A request that john war jones words are on parliamentary question to be taken down despite the republican fury a vote was taken and the house ruled the speakers words should be kept on the record then another moment of drama for the 1st time a formal attempt in the house to move articles of impeachment against the president impeaching donald john trudell president of the United States of misdemeanors.

Racist thats how the u. S. House of representatives has described president all trumps comments about for congress one but as he remains defiant what does that mean for race and ethnicity in the u. S. And for next years president ial election this is inside story. Hello and welcome to the program im mr. President Donald Trumps comments about for Congress Women are racist and strongly condemned thats the conclusion of the u. S. House of representatives which pasta resolution to rebuke the president it was backed by 240. 00 votes to 100 87. 00 but with only 4 republicans giving their support trump has launched a series of attacks on the Congress Women of color known as the squad telling them to go back to the crime infested places from which they came the politicians Alexandra Cortez ayana president and. Born in the u. S. And it came as a refugee aged 12 the remarks have been widely denounced mainly by democrats who have renewed calls to norwich and pietschmann the proceedings against trump these comments from the white house are disgraceful and disgusting and the experiments are racist how shameful to hear him continue to defend those offensive words words that we have all heard him repeat not only about our members but about countless others. While the vast majority of republicans have failed to condemn toms comments i wonder if when we are tempted to accuse our sister or brother or fellow american political foe or even this madam speaker of racism by the way i do not believe the president is a racist i do not believe the speaker of the house is a right so i do not believe the majority leader is a racist i do not leave the minority leaders raise we can go down as one i do not believe that and while we insist on using this floor to litigate the propriety of statements made outside these walls we assign a lot of work into it to a lot of tweets and despite the widespread criticism of his comments trump has refused to back down and continues to tell the congress when they can leave america they should love our country they shouldnt hate our veterans you look at what theyve said i i have clips raised here the most vile horrible statements about our country about israel about others. Its up to them to do what they want they can believe they can stay but they should love our country and they should work for the good of our country. Well lets bring in our guests now in washington d. C. We have rina shah she is a republican strategist and consultant in Fort Lauderdale florida we have Christopher Metzler hes a conservative commentator and author of the book divided we stand the search for americas soul and in San Francisco we have Christine Pelosi she is a democratic strategist and the daughter of the House Speaker nancy pelosi welcome to you all right to start with i do want to read you all a subsequent tweet from donald trump after the initial tweets that we had he says those tweets were not racist i dont have a racist bone in my body christopher youre a staunch supporter of the president where the president s initial comments racist. There in my view the president s comments were not roses at all here and fox was expressing an opinion that is held by many people the difference is he says what he has to say it is not politically incorrect about it i dont see the racial angle here on this tweet im christopher i do want to ask you about that because youre saying that hes saying that other people and said same the similar views and therefore its not racist but surely other people could also have racist views or just saying that hes speaking on behalf of lots of people doesnt make his tweets not racist. Well in fact the president look in my experience i have no reason to believe that the president of the United States is a racist in fact even as soon as he came down the escalator and before people of all ways hammered this notion that oh hes a racist hes a racist ok so if america were to label him a racist clearly as the house just did in its resolution then one you know what we should be talking about is we should be talking about the lives of all americans the president is a patriot he continues to be a patriot and this notion that his tweets were racist just simply dont make any sense and the notion of you know people saying well go back he said go back or you came from i dont believe he said that at all and in fact i am an immigrant to limber legal immigrant to this country and this notion of go back to where you came from didnt come across to me at all in this message ok as i want to that tweet verbatim christopher he said its so interesting to see a progressive democrat congresswoman who originally came from countries shes governments are a complete and total catastrophe of the west my scripts and ill stop there but he did say that they originally came from other countries but 3 of them were born in the United States and at this point i want to read and so rana shah because i believe raina youre no stranger to these sentiments yourself not at all and ive been a lifelong republican long before this president was and ill tell you in 26 when i was one of the 1st public republicans to speak out against him i was an elected delegate to the Republican National convention and i was on fox news and i said that i had trouble supporting this candidate and was not sure if i would vote for him in the general election afterwards i received all kinds of vitriol from a