ah ah, was accounted until guy, so deployed by poland as it continues to resist attempts by migrant, the storm, the water from barrows in order to reach to europe in union. the russian defense ministry slammed the u. s. as hypocritical off to washington criticized moscow, protesting a weapon in space when it's done exactly the same. while nobody likes to pay more, on average, we have the money to do sol. as mainstream us meter outlets repeatedly claim that americans are better off on the joe biden, despite inflation in 31 year record. citizens respond. we have to buy food and do things like different ways. i don't think you save money. i
1:01 pm
definitely philly and facia and have more so on food. i think a lot of people are out of work and now they're spending their savings just to stay alive. and the regional government, australia, res, on course, to get sweeping new powers in a pandemic will despite last ditch amendments and a public outcry. ah oh, from oscar, thanks for joining us. the northern auto international m daniel hawkins. robbie was this evening. welcome to the program. a poland has used water cannon and t, a gas and attempt to hold back a surge of migrants trying to make it across the border from belarus. warsaw, as it's expecting the situation to continue to potentially months. let's look at what's been playing out on the frontier over the past few hours. ah.
1:02 pm
with basically what the migrants are doing, they are throwing whatever rubbish they can find as well as logs at the police look over there. they are throwing rocks and they're trying to dismantle that part of the barbed wire. i guess you can see them using purpose grades, military grade. so okay, we have to move out when you back up and go back to safety. so we will keep the broadcast. we'll keep showing in. c maybe we'll move behind the 1st fence that they have, that they have already dismantled and you can see people quickly to retreat from over there. now they have brought a water cannon. i think they,
1:03 pm
they're bringing 2 water cat. okay. we have to move out. this is the sound and you can see more tear gas more tear gas canisters being used against the migrants here . and i, we can hear the approach of a military helicopter. it is a polish military helicopter. this has been used a as surveillance on behalf of the polish side. so you know, getting a birds eye view on the, you know, on the location of all the migrants and also it, it is used as a scare tactics. it looks like part of a fence, part of offense is almost down so. so the polish, the polish border patrol, the polish military police, they have been they have been manning that section of the fence more extensively than others. and there's also another water cannon. now helping out from over there, you can see, you know, arching an arc, being a spray of tear gas from a badly check point where the boarding check point is where we are right now is, is, is we can get to the void a check point where the,
1:04 pm
the majority of the action is going on right now. you can see a group of most active people pelting, pelting the, pelting them with the military police to polish military police, with rocks. now, that's why it's, it's quite interesting. where are they getting the rocks from now? because for example, if you look over there, there's a group of migrants. they are getting the rocks and providing their compatriots and providing other riots, migrants writing migrants with ammunition. this is what they're doing. and we've just been purpose sprayed. i'm afraid this is what happens when this is what happens when you when you look this close to the action. it is, it is getting in the eyes that is getting everywhere. so following today's failed attempt to storm the pole is board and dozens of migrants have expressed their desire to well go home. so all of them have now been taken here. this is normally a logistics center on the border, which used to all sorts out the good to work for that kind of stuff. now it has
1:05 pm
been re purpose and re facilitated by the bell russian authorities into this temporary shelter place for the people. for the most vulnerable, the main goal of this place is to have women and children in the 1st place. i lived somewhere within humane conditions because right now, you know this roof that the roof over there has it's already massive improvement compared to how they had to live out that in the camps. they have, they have blankets, look at this, they have blankets, they will have home food or people who come here. they give out. they give out, you know, you know, food drinks and so on. they will have all the food which is especially important, i think for the 1st time i can, i can see what all these people are wearing underneath their overcoat. because normally they would put as much clothes as they can out there in the wilderness and what will happen to them. next is essentially the veteran authorities. they will go
1:06 pm
on an established the identities of every single person here. because right now, many of them not even have their id, do not have their passports on them. and so they will try and identify every single one of them figure out how the money situation is individually and whether or not they can, for example, of food to take it back home. if they do, they will be able to leave home. this is their design, this is why did come here, and if they don't, well i guess they will have to figure out something else by they, i mean the other option authorities and see how they will be able to will to port them. essentially just get back home and get back to the countries where they came from, like rock syria, malia and so on. the polish border force is also said, gods have been authorized to use weapons without hesitation, if necessary. that is, for the number of children being among the migrants, somewhat were filmed, begging for poland to let them in. i
1:07 pm
