Representatives moving forward with an official impeachment inquiry and directing our 6 committees to proceed with their investigations under that umbrella of impeachment inquiry the president must be held accountable no one is above the law police he says 2 reasons convincer to launch the inquiry that President Trump was allegedly asking the ukrainian president to investigate democratic rival joe biden and his some at the white house then prevented a whistle blowers complaint about the president s request to reach congress as required by law but putting aside her fear that an impeachment investigation would allow President Trump to move his base with claims of another witch hunt he maintains hes done nothing wrong and authorized the release of a transcript of his phone call with the ukrainian president selenski shortly after police he spoke to trump tweeted this fund raising video ready to go containing carefully curated soundbites from democratic politicians suggesting they were attempt. To subvert the will of the people if we dont impeach this president he will get reelected its time to stop this. Message by the republican leader of the house i realize 2016 did not turn out the way Speaker Pelosi wanted it to happen but she cannot change the laws of this congress the exact details of the way forward for an impeachment inquiry remain murky the police he said it would involve the findings of the 6 inquiries already underway into the president s alleged wrongdoing may take the pressure off the democrats from their electoral base increasingly angry about a lack of action against the president now i think what youll see from democrats is the question is this going to be a short process or a longer process so a short process means we look we we know we need to know were not going to do a lot of investigating not were not going to wait and turn over a lot of other stones before we have this vote in the house to impeach this guy and then the senate will either do or will do whatever it does or doesnt do thats fine but then by putting it behind nancy pelosi all of those house candidates have said their piece and now they can go on and talk about other issues and not be hounded about this inquiry may also speed up some of the judicial attempts on the way to get Key Information from donald trump on his ministration that so far remain secret report has determined he will not be the 3rd president in u. S. History to be impeached and whatever the short term political consequences the opening of the inquiry doesnt mean trump will eventually be convicted of high crimes and misdemeanors. Washington lets bring in our White House Correspondent john king really how could his on capitol hill the president then says that this is all a garbage witch hunt but the transcript. The president did ask you cranes leader to investigate joe biden not once at least once. Right but what it doesnt confirm is the 2nd part of the allegations against the president which is that he was looking for a quid pro quo in essence that he was looking for in exchange for an investigation he was holding back the promise of military aid so on the one hand what i think were going to see here is the white house saying look this transcript shows its not as incriminating as you suggest and trying to play up that but as you point out it does show that the u. S. President was urging the president of ukraine to employ an investigation against one of his political rivals and that is what the democrats here in the house of representatives on capitol hill are going to be focusing on this is what nancy pelosi the speaker of the house said was the sort of turning point for those moderate democrats who were on the fence about watching some sort of impeachment proceeding against the president so what happens now will the the question becomes where this investigation will lead we have 6 committees that are all now under one umbrella investigating the possibility of impeachment but it comes down to a vote in the house of representatives and that has not yet been called we also have to remember for those who think that this is going to lead to President Trump immediately being removed from office thats not a certainty either because well the house of representatives which is controlled by democrats may favor impeaching the president is the senate that has to vote to remove the president battles controlled by republicans so this is where things get a little bit unclear about not only the speed of how this is going to move but whether ultimately it could lead to President Trump no longer being the president of the United States all right kimberly many thanks indeed to White House Correspondent kelly how could the lives. Come on capitol hill. Rons leader Hassan Rouhani is expected to address the United NationsGeneral Assembly within the next town frances president of money and mccrone is pushing for a meeting between rouhani and President Donald Trump on the sidelines of the summit of 0 senior political analyst Mullen Bashara joins us now from london it looks the moment as though that that meeting. Just isnt going to happen not if. The comments by jevons zarif irans foreign minister speech believed well actually weve heard that earlier from the iran from the spiritual leader of here where from Ayatollah Khamenei the Supreme Leader that there will not