Strike near an aleppo school is said to kill nine children and teachers. Plus. Im on the island in costa rica, and well show you how a womens collective worked hard to save the mangrove swamps. And sport the final round of the marathon and a drama in cycling hello. After weeks of speculation Hillary Clinton finally declared that she is running for the democratic nomination to become the next president of the United States. Posting on twitter, the former secretary of state and first lady said she wanted to be a champion for every day americans, her second attempt to secure the top job after being beaten by president obama in the 2008 primary race. Im running for president. Americans have fought their way back from tough economic times, but the deck is stacked in favour of those at the top. Every day americans need a champion. I want to be that champion. You can do more than get by you can get ahead and stay ahead. When families are strong americans are strong. So im hitting the road to
I have to agree with the deputy general, i dont know what i dont know which 106 out of how many . Someone over 300. The third, i would hope that it is true that not every swiss bank engaged in this kind of conduct. So i think about onethird was a remarkable response to the program. Yours in the department of justice has made no explanation whatsoever . We really dont measure . Were at the atc been finalized i believe that narrative glosses over the years of widespread misconduct across the bank. They asserted that they would have turned over the name of account holders but they were prevented from doing so by swiss bank. Secrecy laws. However it appears that fa tc loopholes in the 2009 protocol wont permit u. S. Authorities to give names for accounts close before 2009. This means its highly unlikely the United States will be able to collect much of the loss tax revenues from aliens hidden overseas. I dont buy their narrative. The American People shouldnt darsha the department of justic
Furious this morning with just hours to go until a debate and vote on the rules for president Trumps Senate impeachment trial. Senate Majority Leader Mitch Mcconnell released his rules proposal last night, and democrats are calling it deeply unfair. Senate democratic leader Chuck Schumer says the mcconnell resolution shows he is, quote, going along with trumps coverup hook, line and sinker. When you look at his resolution its no wonder he delayed it until the last minute. He didnt want people to study it or know about it. After reading mcconnells resolution its clear mcconnell is hell bent on making it much more difficult to get witnesses and documents and intent on rushing the trial through. Senior Congressional Correspondent manu raju has the latest from capitol hill. Good morning, laura and ryan. Now just hours before the senate trial is officially set to begin, Mitch Mcconnell unveiled the resolution detailing the parameters of how the trial would actually take shape. And under the
That senator mcconnell put forward there will be lots of amendments democrats will offer. Those amendments undoubtedly will be rejected by republicans. Probably all of them will fail. Theyll seek to require witnesses and documents from coming forward. Republicans say well deal with that later in the trial. Ultimately the mcconnell plan will be adopted some time late tuesday. And then wednesday come opening arguments. The democrats have 24 hours to make their case, but they can only use two days of the 24 hours. So that means it could go probably on wednesday and thursday of this week. Thats when the opening arguments of the democrats would happen. And afterwards the white house the president s team would have 24 hours to make their case. So that would happen on probably friday, saturday and maybe not use all that time, they could yield that time back and at that point the senators will question all the will question the two sides up to 16 hours. Its possible those questions could exten
