Through the greatest steps in the history of our world a truck that ministry will stop the jobs from leaving them and trouble leaving North Carolina. Trump received 67 percent of the brutality and 73 percent Caldwell County record levels of support for republican president ial candidates trump was saying stuff like bring manufacturing back they care about the Little People support for trump and the stars are for americas past where evan invalides at near is classic car crews and on friday night i think trotsky were great people or whatever the his policies are working for your average american i think a lot of people were looking for a big change and trump is not a politician he doesnt look at things the way he typically hold politicians look at the things you think people in this area support President Trump in terms of his policy on immigration in america i think so id say 80 percent most of the people here or what you call locals they grew up and everything was lily white and thats where they want to be a country without borders is not a country. I mean if you look at it heaven has a wall and strict immigration policy held is not if you want to be here then you need to come in the correct white why do you think President Trump did so well in this area in the 2016 election truck comments that lets make America Great again of all this get our industry going lets get our main break we need to be making billions. When donald trump talks about american carnage as he did in his inaugural speech he is talking about places like Caldwell County and lenore that resonates with those people because theres been an ending out of that as a faction tops that youre seeing a whole decline in the whole civic culture thats going on there thats why you have these these really get seated problems like increases in suicide and opioid and out of wedlock births and its not just those areas but all roared North Carolina and a lot of all america. The appeal of right wing populism in small town rural areas left behind by economic change plays a major role in the hyper partisanship in America Today but there is also a critical cultural dimension that became clear an elk in a town just an hour up the road we like small town values and we certainly appreciate enough coal with the bible these things are still very important and we dont want. That to change Stephen Harris was born and raised in el can and is now a columnist at the town newspaper so this is an area where evangelical christianity is very strong and he said President Trump supports or appears to support the traditional American Values or so important here you know were seeing things that our parents would never dream of would happen in america such as abortion and same sex marriage. Why do you think jellicoe christians represent 26 percent of the american electorate their trumps most loyal block of support he has advanced their agenda on relations with israel judges abortion. Rights folks on the other side think that not taking action on Climate Change is immoral that not allowing people to choose who they want to marry you know is immoral do you respect that they feel that theyre standing on moral ground to do but if we do fall of the bible and its teachings that would be the best path to go and i would disagree that Climate Change is a moral issue its an economic issue its a battle over government control and taxes but its a moral issue if it affects our children if the planet becomes uninhabitable i dont believe that will happen its a big bet though its a big bet if we dont do anything and its a problem it is but you know we know that god is in control and we will trust him for our future. The divide between white democrats and republicans is is really now between christians and people who are not religious at all in her book on civil agreement Liliana Mason argues that the sorting of the parties along religious lines also from his extreme partisanship in the us and the eightys and ninetys we saw the religious right become involved in politics and they chose to unite with the Republican Party which means that now we wraps religion into partisanship as well and evangelical christians havent really been involved in politics before that many in a group of people from heresies Community Felt religion was at the root of the visions in america theres a huge divide in urban areas and rule and a lot of it is based on religion you have great prayer in your schools its like when i went to school you did the pledge of allegiance 1st line you cant do that anymore nobody respects the flag you know theyve taken god out of their time trumps economic message also resonated in elkan which was the textile mill that was the lynchpin of the local economy you know he made promises of bringing jobs back everybody sorta equated him with me you heard Different Things coming in. Monitoring this and being worse things come around my own lets bring some tourists to help but i dont think its going to completely. One Rural America struggles the president stokes partisan tensions with misleading claims about democratic support for Illegal Immigrants the democrat side. Free world Free Education but the right to vote there you know not time like what is ours what we have arent and i think there should be very strange and somehow sense to you. Keep the young from taking i am great sources are you concerned about the divisions in the country today. Its probably good workshop. But the day wires that people just keep digging in deeper into their professions its just youre a democrat or youre republican and theyre going to vote for that no matter what is or who are running there is a division one year to have think you will continue to escalate you have your economic classes you have your races its the different religions and everybody believe in is them our way down and. I dont believe any president in