own the west. the keys has been a race of deliberately fondling migrants from the middle east into the area. a claimant denies. oh for us and you are preparing new sanctions while rushes chris, i, poland for using tear gas and weapons against people stuck at the border partners, actions that absolutely unacceptable still tear gas water cannon shots fired over the heads of migrants towards bella rouge. this reflects a desire to hide their actions. they cannot understand that they are violating every conceivable norm of international humanitarian law. but our earlier walnut sanctions, when it was little inclined to stop people trying to cross the border lot and built . so who represents germany's left party in hamburg. parliament says for a minute for the crisis isn't going to solve it. first, we have to say that poland causes abusing and contradicting international law. there's no law conventions to protect refugees,
1:08 pm
and this is and the effect the route you want to have the solution. you have to think that you have to stop the aggression against the software and the to your people in the middle east and in north africa. and with that, i give those people the possibility to have countries who stabilize step by step rules, refugees crisis no to sanction center for all the blame. that's not the way. of course. it will be good to have negotiations in between the union and values before before to be in the union accepts the similar and if your country doesn't matter if it's a always counting the election results. this is not a way to stablish international relations which are true. so that has to be changed. another country that's dealing with
1:09 pm
a new influx of migrants is iran. people have and fleeing there from neighboring afghanistan. and since the taliban took control of the country, international aid organizations though, have actually cut refugee age to surround something. the u. n. s condemned non profit organization being a week. refugee council says 45000 people have been crossing from. i began to start into iran every day since the sun amount to cover it states that amounts to 300000 refugees on top of the large number of displaced people already in the country. the group recently visited migrant camps there to monitor the conditions. people are living in layla, my thought was among the delegations. she says it runs in urgent need of international aid. i was there, we spoke to several families who have been on the ground for a very long time in iran. and they all say that every family member, they speak with back in afghanistan in cobble and elsewhere in the country. all tell them the same thing that they're on the way to the border. they're trying to find a way out there trying to get into iran because it's become absolutely hopeless to
1:10 pm
live in afghanistan in much due to the economic collapse in the country. and those families be spoke to say that, you know, they have so little already to share among so many. and they worry that unless the international community 1000 give more storage to neighboring countries of, of gas than there will simply not be enough to just port every one with their basic needs. this is in a context where iran itself has economic challenges as a result of sanctions and, and coven, 19 general. there has not been adequate attention to the situation in the neighboring countries of afghan has done. it is always the neighboring countries that shoulder, that major responsibility when there's a massive reggie flown. it's remarkable that iran is able to absorb 40025000 refugees coming from has gone on every day. and yet, europe is not able to deal with the 4000 or a few 1000 refugees at the polish border. but it's also equally unfortunate and outrageous that the beller as authorities are using refugees as
1:11 pm
a tactic to win an international geopolitical game. a war of words is broken up between russia and the us over military activity in orbits. this comes off to washington accused. moscow of pudding, me that i shall aspire, they should endanger while conducting an anti satellite weapons test. russia responded by stating the u. s. was bringing up a critical nodding. washington has been formal reckless in spice. earlier, my colleagues o'neill discuss the latest developments with ortiz donald quarter. there's been a lot of speculation and there still is really as to what exactly caused this debris generating event. and unsurprisingly, washington was quick to point the finger at russia. actually, the russian defense ministry has since reacted to that pointing to new of plans for space operations that the u. s. military had made back in 2020. so for russia, this whole situation seems a bit hypocritical. the russian defense ministry considers hypocritical statements by representatives of the state department and the pentagon,
1:12 pm
who try to accused the russian federation of crating risks for astronauts of the international space station in ton, the pentagon, both before these official steps and even more so after is actively developing and testing the latest strike combat weapons of various types in orbit without any notification. don't take us through than what led to this war of words or up thing? well, whatever this debris generating event was, it was enough to warrant the crew of the international space station to take safety measures against a possible collision. luckily, nothing was damaged, nobody was hurt, but the u. s. to state the u. s. state department, almost immediately after accused russia of launching a direct ascent missile to destroy a satellite in orbit, which they say caused the danger on the i assess washington called it a dangerous and irresponsible behavior. the russian federation recklessly conducted a destructive satellite test of a direct ascent, an anti satellite missile against one of its own satellites. rushes dangerous and
1:13 pm
irresponsible behavior jeopardizes the long term sustainability of our outer space . and clearly demonstrates that russia's claims of opposing the weapons and weapon ization of space are disingenuous and hypocritical. nato made its own statement backing up some of the earlier accusations made by washington. but as the russian defense ministry said, the u. s. has its own types of similar tests in orbit, and there's no outcry about those. and we also still don't know what exactly launched to this debris into the path of the i assess so hardly a time for finger pointing america. soaring, inflation is expected to spike further on the back of our 2 trillion dollars spending plan approved. but president boynton, for us is arising at the highest right in 31 years is hitting people hauled in. the pockets on every will know is worried though much of the u. s. media thinks everything's on the control. well, let's take a look at this recently deleted tweet from amazon receive the which you can claim
