is that documentary, i see it all naughty. ah, the headlines here, what archie, an american nose is suspended from work after refusing to take a cove with short on religious grounds. as the bible administration extends 9 to treat jobs now to private companies. i, unfortunately, they deemed that my religious beliefs were not sincere. it's kind of surreal, honestly, because i love my job and i have been a coven nurse for since the beginning germany for past tightened restrictions on the, on vaccinated daily cobra cases. so it's all time reco, it's pushing germany's health care system to the limit. also, in the program, a russian research in america who contributed to the infamous steel dossier on trump alleged ties to russia is now charged with lying to the f. b. i

and a backlash against woke nist as seen as one of the key factors turning us voters against the democrats as they suffer, a series of defeats and local elections. ah . your friday stories gathered world wide welcome to the program. this is our t international. the u. s has now registered to 81000 coven cases in just the past day. it is the world's highest figure, and come to spite the government's all our efforts to get people vaccinated on mass, including that through a federal mandate. now that pressure has been met with fierce resistance, however, and one knows, for example, in california has been suspended by a private hospital office. she refused to take her cobit shot. so she filmed herself being escorted from her. what place i am being escorted out

of kaiser. permanente hospital for my religious beliefs because i don't want to get a job. they deemed that my religious beliefs were not sincere. and i was upset about that because i haven't really sincere religious beliefs and convictions. and i wanted to get answers from the hospital as to some random h r person deciding that my livelihood was now going in jeopardy because they didn't believe that i really have sincere beliefs in my christian faith is kind of surreal, honestly, because i love my job and i have been a coven nurse for since the beginning. well, at washington's controversial work legs, vaccine mandate is now expanded to small businesses. are all workers are they need to get a vaccine or a weekly pcr test?

penalties for employers start at $14000.00 for violation, and that could arise up to that just about that figure right there. so several states have already opposed to measure and filed very swift lawsuits straight against the biden administration. now the requirements don't cover everyone, however, there are some exemptions. they include certain medical conditions, pregnancy or religious beliefs. however, federal agencies can now refuse to grant medical or religious exemptions. if they like, the company that owns a hospital has suspended now more than 2000 employees who are refusing to get their jobs, it says they will be able to return to work as soon as they get their injection. however, victoria jensen says she's done everything necessary to keep stuff on patients safe, but that her religious views at the end of the day, which was kicked to the cub. i made a choice for myself and i think everyone is should have the freedom to make their personal choice. i know a lot of people who did not want to get this vaccine but did it because they didn't

feel they were pressured so much. they didn't feel like they could, could move for and they just went ahead and took it. and i respect their decision to their medical freedom. i respect people who don't agree with me. this is america . and it's a beautiful thing when you can disagree with each other. that's what freedom is. we don't have freedom if we don't have people that disagree. now we should say, here are naughty that the un and the w h o continue to stretch. the pandemic can only be stalked through. must inoculation no natural immunity. in the meantime, germany has not registered its highest ever daily spike and cove infections. raising the prospect of tough new restrictions will. then 35000 cases have been reported in the past 24 hours that it makes it now the world's 4th highest. right. the latest wave is taking a toll on hospitals. the number of patients and intensive care has served by 25 percent and one intensive care doctor in nuremberg said the health care system is

being pushed to the brink. for us, the situation is very tense. all the beds are full, we're still trying to take care of the urgent cases as best we can. on the one hand we treat many cobra patients, but we also have to provide the rest the medical care that is normally done. hospitals all reach to the limits, especially the larger hospitals that kind of for the most severe patients, both with and without cove, it for medical stuff, we're now in the 4th wave on a is a huge burden. whatever. well, i mean time, several german regions and are preparing tough new restrictions as all europe correspondent, peter, all of us now reports scolded fig is a germany to not make for good reading as the theatre. 4th wave is very low to whistles. if we do not acts this 4th wave will again bring a great deal of suffering. many people will fall seriously ill and die, and the health services will be under extreme pressure again. around 67 percent of the german population is fully vaccinated,

