u. s. actually in the blocks largest academy in germany, which is so manufacturing, industrial reliant. yes, thank you. it's a symptomatic of a very substantial issue. i would say that we are now in a global supply chain pandemic that has every risk of being as severe an impact on the global economy as the coven pandemic. the fact of the matter is supply chains off in a great state of disruption, starting with commodity pricing and commodity availability at the front end of a supply chain. it's rather like as soon army way you hear about the sou nami, but it takes certain number of days to actually hit or hours to hit sure. and we have not had it hit our shores yet, but it will hit and it's not just a matter of the automobile industry in germany. it's a matter of manufacturing more broadly on a worldwide basis, being disrupted by the mismatches of supply and demand throughout the world economy chain issue. now, with these additional issues regarding magnesium production, how much is the energy current affecting supply chains all around? and how does it stand to have an exact, as we go i

u. s. actually standing strong as of now and you expect to continue? i think the us believes it has more insulin stuff can ascend. that actually does worst case scenario for the taliban running up can stand right now is us says, hey, if you don't have a more diverse government, you know, get your money back. in which case, the tolerance is okay, that's fine, we'll make a deal with china. it's not going to be free money like it might be quote unquote, from the us. but they know that the chinese, for example, aren't supporting terrorism, and that can stand in the u. s. does have ties. just all of the scripts, the weaker is the weaker of the fellow who just mom to a couple of days ago. his group was taken off the terrorists list, why the trust administration. so they'll know that they're dealing with a partner in china for example, that wants to do business rather than wants to control. so i think the total of on or holding a lot more cards in their hand in the us right now. and here's what's amazing talking about a you look at, i can see what the reasons

u. s. actually st. anthony blinking in the max comprising under his manual as a per door have vowed to improve cooperation through a major new security agreement. in out that was made during a visit to max, cut my blank can emit record levels of drug related crime and illegal migration to united states. and he plan replaces the marita initiative, which has been in place since 2008, during which time violence in mexico has become worse. after 13 years of the marita initiative, it's time for a comprehensive new approach to our security cooperation. one that will see us as equal partners in defining our shared priorities, tackled the root drivers of these challenges, like in equity like corruption. now the uncle of the syrian president, bashar assad, has returned home after 36 years in exile. local media says referred to aside, arrived in the capital damascus on thursday to avoid imprisonment in france, where he's under investigation for tax fraud and money laundering. he was allowed back by president bash

u. s. actually like a single doesn't want gusto, a single partner in the whole world. i mean, if rush us to close to germany's problem, if they're too close to turkey is a problem. they don't like them being too close to iran, central asia, china, japan. i mean, there's not really a single partner, russia in the world, which to us would not like to split up a little bit. so this is not the stable world order limit this before was a different it angled here, mid to what does it mean, full issues like i've got a stamp for example, which is now becoming a big story and or syria. if you have the russians and nato not all the same page, this could have a huge rectification on those particular issues. well, not a good will, will come from days. sure about this. unfortunately, there was no searching the may do about that. i mean, mississauga recently gave an ink, you know, the spanish paper and he didn't say that was refreshed. regret, read this is just, that would be, that was right. we defend the west wall and force them to program will only do so good. the ration between r

u. s. actually going to make good on its promise. the eas top break, sent officials says many customs checks between britain and northern island should be removed or not, and has a border which separates the e and the u. k. as growing frustration on both sides about how trade across the border should be controlled. on tuesday, the u. k. brings it minister talked of tearing up a protocol that's created checks on goods moving between great britain in northern on and the u. k. says it will engage funny and constructively with the e. they wants to see significant change. andrew simmons has moved from belfast. the british government isn't happy, nor are the main powers here in northern islands assembly. but the european union executive has gone all the way it can, it would seem to try and smooth out this seaboard a crisis. this was the message from brussels, the, this robust package of practical, imaginative solutions. we can continue to implement the protocols on ireland, northern ireland for the benefit of all communities on the grounds

