Watching are to International Coming to a line from the russian capital where its just turned 3 pm welcome to the Program Hundreds have gathered in northern mexico for the 1st funerals of an American Family brutally slaughtered by a drug cartel earlier this week was later revealed they were killed by weapons that originated in the u. S. And its kill and now reports theres little to restrict the flow of arms over the border. 9 americans dead 3 women and 6 children hit by mexican drug lords a 13 year old boy who walked 23 miles to get help for the others and now us politicians are willing to run through walls to serve up justice it seems this is the time for mexico with the help of the United States to wage war on the drug cartels and wipe them off the face of the earth we merely a way to call from your great new president the Mexican Government cant protect americans inside of mexico but america may have to take matters into our own hands this is only 50 miles away from our southern border we can certainly defend american citizens inside of mexico with mexico into mexico was not willing or able to do so is the senator suggesting that the United States send authorities or perhaps even troops into sovereign mexico now the perpetrators of this heinous crime may be subject to a high profile murder trial but are we overlooking something this was a mormon family slaughtered with 223 remington rifles made in america over 200000 firearms are smuggled from the usa to mexico every year this comes at horrific cost to society south of the border and 28000. 00 alone the Mexican Police opened 33000. 00 different homicide investigations at a higher rate of homicide than conflict at syria mexican law makes it near impossible for civilians to legally purchase guns in fact there is only one store in mexico that actually sells firearms but yet the mexican drug cartels continue to get their hands on high tech weaponry because this isnt the weapons that are right in the United States of america because they arent in the United States ended up recording them mexico or the lowest one though that thats very lucky or in there if the United States. Or they went their order would be in in lima. The axes are arm or leg some the structure on the snow arm and also on the session or harm in concert or prick no or who will of course were going to be by its a hypocrisy in that sense the office of Government Accountability in the United States is documented that 70 percent of the weapons seized by the Mexican Police originated in the United States mexican leaders have long urged the usa to crack down on the flow of weapons into their country however attempts to do so so far have failed for decades heres the thing mexico is certainly dangerous or at least thats the message that donald trump rang out pretty loudly on the campaign trail in 2016 nearly 180000 Illegal Immigrants with criminal records ordered deported from our country are tonight roaming free to threaten peaceful citizens when mexico sends his people to not sending their best to sending people that have lots of problems at their bringing those problems with us. Theyre bringing drugs theyre bringing crime drugs like heroin and cocaine are flowing over the Mexican Border into the United States however the gangs that are executing people resisting Law Enforcement and transporting those drugs are armed with guns that originally flowed in the opposite direction the United States has to you know with its diction problem with this problem of consumption not just like being on the supply side of the things but also on that man and treating these as a Public Health issue would be a good idea to start with its also the sales of arms not just like benefiting those businesses that also benefit the economy of the United States and cup orating with next providing information to do financially halogens in a more appropriate way and really participating in an m.

President mccrone of france says that the once robust Nato Alliance is in terminal decline and is becoming brain dead although his comments have been dismissed by other members. Frances president the french president used rather drastic words to express his views this is not how i see the state of corporation with nato i dont think that such a sweeping judgment is appropriate made to ease in our interest its all Security Alliance obviously we have to take our destiny in our own hands but the Transatlantic Partnership is absolutely indispensable i agree with the transfer market need to be strong. United States North America and europe we do more together than theyre done for decades and we have implemented the strongest reinforcement so collective defense since the end of the cold war micron made the remarks in an interview with the u. K. Is a columnist magazine the french president also cast doubt on the reliability of natos article 5 which requires Member States to come to one anothers defense if attacked he suggested that the deterrent has been undermined by washingtons faltering commitment and also said that europe needs to assert itself as a geo political power. Europe is now dealing for the 1st time with an american president who doesnt share our idea of the european project if we dont wake up theres a considerable risk that in the long run we would disappear geopolitically or at least that we will no longer be in control of our own destiny i believe that very deeply writer and broadcaster Jonathan Pryor told us that the french leader wants to see a more independent europe but the president called seem to be concerned about 2 particular was both the disengagement of the United States under donald trump who has made it clear that he would like europe to look after itself militarily much more than is the case the president think it was a little premature in the sense to certainly call. Nato braindead but it does need to work out exactly what its for these days it was founded 40 years ago in principle to oppose what was perceived at the time a communist threat from the east but of course thats no longer the case and its operations have spread into other parts of the world but the does need really to be serious thinking about what is nato for. Germany has been facing widespread demonstrations from its farmers theyve been disrupting transport routes using tractors to block traffic it comes as the industry feels its being unfairly blamed