kind of work and need it, and those who do it the hero or weak willed opinion is divided over a top us gymnast who quits to olympic final job for mental health concerns. while female german competitors in tokyo make a stand against sexism. we debate if what's already been done, the woke games are becoming overtly devices. lympics should represent social roles as they changed, but neither has its own central brand. it needs to keep continue, or if you any, a, tackling an influx of illegal migrants. but as i already use, there are we'll measures to stem the flow, the e,

you fold silent on the issue while at the same time slamming other states for similar action. also, i had this hour on you may find the following for the survey o. 6 roll the us, sees another act of police brutality caught on camera with 2 officers in colorado charged after the violent arrest of a suspected trespasser. ah, around the clock across the world. this is the news, our an artsy grip of you with us. my names, you know, there's been more drama the took you lympics star us jim. this simone biles has sensationally pulled out of another final. her 2nd in a matter of days considered one of the sport all time greats. bio said she was

making the move to quote, focus on her mental health. and while some observers say the move is her greatest achievement, yet others claim the athlete led her team. it's done when they needed her most i say put mental health 1st, because if you don't, then you're not going to enjoy your spore and you're not going to succeed as much as you want to. so it's ok sometimes to even set out the big competition to focus on yourself on tuesday doing the talk to y'all in big individual all around competition and women's gymnastics simone bias one of the greatest athletes to ever grace the sport for time on the big champion quite surprisingly, for many decided to withdraw from the, from the round and eventually the russian team or r o c, f, you may want gold in the discipline. first, it was cited simone biles decided to withdraw to medical reasons. then it became clear as cited by the teams entourage and by, by ourselves that this was

a mental health issue. it has created quite a whirlwind of reactions. there are those who are strongly accusing and abusing simone bias for withdrawing. that i would say spearheaded by peers, morgan, a famous u. k. tv host, who well just fell short of accusing someone violence of being a chicken and checking out on her team. and i saw something that serial winners do on mental health issues. now the go to excuse for any poor performance in elite sport was a joke. just admit you did badly made mistakes and was tried to do better next time . kids need strong role models, not this nonsense. obviously that has created huge responds online and even some mainstream media jumped in. and if you look at the language that some of these mainstream media, like washington, both of many out of used, you would think that simone biles actually won

a gold medal rather than pulling out from the competition. whenever biles pulls on her leotard, it says, though she's tighten in a cape around her neck, she's the hero tasked with save in a solid sport embodying some tried believe in american dominance, and also carry an agenda and an entire race. that's a heavy cape and it chokes. but it's one that exceptional black women and women of color are tall to wear because simply being great isn't good enough. for some reason, many of those media and bonded and commentators also decided to bring in her agenda her race into the story which is already creating another type of backlash because people cannot understand what is her decision to withdraw from one particular competition. something she has been preparing for for quite a while, because the lympics is quite important for any athlete in the world has to do with who she has, her skin color and things like that. so it's definitely creating a major rift,

and we have to wait and see where the simone biles decides to continue in this lympics. she's it for time champion in the olympics already. and obviously all eyes are on her in the u. s. thinking that she could win more, she went on instagram recently just saying how much of that weight on her shoulder is being hard on her. and may be this rift with such reactions coming from both sides would create even more pressure for the 24 year old gymnast with a very difficult boss. alexi ya, shasky taken us through that not besides mental health, the gains of also thrown a spotlight on a ledge sexism and in an attempt to buckle it. german jim, this chosen to wear a full body unit hard instead of the more traditional bikini could lean towards, the decision was made to protest. i suppose that sexualization of athletes, my colleague, rory, sushi discussed the increasing attention being paid at the tokyo olympics to none

sporting issues with a bottle of guests. this whole issue of uniform and the sexualization of women has to go quite soon and it can be so very simply, he just say here the uniformed men and women, no different, any sport that tries to segregate male and female on the basis of uniform is really back in the 20th century, one of the biggest things about the pattern and your skills and the, and that's what you're judging, not charging the uniform. well, what people don't realize the sexualization of women when they can be very self conscious when wearing we're beating clothing, which might actually performance. so really, if you really care about the school and athletes and this year, we should allow them to feel confident and what they wearing doing a bit of a problem be on the one hand the olympics is designed to extol, abuse in the perfection of the human body operating at peak efficiency, so it's there to be admired. well, the other hand,

