The platform to save the world in trouble. Im told me a lot of glad to have you with us u. S. President donald trump is preparing to name the woman who he wants to sit on the Supreme Court media reports say he will nominate Amy Connie Barrett to fill that seat the conservative Appeals Court judge was already seen as a key contender for the previous 2 appointments to the countrys top court she will replace Ruth Bader Ginsburg who died last week. At 48. 00 a judge Amy Conley Barrett could shape the Supreme Court for many decades to come 3 years ago trump appointed the staunch conservative to the federal court of appeals in chicago she has indicated support for gun rights trumps immigration policies and restrictions on abortion. And l g b t rights group called her quote an absolute threat feminists fear she may move to restrict abortion rights in 2013 as a professor at the university of notre dame she was quoted as saying life begins at conception Senate Democrats grilled her on her religious views during the 27000 Appeals Court confirmation hearings and it california senator Dianne Feinstein was even accused of anticatholic bigotry i think york case professor when you read your speeches. The conclusion one draws is that the dog lives loudly within you barrett has said repeatedly that her faith would not interfere with her judicial decisions if barrett is confirmed before election day on november 3rd one of the 1st case this in front of her will be about the fate of the Affordable Care act known as obamacare trump wants to invalidate the law which provides health care to millions of americans. For more i am now joined by the Washington Bureau chief in s. Paul going to tell us about amy Callie Barrett and what effect appointment would have on the Supreme Court. Well trump could hardly have found a more of a polar opposite to lave Justice Ginsberg a pioneering champion of women and leader of the liberal wing of the court well however the 48 year old Amy Coney Barrett said she is a faithful catholic and critics fear that she would not only invalidate the Affordable Care act and take Health Care Away from millions of people but also undermine a womans reproductive freedom and she is an outspoken prolife supporter ok so if trump does go ahead and nominate how certain is this confirmation. Well that is interesting because some white house officials warry the judge bearing in mind galvanize not just democrats and but also the kind of suburban women and independent voters 3 who have who would have favored. More mainstream pick well however barrett has been fairly vetted by conservative groups and unless there is something lurking we dont really know about the Republican Senate will appoint her as the successor of late r. P. G. As they only need a simple majority to so right now all the indications say that they have the. Only 2 republicans objecting to the nomination happening so close to the election day on november 3rd and this nomination is controversial the main reason being the timing it comes just weeks ahead of the november 3rd election so how is this playing into trumps reelection strategy. Well he President Trump gets through mine to conservatives why its important to keep him and him in office he can nominate judges to the bench and as we see at this very day Supreme Court justices. We also have to keep in mind told me if he gets reelected it is possible that he could at least one more judge in the next 4 years and that would shift the highest court in the country complete control of conservatives and would have major implications for the everyday life here in the United States ok and i suppose thanks for bringing us up to speed in a spall in washington d. C. Lets take a look now at some other stories making news around the world.

Now on to a shiny new star of social media not him but someone whos already a household name for his adventures on the small screen at the age of 94. 00 wildlife documentary legend David Attenborough is not instagram sensation Anthony Howard is until now it is yet to talk to us about a week in which algebra howard said and your records are probably you can actually tell us more about this so i would add it to the fastest man to a 1000000 followers mary brought Jennifer Aniston the friends stars record which she held at 5060 minutes she went on to instagram and had a 1000000 followers out of that amount of time so they would launch his account on thursday and just 4 hours and 44 minutes later he had a 1000000 followers and a new record just like the man himself his instagram is not slowing down either now 2 days later hes passed 4000000 followers now clearly that the 94 year old is not the man you associate the typical candidate for social media we think actors singers performers and anyone else who might be in danger of being described as work but off the 60 years this man bringing the wonders of the planet into well and to our lounge room his stock has not dimmed and nor his ability to attract across all demographics. He was of course given a rock stars welcome at glastonbury on the last year and we had a glimpse of how he was reaching a younger audience now 4000000 people 2 days later he is every inch the social media star as he is a t. V. Legend so what he posted is going to Netflix Documentary hes a storyteller and a salesman is going to Netflix Documentary coming out next month and a life on our planet now the film will see him reflect on his career but also what hes witnessing and thats what he says that the decline of the planets environmental and bio diversity which he is of the 1st 10 his 1st post says citing our planet is now a communications challenge now this is the symmetry he wants to reach a younger audience and he says its a communications challenge so hes going to take instagram. Hes open to the count thats one thing right but its flooded by people who are who love him respect him hes a knight but you can well ask is it not a 4 year old going to cut through an instagram and be able to to reach this audience but as much as social media is chinas everything its changed nothing because the story is still king and the many things that this man has done achieve thing witnessed in his life he is one thing if nothing else and that is a must the full story teller and the story he thinks most important the moment is the one about the planet and is he being posting any clues about his new show. A nice bit of symmetry here is that the kensington royal account from Prince William posted a picture of 2 dick chairs 2 directorial chairs sitting together with the name said the david on the back and Prince William on the other a collaboration coming up i think a t. V. Royal if you like theres the picture out there and so david next to him exciting things to come from so David Attenborough a treasure that just keeps on giving now on Instagram Tommy super looked up from a reporter and you know how many thanks.