be talks with the United States unless it lifts the sanctions 1st and goes back to this that this quantity so we already have a certain principled rejection on the part of the power base if you will into hiran about iran going back on its word that there will be no negotiation with the United States on the pressure under the pressure of sanctions. And thats why if you remember a few weeks ago the macro was trying to find a middle way through this where the europeans could start trading with iran and so that iran could open up a dialogue with the United States of course that has not gone and where thats far but i think the i thocht on the so did he find that hes and this collation of tensions in the gulf has really pushed the situation forward in the absence of war i think a meeting is going to have to take place to another later or a dialogue and negotiations over the deal the nuclear deal is going to have to come forward otherwise its going to be worse and what a break of federico very nice comments and what she said the signatories the european signature is still committed to the 2015 nuclear deal but. That commitment is becoming increasingly difficult to maintain absolutely with the United States underlining and pressuring its allies to go along with its sanctions i certainly would think pressures and punishing those who would deal with iran on the secondary sanctions. Is the whole point why europe is moving away 1st the macro is moving to mediate between the United States and iran because it really is why now is lost in the midst of all of this it believes that the nuclear is a good deal of the United States should abide by it even if it was discussed other issues like by this the gulf security and Regional Security so were stuck here in this position where by the present trump is really insisting on sanctions until the earliest come to the table and the rain is are escalating the wretched thing up the pressure because iran would not accept to be under a basically demeaning and hurtful sanctions and hence theyre going to continue to nudge and continued to stabilize the situation in the region until they utopian and other. Other global powers intervene so here we are today and everyone hopes that the United States and iran would move forward sort towards the bush issuance and continue to avoid the other option which is war you were saying earlier on about the when we talked about an hour or so ago about the need for the paps a 3rd party to be involved in talks about what happens in the region and with iran. Absolutely and i think its not enough although the european road here is very important than it has been quite moderating. But in the gulf region and the gulf region being so important then for some of us with a bit of memory. You know this been going on for 40 years imagine since 197940 years of this tension between the United States and iran and it just getting worse now because of iranians kept by city to respond because of the fiasco called the American Invasion and occupation of iraq and so on and so forth so there are many many stakeholders in this issue is the chinese who want to import oil from the gulf there are the russians who are not involved in the middle east and theyre sort of the United States and the europeans who have lots of stakes and above all there is the arab world they are partners in the gulf but also the out of whats in general that has a lot of stake in gulf and Regional Security weve just heard by the way from them but im sorry that they are if the iraqi president who really basically crying out we dont want to be involved in another war weve already been involved in 2 or 3 wars in the eightys and the ninetys and 2000 to 2003 a we did it iraqis dont want another war so an International Conference that brings the arabs the iranians that brings the europeans the chinese the russians and the americans i think is indispensable today. Well and many thanks indeed our senior political analyst now on bashar and a lot. About whats being described as the clearest report yet on how Climate Change is overheating our planets oceans and grasses the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change says that the rate of ocean warming has doubled since 1993 and will continue to rise oceans absorb 90 percent of its excess heat and heat waves have doubled in frequency since the early 1980 s. In the race is expected to increase the i. P. C. C. Says that sea levels will rise affecting hundreds of millions of people in low lying and coastal areas before the end of this century on the all scenarios the report predicts the marine life will continue to decline and the report details how glasses snow cover and Arctic Sea Ice will continue to melt the consequences for nature and humanity are sweeping in severe. This report highlights also the urgency of timely ambitious who would need an enduring action. What is its stake in the health of ecosystems wildlife and importantly the world we leave for our children greenpeace scientists are building a case to protect more marine areas of zeros nick clarke reports now from the South Atlantic Ocean off the coast of south america. Yes were on board the greenpeace ship esperanza where scientists are investigating a newly discovered area of reef were about 600 kilometers from the mouth of the amazon in that direction and about 