Another ford visit to the white house overshadowed by domestic politics as the president of parent why sat comfortably in the oval office u. S. President donald trump railed against the democrats push to impeach him in congress for his dealings with ukraines president its a witch hunt its a sham its a hoax nothing was done wrong 0 was done wrong its a scam its something that shouldnt be allowed and its a very bad thing for a country and youre trivializing impeachment and i tell you what someday there will be a democrat president and there will be a Republican House and i suspect theyre going to remember that objection the committee has adjourned. But democrats argue trump abused his president ial powers for political gain the House Judiciary Committee voted to approve 2 articles of impeachment against President Trump the Vote Along Party Lines allege trump withheld military aid in order to pressure ukraine to dig up dirt on a political rival former Vice President joe biden trumps also accused of obstructing congressional oversight into the matter for the 3rd time in a little over a century and a half. The House Judiciary Committee has voted articles of impeachment against the president for abuse of power. And obstruction of congress a vote to officially of ph trump is expected next week in the house of representatives hell become just the 3rd president in u. S. History to be impeached trump was visibly angry following approval of the charges against him lashing out at those he believes have done him wrong like the woman overseeing the impeachment House Speaker nancy pelosi is a liar and others a dishonest fake media horrible f. B. I. People crooked hillary a fighting mood morphing into strategy spotted on the white house campus on friday trucks personal attorney and ally Rudolph Giuliani its a signal trump is pushing to call witnesses and expand the impeachment process he says has been politically biased against him even as the republican leader Mitch Mcconnell is pushing for a swift trial in the senate i think theyre giving the signal that this is really just a show trial that senator mcconnell knows where the votes are and knows how this is going to come out and he wants to have a very short proceeding so that they can move past this quickly but for in a tory asli thinskinned president the personal humiliation of a looming impeachment in the house of representatives appears to have only intensified Donald Trumps desire to fight back in the u. S. Senate in an attempt to clear his name can really help get aljazeera the white house. Lets look at the 2 most recent president s to find themselves in a similar position to tromso 1974 the House Judiciary Committee approved 3 charges against Richard Nixon but he resigns before a house vote then in 1980 bill clinton was tried in the senate on 4 articles of impeachment but was acquitted and he stayed in office and in trumps case as weve heard its almost certain democrats will vote in favor of triggering the senate trial process Trumps Republican Party controls the senate so its improbable that the 2 thirds majority required will vote to remove him from office lets bring in john f. Ing there he worked as a Communications Director for the Democratic National committee hes joining us from washington hi there thanks for joining us on the aljazeera news hour so if trump is it created in the senate which really looks likely what is the point of all of this its a great question i think there are a lot of americans asking themselves that too it is true it is very unlikely that the senate is going to remove donald trump nevertheless at some point after enough lines had to be were crossed the democrats had to do this for their own base if youre just talking about a political calculation at a minimum and i think youve seen this with whats bigger bill is doing shes focused on the one thing that is clearly unmistakably impeachable conduct theyre going to put this to a vote republicans are going to defend their guy thats fine at least democrats can say they honored their oath they did what they were supposed to do and move on so that next year they can talk about the Kitchen Table issues that voters are going to be more likely voting on in november but speaking of bases is there any risk at all the this is going to energize the trump base that this actually wont achieve what the democrats wanted to achieve which partly is not another 4 years of the trump presidency. Yeah absolutely i think there is the possibility that this energizes them but honestly it doesnt change that much democrats clearly thought this guys behavior was beyond the pale before impeachment theyll think that afterwards trumps base is going to be what trump space is going to be hes going to whip them up for next fall but if we can have a conversation about how his tariffs are hurting people how his tax bill was a disaster how when he controlled both houses of congress with his party all he wanted to do was to get rid of Peoples Health care if we get back to that conversation thats the conversation that democrats want to be having going into november theres a company they should actually read pretty. Apologies but i mean one of the conversations also thats being had right now is that in fact it is a Strong Economy in the United States and historically incumbent president s overseeing a Strong Economy dont tend to lose an election so would this be any different. Theres a theres a lot of numbers that measure our Economic Performance that are looking very nice right now