i thought i was doing my best get back to school, which still will have the strongest appeal ah, have dropped american space, been kicked out of their homes as progress on the point and administration and failed to extend the leg moratorium on its action. the protest here is that placement mandatory health, paul says riley, pro western europe, where the number of infections is still on the rise of europe, rages against construction cases in the united states. increase 6 fold in july, while politicians have been sending mixed messages about how to deal with the pandemic. leaving many confuse various was

the choice involved in it. and i just want you to come around because it's a politics. this is not a little last a form of british. i'm boss at a time law guy rented to police to solve a prison sentence for contempt of court. indicates that some way through the john let that come in ah, 247 live from the russian capital. this is on the international course where you are joining us from with very loud that you are very welcome program. well, let's start with how millions of americans will risk imminent homelessness off to the coven links found on residential evictions expired on the 31st of july. so the ban or eviction moratorium came into effect in september and aimed to stop the spread of the virus and keep people at home, including those who can't pay run off to losing jobs in the pandemic. now the exact

number of people who might soon be force from their homes is not known. the solve a suggests to more than 3600000 fed that fate. within the next 2 months activist gathered outside washington's capital building, calling for the bonds reinstatement where they were joined by democratic party, lawmakers. i know what that is. like, i have been evicted before myself. i have had to sleep in my car myself, and so as a sitting congress woman, there is no way that i could just allow congress to recess and go on vacation. and for me to just go on with my life and not care about the 7000000 people, you know, i had people around me, so i feel safe, which i didn't feel safe when i was on housed. i had people, i had food sitting here, you know, i didn't always have food. i had enough blanket to keep me warm because it didn't get to cool at night. but that's not the reality of what happens. you know, on many nights when you are on house or congress failed to extend the bond on

friday and it's now in recess wichita for more than a month to speak to nancy pelosi has once again, pooled on president biden, to step in and renew the eviction moratorium, the white house says that's a problem. last year when the supreme court said it, it could only be extended with aggression authorization. that was their decision. that's how they were able to strike it down and that's what they needed to happen. so what's next? while to get another extension, congress must vote for that. and apparently the bargaining ministration has done too little too late. reportedly having requested an extension just 2 days before it expired. while we discussed the development with travis sheridan, a senior vice president, real estate investment from watson science and technology i, he says that the failure to extend the vixen moore tour of miss sus, exacerbate the health crisis. why? see, i see 2 different types of impact. one, if, if the united states does face another lockdown or returning to working from home,

that only works if you have a home, right? it's quite impossible to do locked down if you are and housed. and so, you know, high numbers of addiction, potential addiction and basically the locked down would not be, would not be ideal. secondly, when you are an house you are, you're facing so many more elements and environmental factors, not just the weather, but being in large spaces and crowded spaces. not able to pop properly, social distance. and so i fear that there could be an increase spread of the delta variance and increase cases as a result of potentially increase homelessness. well joining now is one for james williams. he's organizing director at the so called new york good to have you on. i mean, this is obviously a very hot topic at the moment, so many people's lives here are rest not fast. and i do want to ask you, as biden has called on landlords now, not to, to hold off on a vixen for 30 days,

but how likely do you think it is not going to listen to him? well, 1st of all, thanks for having that be appreciated. and we're in a crisis country and before it comes to homelessness, united states is a very conservative number experiencing homelessness. and i think that would joe biden to buy the landlord to use their own individual discretion to protect millions of americans from the fiction is a misunderstanding of the reality, the market you do reality of capitalism, reality or profit. so we really want to protect people that are at risk of how the over 500000 homelessness congress. well, this is what i want to ask you hit this. so the such a question of why was this moratorium not extended some planing by didn't from you know, for picking off when you 2 days ago. there's a blame in congress. why do you think congress didn't approve it?

well, 1st of all, i think it is a number of comprehensive and controversial initiatives happening in, in congress right now. so the number one, the infrastructure bill tell you right now this conversation about the. ready people that the policy full of us, we're talking about funding, the american credit pyramid that are against a major challenge. so, democrats hold this is carrie power in congress, and they're very concerned about losing power to do anything controversial or all of the thing of the packages in response to the economic costs. cobit mega has sort of i think she went in to the core because that's how they work so long. which really the people overwhelmingly asking a fascist president. donald trump, we're the ones who actually put democratic majority in power, yet they are so concerned about the response of the white committees,

in my opinion, and the republicans in general, that they are going to sort of cast away under the millions of americans. and the primary reason why we don't have this happen right now, because to be totally frank, housing and security, homelessness, hello practice in general, proportionately impact black and brown immigrant people. so what this means is that, how am the housing just how whole homes as having for health care? i'm sorry, housing, right? the are explicitly racial and class issues. so whenever you're talking about the homeless, what we're really talking about a black, we're talking about people that i before talking about people in a rural community, how people in the city. so we're not really talking about the middle class that's quite a bit of a topic where she to sort of moderate middle class home owners finding their degree of ability being ranks,