but the numbers coming forward has plateaued in recent months. fronting politicians to fear that a new type of pandemic could be upon us. we are currently experiencing a pandemic of the unvaccinated, which is massive. there would be few karone of ours patients on intensive care units. if more people would let themselves be vaccinated. the big worry now is that those people who haven't gone for a vaccination have no intention of doing so. and that may well lead to more restrictions on what people who haven't been jobs can do. if the pandemic situation in hospitals worsens than further restrictions for unvaccinated people are possible . some of germany, 16 states on waiting for a federal decision to be made and have already put in place new measures in the very a mosque wearing will be mandated in schools in the state of hassan. that is going to be a new testing system. put in place for those going to visit hospitals,

old care homes. and in the state of bottom vote and book where you're going to need to show a p c r test. if you all run vaccinated and wants to go to a bar, a restaurant, or theater, german business leaders want the government to give them the rights to impose the so called 3 g system. that means that anybody who is in vaccinated recovered or tested could be bod, from employment. some of germany's biggest companies of already brought in controversial canteen segregation. employees who being double jobs, can sit together and eats as normal. those who have nots or choose not to reveal their vaccine status, must remain in a cordoned off area where masks have to be worn when not eating. chemical giant via told r t. they may even take this further. depending on specific facility needs a separate to g area is also created which offers immunized to employees a space with less distance to each other on

a volunteer basis. this will be planned in close corporation with work representatives and site management in the uncontrolled areas of the can seen the distance root of to meters from each other continues to exist and individual sitting is offered. all the big names in the german business world say they're reviewing the situation. goods some company say this just isn't the way forward. in the contains as of today now distinction is made between unvaccinated and vaccinated or recovered and blaze. currently we're not consider in separate contin areas, which it every one equally with germany, posting record daily cove. it case numbers, politicians, business leaders, and health care professionals all agree that something has to be done and all bracing for things to potentially get worse. over the coming winter months. peter, all of a hearty girl in the recent local elections in the united states, felt

a series of shock defeats for the biden administration in new jersey. for example, a self funded truck driver ousted a democrat as president of the state senate. and they're now grubbing signs of a serious backlash against so called woke policies. as ought easter metro park now takes a closer look. well, it's looking like a case of you reap what you sow. turns out, forcing progressive policies on people who don't want them. can lead to surprising results at the polls case in point, the latest elections in the us, one of the biggest upsets, came from the state of virginia, where g o p. candidates, unexpectedly swept to victory and even established the 1st republican governor of virginia in over a decade. let's climb that hill together. let's reinvigorate our future. let's reinvigorate this amazing commonwealth of virginia. god bless you all, god bless to come. what?

meanwhile, in other states, what was supposed to be a walk in the park for the democrats, turned into a grueling battle with new jersey governor barely coming out on top to retain his seat. but if that wasn't already enough of a wakeup call for democrats. what happened next in new jersey amounted to political earthquake, edward d'oeuvre, a truck driver who raised $10000.00, but apparently spent only a $153.31 on coffee and flyers managed to defeat the states. long time senate leader democrats, steve sweeney, who had held his seat for over a decade and was considered the 2nd most powerful person in the state. it's like a movie script come to life. but how could something like this actually happen? well, the answer seems to be left. he policies. steve sweeney, has spent the last decade leading the effort to make new jersey. they must texted state in the nation. he's defeat displays, how garden state voters have rejected the socialist policies coming out of

democratic control, trenton and are hungry for fiscal sanity once again. so it turns out that raising taxes, the funding, the police and ramming critical race theory, downs, school children's throats is not quite as popular as the left and biden's administration would have you believe what went wrong is just stupid goodness. i mean this, steve, from the police lunacy this, take abraham lincoln's name off of schools. i mean that people see that it's just really has a suppressive effect all across the country. and the democrats, some of these people need to go to a woke detox and throw something they're expressing a language that people just don't use and as backlash in of frustration of that. but while woke policies might seem like the likely explanation for why democrats lost so many seats, there are those who actually see the whole thing as a resurgence of white supremacy. even if the people elected are, you know, black, it's not the messaging folks. this country simply loves white supremacy. white

