biden and president and there were tense relationships when when joe biden was vice president during the obama administration and the 2 didn't go on terribly well perhaps joe biden feels slightly emboldened that he can take this step no because turkey is in a slightly weaker economic position that they're not likely to announce any huge backlash to me talk about it but really economically they can't really heart the united states and we know that joe biden one year ago on the 24th of april last year when he was then candidate biden said that he was going to take this step and he would perhaps have been emboldened by the fact that both the house and the senate in a bipartisan nature back in 2019 actually called this a genocide as well so i had all of that to the fact that the biggest armenian diaspora in the world is in the united states and particularly inside southern california joe biden obviously felt that this was a good time to make the move to on or a promise that he made and also believing that the backlash from russia from tucky might not be so big there is a problem though a

joe biden's voice modulates. it has the capacity to change pitch in a way that is, and we are quoting now, "rather extraordinary," and so on. we could keep going with this, cable news is a rich vein, but we will stop and turn to reality. a powerful politician gave a speech last night about how he plans to change your life. so we feel obligated to tell you what he said, and not simply commit a series of symbolic sex acts upon him. at the joe biden actually say? he said people who disagree with him are terrorists, more dangerous than the g bodies who destroyed the world trade center. watch. >> 100 days since i took the oath of office and lifted my hand off our family bible and inherited a nation, we all did, that was in crisis. the worst pandemic in a century, the worst economic crisis since the great depression. the worst attack on our democracy since the civil war. >> tucker: really? the worst attack on our democracy in 160 years? how about the immigration act of 1965? that law completely change the composition o

president joe biden announced the withdrawal of american and nato troops a couple of days ago the reason the translators you help them are so scared is that the taliban which is resurgent in the country as branded them national traitors and considers them legitimate targets as here i am again says interpreters that been left traumatized. i am regularly in touch with the afghan interpreters who are searched for the british army and they are still stuck in afghanistan and they are not aware of their future they are living in trauma and fare every day not knowing what could happen tomorrow or next they didn't so the situation is very risky for and with us in afghanistan unless the british government acts quickly and introduces an inclusive scheme that allows all interpreters to relocate to the u.k. the situation will not be resolved our part of the international. mission subjective in afghanistan was to secure europe and american borders from the threat of terrorism so afghans who joined the international forces and world doesn't target us alongside these forces they are actually the core o

joe biden is a crook. >> when joe biden is referring to jim crow, he is talking about what is happening with the vote. when you are trying to creating laws around the country that allow politicians to pick their voters and not voters to pick their politicians, he has a reason to call it out. you are worried about the fact he hasn't called out china, how come you did not mention russia? what do we know about putin? he has made himself president for life. what is that about. how come you mention china but not russia. joe biden is talking about china. china is the juggernaut. china does have its problems. he is talking about it. he wants to return to the world stage, bring the world together, address the pandemic, make sure we get shots in the arms around the world. he needs to work with people he disagree with -- he disagrees with. donald trump made love to putin, ignored the problems with china until he needed an enemy. now we see the rise in asia hate . we are a more divided nation and we have asian hate. thank you, donald trump. what a great contribution. >> i have a question for you.

joe biden says america is going to start getting back to normal in the coming summer months but what is that going to look like will normal only be for vaccinated folks while everyone else stays home such talk is being met with fury from republicans who are set against it especially when it comes from democrats who oppose aidid checks considering that democrats want to require vaccine i.d.'s for people to conduct their basic daily activities they now have 0 grounds to objects to voter id laws he funded democrat logic you should need $92.00 and even a grocery stool surely there wouldn't be an objection to showing an id to legally vote vaccine credentials would be a complete government over step individuals in america have a personal responsibility for their health the governor of florida is now promising a state wide ban it's completely unacceptable for either the government or the private sector to impose upon you the requirement that you show proof of vaccine to just simply be able to participate in normal society you want the fox to guard the hen house i mean give me a break i thin

biden shows a post joe biden commander-in-chief or joe biden who spent most of the past 50 years as a senator demanding that congress be given its proper authority. juan: i would ask you about another major foreign policy issue that biden would deal with, and that his relations with china. there's a very interesting column in today's "new york times" by thomas friedman, who is arguably one of the most influential -- can you hear me? >> yes, sorry. juan: this column today come he's argued one of the most influential voices of the u.s. neoliberal elite. his column is titled "is there a were coming between the u.s. and china?" he goes on to say -- "what has made this return to chinese, iranian aggressive nationalism more dangerous is that and each country, it is married to statelet industries, particularly the luke perry industries and it is emerging at a time when america's democracy is weakening." he does not mention the u.s. major defense industry and how our state is married to our defense industry, but he goes on to talk about taiwan as a major producer of the most advanced chips

