a lot of interest in this next door to n. s. b i whistle blower testifying at a us congressional hearing as plain not under cover officers on the bureaus upsets were present at the capital building during the january 2021 on risk. the extent of their involvement, though it seems to be car fide more than a 1000 people, have been charged with the federal crimes for their religion. rules in the store making of congress supporters of joe biden, tied to the day as an insurrection named the bluffing, the trails for power. after former presidents, donald trump's election to mr. trump was subsequently impeached, but not convicted for how much of the inciting the hot, it's now the f. b i is refusing to release large parts of surveillance footage from that day. so that would expose the identities of agents. and then for, for these conversations firsthand, why can you show us,
2:10 am
why do you just send us that gives us access to the 11000 hours of video. this is a bill because there may be, may be to use ease undercover officers. ready or c, h s, is comp and as a hearing for confidential human sources on those videos whose identity we need to protest while we have a former f b, i employees coming forward and testifying about what they see as polluters is ation of these investigations. the 2 men testify that they have their security clearances revoked by the the i in response to their political views about the january 6th events up the i whistle blower or boil has previously testified about how he and his family were made temporarily homeless when he received an indefinite suspension from the f b i. how do you think that solves being able to shine light on corruption,
2:11 am
weaponized ation. any kind of mist dr. misconduct that exists with the american. it doesn't solve it, but the guy will crush you. this government will crush you and your family. if you try to expose the truth about things that they are doing that are wrong, and we are all examples of that. details also works shed uh, in the testimony we heard about the extent to which the i surveillance escalated in the aftermath of the january. 6th of that so was heard some outrage about the privacy of americans and the extent to which the f. b, i was acquiring information about banking transactions. here's some of what we heard on capital hill. bank of america turned over the credit card transactions, whether for an aircraft or a lodging, or the purchase of a cup of coffee for everyone who decided to come to wash and to be in washington area of the northern virginia area. that's one of the things that you asked
2:12 am
questions about as there are victims all over the place. all of the people who suffered when the f b. i and the department of homeland security got involved in censorship with social media platforms, millions and millions of tweets and narratives being taken down. that is victimization at scale. so we now have further confirmation that among those who perpetrated the events on january 6th, there were under cover f, b, i, informant, possibly others involved with different security services and different intelligence agencies. this raises many questions and well one version of the january, 6, the dance was certainly all over the media and it's direct after map. more details are coming to the surface about how exactly the days of their plans as they did with more questions being raised. then answers being provided. okay, now the story,
2:13 am
we're close the following today and for some of the german and buster after 2 journalist from a turkish and use our plates were arrested in frankfort. on wednesday, the reporters from the daily somebody were released later that day with the country's foreign minister saying that attention was disgraceful. the detention of funk for the representative of savannah newspaper, but the chime and police without justification is inactive for us and, and in simulation against attack express was strongly condemned the heinous act. the german police raided the journal, his homes on wednesday morning were a number of electronic devices where reportedly seized a lawyer for the newspapers said the men were detained after a complaint was lodge by a political organization as an organization. the banker has bounded as a terrible group. the rate came just 3 days after the 1st round of the turkish presidential election last weekend, leading some of the question, the timing of the arrest current president regina type or the one top the ball is
2:14 am
which i'm, let's say, was not the result burden was hoping for, with no candidate reaching the 50 percent threshold so needed to secure a victory, a run off between mr. a on a may not position rival can miles village toto lou will take place in may 20, literally. or we spoke with the news coordinator at the daily sub i do it online since check and maintains, if it had been western journalists detain, there would have been a very different international reaction. a shimmy. somebody sort of jumped by turn now this operation against journalists in the name of freedom and democracy. one of the most important countries with the largest economy in europe has once again shown that it's a democracy in name only. as a journalist, i'm scared to go to germany. i am also scared that i may be arrested there. unfortunately, the german state, which is very concerned about the political relations that have recently developed between turkey and russia, is currently increasing pressure on the turks. unfortunately,
2:15 am
the western press is under siege because they cannot write anything that contradicts the policy determined by the european union and the united states. if german reporters were arrested in turkey, a journalist from all over europe, would protest against that the european union, and especially germany and the united states, will argue that there are no human rights and turk. yeah, there is no democracy there. the judge of young is a dictator in that he's an autocrat. when germany does the same thing. as you see, nothing happens. no one makes a sound. it was the, the group of 7 summit kicked off on friday in japan's non right out of the gate. new initiatives to try and hurt moscow, where discussed among them, the u. k. a non instead russian diamonds aren't so brilliant anymore, them would be sanctioning imports of nature's hardest material. archie contribution original morrison offered us her take on the british. prime minister richie soon
