A new front of paint and in champs including where he says a white wing extremism and summative. Goff its good to have you with us the u. S. Supreme court has blocked congress from obtaining President Trumps financial records for now but for federal prosecutors the court has paved the way to see trumps tax returns the rulings mean that the public will probably not see those returns however before the november elections the justices today ruled that a new york prosecutor can have access to the president s financial records including his tax returns manhattans District Attorney calling the decision a tremendous victory for the u. S. Justice system but a lower court will also have to decide whether or not those records will be made public. Are for more im joined now by our Washington Bureau chief told for more on these 2 rulings day good evening to you ian is so one of the Supreme Court rulings today against trial so what what what did the justices decide. Well you know i think 1st of all its really approved that checks and balances on this power remain in place and that is kind of the really the clear and strong message from todays ruling but when we look a little bit closer its getting more complicated so why did the judge just say they said yes prosecutors will have the right to have a look into his tax returns into his financial records but before that can happen a wall court has agreed to that and then it can take weeks months probably right after much longer than the election days so it means that we are facing a phase of waiting and probably the only hope many people have theyre waiting for someone to leak some information so that the fight public finally learns what what do you know what is in these tax records you know thats a good point because the public probably will not find elton till after the election the president. Victory today didnt he. Well in the way he did because no he had he can be pretty sure that the democrats dont get the information they were so eager to get because they wanted to shore and during this Election Campaign they wanted to play hardball they wanted to prove that donald trump might be involved and dirty business is with countries which he shouldnt do that he had some difficulties and others in other places so they were hoping for that information and they didnt get it so you can say yes that is a victory for the interim lets take a listen to what the White House Press secretary said immediately after these rulings were handed down it is a big way and its just cavanagh noted that all 9 justices said this needs to be remanded back to the lower court and that in fact the attorneys vance i had not established his ability to secure access to those records instead further proceedings are required. So obviously this what we expect to hear from the white house theyre going to try to make their spin this to sound like a victory but could what was ruled today by the court could could that still do damage to the president. I mean you know it finds President Trump in a very difficult situation and we know there is still this huge crisis going on he doesnt have any plan how to handle the coronavirus we have more than 130000 americans who died of the virus the hospitals are totally over and now with this its not over and maybe some information will gladly and maybe we will learn something over the course of the next weeks which will really harm President Trump his polls are going down so it doesnt find him in a good moment and he most definitely would have wished that the Supreme Court would would really have a clear decision that it would be from the table but this is not what was decided today today. Good point to make it anything the president has one more time with these rulings that is for sure in his poll in washington as always thank you our lets take a look now at some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world police in Seoul South Korea say they have found the body of the citys mayor park one soon in a wooded area north of the south korean capital his daughter reported missing hours earlier saying that he left a phone message that sounded like a last will and testament mr park was reportedly facing allegations of sexual misconduct. Australia has suspended an extradition agreement with hong kong after china imposed a National Security law giving it sweeping new powers in the territory Prime Minister Scott Morrison said australia would also extend visas for skilled workers from hong kong and he said that the country wants to lure hong kong businesses to australia and the dutch Prime Minister mark root is the 1st head of and the e. U. Government to meet uncle americal here in berlin since germany took over that you counseled presidency on july 1st the 2 leaders discussed implementing a controversial e. U. Recover refund proposed by france and germany which has been proposed ahead of next weeks e. U. Summit. Germanys interior minister and domestic security chiefs have released a report profiling crimes committed in germany last year they concluded that the biggest danger facing the country at the moment is right wing extremism. The security threats in germany amount of fault with one area still a particularly high consensus the german interior minister. Let me start off with the area of right wing extremism racism and anti semitism this area is the greatest threat to security in germany. Nothing is change that on the contrary the number of offenses the number of people linked to right wing extremist circles and the number of violent far right extremists has increased further. To extremist used. A number of particularly brutal far right acts made headlines over the last year in 29000 pro migration conservative politician violet and look good was killed and a gunman killed 2 people in an attack on a synagogue and holler in february this year a gun man shot dead 9 people in hama. Some 90 percent of anti semitic acts in germany are far right motivated the report lists around 8000. 00 more right wing extremists on the radar of german intelligence agents compared to last year that spike in numbers in part comes from the authorities putting the socalled good of the party under observation an unofficial grouping of far right politicians. But opposing politicians want the whole party to face scrutiny. Is not the entire a 50 but it has spread across the entire a 15 the frugal is deeply rooted within the f. T. Which is why it would be important to put the f. T. As a whole under surveillance because there are traces of the few good everywhere. And. As far as security is concerned left wing and islamist terrorism remain the 2 other big threats Cyber Attacks and espionage also play an increased role readiness to commit violence is growing on all sides. As a society we must be alarmed that the threshold to commit violence has been declining steadily that the number of violent acts has risen exorbitantly and that online we are witnessing the rise of a front of hate in contempt which makes the im speak of all acceptable and paves the way for violent acts in real life. The german interior minister stressed that no previous German Government has been as active in its efforts to combat right wing extremism 3 far right groups have been banned they say here alone new special units within the agencies have been founded and a special Government Committee will hand over its findings to the German Parliament next spring well our political correspondent. This report. Back to. Germany. Exactly and what the reports makes very clear is that the biggest threats of all when it comes to germanys security even foreign agents left wing terror always in terrorism in the but far right carries i mean if you look at the rhetorical the far right here in germany that was spreading conspiracy theories for years against migrants for example is specially after 2015 and a wave of a xylem seekers outreach germany one of the far right that kept on saying that and to send it to behavior was imported in germany by mostly migrants but if you look at the report you see that over 90 percent of those and to 7 take attacks in germany stemmed from far right sounds and not from most in Community Communities and wholesale for the interior minister to say that he used a very Strong Language and say that it was a disgrace that end to 7 season was on the rise here in germany of all countries referring to germanys nazis past and responsibility in the holocaust. Well the emphasis that the government is putting right now ease on trying to tackle new forms of extremism before efforts directed towards identifying isolated individuals or terrorist cells outside to see if they already know and thats it needs to be way more difficult to do and the reports also highlights the threats represented by those individuals especially if they are in possession of weapons for example as a something thats taken very seriously are threats that are being sent by email or post petition girl who was murdered last year had received such threats and of course bomb threats i was so taken very seriously and beschloss for examples such as the one established by the far right terrorist group north quads which hath plan to target pounds of left wing for the titians jan that is the activists helping refugees for example so to focus of authorities right now is very much on those terrorist cells.