history of this nation has been attacked more than donald trump. An evangelical leader who has been a vocal critic of democrats is the reverend Franklin Graham son of the avengers billy graham who participated in President Trumps inauguration we met with him at the North Carolina headquarters of the Christian Relief organization he heads how concerned are you about the social and political divisions in America Today oh im very concerned it is ripping some sections of our country almost apart and it shouldnt be i dont think where it was divided as we were in the civil war when the nation was ripped apart. And i hope that never happens again but it could who knows and you suggested that President Trump one because of divine intervention in unison that it was part of gods plan i believe that how its going to explain that he won the election everybody was against him dont you think mixing religion and politics like that kenya fuel polarization in the country to suggest that a president was chosen by god well i dont think its divisive i think its just a fact and if you think this is the vice of take it up with god why do you feel you can give President Trump a pass when he committed adultery when it was like i didnt i didnt give the President Trump a pass on that 1st thats not something that is current in his life thats not since hes been president like bill clinton but you criticized president clinton for the lying at the time and now President Trump of course seems to lie regularly i dont i dont agree with you im not sure what youre talking about to be honest with you well i mean there have been Fact Checking about a lot of the president s comments who for a website who fact checks the media and the media gives far more lives than what youre accusing the president of the line which when youre talking about fox or others im talking about all have a problem in this country are you concerned that Many Americans see President Trump as a divider rather than a night or i dont think is a divider i think he has a you and i in or he has certainly youre not. Out of millions of people by name i mean people on both sides feel strongly that their moral positions are valid and that the other side is imposing on them how do you bridge that divide only god can do this i think of with all of us democrats and republicans what would turn our faces back to god and ask for his help i think we can we can we can come through these problems very easily we have a constitution too in the constitution talks about freedom sure and has a moral foundation are you saying that the only morality that matters is the more audi of the bible yes. But not everyone interprets the bible the same way that a false mom narrative of religious nationalism and white evangelical is the seeks to make things ok as long as you against gay people get pretty for praying to school against womens right to choose for god what tax cut they say to you all right molly reverend barber who launched the moral monday movement in North Carolina is now spearheading the Poor Peoples CampaignNational Call for a moral revival you got 62000000. 00 people working for less than 15. 00 an hour some have to get food stamps a living color because they work every day they dont make a living wage Something Like their meat people out of health care a country cannot achieve to stand with that kind of gross and equality so were saying at this time for us to come together to fight for the heart and soul of this democracy. The extreme partisan environment in the u. S. As people in charlotte are in that hosting the Republican Convention next year will be much different than when democrats gathered here in 2012 are you concerned that the political divisions today could lead to violence or it will. Know that it will we are concerned its going to bring something totally different totally different temperatures of america from 2012 to 202020 different temperatures of america. Theres even worry that President Trump will contest the election if he loses in 2020 i think its a serious concern because he will think that he him to intimidate his way and to stay in the white house and he will say this and he will be surrounded by conspiracy view that democrats stole the election from him do you think america may be so divided today that its no longer capable of safeguard in democracy by impeaching a corrupt president as envisioned by the founders i dont think Richard Nixon would be impeached and todays environment i think people would say especially rally around nixon you know along partisan lines im optimistic that these times are straightened out and and america will be only on an upward course in the future Stephen Harriss grandfather 5 generations back was gravesite was recently discovered was in the personal guard of the American Revolutionary war hero George Washington the 1st u. S. President do you think your President Trump loses the election that hell leave the white house. Sure yes of course they will everyone has before including George Washington and here he will what should the politicians be doing to try to overcome this vicious partisanship. Start talking about whats good for the country and not talk about winning. At every hearing that weve seen so far the Republican House members defend tromp the mechanism of impeachment only works if people on the president s party are willing to condemn him. And to vote to remove him which is what happened with nixon i havent seen any evidence that republicans are willing to do that today. To help protect trump as long as his voters are still supporting him this is something that actually George Washington warned about and. Farewell address he actually said if we become too partisan we divide ourselves against our own nation and it will harm us if we put too much power into the party truly sacrificing the national greater good for the partisan victory.