there are a lot of americans that are not feeling that even though you having records in the stock market and unemployment is low what you see is that 4 out of 10 americans find they dont have enough money in the bank for even a relatively minor emergency you find that 6 out of 10 americans say that their household are living paycheck to paycheck so there are some there are some over performance but what you see is the lions share of that gains going to the very few people at the top of the economic ladder so there is a real restlessness and the opportunity for democrats to make their case on the economy if the democrats feel they can put the impeachment piece behind this thats not to say that this is a purely political calculation though it is absolutely the case that what this guy did is everything that the Founding Fathers and framers of our constitution were worried about when they wrote the impeachment clause and so you see a lot of real personal passion out of the democratic members here and its really fractured congress in a way weve never seen before because the republicans are are just not acknowledging the facts at this point and seeing the the the the plain as of their lying and the players of their refusal to acknowledge facts its really there is no good faith left and so how much of an issue is that for the democrats that you dont really have a single republican joining the democrats on this issue and we really see this partisan divide. Yes its huge we saw in the middle of october there was there was a nice old man republican congressman in florida who run a business and then run for Congress Later in life who said yeah im open to teaching President Trump we got a look at the evidence i dont know what happened in the next 24 hours after that but 24 hours later in outs he was retiring from congress he would not be he was basically made an example of and since then we havent seen much well see there could be a few brave souls in the senate or more concerned about history than they are about donald trump but by and large what we see is this Republican Party is in lock step behind and afraid of don in fact its part of why its so ironic that when they say well nothing we know what nothing went wrong because president selenski of ukraine said nothing went wrong well these guys know very well what its like to be under political pressure from donald trump and to say things they know arent true because of it all right we thank you very much john f. Ing her for joining us from washington and president something of a win on another front the u. S. Supreme court has agreed to hear his appeals in cases relating to his finances trump is trying to block the release of bank records tax returns and other materials there are sought by democrats in congress as well as a prosecutor in new york whos investigating allegations of corruption in trumps real estate business trumps lawyers say its just part of efforts to quote dig up dirt on the president s lets get more on this cross over to mike hanna also joining us from washington so what more can you tell us about these particular cases and the investigations. Well these are 3 separate cases that the Supreme Court has agreed to here they all deal with attempting to a deep dive into President Trumps financial records 2 of the cases involve congressional committees the 3rd involves the new york prosecutor which is in fact a criminal investigation undergoing there so certainly he has lost every single way in every court to this particular point the Supreme Court now at his request saying it will expedite a hearing to decide on the matter were broad terms concerning all 3 cases essentially what that question is whether or not a sitting president can be prosecuted or investigated lawyers are arguing very strongly that he may neither be prosecuted nor investigated while he remains in office but the lower courts have absolutely disagreed with this point they insist that he is not above the law its up to the Supreme Court novel to either reject the surgeon or to agree with it if there are precedents for this mike. Indeed iesus cases involving the separation of powers essentially and the rights and powers of a sitting president thats come up before both bill clinton and Richard Nixon attempted to block attempts to get financial and private details through and clintons case in particular through grand jury evidence now the courts in both nixon and clintons cases ruled very strongly that the president s on not above the law or the Supreme Courts at the time also agreed with these positions so the precedent that is there is that the president is subject to law now the important fact to notice as well is that its not necessarily the president himself subpoenas from congress and from the new york prosecutor have been directed to the subpoenas have actually gone to his Financial Advisors to his accountants so strictly speaking it is not President Trump himself who is being affected directly by this and this is going to be an important element to the whole case an element that the lower courts have pointed out very strongly so the issue here is that when the Supreme Court does hear this and thats going to probably be in march a decision could be expected in june but this is going to be right in the beginning of a president ial campaign so its going to have a massive political impact which is in a way why the Supreme Court has agreed to expedite this case and act on it for the Supreme Court very speedily all right am i can i thank you.

