not an individual level, it's not individual. well now, or if we go on believing that never change is obesity epidemic. that industry has been influencing very deeply. the medical and scientific establishment for what's driving the obesity epidemic. it's corporate. ah ah. usually friendly u. s. media alice is starting to say, joe biden shouldn't run again for president, is american covey deaths top $800000.00 ramp and inflation drops. conceive the prices through the route to position in germany to the countries new cove measures with assassination plots and accusations of naziism focus. cobra is a threat to humanity. a church is the world to wake up to dove and viral threats in

the global warming could soon unleash upon us. and finally revealed the manchester arena. suicide bomber had links to a nato trained terrorist inquiry. his closing submissions from the case home office, counter terrorism, please. ah, good morning. welcome to be watching r t internet. with the pandemic on the rise again in the u. s. and nearing 150000 daily cases, president biden's given a grim morning to unfinalize americans in light of the ramp you only cron variant from vaccinating. we are looking at a winter of severe illness and death on vaccinated for themselves or family animal hospital with wilson over well. well, the us has now passed another grim milestone,

$800000.00 covey deaths comes at a time of soaring inflation and living costs. all of which is having a negative impact on the man at the home biden's popularity. ortiz nicky. erin, explains a tragic milestone bind and called it, and he's right. the number of covey, dest in the u. s. is now about equal to the population of atlanta. anthony lewis combined. the toll stanza, more than $800000.00, a grim figure, which is doubled in a single year. it's a heavy burden for any president to carry in his 1st year in office. but it seems that president biden took some convincing on the gravity of the situation. what was 200000 were preventable death live looks when vaccines wo readily

available. and the old habit of blaming donald trump is no longer going to work. just over 4 weeks ago, america had no real plan of action a most of the country. my predecessors, my mother would say, god love and fail the order and of vaccines fail, the mobilize the effort to administer the shots, fail to set of vaccine centers that changed the moment we took office, as by the now uses his influence, to encourage people to get vaccinated won't turn help, but wonder where the trust in the presidents woods has been on the mind vaccinated . 57 to me, 570. to me. i don't want to read. i'm not sure i got the right number. the total number boosters is what if it had the 77000000 boosters, we have a roughly 350000000 people vaccinated united states. and

as biden comes to the end of what was expected to be a com and year after trans post. so that almost at 70 percent of americans have it reservations where the bind and is a leader. they can believe in no doubt not helps by his multiple fo par, like cracking jokes about kentucky after the state was ravaged by killer tornadoes by kid. say the best thing you ever came out of kentucky was my sister in law. the president's performance this year has also been enough to turn some of the mainstream media against him just months ago. the future look to bright as forecast has spoke optimistically about how life with bio in at the helm would play out. but the tune has changed with some media outlets now, urging bitin against another run. combined president joe biden's age. he'll be 82 shortly after the 2024 election and his ongoing political struggles. he's mired in

the low fourties and job approval, and you get this a series of stories examining where the biden runs again, and if not, what might take his place. so what's the president to do? you should announce much sooner than later that he will not to ron for a 2nd term. the argument against this is that he would instantly turn him into a lame duck presidents. and that's undoubtedly true. bought news flush right now. he's worse than a lame duck. the white house press secretary however says the president has every intention of keeping his job, whether the country will concur is another matter. motions society be split along party lines could be, quote, irreversible and extremely dangerous. thus, the finding of a new academic study, which concludes the division in america, is close to tipping point in claims polarization is going so far that americans will find it difficult if not impossible, to unite even when faced by a serious threat such as war, political commentator, naughty contributed. lauren,

can you, sir, take on how things got to this point? political division in america is at an all time high right now, and it is no secret that by and large the corporate press are not fans of conservatives. after all, they have been calling them nazis and white supremacists for going on 5 years now. and perhaps it is because the rhetoric against republicans was already so strong that now leading up to the 2020 to mid term elections. and yes, even 2024 general elections. it seems like the new way to demonize, anyone who would dare to support donald trump is not just by calling them ideological extremist as we've been seeing. but to actually go so far as to imply that they are physically literally dangerous and an actual threat to democracy. and if you think that's just hyperbole, check out this op ed from the washington post in his piece. our constitutional crisis is already here, writer robert kagan lamented that quote, the united states is heading into its greatest political and constitutional crisis since the civil war with a reasonable chance over the next 3 to 4 years of incidence of mass violence,