130 kilometers from the shore French Guiana and scientists here on board a conducting all manner of research from the seabed to the surface hoping to bolster the case for protection of the worlds oceans to the chuen of 30 percent by the year 2030 the team here following closely the publication of this report which lays out in stark terms how the oceans are warming the dangers of Sea Level Rise which could affect hundreds of millions of people and the impact on bio diversity in earlier we spoke to a plane from the French Center for Scientific Research and he gave us his assessment the concern is 1st of all very personal views that i i grew up we have a world weve a certain scenario we were certain vision of the world and then we were certain wildlife and im always a little sad thing that i will leave to my daughter ive got a daughter shes pretty young shes only 20 years plus and so i will leave that were a very different sum to what i get and so its a personal sense of the 1st before scientific i would say sincerely on that in the context of the i. P. C. C. You get to worry about larvae ive been able in several centuries and 1000000 to adapt to different and then suddenly changing that habitat transforming that he thought and so the end of these these are the end of those 4 and we dont know exactly but clearly theyll be strongly affected yes the climate is changing and yes our finances changing yes we are getting into over temperature and this is this is this is going to change are all rabbits this is not going to be all the changing the wildlife this is going to change also all the agriculture this is going to change also where we living and then our lifestyle. Playing that well its evident that the oceans of the world are taking a direct hit when it comes to the Climate Crisis its also clear that research and science like which were seeing here on the esperanza its crucial if we are to mitigate the worst effects of Climate Change an earthquake has hit eastern pakistan killing at least 33. 00 people and injuring hundreds more the 5. 00 magnitude quakes epicenter was close to the city of near poor in pakistan administered kashmir an emergency has been declared off the homes and cars were badly damaged when roads collapse till the quake brought down an entire building as people were fleeing the area people there reported walls swaying with each trauma the brother of algerias deposed president has been sentenced to 15 years in prison for plotting against the state and undermining the army saeed beautifully was convicted by a military court along with 2 former intelligence chiefs at the head of a Political Party who are also jails the highest profile prosecutions since president up to lizzies beautifully resigned in april after 20 years in power a months of protests against his rule china has opened its 2nd International Airport in beijing hoping that dashing this huge scale will reduce frequent delays and cancellations in the capital but there are currents concerns that tight military control of the airspace will mean that things would actually change that much. Matheson reports. In beijing this is known as the 11000000000 dollar starfish the new deicing International Airport just south of chinas Capital Raising i declare this airport open. The timing of the official opening is significant coming just days before the 70th anniversary of the founding of the peoples republic of china the airports expected to handle 300. 00 takeoffs and landings every hour on at least 4 runways and 72000000 passengers every year by 2025 china aims to make dashing the worlds busiest aviation. B. G. We want to make beijing International Airport and work class convenient and easy fish in new to work to the country u. S. Plane maker boeing says the number of chinas wealthy middle class who are most likely to travel will double within 10 years it says that within that time one in 5 Airline Passengers around the globe will be chinese and boeing wants to build the airliners theyll fly in predicting the Chinese Market will eventually be worth around 3 trillion dollars and that some market the Worlds Airlines and plane makers want access to but orders are threatened by the trade war between china and the u. S. And its not clear how that will affect boeings order book chinas government has been encouraging National Airlines to buy domestically produced aircraft that are already big orders in for short haul planes but one company is waiting for certification for the long haul aircraft and that analysts say means that china has global ambitions for its air industry there are other issues to chinas military controls about 80 percent of chinas airspace in the past civilian flights have been blocked with little or no warning and thats led to major delays or Flight Cancellations and a lot of frustration for air passengers at this point you. Have a very different attitude safety of the capital and of the country come 1st but you see much. Less of these kind of arbitrary closings which may hamper some meeting to the military but if youre trying to get from shanghai to beijing you just dont understand chinas leaders will be hoping the new airport who so beijing is open for business and take the pressure off the overcrowded Capital Airport chinas air chunk of those will be hoping their flights take off on time not matheson aljazeera