And demands for Racial Justice protests in parts of europe with growing calls for controversial statues to be torn down. Now just hours before donald trump makes a big pitch to be reelected as u. S. President a court has paved the way for the publication of a tell all book on his time so far and office a judge has rejected trumps last ditch attempt to block the release by his former National Security adviser john bolton now in that book bolton alleges the president sort chinas help to win reelection a president from tweeted after that verdict he said bolton had been all washed up until he was given a chance at the white house despite the judges ruling trump said his. Former advisor had broken the law by including classified information in the book and he said bolton must pay a very big price for what hes done on lets get more now from mike hanna whos in washington d. C. Mike the president has been getting even more vocal about all this talk us through as well the judges reading. Indeed yes well the basis of the judges ruling was quite simple he said the horse had left the bomb hes referring to the fact that contents of bolton spoke of being widely published in the u. S. Media in recent days but judge in his decision finding that the government had not proved that release of the book would harm it the public would not be harmed basically hes arguing that the book is already out there and therefore theres no need for an emergency injunction but the judge as well was highly critical of john bolton saying his summation that bolton had gambled with National Security and had opened himself to civil and possibly criminal proceedings so the judge is very very strong on bolton but despite all of this the book is out there in a few days time the public can read in full the allegations made by john bolton against the presidency but President Trump himself as you mentioned is seeing this as a success he says this is a big court when in another tweet he goes on and says that referring to bolton he liked to drop bombs on people now we are going to drop bombs on him very clearly President Trump is intent on pushing charges against john bolton which is likely to happen in the weeks ahead or mike given that as you say and as the judge says a lot of the contents of that book were already in the Public Domain is the fallout here rather from the Justice Department wading into all of this at this very late stage. Well the Justice Department hasnt had a very good few weeks since the last 2 cases in the Supreme Court of the United States one in particular on the dreamers the immigrant case because they hadnt done their homework properly they was ruled out on administrative reasons then of course youve got a situation in this particular case where the judge made very clear that john bolton had walked away from the review process before it was finished the judge implied that if bolton the Justice Department had brought an injunction at that stage when bolton walked away and not meeting his a legal duty to go through a full review process and importantly before excerpts from the book at being published then the outcome may have been very different so the judge raising questions about the Justice Department and the fact that it was sort of late in bringing this emergency injunction when it could have done so weeks ago so harsh words for the Justice Department which as i said hasnt exactly a shot in in recent weeks my candidate for us with all the latest from washington d. C. Thank you very much mike well as weve been saying its an Election Year and trump is preparing for his 1st Campaign Rally since the current a Virus Outbreak oklahomas top court has ruled that the event intel site can go ahead in the coming hours despite the attempts to stop it because if is that it could western the pandemic and thats not the only controversy as rob reynolds reports.

Once. And. I think a large part of the president s reelection effort is going to be. The strategy could back fire brand the middle of a pandemic and this will be the 1st large event since weve shut down everything after this family and it turns out there is a significant outbreak. Among. I think thats really going to put into jeopardy the president s strategy its a volatile combination the history of massacre a bitterly divided nation on edge and a deadly virus spreading fast with a president poised to stir up the brew rob reynolds aljazeera. Donald trump is also my another control of the scene after his attorney general tried to fire a top federal prosecutor so hes investigated as a number of the president s associates Jeffrey Bannon is refusing to step down and says he will continue his walk.

Policy in ukraine and a case that added fuel to the calls for troops in peach meant they saw political influence not only to advance their own financial interests but to advance the political interests of at least one foreign official. These cases and an investigation into giuliani have concern to the trumpet ministration on friday night attorney general william announced berman was leaving his position saying that the president intends to nominate jay clayton the current chairman of the securities and Exchange Commission a lawyer with no experience as a prosecutor statement ending by thanking Jeffrey Berman describing him as stepping down after 2 and a half years of service their only problem is Jeffrey Berman says hes not going anywhere releasing his own statement i learned in a press release from the attorney general tonight that i was stepping down as United States attorney i have not resigned and have no intention of resigning my position the trumpet ministration has a growing reputation for forcing out anyone seen as disloyal in recent weeks the president has fired a number of agency watchdogs including the Inspector General of the Intelligence Community whose actions led to the impeachment inquiry but offered no explanation for attempting to replace berman a republican who once donated to Trumps Campaign democrats have accused barr of politicizing the department of justice and acting more like trumps personal lawyer barr.

Issued a release saying that mr berman step down and that was just clearly a lot mr berman has not resigned and this is on top of other countries mr barr as toby keith the lead in regard to the release of the mother report when he deliberately mis characterized it mr barr than asking much more like mr trump personal wire that he had than the head of the Justice Department it is understandable really to think of how republicans in the senate who are staying quiet through all of this would have reacted in the Obama Administration had eric holder suddenly fired a u. S. Attorney investigating people related to obama but here you have mr barr stepping in to stop investigations apparently that mr trump doesnt like primary among those under the treaty investigation of Rudolph Giuliani that ongoing in the Southern District of new york but thats not the only one there are many ongoing investigations there that all touch on President Trump and it seems that trump wants to do everything he can to stop.

Rejected president transmit to block the release of a book by former National Security adviser john bolton the judge says the book carries National Security concerns but he couldnt stop its publication. Powerful new york prosecutor Jeffrey Bauman is refusing to leave his job despite the u. S. Attorney general saying hed been fired and had been investigating this story see its President Trump. One of democratic republic of congos high profile politicians has been sentenced to 20 years in prison with hard labor for corruption a court and can shots are found to be talcum or hate guilty of embezzling more than 50 1000000. 00 from a Public Housing fund has served as a president ial chief of staff and was also seen as a potential successor to president felix just a kitty and his supporters say the trial was politically motivated we can now speak to Maurice Carney hes the executive director of friends of the congo race thank you for joining us i want to start with this ruling because of corruption amongst elites in the d. L. C. Is widely acknowledged to be endemic do you believe that this is a genuine step towards Holding People to account does todays ruling surprise you. Well it is surprising to some extent you have to understand the history of it ok marys a big fish as it is stated in that he was instrumental in getting president could be reelected in 2000 sticks he served as president of the parliament 2062009 and he was instrumental in getting a few extra security elected the presidency in 2018 and so hes not a small figure in the country so the fact that they were a process that resulted in such a huge political figure being sentenced to 20 years of hard labor is quite a stunning in and of itself now the people on the side of the union for demarking social progress would say that this is a sign of the president holding to the creed of the his party and of his father it interested katie in instituting what they call the rule of law on the other hand. Can marry side is his party and Party Members of the union for congolese nation which states a political process trumped up because there was a deal established between security ameri that in 2018 just security will be sent to the presidency and then 2023 when the next Elections Come around it would be vetoed the marriage turn and chicken in his party would back them so you have these 2 divisions in the country as it relates to at least among the political elite anyones maries this does appear to be a bit of a double edged sword which is a caddy you know on the one hand hes now had a powerful political competitor removed from the scene and it also but its his fight against corruption but hes also now lost an ally against kabila so how does this play out for him Going Forward. Its interesting that you say hes lost an ally against bill or because hes in coalition with could be the common front for the congo as we you know as we speak however he certainly certainly will be weakened because he would have lost their union for the congolese nation as this is key partner so its going to be hes only has a limited movement. Feeling sick living their lives civil is room for maneuver now is as strong especially as it comes to. 2023 elections however one thing about congolese politics is that situations are shifting people are already formed coalition in the job and so you you should expect so
