i tonia take longer than that, then it is really turned upside down and what we see now is blade and we like longer. when was the last time you had a verifiable truth from the united states government that they put out to the public. it's being called a dark day for journalism julian assange supporters lash out at the london hi court ruling to allow his possible extradition to the united states. yet another hearing is now needed to decide his fate. we call on russia to return to diplomacy onto the escalate. the west urges russia to take the heat out of the ukrainian crisis while sending $60000000.00 worth of military aid to keith and his reportedly considering more fuss. the curious tale of the american billionaire
7:01 pm
forced to return $70000000.00 worth of stolen antiquities. he had been hoarding for decades, but there is anger after it is revealed that he won't face criminal charges ah, broadcasting live director mister hughes and moscow. this is our to international. i'm john thomas. certain, glad to have you with are now a dark day for journalism is how supporters of julian assange have reacted to the british high court ruling that the wiki leaks founder can be extradited to the united states. washington one, it's appeal against a previous decision blocking assange from being sent to america to face trial. campaigners slammed this latest ruling which has was handed down on the un human rights day. we condemn today's u. k. high court decision to allow the expedition of julius on to the us,
7:02 pm
which will prove historic for all the wrong reasons. we fully believe that julian assigned has been targeted for his contributions to journalism. people gathered in front of the court condemning the decision. previously, a lower court had blocked to sanchez extradition over concerns about his mental health. but it was ruled on friday that that was no longer a concern. after the u. s. gave assurances, he would not serve any sentences in a maximum security prison or solitary confinement. sanchez, lawyers describe those pledges as vague and unreliable. his fiance made an emotional statement after the announcement for how long can this go on to day? is international human right state? what a shame, how cynical to, how this decision on this day to have one of the foremost the foremost publisher journalists of the past, 50 years in
7:03 pm
a u. k. prison, accused of publishing the truth about war crimes, about cia kill teams. here's a brief recap of the recent back story in 2019 joint sans was forcibly removed by british police from ecuador embassy in london. after the country terminated his 7 year asylum there, he had sought refuge after sexual assault allegations and sweden, which were later dropped. the british authorities arrested him on a separate charge of jumping bail. america wants the wiki leaks founder extradited on claims of conspiring to hack a government computers and publishing classified material. we spoke with us national security agency was a blower, william binnie, about the case and also with rafael korea. the former president of ecuador, whose administration gave assange political asylum the moon, according to what a gift de london court gave to the united states of the human rights state. but that's grim irony on human rights damage. the rights of the journalist are
7:04 pm
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, carol, he would be applauded by the mainstream media horner 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 this greg 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, is what we're talking about. war cries, this cannot be a state secret. the world has to know about that. there must be transparency. that's what assange dear yours. that's why he's been punished since 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 in violation of the espionage that. what that is, the united states law is not a world wide law,
7:05 pm
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 as the espionage ack. suspending 1st amendment rights, they said it was justified in time of war blot as well. i would point out, we're not in a war now. congress is not declared war and we had no declared war. why aren't they indicting 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 of maturity. why aren't they doing that as 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 did that they put out to the public. when, when can you just divide from through other sources and means and methods that are validity of what they've been telling you cant, 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 laws that they've passed. that's why we have here in the
7:06 pm
united states, 2 sets of laws, one for those of the people and the rest. and those in power have a different set of laws. it is not gone unnoticed, that the extradition ruling against julian astonish, came not only on human rights day, but also on the same day as the u. s. wrapped up its multinational summit for democracy, which president biden pushed for people to be able to breathe freely. it didn't take long and then for the criticism to role in that he was not applying the same principles to julian such and as we close out the 1st gathering let's, let's together reaffirm our determination. the future will belong to those who embrace human dignity. not those who trample one wish to potential other people and those who stifling and who give her people the ability to breathe free, not those who seek to suffocate their people with an iron hand. this shameful, vertical political case against