beijing. The main news this is that the white house has released the transcript of u. S. President Donald Trumps call with ukraines leader and the transcript confirms that President Trump aust the ukrainian president to investigate fall of Vice President joe biden for more on this lets go to a White House Correspondent kimberly hellcats whos on capitol hill right now kimberly what are we to make of all of this. You know before this transcript was released by the white house u. S. President donald trump on twitter questioned whether or not democrats would apologize publicly after seeing what he says are applied was a essentially what he believed to be an innocuous transcript but in reading the transcript its unlikely that democrats are going to be issuing any sort of apology in fact it seems to confirm the reason that nancy pelosi the House Speaker here on capitol hill the house of representatives has called for these impeachment proceedings to begin and that is that it does confirm in this transcript that that call that took place in july between the president of ukraine and the u. S. President donald trump dollops trump specifically asks for a favor after implying that the United States has been very good to ukraine he goes on to as sensually what democrats. The use and abuse of political power in the oval office and that is to investigate former Vice President joe biden who currently is one of the president s political rivals seeking the democratic president ial nomination potentially to go up against donald trump as he seeks reelection so this is what the democrats here on capitol hill are likely to focus on it certainly does seem to incriminate the president with regard to the contents of the transcript released by the white house the president very specifically asked the president of ukraine as to in turn have his attorney general investigate can you take care of that these are all of the things that are deeply concerning to many here on capitol hill Many Americans and what triggered that whistle blowers complaint we believe the fact that this was an unusual use of president ial power so what happens next can believe. Well right now there are still many committees 6 in fact that are investigating we should be clear for anyone who thinks this is going to lead to an immediate removal of President Trump from office just the opposite the wheels of government move very slowly so there has not actually been a triggering of an actual vote in the house of representatives that would need to happen democrats control that body and it was likely if there was a vote they could move to impeach the president but he can only be removed from office by the senate and that is controlled by republicans making this much more difficult now in the midst of all of this we should point out adrian that the us president has been on social media on twitter all morning defending himself arguing that this is yet another political witch hunt much like the Russian Investigation where he used the same term but what seems to be different what makes this kind of a Seismic Shift is that many moderate democrats were not in favor of impeachment up to this point but they believe this is one clear issue that voters can coalesce around where they believe the president has gone too far and thats what seems to be tipping the scales in favor of impeachment in the minds of so Many Democrats and thats what makes this problematic for us President Donald Trump regardless of whether this investigation goes ahead on north house Speaker Pelosi and the president still have to Work Together whats going to happen to the relationship theyre going to be able to Work Together to to make things happen in go gross. Well thats what concerned many moderate democrats is that the legislating is just going to grind to a halt and that is a legitimate concern because what were going to have here now is the house of representatives myer to debate and pressing forward when many of the moderate democrats here argued look at the voters are going to have that option of a little more than a years time to vote themselves theres no need for us to vote but they feel that this issue is just one issue too far whereas the russian investigators who was very lucky with the issue of the president s tax returns are profiting from Public Office was something that was confusing for voters they feel that this one phone call that took place in july this is something that voters can wrap their heads around so now they are taking this Political Risk but it does have the possibility of blowback for democrats if the voters feel that as many have speculated this is only going to rally more of the democrat or Republican Base around president tom who feel that he has been targeted from the beginning this could actually hurt democrats long term in the election in 2020 but for now this is something that the democrats feel strongly about and are moving forward with the Committee Many thanks they dont want house correspondent kelly how could live on capitol hill this is out as they were waiting at the moment for irans president Hassan Rouhani to work to give his speech at the u. N. General assembly which will bring hell bly is hit on aljazeera but 2 World Leaders are noticeably missing from the United NationsGeneral Assembly in new york this year venezuelas president