for Climate Change or having to bend to berlins bold moves to become Carbon Neutral parties events or steps us has more. German farmers are furious but this is not a united front 2 camps are taking aim to the government over its environmental rules for very Different Reasons although one corner thousands of farmers causing gridlock in several major cities over environmental measures which they say are crippling their life the biggest one in bonn to the german argued Culture Ministry were a 10 kilometer convoy brought the city to a halt. A looming ban on the controversial weed killer and tighter controls on slurry and fertilizer are just some of the measures that farmers say will force them out of business germanys lost 16 percent of its farms between the years of 2007 and 2017 a trend that the germans Farmers Association says is reflected across western europe farmers see the had enough of being labelled as the bad guys in the growing Climate Change movement we are not satisfied with the Agricultural Policy which is being shaped its a policy thats not based on facts what new requirements are being issued all the time at a rate we simply cannot keep up with we have no chance to adjust our farms in time with the wish list from different n. G. O. S is getting longer and we are getting fed up with the fact that weve being made responsible for every dead insects and so on top seeded them we are fed up with this pharma bashing campaign. We simply want to show that were fed up with being scapegoated for everything is negative we are to blame for Climate Change for air Water Pollution you cant go on like this but on the other corner are the German Farmers are choosing the government all fail. The environment and putting them out of business if you want one the federal government to rethink its crime and goals rather than take further action to reduce c o 2 emissions instead of roadblocks they try taking the legal route the 1st time the government had been taken to court for failing to protect the environment. He has become clear that climate protection is prosecutable we can end up in coolant that is how i see it i believe that we should move forward with a positive attitude and i think more action must be taken now. Germanys plan was to cut 40 percent of Greenhouse Gas emissions by 2020 and compared with those in 1990 but it has fallen short it only reduced 31 percent but a court in berlin found that the targets were not legally binding on their target the farmers or digging in on both sides we want to be perceived as people who produce Healthy Products in harmony with nature and not as the biggest destroyer of nature in germany that more needs to be done so the government recognizes that it must act now they may be opposites over the impact and solutions of Climate Change but theres one thing that they do agree on but burleson is failing them both federal law suits us. Despite a history of animosity between north and south korea people in the south believe they would side with north korea in the event of a conflict with japan thats a result of a survey by a think tank and so im not half of those asked said they would back north korea even though there was an option to stay neutral only 15 percent say they would side with tokyo this despite continuous reminders by western allies of the threat posed by north korea. North koreas 6 or 6 test of a Nuclear Device and its missile launches are a threat not only to the people of south korea but. The people all across our globe it has never been more important to be working closely together given the threat of north korea north korea has conducted 10 missile tests this year 2 of them involved solid fuel missiles which the north can launch with less warning we saw soldiers preparing patriot missiles to shoot down incoming Ballistic Missiles from north korea the most immediate threat tonight from north korea is far more conventional they could fire on south korea the survey also comes as relations between south korea and japan are seeing another low with disputes resurfacing over longstanding controversies back in 1910 japan turned korea into a colony and fought hard against its Independence Movement back then japan controlled almost every aspect of life on the peninsula during the 2nd world war japan drew heavily on korea hundreds of thousands of koreans were forced to work in japan where conditions were so bad its estimated that over 60000 died because of it women from korea were also used as sex slaves by japanese soldiers many koreans believe the treaty signed between the 2 countries in 1965 didnt amend the wrongs that were done meanwhile human rights attorney eric 0 can believe both japan and the u. S. Often dark picture of north south relations to fit their own political agenda. These outside influences japan in the United States for their own political purposes i think they exaggerate the desire of the North Koreans to attack south korea and i think that this will begin to bear out when these types of surveys and discussions take place and when the mood in ministrations finally i hope has the ability and the the guts frankly to do what they say they want to do and that is in. Peace and settle the korean war with North Koreans and so i think japan will continue to stay on these flames until the South Koreans really put into that by formalizing relations and taking further serious steps toward peace. Us democrats have released 300. 