7:07 pm
a journalistic and public figure is another manifestation of the cannibalistic worldview 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 sanchez, the disgrace, meanwhile, bite in his holding his cynical democracy summit and the hypocrisy and the cruelty . and then there's this while the u. s. is busy promoting democracy in other countries. its own seems to be at risk stock, home based thing tanks, annual review of democracies around the world has for the 1st time put the u. s. in the back sliding category assange freedom campaign or john reese says that supporting democracy in other countries doesn't mean the u. s. is doing the same at home. i think it's remarkable that especially on human rights day that the judges in this case should be fine. but it would be safe to extradite union assigned to the country where it security service leads. cia has previously
7:08 pm
been threatening to hit that old kill in the problem with many multiple sites. they're all for democracy and freedom of speech in a free press, you know, the people countries but not necessarily in their own. and until we get off back and forth the and understand. but freedom of the price is a universal human right? because it's part of freedom of speech, we will be making very much progress over $70.00 people are thought to have died after parts of kentucky were devastated by the worst tornadoes in the states. history. with fears that the overall death toll could exceed a 100 before the end of the day. storms tor across parts of the central and southern us with kentucky governor declaring a state of emergency. this has been the most devastating tornado event in our state's history. the level of devastation is unlike anything i've ever seen.
7:09 pm
satellite far too many homes, that people were likely an entirely devastated this will be, i believe, the deadliest tornado system to ever run through kentucky. one of the worst hit places in the city of mayfield, kentucky will these pictures show the destruction not what was a candle factory. its roof collapsing after the tornado struck. authorities say as many as 110 people were inside. when the building was hit by the storm, the governor fears the states, the death toll could possibly exceed 100 people. and in arkansas, one person is thought to have been killed and 5 seriously injured after the same storm damaged a nursing home. there many others were trapped inside that building. the severe weather has also claimed at least 3 lives in tennessee. tensions over ukraine are running high with russia, slamming the west for fueling, the escalation and voicing concern it. nato's actions in the region. moscow says
7:10 pm
that they could potentially lead to a large scale conflict. a course has been set to draw ukraine into needs. such irresponsible behavior is an unacceptable threat to security provoking serious risk for all parties involved up to a large scale conflict in europe. the u. s. revealed on thursday that 30 javelin anti tank missile systems were delivered to ukraine in october, as part of a $60000000.00 military aid package. and a further $200000000.00 could be donated. this comes as ukraine accuses russia of sending military assistance to the self proclaimed republics in the east of the country equipment moscow denies, however, russia is still being urged to respect borders by both nato and the new military build up in their own ukraine. this races, tensions undermine security. in europe, we call on russia to return to diplomacy. and to de escalate the about,
7:11 pm
we expect russia to de escalate and refrain from any aggression towards his neighbors and respect the rights of sovereign stainless to. the escalation happened after a ukrainian navy ship called the dumbass approach to russian waters without authorization on thursday. the move that russia regarded as a threat to the navigational safety of other vessels in the area. ukraine denied all allegations and insisted the ship was an unarmed search and rescue vessel that never entered restricted waters or opposed to any threat. the vessel did eventually change course. to give you more perspective, the ship is named after the eastern, the ukraine region of dumbass, which has been making headlines since 2014. when war broke out there, that unrest has become a seed of discord between kevin moscow and on thursday, russian president vladimir putin compared. what is happening in the region to a war crime? daughter. so she,
7:12 pm
i should say that we're supposed be as the 1st step towards genocide, what's going on and on bass now very much resembles genocide. see it and we know about it. the situation, at least in ukraine at the moment. so i could liken it to the human it's area and catastrophe. the war there has been happening for the last 8 years and i'm there at least 56 times a year. i'm going back there in december again and when talking to people generally, and they're saying that we are really tired of this least tell us when is this going to stop? we are talking about the escalations there from time to time, but said to tell you honestly, the escalation hasn't stopped in the last 8 years. people that live along the front lines. they're constantly being shelled out of the of a with artillery. there's a small arms flyer between the 2 sides, both sides of blaming each other for violating the truce. you know that there are men scores that are in place there that are supposed to prevent the sides from