dickless bhutto is currently in moscow having held talks with his russian counterparts president Vladimir Putin is one of the few heads of state who still recognize his friend as well as a battlefield as legitimate he reiterated his support for but also says that russia backs dialogue between the 2 those government and the opposition lets get more now from a serious step boston in moscow. Instead of offering new money president Vladimir Putin offered a new piece of advice to Nicolas Maduro he actually urged the venezuelan president to continue to dialogue with the opposition he even said it would be dangerous for an israeli if thats not going to happen definitely this was not what model is hoping to hear here in moscow he was actually hoping to get more money no agreements no contracts have been signed here after this breakfast meeting in moscow and the dual needs urgently money because china has pulled out of an Oil Agreement has not been buying any oil from venezuela last month which is a very serious impact for the already impoverished economy in venezuela but president putin has clearly said enough is enough we have already invested at least 4000000000. 00 in direct loans but they are asked to make up to 17000000000. 00 u. S. Dollars has been invested by russia in the venezuelan economy mostly in the oil and Defense Industry so basically putin is now hoping that with. Opposition dialogue between the opposition that the country will be stable more stable and that these investments will be safe egyptian Rights Groups say that Security Forces have arrested around a 1000 people so the government process began last Week Amnesty International is calling on World Leaders gathered at. The u. N. General assembly to confront egypts president. Sisi more protests are planned in egypt for this coming friday. A publicist and thats how lawyers are describing boeings offer of compensation to the relatives of passion just killed in 2 plane crashes each claimant has been offered 140000. 34 passengers and crew dies in the 737 Max Disasters in indonesia and ethiopia some of them were from kenya and their relatives have been speaking to aljazeera as malcolm webb is. Saying life was cut short for george. His sister says she didnt even know he travelled from his home in march here in kenyas capital nairobi until she heard the Airlines Plane had crashed and that george was among the 157 people on board nosedived into the ground near addison 6 minutes after takeoff investigations are ongoing that boeings anti stool software known as m cas has been widely blamed. So that it was not in that. And it goes through of the news let it be but youre focusing on this thats how he died. And its not the 1st time boeings m caste system has been blamed for a crash 6 months earlier a lion airplane crashed into the java sea minutes after takeoff from indonesias capital jakarta who 189 people on board died the aircraft in both crashes were blowing 737 max regulators around the world since grounded it. Airlines often face lifts occasion off the air disasters manufacturers often try and blame the pilots and the airlines often try and blame the manufacturers for a technical fault following the European Airlines crash the 2nd of 2 similar accidents lawyers representing the families of those on board say they have a strong precedented case against boeing boeing did wrong on husseins representing 12 families including asters there among many more who filed suit against boeing in the u. S. In the 20 years ive been working on airline litigation cases ive never seen a case like this and in this particular case its clear that boeing put profit over safety and decided to ignore all of the red flags all of the warnings that were occurring that it had and continue to market sell and deliver this dangerous product. Boeing says it supporting investigations but doesnt comment on the lawsuit is the Worlds Largest aircraft manufacturer and one of americas Largest CompaniesIndustry Experts say its likely to pay dearly for to survive for boeing of course being on the receiving end of legal action from the families is just part of a wider picture of a lot of legal action that is either being taken or set to be taken by the industry including by Leasing Companies who operate these and while this will be a very significant hit in the x. Factor as life time. To fly investigations and court cases are expected to last months victims families say they want to see boeing held to account as to knows it wont bring george back but she says the planes need to be made safe so nobody else suffers the same fate.

Well you didnt want to subpoena those 1000000 women today september 24th 2019 we are now closing a dark chapter in our history and we will start to remove francos remains from where they have lain in morally for far too long because no enemy of democracy deserves to lay in a place of worship or institutional respect victims of francos regime are happy with the decision its divided Public Opinion in spain as victoria gave the reports. To many spaniards general Francisco Franco was the hero to many others he was a dictator the the for the relatives of the republican victims who died fighting fascist forces in the spanish civil war the Supreme Courts decision was one made Long Campaign for the franc has remained should not lie in a publicly funded state.