applauding in new hope president joe biden says the u.s. is on the move again after the worst pandemic in a century. 100 days ago. america's house was on fire. we had to act. more about this in this is a doozy of a live from doha also coming up there's little comforts makeshift medical facilities as india tries to overcome oxygen and vaccine shortages in a coronavirus crisis. trying to turn the tide on tax reform colombia's government faces public rebellion over controversial proposals. and a core part of china's space station plans as launched into orbit. blueprint to build america that's what u.s. president joe biden has presented to congress on the eve of his 100th day in office and a wide ranging speech biden says he's turning peril into possibility after the devastation of the coronavirus pandemic saying america is back on the rise he's laid out plans to fix a shoes including trillions of dollars in investment in jobs infrastructure an education. 100 days since i took the oath of office and left in my hand off our family bible and heri

joe biden. of the 16 heads of state who were present, only joe biden wore a face mask. he sat there silently, nose and mouth covered in black cloth like a wrestler from an old western as mask was vladimir putin held forth on o international affairs but here's the weirdest part, that meeting took place over zoom, none of the leaders were in the same room, thousands of miles from each other so why was joe biden who has been fully vaccinated the only one wearing a mask? no one asked that question, alld precautions against covid are considered legitimate by the american news media no matter how self-evidently lunatic they may be. cover your face during a zoom call, drive to work alone with a mask on, it's all normal, says a "the new york times," but then yesterday our own peter doocy at the white house asked what was going on and here's the response he got. >> why was president biden the only world leader at the climate summit zoom who was wearing a mask? >> because he is sending a message to the wo

biden was counsel joe biden said he's interested in the normalization of russia u.s. relations but the actions of his administration show us the opposite the u.s. is not ready to deal with the reality of the multipolar world which shuts at the possibility of american has your money instead they count on sanctions and interference in our internal affairs just this week biden and putin talked over the phone to join the conversation the u.s. president and now a new batch of sanctions in putin's face only to express hope later for a stable and predictable way forward and the white house sees no problem here no discrepancy forget proof for good reason forget who's president even biden strategy is to bully a country out of geopolitical relevance and it seems that's the only predictable thing about america left after all trumps anti russia sanctions galore that appears to his whole. term didn't save the ex-president from being shamed for being soft on russia so maybe biden is resorting to nuclear options right away desperately trying to keep one foot in the door though the d

biden dismissed it as a russian plan which was absurd and and now joe biden will ultimately end up paying the consequences i guess we need to wait and see what's on the hard drive or i live in new york and journalist and author daniel is as thanks for joining us thank you. now one of the world's best known scientists shines a light on some of the biggest questions within the universe let's meets american astrophysicist at the old the grasse tyson he's a prolific t.v. and radio show host and also the author of a popular series of science books called cosmic queries the full interview saw the latest edition of going underground which you can watch now on r.t. dot com. powerful elites come up again and again in your latest book trying to trying to stop science as it was very aware about the power of astrophysics if your discoveries conflict with prevailing political cultural religious forces these are forces that historically have always controlled society yeah they'll be resistance for you have to expect that because people in power do not relinquish power easily but at the end of the day o

biden look joe biden is old he's an old white catholic man who has a very kind of. personality even people who are trying to demonize him now a hard time getting past that barack obama was a young black man with a foreign sounding name rooted in arabic. these are very different people right it's not surprising to me at all that that that things you know he is a different person american politics reacts to those 2 different kinds of people differently i think that that's just you know that that is just obvious the other thing is and this is one of those examples of sometimes a flawed person we're all flawed but sometimes a flawed person. meets their moment and the kind of a signature thing about joe biden to his political career has been the politics of empathy. and at many points in our history that is that is all that is of only limited political you know currency political resonance he managed to become president though in a period where it was a central grounding aspect of a political personality both because of covert and because he was succeeding a man who is w

biden has in the last 15 or 20 minutes those who support joe biden more say look if you look at the historians they all recognize this as a genocide the turks in the past have said well you can't hold people to account for what happened in 1800 by today's standards but of course there was a military tribunal in turkey after this incident and they found those guilty of war crimes the people that were responsible for this so it is a significant moment we can expect that there will be some harsh words from ankara we nor the turks in the past have condemned comments from the catholic pope when he has recognized the genocide and other world leaders when they have either recognized that. come close to recognizing it relationships between washington and ankara haven't been great over recent years that has in the eyes of many here in washington post the tarts more towards vladimir putin this would help it's interesting talking about the reaction from turkey because we actually heard from president red tape earlier this week on thursday in at to space and at this announcement from joe biden

