9:03 pm
there are at least $2500.00 migrants. they started to arrived this morning at around 10 a. m. large groups of 510200 people traveled along the road to the forest and then came here to the polish border through the forest roads. but no curve, the main flow of migrants ended at around 1 pm. some arrived here by taxi, some by public transport, all of them and to get into poland and say there's no way back for them. they say they got hair on taurus visas by play. they arrive from different cities, minsk, grodner, and breast. they agreed on the date and place using the telegram messenger app. it's now evening and they're even more migrant. they're constantly arriving the campus set up really close to the border with some of the tensor set up right next to polish territory. on the pony side, there were a lot of police, military personnel, and equipment. they also brought water cannon,
9:04 pm
the migrant say they will stay here until they get to poland. they've let bonfires set up, 10 brought food with them, but not a lot. all of them have warm clothes with them. we also see here a lot of families with small children, children aged to 3 years old summer, even younger. all of them are determined to stay here. today they will stay here for the night of correspondent peter oliver has more on the escalating border situation. in fact, the polish president under a do there is currently in a meeting with the prime minister in my parish motive. it's and security leaders as well, an emergency meeting being cold as things escalated or not border with bellow roofs . throughout monday we saw the tree trunks being used as a battering ram to try and get through the border fence there. there were people with pliers and why a quarter of some kind tried to cut through the barbed wire as they were being
9:05 pm
sprayed with pepper sprayed almost point blank range from border guards just over the other side. one guy using a spade to try and beat down barbed wire as well right in front of those. those border defense troops. now extra troops had been sent by poland to that from caea. 12000 extra troops called up a state of emergencies currently in play in poland because of the flow of people trying to get from bella for try to get from bella rhys into poland. but state of emergency last to 3 months. now the bellow, roche, and boarded guards of actually put out a statement in which they said that the polish side are attempting to inflame the situation. taking into account statements by polish officials on the concentration of armed forces and equipment near the border, we do not exclude the possibility of provocative actions by the polish side and justifying the use of physical force and special equipment against refugees,
9:06 pm
or the spy that statement. it's hard to see what poland would stand to gain from inflaming the situation any further elsewhere in europe though a lot of focus is also turning towards this border here in germany, the interior ministry has said that they will be actively pushing for more sanctions on bellow. roofs over this incident, in the escalation of this incident, they want those sanctions to target things like airlines that have been used in to bring migrants from the middle east, mostly to bell roost. and then from bella, from arriving in bella roost, they've made their way to the polish border. nato have also put out a statement saying this mince and alexander, lucre shanker, the, the bell russian president a, using these migrant says what they call a hybrid tactic in or in response to sanctions that have already being placed on bella. ru, stay the nato alliance. going on to say that they found this unacceptable. now,
9:07 pm
the german foreign ministry, it previously put out a statement in which they said they have proof that alexander lucas shanker is directly linked to driving, migrants towards this border. the situation continues to be of utmost concern to us . we observe how the look of shanker regime continues to call migrants to bellows and send them on a dangerous journey towards the e. you. there is evidence that the regime and means constantly direct people to the border or the beller as president denies any involvement in pushing people towards the boundary with poland. what alexander lucas shank has said is that his country can't afford to look after migrants that are there saying that the sanctions that have been put in place on barriers already by the european union of crippled it financially. i honestly said that we wouldn't hold any more of the people you've been screwing over enough canister on iran and iraq. we have neither the money nor the strength to do so as a result of your sanctions. while lithuania also getting involved is this really
9:08 pm
turns from being an issue between poland and bella roost into it. an issue involving the why the european union lithuania saying that they would send troops to the polish elevation border and that they may well be looking at declaring a state of emergency in their country as well. the tesla, c, e o. ilan mosque has been marked on twitter by his followers after he created a poll asking them whether or not he should sell 10 percent of his company stock with around $21000000000.00 to help fund a huge tax bill. this twitter pole decides the fate of $20000000000.00 plus of teslas stock, more like a guilt free way to sell at the top of the bubble before the correction. so no one can attack him. i work 2 jobs just to get by for my family. part for me to have an opinion on what the bill in there should do. does it make you happy that you're
9:09 pm
bored, him and frustrations you display or no social media actually affect people and destroy what they have worked hard to earn. right. despite utterings of frustration on social media platforms, the majority of those who took part in the poll approved of the venture just under 60 percent of his 3 and a half 1000000 followers, encouraged the billionaire to sell his stock. but it does beg the question as to why the business magnate who said that he would listen to the results of the survey, put the onus on the public to make such a financially significant decision. note, i do not take a cash salary or bonus from anywhere. i only have stock. that's the only way for me to pay taxes personally is to sell stock. i. now all of this coincides with the democrats plans to increase taxes on the wealthiest, which would impact around $700.00 billionaires in america, under the proposals for countries richest, could be forced to pay taxes on rising stock prices, even if they have not sold shares,