women are thrilled to have a cause in our lane that we can throw ourselves behind critical race theory, panic in which we can wring their hands about white children and obfuscate our white supremacy. this is what white women have done best since the fifty's and will continue to do. dear media. republican voters are not excited by the issue of education. republican voters are excited by the issue of white supremacy. while identity politics doesn't seem to be going anywhere anytime soon, in the u. s. political landscape, it's safe to say that elections like the ones in virginia, new jersey, highlight the average americans feelings towards the laughs and biden's policies in particular. and it seems they want a long overdue change of tune. the domestic side is not good. i mean, i do not think so. all politics is a direction to go. and we've even got disagreements within the democratic party, but it's almost like 2 different parties and some, you've got the progress, those that are pushing for one side. you've got modern on another side. and i mean,

they lost their unifying figure. the unifying figure was president trump and, and now they're still trying to run against president trumpet, who's not there. if things continue the way they are, i think you're going to see a huge, huge red wave. come come at the mid terms and you'll see both the senate and house flip. the bottom line is they need to listen to the people and what the people want . don't shut things down the people throat that they're not interested in. and that they knew not believe a russian unless to contribute it to the infamous field off ca, on alleged trump, russia, a ties is now facing prison time and america, you go to don shanker, has been charged with lying and his testimony to the f. b. i, if found guilty, he could face up to 25 years behind bars. don shanker, was arrested on thursday and released on bail while the investigation is ongoing. earlier correspondent, daniel hawkins took us through the case from russia. collusion,

saw the really shows no son of a biting, even 5 years on the rest of the wood. and it was just a new twist in this plot. but we do know dancing go is a russian born analyst living and working in the us. he's been taken into custody by the federal agents. he has been charged with 5 counts of making false statements to investigate as regarding his sources of information which were later included in that still bill shape and handed over to the f b. i. those allegations of a trump criminal conspiracy to try to steal the presidential election that they were fueled in part, at least by documents such as a steel dossier, which was a report written by former british spy crew of a steel filled with simulations. as we say. and between trump in the kremlin to win that election, now that document came in full very heavy criticism. a lot of it was debunked by the molo pro, but indeed, a doubt was cast on a much of information within it. a by the author himself. i'm prepared to accept that not everything in the dossier is 100 percent accurate. i have yet to be

convinced that that is one of them. and it's worth mentioning both the original investigation and this one have both been labeled as politicized by critics and supporters of donald trump. like it's been a highly divisive issue. but why is this significant? because if dancing go is found guilty and he has already been charged. this makes him a 3rd person to have criminal action bought against him as a result of this probe, we've had one, a cyber security lord charged again with lying to the f. b, i as part of this probe, a federal agent last year, admitting to altering an email with regards this prob. so, and the more john durham digs the more he finds, and certainly if there are more arrests and charges, it's anyone's guess as to just how deep this probe could go into that original investigation. at a trump, russia collusion. we spoke with a legal and media analyst, lionel, who thinks the entire still dossier was actually based on false day based. all of this surveillance on lie after lie after lie down was stitched together and

put into this thing called ad darcy for some reason. a pack of lies is ela made it does. i mean is superior status by giving it be, audrey fancy, sh mancy da, ca all love these lawyers who went after and claimed that trump was colluding with russia. and it was our base, or like, you mean to tell me nobody knew this, nobody ever listened to the stories. it said this is ridiculous, this is, this is preposterous. know, they went with it because they felt as though nobody's going to stop us. we have impunity and forget trump. why don't we care? because at that time, anything about trump when and if you through in rush. oh my god, it was it just intrigued us? john durham is a no nonsense prosecutor. most of us forgot about him. well, now he is apparently cranking this out and let me tell you that me, it's about time. i still to come the program here when r t,

let's go. brandon. find out why republican politicians are now seizing on a new nickname that is mocking joe biden. in the best or the worst of ways. we're back in just about 60 seconds. ah . back kaiser's financial survival guide. housing, bravo. oh, you mean there's a downside, artificial mortgage right? don't get carried away. what kind of report? join me every posted on the alex simon. sure. but i'll be speaking to guess in the world of politics, sport, business, i'm show business. i'll see you then. mm. i don't. it was built on the structure that was created 1st and child.

