7:02 am
. something we have never seen before. we, while in the state of illinois scores of work is there. a company trapped inside an amazon warehouse after its roof collapsed when it was hit by a tornado local media. and i reporting that some workers have been transported from that warehouse up to a 100 people were inside the building at the time, according to authorities. although there were no reports of any debts and then enabling arkansas, it is believed that one person has killed him 5 seriously injured after the same storm. damage to nursing home there at least 20 others were trapped inside that building. severe weather has also claimed 3 lives in tennessee, of course will bring you more details as they come in. now a dark day for journalism, that's how supporters of june assange have reacted to the british high court ruling that the wikileaks founder can be expedited to the u. s. washington, when it's appeal against her previous decision blocking,
7:03 am
aside from being sent to america to face trial on charges of espionage campaign is slammed. the latest ruling, which was handed down on the you ends, human rights day. we condemned today's u. k. high court decision to allow the expedition of julius on so the u. s. which will prove historic for all the wrong reasons. we fully believe that julian assigned has been targeted for his contributions to journalism. i now the now will people gathered in front of the court condemning the decision? previously, a lower court had blocked the songs at exposition over concerns about his mental health, but it was ruled yesterday that was no longer a concern. after us gave assurances he would not serve any sentence in a maximum security prison or solitary confinement. it's on just always though describe those play jesus vague and reliable. the fiance of the weekly expand maiden emotional statement following the announcement. for how long can this go on
7:04 am
today is international human rights day? what a shame, how cynical, how this decision on this day to have one of the foremost the foremost publisher journalists of the past, 50 years in the u. k. prison. accuse of publishing the truth about or crimes about the i killed teams. okay. what, here's how we reached this point in 2019 june songs with forcefully removed by british police from equity embassy in london. after the country terminated the 7 years silent. he had sought refuge following sexual assault allegations were sweden, which were later dropped. the british authorities arrested him on a separate charge of jumping bail. america wants the weekly founder extradited on
7:05 am
claims of conspiring to high government computers. and also publishing classified material was we spoke with an essay whistleblower william binnie about the case and also with rafael korea, the former president of that could all whose administration gave assange political asylum according to what a gift to london court gave to the united states on the human rights day. that's grim irony on human rights stated the rights of the journalist are blatantly violated and his sin was telling the truth. if a sancha revealed the secrets of china, russia, or left wing latin american governments such as mine, he would be applauded by the mainstream media 100 in the united states congress and the cape parliament. but as he went against the had you money of the united states, you was called a criminal. the press is quite looks the other way or even supports described down on their colleagues. i mean, it's completely incomprehensible. it could be understood if it was secret information about the location of troops or intelligence facilities. but we're
7:06 am
talking about war crafts. this cannot be a state secret. the world has to know about them. there must be transparency. that's what assange did. so that's why he's being punished of the world has really turned upside down. and what we see now is blatant hypocrisy. it really both bad for freedom and democracy around the world, publishing data and violation of the espionage that we're now that the united states law is not a, a world wide law is not in law in other countries. so there's a real problem with this to, to brain court ruling on that issue of the, of the espionage ack. suspending 1st amendment rights. they said it was justified in time of war blot. well, i was when i were not in the war. now, congress is not declared war. we have no declared war. why are they indicted? the a senior editors at least of the, of the guardian, the new york times the washington post. all them who have also published this kind
7:07 am
of material. why aren't they doing that? that's a violation of our laws. they're not equally applying the law. when was the last time you had a verifiable truth from the united states government that they put out to the public? when, when can you just divide from through other sources and means and methods? the validity of what they've been telling you, you can't, they've lied, they lie to congress directly. they get caught lying and they just ignore it. nobody does anything. i mean, they're exempt from the own laws that they pass. that, that's why we have here in the united states, 2 sets of laws, one for those of the people and the rest. and those in power have a different set of lot. but it hasn't gone unnoticed at the extradition ruling against giving assange did come. not only on human rights day, but also on the same day. the u. s. wrapped up pace multinational summit for democracy at which president biden did push for people to be able to breathe freely . while after that he was sing criticized for not applying the same principles, to cheering assange. and as we close out the 1st gathering, let's let,
7:08 am