Mourning in the chair after the worst attack on its military in living memory. And tiger woods u. S. Team fights back at golfs president s cup peter as the action in sport. The u. K. Prime minister Boris Johnson<\/a> says its time to let the healing begin after his stunning victory in a divisive general election dominated by bricks at johnsons conservatives want to majority of 80 seats the partys biggest for 30 years and a clear mandate to take the u. K. Out of the new Charlie Angela<\/a> reports from london. Boris johnson is welcomed back to downing street. To the conservatives radically reconfigured britains political map with the biggest majority since the 1987 im proud to say that members of our new one nation government a peoples government will sit tight from constituencies that have never returned a conservative the. 100 years and yes they will have been able i mean mandate from this election to get it done and we will honor that mandate by general the 31st striking a more grateful note johnson thank labor voters looking sides his promise now to embrace all deliberate rexs i say thank you for the trust you have placed in us and in me. And we will work round the clock to repay your trust and to deliver on your priorities with a parliament that works for you i. But a group of young protesters gathered near downing street projecting his vision and briefly clashing with the police and was. Angered by the outcome in which the conservative party took dozens of labor seats in the countrys industrial north and midlands. Thank you very much for the labor leader its a rejection of his vision for the party he says he will not stand in another general election i did everything i possibly could in order to bridge the divide between those that voted to leave and those that voted remained because at the end of the day theyre going to live in a country where were going to need that investment for the future were going to have if this government stays in office more homelessness more divisions and more a bigger gap between the richest and the poorest it was a bad result thing for the program a liberal democrats their leader joe swinson unseated her constituency so she will step down immediately im proud that liberal democrats have been the unapologetic voice of remain in this election giving people the chance to choose to stop breaks that. Obviously it hasnt worked for Boris Johnson<\/a> his brief time in office has been marked by repeated defeat and Parliament Legal<\/a> interventions and desertions from his own party this result is better than he could have hoped for but his simplistic election promise to get bricks it done will now be put to the test with your post and lead the country through the most momentous transition since the 2nd world war charlie onto aljazeera and. The result has dominated discussions among leaders meeting in brussels and talk about lurks claims why theyre happy with the outcome. There was a huge sense of relief in brussels as e. U. Leaders arrive for the last day of this summit that finally there was clarity over what the u. K. Wants after months of uncertainty all agreed that what was needed now was to get on with brakes it next steps is stratified that would draw agreement which guarantees no hard border between north and south guarantees the protection the common travel area and also the fact that british and irish Citizens Rights<\/a> will be protected around the election by telling everybody that he wants to deliver so now its time for delivery. Leaders discuss the u. K. Election results in a special session if the u. K. Parliament ratifies a Withdrawal Agreement<\/a> britain could leave the e. U. On january 31st paving the way for a new round of negotiations between the e. U. And u. K. To reach a Free Trade Agreement<\/a> the use briggs a negotiator Michel Barnier<\/a> would direct the talks Boris Johnson<\/a> says that he wants a u. K. Trade deal with the e. U. By the end of 2020 was so many youth issues say that timetable is simply unrealistic and such an agreement could take years the timeframe ahead of us is very challenging we will get to have to work as soon as possible. We will be ready to get the most out of the short period of a levels but for me it is important at this moment to say that the United Kingdom<\/a> yes will become a search country but at the very end we will have an unprecedented partnership. Its been awhile since leaders have been upbeat about the blocks relationship with the u. K. But the positive mood could be short lived if johnson asks for an extension to the trade negotiation talks could drag on for years taking up more time if johnson refuses an extension and fails to reach a trade deal by the end of 2020 it could lead to a no deal breaks it an outcome that would be a failure for the e. U. After years of diplomatic efforts Natasha Butler<\/a> aljazeera brussels the leader of lebanons Hezbollah Group<\/a> is insisting the next government must include all political factions to tackle the worst economic crisis in decades the call comes as protesters continue to block roads and hold rallies in the capital beirut and elsewhere in the country politicians have been unable to form a new government since mass demonstrations forced Prime Minister<\/a> saad hariri to resign in october as well as his cabinet has learned supporters are fought with some protestors want lebannon sectarian political system overhauled.