seemingly across the country. In the form of voice mails Text Messages emails telling me to go back to my country verbatim mistakenly calling me a muslim going for me and saying that i was not a real republican a lot of these people identified themselves as some Trump Supporters and its been documented this wasnt black and white given to me i was basically attacked for just speaking my mind exercising my 1st amendment right and i understand the president of the United States has that right as well but what he said in those tweets on sunday and subsequently has proven exactly who he is hes told us who he is now weve already know that he peddles in hate and rhetoric that is divisive however after this if you flip the script its very easy to see this was textbook racism his supporters say that this was not his intense intent sorry to be racist however its hard to see anything different because when you question how american someone is to tell them to go back to their place of origin simply based on the color of their skin that is the definition the appear to me of racism and of this one i want to bring in christine because we had your mother denounced those tweets as racist on on the house floor im guessing you agree with her. Absolutely and lets be clear about 2 things 1st of all when donald trump 1st appeared on the scene he and his father were being sued by the government for refusing to rent to black people when he came down into the Public Domain he was he was making a judgment about the central fark 5 the exonerated 55 black teenagers who is it turns out did not rape and beat a jogger in new york city calling for the Death Penalty he never apologized to that when he ran for president coming down that escalator he talked about. All sorts of ethnic groups and attacked them one by one so the tweet was donnelly textbook racism but literally textbook if you look at the e. E. O. C. Definition the equal Employment Opportunity Commission Definition of what is Workplace Racism one of the lines and examples they use is when people say go back to your own country so as rena points out people have been bullied by that not just people speaking out on television not just these 4 Congress Women but every day people my stepsons latino in in our world are trying to raise an equality generation with my stepson and my daughter you know their friends their communities their Public School classmates see this happen to them and see these conversations happen so when youre the president of the United States your words carry the most weight of anyone on the entire planet that is why yesterday when the house of representatives voted to condemn the racist comments they were invoking the words of republican icon Ronald Reagan who in his Farewell Speech to the nation talked about the fact that we have to continue to keep america open to immigrants and also that anyone from all over the world when they come to america can become. As american as people who were born here and just on a final note we have to really move past the racist comments and. And into the racist policies the house tomorrow is going to vote to raise the minimum wage a federal minimum wage for the 1st time in over 10 years closing the racial wealth gap by doing that and pushing that example out to Big Companies like mcdonalds to say give your workers a wage so its not just about the comments and the hate crimes that they inspire its also about the racist policies that we need to dismantle and on that i would hope we could have some Common Ground christopher i say vigorously shaking your head that so let me ask you about one of the things that christine just said which was that it wasnt about necessarily what was said not just about what was said but who was saying it and that it was coming from the highest office in the land and what would you say to that ok. You know again were going in circles here in my for my standpoint from my experience i dont see the race issue number one number 2 if were going to talk about whats going on and who said what it was a couple of days ago that a oversees said that in fact Speaker Pelosi is racists. So weve got that going on and let me go to the minimum wage question raising the minimum wage yes she did she said they were targeting and to go back to your textbook definition. She said that in fact the speaker was targeting women of color if that is not racist then i dont know what is. And as it relates to the minimum wage issue or youre going to raise the federal minimum wage ok if thats what you want to do look at the amount of people thats going to put out of jobs and so if democrats are happy with doing audio enters out how a phony a girly study said absolutely none. And i want to thank you im sorry i would also i think. That youll let me get emotional then i want to get out of guys im going to come in hand sorry im watching you get quite emotional rain and im going to ask you what the source of that yes im really sorry you know i just didnt think i would get this passionate about it ive been talking about this for 3 days and im a young woman of color somebody who was born in southern West Virginia i was born to immigrants from uganda and india and my parents were incredibly successful productive members of Society American society they gave job theyve created hundreds of jobs they have never taught me to look at the color of someones skin and judge their american is based off of that the fact that mr metzler does not see the president s words to be a problem since when did we start to disagree about a president United States using proper words i have a child in preschool i do teach my child to not name call to not judge people based on the color of their skin i am thankful i am not a white house adviser i would not want to work in this white house i was never offered a