let us together reaffirm our determination. if the future will belong to rose, will embrace human dignity. not those who travel. one wish to potential, other people aren't those who stifle and who gives people the ability to breathe free. not those who seek the suffocated people with a liar hair. this shameful verdict, in a political case against a journalistic and public figure is another manifestation of the cannibalistic world view of the anglo saxon tandem. the west marks international human rights day and the end of the summit for democracy with dignity. this news is devastating. the persecution of julian a sondors, the disgrace. meanwhile, biden is holding his cynical democracy summit and the hypocrisy and the cruelty. now, while the u. s. is busy then promoting democracy in other countries, his own that seems to be at risk because a stock home based thing tanks, annual review of democracies around the world has for the 1st time put the u. s. in
7:09 am
the back sliding category, assange freedom campaigner john re says that supporting democracy in other countries doesn't mean that the u. s. is doing the same at how i think it's remarkable that so especially on human rights day that the judges in this case really should have found that it would be safe to extradite julian assigned to the country arm where it security services sleep. cia has previously been threatening to kidnap all kill him. the problem with many modern states. they're all for a democracy and freedom of speech and a free press in other people's countries, but not necessarily in their own. and until we get past that hypocrisy and understand, but freedom of the press is a universal human right? because it's part of freedom of speech. we will be making very much progress. now another news her attention to the ukraine are running high with russia,
7:10 am
slamming the wes feeling. the escalation and voicing concern at ne tase actions in the region. oscar has warned that they could potentially lead to a large scale conflict. a course has been set to draw ukraine into nato. such irresponsible behavior is an unacceptable threat to our security provoking serious risks for all parties involved up to a large scale conflict in europe. while the u. s. did reveal on thursday that 30 champion anti tank miss our systems were delivered to ukraine in october. as part of a $60000000.00 military aid package into further $200000000.00 could be donated. at the same time, russia is being urged to respect borders by both nato and the year military build up in and around ukraine, this racist tensions undermined security in europe. we call on russia to return to diplomacy and to the escalate the about. and we expect russia did the
7:11 am
escalade and refrained from any aggression towards his neighbors and respect the rights of sovereign states. later, when it does come after a ukrainian navy ship named don bass did approach russian waters without authorization on thursday, a move that russia regarded as a threat to the navigational safety of other vessels in the area crane denied they all allegations and insisted that the ship was an unarmed search and rescue vessel that never entered restricted waters opposed any threat. the vessel did eventually change course that give you a more perspective on what's happening. the sad east and ukraine region of don bass has been making. the headline says 2014 when war broke out there, the unrest is become a seat of discord between care and moscow. i discuss the situation further with our senior correspondent, motor gasket, a, some background to all of this. i mean, this latest incident does come against the backdrop of
7:12 am
a rapid escalation has no intentions in recent weeks between ukraine m. russia, well, an escalation both rhetorically. we would, we have seen this hysteria reach fever pitch about the situation over ukraine, about potential plans to invaders, some countries say, but the situation on the ground in ukraine is perhaps, worst of all because that is where people are dying. people are dying. people are suffering. people are going through through hell and have been going through hell for many years that we have. we have seen the united states, specifically pumping weapons into ukraine for the ukrainian military. and these are weapons b, b, b, they a javelin miss are supplied by the united states or by dr. drones supplied by turkey. these are weapons that are flowing into you credit and immediately going to the conflicts of where the civil war is being fought. and the east of ukraine, there are more than 2000000 civilians. are trapped in the conflict soon in east the
7:13 am
new grade. and they're just having to brave without people going to sending their kids to school. they will have to worry about a tang chill or a mortar round landing. they're on the grounds of the school. vladimir putin is like and what is happening to a walker sort of. so she, i should say that risk for me as the 1st step towards genocide, what's going on and on bass now very much resembles genocide. we see it and we know about it. the western narrative on this is potential rush and aggression. amassing its shapes within its own borders on the edge we with the crane, but very little said about ukraine's actions in recent weeks. or we hear about is these potential plans emanating from the she i the white house, the british government. these plans that no one previously knew about that russia was planning to invade. a huge area of ukraine does unclear how they would be able to achieve this with, with, even if we believe the c i and others with,
7:14 am
with such a small force. but let's look at what is happening again on the ground. you have the o. s. c, that reporting on sees for violation. so their work is constant and round the clock . ukrainian artillery enforces destroyed or damaged 5 times more civilian infrastructure at schools at workplace as people's homes. 5 times more infrastructure was destroyed and damaged by ukrainian forces, the vice versa. you also have the situation in which ukraine still still 6 years on, refuses to negotiate with the breakaway republic. aside from that, there are also all manner of promises and assurances that ukraine keeps on hearing from, from britain, from the united states that they've got their back, that thou help them, that they'll keep the russians awake. and what i, what that does is it emboldens you credit. and unfortunately, the situation is such that aside from very one sided coverage, you have