Johnson says its time for britain to start healing the divide over after his conservative partys election victory the opposition labor partys heavy defeat has mostly been blamed on leaders. Who says theyll step down. So it wasnt just the conservatives who had a good Election Night<\/a> the Scottish National<\/a> party also made huge gains strengthening its calls for another vote on independence the reports from as. Shes almost certainly the most popular politician at the border now Scottish National<\/a>ist party leader nicolas is calling the city to grant scotland a referendum. On breaking away from the u. K. So to the Prime Minister<\/a> let me be very clear this is not simply a demand that i or the s. N. P. Are making it is the rate of the people of scotland and you as the leader of a defeated party in scotland have no rate to stand in the we. This was stooges reaction as the s. N. P. Took the seat of Joseph Wilson<\/a> the liberal democrat leader with 48 of scotlands 59 seats in the Westminster Parliament<\/a> they say the message to london couldnt be clearer. But in the scottish capital already home to the devolved parliament not everyone agrees that another independence vote is now more likely. Under left. So. I think youre i think quite honestly stop punishing scotland. Because referendum hopefully happens a stamen. When scotland held a public vote on independence 5 years ago the result was a clear no but in 20 sixteens breaks it referendum 62 percent of scottish votes were to remain with a no deal breaks it at the end of next year is still a possibility the s. N. P. Says its fighting to protect scotlands economic interests she says shes got a clear mandate for a fresh independence referendum and nicolas sturgeons determined to make the most of her moments but just how much leverage will she have over Boris Johnson<\/a> this expert says while in the short term little will change the direction of travel is clear the certainty would come after the Scottish Parliament<\/a> elections in 2021 would be really difficult for a u. K. Government to continue insisting a new referendum but i think it does show is a stark difference between scotland and england so Boris Johnson<\/a>s conservative party lost in peas in scotland but again im in england and i think it just highlights that stark difference between the political directions of 2 countries are going in. These are troubled times for the United Kingdom<\/a> we still dont know how close a relationship it will have with the European Union<\/a> Scottish National<\/a>ists hoping. We played today as.

For Northern Ireland<\/a>s pro nationalist parties returns more winning candidates than pro british unionist parties for the 1st time ever so now again goes in belfast and explains what this means. The Election Results<\/a> have delivered a victory for pro irish nationalist parties who for the 1st time in history ascending more representatives to westminster than the unionist parties particularly hard hit has been the d p partners with the conservative party in a confidence and supply arrangement of course underlining this election has been about one thing sit there now is certainly that may not be what everybody wants but least we know the direction were going but im happy with that now while that opinion expressed relief at the result lets not forget that Northern Ireland<\/a> voted to remain in the 2016 brics a referendum course that is because brics that itself underlines the very fragile nature of Northern Ireland<\/a>s status and the implications that it could have for its security and also for trades but the biggest concern for Northern Ireland<\/a> is that we could be looking at problems on the streets and coming from both sides but i think i think this a lot of this has been a nationalist and i dont really think a curve very much but more than an inch or 2 from it and underlying all of this is the fact that the Northern Irish<\/a> assembly has not been sitting for nearly 3 years and thats a complicating matters as the u. K. Exits the European Union<\/a> already there are calls from the sion same leadership for a board a poll on the status of Northern Ireland<\/a> making perhaps the idea of the union and a possible break up of it a reality.