Justice department has confirmed that billionaire and convicted sex offender jeffrey abstain has been found dead in his jail cell in new york it describes the death as an apparent suicide the f. B. I. Is investigating epstein was awaiting trial on charges of trafficking underage girls Shihab Rattansi joins us live from washington d. C. So can we clarify the situation was it wasnt he on suicide watch what exactly happened. That is the key question and clearly that was the key question when these news reports 1st came out as alone when reported that epstein had been under suicide watch since one of the parity been a Suicide Attempt a few weeks back and now all of that is being called into question initially we had reports that at the time when you when he was found in his cell this Morning Saturday morning local time he was no longer he had no longer been on suicide watch now the New York Times is suggesting perhaps he was never on suicide watch even at all to what is apparently being that Suicide Attempt he was simply transfer to a facility with extra security but had never been on suicide watch or a lot of questions there are conflicting reports and in fact so many questions that the attorney general of the u. S. And so has now made a statement just in the last few minutes i was appalled to the Geoffrey Epstein was found dead early this morning from an apparent suicide while in federal custody mr ive seen death raises serious questions that must be also in addition to the f. B. I. s investigation which you mentioned so i mean i have consulted with the Inspector General whos opening an investigation into the circumstances of mr epsteins death or to investigations down the way into how epstein died what happens next for the Legal Process you. Its all over the criminal process is over and clearly i think a lot of people are anticipating i think a lot of epsteins alleged victims run to sue pacing a court case epstein standing trial. The alleged other abuses around epstein who abused minors young women young girls would would do would have to take the stand and explain themselves to this is all perhaps something that you have a lot of people what were looking forward to some sort of justice being done and we should remember that i mean this is why there is so much International Interest in to abstain he wasnt just being accused of trafficking sex with underage girls for himself but also for other people v. I. P. s celebrities politicians activists and so on but thats only about criminal prosecution will not be with a civil suit against his estate is expected to continue and we understand prosecutors have a great deal of evidence of a seized from his site from his huge mansion in new york we also understand federal prosecutors will continue to be going off to those who are alleged to be his accomplices he was he had a network of people who recruited young girls that said so little bit and see what they have to say if they are indeed prosecuted and diet and prosecuted as well so its not over yet but i think clearly were already hearing from some of his alleged victims who are saying that they are sad that hes alive to see justice be done. She have a tendency that russian activists say police have arrested around 200 people at protests in moscow theyve rallied for the 4th consecutive weekend and are calling for free and fair local elections next month vasant brings us the latest from moscow. An endless stream of people coming to the protest here in the center of moscow its the 4th we cant in the road. See in these kinds of protests and its turned out that the government was definitely not expecting despite the weather conditions a lot of people are going to be here to show theyre angry its not about the election here in moscow and you longer because thats how it started opposition candidates are banned from running this is about the crackdown the repression that the authorities basically committed. The protests have started thousands have been detained and some people are facing very serious criminal charges and years in prison for what human rights organizations call just peaceful protest so people are really fired up and thats why theyre here to show to the government that they are have a right to protest and. Vote the political regressions. People the young people who are in prison now for nothing. Government against its own people so what the government tried to achieve was to silence the protests but what happened is exactly the opposite more people have come to the streets and the government gave permission for this particular protest but didnt allow musicians for example to play made it difficult for people to come inside to protest many many are still waiting outside to be able to and also have been training leaders even during these protests one of the opposition candidate has been detained and all of us are very worried that they will be taking any time soon so people here are very brave because they know the consequences for painting an approach can be very serious. Protesters in hong kong of now taken their route into the popular shopping district of. Crowds of barricaded. Streets in the busy area as riot police move in to gas has already been fired at the protesters there rally in defiance of the police bad rides out amongst the protesters following must happen from day. So the day began with a demonstration in a town called typo thats in the New Territories up near the border with Mainland China it was very good natured families were involved walking through the streets even though the police said so that the demonstration wasnt allowed there was no way they were going to stop the thousands of people who turned out at the end of that demonstration most people then drifted away but several 1000 people stayed they occupied the streets they set up barricades there was a standoff where i lined up with riot police and then soon as they heard arrive then the word went out it spread very quickly amongst the group which we know this is a group that says it doesnt have any leaders. From one thing to another they decided to leave which they did and come to a number of other locations around New Territories and cow loot and this is one of the this is shot is this is where there have been confrontations before they have quickly moved into this intersection in this junction have set up makeshift barricades as quickly as they can trying to block traffic they have partially managed that they brought traffic to a standstill but then very quickly word went out again that the police were on their way they moved very quickly to set up these barricades but now we see that there are police that have come from a nearby Police Station very close to here it remains to be see now what these police will do and the police have just charged across that intersection clearing the protesters away and reopening the road again as the protesters we think have melted away again into the. Shopping center here possibly then to get on to the subway system the m. T. R. One maybe to go to another location but the police were leaving the city they detected some protesters using laser pens against them and they responded with guns which used the socalled nonlethal ammunition but the protesters
