that's always really hard to say rebecca what i can tell you is that support for the ruling united russia party is dropping one of the state pollster is this month found that it reached just over 32 percent that's a record low the lowest number that they found since 2006 and that's one of the reasons why the united russia party candidates are actually running as independents in these upcoming moscow elections they don't want that label even to be attached to them and i think you can really sense that across the country there have been protests about a variety of other issues as well in the north of the country there were protests against a planned garbage dump there were protests against the unpopular pension reform so really dissatisfaction with the ruling party and with the government i think is on the rise emily shown in moscow thank you very much for that update. turning to hong kong now where hundreds of thousands of protesters faced off with riot police today to find wardens to stay home the demonstration took place in the neighborhood where a violent mob attacked pro-democracy pro-democr

discontent over the economy and standard of living in russia both against the president and his united russia party. there are 2 arguments here one is that protests in the house will start happening when life actually gets better and when people i can't think most all of the above our bread bread and butter issues but can think about why the political opposition is just russian economy has been growing in there as was the billions in sales life has been better and we see more progress and that has been an act of russians about the brand over the last 20 years the city does or does not know how to what it was they don't all see a position that does come better than but constructive social force bait i afraid all scenario which they seen in the ukraine i doubt very much recently in france challengingly show ah that's how you start small protests which seem to be peaceful one day and the other couple of shanks and you say in place so that's what they have been my and that's why they are reacting but less than a bit in the by the now so that little of how i missed evils. of every thank you for your tim

find me at the presidential elections but what i can tell you is that support for the ruling party united russia has been dropping just this this month a state. a state pollster found that it is shopped to a minimum of just over. 30 percent we've just heard a loud bang behind us i'm not sure what's what's going on it's all possible to you and yet you know you please please go somewhere safe thank you very much. thank you . let's go to hong kong our police are cracking down on protesters they've been marching to demand action against gang attacks on pro-democracy demonstrations police are clearing crowds using tear gas and the district of u.n. long war protests took place despite a ban by authorities this area was the site of violence last week as men in white t. shirts attacked pro-democracy protesters and bystanders demonstrators are angry about the slow police response to those attacks hong kong has seen months of protests triggered by a controversial extradition bill. joining me now is our correspondent munty has burning in hong kong as you've been at this protest this morning now that night

what i can tell you is that support for the ruling party for united has been going down recent surveys in july showed that their support for united russia is actually at an all time low at just over 32 percent and. the even the party itself seems to know that because in these upcoming moscow elections all the candidates running for united russia has actually have actually decided to run as independents so they aren't branding themselves with that potentially damaging label of united russia and i think there's a real sense here in the country with protests as well in the north of the country against a planned garbage dump with protests against the the pension reform which was very unpopular last year that people are dissatisfied with the government at the moment so much that much is clear and we shown in moscow thank you very much. i'm promise when you're watching news up next how the moon has inspired pop music our documentary explores and i'll be back with more news at the top of the hour next on. the money which of course a. video or. any time anywhere.

united russia. all united russia candidates are standing as independents. what is the significance of that? united russia, navalny, has been labelled. and therefore united russia is now a matter of shame. so there is a new partyis really defending the regime. this authoritarian clapped chrissy, which is rather difficult to defend, but it doesn't mean that it will break now. you have mentioned other protests that we have seen in the past. will anything necessarily change this time? not necessarily change this time? not necessarily —— clapped chrissy. most of the protests have been about construction projects that have not been appreciated by the people, and they have been very local in nature. but we have seen more protests, more dissatisfaction. the real disposable incomes of the population have fallen by no less than 13% in the last five years. so people are getting tired of the regime, and putin looks increasingly bored and tired. sometime, something will happen. but we don't know when. suddenly a build—up of —— certainly a build—up of pressure there. thank you for your time. hong kong has been engulfed by huge anti—government protests for nearly eight weeks now, and it is still unclear how china will react

russia is a preeminent threat to the united states is an idiot. i'd be happy to talk to anyone about that. that's a bee line of the democratic party. that russia is a preeminent threat to the united states. not jenna, not google, not a bunch of other countries, not the saudis, russia. and that's insane. actually. "twitterstorm" dick cheney's said what -- >> tucker: i don't care what dick cheney said. >> but he's not a democrat or even a stupid republican on congress but you can disagree with him, but he's not alone. he will let me ask you a question peered rather than go back into the past and try to prove acts of various religions, i want to it with few sounds from your speaker of the house, nancy pelosi. alex arthur ran onto ran into her on the hill and answer, do you think trump speaks treason he is what she said. [indistinct question] >> we are in the courts are now. >> are you any closer to figuring out what pruden has on from? >> that's why we need to have the answer to our subpoena. >> do you think we might have some sort of blackmail the president? >> i wonder what putin has pulled a clay, financially personally. >> tucker:

now they get they cannot come with a united states because france france is part of the moment member of security council i think other parties as well like russiafor example and we know about the american made weapons so there's security council it will find it very very difficult to implicate some of its members at this point however i think because of the consistent. policy has been a disaster like the french policy indeed. partly the u.a.e. and then egypt. has been haven't achieved the so-called stability warlord but in his tribe a coalition did not work that way so i think what would happen is unofficial the you may see some steps back from assisting this and realisation that perhaps the initial u.n. peace plan was a better idea than continuing to support that so-called enemy a tribal pollution that by a warlord was who proved to be extremely incompetent militarily on one end but also consistently violating the laws of.