job there nor would i ever seek one out but let me tell you this if i was advising this president i would have said stay out of this spat between d. N. C. Pelosi and these 4 2 young black and brown women what was between them is between them he does need to speak up but why he spoke up is because its in his heart of hearts that he doesnt like these little brown and black girls who are dead democratically elected Congress Women who have the ability given to them by the constitution and check his power he has such a problem with women ok but let me tell you this it took this weekend to really tell me to show me that he has a problem with black and brown women he cant stand that we are powerful and that we are equal to him in this just society so you know what i dont like when new immigrants like mr meltzer come here and say that this is all ok its not ok this presence on a republican because he has no respect or love for liberty or the constitution or freedom ok right at this point im going to i want to play some of what we heard from the congresswoman in question here and their reaction to what donald trump said in his initial tweets as have a listen. He does not know how to defend his policies so what he does is attack us personally and that is what this is all about i encourage the American People and all of us in this room and beyond to not take the bait this is a disruptive distraction from the issues ok here concern and consequence to the American People right so christopher im going to ask you that is this a strategy then on the part of President Trump weve been hearing broad condemnation of people being held in these awful conditions and border Detention Centers and now we see him potentially change the subject and make it about the race of members of congress i mean its a pretty effective strategy if thats what it is. Well is there strategy behind that i dont know i havent spoken to the president so i dont know that and let me say its not the president that changes the message it is the media who simply follows each and every tweets that tweet now those are his words out so i circulate words to. Ok well i understand that they were his words but question was is that a change of strategy and so the media simply is changing the subject over and over again look if you dont like the president s tweets if you dont like any of that dont report on him dont look at them go about the business of running the country if that is what Congress Wants to do then that is in fact what congress should be doing rather than obsessing over the president s tweets christopher the media. Is the president of United States and im not im going to be interesting. Because i want to ask you about the votes that we saw in congress when this was undoubtedly news so lets talk about the voters we in that vote we saw only 4 republicans vote. In favor of that resolution and since since the initial tweets out of 251. 00 republicans in congress very few i believe less than 20 have even criticized his words so going back to the voters it did force the each member to have to choose to go on record one way or the other so this was smart politics on the part of the democrats christine was that the path. The plan is to protect people from what donald trump is doing with his words with his twitter feed and with the power of the executive branch there are inhumane conditions at the border thats what was being discussed last week and that was the context in which people were having a fight over the best way to get the kids out of those camps and to have humane immigration policy last week his labor secretary in charge of fighting Human Trafficking mr costin had to step down because of a sweetheart deal that he gave to pedophile Jeffrey Steen and that case is still reverberating as brave women are coming forward and talking about how they were raped as girls by this terrible person including some of them allegedly after this deal was cut so lets be clear it is much easier. To for the media and here i would agree with christopher the media on the one hand can can choose to multitask and should in fact multitask members of Congress Absolutely had to condemn those tweets because 1st of all there were attack on 4 members of congress which led to increased Death Threats against them put their safety in jeopardy and and 2nd as i mentioned and as reno mentioned with with her child youre talking about children who are listening and once the president says it. If the president can say it then anyone can say it you know in a schoolyard in a store on an airplane you know everywhere anywhere and thats the danger is that our society. Should be one in which we respect each other and were trying to work through our differences not one in which we insult and harm each other you know the rate of of hate crimes is going up and unfortunately for the most marginalized people in america the trauma of this president is going to cost us for years to come and thats why we have to fix it and thats why as congresswoman presley said we cant take the bait we have to keep talking about about health care about wages about respect about dignity because thats the work of the congress thats being done and and those are bills frankly the president should support and sign really your republican strategist and i want to get your take on the news and reaction weve been hearing from republicans on this is this about trying to walk that tightrope between especially for those in divest states between their constituents and not raising the Republican Base and supporting President Trump. Look there are marette of issues here layered one on top of the other and i tell you as somebody whos kind of grown up in the party and has seen some really great republicans across the country always give me opportunities and allow me to share my