this looks like it might actually be on the cards and now only now is the a you actually sending a mission. now if the u. s. was expecting this, why didn't the a, you actually try to take any action l. i believe that the african, the, the knew that it didn't really think, well as the sort of clue. i mean, they were waiting to see to hear the voice of this with because there was somebody to cover it a freedom and prove that they were, they were professional enough. they couldn't carry on with our brokerage today to come to the out of the quagmire. so i think it was really wise with to see and to just to national this time is politics and to know a little bit ago. can you just a key that this is not going to go with it? does it have any problem? well, when you say a very wise decision, it was a wise decision that potentially led to the crew that ties you referred to. it actually happening now. i just want to ask you about something you mentioned earlier. you alluded to the sense that there's not a lot of consensus around this of the un security council level. i see that moscow doesn't even want to use the wo

u. s. s. enterprise. actually going into space and you saw just how emotional he got when he came back from that. something like 11 minute journey and the flight couldn't have gone off better. yes, there was some delays due to high wind, but this automated new shepherd rocket did exactly what it was designed to do. so you heard shutting down once, he came out of that capsule talking about the fragility of the emotion of the experience itself. and remember, the new shepherd rocket has some of the biggest windows of any spacecraft ever made . so you can only assume that he got not only to experience about 3 minutes of weightlessness, but to see the curvature of the earth. just how thin the atmosphere that protects us is. and that was the message you want to get across. even before this launch went ahead, but for jeff bay's off who owns blue origin, this was a public relations to he got perhaps the most culturally significant, starship captain and tv history to go up and really get all eyes on blue origin. because re

u. s. was actually facing a significant rise in ransomware attacks. now that's when criminal hackers attack companies, they steal their data and they ran from it back to them. the binded ministration claims that although the cyber attacks were not state sponsored by russia and the majority of them were coming out of the country. so let's take a listen to what he said. i made it very clear to him that the united states expects when a ransomware operation is coming from his soil, even though it's not sponsored by the state. we expect them to act if we give them enough information to act on who that is. the thing is though, the kremlin says it wasn't even made aware of these attackers, and after it found out it re, russia was reached out to the united states for a kind of joint clamped down on cyber crimes around the world. and afterwards, they apparently didn't even receive a response. so for the united states, for washington to think that it's going to going to accomplish much at this international cyber cybersecurity convention without inviting the ma

u. s. by the way, it is itself a major tax haven. it's a incorporation laws are among the easiest in the world. so the u. s. is actually our. busy crime participant, and this kind of a really crazy, monstrous, no tax avoidance. now, europe is on the brink of an energy crisis. his prices continue to hit record highs . one, gym and electricity produced or even shut down its power plant simply because there was no more coal and the country and other you states t. we're also facing shortages of natural gas. let's talk more about this for that . i'll corresponding, charlotte kapinsky empowers florida. good morning key charlotte m winter is coming this assure teacher fuel question is, how is europe and to manage this crisis? well, that's why it's a discussion that the ministers will be looking at today in later this week. the idea is that the moment that there is a lot of finger pointing going on as the block faces this unprecedented energy crisis, that winter crunch is looming. and according to some, this is a problem that has been years in the making. let's have a look at some of the main issues across europe at the moment. and

u. s. by the way, it is itself a major tax savings. it's a incorporation laws are among the easiest in the world. so the u. s. is actually a crime participant and this kind of a really crazy, monstrous, no tax avoidance that europe is on the brink of an energy crisis. is prices continue to hit record highs on gym and electricity producer even shut down its power plant simply because there was no more coal and with winter looming, there also shortages to if natural grass at natural gas across u. d. u. well, there's more now and had the block is managing the crunches. charlotte kapinsky, there is a lot of finger pointing going on as the block faces this unprecedented energy crisis. that winter crunch is looming and according to summer, this is a problem that has been years in the making. let's have a look at some of the main issues across europe at the moment. and we'll start here in france, where there has been a price increase this month of 12.6 percent in gas tariffs that follows several months of other rises. the prime minister shall cast excess. they will not be a freeze and they will not be any more increases. but of