1:14 pm
soaring prices are not such a bad thing. now that of course, prompted people to take the social media and offer their response to that suggestion. people have been able to have fun, groceries is a good saying. well, i antics oliver. more, more on selling us more money coming out of our pocket is a good thing. no reason will ever make a reasonable person say, inflation is a good thing. amazon dessy believes inflation is a good thing that i will wallace and curse is disagree. while m. s a m s m a c, followed up with another tweet sang at least one at misrepresented the article. it was linking to the idea though that so soren course saw an overall good thing, and the president boynton at least, has gain traction in the media. kellum open asked new yorkers if they agree, whether it's mel for gasoline, the prices of every day commodities are rising. american families are being squeezed now, more than ever, some voices in mainstream media,
1:15 pm
se the solution is pretty simple. stop complaining and deal with it. and the dirty little secret here, willi, well, nobody likes to pay more. on average, we have the money to do sol, household savings had a record high over the pandemic. we didn't really have anywhere to go out and spend according to m. s n b c house, stephanie rule, household savings hit a record high during the pandemic. we didn't have anywhere to go out and spend. we decided to put that theory to the test. people save us have gone of no, no, i don't think so because things are more expensive and we have to buy food and do things like different ways. i don't think you save money, especially way transportation and everything. i definitely feel ian facia and have more so on food. you notice the difference like in proteins and just in general, softly wording. i don't know too much. not a great financial guy, but extern says the economy is a little bit. we're in some areas. i think a lot of people are out of work are spending their savings just to stay alive, honestly. yeah. what about all the people lost their job? a lot of those people are definitely spending their savings,
1:16 pm
myself included. what rules theory ignores is that sense? the pandemic, many americans have lost their jobs or seen a significant decrease in their incomes. the federal reserve is warning that inflation won't be stopping any time soon and that we should be expecting rising prices for at least the next few months. food banks across the country have never been busier. hit with demand from desperate americans who are hit by the double whammy of rising prices amid a supply chain crisis. i would say that in our county, specifically, we've seen a dramatic increase in food insecurity. we've had to make a lot of really tough choices. and so one of the things that we're always trying to reiterates is that we're still in the midst of a disaster. meanwhile, the spectre of rising taxes hangs over many americans, biden promises that he will only raise taxes on the altar wealthy. however, the tax policy center says that many middle class households could be affected. republicans say that biden's build back better plan for increasing spending will
1:17 pm
make things worse, joe biden, and comma le harris and the rest of the administration. they don't care. they want you not to be able to fulfill up gas in your car. they want your electricity bill to be higher, they want your heating bill to be higher. of course it doesn't impact them. according to a recent poll, 70 percent of americans are dismayed by the current economic situation, while 50 percent blame biden for soaring inflation. not surprisingly, biden's, popularity has taken a knock. now 51 percent of voters say they favor the g o. p. giving republicans the highest lead facing the mid term in decades. biden promised to rescue the country from a crisis that he blamed on donald trump. however, over the past few months, things don't really seem to have improved with the country financially squeezed. this could mean a big turn around when it comes to the mid terms. kayla martin r t new york. or this oldest comes at the time of closing trust in the mainstream

1:19 pm
some of those with dares sinks, we dare to ask oh, welcome back. authorities illustrated and stated victoria are expected to get sweeping new powers under a fiercely contested pandemic bill despite loss but it changes and public fury. i oh, on monday nights, thousands of protest is camped outside the state, parliament in melbourne, venting their anger over the draft legislation in response to government move down
1:20 pm
essentially in a bid to get the bill through the upper house, the key concessions that it finds for cobit rubric is happening, load threshold for declaring a pandemic has been raised on the right to protest is protected, that all allows or follows rather weeks of public unrest. victoria premier has defended the bill saying it's about keeping people safe and that includes safeguards to prevent abuse of power in while a top health official and another australian states. queensland has issued a warning to people who refused cope with shots. you said vaccine hesitant citizens could effectively be banished from society. call the cries, not get back side, lawful the miserable without being facts added. it's got to be very hard to maintain your employment if you're not vaccinated or you won't be able to go anyway . free entertainment. australia has an 83 percent co vaccination rates, while queensland is also high, it's 70 percent. despite reaching international herd immunity targets australia's
1:21 pm
seeking to rush up the pressure on the on vaccinated. we spoke earlier to professor of the p. o energy, catherine bennett, who's in the victoria state capital of melbourne. if the new bill there is the right response to the disease, part of the reason they argue that i'm having a pandemic bill was going to be important was that it would allow some of the decision making processes to become more transparent actually. but there was concern that when it came back that it didn't actually have some of the oversight automatically written in that would ensure that this was going to happen in that way. so it's really important the changes we've seen in the last 24 hours. i think a key changes to help achieve what they plan to achieve that without risking giving so much authority to someone who, who also is the person who calls whether or not they need to consult with people. and what we're saying is they're trying to make the point that you need to get vaccinated, said just drawing a very hard line and trying to encourage people to vaccinate. but i think there's,