9:10 pm
something the financial world dubs as unrealized gains these proposed tax hikes that must can, has criticized would help fund us president job binds trillion dollar proposed spending spring of the next 10 years. meanwhile, the sen behind the plant has come out to condense mosques, twitter, stunt worth. whether or not the world's wealthiest man pays any taxes told shouldn't depend on the results of a twitter pole. it's time for the billionaires income tax. right. researcher peter, earl. meanwhile chimes in on the situation and calls must twitter poll millie an act of showmanship. he would probably exercise options and sell stock anyway. i think this is showmanship. and he could do some pretty easily. it's only, i mean he, if there's a 1000000 shares are standing, you're 40 percent them. that's 23000000 share. the average daily volume is about 21000000. so of course, a few days you could liquidate that state without even really impacting the market
9:11 pm
price. one way of looking at must asking the twitter crowd what he should do with those tests of stake that is reckless. but i also argue it shows how we large personal welding. it's about 350000000 now. and such a tremendous amount numbers probably don't even seen real. the french police officer has been attacked with a knife in the southern city of can authorities that say his bullet proof vests saved him from any serious injury incident is being investigated as a possible terror attack. ortiz, charlotte davinsky reports to 6 30 am local time. this ex pack was carried out. we understand the police officer was in a vehicle just outside his police station, and the attacker opened the door of the car and then attempted to stab the officer to deck. now we understand the officer survived without any injuries. thanks to his bullet proof vest,
9:12 pm
but we do understand from sources on the ground that while that attack was attempted, the aggressor shouted that this was being done in the name of the muslim prophet. now we understand that a colleague of that police officer who was attacked aimed fire straight away at the attack, it severely injuring them on the on. now i said to be severely injured and being treated for that, we understand that the attacker is a 37 year old with the original nationality of being algerian. and he said to have been unknown to the police before this incident. but because of the fact that the aggressor said that this attack was in the name of them was in prophet muhammad, this is not being treated as a possible terror incident here in france. now this is not the 1st time we have seen an attack of this nature here in france just in april this year. so not too many months ago, a police officer administrative worker was stabbed to death just inside the secure
9:13 pm
area of a police station who hadn't booley, which is not too far from paris. and then in may, so less than a month later, there was another attempt on the life of a police officer at this time, leaving not opposite, severely wounded. that took place of the city of north in western france. so we do get these attacks from time to time and back in 2019 october a radically i t employee over the police station in paris, a killed 3 police officers and an administrative work a what was a terror attack back then? one of the worst attacks in sight, a police station where that took place now for mocking the pain from the natural valley who funks. she seems to be saddled, that these attacks are becoming what she described as being normalized. i get the impression that this kinds of crimes are becoming usual as if it's some form of habit. i urge the french people not to get used to the situation. now france has
9:14 pm
been suffering from a wave of violence in the last decade and attacks like this shop and the idea of people for you ring that they could be food that islamic attacks like the ones we saw back in 2015. but for the moment, this appears to be a lone wolf attack. it is being treated as a possible terrorist incident to 37 year old man said to be of an algerian origin is not being treated for severe injuries after a tempting to stab a police officer in can on monday morning by the administration's push for mandatory coven vaccinations has exposed a sharp divide in the us over the weekend and appeals court temporarily blocked the government's job requirement for businesses. but that did not stop people from protesting. ah,
9:15 pm
ah. the contested mandate would apply to businesses with at least $100.00 employees. vaccines are already obligatory for public officials. now this comes at a time of high infection rates, averaging about $73000.00 per day in the u. s. despite a federal appeals court freezing the private sector, the requirement, the surgeon general insists that the measures are needed. the person in the administration wouldn't have put these requirements in place if they didn't think that they were appropriate and necessary, and the administration is certainly prepared to defend them for all those promises of healing. biden's america has become a tinderbox rife with anger and division. and the latest vaccine mandate was just the thing to spark the fire. this mandate is unconstitutional, unlawful and unwise sir biden vaccine. monday is
9:16 pm
a shocking invasion of medical privacy and individual liberty. i will not stand for it. i am exploring every legal option to defend the rights of north caroline and against this unconstitutional mandate with president by to plan to mandate vaccination in the u. s. companies with over 100 employees. more than 2 dozen states have now come out swinging, determined to protect the rights of 84000000 workers, but was extraordinary, was up buried and read was a blue state, new hampshire. this was no longer some protest on the street. this isn't longer about loyalty to one's party. this was the country big guns from both sides of the aisle coming out proclaiming we the people say, no. a court has now frozen the mandate nationwide. that's concerned, it's an overreach. what about individual liberty? what about the constitution? what's about a precedence? promise? no, i don't think it should be mandatory. i wouldn't demand to be mandatory,