which i think our democratic establishment leaders and also the public. i mean, we've seen also that there is a lot of backlash. i mean the, the hash tag, occupy congress has been trending on twitter. i mean, that must be so many people who are ferrying themselves others who are angry on that behalf. do you think what they're going to see a lot of public and i'll be going to see protests about this? absolutely, i think that was honestly for me and organizing the person that understand the movement, building power or the only thing that really transform a country and movement, the pressure congress. and whenever we create the conditions for millions more people to be experiencing homelessness and the other related to that like increased risk to the delta barrier like increased risk of physical or psychological violence. and all of the things that happened you create that was the organized. so i think the congress is just the president of bigger call,

the people are better prices and we're continuing to see our efforts to demand that our government overwhelmingly actually since are vulnerable. busy people working people for people, yet, even with the democratic majority, after we get here, we're still having these massive gaps that have all lead me. so of course, mass protest, master of action. and that because of those, those of us were conscientious about waiting to do things and the ways that we engage them in tomorrow. we don't want to recreate conditions. it's direction on january. but i fully that the people who are really trying to build this country and make sure that all of the terror, including black or brown, l g b, people who are immigrant people who are, who are refugee. we're going to respond to this moment because if we don't respond

to this moment, what is going to happen to our folks? we again understand that the movements social movements are the only thing that's going to actually really kind of country by didn't want to live in. and you can only build a movement of people. you cannot go to all people. and we have to make sure that the people are helped and taken care of the power it's human. right. and the democrats, republicans, everybody in this country get on board with that idea. it's paramount. well, i mean, just from the way that you'll speak and i know that that is going to be a, you know, the emotions are running so high. the so much concerned that's going to be echoed by many millions all across america. we really appreciate you coming on to the program and talking to us about the thought was to on for james williams, organizing director of focus new york loc. the un special raptor on torture has questioned. the use of force by berlin. police against protest is out the weekend, off to officers and right give violent need discuss. crowds demonstrates engage tightened cove bitter sections. one incident in particular court the you want

officials attention. the me this is just been brought to my attention. can anyone provide my office with the specifics witness statements of this incident and whether an official investigation has been launched? un official that we're to talk about that knows mills. and he says he's going to officially reach out to the job and thor t's before making any comments to the press. we also all spell and police force for comment, but they say the probes are bound to take quite some time. meanwhile, a 14 year old man died in police cost to the off to being detained at a demonstration in berlin. authority suspect he suffered a heart attack beyond john, either similar, chaotic, feasible, paid out in france and italy.

the the we've seen these protests across western europe be particularly in france and italy, and here in germany as well as people are unhappy with coven restrictions that have been put in place. and typically when it comes to requirements or potential requirements for what's being called, the u green, digital pass, a digital vaccine certificate, if you will. now those demonstrations across western europe,

they turn nasty ed times over the weekend. we are civilian, we just want our basic rights back and they are the ones armed who are taking action against peaceful civilians. the geneva convention was passed in 1949, and they are gating it. i am here to defend freedom of speech because the manual microphone is trying to stifle any kind of public speech interests you the privilege called a sanitary pass, which is in fact, a way to control people for the you green pass house cause much of pro, particularly in front, swept over 200000 people across the country, came out on to the streets to vent their own happiness. it was a much smaller affair, fear in laying around. 5000 people coming out. that's after the court in germany said that the demonstration couldn't go ahead as it was the potential to be a super spreader event for cove at 19. those that did come out onto the streets of the german capital were met with, well met by riot police,

who were back so with was economy was carried out around 500 arrests in relation to, among other things, violations of the band on assembly, but also violations of the infection protection measures, as well as acts of resistance and physical assault on emergency, or no one in front, healthy union bosses calling on a manual micron to make vaccination mandatory. they say that a digital health pass isn't going to cut it when it comes to trying to stop cases rising in the country. and they want the french president to go as far as making sure that everybody must have a job. that's not the message. it's coming out from here in germany does not talk of mandatory vaccination. so what we've heard from mark is though to the leader of the states and for very, or senior politicians in the ruling coalition. here he's been saying that you don't have to get a vaccination, but if you don't, you won't have access to many things. anyone who has fully vaccinated will get back

