Disappeared in mexico new arrest warrants issued for members of the mexican military. And we look at the state election thats delivered a boost from malaysias beleaguered Prime Minister. Im side of all the latest sports news including and its caused an injury time penalty to down brighton and Manchester United their 1st me when of the season. We begin in washington this hour where the u. S. President donald trump will soon nominate the person he wants to replace the late Supremes Court Justice Ruth Bader ginsburg its widely expected that he will nominate judge amy carney barretts a favorite among religious conservatives and if confirmed her appointment would cement a solid conservative majority on the court potentially for decades to come so lets go live now to the white house and al jazeera can really help it so this is the formal announcement were about to get from President Trump but it wont be a big reveal kimberly. And we expect that we already know that it will be judge kone barrett that will be named to the high court now this is just a nomination but the secret getting out late on friday and while the white house refuses to confirm its highly believe that in fact this is the pick for replacing Justice Ruth Bader ginsburg and in many ways she is a polar opposite of judge ginsburg particularly when it comes to the issue of abortion rights and that is why many are concerned given that she has a background that is deeply religious many are fearful that this could in some way affect her decisions something she has denied repeatedly so were watching very carefully the u. S. President set to make this announcement in the rose garden any moment we know that he did meet with judge barretts number of times this week on monday and again on tuesday and as you reported she is highly popular with religious conservatives here in the United States and its believed that in many ways this appointment if in fact it is who we believe it is d is that in fact this would energize the president s base many who in recent years have been a little bit on the fence of being whether or not they want to vote for the president to be reelected the white house hoping that this will clinch that for the president allowing him a 2nd term we might be about to get the announcement kimberly and we know that the process is kind of move it will as quickly as the republicans can can encourage it to do so but nonetheless theres not a lot of time to vote on this before election day and actually here they are President Trump just emerging there in the rose garden. Thats right in terms of how this process could play out its unprecedented weve never had a process move at the speed at which this white house is hoping the confirmation of judge barrett could be watching very carefully it looks as if the president is now walking in and set to make that announcement momentarily but as we continue to watch the monitors what i can tell you is that this is just a nomination it needs to be confirmed in the Republican Controlled Senate its expected back and happen but again the timeline im president of were 38 days from the u. S. President ial election and theres a little bit of hypocrisy in all of this because donald trump has already made 2 appointments to the high courts and we know that previously barack obama also made 2 appointments when he attempted to make his 3rd it was blocked by republicans in the senate now they are pushing this through and Many Democrats upset about this given the fact that the argument made by republicans in president obamas term was were so close to the election let the American People choose their president and then make this appointment in this case they are doing just the opposite and as you can see there the u. S. President walking towards the podium and i am looking i have to be it doesnt appear that his nomination is judge sarah thank you shes my 3rd search nomination after Justice Gorsuch and Justice Cavanaugh and it is a very proud moment indeed.

I am truly humbled by the prospect of serving on the Supreme Court should i be confirmed i will be mindful of who came before me. The flag of the United States is still flying at half staff in memory of Justice Ruth Bader ginsburg to mark the end of a Great American life Justice Ginsburg began her career at a time when women were not welcome in the Legal Profession but she not only broke glass ceilings she smashed them for that she has won the admiration of women across the country and indeed all over the world. She was a woman of enormous talents and consequence and her life of Public Service serves as an example to us all particularly poignant to me was her long and deep friendship with Justice Antonin Scalia my own mentor justices scalia and ginsburg disagreed fiercely in print without rancor and person their ability to maintain a warm and rich friendship despite their differences even inspired an opera these 2 Great Americans demonstrated that arguments even about matters of great consequence need not destroy affection and both my personal and professional relationships i strive to meet that standard i was lucky enough to clerk for Justice Scalia and given his incalculable influence on my life i am very moved to have members of the school lay a family here today including his dear wife maureen i clerked for Justice Scalia more than 20 years ago but the lessons i learned still resonate his judicial philosophy is mine to a judge must apply the law as written. Judges are not policy