Excuse me so it is a symbolic thing for the protesters theyre here to show that one year on their movement is alive and kicking quite literally very often. And the police in fact they are ready to ready to move in at this gathering to try and disperse them and people you can see people are here theyre. Very passionate about. Their very excuse me theyre very passionate about their course still so far we know that more than 40 people have been detained because of the violence and the protests they have been they have been flaring up all across paris. But whats the general feeling about the ongoing protests well according to the latest poll more than half of those surveyed still support the yellow bus well 63 percent say they dont want the rallies to begin in earnest again Charlotte Toobin skee looks back now about 12 months of protests. From this once revolutionary now a catalyst for a few years populist movements a country where protest is in the blood and over the last year a nation defenseless against the yellow vests paris landmarks of triumph are left defaced and its iconic streets smashed and looted is it left the most jaded well shocked. My corner had come to power with his only deal of a french revolution it was one of reform he would not to fall on his sword as others before him by not giving in to protest movements but even he was forced into a treat the primed carbon tax hike was abandoned he opened a state purse to boost low income households mark or even he said he was there kindred spirit. If being the yellow best means being in favor of higher salaries and the more Effective Parliament than i am. Yellow. But for many yellow vests those promises were empty. At 1st mccrone didnt the way they were in the promises and that he backtracked there was a tax on this but not to the company had the resources to offer it also promised 100 years extra for people a minimum wage that in the end realized it was only for those on Social Security the anger continued to spill out onto the streets while some yellow vests were caught up in the violence for the most part to protest his argue their movement had been infiltrated by extremists. Its the radicals who go out for violence its an adrenaline kicks in that makes them feel good i suppose but there are also people who become violent because they are being attacked by tear gas and police baton. Discouraged theyve tried to discredit the movement by showing images of burning trash cans and cars and also to make sure that the rest of the population dont join the movement they go to the police dont understand anything the government tells them money but instead of marching with us they hear the protestors what the violence made a big impression on me the police against our guys i have been to every protest in paris and i saw things i should never have seen people were hit in the back well for the forces of peace and order they have been left scarred by the pilots there was a police car we had been this image of protesters and that type of fire inside it. There the french policeman were very very close to use their weapons to get out there was also the out of the 3 or there was a charge of Police Officer so there are they were exhausted and there were there was a concert out from the money as a protest of. We almost got one member. And according to this police union the problems were compounded from the very top. It was a mess. It was a mess. We had but. We had but the ship that was logged off of the fact. But leadership in the program city meanwhile for leticia to found the struggle continues but shes also where the weekly protests may have lost some of their English Impact so how will the universe movement adapt in the future to change the system she says you need to be inside to decide it was when i decided to join the local team because if we can find the problem from the outside we should do to the inside i also invited the other young leicester activists with similar we used to do the same if they become a counsellor or a deputy they will be inside the system and when we brought in change it. What ever your view on the on the Yellow Vest Movement one thing is indisputable theyve had a profound effect on france over the last year now could be a Pivotal Moment to see if they will continue to burn a torch under the Current Administration this weekend we may find out charlotte r. T. Paris.

A conservative which have organized who did.