we have contributed silly things, who may feel uncomfortable with that being live in particular. maybe there's a case for some element of choice, but at the same time we don't want to lose the essence of what they're lympics is mental health issue of simone bile. so she withdrew. i mean, does not mean a very, very difficult decision for gigi think perhaps she's set an example by doing this is a topic that has, has such as the years and only recently, always thought that people have mental health and i think they lympics of the past examples why not expect i really feel that, especially in lincoln they, they think they really try to years and years and they carry their contra shoulders . if i have to be back, okay, i have mental health, i'm not going to call the fact that she has withdrawn has both further attention to her. i mean, if she's sort of quietly underperformed and perhaps explained to the media that she does, this is just one of those events, yukon, be her peak all the time. and then quietly slipped away fine. but she really made

an announcement him put mental health health back on the map again. so the importance of mental health issue obviously shouldn't be underestimated about perhaps putting that onto the lympics as well as perhaps too much is a sporting event should be kept as a sporting event. if one is not ready for it, when really shouldn't, shouldn't be there. you can only find out sometimes that you're not ready for it when you're there already. are you afraid perhaps that non sport issues or political ones in particular for example, that could become main talking points in the future olympics? no, i'm not worried. i think it's a great opportunity. we seen so many changes already. i'm not worried, i still feel like eventually it will kind of not 5 down, but you respect respect and i'm happy to different lympics. that's put it that way. it's an a everyone watching on tv and watching, you know, 68 tests and see the stadium with every seat. they can pretend i'm enjoying it as

much as i do. other olympics i have to say, well it should be confirmed because we don't want to be just a vehicle for the latest plan that comes along. lympics should represent social roles as they change, but i need to prevent its own. st trilled brand, it needs to keep, continue to keep that wow. fight so that we have when we see the olympics of it with their own specific procedures and, and, and habits and ways. and that's the beauty olympics. that's what we want to say. we don't want to make it to the temporary to try and justify waveform. insane them to another of a headline story today. almost 200, a legal border crossings in one day. that's what lithuanian is currently facing with the total number of detain migrants dramatically spiking to $3000.00 this summer in the european nation. and while, when this has been denied for bringing and drastic measures to stem the flow,

the rti charlotte do been sky has been looking at how the e use position on the issue has dramatically changed beer. opinion say said fall all supposed to be equal partners. however, for some countries being in the gang seems of more benefits done for others. take the current situation in lithuania, which is going at the moment with an influx of migrant, difficult times call for difficult decisions. this will drastically change the way new immigration policy. it includes the tension of migrant, a ban on the release of those who are in detention for 6 months. they will be new, right to a translator, to obtain information about the process. they will also curb the right to appeal decisions and to allow for deportation while is appeals of being examined.

do whatever it takes to absolutely ensure that only people who are persecuted for political reasons and have a good ground to look for a political shelter stay here. has been created specifically to deal with my gordon's coming over from neighboring batteries, lithuania and the you accuse, minutes can be using them as a political tool as relations continue to sour. but critics say the law is a step to fall. the law is a potential human rights violation and it doesn't correspond to you directives, it and tries the current bad situation in lithia in detention centers in law and lives vulnerable people in and even more vulnerable situation. even criticism from lithuania, form a chair of the constitutional court. the proposals which are unconstitutional are based on the promise that all foreigners who cross the border are 2nd class human beings not entitled to constitutional rights conditions in the must detention

centers have also been denounced with allegations, the migrants have being stripped to fact telephones that they can only got signed for one hour a day, pressure that some say has led to people attempting to take that law. everyone detained in this building is suffering psychologically. i already ran away from iraq since it's a prison. it is the same here, please. while alyssa wayne is embarking on a massive project to keep, wouldn't be migrant out. it plans to cover almost the entirety of its food with batteries, with a breeze wire. so what do you think? let you and use border is an external you border which is currently experiencing an unprecedented influx of migrants and asylum seekers. these people, many of them butterball, need urgent support, such as food and shelter. the european union and other member states will not leave

with you and you're alone in this difficult situation. very supportive doesn't accept one another in human hungry took a similar action, only use external border with serbia following a wave of migration in 2015. the tone from brussels couldn't be any more different. we cannot accept the basic values of the european union, a being so seriously breached. and he won like hungry who built fences against war refugees, or breaches. press freedom and the independence of the justice system should be temporarily or permanently excluded from the you. last year, the years top court found hungry, guilty of breaking, assign the rules. it says it's mashed up the lose or protecting vulnerable migrant by denying them the right to apply for asylum and by forcibly to putting them. meanwhile, as you state,