Or this Supreme Court ruling looks like finally ending decades of controversy over the way he should be buried Victoria Gate and be there so much you want to get of the breaking news this hour the white house has released a transcript of u. S. President Donald Trumps call with ukraine as leader in july of this here and according to the transcript the president did ask ukraines leda for help to investigate. Former Vice President joe biden lots of bring in once again our White House Correspondent kelly how could his on capitol hill right now whats being made of this rather explosive developments in the in the last hour the kimberley. Right well a couple of things have been happening and ill get our control room to give a little guidance on whether or not we have some sound from the House Majority leader the Top Republican in the house of representatives all happily throat of that if you can let me know if we have that sound cut or not but we do know that he has in fact given us a press release there or rather a press conference that essentially lays out the republican position on all of this and and what that position is is that theres a feeling that democrats have never rics up to the result of the 2016 us election that they have been calling for impeachment multiple times in fact we should point out there has been a vote on the house of the floor in the house of representatives 3 times and this is what the majority leader for the republicans Kevin Mccarthy has been underscoring that they have repeatedly democrats that is in the eyes of republicans tried to impeach this president this would be another attempt to do that and this time they feel they have the traction so that is from the republican perspective we should also point out that in the u. S. Senate which is the Upper Chamber across from capitol hill from where im standing right now the top democrat in that republican controlled body Chuck Schumer has also been speaking coming countering what the g. O. P. Leader here in the house has been saying what hes been saying is that this transcript does not in any way the one that was released of the will from the white house of the telephone call between the u. S. President the ukrainian president does not in any way assuage their concerns in fact it heightens concerns it believes in the eyes of democrats here on capitol hill that there needs to be even more scrutiny more information that this transcript that was released in essence underscores their biggest fears that the u. S. President allegedly abused his power in office to investigate a political rival former vice pres. Isnt it joe biden in the now theyre pushing for the white house or rather the whistle blower who 1st brought this to light the reported this to the Intelligence CommitteeInspector General that he should be allowed to testify and theyre also calling for his complaint to be released and this is really whats pushed all this adrian into the forefront is the fact that the white house was directing the director of National Intelligence to prevent congress from seeing this Information Congress still doesnt have that information what we do know is that the director of National Intelligence will be here on capitol hill testifying about this information but this is likely to just open this issue even wider bringing up even more questions and concerns in the eyes of democrats even as republicans try to play down the significance i can believe anything state company how could life for us on capitol hill. Clinton who course was the candidate that donald trump beats to the presidency in the 2016 election has tweeted the president of the United States is patrolling to a country thats not a political statement its a harsh reality and we must act he is a clear and present danger to the things that keep us strong and free i support impeachment she tweets has much more on this and the rest of the days news with kemal santa maria whos here with us how in just a few moments and of course stand by for irans president rouhani has to speak at the u.

And nancy in the house of representatives moving forward with an official impeachment inquiry its time to stop this nonsense. The impeachment officially underway as the white house details of the questionable conversation with the president of ukraine a release. Also new signatories to the 2015 Iran Nuclear Deal say they remain committed but admits its becoming increasingly difficult.

And the deteriorating state of the worlds oceans a new report on Global Warming reveals a huge threat to humanity. So in the past hour the white house has released the details of the july 25th phone call between president obama trump and the president of ukraine valda made selenski it is a quest conversation that has become the focus for democrats and their official call for an impeachment inquiry in the call president trying to rip creatively brought up his political rival joe biden and his son hunter suggesting the 2 should be investigated and that is that conversation that has led to the democrats decision to launch an impeachment inquiry. The actions of the Trump Presidency reveal its dishonorable fact of the president s betrayal of his oath of office betrayal of our National Security and the integrity of our elections therefore today im announcing the house of representatives moving forward with an official impeachment inquiry and directing our 6 committees to proceed with their investigations under that umbrella of impeachment inquiry the president must be held accountable no one is above the law ok our White House Correspondent of course is Kimberly Howell coaches on capitol hill today hi kimberly i mean so many developments in this past hour the thing which keeps coming back to me is that the president has released what appears to be a transcript they calling it a memorandum but a transcript of a phone call which he thinks doesnt incriminate him but it would appear that it does. Indeed you have the u. S. President donald trump tweeting just before the white house released this edited transcript what he believes would be a call for democrats to apologize for to him that this is not in any way incriminating but i can tell you thats not how this edited transcript is being received here on capitol hill in fact just the opposite they believe this opens up more questions than answers because they allege this is just an ironclad piece of evidence that they have been looking for that the president has been repeatedly or in this case of a phone call in july abused his president ial powers take a listen or