The white house in large part because of the huge efforts to mobilize voters here in philadelphia and pittsburgh in the suburbs of the commonwealth of pennsylvania and it paid off what we saw then is so aversions erupted all around the downtown area there were cars honking their horns motorcycles made lots of noise and people dancing in the streets spontaneous celebrations that lasted for hours the people of philadelphia feeling very very proud in the very unique position that they were in to put their own native son in the white house lets bring in Adolfo Franco he is a lawyer and was adviser to senator john mccain he joins us now from washington d. C. Good to have you on program again mr franco tell me why. Why is this team trying pushing ahead with this occasion when all of the experts that weve spoken to say the likelihood of overturning the result in the necessary number of states is slim to nil. Well with all due respect to the socalled experts i dont know who they are and the media do not decide the elections in the United States its that states certifying that the results not one state has asserted for the results and President Trump was still president and there is no president elect until that happens so the president is currently with unless im reading our law loping correctly the president s within his rights to assert his privileges and demand that the election be certified in the interim more importantly even challenge the irregularities in the things we believe the law has not be complied with small specifically and. And pennsylvania so unless im missing something kim. Aljazeera fox news in New York Times dont decide who the president is the people that certify elections do of course the president is within his rights to to go through the courts to push this all the way you mentioned there pennsylvania the secretary of state there says that the number of mail in ballots that have been received after the election was so small that they wouldnt make a difference anyway so whats the point. Well 1st of all she doesnt shes a partisan democrat she doesnt get to decide that either the that has not been campus or certified more importantly i think you have not reported on is that the Supreme Court of the United States has already intervened Justice Alito in the Supreme Court has ordered the segregation of ballots that are received in pennsylvania after 8 pm on Election Night november 30th november 3rd im sorry to see of those are valid and should be counted those are hundreds of thousands of ballots and that could absolutely shift the election in the other direction so what it is for us concerning is that everyone seems to be brushing aside our legal challenges we believe the law has not been following believe whats happened in pennsylvania as unconstitutional the Supreme Court a signal of such a decided 44 now has 9 justices so lets see the process through unless the mob once to decide who the president is now we have we have absolutely been reporting that decision out of pennsylvania that is the only legal battle now facing are currently facing the Supreme Court justices havent actually said whether theyre going to to hear his air this appeal yet have they. Well they have signaled that and ill tell you why of the decision on pennsylvania it was decided before they had 9 members and it was decided 4 to 4 which means 4 justices have already raised concerns about the constitutionality of the record of the pennsylvania law if theres a 5th with not just as amy barrack may become a barrier that means that the pennsylvania law would be deemed unconstitutional in all of those ballots that were counted after november after the november 3rd would be invalid ok thats very unclear i mean the test has just s. S. L. For the justices self when she was appointed you know really made it quite clear that shes down the line she doesnt play politics thats what she says but youre right this will likely make its way there could make its way to to the to the Supreme Court made some took the lead but when the we have to correct you the 4 took the other 4 justice to decided that this was unconstitutional theyre not playing politics any more than the democratic control of pennsylvania the state Supreme Court decided that it was ok to change the rules on constitutionally so absolutely 4 justices have already decided that this it is unconstitutional so i dont think this is a political question you just and you in the media just want to jump to a conclusion with all due respect no conclusions being jumped to care if we look at the numbers and we look at the numbers as they are now does that not mean that the Republican Party should in some i mean both parties but were talking to you from the Republican Point of view should the Republican Party look at be looking at itself looking at its own future and looking at whether it distances itself perhaps from donald trump when this is all said and done. Are you kidding me donald trump has won 48 percent of the vote to date the popular vote in the country number one secondly he has received more votes than any sitting president in American History thirdly most of the down ballots the republicans had a very good night we should do a program on that and what happened in the congress in the house of representatives in our state legislatures and in the senate which will whole they predicted a big blue wave didnt get there and thats thanks to donald trump if the Republican Party distances itself from donald trump it will be doomed and thats why you have not seen any republican come out publicly calling for the president to concede almost no one has done well we have we have the usual our own wires the thing you feel our allies we have seen if you when you talk about getting the highest number helps them up what were talking about the highest number of votes in the popular vote i mean joe biden got 74000000 donald trump 17000000 or 70. Get around i around 70000000 yes but i dont mean to interrupt you but i think its important for your viewers to understand number one. Biden as did Hillary Clinton who lost the election received more of the popular vote thats not the way our elections are decided as you know but president has received more votes than any sitting president in our history more than president obama and more importantly if you put a 100 people in the room 48 of them have supported president trop 52 have supported biden is that a mandate. To promote bind over more important to answer your question because you have a right to ask your question is that a signal for us to abandon President Trump he received percentage wise more of the book than mitt romney or john mccain so why would any of us abandon our president. Ok ive really good to get your face back to we do value all perspectives that we appreciate your time i love being on with you we have very say a talk with a friend of their former adviser 2000 on the cane that think you can.