A former Us Ambassador to ukraine whos a key witness in the trump impeachment inquiry has said she has no evidence that the president engaged in criminal activity in ukraine memory of h. Wells question during the 2nd open impeachment hearings. Do you have any information regarding the president and i did states excepting any groups. Now you have any information regarding any criminal activity that the president of the United States has been involved with at all. Now. Kaleb up annoyed reports there could be some impeachment fatigue audience numbers flying in comparison to earlier from scandals. As impeachment inquiry hearings against donald trump continue on capitol hill the new star witness is marine yvonne of it and she is a former u. S. Ambassador to ukraine who was removed from her post 6 months ago now donald trump definitely does not hold her in high esteem thats what he actually tweeted during her testimony every women over no bitch when turned bad she started off in somalia how did that go then fast forward to ukraine with a new ukrainian president spoke on favorably about her in my 2nd phone call with him it is a u. S. President s absolute right to appoint ambassador has now she testified that she was not part of the biden family scandal regarding natural gas in ukraine and furthermore she was not part of any effort to leak information from ukraine during the 2016 election furthermore she testifies that donald trump is intimidating her and that hes responsible for all the wrongdoing and so is Vladimir Putin well i mean president putin must have been aware that there were concerns in the u. S. About russian meddling in the 2016 elections and what the potential was for russian meddling in the future so you know classic for an Intelligence Officer to try to throw off the scent and you know create an alternative narrative that maybe might get picked up and get some credence yes fitting in the name of the russian president is what you do if you want to catch a headline and the media is keeping up the hype the calm before the impeachment storm washington is bracing for a blockbuster day washington on edge all day for this 2nd day of impeachment hearings it was a story day on capitol hill with the 1st public impeachment hearing of president tonight history of the hill his House Democrats make their case against president an attempt to remove the president of the United States from office now you would think that that would be front had line news but is the u. S. The public really interested not too much 13000000 americans watched the 1st round of testimony according to the nielsen ratings now thats one in 20 certainly sounds like a lot but compare that to when former f. B. I. Director James Coleman got up to testify about how he was fired by donald trump 20000000 americans watch that thats roughly the same number as tuned in when Brett Kavanaugh was being confirmed as a Supreme Court justice amid Sexual Assault allegations you would expect americans to be glued to their t. V. Screens now there is an actual impeachment inquiry open after all articles of impeachment could be drawn up the senate could be faced with the choice of whether or not to convene an impeachment trial and the stakes are significantly higher but the American Public seems far less interested i wonder how Many Americans know or even care about the key witnesses you never heard of the master youve been a bitch have you ever heard of george cant. Are you watching the trumpet pietschmann inquiry hearings on t. V. Does it interest you at all. Why do you think fewer americans are turning in to watch the impeachment because its its a fluke easy yeah sure its fake you know when they get to 3 years and shes coming to power if you like and one can fire you for the way its going on and nothing you have that this is a big colossal waste of time. Period in which the bread here it was more so like you know sensitive to the public and this one is just everybodys either this or theyre so yes it seems that the donald trump is a bad guy a show has been airing from capitol hill for a few seasons already but americans are now yawning and saying havent we seen this episode before. Artsy new york where legal media analyst Jennifer Dunn musters sais that the drop in interest actually comes in handy for us democrats the American Public i think the public in general is getting bored with some of the narratives that have been pushed. Against donald trump have been shown to either be completely false or unfounded in facts but there are some important things that have come out one of those i think is that is the fact that well one for one thing she didnt have any firsthand knowledge of what this is about and she wasnt even in her post for several months and so the fact that she was there was just to showcase her as somebody who could say things that would maybe paint on a trumpet a light i think a lot of this has really been planned i mean after the you know these hearings started out with 45 minutes of the democrats of adam schiff and the democratic attorney being able to question her now again when we hear these questions what is this is just praising her and talking about her heroic life story and her parents after that theyre supposed to be there is theoretically generally a 5 minute recess or a break which turned into 3040 minutes and even if you were as it were turned in at the outset would have just tuned our become bored with that and but what the democrats in the house have done is completely turn it on and turn it on its head they think the public is dumb they think the American People are dumb and so they just keep saying these things theyre making up their own elements of legal facts that are absolutely already solidified within the american justice system. Chief Mark Zuckerberg has taken a chinese social media video sharing platform to talk whos right group could soon overshadow his brainchild zuckerberg portrayed the rival as nothing less than a threat to democracy roccos d. Of takes a look at what might be behind the most of the. Social media markets like good nothing else with its called petition the difference is who could doesnt come out and say that pepsi is for nazis and