origin story one in which i talk about my fathers side being from uganda being thrown out by a dictator being told we had to go back to india when 3 generations of my family was currently living in uganda so i love the fact that every american ive met through my 30 some years i has always embraced me as a fully american but somebody is having a rich ancestry and heritage that im proud of and speak to but but understand that im committed to the ideas of creating a freer and more just society and creating opportunity for people despite whatever zip code they were born in we can all agree on some basic principles and the republicans i continue to speechwriter for and advice today i still believe that they are good people and that just because the occupant of the oval office acts the way in which he does this party is not yet dead yes there are so many people that lack the moral courage to speak out against trumps abysmal actions and words however we have a greater task on our hands and thats to keep our republic to fix it to continually fix it our founders said they gave us a republic if we can keep it right so for my my duty for my daughters my my duty is to really talk about the american way and how we create opportunity for everyone but when were stuck in the muck when we see situations like this where look i have never been a fan of Speaker Pelosi until more recently i remember being a young hill staffer and remembering the day she got this speakers gavel smiling and feeling happy i was working in a republican member of Congress Office at that time i was happy that a woman had the gavel however i have serious differences with her policy wise but in this moment i think what we can acknowledge is that she has been a leader and there there is something thats very true here that we must acknowledge to the despite being. Leader had she been a blocks beaker and these 4 women were white skinned trump would not have tweeted this stuff he could because he cant tell white skinned women to go back to where they came from and on that note im going to bring in christopher hes shaking his head again christopher i do also want to throw this forward looking at the election next year im going to ask you to react to that but i also want your take on whether this is going to change the Playing Field going into the 2020 president selection. Well i you know at this point and i fully believe that in fact the president is going to be easily reelected heres why the president has made some significant strides relative to the economy as a relates to block unemployment the president has done a phenomenal phenomenal job relative to that as it relates to businesses as a relates to opportunity zones are all of these things it is the actions that have been taken by the president that is going to make a difference as he returns to the white house in 2020 and let me just say part of the far story and here is that if we look at and theres all this conversation about what the president tweeted and what the president said heres the thing there is a significant concern about how left the Democratic Party is going and in fact if you look out some of the members of the squad did not one of them say say that she is there to impeach that m. F. Really referring to the president of the United States do we not have antisemitic comments coming from some members of the squad so lets be clear if youre going to criticize the president on what he does what he says the language he uses as it relates to impeach that m. F. So thats ok because it was it then line of print going to ask it is it was said by amber of the squad i do want to bring in kristan on that exact issue the issue of impeachment because democrats have been. Very split over this issue here and now articles of impeachment have been filed in congress and that could potentially help unite the right and christine we dont have much time left im going to ask you to respond very quickly how split on the democrats on this idea than teaching the president. Democrats 1st thank you for your comments earlier i do i do think it is true that while donald trump insults everybody he takes particular glee and malice in attacking women of color powerful women of color its something that he whether its you know Maxine Waters or the squad more recently a Federico Wilson who still owed an apology because she was right about what had happened in their to her constituent and so who is who is killed in the military serving over there so the fact of the matter is the economy the obama economy is cooking along its not doing enough we need to do more the president cant count on racial animus and Voter Suppression the way he could and russian assistance the way he could in 2016 on the issue of investigating the president we are pursuing rick vigorous investigation we will see what happens as we follow the facts and Robert Mueller comes in as one who is a hamilton elector a member of the Electoral College who pushed for a briefing to the electors before we voted on the trump russia connection we didnt get that but we got an independent investigation. Conducted by mr moller so i think all eyes and all ears are going to be on mr moller on july 24th so ask me again after that testimony where democrats are where americans are but i think were getting closer to moments of accountability while i think were 70 getting closer to my moments of of people trying to come together and im glad to put that we all could come together for this discussion as as difficult as it has been so thanks very much to what our guests rina shah Christopher Metzler and christine put icy and thank you too for watching you can see the program again any time by visiting our website aljazeera dot com and for a further discussion do go to our Facebook Page thats facebook dot com forward slash a.