The despite big Good Relationship<\/a> Trump Administration<\/a> the Trump Presidency<\/a> has not necessarily been good for indias trading relationship with the u. S. Where the u. S. With a trumpet ministration removed india from the list of developing countries which received special trade status trading status or the Trump Administration<\/a> imposing the many restrictions on a type of working visa which indians are the biggest beneficiaries of so i think the Indian Government<\/a> will be looking to see whether any of those policies whether theyll be a change in any of those policies with a change in administration but they will also be wary because joe biden and coming to have us have been speaking on the campaign trail they have been very critical about the situation in indian administered kashmir since the Indian Government<\/a> promised a government of the regions will tone amenable this last year so i think that that is something that the Indian Government<\/a> will be looking to see whether that kind of criticism continues once joe biden and come in to have us in the white house ok thank you so much for that elizabeth from them live for us in new delhi mexican president sell their manual Lopez Obrador<\/a> says he wont congratulate biden until legal challenges of the vote count are over other latin american leaders are sending messages of congratulations to joe biden bo in america editor lucien human reports on watching new administration could mean for the region. While latin american leaders may not have said so publicly most all along had been rooting for joe biden he begins from a concept which is very crucial to latino americans is that instead of putting wards or building walls you have to work for the development. You know numbers of corporation and support. But theres an exception brazils president jabe also noddle who is often described as the troubled from bidens recent comments about deforestation of the amazon rain forest outraged also noddle who said publicly he was cheering for donald trump. Venezuelas embattled president Nicolas Maduro<\/a> on the other hand is hoping biden will consider reversing crippling u. S. Economic sanctions. A new consciousness is rising in the United States<\/a> of america in its youth and its people they no longer want to appear list wars they no longer want threats and alluding to. Sources to aljazeera the bidens regional aids are rethinking continued support for venezuelas Opposition Leader<\/a> why they all as interim president reportedly described by one aide as a quote a lost cause joe biden has visited a latin america 26 times so hes certainly no stranger to this region for starters hes promised 14000000000. 00 to Central American<\/a> countries to reduce poverty and violence as a way of tackling the Immigration Crisis<\/a> a very different approach from Donald Trumps<\/a>. Meanwhile many are commenting just how the latin american President Trump<\/a>s electoral challenges are sounding that then he got has had those sort of strong men who decided that they would vote for or would change the results of elections because they wanted to know that men america is unlikely to become a top priority for the next Us Administration<\/a> with perhaps the exception of the immigration issue but after 4 years of being largely ignored theres the expectation that it will again be on the radar you see a new an al jazeera sent the al. But if he is president elect will be sworn in on sunday the former banker won a landslide election last month but now the focus turns to whether he can jumpstart the struggling economy theories about reports on the golf course and the 3rd and indigenous ritual to nag you wait bolivias new president. This is the historic side of the one ill call not far away from the capitol a pass. Shermans from the a matinee Indigenous Group<\/a> off for the traditional baton as a sign of good will to see and hes Vice President<\/a> that we joke a wanker i dressed in white to request the help from the mama or mother earth. Its all happening in a country that has been filled with political strife in the past year. After accusations of fraud led to the ricin nation of the livias 1st indigenous president abel morales. Outgoing interim president anyone yes who took office after morellas resignation said she was leaving the country in order that the craving evidence shows bolivia has fared better than nations link to the socialist tradition such as present day argentina or venezuela my request to the president elect is that he keep the Living Expenses<\/a> allowance the family allowance and the universal one as well bolivias new president he longs to more or less socialist party and would have to deal with a divided country that is struggling with the impact of covert 19. Was economy minister while more dallas was in office and responsible for the Enormous Growth<\/a> that empowered millions of people in the country now the former banker with a masters degree in economics will have to jumpstart at devastated economy i can support it together with the other night we need to have a stereotype policy there is no other option if there is not enough income generation to cover the current spending and especially Public Investment<\/a> we have to make adjustments in current spending not in Public Investment<\/a> that is where we mark a difference from the manager of ferns were going to boost Public Investment<\/a> and we have to be strict with spending but economy saying it wont be easy. When the mass party was in power in the past there was an economic boom that gave the money to help the population but latin american bolivia are in crisis bolivia has a 13 percent deficit in the past year racist discourse and region i rivalries have remerge in a country torn between i returned and white. And a poor indigenous Highland West<\/a> small protests have been on the rise in recent days.