take a look with me with this transcript weve got it up for you and those i would like you to do us a favor thats President Trump and then ask him to look into a Company Called crowd strike him being the ukrainian president it was hired to investigate the hack of the Democratic National committee in the 2016 election trump goes on to say whenever you cant whatever you can do its very important that you do it if thats possible and then truck referred to a very good prosecutor fired calling the incident really unfair ukraines former top prosecutor victor show can was viewed to be by many to be soft on corruption the United States and other western governments called for him to be fired will biden was Vice President and then trump goes on in this edited transcript to tell us alinsky the ukrainian president theres a lot of talk about bidens son thats former Vice President joe biden he then asked him to look into allegations the former Vice President had show can fire and this is what the democrats come out are really focusing on they believe that not only did the president misused but he abused his president ial powers to damage a political rival namely former Vice President joe biden who of course is run. To be the democratic president ial nominee against donald trump in the 2020 us president ial election. Clearly the democrats must be thrilled with this i dont know if theres been any official reaction yet but this is exactly what they want for their for their argument. Well there is a little bit of reaction u. S. Senator Chuck Schumer who is the top democrat in the republican controlled u. S. Senate has said that this is not as waged there are concerns in any way this release of this transcript in fact its heightened theyre calling for the whistleblower who 1st alerted the Inspector General of the Intelligence Community about this call for him to or her to be able to testify theyre also calling for the complaint to be released but republicans including u. S. President donald trump are karas to rising this as yet another democratic witch hunt they point to the fact that for 31 months democrats have not accepted the results of the 2016 u. S. Election theyve already had 3 impeachment votes on the floor of the house of representatives in fact not only has Kevin Mccarthy the republican leader here in the house said that this is politically motivated but that is underscored by a representative by the name of mr kingston take a listen to what he had to say. This is politics Everybody Knows that the democrats have been trying to get some sort of traction because the economys going were at peace americans are feeling optimistic wages are unemployment is at historic low and the democrats are trying to get traction theyve been trying this all year long if they really felt that they could have an impact they should have kept their mouths shut they should have not been talking about russia russia russia they should not have been talking about Stormy Daniels and michael levy on me but here we are just one more ploy on their book and by the way we all know this isnt going to go anywhere in the senate if nancy pelosi was really worried she would say before we move lets look at the evidence lets try to get some republicans on board if we can get republicans on board based on evidence maybe this thing had a real chance but the fact is this is just like the russian probe its political its and its trying to turn over the 2016 election which the democrats tried to do even before trump was sworn into office. Kimberly a final thought for you and this is more big picture and i feel it is always important to remind people that in the United States whilst this word has now out impeachment and it now looks bad for donald trump in the u. S. Impeachment does not mean removal. And weve seen this before in the case of u. S. President bill clinton when he was impeached by a republican controlled house of representatives the Democrat Controlled Senate back then did not remove him from office the very same thing could happen again in the reverse this time weve got the house controlled by democrats republicans controlling the u. S. Senate thats very likely come out the point is is that the house is the one that will vote and that has not even been triggered just yet to remove the president from office but only the senate has the power to do so so its very possible republicans would not support that but i point you to one vote that took place in the senate yesterday and that is significant because while republicans have always supported donald trump what they did you never miss lee support the democrats on and there was a unanimous vote in the senate was to release this whistle blowers complain that significant the republicans want to see just as much as the democrats what is there and provide the daylight for the American Public that could be troublesome for president trouble if republicans start to side with democrats that they are concerned about the busa of president ial power because you have to remember congress is the one that checks and has that balance of power with the white house this could be very concerning for the president but in the midst of all of this with the white house is maintaining is his phone call is not the real story the real story is what Vice President joe biden may or may not have allowed well he was in office whether his son in any way profited from the the his father being in office with energy deals this is what the white house is trying to focus on but i can tell you thats not what anyones talking about in washington right now that is kambli how could a White House Correspondent thank you for all of that kimberly. We will return to that story shortly but also were looking at day 2 of the 74th session of the u. N. General assembly and irans leader Hassan Rouhani is slated to address World Leaders at the general debate shortly hes promised to lay out a new plan for security in the gulf one that excludes the United States tension between the u. S. And iran have increased after recent attacks on 2 major Oil Facilities in saudi arabia washington says iran was behind the attacks terror on denies that of course leaders are pushing for a meeting between trump and rouhani but irans foreign minister has just said there is 0 chance of that earlier iran joining the remaining members of the 2015 nuclear deal they already affirmed their commitment to salvaging the deal off we go to new york now here is president Hassan Rouhani approaching the podium in the General Assembly at the United Nations.