2:16 am
have arrived at the g 7 summit in here, oshima japan, and promptly treated what looked like an invitation to a destination wedding. there between himself and ukrainian president vladimir zalinski, that one of his kids hooked up with an app on their smartphone or something. but there will be no diamonds involved in this particular love affair. see, next pacifically announced alongside the our work were banning all in birds of russian diamonds. copper elementary, m a nickel sanctions are having a clear impact and degrading prudence. war effort. the jew 7 stands united with ukraine. degrading is a more app description for what's happening to your opinions quality of life and purchasing power as sanctions are. having such a quote, clear impact on russia that the west is still having to pump up. you prayed with weapons and cash at the expense of their own citizens. so it looks like su nak, rummaged around is couch cushions and found something russian that was still left
2:17 am
a sanction russian diamonds, which represent a drop in the proverbial pocket of british diamond imports. despite russia being one of the largest dining producers in the entire world, now the u. k, mainly imports these gems from belgium, israel, the us hong kong in india. although after the onset of the ukraine conflict, the u. k. did really ramp up its russian diamond buying from around a $188000.00 in 2021 to $4100000.00 worth in 2022. that's it for you to western press reports. so that means that the same time, that's due, next tory government colleagues were all obsessing over the idea of depriving russian president vladimir putin personally of lunch money and fantasizing that it would make him a band and strategic national security object is involving ukraine at the same time the u. k was buying up russian diamonds like they were b pies on sale. it's sainsbury's and of the diamonds coming into the u. k. through
2:18 am
these top supplying nations, it's pretty much impossible to know which of those are actually sourced from russia . belgium, for example, said the imported $1200000000.00 euros worth of russian diamonds in the 1st 8 months of 2022, which is about on par with the $1800000000.00 euros in port in 2021. what about a quarter of diamonds being sold out as the world's biggest diamond trading hub in antwerp, belgium came from russia. so this all is starting to look like the same sort of game that the europeans have been playing with their russian energy sections. they make a big show of purchasing like their bands, but then they just end up buying russian energy anyway after it integrates to 3rd countries like india for example. and now the european union is even angry about
2:19 am
that. like, what did they expect for india to break up the microscope and power? so the rest of molecules from the indium hot use, indian officials are basically say, hey, look guys, you're buying indian fuel. and who are you take issue with russian fuel that may have come over at some point. and now self identifies has indeed so now the same western obsession of separating out the citizenship of energy in an attempt to stick it to russia. now risk playing out with diamonds as well, and western alice, or se, that could end up backfiring on the of the did they have been going on for some time. because there was a clear risk that russian could simply divert, as i suppose, to not participate in countries. these sensors were implemented in a way that mesa conversion. difficult though, then we can see less russian supply coming onto the market. and high prices. therapy in union has been resisting a bad on russian diamonds so far. but when they're all now over there at the g 7
2:20 am
summit with zalinski expected to attend. it's not a given that common sense will actually prevail. it risk being like a bunch of boys trying to impress that one girl at a frat party by doing back flips off the roof. and obviously nothing good can come of that. the really problem in house and funds the bill that would make it a crime with a year behind bars for a flying the palestinian flag during protest. in addition, the legislation would give is really authorities the right to criminalize pol, listed in protest. the bill was approved in his 1st reading. the law has to be turned over for a series of further legislative processes before potentially becoming law. last year, the can assets loaded another controversial about bond raising the policy, and i get state funded institutions that really come us military griffin gals that
2:21 am
has condemned the current bill releasing a statement that said the initiative was an active religious war on the palestinian people. a tension from an extremely high in the region as well as the name slash for this release during the controversial flag march injuries. and this week, that's the trade off strikes between the sides. as rockets were far to gather in response to idea 1st strikes on the territory, the killed 5 instruments militants along with scores of civilians losing their lives in columbus. and creating a russian citizen who worked with a pretty good level as the mural and saves the far right party behind. the legislation has pushed ideas such as this in the past, but they never come around. one cannot comment on visa issue with the very broad green or even a smile because it's just a clownish gesture on the part of the most extreme right.
2:22 am
member of the coalition who always uh, come up, but uh we use uh some outland beach ideas. it has nothing to do. we use the real life in israel now and the, you know, a 2 people stand 20 feet about waving the flag and the 3rd president comes over. but spencer, for use the policeman, mary, going to arrest them. obviously pieces not enforceable juice or drug patient. just another street in the face of speech loving people. um either a police geniune always really but nevertheless what um is the earliest i can do is booked up the 2 flex together. if they had the sort of an emblem where the police geniune and these really flags of flying, who's going to take down this double flag, which includes these rally?
