Resolution against his decision to recognize jerusalem as israels capital just. Cut them to the will of the sounds as they were live from london also coming up the most American Center and played upon the table yes Congress Passes President Trumps tax bill including big cuts in Corporate Tax rates. Polands president signs in ceylon controversial judicial reforms despite a threat from the to suspend his countrys Voting Rights. Zimbabwes new president makes fixing the economy is number one priority in the state of the nation speech. There warm welcome to the program u. S. President donald trump a stress. And to cut off Financial Aid to countries that vote in favor of a draft United Nations resolution against his decision to recognize terrorists them as israels capital earlier the u. S. Ambassador to the u. N. Nikki haley warned members of the u. N. General assembly that trumpet assets report back on how they voted a warning he told a short time ago i like the message that mickey said yesterday the United Nations for all of these nations that take our money and then they vote against us at the Security Council or they vote against us potentially at the assembly they take hundreds of millions of dollars and even billions of dollars and then they vote against us while were watching those votes let them vote against us will save a lot we dont care. Well the Turkish Foreign minister has accused the u. S. Of intimidation over the jerusalem will never do this in the delegate what are you going to do after taking names will you allow those countries as well to be occupied or are you going to punish them the world has changed the belief that i am strong therefore i am right has changed the world today revolting against injustices from now on and will bow to such pressure all from all in the so in my comments on me live from the United Nations in new york hi there mike so the reaction to nikki haleys comments was pretty negative is it likely to be the same then for mr trumps comments as well. Well very likely but in this world of diplomacy very few willing to publicly comment either on the letter sent by nikki haley or indeed by those recent comments by President Trump privately however some members are expressing deep outrage at what they regard as a hickling and bullying tone that was in that particular letter that one person did speak the swedish ambassador he said just quite simply that sweden voted in the Security Council monday that was the vote that forced fourteen votes against us is so all negative vote and a veto he said that sweden made that vote on principle and thats the way they were going to be voting in thursdays General Assembly resolution thats pretty much the general reaction that one is hearing in the United Nations and like how might this affect send thursdays bill. Well it could affect it in one particular way is that were hearing from some circles that those who may not have spoken during their General Assembly session may now do so there is a degree of push back against both nikki haleys letter and President Trumps tone threatening to cut off Financial Aid one must remember that the most recent General Assembly resolution was back in november with a resolution was passed saying that any legal action by israel in jerusalem was not and void because it was an occupying power now that to vote was passed by more than one hundred fifty votes one hundred fifty one voted in favor there were only six votes against if that kind of catton is repeated in thursdays vote it wouldnt just be a defamation of the u. N. Position on jerusalem and its status its also now become a situation where its like an opinion poll a multinational opinion poll on President Trump and what he calls his America First policies like our there live from the u. N. Mike thanks t. J. Well over in palestine people have been protesting against the u. S. Move by calling for another day of rage in occupied west bank clashes between demonstrators and this really Security Forces in bethlehem protesters marched in defiance of the u. S. Decision before being dispersed. Now the big story the whole of the u. S. Tax system in thirty years is now im set to become law the u. S. House of representatives gave the one point five trillion dollar tax reform bill its final approval was passed the president signed into law its a huge legislative victory for trump and repeals part of the Obamacare Health system one recent poll suggests fifty five percent of americans oppose it democrats say the bill was passed in secret and the new law will benefit the ultra rich at the expense of the middle class well the bill slashes the Corporate Tax rate from thirty five to just twenty one percent as of january the first and ends Tax Advantages for companies that move overseas income tax rates and inheritance tax will be reduced for most people those earning over half a Million Dollars a year will experience higher tax reductions but these provisions are temporary ending in twenty twenty six the bills expected to add one point five trillion dollars to the u. S. National debt over the next decade it current things stands at twenty two million a White House Correspondent can be helped he joins me now from washington d. C. Hi there kimberly how sure are americans right now that this is indeed the Christmas Present that its being presented. I think americans are deeply skeptical in fact two thirds according to most polls are not in favor of the tax reform plan that has now passed in both the house and the senate