u. s. by the way, i is itself a major tax saving. it's a incorporation laws are among the easiest in the world. so the u. s. is actually our. busy crime participant, and this kind of a really crazy, monstrous, no tax avoidance. right. let me tell you about some usage has come to now this our a denmark's energy agencies cleared part of the nord stream to gas pipeline, from russia to germany for operations to say these details is coming in a corresponding just getting across it to your correspondent peter oliver paint, so i believe it's green light, but not quite funneled string to what you got. yes, exactly, we're not quite there yet, but this is a step along the way to this gas pipeline eventually being up and running. what has happened is the danish energy agency has given its rubber stamp to the 1st string of the node stream to gas pipeline ad. that means that it is undergone air pre commissioning. it's also bad, it's number of tests carried out on it, and it's passed those tests in the eyes of the danish energy agency. there's still some way to go yet, though, before the pipeline will be open running to its fullest exten

u. s. by the way, it is itself a major tax haven. it's a incorporation laws are among the easiest in the world. so the u. s. is actually a crime participant and this kind of a really crazy, monstrous, no tax avoidance for less attractive fuel travels in the u. k. next. and there is a crystal on the balance of petrol stations. they're still saying they're running dry and angry, drivers forming huge cues from today. the u. k. governments deploy military personnel around the country to try to help ease the crisis. our correspondent, shoddy edwards, dash, the reports next then from london is day 10 now of the petrol crisis situation. and the united kingdom is still seeing many cars backed up outside of petrol stations. people waiting hours to fill up that tanks and even the public transportation is being diverted away to avoid all of this gridlock things have gotten so bad. now, the minute tree has now been deployed and drafted in to try and get the fuel to the petrol station. i think it's also really bold that we can actually call in the military at a time like this fold. i think for support to give that confidence and ha

u. s. is actually our prime participant, and this kind of a really crazy, monstrous, no tax avoidance that marks energy agency has clear part of the node stream to gas pipeline from russia to germany for operation. more on that next from our europe correspondent. we're not quite there yet, but this is a step along the way to this gas pipeline eventually being up and running. what has happened is the danish energy agency has given its rubber stamp to the 1st string of the node stream to gas pipeline ad. that means that it has undergone air pre commissioning. it's also the hardest number of tests carried out on it, and it's passed those tests in the eyes of the, the danish energy agency. there's still some way to go yet, though, before the pipeline will be open running to its fullest extent. the 2 strings were tied together in the summer of lab this year. there was, of course, much delay due to sanctions and everything that came with that at all of the, the political wranglings they are now in the past. it would seem as we're into this stage of going through the compliance and certification

u. s. is actually a crime participant and this kind of a really crazy, monstrous, no tax, avoidance of what can you make of the lack of american names in the league so far as he said, it's not all out yet that they might still be there to come. but especially with jo biden's pledge to climb down on tax avoidance. and tax evasion. bear in mind that, that they, that delaware is one of the states which, which is most active in the use of the, you know, and then the use of a, of allowing foreigners to set up a phony corporate fronts and tax havens and delaware's, a small state on the east coast in the u. s. and who comes from delaware, joe, but i hope so. biden's career has been propelled by precisely these kinds of activities in the ukraine had twice as it had fact. they believe that $39.00 billionaires were listed among those nowhere. and in these there's the slightest revelation, joe biden, travel to the ukraine 2 or 3 years ago to claim that he's going to clamp down on corruption. well, you know, i mean the corruptions is crazy. there, as it was ever as these revelations, a show. do you thi