2:23 am
well, so there are many ways to bypass base mockery of legislation. depends a goal and has overestimate, did the value of military equipment that sent to you, trained by 3000000000 dollars. now some members of the us congress have suggested be inflated cost have restricted. what could have been more supplies to key if i spoke to person for the us defense department has confirmed the accounting or saying that the pentagon use replacement cost and it's calculations rather than the original purchase price of the year, which over estimated the value of what has been shipped to train of since the start of a conflict, washington, the centrally $80000000000.00 worth of aid to you print the majority of that consisting of weapons equipment on the logistics support. the latest package was approved in december, but from all of that's $48000000000.00, only a nice remains. we heard the thoughts of carding could chomsky
2:24 am
a retard us herforst lieutenant colonel. this is the pentagon is simply figuring out is aging stockpiles and sending them to the worst on which we may extend the comfort. but we really are the united states and in the western countries that are aging, ukraine really are emptying out their store house and their warehouses of existing weapons and ammunition and technologies that we would use on a battlefield where we're dumping all that in ukraine and the value that we put on it. i mean, it could be like a yard sale, right? you know, red dot, i mean it's whatever you say it is, it's whatever 2 people agree that it is. in reality, that stuff may not be valued at all because depending on his gambling that when they get rid of all this stuff, the congress will fund them for a bunch of new stuff. i don't know if they don't know if the pentagon understands the reality of the economy, the relapse materiality of that you know,
2:25 am
the picture dollar. i don't know if it gets all that, but it expects to be more than over compensated from what they're getting rid of in their storehouse. so how they price that stuff is less important than the fact that they are purposely getting rid of it. they're purposely sending it to ukraine to be destroyed, to be left behind. we will never see it again. we will never have to maintain it again. and we can get a bunch of new stuff that's in theory. that's how it's going to work for the pentagon. not washington say he's out, it's ties with the latin american country of ecuador, remain strong, and not the us respects the country's constitutional process. now this, despite the political chaos caused by the decision of the echo dwayne president, to dissolve the national parliament as an impeachment process was waged against him . that process known as mutual depth. and the country's constitution was invoked by the president of the legislative body, investigated him for
2:26 am
a corruption presidency or more or less, so has denied the allegations standing there holistically motivated the nation. now it faces new parliament entry presidential elections as well to be held within the next 90 days. opposition politicians have called into question the legality of the leaders move. well, that was also brought into question by ex, with doors leadership itself. when a similar situation rose in neighboring her room, we should point died. in december 2022. the parliament did not century i stayed the left wing. the president had drilled castillo for attempting to dissolve it. the ecuadorian governments. i'm the u. s. then couldn't damn the action that it said undermines for democracy. and you quoted, for the word supports democratic institutions throughout the region and throughout
2:27 am
the world and an x in accordance with the principles of international law. that is why ecuador empathetically condemned spanish actions that implies a rupture of the constitutional order and breaks the democratic system of the situation and prove remains very fluid. the united states has monitoring developments closely. but i can say without hesitation, that the united states categorically rejects any extra constitutional acts to circumvent perused constitution, which undermined democracy in the country within the view of independent political scientists. unless the co to leave washington support for the president of ecuador has nothing to do with democracy. this is dr. c. on the part of the united states because the united states again constantly talks about and even in their statement, the state department said that they're supporting the constitution and if they're supporting democracy and the will people self determination, etc. when the united states has never been concerned with these ideals in the region or in the rest of the world. if any other president who was against us,
2:28 am
you know, polarity, who was against neo liberalism, who was against the united states, having the say in terms of economic policy and foreign policy, if their country, then there would be a completely different response from the united states. but because again, my last so has really been kind of a poster child for what the united states wants in the region being a banker being committed to united states, you know, polarity being solidly against multilateralism with russia or with china in the region, etc. because of this, they are completely fine with him, ignoring constitutional safeguards and him ignoring the will of the people at this time and dissolving the legislative body of the country for the bottle. for natural resources is reaching fever pitch in many regions across the world. but nothing more so than enough. next we ask for the confidence tended to ensure it makes the
2:29 am
most of the assets the rest of the world. they were the turkeys already, and they told me century keys already doing its share as a nate on ethics. but it's not going by some of the american ideas of kind of you can navigate embargoes. i guess rush, i think tricky will continue. and that's only because the relationship may be beneficial. economic rates. but also because russia has to be a partner in maintaining the international orange the