9:17 pm
but i would do everything in my power just like i don't think mask have to be made mandatory nationwide and do everything in my power as president stage to encourage people to do the right thing. turns out that the man who didn't believe in mandates has turned into a big fan of them fast for federal employees and now for private ones. heads, mosque up, get job done. you might be out of the job. now you think that being food by more than half the country states would dump in your spirits, but no, the white house is still feeling good. the just the ministration over the next thing, the requirements for workers companies. i'd like to get your response to that and also how confident on you can withstand these channels as well. so we are very confident that it can now biden insist he's acting according to international medical guidance. the vaccine is the only way out of the pandemic. a view shed by
9:18 pm
many, but the timing is bad. discussions of to job will not have reached fever pitch. mm. from california to mississippi. angry citizens have flaunted the streets some say they'll never vote democrat again, others, but they'd rather be unemployed and give out that freedoms. then you look at the recent elections, a litmus test of the bite and presidency. the democrats took a beating and what many say is a bad omen for the mid tom's next year? it's been a bumpy few months and for some that's just one person to play. nobody likes to seem to be franklin d. roosevelt. deluxe is him to be normal and sub the kaos. you know,
9:19 pm
under his administration, the cdc said that anybody who's vaccinated shouldn't wear a mask, and then they did the hokey pokey and said no, no, you do have to wear a mass. they have said that boosters were not necessarily going to be thing and mandates, not going necessarily going to be a thing. and now we have both boosters and mandate. so if he goes back on this, it will, i think, a road, some of the confidence that biden came in with, remember, he was partly elected because he was the adult in the room. he was somebody for whom was a political veteran that would not see a new problem and therefore would be able to handle it better than the bull in the china shop that donald trump was. if he doesn't show com, even handed leadership on this, and i don't think he particularly has on this or many other things. then he's going to continue to see his approval rating a road like it is right now when it's under water, by nearly 10 points. the white house at odds with the states, the republicans taking on the democrats. so, democrats timing on each other and the facts rounding on the on faxed, like i said, for all those promises of healing. it looks like it's
9:20 pm
a long johnny to the united states, living up to its name. so there is still plenty of disagreement over enforcement of mandatory covert shots. and the reminder, the world health organization stresses that vaccinations and natural immunity are the only way out of the panoramic nicaraguan president daniel ortega bagged a 4th consecutive term and the countries general election over the weekend. securing more than 75 percent of the vote, according to preliminary results. road leaders, including joe biden, have widely condemned the pole as a sham pantomime election that was neither free nor fair. and most certainly not democratic. the ortega and maria family narrow nicaragua as autocrats, no different from the somoza family that ortega on the sand. the nest is fought for decades ago. dozens of leading opposition figures including 7 presidential hopefuls
9:21 pm
were detained ahead of the vote, the u. s. has threatened to impose sanctions and visa restrictions on the country where tega denies all of the allegations and has pointed the finger back at the u. s. e claims america helps organize anti government protests back in 2018 in which was in 300 people died. ah, oh oh, i've been norton assistant editor of independent news website. the gray zone told us washington is pursuing its own political interests. it's not about democracy, it's not about human rights. washington wants to overthrow the son, the niece, the government, and install a puppet regime, which will privatize all of nicaragua, state assets. will privatized the socialized health system and the socialized
9:22 pm
education system will sell off all of nicaragua, assets to us corporations, and will serve u. s. foreign policy interests by leaving the alba, the bull very in alliance. he talking point that nicaragua supposedly arrested, all of the opposition leaders is, is simply false. it's extremely misleading. there were 6 different opposition parties that participated in the november 7th elections. those opposition figures who are extremist, who, who planned a coup attempt to 2018. they were not actual candidates, they were not legal candidates, they never registered to be candidates. they're in prison right now, being investigated for crimes that are illegal in all of the world. every country of the in the world, including united states, has laws against conspiring with a foreign power, has laws against treason, has laws against cru plotting and has laws against money laundering. that's why these nicaraguan extremists were imprison. it's not because they were candidates, because they weren't candidates. the slee scandal that has embroiled the british
9:23 pm
government shows no signs of abating prime minister boys. johnson was absent from today's emergency session of parliament, citing prior engagements was called after his tory party voted to review lobbying rules rather than punish one of their own for breaking them. the head of the opposition party cure stammer did not pull any punches. last week the prime minister damaged himself, but most importantly, he damaged out democracy at mouth to die. he does not even have the decency to come here either to defend what he did or to apologize for his actions while all things of blame on now being directly pointed at boris johnson, the prime minister over these sleeves allegations for not only defending the former and p, o n practice and for his alleged role in all of this government corruption,