This demonstration from the president ial palace protest against the shocking number of chileans who have been shot and the eyes of many cases blinded by riot police hit either by rubber pellets or by tear gas canisters and that is just run by margins that isnt quoted in the latest human rights report issued by the United Nations<\/a> the charges include rape sexual abuse illegal detentions torture little list especially of excessive use of force by the riot police.

I think. Hes the son of neighborhood ive known him since childhood when i heard his name i was surprised hes just a child how can they accuse him of. Some protesters blame the killing on infiltrators refusing to accept the possibility that other demonstrators could be capable of such violence. Yes but i mean. It has affected us it has brought about reputation upon us we went to protest peacefully we would never kill and slaughter anyone like that is the parties who sent infiltrators. On friday crowds in Tahrir Square<\/a> which has been the epicenter of months of antigovernment demonstrations were noticeably thin except for members of the sudras movement. The followers of shiite cleric that assad or have discreetly manage security throughout the demonstrations but in an unusually public show of force they marched on Tahrir Square<\/a> to make their position that theyre not we are human shield to protect peaceful demonstrators and refused a disgraceful act we expect those criminals who committed these awful crime to be punished and we are waiting for the other so theres all this.

S. That it was behind drone rocket attacks on iran and september. Has had a policy Analysis Center<\/a> for research and policy studies he says riyadh has realized u. S. Pressure alone wont stop the threat of iranian attacks. I think the september attack was a turning point in my opinion in terms of saudi arabia thinking about revising its its fun policy especially concerning iran and other many issues of course in the region i think the saudis they came to realize that its very difficult but it helps to rely on the United States<\/a> because they expected the administration to take a tougher position on iran especially after the attack on. On september the saudi the saudis actually did realize that the americans are not willing to engage in any sort of military activities against the iranians unless they have their National Interests<\/a> are directly affected by the. Iranians so from that time i believe they started the sort of. Trying to approach that iranians and in fact to him a lot these did it also exactly the same after that after that attack saw. The saudis right now are trying to ease the tension with the iranians because that would have served their interest much more than increasing the tension with them for humanitarian workers kidnapped by an armed group in northeastern nigeria have been executed according to the french aid Agency Action<\/a> against hunger they were part of a group of 6 people abducted in july near the town where armed groups including boko haram operate one was killed in september action against hunger is calling for the remaining hostages to be released.

Well armed a standing of Carbon Dioxide<\/a> levels in the atmosphere wouldnt be possible without a man named Charles Keeling<\/a> back in 1958 he began monitoring c o 2 levels a measurement thats known now as the killing curve he painstakingly recorded those levels every day for decades and now his son ralph has taken over the job my father came to scripts and i think 956 with the task of measuring carm dockside different places around the world you 958. 00 he was getting readings of around 310. 00 parts per 1000000 now were up at. Almost protein 415. 00 parts per 1000410. 00 or more. So its really its just really rocketing up the Main Operation<\/a> in my lab as in my fathers lab involved sending flasks these are glass to the ears out into the field that are filled with an air sample and sent back and then we analyzed it in the lab it established as a matter of fact that humans were impacting the planet in a global scale model or record in particular has become known as the Keeling Curve<\/a> was already clear in the fiftys in the sixtys in the seventys the core problem is the burning fossil fuel burning more and more decade by decade its not like we understand this problem and are starting to curtail its like youve got a weight problem in your response is to eat more and more you have to go back millions of years before you find levels of highs today and that was a a world with a very different climate. I think whats really changed in the last decade in particular is people starting to feel the weirdness of the climate around them in terms of Freak Weather<\/a> crop failures and so it is its lost to some of its remoteness its starting to creep into peoples lives i think its going to get kind of rough to be honest and i dont see how we get around this without serious consequences and the sooner we understand what were facing and started doubting to it and reducing the of the problem the better off well be and sadly its taken a long time to get there.