a breakdown of federal authority and the division of the country into warring a red and blue enclave. and to be clear afar from believing that potential political violence could be a both sides situations where democrats and republicans alike end up taking arms for their respective causes. commentators like kagan and emerson, b c's, john heilman, make it clear that in their opinion, the threat of violence comes solely from the right, at least 8 percent. and maybe as many as 12 percent of the american people now say the job was illegitimate and that violence was appropriate tool to remove human restored. donald trump considering that throughout 2020 large scale political violence was almost an exclusively left wing arena. with many american cities being burned or looted under the guise of b, l, m, and t for activism. hearing the corporate press now trying to paint conservatives as the real threat of domestic terrorism in the country might seem disingenuous. and so with all this discussion of political division and even violence should come

as no surprise that the top bit of secession has even come back to the main stream . in fact, as a bloomberg opinion piece recently noted from tax it to the new california republic poles in the us do show strong support for splitting the nation among blue and red lines. and although the concept of balcony zation or succession is still regarded as an extreme suggestion by many in the media, if from supporters and republicans really are as violent and bigoted as they would have us believe us, shouldn't they be jumping at the chance to separate themselves from them or perhaps are the allegations against conservatives. merely smears meant to keep them out of political power. all while allowing democrats to enact legislative control over them. plots to assassinate top officials, violent clashes investigations and arrests. that is the state of germany right now . it's strong public resistance to new cove measures. these are being rolled out

despite most of the populations already being fully vaccinated or correspondent the deliverables. munich was the latest city in germany to see demonstrations by anti vax groups, as well as those that are opposed to the measures that have been put in place to try and stop the spread of cove at 19 place. there are 4000 people, turned up at the demonstration in bavaria. it was all relatively peaceful until a group of around $4.00 to $500.00 of them decided they were going to go to march around the city that resulted in some captain. mouse with the police said, bit of pushing and shoving and ultimately according to the police $28.00 arrests being made. they ranged from people refusing to wear masks to those that had assaulted police officers. what we have seen at these type of demonstrations though, is an increase in the, the speed at which it, in shoes and the amounts of people who are getting involved in violence. ah,

ah, when we're talking about these demonstrations, they are groups that serve anti vaccine, as they said, also opposed to those a covert measures. but a lot of them are lumped under the umbrella of a group called the lateral think is now they have be roundly marked a here in germany, in society as well as on t v, in satirical tv programs and, and elsewhere. but things have taken a much darker turn. in fact, on wednesday morning, dawn rates were carried out across the state of saxony, in the east of germany. and in connection with a plot to assassinate the, the leader of the government of the state of saxony. that's michael coachman also to launch attacks against the politicians in that state. now saxony has some of the lowest rates of vaccination in germany. it also has some of the highest rates of

covert infection as well. well, following those rates, 5 men and one woman were taken into custody. what is seen is a number of politicians turning on the messaging application telegram with them, saying that it was all messaging application that this type of plot was able to be for nested. and the message being spread, they are extremely dangerous because they're not only talking, chatting and inciting each other, but also taking action very worth while pointing out the latter thing because the anti faxes, the, the anti coves measure people are a smaller percentage of the population than those at large, what we have seen is a large number of people coming forward for vaccinations. here in germany. in fact, on wednesday they broke records with 1500000 job being handed out across the whole country. now 1300000 of those web things, the vaccines, what we have those,