7:15 am
a situation in which piece simply isn't desirable. jettisoned author thomas fast spend a told a student there is a real risk in his opinion of the full scale european war there is so something that has not been here for decades. that is of the perspective, the real perspective or for a major european war. so he and now the key for a potential war in europe lies now 100 percent with the key of government. if key, if decides to provoke a russian invasion and that there will be a russian invasion as soon as key of starts a major offensive against the break of a republics, in that case, automatically. busy the blank check will be full of. busy western support for the ukrainian side. so the western narrative says that whatever crimea, or whatever a key if does to reclaim or even re conquer are the brake away. republics,
7:16 am
or even crimea would be executing their sovereign rights on their sovereign territory. and we should hope that both the washington and moscow and of course, are all to also paris and berlin. understand that there is a real risk of a european war here. rush nothings to let the, the sad news from african shop is at the moment of prices, search 2040 year high or full war back in spiraling inflation just off the brand and, ah, hello, driven by dreamer shaped bankers and those with
7:18 am
american billionaire has been forced to surrender stolen antiquities that he had been hoarding for decades. the case of hedge fund pioneer miko steinhardt has shocked archeologists and historians around the world. and his collection of plundered art is estimates to be worth something like $70000000.00. okay, well let's have a quick look then at some of the precious items we're talking about many which were stolen and illegally smuggled. and one is the stikes had brightened, crafted in the 5th century b. c. today's valley that something like 3 and a half $1000000.00. another, a rare masterpiece, was that the la max, a small chest schuman remains with an impressive price, i guess something like $1000000.00. and then also among them are a set of death masks, dating back to 7000 b. c was signed, hart gave up the treasures as part of a deal, which does mean though he will not face criminal charges. the origins of the looted
7:19 am
antiquity stretch across the 11 countries. among them, italy, greece and israel, or robbed of their cultural heritage. experts say that the damage inflicted is immeasurable to stubs has been done to the countries of origin, sociological sites. the main damage is cultural in the sense that we are losing the history of his objects out of common set of past. and this is the, the biggest can i am that it is being performed by looting on the global level, the loss of history, the loss of information when the only hardship for michael steinhardt was a lifetime ban on acquiring any other relics from the future. as public as rachel, that with most respondents to a poll, insisting he's got a way to like the justice system in the us was constructed primarily for 2 reasons. punish the poor, protect the wealthy,
7:20 am
know jail for the rich and powerful. this country has been sold to the highest bidders, our country's legal system, as a joke, stolen 70000000 in art, and no jail time. i remember a guy in louisiana getting 40 years in prison for stealing a loaf of bread because he was starving. there is no justice if you're rich, i'm sort of on that will be unsafe to pick up the case again, my preference would have been to be pressed saturdays and having possibly a conviction as well. i'm not very happy about the final result. it has demonstrated very clearly that michael stein knew that there were serious problems with the provenance, the collective study that these of the objects he was acquiring, or at least should come had that a very strong indications about the possibility of being looted
7:21 am
his objects. how america is in the grip of surging inflation at the moment, not seen since the $980.00 prices rising across many sectors for 6 months in a row. in november, prices for us, consumers jump nearly 7 percent compared with just $1.00, a year ago, triggered by the current of ours pandemic, inflation has hit pretty much everything from food and energy to hives, rentals, and cows. but the u. s. federal reserve is still hesitant to take serious action to curb, despite such as raising interest rates. economists, these royal told us that higher inflation though, does drive people to take on that. there is a view that low low level inflation is, is good to be economy. i'm not sure i subscribe to that, but certainly the kind of inflation we're seeing now is very pernicious and it breaks down. it is many aspects of the economy in many ways. see the pandemic, or rather the central begging response to the panoramic is the main factor that's
7:22 am
getting in place right now. last year, the federal reserve increased the years. one is our supply by between 30 and 40 percent, and the root cause inflation is lots of money. jason, to say were fewer goods and services. so that's the main one that is going to try to lift interest rates to, to tap down this question. but they can't do they stop to open market bond purchases? nape said they won't stop that until april or may of next year. so give me a while. this employees may get a bit higher before they're able to do that. they don't even really benefit from high inflation systematically or creditors, because if you take debt and inflation rises, you wind up paying off that debt in cheaper, which is a mess, less valuable currency, whether it's dollars or pounds or whatever. so in a sense, hires inflation rather promotes higher levels of debt, which is also a bad thing. but anger over president bind handling of the economy isn't bad needs for everybody. because i'm putting entrepreneur in the state of massachusetts is turning the dislike into dollars and has opened
