Mrs al jazeera live from doha it was a coming up extra powers for Security Forces in honduras after violence over stalled president ial election results. They will find the palestinian chief negotiator warns against any u. S. Recognition on jerusalem as a capital of israel. Plus lebanons mountain of waste beiruts struggle was rubbish becomes a human rights issue. A former Senior Advisor to u. S. President donald trump has admitted to lying to the f. B. I. About his contact with russia Michael Flynn is the First Administration official to be charged as part of a criminal investigation by special Counsel Robert Mueller the former National Security adviser says a Senior Member of trumps Transitional Team asked him to reach out to russias ambassador to the u. S. Before the president s inauguration a move that is not allowed his guilty plea shows flynn is cooperating with immune investigation could be an important source of information for prosecutors investigating others in the white house a white house correspondents can be held at reports. Arriving at federal court in washington Michael Flynn ignored shouted questions by reporters. Inside moments later the former National Security adviser to President Donald Trump pled guilty to lying to the f. B. I. Court documents show the charges against flynn stem from his lying about efforts to obtain advance knowledge of how foreign governments might vote on a u. N. Security Council Resolution about israel as well as phone conversations flynn had before tribe was even sworn in as president with the former Russian Ambassador to the United States surrogate kislyak. Flynn is said to have suggested to kiss leon sanctions put in place against russia by the Obama White House maybe dropped once trump was sworn in and they did not discuss anything having to do with the United States decision to expel diplomats or or impose a censure against russia flints lies to the Vice President about that phone call led to his dismissal after just three weeks in office in a statement trumps lawyer said flynt false claims mirror the false statements to white house officials which resulted in his resignation in february of this year nothing about the guilty plea or the charge implicates anyone other than mr flynn but his plea in fact may directly tie the oval office to the investigation by special counsel Robert Muller and whether or not the Trump Campaign worked with russia this suggests that mr flynt has more information to provide about other things the white house has lied about other things the president himself may have lied about and whether or not the white house including the president himself colluded with russia according to the former f. B. I. Director james comey trump once asked him to drop the case against flynn and despite claims by the president s lawyer flynns cooperation with the f. B. I. Probe shows that most investigation is ask. Could lead to charges against an even bigger target including the president of the United States kimberly helped get aljazeera washington bruce fein is a former u. S. Justice Department Official and constitutional lawyer he told aljazeera why this case could be of great concern to the trump administration. We know that mr flynn got a relatively minor charge that carries maybe a prison term of less than six months in a fine thats clearly lenient in youd expect that mr moeller would have done that only if he expected something in return namely cooperation which would lead to other dominoes to fall moreover mr flynn had indicated later that someone high up in the white house directed him to speak to miss the ambassador of russia and the only persons who would have authority in my judgment at that level would be those who are acting at the direction of the president himself the speculation is that gerrard questioner was the intermediary between the president mr flynn but the idea that gerrard questioner on his own initiative a junior official whos got no experience at all in government seems utterly ludicrous and that all means that the finger is pointing more and more towards mr trump suppose that mr flynn now testifies under oath that he acted in speaking to mr kosilek at the direction of jared questioner and now that brings then question or into the play and question or then is going to be asked well who spoke to you because we know somebody of that youth and inexperience is not acting on his own a question or at that point could plead the fifth amendment or he could implicate the president one of the hazards that i think mr trump confronts is that hes so narcissistic he doesnt really have friends who are inclined to go the extra step to try to save him from peril he almost alienates everybody because he throws them under the bus and teach them as disposable furniture if he doesnt need that many more so thats going to be a real problem for him because in many of these cases its interpretating intent its interpretive motivation and what people say and in read from body language can be critical here and i dont think mr trump really has a whole lot of allies on that score Security Forces in honduras have been given extra powers to stop violence. Followed a disputed president ial election one person has been killed in scuffles between police and opposition supporters and Dozens Injured a clear winner is yet to emerge from sundays vote present this is now only ahead of opposition candidates. Has claimed electoral fraud and call the supporters on to the streets recent soldiers im posing a nighttime curfew for the next ten days. The forces and the National Police acting in a prudent manner in accordance with the law. On the people to maintain peace and calm to stay tolerant and to not from and hateful sentiments vengeance or division among the whole people. Thousands of people are expected to join a rally against germanys far right if tea party which is gathering in hanover to elect new leadership the demonstrators are against the anti migrant anti islam party that captured nearly thirteen percent of the version almost one hundred seats in parliament and septembers general election coleader frock a pear tree quit. Just days after the action to form her own breakaway party its gearing up to oppose chancellor Angela Merkels yet to be formed government now the f. T. Will be germanys official Opposition Party if im going to merkel enters into a coalition with the social democrats the f. T. Wants to introduce a proposal to repatriate Syrian Refugees this will be debated in parliament but is expected to be voted against by all other parties controversially the far right party also wants to honor the german army which has been traditionally kept out of politics since the end of World War Two and the coming joins us from the german city of hannover talk us through those pictures were looking at a little earlier on the protests what happened. Well jane protests is that the police are expecting or several thousand protesters we saw birds several hundred yeah Party Convention say you know it where the Party Convention is being held as the leaders were driving those protesters were running to try and block the leaders from coming they have vowed to stop the some six hundred delegates from reaching the Convention Center but