Academy where gun detainees compiler used to be easy. Obvious like a drum really motivated to come into this environment because its something theyre really interested here on a base to music their literacy and numeracy outcomes ever increasing graphic rate. But critics say its not enough and children identified as misbehaving being isolated in conditions which International Human<\/a> Rights Groups<\/a> call a dangerous form of solitary confinement we dont have what people would think is solitary confinement people locked up for 24 hours a day 7 days a week we dont have that in our system we do have to be for the saif to have individuals on the side of the people type people than what we would call the mainstream even and put them in an area of the prison thats more regulated or more controlled why is jail be our only solution for a child as young as 10 well i think its the last resort people that are here the young people and they are young people but are here primarily for quite dangerous offenses and the government has to protect its citizens no child here is left behind or forgotten we never want anyone off whatever theyve done to get in here however serious their fences no one has written off. But afterthought the rise a while for me indigenous inmates the system the she was 15 when she was 1st locked up in banksy huge Detention Center<\/a> when i was in and out of bank share i did know that i was you know on drugs and alcohol and my child to spend pretty serious but i never really got me that help that i needed when i got placed him back in the community and thats why i didnt end up in. Prison story i did not even day one counseling session in banks i didnt rush out of any persons come out there to say we would be detectives about lock up the charges and that was a. She noir and her 2 younger sisters had a tough upbringing she says they were removed from their mother by Child Protection<\/a> officials when she was just now on a fellow coast be trying to. Buy the body around may it took a big toll on me because i had to look after me to the sisters ought to grow up pretty fast myself never really had a normal childhood when i look out for them all the time and theyve made me. Age and mature were born my years which sometimes i look back at it i just wish id just enjoyed by him die playing as a keen. And her sisters were then split up and put in a series of foster homes across Western Australia<\/a>. It was not nice to baby in and out of 50 different harms evermore. You know just being tossed around you do feel alive you know and i but he loves you nobody cares so we was talking caseworkers we wanted to be a very united again what i organize was a School Holiday<\/a> i was to go to say and sisters. But that wasnt enough because i was still so empty inside burke and you used the word empty just then what we may think. Just the Little Things<\/a>. Or people type for granted. Kids. Just Little Things<\/a> that people take for granted. When she neuer turned 14 she began heavily Drinking Alcohol<\/a> and using methamphetamines. Started using the substances because now i really felt it was healing me but it really wasnt healing that i didnt realize just everything that ive been through i couldnt handle. I exploded and i went blank and i dont want to ever go for that ever again she was repeatedly blocked up in juvenile detention for assaults while high and drunk when i got tired of my about survival might i just thought luck anybody was with her and i just got to a point where. You know a few people end up in hospital because of me because of this ride but i kept them saw it and thats not who i am afraid how much anger had in saddam a lot i didnt know that it could exist in anybody and they took over everything in early adult hood she struggled to shake those daemons at that time i. Just lost my little sister 6. And during the process of me you know going in joe. My daughter was removed from ok. You know. Just look. At that time i dont know. What graving felt like i didnt know everything that i was feeling it was it was normal to feel like that i didnt know it was no. Getting out of jail chinoy has had a 2nd baby girl and dreams of a day when all far shes will be granted custody of her eldest daughter and i want to practice because its horrible that my nan went through it my mom with her went through it and now my daughter is going through. What is your greatest fear right now right now. Is i dont want to go through all of this for nothing but i want to knees all of that sadness and use everything and like that thats my motivation and push me even more because. Ive cried so many not. Back at banks he healed outreach workers megan cracker and jerry jones darkhorse say the prison isnt providing enough support for inmates the reality is at least half of youth detainees reoffend and enter adult prisons. All the programs that are in banks at the moment like any prison. Basically recreation and. Some skill sets but what they have on the outside is hope what i have on the outside is supports all the recreation the balancing of basketballs some minor education and the like. Thats not going to change their lives theyre all coming in and out. Their organization the National Suicide<\/a> prevention interim Recovery Project<\/a> is trying to change that with a new program that provides them with housing jobs or other assistance when they leave prison we get them to believe in themselves if you believe in them for long enough theyll start to believe in themselves it is not Rocket Science<\/a> people need people. Who didnt do anything special but we need the young people in prisons treat them like theyre right and if you can seek the one of mike them better to get the medication if theyre hungry if theyve got a if they need to have a yeah ill talk conversation because theyre not feeling so i well despite all. Thats where that a city outrage comes in apply that 247. With such high incarceration rates in Western Australia<\/a> the demand for their services both inside and outside the prisons doesnt stop i cant hear last night all the way to the family when costs rise and hasnt been put an issue. Theres no hope this night help is nice supports. And this is so problematic because until there is. Psycho social supports more people are going to die. And thats the reality of what happens in Western Australia<\/a>. Where very rich types were very rich type but we need to be rich all. Astrology is federal and state governments im to reduce aboriginal incarceration rates by 15 percent over the next decade. As attorney general and Aboriginal Affairs<\/a> minister declined to be interviewed but said in a statement that improved Prevention Strategies<\/a> would help the state reach the stogie. But those like chinoy whove been through the system believe nothing will really china which im with public pressure on the government dramatically ramps up. I just want other people out there like in Different Countries<\/a> to lock their eyes when they come into our country oh its a beautiful country but theres a lot of damage here. A day have not done as i have my good dives. The damage has been done. Of moved on from a Pioneer Store<\/a> where you store the. Other people out there.