the read the rest were i the 1st or 2nd doses of vaccine. now what we have is around 70 percent of the population fully vaccinated, but there is a group of around 20 percent of the population that all be admittedly on c vaccine here in germany. and they just so absolutely no interest in getting that vaccine whatsoever. in fact, that's why we've seen all our sholtes, the german chancellor talking about the possibilities of potentially in the future . seeing mandatory vaccination countries like australia on greece of already said that from next year they will be implementing mandatory vaccination. it's still after discussion phase here in germany though, i'm with the world worried by coven scientists are busy trying to prevent a greater threat. because by ancient viruses that are lying, dormant under arctic ice rushes urging the arctic council to start examining such forces urgently as melting permafrost means that they may not remains safety frozen

underground for much longer. deadly ancient viruses revived warranty. well no reality. ah rushes, permafrost is melting. viruses and bacteria that were trapped in the frost for thousands of years now could wake up. there are extremely good papers that say yes, you can revive bacteria from deep permafrost. russia establishes an organization to examine these threats. he stood up that are sure, there are a number of well documented outbreaks of paleo infections that had arisen from thermal degradation of permafrost in the arctic and suburb degrees. this anthrax, smallpox tuberculosis, one virus, has already been found to pitts. a virus has defrosted from the pound of frost and

right off to die, it started attacking and killing amoebas. luckily it is not harmful to humans, but what else is hidden in the frozen soil? what is awaiting us in 2022 or projects. i'm to minimizing the risk posed by global warming. in particular, the emergence of new infectious diseases. these typically 1st occur among animals, but they can be transferred to humans and become extremely resistant as a senior official and they ought to counsel towed out to about the main biological threats in the arctic region. article you lets me would. the arctic is a most sensitive region which is prone to catastrophic consequences on a number of climate, social, economic, and ethnic, cultural indicators, you'll and biological risks and hazards are the main threats to its sustainable economic developments. which until now, haven't been assessed properly. if we key factors exacerbating re, su,

include ongoing and expected climate changes, which 1st and foremost affect the geography of migration roots. the season ality and the breeding grounds of wild birds, fish, insects, and animals. some bird species migrate annually from south to north for safe breathing in the arctic region. and we should keep in mind that birds are the main carriers of respiratory viruses. many of these birds are asymptomatic transporters of all types and combinations of the influenza. a virus which can, as can corona virus strains, undergo genetic recombination and turn into strains affecting humans. another phenomenon specific to the arctic is the rapid melting of permafrost, which may have preserved a number of a viable spores of zombie bacteria and viruses for centuries. or kiki so you'd the arctic council is

a body mainly tackling challenges and threats tied with so called soft security, which includes human and economic activities is use of permafrost, degradation, climate change in high latitudes, and much more in may, russia became the chairman of the arctic council for 2 years. and one of the main tasks of this post is to improve the level and quality of life of arctic residents . hence, our attention is now focused on health care issues with an emphasis on early identification and combating diseases within the framework of the organization. russia has also initiated the project call to biological safety in the articles under which countries are to develop an international system of interstate relations for the prevention of biological threats as in the arctic region. in addition, the program will allow us to determine the number of viruses and their potential danger, which will help us to select the necessary tools, methods, and strategies. this all means that russia is acting without waiting for

a danger to appear, but concentrating on preventative measures rather than consequences rules. the manchester arena. bomber may have been radicalized by a nato trained terrorists that was revealed during the inquiry into the atrocity thursday senior figures from new case counter terrorism, police and home office gave their closing submissions reminder of what happened in 2017 sal manor bady. detonated explosives in a stadium that was hosting an area on a grand day concerts. 20 people were killed. hundreds of injured. correspond to his dawn of looks at the latest fax to come to light. he murdered 22 people in one suicide blast. now a public inquiry is trying to establish what turned a hardcore party go into a suicide bomber, and how it could have been prevented. the probe is yet to deliver concrete answers,

but over the past couple of years, it has yielded plenty of disturbing revelations. these pictures unnerved by the inquiry leave, little to the imagination the bomb. his whole family himself included, have been gun toting maniacs, thoroughly radicalized according to the findings. this is his father and the m. i. 5, they admitted they knew about the trigger. happy father who apparently was turning his sons into extremist, am i 5 also knew about the bombers contact with not one or 2, but 6 people who were just short of being placed on the terror watch list. and my 5 were also reportedly warned by the f b i that selma betty was planning an attack in the u. k. which in fact he was none of that was apparently good enough to ban him from entry in 2015 and my 5 received information that summoner bady was in contact with the subjects of interest