these are far left protests is police are taking no chances with frankly where im standing right now i can see comic relief that i can see protesters there are helicopters buzzing our overhead they have several water cannon Trucks Police horses ready to move in if things do get much more tense so far we havent seen anything more than minus scuffles as these protests. Move to block the late is coming in the mood is where i will to get to the Convention Center where theyre going to debate their Party Platform and elect a new leader. But to us more about this election and you know what it means the Bigger Picture here politically. Will this actually jane comes at a rather sensitive time for german politics angle Americas Coalition talks collapsed with my coalition shes now entered into forming a grand coalition with the social democrats the s. P. D. Party now this is the coalition thats governed germany for the past four years but what it would effectively do is make this far right party b f t in terms of numbers the most powerful opposition in the german column and this is a watershed moment for germany because this is the first time that a party to the right of the conservatives have actually entered the bundestag since World War Two and so many people are saying that a grand coalition while it would be good for stability in europe while it would be good for continuity and debility for germany would actually have these repercussions of giving an opposition role to the far right party now whether that translates into. A policy platform that moves german politics to the rides that supports the lists of fearing much is being made about that however the f. T. Has its own internal struggle that were going to see play out during this conference their leader petry off to the election step down saying that the party was veering too far to the right so at this conference the partys very much deciding its are an ideological fight will it become much more of a right wing party via shop lead to the ride or will it become something thats more palatable to more people in germany. That enters parliament and the more moderate forces will prevail so were going to see that as it unfolds this weekend thank you. Pope francis is wrapping up his asian tour way funny used the word to him judging a mass on friday the head of the Roman Catholic church blessed people during a gathering for young people in bangladesh is capital dhaka the pontiff has been on a six day trip to bangladesh where the International Community hoped hed address the six hundred twenty thousand range of fled violence in Rakhine State he didnt specifically mention the ethnic minority until day five of his childs traffic is more from the other kind of a long camp in bangladesh where many of them live the decision by the vatican for the pope not to use the word regain judge earing his three days in myanmar had cast a dark cloud over this asia trip but only in coming to bangladesh and reaching those range of refugees that have travelled from this camp to dakar to see him and on him listening to their horrific stories of suffering inside myanmar and inside these camps it seems there was little choice for him but to mention them by name and of course this is generating a lot of positive publicist see about this crisis but the practical to the practical challenges that these people are facing remain i mean lets look at the facts in the last week or so the Bangladesh Government or the myanmar government to come together and putting together a plan what they describe as repatriation of attention the hundreds of thousands of ready to back into myanmar now these refugees still still do not have citizenship still have no more rights than they had when they arrived they are terrified about potential of having to go back and many of them have lost property family members have been killed this plan being put forward suggests that. The region she will be housed in temporary camps close to their property much of which as i say has been destroyed so while this visit by the pope and his decision to eventually call the ranger by their name is generating a lot of good publicist see for the course here the real practicalities about improving the conditions and the future of the ranger remains doubtful so head on out the door for football as well kept reveals a past match up well have the details from moscow.

News has never been more available its a constant barrage of it every day but the message is simplistic you have the brain of a good logical rational people versus crazy monsters and misinformation is rife dismissal and does not hold well documented accusations and evidence is part of genocide the listening post provides a critical counterpoint trying to Mainstream Media narratives at this time on aljazeera.

The u. S. Senate has passed a bill to overhaul the tax system the first major changes in more than three decades no democrat voted its a key political victory for President Donald Trump after his administration won the support of republicans weve been holding out on friday the house of representatives have passed a separate version so now must meet the senate to agree on a final bill critics say the bill will add one trillion dollars to the u. S. Budget deficit in the next decade William Black is a professor of economics and law with the university of missouri and kansas city he says Congressional Republicans were desperate to get the key provisions of the tax bill through. The paradox is that the republicans have actually gotten weaker in congress and that now has more power over them than he has had it any point in the presidency and that to his strength comes in part from the very weaknesses weve talked about that they Congressional Republicans are now desperate to have something passed anything thats the first part the second part is they are particularly desperate to get the key provisions of this bill through for their donor base and the donor base of course these are the wealthier people and this tax cut is overwhelmingly going to go for the wealthiest americans and the donors are saying pass this bill or dont come back to us for more contributions and then basically the key political fact is that trumps base is still with trump and that trumps base is what turns out in primary elections so Congressional Republicans dont fear democrats anywhere near as much as they fear trumps base in the prime republican primary and trump has played on these theories quite well well economists say that this is going to add only theyre a tiny amounts in terms of growth theres a clear consensus among economists so overwhelmingly this has nothing to do with growth and everything to do with redistributing income again towards the wealthiest americans and investigation into White Nationalist violence in the city of charlottesville found major failures by Police Forces the White Nationalists were rallying against the removal of a confederate statue in august when scuffles broke out with anti fascist protests his report says a lack of preparation and coordination by police led to a failure by police to respond to the violence prop eight also found an officer had been removed from an area where a car late at plowed into a protest is killing one woman.