u. s. has actually reserve the rights over any of those decisions that they've made on his house, of course. and you have to look at the court proceedings because yesterday many a calculated unit started looking very bad in his mental health. clearly under this stress throughout yesterday proceedings, and we only have to his tele morris, the long suffering partner of judith sergeant said she was taken up by jeff, how he is and any explanation would be active. it can't amount to his killing. now, today, much of the session will also be used to present the new mamma revelations, with all the u. s. halogen officers reveal that the cia had even planned as high walled units. not as in london, ecuador, and embassy to kidnap him, or even assassinate him. plus they will try and push that argument back in january . that one of the witnesses will, the united states now know can be working at the time as an f. b. i, informant. not only broke cover, but actually admitted that he was lying during the court proceedings. not today, due to this on her lawyer, really basically say all about is i'm will evid

u. s. will actually default on obligations to other countries because we can always just print more money. we own the most, see where you all the god damn money. pretty much said we are there are we have on here job or body. even the guy who is the chairman of the federal reserve for 19 years. even he took the time to write up out of whatever crypt he was in to tell us . so the united states can pay any debt it has because we can always print money to do that. so there is 0 probability of the fall on top of all that congress could act to get rid of the debt limit. and even if that didn't happen, even if the house said, get rid of it, and the senate said don't. there is plenty of support for citing the fact that congress has given the executive branch conflicting instructions, and hence the administration and the binding ministration is free to choose which path it follows, meaning biden could get rid of the damn. that's haley as easily as someone cleans the poop out of his diapers. but there's even a more fund solution. one that highlights the stupidity of the debt ceiling, minting the tri

u. s. by the way, i is itself a major tax saving it. so incorporation laws are among the easiest in the world. so the u. s. is actually our prime participant, and this kind of a really crazy, monstrous no tax avoidance europe is on the brink of an energy crisis. gas prices continue to hit record high, surging to live at $1200.00 per 1000 cubic meters. i'm with winter looming, there were concerns over how the block is managing. the crunch shall advance. he's got the latest. there is a lot of finger pointing going on as the block faces this unprecedented energy crisis. that winter crunch is looming, and according to some, this is a problem that has been, is in the making. let's have a look at some of the main issues across europe at the moment. and we'll start here in france, where there has been a price increase this month of 12.6 percent in gas towers that follows several months of other rises deployment official cast, texas. it will not be a freeze and they will not be any more increases. but of course, that doesn't mitigate the months of increases that people have already seen on that household bills. then in spain,

it actually exists in poland in the, you know, obviously different situation. i mean, the u. s. states started out, theoretically, is independent polities, european states have been independent qualities for centuries before that and the u isn't quite set up like the u. s. it's set up more like the soviet union in the sense that brussels is supreme and all of these other countries can, can pretend that their sovereign can take the blame for everything that goes wrong, but can never take the credit for everything. anything that goes right, right. so whenever something goes wrong, it's a national government's fault whenever, whenever something goes right, it's the, it's the credit of russell's is how it works out in practice. you tried to sort of have this constitution that would turn it from an alliance of countries into a true supranational entity. and it got rejected. and referenda back in the arts, the i right famously had to vote twice on it until they got it right. and as then days sort of did an end run around people and made it an international treaty to make it easier fo

u. s. is actually several years behind china and russia in terms of hypersonic missiles begging the question. if united states and her allies cannot fight back in the same means at the very least, what can they do to defend themselves? well, let's bring on my cherry, a former army officer and republican crash, or candidate in nevada and johnston, ladies. geopolitical strategists and trilogy advisors. thanks for joining me gentlemen. thank you john. i want to start with you just because the chinese have actually had a successful test. does that mean the technology is actually ready to be used tomorrow? it's not. the chinese are involved in a series of tests that go back several years. as does the united states, which actually has been testing for about 15 years. so though that's much been ramped up in recent years, both by racy on and frankly, by lockheed martin, which i think currently has about 6 different hypersonic missile programs under way and expects to be able to produce hypersonic missiles between 20232026 of course russia really gave the world this technology starting the late 1900