a. so i c a, so i see was a long standing a, so i, because of his previous affiliation with an extremist group in libya, from mid 2015 onwards. am i 5 received information or some, an a baby on several occasions which include a conflicting information about his a spousal of pro eisley views. ah, this is abdullah rove abdullah a convicted terrorist, suspected of radical ising the manchester terrorist. he was friends with the bomber with the bomb his father. more than that, they were brothers in arms, within one of libya's largest militant groups. the february 17th martyrs brigade, that's where they learned how to shoot, kill and bomb. not without the help of natal instructors, it was a group that had taken up arms to fight against us. yes, indeed, we had to foster us as we were backed up by the world and was i can.

nature was for i can actually, widows long sighted us as the british government. also actually i was trained to bind oxygen. nathan as well. it was just normal. basic training and weapons. basic training. yeah, i got to a shoot and reload the militant groups that later beth terrorists have been ones favored by west and officials. the inquiry has shown when the laws command was done with fighting in libya, he formed an anti government militia in syria on irish government. money, did he subsequently lead the group from libya to, sir? is it? yes, i saw the manor he did and here before that he was in ireland. is it? he was a live is i live in irish, i, logan. and there he was aided by the irish government with money. and i believe the

british government also knew of others were to go and help syrians, if against that, the fight against effect during the libyan conflict. in 2011, the british government was in communication with a wide range of libyans involved in the conflicts against the cathy regime forces. it is likely that this included former members of the libyan islamic fighting group and the 17th of february, march. this brigade is part of our broad engagement during this time. the you case help to rebel groups of various degrees of extremism did not. and there britton's a lead troops were caught on camera in libya, despite official assurances at the time that there were no boots on the ground them . there was no other choice but to admit their reality. if the malicious and der era bellows had not been there playing a key role, i am not so certain that air bala would have resulted in godaddy's downfall in the way did. who had a few people embedded with them, not up front, so to speak,

but beckoned carriers. rebel groups firepower grew. nato was dropping bombs by the 1000 and could our feed, well, eventually fell. and with him went down libya's security and rule of law as war. this myriad of militias turned against each other vying for power. the country turned into a free for all, so the u. k. began to evacuate its citizens, including militants. well guess who boarded the royal navies. h. m. s. enterprise. back in 20. 14 in tripoli. none other than the future manchester bomber salman abedi, the morning inquiry had to our website, which also has plenty stories, not in our bullets, including how america ukraine voted against the un resolution condemning knots. isn't that click away about the dot com, who's the certainly a massive costs for moscow?

should there be any escalation intentions with the crying? the block also voted unanimously to prolong sanctions against russia. and similar warnings came just hours earlier from nater this 60 general saying any further aggression would carry a high price. charlotte dubin ski picks up the story quite a lot to digest from that press conference with the nato secretary general. but he talked about what he sees as being a pattern of aggression coming from russia. and he said, nato will continue to do all it's necessary to ensure that the rights of its allies, its members, are protected. but nature supporting his opinion, does not mean that it's a threat to russia recently, north macedonia, and also montenegro have both been accepted into the nato, a life that is despite protests from the russian government about that. let's have a listen to what else. yen stilton burke had to say, nato has proven over the last years that are open door policy is not only something

we are support in words, but those in deeds parted by inviting to new countries. montenegro north muscle now to become a member. so we have enlarged the line so the last few years with 2 new members, despite protests from, from russia. and also we are supporting ukraine in france efforts to come closer to nato membership. so he went on to talk about what he sees as russia substantial and military build up all the poorer areas with ukraine . and he said that that build up is a provocation. and that it could destabilize europe as well as russia's point of view. it has repeatedly denied that there is any intention i any build up is looking to invade into ukraine. as we know, the rushes foreign ministry spokesperson has slammed this sort of talk. and she

