, instead of the rio grande valley, which is considered to be the real heart of the migrant crisis. the 2 spots are almost 2000 kilometers apart. well, last month,
5:11 pm
more than $100.00. 80000 people tried to legally cross that part of the border alone, and the vice president has long faced questions about why she was refusing to travel to the scene of the crisis. do you have any plans to visit the board? at some point? we are going to the board or if you haven't been to the border and i haven't been to europe a little podcast host just in robot young says harris knows that this is a situation she couldn't win if you are common le harris. and you have your entire career ahead of you. you are, you are in a tremendously advantageous position, being the vice president of the united states. but obviously you have the presidency in your site. the last thing you want to do is put major damages on your record. why didn't she go down before? because she doesn't want to be dyed to this issue any more than she has to be. why
5:12 pm
did you go down this week? because at a certain point, she felt that it was worth d banging her critics for saying that she never went to the border. so she did the bare minimum in doing it. they hope that that take some of the air out of the criticism, which obviously they feel is resonating because if they thought it was just a republican talking point, she wouldn't have gone. common harris specifically would love to happen is for people to be talking about literally anything else other than the border because she does not want to get caught, you know, being any more of the cover girl of an unwinnable issue that she has watching. i see still to come to be yet dominican republic. stephanie foreign minister came to the studio earlier today for a chassis. the caribbean nation looks to buy rushes, v faxing. we'll have the details in what he said in a couple of things. the

5:16 pm
american population are again in the backseat. and we need to work as a collective ideas. you know, there are some that accused the likes of russia and china who are producing several vaccines of using it to further themselves on the international stage. and they've got a political move under the guise of helping people with a vaccine. how do you see it? well, we are not focusing in these job political plays and what we understand that the countries are in these throw in these kind of gains in the job political issues about the we respect the decision of the governments. what we are focusing on in get that the number of back to the we needed. now you've got a very wide ranging economy, but as you pointed out, tourism is one of the major areas. and also russians were known to flock to the dominican republic. they really liked a holiday there. how long do you think it'll be before the numbers can get back to pre coven level? we are $2000000.00 population in the major and probably on we are receiving
5:17 pm
$7000000.00 per year. truth stories. and now what is the, what is the main things that the president is doing? try to offer a, say this, the nation in order to, to be the same way that the, that the, like promote a safe, safe destination. the coby crisis. we have a very good outcomes in the national vaccination process. for example, 100 percent of the people who are working in the prison said have already built both doses of the boxing. if you want to be bar of the tourism center in need to have both vaccine, but the 70 percent of the people in dominican republic have won those over the vaccine. and 35 percent of the people have the both vaccine. we are trying to suppress these are the federal commission in order that they can eval way these issues and they can leave or every way to leave the restriction that they have for them to grow and the main priority of the personality another we want to receive
5:18 pm
and increase the number of raising the rates from russia that can go to the military, bobby, and enjoy your enjoy your, our beaches or joy or restaurant bars. enjoy. then what are the things that has to me that you will see in montgomery probably is the wire behavior of the people who are war games in the tourism sector. when it comes to trust in the media. he does thing the united states is falling way behind at the moment, and there's also been a sharp fall to in the number of years and also readers, according to a study by britons oxford university. while the annual pole of almost 100000 people covers news consumption and $46.00 markets around the globe and also includes india, indonesia, nigeria, and columbia for the very 1st time. however, it is the united states that has the lowest levels of trust of any country surveyed, and that's at 29 percent in the paste with happened to within the last few years or so. because just 4 years ago,
5:19 pm
almost 4 and 10 americans still had trust in the news organizations. research say that the decline, though is partly related to coverage of the pandemic during donald trump presidency when that were divided over government actions. journalist and artie house chris had you says the us media though does put pleasing there audience above telling the truth. the commercial model of the us media is to cater to a specific demographic with the rise of the internet and all turn. it is sources. these traditional news outlets could no longer reach abroad audience because they didn't have a monopoly. and therefore, they decided to go after a particular demographics. and now what you've done is pit demographic against demographic, whether it's m s, nbc fox news, cnn. they become partisan catering to their particular demographic and what it
5:20 pm
wants to hear, but often at the expense of the truth. well, the oxford university findings to confirm that americans are deeply divided about each media outlets. for instance, almost as many distrust see, and then as much as trust the left leaning network and the figure or the figures are almost identical for its rival, m s n b c. and fox news stuff is one of the worst trust ratings of them all. chris hedges again says their profits come at the expense of journalism. it's going to get worse because the commercial model. and these are commercial enterprises depends on, not only catering to that a particular demographic, but also demonizing the other demographic. while these media outlets are designed to polarize the public, because commercially, they're designed to loop back to feedback to their viewers, or listeners or readers what it is they want to hear their own proclivities,
5:21 pm
their own prejudices. and that's the commercial model that's been created. it's kind of, you know, hate versus heat, whether that sean hannity, one side, or rachel mat on the other. they all do the same thing. but it's not journalism. it's just, you know, per last or vaudeville masquerading is journalism. today's if billionaires pay next to no tax in the united states could be numbered, there is now a proposal to severely limit tax free retirement accounts where the super rich do hoard vast amounts of their cash. it was revealed this month, the country's wealthiest can pay little, even though income tax debate was additionally fuel to buy the recent prison cell death of anti virus software, pine age on mcafee. he was wanted by the us for tax evasion. he had described america system is unconstitutional. liberal franka follows the money trial. what would make you bear to have the slightest of thoughts about skipping on paying
