Fellow donald trump has officially launched his campaign to be reelected as the president of the United States speaking had a launch in the key state of florida trump attacked his political opponents and doubled down on his Campaign Promises from 2016. Were going to keep it better than ever before. And that is why tonight i stand before you to officially launch my campaign for a 2nd term as. Our White House Correspondent Kimberly Halkett has more from the Campaign Launch in florida. Oh as donald trump officially kicks off his 21. 00 to the election big year you know landover not even notice that this is going to be an Honest Movement one that starts in a very competitive battleground state and continues to spread across the country donald trump argues that there wasnt enough enthusiasm to be contagious hes highlighting would he says are the achievements of the past few years in office not only that hes delivering on his Campaign Promises he says he would a hard line immigration policies were directing the wolong the southern border of mexico but also creating jobs the was challenging continues to make the argument that the special counsel Robert Muller in his probe into whether or not Donald Trumps campaign for good with russian dogs was that is that exonerated him the fact remains that the report says that congress should continue to investigate something that the democrats in the house of representatives continue to do theyre not only looking into that but also investigating his business and his campaign these are the challenges donald trump will have to overcome the for now he is every basking if you will in the enthusiasm of the 20000 that have filled this are really about something that he hopes will build momentum all the way to election day so as trumpet launches his bed for a 2nd term hes under pressure on several fronts including growing calls from within his own party for his and patrons i have decided to support impeachment investigation of the president. I have not come to this easily i come to this decision after much deliberation and i know deeply what this means for our democracy i cannot with a clean conscience ignore my duty to defend the constitution i cant claim to be committed to rooting out corruption and putting people over politics and then apply those same principles and standards in all of the work i do thats face to joe watkins who is a republican political strategist and a former white house aide to george w. H. W. Bush joining us live from philadelphia thanks very much for speaking to us joe watkins did you hear anything new in his message at that Campaign Rally in florida when he announced his intention to run for presidency once again. He said basically what i thought he would say which is and ive been saying this for a while now ive said on aljazeera in the past that the president is going to course the voters know that hes made good on many of the promises that he made back in 2016 when he was a candidate for president the 1st time and hes going to say look at what ive done ive brought you tax reform or tax form and youve seen in decades look at the economy the rate of unemployment is low its been in 50 years look at what ive done in terms of trade ive renegotiated a number of the trade agreements not shaken up all the trade agreements that we had that i didnt think were in the United States favor and look at what ive done in terms of trying to piece together a relationship with north korea and certainly improve relations with china and then stop the flow of Illegal Immigrants ive worked hard all those things im going to continue to build the wall hes saying and but ive made good on a number of the promises i made to you in 2016 and so thats what hes going to use this is rallying cry in this 2020 election hes going to say why would you fire me when ive done all the things you asked me to do but then what how do you explain his his low Approval Ratings currently the latest figures that weve seen around 44 percent and the latest polls in fact right before this reelection announcement show that hes trailing behind the democratic candidates. Thats right joe biden certainly looks at this point very strong certainly is posting strong numbers against the president in a number of states a number of key states so thats something for the campaign to be concerned about but the president will point to the fact that he has a very very solid base that base maybe less than 50 percent its hovering around 3940 percent of americans but its very very strong very committed and as you can see tonight very enthusiastic for him and what he has to win of course is he won last time were those independent voters people who are not going to show up at these rallies and cheer for him but people who save themselves well you know what at the end of the day the economy is better than its been in a long time the rate of unemployment the lowest its been 50 years and we dont want to go backwards the president s made good and doing away with the individual mandate in health care and a number of other things so we may not be thrilled but what were going to vote for that is unless democrats are able to offer a better alternative other than the fact that they dont like the president but is also enough and that becomes a challenge from the democrats right right but its his base enough now to get him through this 2nd round especially with you know these growing calls for impeachment. Well the president s been able to use the growing call for impeachment to his advantage at least with his base by saying again and again theyre bringing these charges against me and theyre unsubstantiated charges that theyre trying to get me and its us against them because im on your side he says and hes saying that its the politicians its the fake news those folks are the ones that wont be out in that are. Building up the case for impeachment that being said its not likely that the said it would ever vote to impeach the president now with a republican majority and even then suppose you the speaker of the house is hesitant to make the impeachment the centerpiece of a 4 strategy to win the white house in 2020 shes sticking to her guns and say well lets do the investigations but lets not center on impeachment because she knows that impeachment will probably be a losing a losing battle for democrats all right joe watkins we thank you very much for speaking to us from philadelphia. The u. N. Has demanded a thorough independent investigation into the death of egypts only democratically elected president Mohamed Morsi there was a high security presence and he was burned at a cemetery in cairo rather than in his hometown as his family had requested journalists were kept away from the Borough Service that was held a day after he died in court 67 Rights Groups complained that much he was tortured after being held in prolonged solitary confinement and having access to medicine restraints.