9:24 pm
but also by apparently trying to brush it all onto the carpet. in fact, some tory menaces have described as simply a storm and a tea cup. that's very much the argument being presented almost by boris johnson, the prime minister was hoping to allow, i'm and paxil to simply get away with a slap on the wrist. and today, he's even be accused of running scared because of course, forest johnson was simply nowhere to be seen in the house of commons. apparently he's far too busy, but that of course has been interpreted by many as simply not being important enough of an issue for the prime minister. in fact, there was ferocious attacks on the government and bars. johnson, specifically a to day from many m. p. 's, same parliament's reputation as being tarnished, and it's integrity is at stake. the actions of the government last week, half tarnished this house is reputation. we were not ruled by a prime minister, who was a 10 point dictator. and who is it himself,
9:25 pm
is now mired in sleep. the government has been playing the ridiculous game with the public trust. the government made a decision last week to do something which undermined trust and democracy at every level locally. and he shouldn't have to remind the government that being an m p 's a full time job chasing corporate cash is quite simply short. changing the public isn't the real concern that the government's attitude towards public appoint. yes, is straying away from the rules as overseen by the commission of a public appointments or politics. have been taken to a very pity in police. many people really feel that the tory government simply trying to change the rules when they don't really suit them. of course, it was all prompted by the case of the form and p. now, o and patterson. last week he was found to have broken the rules by being a paid consultant to at least 2 companies, paying him for more than a $100000.00 pounds a year. now just last week, the government try to block a 30 day suspension of the m p. and rip up the common disciplinary process entirely
9:26 pm
. instead though it you turned on all of that and as a result, patterson resign doesn't m p. but following that 247 tory m p 's voted to set up a new committee. but it's a bit more complicated than just setting up a body. what exactly are they going to be questioning? it's things like should n p's have 2nd jobs? what kind of jobs are they allowed to have? how much of course can they and, and also how do people end up with seats in the house of lords and who makes those decisions. and on what basis? because of course, this isn't the 1st time the tory party has been accused of giving corruption. the green light just take the pandemic. a for a stop has been those corona virus contracts, holidays not pro, properly being declared on the funding of number 10 refurbishment. that's just to name a very few. so today is really want to prove that the current system needs to be
9:27 pm
reformed. and the m. p. 's ultimately should not be making up their own rules as they go along. iraq's prime minister claims he knows who tried to kill him and has pledged to expose the culprits. on sunday, several drugs bomb to the premier's residence in baghdad. the security has been ramped up with helicopters flying over the capital and army vehicles deployed on the streets. extra forces have also been sent to the green zone, where the prime minister's residence is located here. some of the damage left by the drone bombing, which come came days after deadly rights condemning the parliamentary election, hardly denounced as rigged. 7 security guards were wounded in the drone incident, which the interior ministry called a terrorist attack. however, the opposition is suggesting may have been a provocation by the government to justify a crackdown. united states was the 1st country to condemn the alleged attempt on the pm's life at a time with the remaining american combat forces are leaving iraq. r t secret dawn
9:28 pm
of comments. now on the parallels between what is unfolding and iraq and what played out in afghanistan. there's riots, there's tear gas, there's live gunfire. iraq continues it's descent into security chaos. following the latest parliamentary vote ah, iraq's intelligence headquarters is shelled. it's pro american prime minister is targeted by a grown assassination attempt. this is what's left over his home in the most secure haven of baghdad. the attempt that got washington very anxious. we are following the reports of drone attack. this apparent act of terrorism which was strongly condemn, was directed at the heart of the rock estate. our commitment to our iraqi partners is unshakable, the another se cents with the government,
9:29 pm
and people for rock. all this just over a month since america started to withdraw its combat forces from the country. and the pullout has already vote some morbid flashbacks in the white house. to this day, the withdrawal from afghanistan is tanking jo biden's political school. yet the president found no better time to embark on a similar mission just in iraq. i think things are going well or role in iraq is just to be available to continue to train to assist to help them to deal with isis . whereas right. but we are not going to be brought in here. and america's relationship with the rock has been eerily similar to the one with afghanistan. security forces, fully equipped and trained by american specialists, pro washington leadership, a whole generation of locals who don't remember their lives without us forces in
9:30 pm
the country. forces that invaded under the pretext of hunting down bad guys. all these statements apply perfectly to both of gaston and iraq countries turned by the us into test sites for its nation's building ambitions. our mission in iraq is clear, were hunting down the terrace. we're helping iraqis build a free nation. that is an ally in the war on terror. we know the true piece will only be achieved when we give the afghan people the mange, to achieve their own aspirations. piece piece will be achieved by helping afghanistan develop its own stable government. osama bin laden escaped american bounty hunters by adding to pakistan. the infamous anthro exclaims, and saddam hussein's links to the.