00 pages of testimony from the countrys top diplomat in ukraine and it bill taylor claims there was an improper quid pro quo arrangement with key of he says the release of hundreds of millions of dollars of Financial Aid was dependent upon ukraine launching a corruption investigation into trumps potential political rival joe biden some media say its a clear sign of president toms guilt this is a deeply credible knowledgeable person and he allegedly realizes that there is a quid pro quo if testimony has been one of the most important for democrats who say it provides the clearest explanation for what President Trump and its allies were demanding at the time this was all going down he texted are we now saying that Security Assistance a white house meeting are conditioned on investigations conditioned we talk about quid pro quo condition is a key word there that is what prosecutors call a head shot it is right on point. Republicans have pushed back against bill taylors account though they say that despite the ambassadors claims he actually had no 1st hand knowledge of the alleged arrangement. As i understand from one of the maybe the article in the New York Times giuliani was interested in getting some information on Vice President biden he says hes going to one client and hes useful to the client and then its your inference that mr giulianis goal would be the president s goal yes and your source is the New York Times yes so do you have any other source that the Prison School in making this week where as was anything other than New York Times i havent talked to the president i have no other information from what the president was thinking the muddied interest the george soros and other people can arrange for a diplomat like taylor to leave whatever position here to get a very cushy lifestyle who knows what this guy has been promised who knows what his motivations actually may be but hes betrayed so far show a horrible judgment coming out say one thing apparently on the strength that he read something in the New York Times he didnt like the New York Times reporting sadly in the last 20 years has become scurrilous there are numerous examples of New York Times stories that were puffed up beyond all measure i mean this is really just beyond silly. Taylor also claims that discussions on Financial Aid to ukraine were delayed because they trumpet ministration was distracted by attempts to buy greenland. But do you deduce from that thats our line is funston with the russians but all of these agencies that support this come gets a meeting with the president to discuss it it turns out that the terminal that those principles as we call them were on different trips to different times i think this was also the time of the greenland question about perches in greenland which to come to a lot of energy in the end i see ok thats disturbing for a whole different reason this just tells you how far out of the loop taylor actually was we could afford to do multiple things at the same time and to suggest with a straight face that the trouble house could not have could not consider his in treaty because they were too busy figuring out how to buy greenland is just a telegraph that this guy is you know as john mccain referred to people hes a whack a bird is this crazy thats not isnt just simply not the case. Still to come the stress levels are up in the u. S. With people almost as worried about next years president ial election as they are about terrorism details after the break. Most people think just stand out in this business you need to be the 1st one on top of the story or the person with the loudest voice of the biggest race in truth to stand the News Business you just need as the right questions and the right answers. Question. Nobody wants to look at the wildfires and say the obvious number one the taxes are being misused theyre not being adequately distributed to where they are needed on the infrastructure side because theres a government failure number 2 Climate Change regardless of whether you believe its happening or not the damage that is going to be applied to your pocketbook that you will pay for Climate Change whether you believe it or not you know its still the price is still there. Welcome back a new poll in the us suggest the majority of adults there are getting stressed over the upcoming president ial election in fact it worries people almost as much as terrorism and just as much as Climate Change and the main reason behind the concern is believed to be the media blowing things out of proportion because about nearly 40 percent say they have now taken steps to reduce their news consumption. At the same time were seeing democracy under threat were seeing state actors try to meddle in us elections this is bad for democracy they want to disrupt our democracy they want to disrupt our our system they want to cause doubt in the r. C. Its true sions and our and our leadership donald trump circus has ruined our country and our country is all through is like nothing we have ever confronted before as a nation now we can binge watch the end of america with increased attention i think that news media particularly in the United States has given. The political body i guess youd say i dont think that that is that notable a certain level of stress around election time can prompt action every. One knows for sure there is going to be an election and elections absolutely have consequences no matter where you live and so if it prompts people to take action Founding Fathers of the United States would say that might be a good thing and that some stress that leads to action in terms of voting would be a good thing and so sometimes a little bit of stress around an election time that leads to action might be a productive thing according to the poll Many Americans feel the country is at its lowest point in history they report mixed feelings about the countrys future with less than 40 percent believing the u. S. Is only passed to being stronger. Dr gina again says americans are now beginning to understand that the media is skewed in the way it presents information. Theres definitely a disproportionate negative coverage of politics in the United States media theres no question of that i think the figure is the high ninetys percentage of coverage in us media is negative and so that isnt surprising that that would leave some level of cynicism or negativity with the electorate and some level of stress absolutely and as so you know the media does bear some responsibility on the way that they present the news is good news on that is that americans are very aware of this in ways they didnt used to be americans understand that the media is very skewed and that more than 90 percent of the media in the United States presents the negative side of it so americans kind of know to look for the positive and thats the good side thats the good news if you will. Now for some world news in brief this friday a hospital run by Doctors Without Borders has been partially destroyed in yemen as have been reported but all medical activities have been suspended the Charity Claims the damage was the result of an aerial attack Saudi Led Coalition has already blamed to the rebels for the attack saying they fired 4 Ballistic Missiles rob housman orchestrating air strikes against the militants in yemen since 2015.