there, right? what is needed now are clear lines so that we don't blunder into autumn. those who have been offered vaccination and consciously rejected, it will no longer be tested for free will compared to countries like the united states and the united kingdom cases of covert 19 across western europe, remain low, however they all rising. and here in germany, the rather cock institute, the federal institute that looks after public health and disease control is already warning that we may be on the coast of a 4th wave of coven. 19 a john kwan less told us the authorities only cracking down on opposition rallies in a shockey show of double standards some of the most most on position in germany, the receiving rating memory trace and they're not helping the government are not to go forward. and even how the government

clinician to be in the middle of the day, only the opposing right, we're taking today many were arrested the german government, berlin, regional government allow not over a 1000 people last weekend for one of your largest re, to be held in the street the live presentation of the mayor. and of course this leads to not crack down on that and, and what they were kissing and see is there i, i'm the john. so in the same way the protocol today should have the ability to take care of my family and focus in the b e is they are in the jungle. so europe rating gains, coping roles will happen in the us,

or the number of cases has arisen shop you will across the country with a 6 fold increase just last month. people say they are confused by mixed messages from politicians on how to deal with the pandemic. even on basics like mosque guidelines on teams to me to pick up the story science statistics. apparently none of those things really matter when dealing with cove it because the whole thing seems to have become more about politics than anything else. take florida, just recently reported a record breaking 21000 new daily cases. the state literally accounts for about a 5th of all new cases in the us. but nevertheless, florida governor ron de santis continues to refuse, imposing restrictions to prevent the spread of the disease. in florida, there will be no look downs, there will be no school closures. there will be no restrictions and no mandates, no mask mandates, no vaccine requirements. many fear the whole thing might become

a repeat of last year's cold crisis in new york. back then that liberal states delayed response, which led to numerous death was blamed on political resistance to then president donald trump. but with democrat, joe biden, now in charge and calling the shots. it seems that florida's republican governor is just doing the exact same thing and regular people feel like they're caught in the middle of it. there's too much for the political situation involved in it. and it's also because a fighter ministration also helped fuel more of the political sense of where i met before. anyway. is it for the well being a very but none of the disrespectful around what i just feel like that he's not doing enough to check to people here and he said, i just wish he would come around. they could get the politics out. this is not a little notes about, i know that's about our children. it's about us going on as i feel safe for using

my must. because we are still in upon demick. my wife died of coven, a month ago, and this is a choice i'm making. i don't get into politics, people have their opinions, but i don't get into that political rivalry seem to be the root cause of all the confusion surrounding cove. it officials across the us canyon seem to decide whether wearing mask should be a requirement 1st. they chose don't wear a mask where a mask where to mask the nic, and golf, wandering around here, the speaker come down here at 10 o'clock in the morning thing we got to wear math. i hate these things. we are absolutely sick and tired of it. and so are the american people, you think at least the president would have a consistent approach to the whole thing, but no, besides needing a teleprompter to remind him what his opinion even is. why didn't can seem to stick to a single stance on anything bit masks, vaccines or locked down. we're going, you no longer need to wear the mac and it's

in there where you made it sound like losing the math forever. biden's own staff members apparently don't know what the official stance is supposed to be. first, the white house deputy press secretary says that locked downs are out of the question, and soon thereafter biden completely contradicts her. we have the tools in our 2 belt to fight this, this, this very, to fight this vaccine. and we, we are not, we're not going to head towards a lockdown. why not? we'll do infection rates hospitalizations, death employment numbers, whether they're on the rise or declining. none of it seems to actually matter to the people in charge. the war against cove it has turned into yet another political battlefield and regular americans are just caught in between left to fend for

themselves. nothing has been done with the sole purpose of the american people for. ready absolutely not in my lifetime, and most likely not in my parents play time user. i think everything is done with how they can benefit those at the top, how they can best benefit the banks, how they can best benefit their shareholders or their campaign contributors. it's very convenient for the government to say that it's all on individual and it's all on people who are, if you could get back to me or on people who are aware of another lockdown. the pandemic has li bear the contradictions on the system. and just how vulnerable is and you know, and by the way, to say that he's leading us out of hand. but clearly it's not the case. if we still have to talk about being locked down, we are seeing on america the united states, diverge into political circus, and i think the circus is a nice way of saying it. and the people who are much better

was confused by covert contradictions. all there's a rustling in it, check this out po, to the massive crowds, out the learn, a pollute music festival in chicago. dr. good lots of people on social media and then i'll find that it's taking place full capacity during the panoramic delving stop story. i'm much more on off well tragically, this week mark see one year anniversary of the huge, devastating exploration in beirut. the claim lives of more than $200.00 people on ton swathes of lebanon's capital to rubble. we're going to see now starting footage from justice last. we can and showing that the explosion site remains a wasteland of daybreak and destroyed structures despite the devastation, the f. b. i is now completed that only a 5th of the chemicals went off from the total originally shipped. the other key questions remain on answered what triggered that last? why with the chemicals from and why would the last that for years?

