For more and more migrants are risking a dangerous new atlantic route from africa to europe via the Canary Islands. And a planets transformed into an uninhabitable hell a un report says World Leaders are failing in their duty to stop climate disaster. I know we start in the United States where divided senate is pressing ahead with the confirmation hearings for Supreme Court nominee Amy Kearney Barrett just 3 weeks before the president ial election she was nominated by President Trump and her confirmation would increase the conservative majority in the Supreme Court and fisher has been following events on capitol hill in washington d. C. The goal to have him equally bonneton the u. S. Supreme court before the president ial election the 1st step the Senate JudiciaryCommittee Hearing kicking off 16 days after her formal nomination from the Committee Chair a lament that politics play such a big part in nominations now the bottom line is Justice Ginsburg when asked about this several years ago said that a president serves 4 years not 3 theres nothing unconstitutional about this process this is a vacancy this occurred 4 years ago republicans refused to even hold hearings for judge meant garland normally did to fill a vacancy caused by the death of a conservative justice no hearings in an Election Year be insisted judge amy corney by its nomination will almost certainly imagine from the Committee Even if democrats boycott the final vote that will send it to the fill senate for confirmation and thats where the democrats are going to do what they can to stop this going through to republican senators have already said they would vote to confirm the democrats are hoping they can use public pressure to flip to others to block a vote in the fool senate and theyre using what they see as a threat to the Affordable Health care act due to go to the court one week after the Election HealthCare Coverage for millions of americans is at stake with this nomination republicans finally realized also on the committee the democratic Vice President ial nominee kamel hardass who insisted the senate should be dealing with more pressing issues than the Supreme Court said it may be Crystal Clear that russia has a court nominee. Its more important that helping and supporting the American People who are suffering from a deadly pandemic and a devastating economic crisis and nothing but truth so help you god and then it was time to hear from amy cooney but it herself she said quote cant right every wrong i chose to accept the nomination because i believed deeply in the rule of law and the place of the Supreme Court and our nation. I believe americans of all backgrounds deserve an independent Supreme Court that interprets our constitution and laws as they are written so no the lines are drawn for the Committee Republicans believe they have the votes democrats believe they have public support the next 2 days will be contentious contrary and politically divisive as the Supreme Court becomes a political battleground in the president ial election Alan Fischer Al jazeera washington she was outside the Supreme Court where protests were held as the hearing began. A very small but determined group of protesters both for and against the nomination confirmation of i me here outside the Supreme Court. Theres a games to go to make next interesting and white house suits one of the many objections they have to the proceedings is that no one was required to have a curve a test before the hearings took place and this article im talking to one of the organizers here but all in love with us. Whats at stake for you during this confirmation hearing. Right now the focus is on a confirmation hearing when he should be about the American People she knew about people who live in america we need to make sure you have a relief package that includes Health Care Income for people who have lost their jobs that supports businesses that supports child care so your point is there should be hearings and people suffering they should the focus should be on and on people who live in america not a court but what about the confirmation itself. And what about that yes this is not the right person i think we need to make sure that. Worry about going to be on the Supreme Court versus that thinking about all of the needs of the people and we need to be fair if you can look at her record her record has not been fair shes been very. Conservative in all of her rulings so now with this going to make it more conservative im concerned about the a. C. L. U. Theres millions of people who are on if it is unconstitutional people will not have coverage. Preexisting conditions will not have coverage she says obamacare the health care thing but is there a sense that youve lost this battle that she will be confirmed well its not over until its over its not over yet no vote has happened and were going to continue to resist and as long as there is resistance we have to define or when we are standing up for what we believe in and that we are putting people 1st we need to be an example of what needs to happen in america people need to be before politics and we need to make sure that people who live in america are taking care of the. Must continue to fight i do very much and there is a sense that perhaps the republicans do have the votes this confirmation will go through but theres also a sense that the democrats didnt fight as hard as the republicans might have if they were in the same position all the various democrats immediately met with a mccain about for example whereas president obama nominated his choice for a chief justice for justice rather because even so theres a bit of frustration with the democrats terminations if i dont anyway the white house doctor has confirmed that President Trump has tested negative for corona virus comes as hes about to go back on stage in the florida city of orlando for his 1st election rally since his diagnosis he made an appearance although not an official Campaign Rally at the white house on saturday his own tweets in which he claims he could not be immune from the virus have been flagged by twitter. On the gawker joins us now from miami so trump has got his doctors note just in time for the. You know it couldnt have been timed better this is coming from a doctor that many people dont trust but we have to take this at face value and President Trump is now back where he likes to be rallies meeting his base supporters hell be in orlando in Central Florida are a vital part of this state in what is a the biggest battleground state in the entire nation with 29. 00 Electoral College votes and there are lots of swing voters and independent voters in that area so him hitting the road again i think is seen as vital as we run down to the election at the beginning of november but i think people will be watching him tonight to see if hes changed his attitude having hardcoded 19 and got through it to see what he says in regards to how his administration has handled it and how his experience may have changed him i think its pretty doubtful that he will say anything unexpected hes already talked about having covered 19 is being some kind of gift from god in that he may be immune now so i think well hear that kind of rhetoric but for the president this is a very important thing for him personally he will be hitting another 3 states iowa North Carolina and pennsylvania over the important states over the next few days so people have been gathering in sanford just outside orlando since 5 oclock on monday morning keen to see their president once again and his speeches and his rhetoric will be watched very closely indeed i think what about his opponent whats he been up to. Well joe biden is in toledo ohio another very important state which President Trump took easily back in 2016 hes been talking to auto workers hes been touting his economic plan his experience during the economic troubles of 20062007 incidentally joe biden will be here in the state of florida on tuesday once again showing just how important this state is he has a very thin lead in this state which donald trump took in 2006 by the narrowest of margins and joe biden incidentally has said that president hitting the campaign trail again is reckless and irresponsible behavior and of course hes been talking about the trumpet ministrations handling of the entire covert 19 epidemic saying that he if he becomes president would do a far better job and again i thank you very much.