joe biden or barack obama? barack obama i think beat him by 12 or 15 points, which when you look at their legislation, there's no comparison at this point. if you landed on earth and said, who is the more progressive of the two, if you look at what they've done in the first hundred days is joe biden. when you look at objective strategy, tone and manner, that's why he's getting it done. when you want to get something dramatic done, you don't scream, you whisper. and i think his tone has been so pitch perfect. >> joe biden held a drive-in rally yesterday in duluth, georgia. joining us now, the chairman of the democratic national committee, jamie harrison who was with the president yesterday. good to see you this morning. let's get your snapshot of these first 100 days from president biden. what he's done, what he's proposing to do, and the ambitious agenda that he's laid out. >> well, thank you so much for having me, willie. listen. it is so refreshing to be able to go to bed at night and wake up in the morning a

biden and the president of the one do not get on well that goes back to joe biden this time as vice president in the obama administration there have been tensions between the united states and turkey over recent years there was always a feeling that presidents were unwilling to go this far and declare what happened to the armenians as genocide because turkey was a close ally it straddles europe and the middle east there were u.s. air bases in turkey they really didn't want to upset ankara this decision by joe biden to make this announcement has been welcomed by nancy pelosi the speaker of the house saying her hearts are full of joy this will not help relations between ankara and washington d.c. . many thanks for that alan fischer giving us reaction from washington d.c. well turkey has rejected the announcement on twitter the foreign minister said words cannot change or rewrite history we have nothing to learn from anybody on our own past but it's cool opportunism is the greatest betrayal to peace and justice when tani reject the statement based solely on populism let's go to cinemas

watch joe biden before the election. here he is. >> there are 50 former national intelligence folks who said that what he's accusing me of is a russian plan. they have said that this has all -- 5, former heads of the cia's, both parties say what he's saying is a bunch of garbage. nobody believes except his and his good friend rudy giuliani. >> you mean the laptop is now another russia, russia hoax? >> that's exactly -- >> the -- russia -- maria: how do officials say such a thing when you came here you told us the truth? john: it's not about being right but truthful. that's why i came out at that time after adam schiff came out with narrative of this being russian information when there was no intelligence to support that. to your point to have 50 former obama-clinton-biden national security officials come out after the director of national intelligence says that this is not true and promote a false narrative to protect joe biden and try and influence the outcome of the election, that is the definition of politicizing int

joe biden's son. you know, i don't know the answer to that. i know what -- maria: right. >> -- the answer should be, but some of the same people involved here are the same folks that look at dozens of classified e-mails on hillary clinton's server, highly classified, top secret e-mails on a private server in her basement in new york and gave her a pass. maria: yeah. >> so, you know, don't hold your breath. maria: it's the reason that we are forced to raise the question, is this t why he's not bringing up the coronavirus? is there so many conflicts of interest that he doesn't want xi jinping to be the bad guy because that would mean donalduy trump may not be the bad guy? can't make xi jinping the bad guy. i mean,n, look, we just heard fm the former cdc director that the coronavirus likely came from the wuhan lab. and for months we've been hearing theav media tell us lisn to everything the cdc says. the cdc said wear a mask. no, the cdc says wear two masks. the cdc says don't go out. but as soon as the

president joe biden has pledged to cut u.s. carbon emissions inhofe by 2030 it's the most ambitious plan to target ever set in u.s. history some 40 countries are taking part of the 2 day virtual climate summit that biden is hosting from the white house analysts said biden special put pressure on other countries to follow suit china and russia put aside their disputes with the u.s. and also pledged to cooperate in fighting climate change but they have yet to announce specific emissions targets. but for more on this i'm not joined by she's the head of the macarthur research institute on global commons on climate change i think that here in berlin we'll get to how much of a game changer is biden's pledge. i would say it really is a game changer and yesterday though the whole day was a game changer for pa climate i would say because it's not only the case that joe biden the u.s. puts on the table a new target for 2030 but they also manage that other countries join them and putting more in their 1st target on the table i think u.k.