because that will actually help shift the u. s. dynamic. the fact that the u. s. oligarchy are not name doesn't mean they're not using the same secrecy jurisdiction, shell companies opaque trust. they're using all the same tools. they just haven't been named in the story yet. you know, you've been investigating equality for years and, you know, say the big accounting firms for some of the biggest banks. how is it that they are so able to stuff whistle blowing within their organization? so, i mean, it's better than the u. s. army clearly. yeah. i mean, clearly there are big financial incentives to just keep your mouth quiet and stay. but you know, the fact is the system is cracking. there are people within that wealth defense industry who know what they're doing is harmful, that it's contributing to kind of the got rot of the political system and our economic system. and you know, there are younger people who are working in those companies who are right now, copying information on the thumb drives and not sure what to do with it yet. i believe that. so i think w

u. s. oligarchs being actually incentivized by cove? if they made a lot of money from it, haven't they? you've been talking about how much money they have made, just as all the gods made money at the opioid crisis, of course, which killed so many. yeah, no, i mean, i think one of the powerful juxtapositions right now is us billionaires have seen their wealth, go up almost 2 trillion dollars during the pandemic. this is an embarrassment, and this is, and you know, juxtaposed with the loss of life and the loss of livelihoods for so many people. that's where some of the populace anger about inequality is coming from. and there's a tiny segment, i think, of the oligarchy who, who understand this is a risk, or that actually genuinely like more, more spur bears believe that they should speak out for a more fair society. so i think, you know, you know, i think we're, we're, we're seeing a disruption to the normal politics. that doesn't mean that the rich aren't going to be able to block meaningful change right now. but i do think the pressure

u. s. is actually our prime participant, and this kind of a really crazy, monstrous, no tax avoidance. well, as you'll not re marchness to know what should the other news, europe's on the brink of an energy crisis, gas prices continue to hit record high, surging to over $1200.00 per 1000 cubic meters and with wind to looming. now there are concerns over how the blocks managing the crunch shell it depends. he's got more. there is a lot of finger pointing going on as the block faces this unprecedented energy crisis. that winter crunch is looming and according to summer, this is a problem that has been years in the making. let's have a look at some of the main issues across europe at the moment. and we'll start here in france, where there has been a price increase this month of 12.6 percent in gas tariffs that follows several months of other rises. the prime minister shall cast excess that will not be a freeze and they will not be any more increases. but of course, that doesn't mitigate the months of increases that people have already seen on their household bills. then in spain, where th

u. s. is actually a crime participant and this kind of a really crazy, monstrous, no tax avoidance. there's a crisis in the balance in the u. k. still, with petrol stations, they're still running dry and angry drivers forming huge queues from today than to tron. alleviated the u. k. government's deploying military personnel around the country to help ease the fuel crisis. a corresponding shudders, dusty reports from london is day 10. now of the petrol crisis situation and the united kingdom is still seeing many cars backed up outside of petrol stations, people waiting hours to fill up that tanks and even the public transportation is being diverted away to avoid all of this gridlock. things have gotten so bad now the minute tree has now been deployed and drafted in to try and get the fuel to the petrol station, i think is also really bold that we can actually call in the military at a time like this for that extra support to give that confidence and have a misha that's there as a precaution, because as i say, the situation is stabilizing. no one's going to pretend his completely back

u. s. is actually our. busy crime participant, and this kind of a really crazy, monstrous, no tax avoidance that europe is on the brink of an energy crisis is our prices continue to hit record highs on german electricity purchase. reagan shut down its power plant simply because there was no more coal. well, the country and other estates are also facing shortages of natural gas supplies. let's get more and i from charlotte to bin skins in paris forest across the story. good morning to charlotte. winter's coming and energy crisis is here. how is europe going to coat? that's the question. yes, well there's a lot of finger pointing across the you at the moment is the block is facing this unprecedented energy crisis. as you mentioned, winter is loom in the ears, him to scratch his head as to work out what it's going to be able to do. but this is been a crisis that has been v is in the making. let's have a look at some of the issues at the moment, and we'll start here in france, where energy prices have increased