Moscow says its ready for further talks on Nuclear Disarmament but is waiting for the us to respond to it suggestions from russias foreign minister speaking at a key forum on nonproliferation in moscow over 40 countries are expected to take part but not america despite being invited various National Reports seems that all the participants all the speakers i heard a good we on the importance of a sincere and productive dialogue between the states in order to find Common Ground but they all confirm there is a lack of such discussion hand they disagree on who is to blame for that russia point america saying that we joined from the i. M. F. Treaty after rejecting wide my putins offer to suspend deployment of missiles in europe with the new start treaty that expire is next february now in danger and following numerous violations of nonproliferation treaty americas behavior threatens Global Security here is said again lover of russias foreign minister speaking about that. The problems surrounding the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction require special dialogue and we are ready for it however when the main partner here in the United States doesnt give us a comprehensible reaction to anything we suggest its hard to try and act alone we constantly remind the us of our numerous suggestions and they know it all ready as well as other leading countries some have been complaining that todays discussion is not quite balanced since official american representatives are not here although they have been invited and basically they have rejected this invitation so i talked about americas role with un high representative happy or not you have to take it for granted when they tell me that they still share the global object to fulfill a new world free of Nuclear Weapons i have to take it for granted i think its all very important in the. We keep you know. With the United States like very much like. A kilo contact with the the rest of the p. 5 the particular china diplomat attends also taken part in todays hot debates and he was almost attacked with accusations that an important player when we speak about Global Security especially given that one of the biggest threats is coming from south asia rejects the dollar we think u. S. China has never let me review chinas never rejected the socalled meaningful dialogue with anybody in the u. S. Has made this so much noise about having this financial negotiations but let me make it clear so fun to know the u. S. Has never told as what exactly they want to talk about in this trilateral dialogue todays gathering here in most ways a very good chance for participants to prepare for next year is meeting to make it more productive and more effective. Thats our global news wrap up for now thanks for tuning in wherever you may be. In my i phone i have a 1000 points of capability of that of the computers we had on board the spacecraft at that time i mean its ridiculous that in my back pocket i have much much more capability then we had to do the entire apollo program. Seemed wrong all wrong just dont call. Me. Yet to see a pilot these days become educated and gain from it equals betrayal. When something find themselves worlds apart when just to look for Common Ground. Public impeachment hearings Begin Next Week how worried should the president bay well take a look at that on this edition of politics. In the politicking on larry king the House Intelligence Committee will begin Holding Public impeachment hearings next week bringing lawmakers a step closer to the possible impeachment of President Trump how worried should he be about this as talk with someone who knows the impeachment process very well former u. S. Representative Elizabeth Holtzman a 4 time democratic congresswoman from new york she served as a member of the House Judiciary Committee that investigated the role of president nixon in the watergate scandal and voted to impeach him shes the author of the book the case for impeaching trump she joins me from new york elizabeth though. Were all just spinning wheels hes going to be impeached in the house and not convicted in the senate and everyone thinks that. Well you know something larry really nobody knows whats going to happen when we started the impeachment proceedings against Richard Nixon in october 1973 after the saturday night massacre we didnt know what a high crime and misdemeanor was there was no headcount in the House Judiciary Committee no headcount in the house no headcount in the senate we had no idea was there be enough votes whether it be an impeachable case or what was going to happen and as it turned out the the matter never even got to the house of representatives and much less to the senate because the president resigned the case was so strong and so fairly made then so professional he resigned but thats not good news so well never answer the question well we dont know whats going to happen here we still have 2 people whove been to henchmen of Rudy Giulianis one of whom is now whove been indicted for Campaign Finance violations who were active in ukraine one of them is now cooperating with the congress lets see we dont know whats going to happen we dont know about the tapes on. Saturday at the smoking gun tape nobody knew at the end what we would find so i think the most important thing is for the democrats and republicans who care about our country and our constitution to present the evidence to examine the evidence to give the public opportunity to kick the tires to scrutinize the credibility of the witnesses and then come to a conclusion about whats going to happen i think its premature to say that. There wont be he wont be removed listen 2 months ago everybody was saying the house would never move to impeach but look where we are now what do you make of embezzlers someone changing his testament. Well its probably smart thing for him