b. M. W. Doesnt come out and call most c ds satan worshippers theyre a little more with the would grown up face book however says its called petition is a threat to democracy went to the back to get to school knuckle he is doing it close. Courses in the. Course. Has something to do. And i see 3 major threats and until recently the internet almost every country outside of china has been defined by american platforms with strong Free Expression values but there is no guarantee that these values will went out. A decade ago almost all of the major internet platforms were american today 6 of the top 10 are chinese. And were beginning to see this in social media 2 1st things 1st your new dads wondering how exactly a lip sinking app threatens the more crecy but just think about it a little longer. Another has changed it still doesnt make any sense so why would he say this. Now it does make sense facebook is eating dust in 2016 zuckerberg tried to buy musical daughter l. Y. The predecessor of take stock talks collapsed facebook walked away then the chinese borders and take stock exploded leaving facebook envious of the numbers that were being pulled in so as would any businessman zuckerberg smears it why are Services Like whats up are used by protesters and activists everywhere due to strong encryption privacy protections on tick tock the chinese are growing quickly around the world mentions of these same protests are censored even here in the u. S. Is that the internet that we want. First off Mr Zuckerberg protestors in hong kong a using telegram to coordinate which is a russian app just to have fired before you Say Something stupid again but serious accusations could it be could take talk really be censoring lip sinking in hong kong the Chinese Government does not request the ticktock tons of content and would not have jurisdiction regardless and stick stock does not operate there to be clear we do not remove videos based on the presence of hong kong process content in try to but try to smear it so now zuckerberg trying to copy it and has facebook has launched a virtual kloden of take stock. Now that weve established whats what we can ask ourselves if theres any cause left that zuckerberg wont use to get his hands on more money i dont know if he knows i mean do you think he knows what it looks like to everyone outs the c. E. O. Of facebook complaining about censorship or Mr Zuckerberg i will say there are a great many. Americans who i think are deeply concerned that facebook and other Tech Companies are engaged in a pervasive pattern of bias and political censorship in may of 2016 gizmodo reported that facebook and purposefully and routinely suppressed conservative stories from trending new facebook that is purged itself of conservative voices banned the naming of a trump impeachment whistle blowing the sold out its community to the highest bidder information that was used by dictators to clamp down on opposition and he tells us the chinese lip sinking op is a threat to democracy. For some of europes biggest sporting nations its a crunch weekend of football places are up for grabs at the euro 2020 finals 2 countries have already booked their spots are belgium and russia but they will have to see who finishes 1st in their group in just over half an hours time and just to break down for most nations this weekend will be their penultimate qualifying run while others are already done to their final fixture theres 10 groups in total with teams finishing 1st and 2nd qualifying automatically for next summers showpiece belgium other number one ranked side in the world currently are in sin petersburg while of next years host cities by the way aiming to extend their Perfect Group record or to shift he spoke to me earlier from the stadium. Well it is an interesting match to watch certainly because some people say that this match is real largely irrelevant since both russia and belgium have already qualified for next summer as you are 2020 championship but make no mistake about it both teams are looking to field their strongest lineups here in St Petersburg at. The stadium which was known as the same petersburg arena during the world cup while the. Brings back a lot of good memories i would say particularly maybe for the belgium fans which have flocked here and numbers because it was here that belgium won the bronze medal at the world cup last year which was considered a very big result for a better martinez aside now obviously this stadium is a pretty one it looks like a u. F. O. Which has landed now we spoke to several former Russian National team players over the last couple of days and here are their thoughts on what we can expect on this game what they should use for both teams have already achieved their main goals are to us now they will compete to finish top of the group i expect the game to be uncompromising in the fashion might be relaxed but they need to understand that they are playing in some of the strongest teams in the world so they need to work cards away. Just want to wish our guys play well for the fans i dont want to make predictions well see what happens so everyone is pretty careful about those predictions well see how the game pounds out but lets not forget this is the last home game for russia in the safety of St Petersburg and its not a coincidence at all because it will be here next summer that 4 games of the euro 2020 championship will be held now today i had an opportunity to speak with. Who was the head of the Organization Committee for the world cup now hes automatically transferred to the organization 2020 and he was very proud that euros will be taking part here in this Northern Capital of course of just over. Of the good. For. The we know the orders will know how to push for it. In the very. First. That is promising to be a really good game russia has to win. And by a margin of more than 3 goals to claim the top spot in this group given the recent run of results particularly a 4 nil win against scotland at home you know this not something completely impossible if you ask if the found so well see well be here and well be following the game and well bring you the update as soon as we hear the final whistle here in St Petersburg.
