Folk. To the program u. S. President donald trump is to send federal agents to several more u. S. Cities he says that the step is to combat rising crime all this after he sent federal officers to the city of Portland Oregon where they have been targeting protesters demanding Racial Justice officials there say that the deployment has only stoked local langar. For the 54th not in a row protesters flood the streets of portland. But theres a new chant being sung feds harun. Theyre referring to federal agents dispatched by the trumpet ministration to crack down on the protests and their presence has been controversial agents have been accused of driving in unmarked vehicles while wearing military fatigues and truly a resting a handful of demonstrators the local governor a democrat not mincing her words. This is a democracy not a dictatorship we cannot have secret police abducting people into and putting them in unmarked vehicles. I cannot believe i have to say that to the president of the United States i know that were outraged americans should be appalled despite the controversy it hasnt stopped President Trump announcing that more federal agents will be sent to other u. S. Cities saying its a result of Violent Crime not protesters and i am announcing a surge of federal Law Enforcement into American Communities plagued by Violent Crime will work every single day to restore Public Safety protect our nations children and bring violent perpetrators to justice federal officers will be sent to albuquerque and chicago both democrat run cities critics say their deployment is political an attempt to make democrats look weak on crime but mary of chicago says she welcomes the partnership with federal agents but warns against using the same tactics as important. Ive been very clear. Not happening in chicago we dont need federal troops we dont need unnamed secret federal agents roaming around the streets of chicago thats not democracy that we saw unfolding in the streets of portland as a result of this federal action thats what we call tyranny and dictatorship and were not having it in chicago. Residents of chicago say extra police once sold the issues facing the city saying action on gun control would be more effective in tackling Violent Crime. So lets head live now to Portland Oregon where i am joined by activists and journalists laura laura welcome to the program and we know that youve actually been part of the protests you but youve been in them this evening tell us what you have been witnessing. Well for the last 8 days arlen has been protesting for black lives matter and the television and then around the nation tonight protesting primarily against after about 11 in america met and talked earlier but recently there was a riot clarence so im going to give out i do apologize but its been a lot of back and forth but if youre right. The president says for his part that these federal agents are stepping in in order to combat rising crime so what is your response to that there there is no rising crime in early in oregon there are protests that have been nonviolent their property destruction but no no injuries to any human being i protest whatsoever this is this is not the case trying to seventys and to quell civil unrest and to suppress free speech. The governor for her part has said and im quoting here we cannot have secret police abducting people have you witnessed anything like that. I havent but this did i go people have told me that it is but its the dense its terrifying i mean the people that have been abducted and released with it a few hours without a work but of course theres no guarantee that will continue to have it it kills like a message that they can do whatever they want to us and there are a lot of very right here to talk with us about the resolve among the protesters expect especially you know before the federal agents were introduced and after because you know some politicians they are claiming that you know the introduction of federal agents is now just exasperating the situation is that something that you would agree with based upon what youve been observing on the streets i would absolutely agree that i would say that its galvanized us its become clear that this is an issue even beyond its brutality which is a huge issue but at this point the have to take a stand if federally and then for coming in and its without any kind of i dont think that. Violent is pressing free speech in crowd control your ship that is very response dangerous but is yet to take a stand against that and i think all of that if you buy it in these protest group 100 or 206 go to 1000 today. Laura jedediah activist and journalist joining us from the streets of Portland Oregon where we have seen protests in recent days recent weeks thank you so much for giving us a bit of perspective there thank you very much.

Lets get more im joined by our correspondent max sander who is standing by for us in brussels so what can we expect from this Parliament Today because the stakes are really high max well thats true i mean peace will come together to discuss the outcome of last weekends or the summit the european leaders some of them over the last couple days and the special session here today in brussels and today is not about voting and on the package but largely about finding Common Ground within the European Parliament a common negotiating position Commission President was off on the lawn will be there as well as you counsel president ial michaud who is one of the architects of the steel and there look likely to meet a large discontent with some of lot of the lawmakers already threatening to throw out the deal as were hearing but threatening to throw out the deal i mean that would really be a massive if that doesnt happen especially considering how far hard fought this still was max what are the main criticisms. Well i mean pieces are unhappy. About a long list of things im one of it would be. Watered down rule of law mechanism and then also a significant cuts to the overall size of the european budget as well as individual programs and there were bits of budget cuts in areas such as Youth Research digitalisation and climate which used to be on top of huge agenda the green deal just to point out 11. 00 point a cornerstone of Commission President from the Alliance Presidency was cut sic in that significantly. Given all of those factors max i mean and given all of the stakes after this resolution today how are things now likely to proceed going forward. So this is the beginning of further negotiations between the parliament and other e. U. Institutions and they will have to see how much wiggle room there is how much room for further improvement there is on the on the parliament side the political deal the political outline has been is done this has been discussed over the last couple days but the legal details still need to be ironed out and this is where the parliament can come into play and then after the summer break come september lawmakers will come together here in brussels again and vote on the deal finally whatever they still look like it in a vote on the deal theres no backup plan if they if they vote against it is there. So there is no backup plan as of now but its quite unlikely that the parliament who will throw out the deal critics say this is theres subaru. This is the criticism by lawmakers is largely saber rattling they know homeport this deal is how hard fought it was how. Long it took and how urgent it is but. President so the president of the European Parliament yesterday made clear that the European Parliament will not vote on the deal as it stands now they want to increase the pressure and they want to make changes to the areas that they can max and our correspondent in brussels thank you.
