Last night on truth social the former president said joe biden had turned the United States � into a third world country. Here he is after securing the nomination. We will not take time to celebrate. We will celebrate in eight months when the election is over. Novemberfiftf, i believe, will go down as the most important day in the history of our country, so start thinking about it, start thinking about your vote, because this vote would be the most important vote youve ever cast. Im sparing a thought for the people in the seven Battleground States who will be also altered from here to november by ads, surrogates, the nominees, it would be a long stretch. ,. ,. , stretch.

That is what it is about, i the Battleground States where it could go either way, the map is pretty much drawn and theres been much redistricting that the Electoral College nowadays determines everything, and is interesting that trump has never won the popular vote and usually the victor doesnt usually always win the popular vote, so will come down to the Battleground States. I am particularly looking at michigan, the whole issue of Arab Americans against President Biden over his gaza policy, and im interested to see if that will result in a lack of turnout at the polls for fighting, if voters just a home, i turnout at the polls for fighting, if votersjust a home, i am turnout at the polls for fighting, if voters just a home, i am also looking at georgia now, everyone is thinking georgia will be a key state. ~. , ,. , state.

The white house is trying to make the case that the president l make the case that the president is a scrapper and will fight on Donald Trumps terms over the next seven or eight months. This is what he said last night. Freedom and democracy are at risk here in a way that has not been since the civil war, that choice of wording, the civil war is a deliberate choice of wording and evokes something particular in peoples mind. It evokes something particular in peeples mind evokes something particular in peoples mind. It is, but lots of eole peoples mind. It is, but lots of peeple have peoples mind. It is, but lots of people have been peoples mind. It is, but lots of people have been saying peoples mind. It is, but lots of people have been saying that i peoples mind. It is, but lots of l people have been saying that for some time, that there has been a concern, i would say back to when President Trump was in office, during the whole black lives matter protest, that is polarisation, the two polarisation of america, is being fuelled by this polarised political discourse, so President Biden made clear that democracy is on the ballot, and he is pushing the ideas that former President Trump would be an authoritarian leader, notjust in terms of here but what he is saying in terms of closing up to viktor orban of hungary, and that a second term might not be his last and he may not give up power. So this whole idea of democracy further polarising the country, a potential civil war, this is really what President Biden will push because even though the economy is doing better, there is still a perception here in america that the economy is not doing well, people are still feeling an economic crunch, so the white house feels that President Trumps authoritarian behaviour against democracy is the best narrative. I against democracy is the best narrative. , � ~. , against democracy is the best narrative against democracy is the best narrative. ~. ,. , narrative. I dont know how closely followed the narrative.

So, eight months are out they are already sitting there look at Election Integrity and fight for all they expect to be there in election, we are back to 2020, arent we .

The thing forjoe biden, by donald trump. The thing forjoe biden, youve seen these recent polls biden, youve seen these recent polls from biden, youve seen these recent polls from xes and other people, even polls from xes and other people, even the polls from xes and other people, even the financial times, and the fact that those ties, you mentioned the civil fact that those ties, you mentioned the civil war, but the civil rights era, the civil war, but the civil rights era. The the civil war, but the civil rights era, the ties between black voters and latino era, the ties between black voters and latino voters from that era seems and latino voters from that era seems to and latino voters from that era seems to have been loosened, and it is young seems to have been loosened, and it is young black men and latino men who are is young black men and latino men who are voting on pocketbook issues rather who are voting on pocketbook issues rather than who are voting on pocketbook issues rather than traditional ties to the party, rather than traditional ties to the party, which is worrying for the democrats, particularly in a year where democrats, particularly in a year where the democrats, particularly in a year where the economy is everything. You are riaht, where the economy is everything. Are right, paul, where the economy is everything. Moi. Are right, paul, iwas looking where the economy is everything. Moi. Are right, paul, i was looking today that black and hispanic men can vote republican this time in numbers not seen since eisenhower in the 1950s, which tells the fracturing of his coalition to stop it is a Broad Coalition, and the problem when you have such a Broad Coalition is that everybody has their own issues. It is difficult to keep everyone on board, as we saw in michigan. It is really difficult board, as we saw in michigan. It is really difficult and he saw that in the uk, really difficult and he saw that in the uk, borisjohnson had this extraordinary coalition of Working Class voters and traditional Tory Working Class voters and traditional torv voters Working Class voters and traditional tory voters and it fractured relatively quickly because its hard to keep relatively quickly because its hard to keep it relatively quickly because its hard to keep it together much to feed both audiences. 0ne to keep it together much to feed both audiences. One big advantage that biden has, as well as a disadvantage, is being the incumbent, and being the incumbent, some incumbent, and being the incumbent, some polls incumbent, and being the incumbent, some polls show that in the final year. Some polls show that in the final year, election year, the last several year, election year, the last several elections, being the incumbent has given you a three point incumbent has given you a three point bump in the polls in the final year, point bump in the polls in the final year. And point bump in the polls in the final year, and some suggest, someone who did the year, and some suggest, someone who did the red year, and some suggest, someone who did the Red Wall Analysis here in britain, did the Red Wall Analysis here in britain, looked under the bonnets of american britain, looked under the bonnets of American Polling and thinks if biden can spend American Polling and thinks if biden can spend the next year getting at least can spend the next year getting at least a can spend the next year getting at least a 2 can spend the next year getting at least a 2 turnaround, he can win some least a 2 turnaround, he can win some of least a 2 turnaround, he can win some of the least a 2 turnaround, he can win some of the swing states.