7:23 am
a shop selling some unique anti biden merchandise. the owner says his customers do feel deeply unhappy with what's going on with our economy. mm. mm. mm. mm. mm. mm. mm. mm mm mm mm mm mm. mm. mm. mm. mm. mm. mm. mm. mm. mm. mm. mm. mm. mm. mm. mm. mm. yeah, i bought this hat. i bought this really cool that i got some other things in the office making a really good quality, affordable. still granted a dollar a a
7:24 am
oh oh oh and i think it's fantastic. i've run out of town and i am good with absolutely job. i'm glad that people are satisfied with people. most surprises for them. i know that people have always had different views, but this is not about the division. this is about unhappiness with our president and what's going on in our country. there are some liberals that are definitely on
7:25 am
board unhappiness that they have with our leader right now. our president is not doing what he said he was going to do and what the people want. and there's a lot of different major topics that are issues with our president people, which she had to get in the, in the stand. and you know, colleges high school seems to be, it seemed to be catching on really well in our customers because we had some new england patrol stores. our customers are asking for it. so we started carrying it and it went over. it was taking up 80 percent of our sales. so i said, let's just do a theme store, just let's go brandon. and that's how we started. i will spot store and his view there that it's all about having different opinions posed to tell us a different story because it does to not that for some in the us, your voting choice may actually be a good reason not to date you or even talk to you not to contribute to lauren chen
7:26 am
reveals who's selling the division today. the progressive left and really democrats in general, loved to think of themselves as the party of tolerance, openness, acceptance, and just in general, good things, sunshine and rainbows. and so predictably, when it comes to discussing polarization in america, or who exactly is responsible for increasing harsh political sentiments, it's very easy for people on the left to point the finger at their conservative counterparts. i mean, clearly the political environment is getting more and more hostile and if the left stands for all of these positive. 7 things then it must stand to reason that the right is behind all of the bad things. but now one poll which asked respondents whether they would be willing to engage in different types of relationships, both personal and professional, with people who voted for a different presidential candidate than they did. 31 percent of republican said no compared to a whopping 71 percent of democrats, who said that they would not go out on
7:27 am
a date with someone who had voted for the opposing party. even when we look at less personal relationships. the divide between who democrats and republicans are or are not willing to engage with remains pretty stark. when asked whether they would shop at or support a business of someone who voted for the opposing presidential candidate. only 7 percent of republicans said no compared to 41 percent of democrats. so essentially, democrats may very well believe that they aren't the ones driving division. they are simply standing up to the unacceptable behavior and views that are displayed amongst republicans. well, that is an interesting theory, but to that i have another survey that once more leads democrats holding the short end of the stick in his book, the righteous mind, social psychologist jonathan. hi, did some very illuminating research into how different people perceive opposing political parties. the results were clear and consistent moderates and conservatives were most accurate in their predictions, whether they were pretending to be liberals or conservatives. liberals were the least accurate, especially those who described themselves as very liberal. and i continued to note
7:28 am
that the biggest errors in the whole study came one liberals answered the care and fairness nations while pretending to be conservative. so ultimately, yes, political division in america is very real and much of it is being driven by democrats and people on the left. and what is so frustrating about all of this? no one should be forced to associate with someone that they really don't want to. but if you are choosing to cut ties with someone over political differences, in my opinion, the least you could do is make certain that those political differences are in fact real party contrib to lauren chin. this iowa, as i think, looking so far this saturday, we'll have more stories for you in about 30 minutes. ah, ah.

but overwhelmed by information. can we distinguish the real science from the one being imposed upon us? we are living in a world where there are many people who have a vested interest in fighting information, fighting scientific evidence, and discrediting even the notion that science could provide. the truth about the natural world in the pursuit of business goes large corporations, a challenge strongly by scientific evidence. if you are emotionally invested and free markets, them climate change is a serious emotional threat because dealing with that means we have to change our approach to business industries or on the war bond attempting to debunk legitimate science by producing new evidence. it's ion slighting science. that's how need nuances manufactured their attention only seeking to the rail science rolling using cy, shell.