said that such statements just will not help deescalate tensions in the region. if a tional laws, this is it is information campaign, the aims to create. firstly, the image of russia is an aggressor. secondly, additional tashing of the region, including the black sea, the russia crane border, and se ukraine. this will not bring stability and security either in international relations or the regional janda. it will undoubtedly complicate everything. meanwhile, journalists, primarily of course western joyce, freely used the word aggressor, referring to our country. yeah. what right, do they have to do this? i trait understand this every time. when was the last time rush attacked, anyone? people need to back up the screen with arguments and how many times have native countries attack to sovereign states in the last 20 years. how many special operations were carried out by the nato countries? kenny show me something, im close to that from the russian site. no, there is nothing that you need to figure out where there are facts and where there

is propaganda. now it's not just russia that saying, look, we north intending to invade ukraine. we're also hearing similar views from some of europe, sleet, as for example, the prime minister of italy. this is mary a druggie, a said that he's been talking to president putin over the last few weeks and months and as far as he's concerned invading ukraine. this idea isn't based on any fact that we've also heard warnings from the french president about this kind of talk. who was suggesting that this war is worrying between russia and ukraine and could pull in other countries as well. president mack, on saying at such talk doesn't help and actually could end up being a self fulfilling prophecy. oh, sister channel lottie di spoke with a politician and publicity founded germany's justice party. he says, spot use dominance. other nato members should not always do what to once,

europe and the relations between russia and the other western countries. that's not a game. i think nato is an organization where united states has play very insolent joyce. but they are not the only partner in this case and always do with the medical want us to do doing the last decades in us all this was and we destroyed countries without any reasons. and there was no politician and no secretary genera of the nato of nato, who had the courage to say, no, no, mister president, we are not following you are falling our interests. and in our interests, we have to make peace and not war. the cnn produce has been charged with child sex crimes arrival. news outlets also discovered that a criminal complaint involving the man was fired last year suggesting the law

enforcement knew about his alleged activities well before they made an arrest. kelly morgan has more details. john griffin is a long time cnn producer, and we understand he's now been arrested. he's charged with 3 counts of attempting to engage in illegal sexual activities with a minor. now we understand that what happened was there was a mother who took her adoptive daughter to meet with him after receiving $3500.00 from him over the app known as venmo. and at that point, we understand that in august of 2020 this, there was a myriad of electronic devices that were seized from this mother. and now at this point, we have cnn coming forward and saying they had no idea about these illegal and despicable activities. allegedly carried out by their former producer, and they also make a point of saying that none of the electronic devices that were seized were owned

by cnn. here's what they said. prior to his arrest and indictment, we had no knowledge about the case. the question remains, why did it take so long for this arrest and charging to take place? complaint was received in august of 2020. that's when the electronics were seized. why is the arrest simply happening now? the f. b, i did not give an answer that is satisfying people. the allegations are deeply disturbing. the f. b i along with our law enforcement partners will continue to aggressively investigate those who victimized the most vulnerable in our communities. now the us attorney's statement regarding the arrest of mr. griffin, provide some pretty shocking and harrowing details. apparently, mr. griffin is accused of having tried to set up training sessions for under age girls. as well as women. griffin sought to persuade parents to allow him to train their daughters to be sexually submissive. the mother and child flew to boston in

july of 2020, where griffin picked them up in his tesla and drove them to his ludlow house. at the house, the torso was directed to engage in and did engage in unlawful sexual activity. and now this long time, cnn producer is now in custody, awaiting trial facing charges for 3 counts of sex trafficking, minors. i've convicted, he could face life in prison, but many are looking at this case and asking questions about the timing. why was it that these electronic devices were seized in august of 2020? the criminal complaint was filed, but he's just been arrested now. what exactly is going on here? people want clear answers, but at this point we don't have those answers. we've asked the comment requesting statement on the revelations made by folks news we awaits that reply. me. and that brings us today to return with more of.