1:22 pm
there is of the epidemiological argument to the course keeping unvaccinated paper locked out for the longer term. it just doesn't make sense because the risk differential is, is, is very small. if you have such a small proportion of the adult population who are unvaccinated americans trust and a mass media has slumped to its lowest level since 2016 is taking a toll on mainstream tv networks with cnn. seeing its primetime view and i'm was plummet by almost 50 percent over the past year. and he's danny armstrong picks up the story. trust they say it takes years earn and only seconds to break and for ever to repair. for us mean she media though seconds have turned into months of nose diving viewing figures amid a crisis of confidence on saturday, eights hop. see an ann report to ridicule reports of supply chain disruptions by taking a pop at average. joe, the supply chain, she exclaims,
1:23 pm
looking for milk for 2 year old look at this amazing overflowing abundance. he responds such contempt from u. s. media for the current difficulties faced by so many has led to wide spread condemnation. with many americans bemoaning and out of touch media, the is alienating its own audience. i don't see a thing, therefore this thing must not exist. this person calls himself a journalist. can't wait to hear a 3rd person commentary on gas prices. everything's fine in my bubble of reality. his milk is 300 percent the price. it was 2 years ago, but wages have only gone to 3 percent, and inflation is outpacing growth. abundance doesn't help or so please rename your show to literally anything that doesn't have the word reliable in it. it's false advertising. so the chasm in communication between the public and the press is widening major channels like m s, n, b, c, and c,
1:24 pm
n n. have seen their respective prime time spot nosedive by just under half of this whole tool viewership. but it's not just the democrat liberal media that's losing touch with its base. fox news viewership is down a 3rd from the same period just a year earlier. now back then, the media consistently found ratings. thanks largely to donald trump, but in a biden era that's all changed. not so long ago, buzzfeed learned the hard way about dwindling audiences when the company laid off a 3rd of its staff. but not only both feed old u. s. traditional media have faced the year on year decline. just let the 10s of thousands of media jobs being white out, the media. so to announce the highest job cuts on record in 2020 this industry, which includes television and movie production, news and advertising, and as $30711.00 cuts. this is 201 percent higher than the 10201 cuts announcing the sector in 2019. and well traditional media continues to report an agenda rather
1:25 pm
than covering issues at the heart of society that trust. whereas ever thinner and ratings plunge ever further, perhaps by raining in their reporting by is just a little mainstream. media won't just be doing their view as a favor, but also themselves as well. are we spoke the journalist try to look more, he thinks there's a growing rift between what americans want to see on their t. v screens and what they're actually being shown. i don't think that the trust can be gained. i think that so many people feel so burned in the steed, misled by media. how do you forgive that? when you see just how corrupt they are and how much they think they're healed in and continue to do their fields and to their bias and their spin and their hatred of conservative republicans of average americans. it just be the problem that don't interest them. they're interested in climate change, they're interested in race conspiracy theories. and they can help impose report on that. i think that's also responsible for the, the tainted ratings and the ever increasing divide between the people who deliver
1:26 pm
the news and the people they hope consume it. and the average people who. ready are just tuning out and they're not interested in what these people have to say. they don't speak to them. so it's gonna help us live here in moscow. boom bust heading away in just a few weeks time with a team and i will return in half an hour with the latest headlines. join us again on the international. ah, ah, the join me every thursday on the alex simon show. and i'll be speaking to guess in the world, the politics sport, business. i'm show business. i'll see you then me we're allowing ourselves to be more efficient or quicker with our transactions. but
1:27 pm
with that comes a trade off. every device is a potential entry point for security attack any machine because it's an extension of traditional time. the defenders have always been one step behind the attackers, both permit when there's one comes up in the offering. it's not a matter of, if it happens it's a matter of went oh, is your media reflection of reality? in the world transformed what will make you feel safe? isolation, whole community? are you going the right way or are you being that somewhere? direct?
1:28 pm
what is true? what is great? in the world corrupted, you need to descend a join us in the depths or remain in the shallows. for new york, it's really what america is about. when our mayor took our place, he was elected because of his campaign on our city, being a tale of 2 cities, the haves and i have not those who have not are usually the ones who weren't being buried on holiday. the city has always wanted to forget. i wanted to forget about the people who are buried there. just wanted to forget about the fact
1:29 pm
that there is a potters field that there was a place where difficult stories are hidden. the fact that we're using inmates to maintain this active burial site, where 1000000 souls are buried, where so much of new york city history is buried, is payment of inequality that has existed in this city for centuries. ah ah, with miss with this is boon bought the one bedroom show you care the for dement down, brenda boring, washington coming up there of the supply chain disruption will take