makers and they must be resolute and setting aside any policy views they might hold the president has asked me to become the 9th justice and as it happens im used to being in a group of 9 my family our family includes me my husband jesse ama vivian peter liam juliette and benjamin fit in and john peter as the president said were born in haiti and they came to us 5 years apart when they were very young and the most revealing fact about benjamin our youngest is that his brothers and sisters and reservedly identify him as their favorites of bling our children obviously make our life very full while i am a judge im better known back home as a room parent carpool driver and Birthday Party planner when schools went remote last spring i tried on another hat jesse and i became cold principals of the barrett learning academy. And yes the list of enrolled students was a very long one our children are my greatest joy even though they deprived me of any reasonable amount of sleep i couldnt manage this very full life without the end wavering support of my husband jesse. At the start of our marriage i imagine that we would run our household as partners as it has turned out jesse does far more than his share of the work to my chagrin i learned a dinner recently that my children consider him to be the better cook for 21 years jesse has asked me every single morning what he can do for me that day. And though i almost always say nothing he still finds ways to take things off my plate and thats not because he has a lot of free time he has a busy law practice its because he is a superb and generous husband and i am very fortunate jesse that. Jesse and i have a life full of relationships not only with our children but with siblings friends and fearless babysitters one of whom is with us today i am particularly grateful to my parents mike and linda conny i spent the bulk of i have spent the bulk of my adulthood as a midwesterner but i grew up and their new orleans home and as my brother and sisters can also attest mom and dads generosity extends not only to us but to more people than any of us could count they are an inspiration it is important at a moment like this to acknowledge family and friends but this evening i also want to acknowledge you my fellow americans the president has nominated me to serve on the United States Supreme Court and that institution belongs to all of us if confirmed i would not assume that role for the sake of those in my own circle and certainly not for my own sake i would assume this role to serve you i would discharge the judicial oath which requires me to administer Justice Without respect to persons due equal rights to the poor and rich and faithfully and impartially discharge my duties under the United States constitution i have no illusions that the road ahead of me will be easy either for the short term or the long haul. I never imagined that i would find myself in this position but now that i am i assure you that i will meet the challenge with both humility and courage members of the United States senate i look forward to working with you during the confirmation process and i will do my very best to demonstrate that i am worthy of your support thank you. And. As president earlier pointed out this is now his 3rd pick for the u. S. Supreme court judge a meek only barrett who we were just hearing from there she has been nominated by the president just 38 days away from the u. S. Election a decision that will result that could result in a decisive shift in a conservative direction in the highest court in the country if she is eventually confirmed and of course we know that Senate Republicans are going to move very quickly to confirm the president s choice before the election takes place in november following all of this our White House Correspondent kimberly whole kit and of course kimberly this comes at a really critical time for President Trump when momentum in the polls is with his rival for the white house joe biden. Absolutely in the polls also show that most americans believe that the election should be held 1st before this replacement nomination was to be announced but the u. S. President moving ahead and as you mention the timeline very tight we know that the confirmation hearings for amy kone parent to be appointed to the Supreme Court will take place somewhere in the neighborhood of october 12th with a vote coming sometime around october 29th remember the u. S. Election is november 3rd this is absolutely unprecedented and again as we were discussing before this announcement of this in some ways hypocritical given the fact that the senators did the blocking of an appointment a 3rd appointment by barack obama when he attempted to do something similar to the u. S. President doing right now now in terms of this announcement there were a number of key things that the president said and judge Amy Kone Barrett said that i think are pivotal that we should point out specifically there are concerns about her credentials in terms of the fact that she clerked for judge Antonin Scalia who is known as a highly conservative justice before his death she clerked for him and she expects to carry on in his tradition acknowledging there that in fact she believes that he is one of the greatest influences on her life the u. S. President trying to reassure perhaps nervous liberal voters in the United States about her bought a feeding saying in fact that she will be honoring the law as written im not sure that will