yes, the report has also brought another question. what is the rest of the potentially deadly chemical shipment? it seems most of it arrived in beirut in 2013 and stayed because of legal dispute. but no one ever came forward to claimant. we want minimal stories coming to artificial breaks are a good way and i use join me every thursday. alex simon show, and i'll be speaking to guess in the world, the politics sport, business and show business. i'll see you then. me. in the old days before frank said, because the u. k was attached to the you. they could do it. other countries do, which is to take all their debts and dump it into this giant shadow banking system

that covers the world's largest trading block. and you could kind of buy some time there because the c b is printing and buying and monetizing debt by the trillion. christine the garden, literally just buying trillion control to the garbage debt. but now post practice, they don't have that way to wash the debts into the greater he, you laundromat. and so that is going to for the 1st time post bracket. debts are going to start, cause a lot of the the, the shoes ah hello again. while a former british ambassador time florida has handed himself in to police in scotland to solve an 8 month prison sentence for contempt of court. craig murray

arrived with family unsupported on a bottle of champagne. nothing to celebrate, but still it's been 70 is and someone in scotland was lost in prison on a charge of contempt by the media scottish pan express his grave concern over the imprisonment of craig murray. and calls for his release. the writer is the 1st person to be imprisoned in scotland for media contempt for over 70 years. we fear this ruling will have a chilling effect on reporting and free expression. murray was convicted over details, published in his blogs during the sexual misconduct trial, a former scotch, 5 minutes to alex, summoned in which the identities of the women led to be victims could have been revealed through the so called chick. for fact, simon was acquitted of 13 charges, but strict clause in the u. k. allow a legit sex assault victims to remain anonymous even so john, the fair, the craig, maurice, and prism and sets a worrying precedence. reporters without borders are considered the prison sentence

. disproportionate and the well journalist must ensure that here the court orders with regard to witness protection improvement in connection with any journalistic activity, should only ever be a measure of absolute last resort. if it's all, what's all of craig murray support has have compared his case to that of julian sanchez as the diplomat turned blocker reported extensively on the with leaks found as us extradition proceedings. we discussed the story with the coordinator of the craig mart justice company who says the punishment is on for i would agree that this case has a chilling effect on journalism in this country, specifically in scotland. scott's law and u. k. law differ quite significantly in many ways, but especially in scotland, we've seen that there in that in the last few years has been an increase in crackdown on democracy on transparency on what can and can't be reported. and this, this judgement is a very clear sign that there is an effort to put fear into the heart of journalists

and public commentators reporting what can be reported by mainstream media. and the difference that is being made in the judgement of craig murray as a very interesting one. the difference between journalists and public commentators and bloggers and the judges assertion that public commentators and bloggers should receive a different type of sentence for the same offense. as journalist because journalist that's supposed to adhere to john on the stake codecs isn't, and standards is an unusual one for the same sentence, the codecs which somebody has broken in advance should not master should lead to the same sort of penalty. and in this case, the penalty does not match the crime that is claimed to have been committed. let's finish up with some news from around the world and restarting with how wildfires are raging across the southern europe. with

a 100 recorded alone over the weekend. panic, tourists and locals, the floods effect areas insisting a heat way fed by hot from africa has full sporting temperatures to the region in recent days. over in greece, similar situation homes have been destroyed by wildfires. 5 people being rushed to hospital. the blazes broke out on saturday, forcing the evacuation of villages. people also had to be rescued from a beach 8 pains, and helicopters more than $145.00 fighters consent to that area. finally, a fury high governments handling of the covert crisis hotspot. thousands to protest in bangkok, demanding the prime minister's resignation fits clashes rub to between demonstrators on police as the capital entered its dod lockdown, while july marked the highest day, the death told us since the start of the panoramic. well, that is all from us. that's how things are shaping up though. you don't always

remember is waiting for you. it is updated all out of the day for the stories to check it out and have a great day. ah . when i went to the wrong room, just don't the room. yes, to fill out this thing because after an engagement equal betrayal, when so many find themselves will depart, we choose to look for common ground. this is your media a reflection of reality in a world transformed what will make you feel safe for the

tycer lation whole community? are you going the right way or are you being that somewhere which direction? what is truth, watches faith in the world corrupted. you need to defend. ah, so join us in the depths will remain in the shallows. ah, ah, the new gold rush is underway, and gunner thousands of ill equipped workers are flocking to the goldfields, hoping to strike it. rich children are torn between gold and education. my family was very poor, i thought i was doing my best to get back to school, which still will have the strongest appeal.