Seems to be the 1st suspect for the turkish officials c. N. N. Thank you for that a sin and cos you are with the latest live in istanbul thank you were going to go back to our top story now the World Health Organization classify a bowler as an International Health emergency our correspondent catherine soy is following developments from nairobi so what does this declaration mean catherine. So basically this declaration means that what the w. H. O. Emergency committee has done is to declare this an extraordinary event which requires vigorous. International response said but this declaration really also came with the Committee Chairperson saying that the reason risks are very high risk of this disease spreading in d r c and the region but the risk of spreading to other countries outside of the region is no he also said that this is very much still our regional and margins but its not a global threat he raised concern about recurrence of the disease in areas in the d. R. See where it had been contained he raised concerns about the security situations many Health Workers really saying theyre working in a war zone weve seen. Treatments and to the Health Workers being attacked mainly by militia groups just last weekend to community Health Workers were assassinated but then also the Committee Also recommended and say that there shouldnt be any punitive measures against the r. C. Which has been doing according to them a good job in containing this crisis so they say that there shouldnt be any border closures there shouldnt be any trade restrictions which could cause more harm and this is news that will come as a very good information to a lot of help local people involved in the fight against the bowler was saying that this International Attention really is needed if this fight against is going to be one right so theyre raising concern but not alarm and perhaps thats why theyre warning against closing borders catherine. Yes thats absolutely correct thats why theyre warning against this was a concern because some of the issues i think the committee was duking into is those repercussions when an emergency is declared like this we see sometimes borders being closed and we see some airlines perhaps a refusing to fly to countries that have been affected so the. Committee really saying that this should not happen that the trade should go on borders should remain open saying that none of the put those involved in the fight against. In those countries the government of garcia as well has been doing a great job in trying to contain this disease with in the region and also calling for this resources from the city saying that they need this International Resources just short of funds they need this money to expand really the response not just of the r. C. But regionally as well catherine thank you for that is Catherine Sawyer with the latest live in nairobi thank you. Now irans foreign minister says he believes that european palace want to preserve the 25th day nuclear deal but the reef accuses the United States of having too much influence he spoke to aljazeera at the United Nations what do you think of europes response to this crisis in the way they pursue. Europes response i think europeans want to preserve the j. C. Pure. But unfortunately theyre not prepared to pay anything theyre not prepared to invest for their security and at the end of the day theyre allowing the United States you said the edge and i dont know whether thats in the interest of europeans are thinking well lets go now to our diplomatic editor james bays hes joining us live from the United Nations in new york and one of the the main complaints of the iranian delegation has james is that theyre being put on the increasing pressure by the u. S. Not just with sanctions but with other restrictions to what more did foreign minister zarif have to say on this. Yeah and those restrictions apply to the foreign minister he is someone who knows the u. N. Very well he used to live here he was irans ambassador to the United Nations he comes here very frequently because the u. N. Is a place that he can address irans case irans position on a world stage and of course because u. N. Headquarters happens to be in new york it means he can have access to u. S. Think tanks to u. S. Media not on this trip in quite the same way though because the u. S. Of put restrictions on his movements in a most unprecedented manner that means hes allowed to go to here u. N. Headquarters to the Iranian Mission to the United Nations and to the ambassadors residence where hes staying and hes not allowed to go anywhere else in this city not only that this now applies to all the iranian diplomats who are permanently based here in new york they are restricted to the same places and a part of new york 6 blocks in Long Island City district of new york where the iranians have accommodation for some of their stuff now i can tell you they have never been Movement Restrictions on diplomats like this at any time in the history of the United Nations there are some countries that the u. S. Doesnt like for example syria north korea theyre not allowed to go 25 miles more than 25 miles outside new york city but these new restrictions are the toughest yet and even the United Nations itself says its concerned about the situation and other diplomats believe the u. S