This is the least the International Community should do after the very years so many years of negligence yeah of the good video stores for taking care of any. Turkeys present treasure typepad john attended one of the special prayers in istanbul he said there are doubts about this case and blamed egyptian president dr fatah 160. 00 for moshes death and that of other dissidents. When im sure i do not believe that morsi is death is a natural one such cowards that they are they did not hand over Mohammed Morsi is body to his family that iran has spoken out strongly against ages 2013 military coup that toppled morsi especially after turkeys own failed military coup nearly 3 years ago seen m.

The events of the death of. The legacy of egypts only ever democratically elected president is a legacy that goes beyond egypt and one that will continue it will not be forgotten here as far as these people are concerned Mohamed Morsi did not want to represent a significance because he was the president of egypt but because he was the only democratically elected 11 who represented the aspirations of selfdetermination of freedom by being that 1st president chosen of the gentlemen 25th revolution in the presence of people like Khaled Meshaal and others is also testament thats morsi was seen as a champion of other causes like the struggle for freedom in palestine and other causes like the Syrian Revolution and so forth so prayers like these taking place in doha as well as malaysia turkey and other countries is testament thats the legacy of the morsi not only lives on through the die a Small Community of egyptians around the world but also among the other arab and muslim communities who are seeing Mohamed Morsi that champion of the local rust. The u. N. Special operator is due to release her long awaited report into the murderer saudi journalist. Later on wednesday in early findings i guess kalam are said the killing of the saudi consulate in istanbul last october was premeditated how so how about a reports. Shocks he was killed 9 months ago his murder and the whereabouts of his body remain a mystery. But the gruesome descriptions from an audiotape turkeys shared with World Leaders caused an International Outcry and calls for the perpetrators to be brought to justice it all started on october the 2nd when Washington Post columnist. And the saudi consulate in istanbul to retrieve documents for his upcoming wedding this is the moment he entered the building a few minutes later he was killed by a hit squad sent from saudi arabia. The murder strained relations between turkey and saudi arabia turkish officials accuse the kingdom of stalling the investigation and undermining efforts to find out what happened inside the consulate. Called for an International Investigation that was rejected by a. U. N. Investigator and special report. Has investigated the case. Was denied access to the saudi consulate but her team listened to an audiotape detailing kashyap says why not moments really interesting will be if she doesnt name people and its the same as the 5 people apparently on trial at risk of their lives in saudi arabia or the few names of those and so i think the alternative is named people that it will in some way implicate the state as a body and that much more difficult to tie down to a criminal charge it becomes it is much more diffuse and less for the activist or for turkey to grab hold of maybe maybe he did they did not make that assessment the Trump Administration made a few statements denouncing the murder of hostility but states short of taking action but 22. 00 bipartisan members of the senate called for an investigation into how. The cia believe calm principal. Ordered the assassination if there isnt and same in regarding the killing its going to put more pressure on the trumpet ministration overall but its not necessarily going to make them decide to cut ties in terms of military funding to saudi arabia it will help feed in to the pressure from congress in particular and congress is likely to use that as an argument for cutting future weapon sales to saudi arabia 500 trump is trying to bypass. Congressional approval for an 8000000000. 00 arms sale to saudi arabia the move was widely criticised by the congress after initially denying any involvement in. Saudi arabia acknowledged the journalist was killed after a flight broke with the people he met of the consulate saudi arabias narrative about how she has it changed over time from denial to acknowledging the journalists murder was premeditated but the u. N. Inquiry team are still trying to figure out what exactly happened on october 2nd and if the order to kill. Came from the highest authorities in riyadh. Is the border the u. S. Secretary of state might compare her stop saudi arabia from being added to a list of countries that recruit child soldiers for his decision goes against the state departments recommendation based on news reports and Rights Groups assessments they say the kingdom hired sudanese children to fight for the u. S. Backed coalition in yemen for militaries on the list are banned from receiving u. S. Aid training and weapons glencora was the former Deputy National Intelligence Officer for transnational threat that the cia he says pompei as move reflects washingtons changing alliances in the middle east in recent years. There is a long tradition in the United States that the standard position for many years of u. S. Policy has to side in these sunni shia tensions the saudi iranian tensions in the middle east with the sunni president obama change that policy it was an historic shift its debatable whether it was wise or not i personally think that it was but thats certainly legitimately debatable and trump has gone back and then some to aligning with the sunni and the saudis now theres an added fillip for twist to this which is that its less on principle and policy by trump as it is apparently for a personal enrichment jarrad his son in law whos handling issues has clearly been seduced by the saudis and the alignment is is with saudi is another reason to that thats happened and that is the u. S. Policy is closely aligned with the release mimics that of the likud party in israel which. Is very hostile to around i think there will be pushback from the democratic majority in the house of representatives and the democratic minority in the senate but the senate is remains controlled by the Republican Party and the republicans have almost literally to a person sold their souls and align themselves with donald trump so congress cannot do too much. More ahead on the hour including. Me. We are. They survived brutal conditions in libya and. We hear the harrowing stories of migrants arriving in.

