Recently when asked to condemn the proud boys President Trump instead asked them to stand back and stand by both the director of National Intelligence and the f. B. I. Head ive been accused of attempting to downplay russian interference allegedly in accordance with the president s wishes but russia was also named 1st we have confirmed that some Voter Registration information has been obtained by iran and separately by russia this data can be used by foreign actors to attempt to communicate false information to registered voters that they hope will cause confusion so chaos and undermine your confidence in american democracy barack obama had been warned of russian interference in the months leading to the 2016 election won by President Trump but the only thing apparently on his mind on this day was to catapult his former Vice President to victory physically campaigning for the 1st time displayed the charm that made him a 2 term president. Very good. I have to say because of my. Sexual. Physical. But a full throated attack on President Trump he hasnt shown any interest in doing the work. Or helping anybody but himself and his friends for treating the presidency like a reality show that he could use to get attach it was no coincidence that the bar most 1st appearance in the Campaign Came in the capital of pennsylvania barack obama took pennsylvania in 200820128 was flipped by donald trump in 2016 the state has a high proportion of African American voters and joe biden and his Campaign Managers have identified pennsylvania as the single most important state to win if he is to make his way to the white house.

There is concrete evidence now there apparently have been several dozen at least if not more emails that were afforded to intelligence and Law Enforcement authorities in the various media knowledge of regular citizens with threatening threatening emails from a stance of we the problems which is a White Supremacist Group that. Donald trump actually had nice things to say about in the debate the couple of weeks ago so i think there is evidence whats going on however are several levels from the level of foreign intelligence activities against the United States i think we have caught the iranians doing things and as the director National Television said and in the Intelligence Community of you know us and said for years the russians are substantially more active even doing disorder thing when you when you listen carefully to how radical resented the information he said this information was this operation that we have stopped was intended to discredit donald trump that is completely wrong thats the exact opposite of what is going on the 1st met a jack to the arena and the russians and which is to undermine american democracy so that we are not functioning and no longer of an effective rival or a check on their their own operations the 2nd thing that theyre going to do is to donald trump in radcliff muddy the waters on. Thailands Prime Minister has cancelled an emergency decree of banning protests tens of thousands of demonstrators have mostly ignored the ban for more than a week they say theyll continue to them on the Prime Ministers resignation and for reforms to the monarchy lets go live now to bangkok officer scott height scott so has this to creep in lifted because its no longer a quiet over because its completely failed. Well agent you know if there are 2 ways of looking at it definitely i mean you would have to say. On the face of it yes it has failed because they have come out every day since last thursday when that emergency decree was announced thats because there were protesters right outside the Government House the seat of power here in thailand and they use that decree to clear them out it was done peacefully then we saw a little bit of violence on friday but every single day since that decree was put into place there have been protests on wednesday evening last night the Prime Minister in a taped address televised address he said that he would consider withdrawing that emergency decree that is just for bangkok he said he consider withdrawing that if the protests were violent if it remained peaceful and it did last night there was another protest and outside the Government House where they actually presented a resignation a draft Resignation Letter to. The Prime Minister because one of the demands for these protesters is that he resigns so they presented that to him and then the morning we heard the word that it would be lifted and that happened just 2 hours ago now what it did is it banned gatherings for a more people could not gather together and it also gave the Police Authority to shut down the metropolitan Public Transportation system here as well as detain and arrest people and we saw the at least 80 arrests over that week but that has been lifted so i guess the way you can look at it is its a deescalation but again what the original ban was supposed to be for it really wasnt doing it but whats interesting when you look at why these people are coming out on the streets they want change but there also is part of the population here they want to remain the same. Oh i. See it all with say leap started speaking out against the government 6 years ago. Thats when the current Prime Minister led a coup that ousted the democratically elected government hes now working with the protesters who have been coming out to thailand streets by the 10s of thousands the demonstrations started in july and ramped up last week with a gathering every day whats different now from 6 years ago a call for reform of the monarchy. Last essayed in the Royal Institution condy night that if we dont talk about and want to keep openly people would cost about it eventually they want to and the senate will have 2 choices if they use filings like they did in the past on change and purcell festivus unwavering in his mission to bring about reform and change he says he was attacked last year for being outspoken beaten so badly he spent 2 weeks in hospital but hes not stopping. And im proud to be reluctant to tell the world that i am a tie we have been taught to obey and not question authority i fear that we were blinded in the past when i am the thousands across the country are working to put that past behind the scenes like this are grabbing attention across thailand and across the world expressing the desire for monarchy reform something unthinkable even just earlier this year but there is an opposing view and its not just limited to Government House or the palace. Wearing yellow showing their allegiance to the monarchy those who support the king have also held rallies over the last few months theyve been much smaller but some supporters say that could change water wrong educate was a member of parliament with the largest conservative party but lost his seat in last years election to a program for party candidate. I think there are more people who disagree with the current protests on the streets but we must be patient i believe that we will see more movement. Those who want to protect the monarchy but it will be peaceful but i think the voice of the young people in the students are a minority. Regardless of the actual numbers and either side of the issue there is no dispute that the voices are getting louder of those who want change and to shake up thailands long established power structure its got harder aljazeera.

Thousands of fish washed up in this canal at the beginning of this month 2 weeks on the remnants of what mohammed says was an unprecedented environmental disaster can still be found. I used to fish for personal consumption but many others sell it to earn a living this is impacted just very badly this fish is sold in the market but now people have to buy fish from the fish farms or ones imported from outside the country. The Irrigation Canal feeds into the lake and care about the province and other communities downstream have also reported significant fatalities among their fish stock employees from carolus veterinary hospital took samples to investigate the cause. According to the lab analysis and with the visual examination by doctors there is no bacterial viral or fungal disease we had particularly suspected it might be due to herpes disease but all the lab results were negative the visual diagnosis by the veterinary doctors for the water and the fish samples suggests its related to environmental factors only but its not our mandate to investigate them for Community Elders the culprit is clear they accused the local government of dumping sewage into the river the incident coincided with the annual religious pilgrimage to the nearby holy city of karbala which draws millions of visitors every year similar the less severe cases of contamination occurred during previous years also around the time of the pilgrimage so.

The fishermen themselves. This is not a fish farm these are normal fish which occur naturally in these canals but the fishermen fish in an improper way and some. They threw harmful material into the water that kills or poisons the fish. The governor downplayed the significance of the pollution this is not a big issue its just some fish in the canal and its far away from the provincial capital but for iraqis who depend on these waters for their livelihoods the pollution could be life changing. Farm boarders the canal told us that several of his family members had breathing difficulties following the contamination he also worries about his farm and livestock.