reassure many liberals because the debate in the United States is whether of the u. S. Constitution as a 5 legally whether it is a living document to as liberals liberals believe that it is an old document that needs to be sort of interpreted with the times or whether it is in the tradition of judge amy kone beret and justice antonin. When he was on the high court at lax chillis meaning as written so we heard the u. S. President affirming that he believes what the American Public wants is a justice who interprets law as written does not make policy from the bench as we heard from Amy Kone Barrett so what shes saying is that that is how she expects to carry out the law if she is confirmed this is going to be a very fine point that will be debated as it heads up to the u. S. Senate for again that very tight confirmation hearing process and one other thing that we did hear in there that i think is important is that remember the last time that the u. S. Supreme Court Confirmation hearings took place for Justice Cavanagh it was bitter it was divided there were allegations that in fact he had committed Sexual Assault the deeply divided america the u. S. President cautioning American Voters and also the politicians involved in this process to spare or just judge Amy Kone Barrett this process in terms of the smear campaigns that we saw the previous round so the tensions very high this is a high stakes battle now that moves to capitol hill but again the u. S. President has always promised that he would try to shape the court in his presidency it has become rather import to him given the fact its not clear to any american right now whether or not he will win reelection all right thank you very much i want house correspondent can we thank you kimberly of course as were hearing on the nomination of any kind barack could add another conservative voice and Supreme Court potentially and that would further to shift the balance of power to the right 48 year old is a judge on the chicagos federal court of appeals and has a large following in the religious right because of his stance against abortion mike hanna reports. I can give to women judge Amy Kone Barrett was on the shortlist to fill the last Supreme Court vacancy but it was controversial pick Rick Cavanagh who was appointed President Trump reportedly telling advisers at the time he was keeping barack to replace Ruth Bader Ginsburg when the time came and so it has the nomination being made just over a week off the death of the iconic liberal justice and in defiance of a last wish that the nomination be made after novembers election unlike the justice she will replace amy barrett is a strong opponent of abortion we do know from her record that she has raised questions about abortion rights and also suggested that there are many more abortion restrictions that she would find allowable under the law then say Justice Ginsburg during her confirmation hearing for the 7th Circuit Court of appeals the devolved catholic and mother of 7 was quizzed about whether her religion would influence her position on the road be weighed case a landmark Supreme Court decision guaranteeing a womans right to choose i think in your case professor when you read your speeches. The conclusion one draw us is that that dogma lives loudly within you and. Thats of concern being considered for a position where the peers and there would be no opportunity to be a no vote on roe and as i said to the kuwaiti i would faithfully apply our Supreme Court precedent among her staunchest supporters at that time as he is now was the Senate Majority leader professor birch writings and her testimony clearly show a nominee who will uphold our constitution that our nations laws as they are written as they are written not as she wishes they were. This was a philosophical piece of her previous supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia for whom amy barrett worked as a clerk early in her career and shes made it clear she will follow her mentors originalist stance resting on the belief that the Supreme Court appliance of law as outlined by the constitution but leaves it to congress to make law the constitution set a floor below which we cant go but that above that floor there is a lot of room for democracy for the people to add additional protections in to make changes to do it this is a free world view if confirmed a new barito drawing 5 other justices who share this belief the 3 others ive been through largely argue the constitution is a living document that reflects a changing society now very much in the minority. My camera aljazeera well now were joined by bruce fein a former us associate Deputy Attorney general is in washington so this is a court that is obviously extremely powerful its split along ideological and political lines is it likely that it might end up making decisions later on this year that could affect the outcome of the election. Well its possible id like to supplement the observations about the court and philosophy with a little more nuance i knew Justice Scalia was friends with him before he is on the court i helped him appointed to the u. S. Court of appeals before the Supreme Court he wrote opinions denouncing president ial authority to suspend habeas corpus on Guantanamo Bay he wrote opinions holding unconstitutional laws making illegal flag burning he wrote opinions denouncing surveillance without proper warrants based on new technologies that were never present or conceived in the time the 