which is greece also look to build rules only use external border to keep migrant out. brussels hasn't so much as batted and eyelid leading some to feel that in the, you know, partnerships are indeed equal. another act of police brutality has been caught on camera in the us. 2 officers in colorado have been charged over the violent arrest of an armed next race man. a warning you may find the following video disturbing doc, sorry, hello her. 6 her role with your hands, are you okay? 2 police officers identified the suspect kyle vinson, who was wanted by authorities for several offences. after 2 other men fled, vincent appeared to initially comply with their commands during the arrest, but resisted while being. hon cuffed, he was subsequently choked forth,

face stone on the ground and hidden the head and face with an officer. vincent was then taken to hospital needing treatment. the officers in question have since been charged with use of excessive force. the war police chief strongly condemned their conduct. you have everything on your call from work. we don't train this not acceptable. the definition of police brutality is itself is a problem. you are you, you use the force necessary to effect in a rust. you keep yourself safe to keep the citizen safe and you actually keep the person that you're arresting safe. the job of the police officer, the street car is not the punish. that's the job of the courts. so white edition, not a punishment for conviction. if so, if a police officer was aware, as was in the case of derrick shelven, that he was being video camera right. your body cameras recording you and they were this comfortable with their actions. there is a serious epidemic, a serious problem. and then police officers, history needs to be looked into. we need to look at how many other times that

person been accused, or have they taken excessive force beyond the level of what they were lawfully around the allowed to use. because if somebody feels this comfortable to get this out of control on video camera guarantee is that the 1st time they've done this. as an incident like us, the defined, the police movement is not properly communicated to the public. the de, from the police moment is a political card. it's what the politicians are using to wind up bolstering your base for more voting. it really just removes programs funding for certain areas for police officers. will you remember a wave of violent alex involving police officers in the u. s. provoke mass protest last year, around the country, leading to coles to d from the police? and while some local mirrors met those demands by then by slashing budgets, soaring crime, missing much of that now reversed with cause to refund forces. the latest is washington dcs mer, who's among the changing policy and i was to hire more police officers siding,

an increase in homicides in the nation's capital. the d. c. police budget for 2021 was slashed by $14000000.00. this year has seen more than a 100 murders. that's a figure already 4 percent off. on all of 2020 i have directed metropolitan police department to use any overtime necessary to meet our public safety demands. we also know we need all of our officers to be fresh rested, and in the best position to make good decisions. and that requires having a full force to meet all of our communities needs. you know, we discussed the issue of policing in the u. s. with her now and american evangelists, franklin graham, who's given console to several american president, he also shared his thoughts in a range of other issues, including the current state of play between washington and moscow. if you take in my country,

be funding the police. okay. seattle. they found the police department and the mayor would not support the police department. and this few days ago they had a number of shootings and murders and, and the mirror is now asking for more police. okay. well, that's a little late. but yes, this is woke, culture is gone too far. when like with george floyd and my heart was broken when i, when i watch them and when he said i came breathed and the police officer just ignoring it, just broke my heart. but there are tens of thousands of policemen that are wonderful men and women that do their job every day that risk their lives to protect the men and women of the streets and times of the way that you're saying

how the u. s. act when you came in 2015, i think you also posed in front of the map of russia, which nowadays counts as collusion. you are very praise man. but you also during that visit met with russian politicians at least one that i know is under us. sanctions did not have any repercussions. how's that received? i don't believe the sanctions. i think the sanctions heard. i don't think the sanctions do anything that make people more mad and i look at sanctions that we put on other countries around the world and it's usually other people that get hurt. the smaller people get hurt and i would, i would lift those sanctions unless get on the business. the relations between our 2 countries is the lowest has been made since the cold war. and i find this very troubling. we have so much in common with russia, with the russian people. and we need to find ways to work together. it doesn't mean that we have to agree on everything. but we need to be working together and talking

together and listening to one another is so important. there's, when you look at the needs of the world with american russia working together, i think we can help solve some of the problems. i think, i think starting relationships with people themselves is extremely important. encourage the president, trump, every time us with him to try to work with russia. the problem we had is the media turned on president wrong. they gave out false information on president trump accused russia interfering with elections and these types of things. and it just divided our country and made it almost possible impossible for president trump to do anything 20 minutes into the

program. still, i had the tap, threatened to run raleigh in lebanon with the us warning, millions of my is a huge the country in the region. there are at risk because of water shortage. is more than that after the short break. ah, what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy going from station let it be an arms race is often very dramatic. development only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical time. time to sit down and talk the

ah, me the the, the, the ah hello again. chicago's mirror, lori lightfoot. say she isn't sorry for her decision to grunt interviews only to non white reporters, saying it triggered quote, much need to debate. i would absolutely do it again. i'm unapologetic about it