party or the p.k. came 2014 the group is deemed a terrorist organization by turkey and the united states with russia while aim has more from their appeal on the investigation. investigators now have some answers regarding who assassinated turkish diplomat awesome on costa and why the shootings which took place in erbil restaurant on wednesday and killed a total of 3 people were all caught on security cameras now police are widely distributing a photo of a man they say is their primary suspect he's one of a team of 3 people that investigators say with inside the restaurant to execute this hit his name is muslim dag he is 27 years old he's from a car turkey it's a kurdish region in the south of turkey sources say that he joined the kurdistan workers' party or p k k in 2014 the p.k. k. is an armed group it's deemed a terrorist organization by turkey and the united states this morning turkey conducted air strikes at a p.k. k. training camp on the outskirts of a town called more they believe that dad was there 4 times last week and that he had trained there and that there was a possibility that they may have h

party. even today on wanting to punish turkey, a nato member, for essentially going to russia for military help. and here the unitedtates would like to sanction turkey. and president trump is begging them not to. look, i'm not saying there's a direct line here. but how does these dots not get put together in and at least raise an alarm bell or two? >> well, i don't know that they don't. there are a lot of conversations out there. but i think that right now you have this equilibrium -- disequilibrium in terms of the debate format. and so if you take, for instance, the mueller testimony of the other day, democrats had, in essence, to charge the hill and they had to try and prove obstruction or conspiracy of some sort which is a tougher rhetorical debate to get your arms around, particularly if you have a witness that's not going to lead you in that direction. they just wanted to question process. so i called a friend on the way over here, and i said give me your take of the mueller report and hearing the other day. his point was what it told me was that mueller was not really in charge. and it raised for me a whole l

germany, russia and china are still members, specifically they say they'll enrich uranium, the key ingredient in developing nuclear fuel above levels agreed to by all parties including originally the unitedtates, it'll be the first time iran breaks with the deal according to nuclear inspectors and america's allies in the region, no word today from the trump administration but reaction here in washington is breaking down along partisan lines, republicans insist the trump team has got everything under control. >> they've been breaching uranium. donald trump has been consistent in saying stop the spread of terrorism and make certain that iran does not have nuclear weapon and that is the goal and we are going to continue to support that. gillian: democrats put the blame squarely on president trump's shoulders. >> but when donald trump became president iran was no longer 2 to 3 years from breaking out to nuclear weapon, 2 or 3 months, they were more than a year from being able to break out nuclear weapon based on our intel, based on what the israelis said, now they are enriching again. >> iran's government is blaming the united states as well as european a motions for failing to live up to th

united party which is supporting the president. i'd them to see more action from congress and move some of our policy agenda forward, but american people, these polls are showing 0% of them think that russia is a factor that they want to hear about in the upcoming election. they want to hear about making this country even better.. lou: if they were genuine, concern about electoral integrity, the democratic party would be at the forefront of efforts led by the republicans to assure that citizens are registered to vote and that all citizens will be permitted to vote. but they're working in precisely the opposite direction as you well know. this is a party of hate and expressed in so many ways, whether dismissing our borders or dismissing immigration laws, whether it's dismissing the integrity of our electoral system. and then these alligator tariffs form on their cheeks when talking about russian meddling or intervention in our election. it is all pure bull. >> you left off your list political violence on the street 74. which is inspired by aoc and her cohorts. i am very worried about the upcoming election and the absolute lies from the democrats. whereas divided as ever but i think the maj

russia. she tells them or talks to them as u.s. america. here is the other part. when you are president of the united states, you become the standard barrier for your party.le to bare that standard. instead of the republican party keeping him true of the conservative movement, he's transforming folsundamentally w it means to be a republican and that's a dangerous zone. >> something i want to hit on is patriotism. there is a big debate as why he's using this word to justify what he's saying here. is that the correct use of the word patriotism? >> so first of all, a couple of things, john. what i want to tell people is we are in a massive remaining battle. democrats on the left is trying to form trump as racist. what he's trying to do saying the left and democrats are socialists and un-american which leads you to this country. what about patriotism. the problem of what i have of what the squad is doing, we are a nation of immigrants where we come here to make us grea great -- what we are seeing is fundamental disagreements. the chief of staff came out recently the green new deal is not about climate change, it is about restructuring our economy. what they w