Looking at the states, quite a number are over 20 , they must be looking at that in mar a lago and thinking is a major problem. Mar a lago and thinking is a maor roblem.

Thats right, the question is will these voters vote for biden l is will these voters vote for biden or with a stay home because they are not thrilled about either candidate . There is speculation that there could be a Viable Third Party candidate, i dont think Robert Kennedy is a Viable Third Party candidate, and i think the problem here, which benefits donald trump, which she was double down on, is that when you look at, as you are talking about how the black and latino voters, Working Class, have a Bendin Latino voters, Working Class, have a bend in the party, they feel that the party has really abandoned them because they are not talking about the pocketbook issues that you and paul were just talking about. Theyre talking about progressive issues like abortion, lgbt, these socialjustice issues which are important, but the Democratic Party has always been the party of the Working Class, so when you cant afford to feed your family or are working twojobs, afford to feed your family or are working two jobs, these working twojobs, these progressive issues arent as important to you, and i think the Democratic Party has always taken the splits fir park granted. I know it donald trump us into voters, he said it is time, literally to black people, or what have you got to lose westmark you are not doing anything great with the democrats, what have you got to lose . So he is playing this up, and had incredibly racist language about the black vote recently, that they are carrying around his mug shot because they think hes tough. It is not like hes appealing to them, but the whole idea that the Working Class needs someone to champion them, and the traditional champion, them, and the traditional champion, the democrats, have really gone to the democrats, have really gone to the more progressive and social issues. � ,. , issues.

Judge scott mcafee left most of the racketeering indictment intact. But he has ruled six charges in a ill count indictment were legally defective. It means the former president is now facing 88 charges, over four criminal indictments in georgia, new york, dc, and florida. The committee that marks the uk governments plans for Climate Change adaptation, says we have no credible plan. We all know that we need to move to net zero by 2050. But how . How do we redesign our towns, the buildings we live in, the farms that grow our food . How do we fix our infrastructure, to defend against floods . The latest version of the governments plans were published lastjuly. But the commitee for Climate Changes says it falls far short of what is needed. Baroness brown is chair of adaptation at the ccc. We need to be thinking much more about our urban design and our planning. We need to be thinking about things like urban green space. Were going to see more periods of very intense rainfall, short periods of very intense rainfall. That can cause surface water flooding. Weve seen that a number of times in london in recent years with water pouring down into the tube system. And indeed, theyve seen that in new york relatively recently with water going into the tube, their underground system, but also people being killed in basements as they filled up with water. So we need somewhere for that water to go. Porous surfaces, green space, absolutely critical. You know, were currently paving over our cities and sadly, people are paving over their gardens as well. But green space also provides some some abatement of the urban heat island effect. So it provides cool and shady places for people to go in hot weather and take exercise, so it contributes to wellbeing. And of course, you know, the trees contribute to removing Carbon Emissions from the atmosphere. Long clip, but itjust accentuates how much needs to be done. She said it next piece and vision and money and not enough monitoring or evaluation, a low barfor the next government to clear. I wonder if the structure is right . The government comes up with an idea and produces a plan and the Committee Goes away and his eyes it whether its good for process and says its not.

The bipartisan law and the Information Reduction Act are long overdue and are focused more on reducing emissions and even california, a leader on these issues, only about one fifth of its Climate Budget is a type of these adaptation efforts. You need projects where local areas are pursuing, is notjust about green space, its about electric grids and Water Treatment plants and all of those things in addition to reducing the risk of wildfires in the southwest and all of that stuff it has been the new Warning Systems and it is notjust about building more green space.

I dont think it was a pause and think about the wildfires or disasters, would it who they vote for. But as paul was saying, if you can the dollars and sense of it, then i think it becomes more of an issue. Right now it is a polarising issue. We more of an issue. Right now it is a polarising issue.