Records are broken at the cricket world cup by the big hitting hosts peter details and sports. But 1st canada has approved a plan to expand a Controversial Oil pipeline the 7000000000. 00 project will link canadas landlocked oil fields to a major reports its faced off from indigenous communities and environmentalists construction is due to start next year but its expected to be hit with several legal challenges the transom out the pipeline has been in operation for more than 65 years we approved the twinning of that pipeline so running a single additional pipe alongside the one thats already there this project has the potential to create thousands of solid middle class jobs for canadians people in b. C. Alberta and right across the country would have more opportunities to earn a good living lets speak to the poor of burma and shes joining us live from new york shes the International Program director at stand earth thats an Environmental Protection organization with offices both in the u. S. As well as in canada thanks very much for speaking to us on the aljazeera news hour youre against this pipeline whats your biggest concern. This pipeline would facilitate the expansion a significant expansion of the tar sands in canada the emissions just from the production of the oil alone are the equivalent to putting about 2200000 cars on the road this is going to facilitate Significant Oil expansion and oil and gas are the fastest source of emission Fastest Growing and largest source of additional in canada it means that canada wont be able to meet our climate targets heres the thing though trudeau say. Hes actually committing to directing money earned from that pipeline to investments in Clean Energy Projects what do you make of that argument that hes putting forward. The fact is the market is moving away from high cost high carbon oil which is what we have in canada and demand is softening many countries around the world are banning the fossil fuel car and thats why investors pulled out of this pipeline in the 1st place so our federal government bought it is using 7000000000. 00 of taxpayers money to buy this pipeline and build the expansion they could be using that 7000000000. 00 directly to Fund Clean Energy without increasing pollution if a wealthy country like canada with a stable democracy cant do our part to address climate safety when were all experiencing the rise and floods and fires then who can we need canada step up to the plate and address Climate Change and expanding Oil Production and building new pipelines is not the way to move away from fossil fuels how do campaigners like yourself then take this fight forward because environmental campaigners organizations groups all saying that this project will not go ahead without a fight. The fact is there have been many approvals of pipelines keystone x. L. Northern gateway in canada none of them have gone forward because what were seeing is growing opposition its not just environmentalist and indigenous nations who are opposed to this project its 19 minutes apologies its the city of vancouver the city of burnaby the province of British Columbia so there will be more legal challenges there are already protests there were hundreds of people in the streets in vancouver tonight and you know it remains to be seen but i think this program this project will continue to be challenge to we are continue to try and delay it and hope that our government will see that we need to invest directly in clean energy at this moment in history and not build more fossil fuels i think the fact is canada like many other countries our climate politics are being held hostage in by the oil and gas industry a very powerful lobby that is pushing to expand at a moment when we know we need to move away from fossil fuels rights as a poor a birman we thank you for speaking to us from new york. A vessel carrying 75 migrants has been allowed to dock and after being stranded off the coast for nearly 3 weeks the country has seen a rise in people seeking sanctuary after fleeing from libya on the sinai.

S. And e. U. Will react to our concerns stuart was an attorney at the Electronic Frontier foundation he says facebooks currency will be less like bitcoin and more like regular Payment Systems. They spoke is under more scrutiny from National Regulators then probably at any time in its history and its kind of hard to imagine field that they could go into that would attract more scrutiny for regulators than payments particularly crypto currency is no way to tell whether it will be more or less secure than Payment Systems that already exist whats interesting is that the defining feature of a crypto currency is that they are decentralized what facebook is announcing today sounds quite centralized although possibly in the hands of a consortium of companies my guess is this is going to end up looking a lot like existing systems and its really just going to be a matter of who.