4th amendment was ratified so the idea that you have the simplistic application of any conservative principle means that those pro those prevailing ideals will find their way into a Justice Scalia or there is jurisprudence if shes faithful to his background i think is misplaced remember also that Justice Scalia as much as he thought roe versus wade was misguided that abortion precedent thats now 47 years old he didnt vote to overrule it the issues that have been confronted the court in the last years where you had liberals and conservatives disagree have been kind of the curly cues on the right to abortion whether or not you can have certain waiting periods whether or not there are certain safety requirements you can have abortion clinics but not the heart of the principle that a womans right to choose prevails and if amy baird is to be faithful to Justice Scalias background and teachings a she would be extremely reluctant if not resistance to overruling precedents that are now 50 years older its what justice. Alito and roberts called their double precedence because they roe v wade principles reaffirmed and planned parenthood versus casey as i said i see it you think you think its i mean obviously its a very tight schedule theres going to be. Nation hearings but as a has a lot of has a lot to schedule because we just over a month to go to the election this sort of it takes a great deal of preparation is it likely shell be confirmed before the election but we dont know 1st of all this scheduling is really a matter of Senate Custom i mean there have been instances where a nominee has been confirmed in one day it wasnt until the one 930. 00 s. That a nominee even was present to testify so all these rules can be changed overnight now typically its true you would have an f. B. I. Background investigation which takes times to ensure that no skeletons in the closet that happened in the case of brain cavanagh if you run for too fast you may miss those and when someones on the bench it creates great controversy and embarrassment happened in the case of a fortress and is receiving money from the Wolfson Foundation and otherwise so theres risk of running past an ability of the f. B. I. To do a complete Background Investigation but if i said ill still to i just ask you a couple of other questions sorry very quickly because were running out of time. What sort of what line of questioning you expecting has to get. Well i think of the democrats have any brains at all will insist on her standards for recusal after all the most significant thing she could do would be participating in a post november 3rd election challenge to the outcome of the vote as bush versus gore and she would be if she participated would have a clear conflict of interest shes voting on the rights and the authorities of the person who simply elevated her to the Supreme Court so insisting that she have a clear commitment to recuse herself like Justice Rehnquist did when the nixon tapes came up and rehnquist had been in the Nixon Administration to ensure that his nomination will not change and alter the outcome of any post november 3rd election dispute the other things that i would focus on if im questioning her is her real understanding in depth of the Justice Scalia principles the ones that are much more nuanced than rather the stereotype that has come forth about me just saying we cant for instance what do you reckon about public polling is it going to shift much from this i think it will shift in my judgment and i think that if anything the democrats will be more awakened in iraq was and concerned and perhaps their base will be more animated then the republican side because the stakes are already much higher for the democrats after all even with the current Supreme Court somewhat divided with chief Justice Roberts playing a centrist role its still a conservative court whereas the stakes so that if shes confirmed or not it doesnt really change the overall philosophy of the high court the stakes for the democrats are much much higher i think they are understand that which is why money came in by the bundles right after the vacancy of band of Ruth Bader Ginsburg opened for me as Deputy Attorney general is fine thank you. Thank you. Turning to some other stories were covering now after less than a month the man who was supposed to be lebanons next Prime Minister says he doesnt want the job was to fire a db says his bid to form a government was doomed to fail because of a complicated political system which has pal between muslims and christians is resignation has dealt a blow to france which is pushing lebanon to fix its financial crisis sen reports from beirut. Its been almost a month since most the for a deal was designated Prime Minister his job was to form a government independent of Party Loyalists after the previous cabinet resigned following the devastating explosion at the port of beirut last month its not easy in lebanon where the same political elite accused of pushing the country to near bankruptcy have been in power for decades i realize that the agreement on the basis i accepted this National Mission during this difficult time of lebanons history no longer exists as well as that the government line up with this specific ations that i put failed. Mission was supported by france which has been leading International Efforts to resolve lebanons multiple crises by bringing change to the leadership president in mind where mccall said during his 2nd visit after