Hello from the bbc sport centre. All the latest from the Champions League, in the football to come, but First What A Day for Willie Mullins at the Cheltenham Festival after claiming an historic 100th victory at the famed horse racing event. All the better with his son as the winning jockey in the champion bumper, to clinch the landmark victory. Joe lynskey reports. Willie mullins, 100 not out Cheltenham Festival. It is a cheltenham milestone no one has reached before, 100 wins for this sports greatest trainer. History made with the queen in attendance. This was billed as style wednesday, with a focus round the course on sustainable fashion. In racing, longevity comes from the man in the green coat. Willie mullins started today with 97 wins here, the first race showed the true strength of his yard. Ballyburn out in front in a top five of mullins horses. Mullins� s first win at cheltenham was a 1995 when his dream was to have a horse just fit to race. As fact to file went clear, he had 99 in his career. And in the last race of the day, there was jasmin de vaux. A mullis trained horse with his son patrick on board. A poignant way to seal it for a family and for a sport. Its not something anyone ever dreamed that anyone would ever have 100 winners at cheltenham. To an irish person, cheltenham is the mecca ofjump racing. To have a place like here, which is a place people want to come, it is their cup final, it is there whatever, that is why we have to be the leader that cheltenham is what it is. 100 race wins and no trainer comes close, this Racing Record may never be broken. Joe lynskey, bbc news. The Quarterfinal Line Up for Champions League will be complete this evening, with the last two round of 16 ties taking place. And, theres been some late drama in madrid. Atletico madrid looked to be heading out before this late goal from Memphis Depay levelled the tie at 2 2 against last seasons runners up inter milan. The final whistle has just gone and theyre going to extra time at the metropolitana stadium. Borussia dortmund are also through to the last eight, Jadon Sanchos early goal helping the german side to a 2 0 win on the night against Psv Eindhoven, and a 3 1win on aggregate. There was one heck of a comeback in the Premier League earlier as bournemouth came from three goals down, to win 4 3 against luton town. The loss for luton means they stay in the relegation places. It was a poignant night though for the luton town captain tom lockyer, this match was re arranged from december last year after he suffered a Cardiac Arrest on the pitch. Lockyer met the team who saved his life following the distressing scenes at the vitality which led to the game being abandoned. George north will end his Wales International rugby career this weekend after saturdays final six nations match against italy.

Rory mcilroy is concerned that fans are losing interest in watching golf because of the current fragmented nature of the mens professional game. Liv golf has attracted dozens of players to move from the pga tour and the split means several of the worlds best arent competing at this weeks players championship in florida. If i were a fan, i would want to watch the best players compete against each other week in, week out, and to me, that seems like the lowest hanging fruit. Not the lowest hanging fruit, but basically, ok, i think if you just unify the game and brought us back together in some way, that would be great for the fans. London lions have become the first british mens team to reach the eurocup semi finals after beating romanian side cluj napoca 91 79. The lions had already made history be reaching the quarterfinals and continued their progress with victory in romania. The win followed the London Lions Women Making History as they became the first british Basketball Team to reach a european final by beating Umana Reyer Venice in the eurocup at londons copper box arena. And thats all the sport for now. A reminder that Borussia Dortmund have made that last eight of the Champions League, beating Psv Eindhoven in their round of 16 tie in the interim and nine match has gone to extra time against atletico madrid. See you soon. Hello, Thanks Forjoining me. Its been quite a cloudy day across most of the uk today, some rain too, but its been mild. And if anything, the temperatures are expected to rise a little further as we head into thursday quite breezy too, particularly in scotland. Weve had some gales here. Anyway, heres the satellite picture, and you can see the Rain Bearing Cloud Streaming across the uk. That cloud produced the heavier rain around snowdonia, the north west of england. And through the course of the evening, the Weather Front will be moving northwards. So where we had the clearer skies in the north, well, its going to turn cloudy through the night. The outbreaks of rain will reach Northern Ireland, parts of southern scotland, too. But to the north, it will stay clear and chilly. So northern scotland, only around five degrees underneath the clear skies. Further south, its closer to about 8 10 celsius, and of course, weve got that rain, too. So lets have a look at the forecast for thursday mild south westerlies, that rain continues to make its journey northward, so quite a soggy picture here in scotland. 0ut towards the west, weve got showers, and given some lengthy spells of sunshine, which are just about possible across eastern england, east anglia and the south east, well, temperatures here could reach 16 or even 17 degrees celsius. And then through tomorrow evening, its a case of hit and miss showers across england and wales, but more wet and more, i think, substantial rain there for Northern Ireland and also scotland. That takes us into friday. As this low pressure pulls away towards the east, on its western flank here, we have winds coming in from the norwegian sea. So its slightly colder air. If you look at the arrows, blowing in from the north, so that cooler air sliding across the uk, the temperatures will take a bit of a dip. Single figures, i think, typically for for scotland, for the north of england, but still relatively mild in east anglia 1a. And i think therell be some showers around too, but also some decent spells of sunshine. And then friday night into saturday, its going to be pretty cold. A frost will develop, and i suspect in some spots out of town, temperatures could be as low as 4 Celsius Early On saturday morning. Thats not going to last very long. That sun is strong now this time of the year. Heres the outlook, then from thursday onwards its a bit of a mixed bag. Rain at times, a bit of sunshine, but actually staying relatively mild for most of us. Bye bye. Today at ten rishi sunak says he wont return millions of pounds from a tory donor accused of racism.
