As 3 policeman escaped charges for her death. Long running protests in thailand forced parliament to delay plans to amend the constitution. And can the World Leaders get the Climate Crisis back on the un agenda or is the opportunity for change melting away. Senior republicans and democrats are pushing back against donald trump after he refused to commit to a peaceful transfer of power in november the president has repeatedly caused doubt in the legitimacy of mail in ballots i dont buy it and say it was a vase of when asked about the possibility of losing the election. Well have to see what happens you know that ive been complaining very strongly about the ballots and the ballots are disaster and the people arriving committed to making sure that theres a nice little word for all of the want to have get rid of the ballots and youll have a very transfer will have a very peaceful there wont be a transfer or frankly there will be a continuation of the ballots out of control you know it and you know who knows it better than anybody else the democrats know it better than anybody else the. Senate Majority Leader Mitch Mcconnell was among republicans who weighed in on twitter saying but one of the election will be inaugurated in january after an orderly transition just as there has been since 1792 white House Speaker nancy pelosi who is a democrat says the president should alter his duty to the constitution but that a president of the United States would place in doubt the idea of the peaceful transfer of power and well its no surprise because the president has been contemptible of science and government. Im going to speak to a White House Correspondent kimberly hold whos live for us in washington d. C. Perhaps not unexpected response to what the president has to say how we havent seen anything like this ahead of an election. Not in modern history not a president ial historian so i cant say definitively but certainly no one has brought up an example going back to the start of the Founding Fathers and the 1st presidency is where there has been a president that has refused to leave or essentially left that possibility hanging out there now the u. S. President for his part we should point out in terms of his statements this is been a consistent theme that the president has said even back as late as 2016 he was asked a very similar question about whether or not he would accept the results whether or not there would be a peaceful transition of power when he was running against Hillary Clinton the that time in fact he did say look at you know what well have to see this is a point that he reiterated as recently as july so this is not a particularly surprising comment from the president but it is an unnerving what because the peaceful transition of power has been a cornerstone of american democracy from the beginning and the fact that we now have a president saying that he may not accept the results of the election in fact cheerily to himself saying he believes there will be a continuation has left many voters feeling nervous in an already divided and polarized United States Committee Thanks very much and stay with us because donald trump has been paying his respects to the late Justice Ruth Bader ginsberg on the Supreme Court. He received a less than warm welcome when kimberly tell us more about what happened. Yes so the president was booed as he trying to pay his respects to the late Justice Ruth Bader ginsburg of course she is revered by so many in the United States particularly women for her championing equal rights and for womens rights so there was a very large presence of her supporters who were standing outside the court as there have been for many days as shes been laying there in repose that were there when the president came with the 1st lady standing behind that flag draped coffin and as you heard there as the crowd became aware that the president was there they began to shout vote him out but also honor her wish the wish there were furry too is that of the late Justice Reportedly conveyed to her granddaughter in her final moments or just before her death where she had hoped that her replacement would be named after the u. S. Election given her death so close to the vote it was her belief support reportedly that she felt the American People should have the opportunity to choose a president and that president then pick make the pick to the Supreme Court we know the u. S. President is not honoring that wish in fact he is casting doubt on it saying that his constitutional duty is to name a replacement for the justice and that will be happening on saturday so this is only added to the tensions preelection for Many Americans and again it made for a very tense moment outside the Supreme Court as the president 1st lady or paying their respects kimberly thanks very much thats criminal code side to the words i was mortons in d. C. Well to another top story in the u. S. In a mans been charged with shooting 2 Police Officers during protests over the death of briana taylor. The demonstrations broke out on weapons day after it was announced 3 officers from louisville wouldnt be charged over her killing the decisions sparked outrage with rallies across the u. S. From new york to washington d. C. A los angeles in the black medical worker was shot dead in march and police opened fire as they raided her apartment only one of 3 officers will face any action 3 counts of endangering taylors neighbors briana taylors killing is just one incident in case after case of Us Police Violence against black people last month protests erupted in kenosha wisconsin after jacob blake was shot in the back 7 times he survived but hes paralyzed Michelle Brooks was shot dead in Atlanta Georgia in june as he ran from police the officer who opened fire has been charged with murder in may george floyd died and minneapolis when an officer knelt on his neck for nearly 9 minutes the killing triggered protests worldwide 4 officers have been charged floyds last words i cant breathe what an echo of eric garner 6 years ago he died when a new york city policeman put him in a choke hold his death helped launch the black lives not a movement and made icon to breathe a rallying cry was jacksons an associate professor of history and africanamerican studies at Georgetown University he says the u. S. Judicial system has failed yet again. As the brother toad it is going to look at this is going to get is they would have planned was founded. I dont know in advance will be i mean we were hopeful. Oh oh decent people i think hope will but i dont know placard say the banks didnt act anyways then it did but the charge was just so simple i think from point out the want them charged the wanton disregard was charged against Police Pursuit ing into an apartment above night and briana kills apartment for shooting into a white Person Department happens all the time so what happens now i think that every civil rights leader every labor leader every ringback womans leader every every progressive leader has to get on some type cause and do 2 things call for a massive turnout in this of particular direction but here the other thing and i think this is worse mr president who states said yesterday that regardless of what happened in this election he would not accept it so in essence he is calling for balance hes calling for civil war this is just catastrophic in the news mean others are not paying attention to it and say this on a on the eve of a verdict i would not accept what the American People say you see so so you know nothing surprises me that when it comes to this decision i do expect. Good people to come out and peacefully protest but balance. I think that that by the attention to want to want to max takes away from the balance of killing this young single black woman want to marry in her apartment as she lay in bed nothing is more balanced than nothing is more fundamental than a right to live in your home in peace. Thailands parliament has decided to delay discussions in whether to amend the constitution protesters have been rallying for hours outside parliament in bangkok because politicians debated possible changes now the latest in weeks of demonstrations calling for reform of the monarchy and an end to military involvement in the government the Prime Ministers a former military chief to lead a coup 6 years ago while in haiti has more from the capital bangkok. These protesters once again came out in big numbers on to the streets of the thai capital bangkok this time outside parliament to try to apply pressure on the members of parliament and also the 250 senate is to vote for constitutional change something that these people have been calling for for months now and a large protest that they have been holding so what we have seen inside over the course of 2 days is approaching 6 different proposals from Political Parties were presented to those m. P. s and senators for discussion those proposals looking at various changes to the constitution that process was supposed to culminate in a vote on those constitutional changes instead we have a vote but the vote was to postpone this entire process for at least another month while a committee can be formed to take a closer look at those constitutional changes all those proposed changes that vote to postpone was led and called for by a Senior Member of the ruling party so its certainly not going to go down well with the antigovernment protests and is likely to lead to even more larger protests in the weeks in.