because it's per a very important conversation. the conversation that needed to happen that should have happened a long time ago. the merit also said that media conferences are dominated by white reporters, suggesting its time outlets better reflect the makeup of american society. she's being seen here for her stuff, a reporter from the daily caller. who argues lightfoot is violating basic principles or freedom out that christopher harvest of on hyphenated immersive, an online news and been at home. and so i believe the race card is being played by the democratic party to distract people from policy failures, st energy efforts. and they will be gender likely more than smoke and mirrors is a smoke screen just to distract people from all the other things that are taking place. it's a piracy we can just run on down the line, all the people out there, whether it's the elected officials, like laurie lightfoot, or other people in the media were out there trying to join up race wars and all

that is a slight of hand to try to, to just to distract you from the things that are not working with their public policies and look at the results. the black community or somebody say the african american community is one of the ones that suffers the most by continuing to vote for people like laurie lightfoot in for the party that she represents. because it just leads to more swirling around the toilet. that's essentially what ends up happening in the black community. water scarcity is fast becoming a life and death matter in the middle east and north africa and level on the situation so dire that the children's charity unicef is calling for immediate action of millions in the country, which is a huge percentage of the population risk losing access to clean water and just the number of weeks we heard from the u. s. representative in the nation. well, utility companies in lebanon, approximately would have between 4 to 6 weeks before they actually shut down

altogether. we're extremely concerned that due to the economic crisis, which is spiraling out of control, that this is not going to affect the very essential water supplies for 4000000 people in the country. and the deterioration of the crisis have really accelerated in the past 12 months to a point where now even basic, essential, experimental, fair, part, consumable. even chlorine actually make sure that the water is safe to drink, even that is often no longer available for the utility companies. unicef estimate shortages could see water fees surged by 200 percent a month, meaning the most vulnerable will be unable to meet the most basic needs. local reporter linda to mean filed this report of the unfolding prices from all of lebanon's main cities. i'm standing inside and 11 on 2nd largest city

and according to what i was water outage and here are even worse in the are. and i'm just about to meet with a resident here, which is all about the issues facing with these families when it comes to water out . most of her and his family have been suffering from severe outages throughout the summer. sometimes they go for days without a single drop of water. we have several water bills to pay. once we get so we need to get extra supplies. if there's no electricity of fuel for generators, pump water, we cannot week long outages. it's very difficult, especially in the summer we already have so much to deal with. we are very tired of the extra tanks often filled up by private water. companies have been springing up on roofs. all oversight and water has become so precious. in fact, that people have started locking their tanks out of fear that neighbors might steal from them. most families here inside and used to require just one water tank like

those that you can see right behind me. but now they're not enough. so at least 4 tanks are required for household. and it's important to note that each of those tanks needs at least 6 hours of electricity or generator in order to pump that water, all the way up and fill up those tanks. but now with the fuel crisis and the power outages that lebanon is constantly facing, most of these tanks do not fill up. the un is already raising the alarm, seeing that the countries water system is on the brink of collapse. and that's the, made the ongoing political and financial crisis. the one that the world bank has already described as likely to be among the top 3 most severe financial crises in the world. since $850.00 basic necessities such as medicine, fuel and electricity have been scarce in recent weeks and with water prices increasing at an alarming rate. families have been rushing to secure alternative supplies with no real solution in sight. many may soon be forced to compromise on

their personal hygiene to save water, which begs the question of whether lebanon can avoid the potential public health catastrophe looming on the horizon. no, just what is the story with amazon and it's accepting of bitcoin as payment. it is a move that would shake the e commerce world to its core and far beyond. but is it actually going to help and been bust explores next? the the been the in my phone are 60 and i don't i

just saw up dollar format, isis fighters, and now a boarding a philippine naval ship with this has been john $900.00 jeff, aren't abdulla still don't know, watch waiting for them. can i get a hold of me . ready ready

this is the bus one business. sure you can't afford to miss. i'm rachel was over at the board was coming up. ross, chinese stock. they're trading down as the nation. government continues to crack down on business. will discuss the ongoing uncertainty. meanwhile, the united states has seen its trade deficit expand by record numbers in june. we bring you the figure that what's behind the growing invalid that the federal reserve wraps up. it's this meeting for the scots, how the uptick in both cases and inflation are playing a role in the central bank policy. we have a tax show today for cyber i then we begin the program with huge news and chinese market as a sell off led by text docs continues to impact the chinese.