so without understanding the child with relationships, it becomes very hard to understand adult relationships. and that's why it's incredibly important to be able to have a basic understanding of what motivates you as an emotional b i o talking to you to join us for the so friday program here on r t. so the governor of florida has become the latest us politician to embrace the well growingly popular. let's go brandon. the coded dig the u. s. president joe biden was and taken up by the crowd at a rally event. when you look at the biden,

the brand in administration, in terms of, oh, the whole a, let's go brandon joke started afternoon b. c report her apparently miss ho racing fans chanting a foul mouth insulted joe biden. they went viral very quickly. first sporting events, then an antique government protests and now all sorts of politicians are jumping on the bandwagon. oh, let's go brand, then they will you. he'll put america back where you found it. leave it the hell alone. let's go. brandon. how you back? good. let's go brandon, from the record levels of inflation to the crisis at our southern border. americans are fed up with biden's dangerous liberal policies. we spoke with a political culminated nico,

how's she thinks that beyond the whole brand and jokes, there is actually a deep sense of disappointment with the biden administration, particularly among those who voted for him while they play civility. civility politics, you have real people who are suffering from real problems. mbc put out a poll that show joe biden has about a 46 percent approval rating, which would be significantly less than what he's had throughout his presidency. once again, a has only been a year or less than a year, really. and so the fact that this chan become this, popularized as it has. and the fact that coincides with his taking a poll numbers, i think it's fair to say that people do really feel like that. i mean, you're, you from, from our perspective, there's not a single promise that joe biden has put out there, that he is kept. i mean, from whether, whether, when talking about before the campaign even finished, or in a week to week basis ever, he throws carrots and never actually does what he says he's going to do. and at

that point, a lot of people just feel like, you know, let's go brandon, the mainstream media lease in the a liberal mainstream media's fault. that this became a thing. and i felt like it's very representative of emblematic and emblematic of what we saw during the election every time joe biden would do something bad. they would try to whitewash whatever he dade, and pretend like it never happened. in fact, sometimes pretend like it was a good day. a museum and the u. k has removed a picture of a war hero over his ties to slavery. lieutenant general thomas picton was the most senior british office at a die in the battle of waterloo, in 1850. and his portrait was on display of the national museum wales and caught it the more than a century. and while being regarded as a public hero, he's also well known for his bad treatment of slaves and the sanctioning of torture during his governance of trinidad. that was at the turn of the 19th century. the museum commissioned a year long project now probing the legacy of pixar and plans to re display and

reinterpret the portrait in a re angling of the way he's presented. for now, however pickens portrait will simply be replaced, and the museums decision was certainly met with a healthy dose of skepticism. as a journalist, i feel uneasy about this element of censoring history should not picked and remain on display as a reminder to wales of an aspect of its past. no matter how disgraceful is that general sir thomas picked and killed in action at the battle of waterloo. in 1815 history is not yours. discord histories there to learn from. so the same thing never happens again. the museum should be ashamed of itself. sir thomas picton was the most senior british officer to day at waterloo, facing the pool in his picture, has just been removed from welsh, national museum. no time for heroes. one day all humans will be canceled. because once upon a time they were owning cars, the museums, collections, director of things, the pictures removal was an important step in the re examining. national collections of this is not the 1st time picked in a related art has been removed. early this year the cardiff city council decided to

put away a marble statue of him from the city hall. a journalist at marcos, theed things were moving art at the, at the end of the day can be rather counterproductive. i am reluctant to judge people from the past by the standards we live by today. i mean times have changed massively. even in the last 3040 years, the painting should be available in cardiff museum for the public to say, visitors to safe a school expeditions for children to say. but there should be a plaque underneath it, explaining that this man's legacy is hugely mixed. he has an appalling track record in terms of his boldest governor of trinidad, particularly in the treatment of the 14 year old girl. but also he showed incredible bravery at the battle of waterloo, when taking on the evil of napoleon. a nice things need to be put into a fuller context, the proper context. but at the same time, censoring people is not the solution. and censoring books about is not the solution . the past doesn't disappear, just because you're taking down paintings all tearing literature,

