The us President Donald Trump has fired his defense secretary marc esper via social media esper clashed with trump in june over sending military troops to Disperse Protesters is being replaced by the head of the Counterterrorism CenterChristopher Miller speak to a White House Correspondent can really help it in washington d. C. So what more do we know about this firing. Well it had long been rumored that this could happen in fact so much so that marc esper had a Resignation Letter that was all set to go but then the feeling was that in fact his job was secure in so this was never handed over is what we understand now it was expected that potentially if donald trump won the u. S. Election that he would fire mark asked for but it appears even though donald trump has not been the projected winner that this is happening anyway and. What the concern is and all of this and why this has been talked about for so long as the 2 of publicly really had some distance in terms of their positions for some time as you alluded to back in june it was that incident in Lafayette Square where the president you know use the military to quell the protests that were happening outside the white house at his insistence that he wanted to invoke the insurrection act or have the right to do so this is something that this is was publicly disputed by mark asked for saying now was not the time to do this it was not the time to turn the military on civilians so this was the big point but there were other issues too between these 2 men publicly for instance the banning of the Confederate Flag on military bases and also the pushback that the president received when he said there would be no renaming of bases that were named after confederate general so the 2 had been disagreeing publicly for some time and it appears now the president has taken care of the matter in the way that he sees fit given the fact that every member of his cabinet serves at the pleasure of the president and can really still no concession in the meantime from the president come what does this say about the president s mood right now. Well what it suggests is that the president is not happy that he lost this election is lashing out at those that may be responsible for or at least that he sees as being responsible for that loss for example had mark asper been more helpful to the president he would have been able to project might and law and order which is a big part of his Campaign Platform but there are other people that are in within the administration that names have been circulating as potential firings as well for example the f. B. I. Director Christopher Ray now the president s very unhappy that he did not pursue more heavily joe biden son Hunter Bidens the connections or foreign business entanglements and whether or not he profited from his fathers time as Vice President so that would put him at risk at well for being fired and another woman that is also at risk is Gina Housefull they head of the cia and theres been some frustration by trumps inner circle and also the president that she has been not declassifying documents the president feels would have helped him politically with regard to the Obama Administrations handling of the russia investigation prior to Donald Trumps term so this is all something that the president believes would have helped him politically and given the fact that the election was relatively close less than 4000000. 00 votes between himself and joe biden it appears he is taking this out on the people he believes may have been the reason for him losing the Election Committee how can i thank you very much indeed. Now the American Drug maker pfizer has released interim results which show its vaccine is effective against the corona virus news has been welcomed by scientists and World Leaders and triggered a surge on Global Markets but actually developed by pfizer and german startup biotech was found to be more than 90 percent effective in preventing code 19 among study participants no serious safety concerns were observed among the more than 43000 participants across the globe the study showed just 94 confirmed cases of kevin 19 among the participants the news has been called a great day for science and humanity and while the World Health Organization says the results are very positive its added that there is still a lot of work to be done charlie and general forbes. 1300000000. 00 doses by the end of the year thats the claim from drug makers pfizer and biotech after announcing their vaccine is more than 90 percent effective theirs is the 1st successful data from a large scale Clinical Trial and widespread vaccinations could roll out by the end of december following an application for an emergency use approval from regulators within weeks German Company biotech admit theyre still waiting on more results to further predict safety.

D. C. Earlier this year saying that for the foreseeable future the mosque remains more potent against a virus than any vaccine and mike what are the challenges for the transition given that trump hasnt conceded yet. Well many challenges are not police theres a 3 word challenge which is General Services administration now this is a bureaucratic body state supposedly nonpartisan which actually signals when the transition process begins now there is no law that determines how the decision is made it is made at the whim of the person who controls or for to kill a body and that is emma murphy now she has been a controversial figure in washington shes a political appointee by donald trump shes seen by democrats as having protected him from action against his hotel in d. C. Also his actions to end construction or moving the f. B. I. Headquarters for another hotel because that would compete with his so shes at the center of a massive political turmoil and to date she is refusing to sign off on the strand sishen move it has to come from her it has to come from General Services administration and just to put this into a context when Obama Administration moved in the boat was signed off by General Services administration at 1 am in the morning after the vote had come in so this just shows you that not only is trump stalling not recognizing the results of the vote but also some of his bureaucratic employees who are supposed to be conducting nonpartisan roles are following his lead mike hanna thank you very much with us markets rallied following the announcement of that Major Development in pfizers Coronavirus Vaccine and its Industries Hit hardest by the pandemic that have seen the biggest gains including airlines and hotels cambridge on dismounting Market Reaction in new york for us so talk us through the reaction to this element of hope here.