joe biden said he's interested in the normalization of russia u.s. relations but the actions of his administration show us the opposite the u.s. is not ready to deal with the reality of the multiple world which shots at the possibility of american has huge money instead they count on sanctions and interference in our internal affairs so at this point russia says that they are going to react to these measures coming from the u.s. and the white house in turn says they reserve the right to react to russia's reaction while adding and here's the kicker that it would be best if everyone restrain themselves from escalating the situation any further. a political analyst chris bambery believes sanctions are the least efficient way that was over the current issues between moscow and washington if you recall when donald trump was 1st elected he was adamant he was going to improve a relationship with with putin and with moscow but a majority opinion in the white sows the united states military united states security and american elites in general is unfit religi

joe biden talked about this a lot. they are putting billions as well into semiconductor manufacturing and upgrading research. to do this, you will have to have taxes and that will be hard for the gop to get around. manus: absolutely. and how long will it take to get that through the houses in the united states. mohamed el-erian warns about a knock on effect on buybacks. two stories that will define the differential between the u.s. and the rest of the world. france goes into a four-week lockdown, two weeks of that is easter. sweden stopping the use of astrazeneca. germany stopping giving into those people over 60. more bumps in the road for the astrazeneca vaccine rollout in europe. the laggard in the vaccine rollout narrative. those two things will just pull back a little bit from the fiscal narrative delivered from the united states of america. annmarie: clearly it is that virgins between what is going on -- it is a divergence between what is going on in brussels and washington, d.c. biden spoke about jobs that will

that after a recent spate of mass shootings president joe biden announces his 1st gun control measures he moves to tighten some regulations but warns much more is needed. hello i'm terry martin good to have you with us the number of refugees fleeing the military's violent crackdown in myanmar is rising india should india shares a 600 kilometer border with me on mar with strong ethnic and cultural ties between local communities on both sides so india might seem the natural destination for those forced to leave their homes but can those who end up there feel at home we meet one woman and her daughters who have settled in the indian capital delhi a warning some viewers may find this report to starving. for the last 6 years and her girls have felt safe here in delhi but it didn't come easy to get here they had to leave everything behind in their need of man much when he says her husband was tortured and killed by the military. later they were forced to run for their lives after they were caught sheltering students protesting against the military now the situation in myanmar is bringing bac

president joe biden tougher greener and even meaner than the world was expecting if anyone thought joe biden would put the restoration of america's role in the world on the back burner while he deals with domestic issues they were in for a big disappointment from the start biden has taken a hard line with america's main rivals he has refused to lift sanctions on iran as a condition for restarting nuclear talks trade tariffs on china are still in place and u.s. diplomats have visited taiwan biden impose new sanctions on russia for interference in the 2020 alexion is and when asked if he considered russian president vladimir putin to be a killer he said without hesitation i do biden said there would be consequences for saudi arabia after u.s. intelligence concluded the saudi crown prince had been responsible for the murder of a u.s. journalist and critics point out that they are still waiting to see the consequences candidate biden promised to bring america back has president biden kept his word he used chief international editor richard walker has this report. during the trump years the

perspective joe biden who has announced a number of executive orders on gun control. the measures come in the wake of several recent mass shootings. among the actions, a ban on so called ghost guns oromemade fire arms. he also called on the senate to pass legislation already passed by the house that would close loopholes for background complex. president biden: gun violence in this country is an epidemic and it's an international embarrassment. we saw it again last night as i was coming to the overwhelm office. i got the word that in south carolina, a physician with his wife, two grandchildren and a person working at his house was gunned down, all five. so many people, so many of the people sitting here today know that well, unfortunately. >> earlier i spoke to our washington correspondent and i asked her what kind of difference biden's executive orders can actually make. >> they are a big and important first step but they are pretty limited in scope and joe biden knows that and that is why you heard him ask and call repeatedly on congress to act because he knows that

i'm here in the home of 12 to the program joe biden has outlined what he called his blue blueprint to build america and his 1st speech to congress as u.s. president biden discussed his plans to reduce poverty and invest in infrastructure to create jobs. he also stressed the need for the u.s. to reassert its place in the well it's both economically and politically we all know life can knock us down but in america we never ever ever stay down americans always get up today that's what we're doing america's rising to do choosing hope over fear truth over lies and light over darkness after 100 days of rescue read old america is ready for takeoff in my view we're working again dreamy again discovered again and leading the world again we have shown each other around the world that there's no quit in america non. these all of the scientists joins us from washington d.c. so all of the what did you make of the speech. well certainly a speech of reassurance and all fold and what we really saw there was the joe biden has an agenda and that is strengthening the middle class because this is exactly