the port blast that lebanese politicians agreed to form a cabinet by mid september see an already. Fragile skepticism with this class and was very much a final ultimatum so i would be surprised if the french choose to give that same strategy another shot the Armor Movement and hezbollah backed by iran have been blamed for standing in the way of a deal by insisting on naming shia muslim representation in government a 1000000 hezbollah are part of the socalled march 8th alliance that currently control political power in the sectarian based system of government here the shia parties feel the other camp the march 14th alliance is carrying else a political coup against the results of the last election. But others say their loyalty to iran brings lebanon into the heart of the us iranian rivalry there are 3 and they are squeezed cornered instead of being them through hezbollah on the border those in the area and israel has moved towards near the borders of iran so basically yes it is in the core of the conflict in. Iranian conflict much is in. Doubt for a country where more than 50 percent of its 5000000 people are officially poor the reforms the mandate by the International Community to unlock Financial Assistance among them fighting corruption and its likely to hurt and implicate the Political Class that is why leaders resisted for years microns roadmap however doesnt just set deadlines it warns of possible consequences this is a broken and broken nation not even the threat of western sanctions pushed politicians who are stronger than the state to give up power and agree to change some say the French Initiative to save lebanon has died others say it could still be revived but the lebanese president did warn the country was going to hell if a government is not formed its not a. Boot. Now to mexico investigators have issued arrest warrants for members of the military who could be linked to the disappearance of dozens of students in 2014 the mexican president has been meeting the families of 43 students meanwhile protests have been continuing in the capital demanding answers and justice and accountability the group was abducted by local police in the town of 6 years ago students reportedly then turned over to a gang is believed to have killed them and burned their bodies but the families and the relatives of those students have long been asking for answers and 6 years on the response has been unacceptable from the government and they continue with their calls as they protest there in in mexico city. Has said that the meetings between Lopez Obrador and the parents really symbolizes a new path the investigation is taking into the disappearance of their children. Whats unprecedented here and unexpected is the that this is the 1st time that were hearing of arrest warrants being issued for members of mexicos Security Forces also significant in this meeting that took place today is that this is the 1st time that were hearing in official apology on behalf of the state from president Lopez Obrador to the to the families of the victims to the families of these 43 missing students but these meetings again now the 3rd that is taking place between the families of the 43 and president Lopez Obrador how to carry quite a bit of significance the they symbolize a new path being forged in this investigation in the way that the that the Mexican Government interacts and now communicates with the with the families of missing persons in the country with every New Discovery with every new piece of evidence thats presented in this investigation with every new announcement of an arrest warrant thats issued it up ends and discredits that original government government narrative from the Previous Administration over what really happened to these 43. 00 students want to bring you some news now from malaysia the Prime Minister has had a significant boost his position there off to the Ruling Alliance won a majority in a state election the election took place and and its the 1st since we had seen yes into power in a political coup in february you might now be emboldened to push for a stronger mandate as florence nearly explains. The summer state election had been billed by many as a referendum on the National Government of Prime Minister we did nothing and its delivered him a boost with parties who back its government when in control of the state assembly. We hadnt came to power in a political coup 7 months ago when he and his supporters would do support from the governing coalition causing its collapse his party known as to and its allies hold a narrow majority in parliament the Prime Minister has been pressured by his allies to call for early elections which are not due till 2023 to secure a stronger mandate the Immediate Reaction is what you did not write me. While i was waiting lot the result of this election well now be and bold and all right we hadnt had personally can paint in sabah and victory here will strengthen his position it will also help and fend off a challenge by Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim who announced last week that he had secured majority support in parliament in a brief televised speech the Prime Minister thank to voters for putting their trust in his government and the. State government there will be formed will be given full support from the federal government led by me as Prime Minister of this country and god willing we will fulfill our Campaign Promises as soon as we came to the best of our ability.