and the soon to be signed into law by the u. S. President this past largely julie on partisan lines meaning that republicans were for it and democrats for for the most part against it but just wrapping up a background briefing here at the White House White house officials pointing out that it was democrats that were also in favor of this that this is something that has been worked on in the u. S. Congress for roughly seven years and even barack obama had in one of his budget proposals suggested that it was necessary to lower the Corporate Tax rate but in a town all about winning it seems that these lines have been drawn and this is something that the democrats according to the white house Officials Say have chosen to attack President Trump on for Donald Trumps part hes been speaking here at the white house as well earlier in the day in his cabinet room highlighting the fact that this isnt just a Campaign Promise kept with regard to reforming taxes but he also has been irritated that he has not been able to repeal and replace the Affordable Care act or obamacare but he says tucked in this that has just been passed is that requirement under obamacare that all americans must buy Health Insurance or pay a tax fine that is no longer the case so the president hailing this as two legislative victories. We have a century repealed obamacare and well come up with something that will be much better whether its block grants or whether its taking what we have been doing something to restrict but obamacare has been repealed in this bill we did want to bring it up i told people specifically required with the Fake News Media because i dont want them talking too much about it because i dont know how people are different now that its approved i can say the individual mandate on health care when you had to pay not to have insurance or to think of that when you paid not to have insurance the individual mandate has been repealed. So kimberly trump isnt signing this today one offs. You know the president for a long time has been touting this is something that he would have by the end of the year this would be a Christmas Gift for americans even sending out a press release to that effect but the reality is this wont be signed into law it looks like today or even potentially by the end of the year because it needs to be worked out in some sort of arcane rules of bill the legislature and then also reviewed by the legal team here at the white house before the president can sign that could take at least ten days or more so its now being sold to some that weve done in the first year of Donald Trumps term in office and that this will be a great way to start the new year twenty eighteen and in terms of when americans could see this its not going to have the immediate a fact that Many Americans have been told but in fact now the white house saying americans may not see this tax relief thats been promised until february can be how could their life in the White House Committee thank you. Polands president says hes signed into law two new bills increasing the governments powers over the courts in defiance of the European Union and are said to that has pushed ahead with the controversial reforms thats despite the e.

And night team of particular concern a potential changes to medicare a federal program for over sixty fives it could face cuts of up to twenty five billion dollars when medicare and medicaid was set up in the one nine hundred sixty s. It encompassed the idea of a Greater Society one that took care of its poor and elderly experts say any of those programs wont necessarily mean less money for recipients but it will mean less cash for doctors hospitals and nursing facilities and advocates say that could have terrible consequences this was going to be terrible my clinic represents you know newman says without access to Affordable Health care millions could suffer doctors who take care of the elderly patients will find themselves unable to accept patients they will turn people away who need the care most of all and who cant afford to pay high private market rates or premiums more than fifty million americans currently receive medicaid benefits and with a rapidly aging population its seen by many as a vital safety net its a curious thing ten thousand people turn sixty five every day in america and will for the next twenty years so i imagine them a majority of those people vote and i imagine that when the tax cuts actually take place theyll be adversely affected and theyre going to go the polls the contrary parties adopted without objection a motion to the region or face a fine the chamber the republicans tax reform bill is already in popular among many voters its hope with next years midterm elections approaching drastic cuts may be avoided and gallacher aljazeera miami florida.

Communities in the central philippines have begun the cleanup after a Tropical Storm type tack hit last week the same region was ravaged by a powerful typhoon four years ago and locals have barely recovered reports now from palo in central philippines. This is whats happened to the town of the philippines like so many communities here it was long held back by poverty and natural disasters but Tropical Storm has made life even more difficult now at least forty people were killed when it struck eastern philippines last thursday a majority of those who died from here buried alive in their homes after boulders and mud came rushing down from the hills that includes members of the but easter family.