tearing down statues. you've got to confront these things, head on and put it into a proper context. and that's how you build bridges. and that's how you, you build a coherent society. the british armed forces are way thing, billions of pounds a year on procurement contracts, according to a parliamentary spending watchdog and comes off to the ministry of defense, received a substantial boost to its budget. the department system for delivering major equipment capabilities is broken and is repeatedly wasting taxpayer money. we are deeply concerned about departmental witnesses, inability, or unwillingness taunts of basic questions and give a frank assessment of the states of its major programs. the department continually fails to learn from its mistakes. the provo singled out a project to develop a jacks, armored vehicles describing it as a catastrophe. none of them are ready despite 4000000000 pounds of spending over

the past decade. out of 20 programs examined by the house of commons committee 13 a behind schedule. the ministry of defense has justified the delay. st. procurement is a complex challenge for my military intelligence officer. philip ingram thinks the ministry needs to be more open about where all this money is going. the minister defense has never been the best to trying to explain the money that its allocating in particular to equipment program, but it has some massive disasters. mature historically the, the upgrade to the nimrod program. and more recently, as quoted in the guardian newspaper, the armies ajax recognizance vehicle and only 14 vehicles have been delivered and they are not fit for purpose. very, very large sums of money are split up into it being spent into a number of different financial years. and if it isn't spent in that financial year or too much as needed one financial year, it causes the whole accounting system to become unbalanced. and then when programs

run very over, cost or problems evolve in the programs like is happening with the armies. ajax, that just adds another layer of complexity to it. the biggest changes that are needed in the system are to take a business minded approach and bring proper business people into negotiate contracts. professional individuals who understand complex project management from a commercial procurement perspective, not necessary. just a defense perspective, i'm can negotiate the contract properly. so that whenever the written liability lies with the supplier, not with the ministry defense and there for the taxpayer, that something has to come in. that's of the new cost that's half our life. let's go on our tea international. thank you so much for joining us here. for the friday program, plenty of stories still to come from all around the world. we come back to you in about 32 minutes with

with ah, ah, where empowering ourselves to be more efficient or quicker with our transactions. we can make mobile payments from our stands. the truth is that every device is a potential entry point for security attack. i think a lot of a meeting,

but only eventually there's malware of thousands, maybe sometimes millions each day. they use the cyber, they use the technology as an extension of traditional artificial intelligence has not many main threat. this is due to the 3 laws of robotics. one of the things that's happening at the many cyber implants right now, i'd be where they're really worried about it. most people with equally b, you can put a chip in my brain. so there has been a lot of progress from the hacker side using ai and using other advanced technologies. there has been on the defensive side a ah

no come through so speaker visionaries, me sophie shepherd, not so from an early age will strive to understand the world around us. but maybe we should do more to understand ourselves. well, today i'm asking lives big questions about love and happiness to philosopher and founder of the school of life along the bottom. i landed, but all welcome to the show. it's great to have you with us. so we got our big questions to you. you dedicated a lot of them art to studying and telling people about the emotional intelligence. and here's the thing this to work together. so sound a bit wake chicken soup for the so kind of a phrase, you know, what i mean? or something from a book of

a notorious life coach tony robbins. what makes you take emotional intelligent intelligence? seriously? why should take it seriously? for the most part, we don't really understand what it means. yeah. so my approach is, is very different from the american approach, and i'll tell you how americans generally believe that life can be made perfect. and that happiness is the birthright of every citizen. this is not my starting point or the starting point of the organization. i leave the school of life we have, if you like, a more tragic starting point. and the tragic point of view is that human beings are made to suffer. that there is going to be a huge amount that goes wrong in everybody's life. this is not to say that we should despair. in fact, we can be very joyful. we can connect with others around the difficulties of life. but we are very keen to suggest that.