5:22 pm
taxes, which would automatically make a person criminal maybe out or unfairness of the tax system when the rich and powerful pay the government close to nothing. while the poor are burdened with agonizing percentages, surely that cannot be the reality in a country as exceptional. and a good way they say as the united states, bernie sanders, who twice ran for us president isn't so sure. we have a tax code in this country that allows multi billionaires to pay nothing in federal income tax that is outrageous. it is time for them to pay their fair share. voices calling the american tax system. unfair, flawed or outright rigged, grew louder this month after league files of the us tax authority. the rest showed some billionaires were turned laughable. shares of their income to the government. some of the more extravagant components of the tax code like anti virus pioneer, john mcafee, had been sounding the alarm or even waging war on the system. for
5:23 pm
a long time. this week, he was found dead in a spanish prison after his extradition to america was approved. the official cause of death is suicide. the i r. ash was after mcafee, for big bucks. i have not filed a tax return for 8 years. why taxation is illegal. i pay tens of millions already and receive jack in services. i'm done making money. i leave off of cash for mcafee incorporated. my net income is negative, but i am a prime target for the iris. here i am. he called taxation theft and unconstitutional, went as far as comparing the i r. s with nazi germany's part military as an organization. probably a bit too far indeed. but has debts well, definitely aggravate the debate on how fair the system is. again, with people who are even considered part of the establishment, speaking out aggressively. fundamentally broken system rewards. jeff pays off the
5:24 pm
world's richest guy with another 70, a 1000000000 more money than any one person could ever need. while amazon workers work at breakneck pace and get no paid sick leave, our tech system is rigged for billionaires who don't make their foolishness. little income, like working families to the evidence, is abundantly clear. it's time for a wealth tax in america to make the alter reach, finally pay their fair share. under our kentucky coach if phasers will probably be on the moon before he pays and federal taxes are text code, it's fundamentally broken. it is immoral when the wealthiest in this country pays 0 in taxes. it's time to reach pay their fair share. right? this brings me back to the i r s weeks. and some of the highlights in the math done by the journalist. there is no need to introduce guys like toward source healing mosque, jeff bezos right. in the years 2014 to 2018. the head of amazon paid less than one
5:25 pm
percent of acquired wealth in taxes. george soros paid no income tax at all for 3 years in a row. you and musk who true champion if we take this company with a bit more than 3 percent in the years that i mentioned. so how do they get away with it? fully, legally, capital gains is not considered income. so capital gains when you have an asset that asset increases in value. and if you don't sell the stock, let us have a stock in the stock increase in value. you don't sell the stock then you don't really have any cash. i mean, it would be a little bit absurd to, to tax the change in value that hasn't been turned into any kind of into any kind of money. will lead to be absurd to turn to, to treat that as income just to compare the median american household earned about $70000.00 in a year and paid 14 percent in federal taxes. people who are making $70000.00 a year should also be paying 0 taxes. the fact that 1000000000 years are not paying
5:26 pm
taxes, that's a good thing. the middle class is also not be paying income taxes. the fact is, if the united states could just cut spending $992.00 levels, we could eliminate the income tax for everybody. we don't need an income tax in the united states at all. we have many other sources of income for whatever bare necessities we need. and most of the things that the, that the government spends money on our luxuries or nonsense. we can get rid of all that spending and then make the tax rate 0 for everybody. and so the growing numbers really think this is absolutely unacceptable. do you get the frustration to so that's how the news is looking so fast night here. now see, don't forget, they've got a website for the stories to is usually you can find that. you don't the, [000:00:00;00]
5:27 pm
i use the
5:28 pm
news i'm action returns, we're going underground on earth. the story is buried in the circle, mainstream media coming up on the show as the china and russia snubbing g 7. summit continues in cornwall in the u. k. we speak the legendary of a historian, an activist. golly, about the meeting of the liberal leaders and ask how hope can be grasped from the jaws of despair when it comes to palestine that makes project and the police. all the small coming up in today's going underground is up to repeated threats against china and russia. so cool g, 7 leaders in england continue to talk about the future of human kind from the economy to cobra. to climate catastrophe. the summit, guarded by thousands of extra members of the u. k. security forces is facing massive protests including from groups like extinction, rebellion used by for us johnson to justify new, arguably draconian, anti protest legislation. so how can protest descent really make any difference when power more and more lies in the hands of the one percent? joining me now is the original rolling stones street fighting man, author an activist carrie gully,
5:29 pm
who has been at the heart of civil protest for decades. tag, thanks so much for coming back. gone. as you'd say, it's been a week where there's been bombing across syria linked to these very g 7 powers. obviously, following on from may's 11 day war against garza and jerusalem, you will take 1st of all on the g 7 meeting in england during a pandemic. i'm not totally sure why they want to meet. i mean, why do they want to be a magnet for huge protest? this is not the f b r exercise to get their respective populations and citizens, ideologically prepared for what they're going to be doing economically. and which is extreme name, ultimate and what they're going to do, re china and russia. i think the key issue obviously is, i mean i didn't position to take now liberalism as we have known it and to foreign money,
5:30 pm
whether it works on all we will see. but the fact that this is an initiative which is being taken by a present. it marks a shift within ruling circles in capitalism. and the 2nd question related to that, which they have to discuss, of course, is how long these huge corporations can get away without paying any taxes at all in the countries where they are aware of the invest and where they make money. whether they will come up with any satisfactory solutions as a matter of opinion, because in most cases, these logical operation, the new bill as fund quite a number of political parties, both in europe and the united states. so it's not easy to take them all. it will have to be behind the scenes, protracted negotiations to see how much these greedy vultures are prepared to