u. s. u s. and china. so that's, i think, actually a very mundane, ordinary life to actually survival. the species promote the brand of milan of a to thank you. thank you very much. it was a pleasure talking to that's over the show will be back on wednesday, 51 years of the day of the f. b i. the rest of activist angela davis cooled a dangerous terrorist by president nixon. you can watch your interview on going underground, allow you to channel until then keep in touch with our social media. let us know what you think. the chinese economic model, good fight inequality. nato nation, when i was a kid and engagement with so many find themselves will support. we choose to look for common ground. ah, it was the month basically, but i still bagley's go. he did. who bought? i bought a dial. tomato, a couple of pretty then you know, quite by that i was from politicians to athletes and movies. does the musicals does it seems every big name in the world has been here last year? hope of misuse. marcus goes to school. oh and when you get the go for anything with what does not give me a glover new

and so this organization is actually an u. s. participation. and i think is actually running out counter to us interest. but because of his up, bureaucratic out, no running him. i really is go back to brussels, perry many, well, i, me, i've and just put it perfectly. i me do a reverse nixon goes to china here. i mean, as it is looking at it geopolitically and historically, if in europe, the european union wanted to position itself in a valuable place, it would be to, in to be in the middle of russia, the united states and china that, that, that has, that has assets that has capital to it, and it seems to me there hostile attitude towards russia negates that they've just taken themselves off the chessboard. what do you think? go ahead in brussels. yes, exactly. then if you look to geography of europe, of course, or the idea positioning of the european project, it will be in better balance between do you atlantic a neural asian seekers and there are about so much was the position of classic was ation of friends. for example, from bush in our da go

u. s. a. to actually impose a mandate for vaccine within its schools. it's a massive step in terms of california and politics. and the process though, is simplified in a way, a, by the fact that the governors decided to add the cobit 19 vaccines to the list of vaccines at the cuddly. california public health department already requires for school attendance such as measles, polio, mumps. these vaccines are already mandated cobit 19 is simply going to added at to this particular list. there are some 13000 school boards across the state, and they've actually written letters to the governor saying how much they are facing in terms of local school board meetings. some are described as utterly chaotic with some parents are refusing to allow the wearing of mass, certainly refusing any form of force vaccination. one must note that already in california, all to school children have to be wearing masks. all teachers have to be wearing mass. all teachers have to be vaccinated or face regular testing, but even these steps have absolutely infuriated large numbers o

u. s. administrations would release such data and the last release was in september 2017. as was mentioned in this press release. so the total number of warheads that the u. s. has is actually 5750. as you mentioned, $3750.00, and the active stock, 5 plus $202000.00 warheads awaiting retirement. and then if we compared that with the russian federation, they have about $4497.00. and then if we include the warheads awaiting dismantlement, they would have somewhere around $6257.00. that's tell a lot of warheads. i mean, i'm curious now about where this goes because on control is, talks were really stalled on the trump with russia. this is obviously quite the departure. how is the rest of the wild reading this, especially for instance, rom. well, i don't think it will make much difference in iran or north korea or india, pakistan or elsewhere. this is primarily between the united states and the russian federation. and to some extent, china given the increase and attention between china and the united states. also there is a nonproliferation review review conference coming up in january postponed from 2020, because of the trumpet ministration. really had a good while the c on nu

u. s. data is actually stored in china. now, i know when we're talking about how the trans ministration went after chic talk, how they said that they were going to ban it and really turned it into this movement. and then it kind of seem like it just evaporated and the thin air doesn't seem like they're still that push towards actually banning it from those republicans like ted cruz that could make some traction still. i don't. i'm not sure they're in can make traction. look, i think when, when trump pushed for this, it was somewhat shocking that he was essentially trying to force a cell. as you guys know, i was highly critical of that at the time. and the biggest reason for it was because should a us president, or, you know, the, any government entity for the company to be sold because its owners are, you know, may be affiliated with another government someplace. i think that's insane. does not make any sense at all, but there was a big push for that. and what was interesting was who we wanted to sell it to. we wanted it br