7:13 pm
worrying against each other however, and has been proven recently as well. ukraine continues to violate those accords by using a heavily armed drones along the front lines. are they using high caliber artillery and of course are the people there. i mean, they see with their own eyes. so i have a listen to what the people are saying is the union here is shelling continues every day and i sometimes further away sometimes closer. but every day when you have a machine gun, empty aircraft, missiles and heavy artillery key with that we go down to this basement. we do not go further because it is wet over there. here susan and box my son recently has spent almost an hour. but in general, we have not hidden in this basement for a long time, because now we are used to constant machine gun and artillery michelin and my id is lydia. my house i am living in was simply given to me by ordinary people,
7:14 pm
which because my real house was bombed in january 2014 and my daughters in july. people have a different opinions as to how this conflict would, endo, once again i'm talking about a regular people of this conflict. it's very close to my heart because i do have relatives out there as well. the majority, a large majority of the people, they want to link their future with russia more than 300000 so dunbar. so residents have already received a russian citizenship now ukrainian officials, they're still hoping for a united country, but people in the government serve. there are just as many opinions regarding this . the solution of the conflict as there are officials. but some are the very often they contradict each other in their methods, their ways how to unite the country once again. for example, just recently, their foreign minister said that the only way to do to stop the
7:15 pm
conflict is not dialogue but sir is through force. so there advocating violence once again. meanwhile, our president zalinski earlier on saturday. he does not exclude a referendum regard regarding the status of both crimea and don boss. so even in key, if there isn't a single opinion. so meanwhile, the people continue to suffer in van bus, journalist and author thomas fast vendor told us that there is a real risk of a full scale european war. there is so something that has not been here for decades . that is the perspective, the real perspective or for a major european war. so he and now the key for a potential war in europe lives now 100 percent with the key of government. if key, if decides to provoke a russian invasion and that there will be
7:16 pm
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 western support for the ukrainian side. so the western narrative says that whatever crimea, whatever a key if does to reclaim or even reconquer the breakaway republics, 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, all to also paris and berlin, understand that there is a real risk of a european war here. still becoming the program bad news for american shoppers as prices and surged to a near 40 or high. we'll talk more about the spiraling inflation after short breaks . there was our international ah
7:17 pm
ah. and i dream shaped bank thinkers and things with there's things ah, we dare to ask in oh, always talked about the rising chance of civil war and america. and it could either be between the have yacht and the have not. it could be between the big points days like texas or florida between the non bit point states. but the rising tension is
7:18 pm
comparable because the rising coefficient that is now in a spread between the very top and the and the bottom is getting extremely wide. the the, the ah welcome back. this is, are you into nation. now in american billionaire has been forced to to surrender stolen antiquities that he had kept for decades. the case of hedge fund pioneer michael steinhardt has shocked archeologists and historians around the world. and his collection of plundered art is estimated to be worth about $70000000.00. so let's have a look at some of those items, many of which were apparently stolen and smuggled. they include this one which dates back to 5, b, c, and is worth 3. and
7:19 pm
a half $1000000.00. another rare masterpiece is the lar, acts a small chest for human remains with an impressive price tag of $1000000.00. and also among them, a set of dest masks getting back to 7000 b. c. steinhardt gave up the treasures as part of a deal, which means he will not face criminal charges. of the origins of the looted antiquity stretch across 11 countries. among them, italy, greece and israel, all robbed of their cultural heritage. experts say the damage inflicted is immeasurable. jim stubbs has been done to the countries of origin. so if you're looking to call sites the main damage is cultural in the sense that we are losing the study of his objects. our common sort 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 are the only
7:20 pm
a hardship for michael steinhardt though is a lifetime ban on acquiring any other relics in the future. his lawyer says the collector is very pleased to the investigation concluded without any charges, but there is public outrage at what is perceived as a remarkably lenient ruling with most respondents to a poll, insisting he's gotten away too lightly. the justice system in the u. s. was constructed primarily for 2 reasons, punish the poor, protect the wealthy, 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 sure that there will be unsafe to pick up the case again. my preference would
