We are in regular contact with the haitian authorities, and we will continue to work with them and our partners the Haitian Police are not responded to the requests for information. The u. S. Ordered all nonemergency staff to leave haiti and warned all americans should leave citing the increase in violence and the risk of kidnapping. It was the dire need in haiti and the hope that the Gang Recruitment could be stopped that compelled alex to live and work there over the last few years.

The Foreign Minister announcing this as the political issues deepen. Carl livera has been in court for the first time in the case against the former president. He was released on bond without a formal plea. The former Business Partner of hunter biden has been invited to speak with the committee. The white house is slamming what they are calling an evidencefree goose chase. Reporter House Republicans are turning up the heat on hunter biden. The House Oversight committee had a deposition with devin archer. He served on the board of the Ukrainian Energy company with biden. They thought he could reveal Key Information about President Biden and if he was involved in his sons foreign Business Deals that as link that the white house has denied and republicans have yet to establish. One of the things republicans were particularly interested in was if joe biden spoke to hunters Business Partners. Dan goldman confirmed that hunter biden did put joe biden on speakerphone around 20 times in the presence of his Business Partners, but goldman was adamant no business was discussed and the conversations were casual. Theres still no connection of any of Hunter Bidens Business Dealings with President Biden. Hunter may have put his father on the phone with any number of different people, and they never once spoke about any Business Dealings. As he described it, it was a casual conversation. Reporter hunter was said to be selling the elusion of his father, but never linked him to the Business Deals. The same source said archer testified there were no knowledge of a bribery scheme. Republicans feel vindicated after the testimony and the Speakerphone Calls and a dinner where joe biden was present is proof that the president was intimately involved than was previously known saying biden lied to the american people, and they are vowing to continue to dig into the issue. In fact, a trio of chairman also launching a probe on the same day, looking into the department of justices Employee Deal involving hunter biden, and they want documents, a briefing, and a clear sign they are not letting up on the probes any time soon. Cnn, capitol hill. Two u. S. Officials telling cnn President Biden had decided to keep the headquarters of the u. S. Space command in colorado, reversing the decision by President Trump to move it to alabama. Officials said the air force secretary recommended to Biden The Headquarters be moved to alabama, but we are told mr. Biden followed the advice of the head of the Space Command saying the headquarters will be operational in august, and moving it could jeopardize the readiness. All of the Supreme Court judges in israel will take part in the hearing challenging a controversial overhaul law. The law would strip the court of the power to declare decisions unreasonable. More from tel aviv. This is presumably to make the decision the court has to make as credible as possible . Reporter it shows, max, the gravity of which the Supreme Court views the decision. Its the first time the 15 judges from the Supreme Court will hear the petitions against it. Theres eight petitions calling for the same thing, basically for the Supreme Court to strike down the reasonableness bill. There was a bill in the past where all of the justices got together around 1970. That was a much smaller number of judges at the time. Its the first time all 15 are getting together. As i say, it shows the gravity of the situation. We know when the hearing is due to begin, september 12th. What we dont know is what decision it is going to make or how long it is going to take to make the decision. The other thing we dont know, how the government will respond. You will recall that wolf blitzer interviewed netanyahu last week, and he did not say if they would abide by the Supreme Court ruling that would strike down the reasonableness bill. Its worth noting the Supreme Court has never struck down one of the basic laws, the closest they have to a constitution. Netanyahu was noncommittal in the interview and yesterday when asked the same question by nbc. His party put out an ominous statement saying the governments in israel have always been careful to respect the ruling of the court, and the court has always been respectful of the rules of law. Adding any deviation from one of the principles could cause damage to the democracy. These days needing calmness, dialogue, and responsibility. Again, noncommittal. The opposition seeing it as a shot at the Supreme Court to make them think carefully before looking to potentially strike down the reasonableness bill. As we say, for now the protests continue, and the Opposition Leader demanded a freeze to any judicial Overhaul Bills as a precondition to reengage with the government to negotiate a compromise. All eyes very much on the september hearing. September12th it starts. We dont know how long it will take to make a ruling, and we dont know what the rule willing be. Theres a lot hanging on it. Elliott in tel aviv, thank you. Thousands of people are waiting to get back the remnants of the Storm Weakening over china.