7:21 pm
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 collect, the history 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 as objects. america is in the grip of surging inflation, not seen since the $980.00 with prices rising across many sectors for 6 months in a row in november prices for us, consumers jumped nearly 7 percent compared with little more than one percent a year ago, triggered by the krona virus pandemic, inflation has hit everything from food and energy to house rentals and cars. but
7:22 pm
the u. s. federal reserve is still hesitant to take serious action to curve the spike, such as raising interest rates. economist peter earl says that higher inflation drives people to take on debt. there is a view that low low level inflation is, is good to be economy. i'm not sure i subscribed that, but certainly the kind of inflation we're seeing now is very pernicious and it breaks down as many aspects of the economy in many ways the pandemic, or rather the central begging response of the panoramic is the main factor. that's great in place right now. last year, the federal reserve increased the years money sharp supply by between 30 and 40 percent, and the root cause inflation is lots of money. jason, as they were fewer goods and services. so that's the main one that is going to try to lift interest rates due to tamp down of this question, but they can't do they stop to open market bond purchase? as nate said, they won't stop back until april or may of next year. so give me a while, was in place, you 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,
7:23 pm
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 it seems the anger over president biden's handling of the economy isn't bad news for everyone. a butting entrepreneur in the state of massachusetts is turning the dislike into dollars and has opened a shop selling some unique anti by merch nice. the owner says his customers feel deeply unhappy with what's happening in their country. 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,
7:24 pm
i bought this hat. i thought this is really cool that i got some other things in the office in a good quality affordable. it still granted black, my beer, a dollar with . oh a. i think it's fantastic. i'm
7:25 pm
from how to tell and i absolutely love. great, absolutely job. i'm glad that you just tell them to find the right people most surprises for them. and, and you know, colleges. busy high schools, it seems to be a seem to be catching on really well in our customers because we had some knowing on patrol stores our customers were asking for it. so we started carrying it and it went over was taking up 80 percent of our sales. so i said, let's just do a themed store, just let's go branded store and that's how we started. but despite his view that it's all about having different opinions, polls tell us a different story. turns out that for some in the us, your voting choice may actually be a good reason not to date you or even talk to you political commentator. and our tea contributor, lauren chen reveals who is sewing the division. today the progressive left and
7:26 pm
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 counter partners. i mean, clearly the political environment is getting more and more hostile and if the left stands for all of these positive things, then it must stand to reason that the right is behind all of the bad thing. 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 republicans said no compared to a whopping 71 percent of democrats, who said that they would not go out on a date with someone who had voted for the opposing party. even when we look at less
7:27 pm
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 republican 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 that the biggest errors in the whole study came one liberals answered the care and
7:28 pm
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. a 4 story apartment building in italy has collapsed, apparently due to a gas explosion. it happened around midnight in the sicilian town of revenue, so the blaze also reportedly spread to 2 other nearby buildings before being contained by firefighters. rescue workers are searching the rubble for up to a dozen people, including 3 children are you are watching arch international. you back in about 31 minutes with another full and fresh looking new stay with us.
7:29 pm
ah, ah ah ah, ah ah ah.
7:30 pm
oh, i max taiser this is the kaiser report? yes. where are amongst the palm trees? the flora, the fauna of south florida. oh boy, haven't good fun here, stacy. we're also emits the fish face in clown cars. that's the episode this time. and i'm going to look at this 1st headline here and i want to show you when i look at the u. s. dollar, when i look at u. s. dollar monetary policy, when i look at global monetary policy, this is what i see and i see it so much so that i actually tweeted it. the dollar after yet another round of free money injected into markets by the fed. this was referring to a new york post article in which you see this image of a woman before and after one with the world's biggest lips is getting.
