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

joe biden has insisted migrant admissions will continue despite admitting the unprecedented immigration situation is now a crisis that as as the president is increasingly pressured by fellow democrats artie's kaleb more pain has the story. for months the white house has been insisting that it is not the time to use the word crisis for the situation at the border. illegally here right now the crisis the border i see he said the answer is no i think there is a challenge at the border of. this crisis center but i don't think we need to sit here and put new labels on what we have already conveyed is challenging but now biden has given in he's using the scary word that he tried to avoid because there obviously is one so how does biden intend to put out the flames of the crisis well he's going to allow more refugees into the country. if. the traditional authorities in america such as the police and the border patrol are on the edge of rebellion because the policies being thrust on them from washington d.c. are destroying their ability to do their jobs and destroying before their eyes the natu

president jeff zucker himself naturally trying to make joe biden out to be a spring chicken was the other side of the anti trump propaganda calling yeah i mean really we did it right but there was. a noise and shaking or whatever and he brought in like so many medical people so like all tell a story like this is all speculation you know you're shocked to hear john. mccain. you know. him and aviator she. hates him is a. young period. that sounds a lot like election meddling something c.n.n. has pointed the finger at russia for time and time again blaming on unverifiable claims from u.s. intelligence and its reputation as evidence the. in last year's elections the network claimed that moscow was trying to hurt joe biden's chances by spreading conspiracy theories about the now u.s. president i'm talking about russia attacking our election russia once again interfered in the race for the white house russia is indeed interfering in the 2020 election with that kind of a double standard it should come as no surprise that people's trust for c.n.n. is on the decline but we don't think that this is

think he's essentially being run by others in the democrat party who have a goal that i'm not sure joe biden even understands and that is to get as many illegal immigrants in here as possible to make a fundamental change in the make up of american citizenship 1st get the mere then make them citizens and give them the vote well the white house spokesperson is sticking with the democrats sacred mantra children presenting at our border who are fleeing violence or fleeing prosecution who are fleeing terrible search and. it is not a crisis so while the white house scrambles to deal with the crisis one thing is clear while we are here talking the migrants just keep coming up and r.t. new york well i would love to have had your thoughts on all of our stories so do get in touch by following us on social media leaving comments that will be back at the top of the hour see them. when else truths seem wrong. but also just don't all. let me. get to shape out these days because etiquette and in detroit equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. ps

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

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 and russian president vladimir putin to secure a u.s. desire for a predictable relationship the united. gates announced surprise russia sanctions we cannot allow a foreign power to interfere in our direct democratic process with impunity more than 30 russian entities are being targeted at least 10 russian diplomats will be expelled from the united states and some tech firms are being punished for allegedly providing support to russian intelligence sanctions also put in place rules banning some financial dealings involving russia's sovereign debt to choke off lending and inflict economic harm we want a stable predictable relationship and russia continues interfere with our democracy i'm prepared to take further actions to respond. the white house says the sanctions are retaliation for russia's alleged aggressive actions including the occupation of crimea interference in u.s. presidential elections and last year solar winds hack that infiltrated the computers of thousands of u.s. businesses and government agencies. the sanctions also respo

actions speak a whole lot louder than those sort of words joe biden was because of 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 shots at the possibility of american has humani 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. or political analyst chris bambery believes sanctions are the least efficient way to resolve 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

to withdraw its troops from afghanistan by next month are being delayed president joe biden is expected to announce in the next few minutes that forces will leave by september 11th now under a deal signed with the taliban the troops were to pull out by may the 1st at the peak of the war in 2001 there were more than 100000 american troops nearly 10000 foreign troops some 36 countries are still serving as part of a nato mission and the u.s. contributes the most followed by germany and its defense minister says she'll meet with officials from the u.s. u.k. and france to coordinate their eggs. well a delay in the withdrawal raises questions about talks with the taliban and afghan governments which are set to resume in turkey b. taliban has said it won't take part until all foreign troops leave but some bring in karen hawkins she's our white house correspondent kelly and we are waiting for the president to speak any moment now on the troop withdrawal. that's right as we await the president we've had a little bit more of an understanding about the process for this new deadline because of cour

biden my mind is joe biden has always always been a consensus democrat he will basically be where the democratic party is kind of wherever it goes and so in that in that sense i agree with liz it does not surprise me greatly that this is where he has ended up i was telling a lot of people in kind of intradermal craddick party discussions you know during the primaries that that this is this is where i thought that you know where i thought that he would be look there's some obvious things with joe biden look joe biden is old he's an old white catholic man who has a very kind of genie all 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. is a 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

i don't think that is joe biden's priority. he is a 50-50 joe biden's priority. he is a 50—50 senate, knows he has a small window and has a brief amount of time to push as much as possible to be this transformative president he tra nsformative president he wants transformative president he wants to be and that is what we're seeing. the saturday bed earlier. it the complete russell bill clinton's speech saying the era of big government's over and this is the era of arriving. he needs assistance. we have a 50—50 congress and senator manchin is going to pay a significant role republicans will play a role. the expansion is unprecedented.— will play a role. the expansion is unprecedented. brian, do you think he can _ is unprecedented. brian, do you think he can do _ is unprecedented. brian, do you think he can do it. _ is unprecedented. brian, do you think he can do it. he _ is unprecedented. brian, do you think he can do it. he laid - is unprecedented. brian, do you think he can do it. he laid out. think he can do it. he laid out a very ambitious plan to reshap

president joe biden calls for action to fight the epidemic of gun violence following another mass shooting in indianapolis. a rights group says facilities on the us mexico border been pushed to the limit because so many migrant children are sharing up. a change of the gods time in 62 years cuba will not be led by a castro and the how much in sports vancouver's hockey team is out of action again he cannot to play has been delayed indefinitely after more than 20 players tested positive for corona virus. russia appears to be following through on the promise of action against the us off to washington an ounce to a set of sanctions and other measures against the kremlin president joe biden announced on thursday for what he says is russia's election meddling and cyber attacks well in the past few hours foreign minister sergei lavrov said he would aust 10 u.s. diplomats to leave the country and he says russia is looking at painful measures aimed at u.s. businesses. about it smith who is in moscow for us but it we're getting more information now on who is going to be banned from russia as part of

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

[applause] president joe biden has the will and the courage to act. [applause] as a united states senator, joe biden took on the gun lobby not once, but twice, and he won. in 1993, he worked to pass the brady handgun violation prevention act. it established a background check system and has kept more than 3 million firearms out of the hands of dangerous people. a year later, he worked to pass another law to ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines for 10 years. as vice president, joe biden led the efforts to reduce gun violence. we were reminiscing he and i talked back then about his work. i was attorney general of california. his work resulted in nearly two dozen actions, from narrowing the loophole, to expanding funding for mental health services. as you will hear, president joe biden is a leader with great will, great determination, and greater empathy. he has seen the grief of all of those who have lost a loved one to gun violence. it is, for them, for all of us, he will never give up on this. it is my great honor to introduce the president

well you know it is a little bit of a mystery given the fact that we know that lattimer putin and joe biden had a phone call just earlier this week and following that phone call the white house said what its goal was in that call was to try and establish when it comes to russian u.s. relations relations that are stable and predictable and then just days later we have these surprise sanctions so it is a bit of a head scratcher about the timing but what is clear is that the u.s. feels that now is the time to put in place some of those punitive actions against russia that the united states has taken in years and there's another reason they're taking these actions that has to do with the alleged bounties that were placed on u.s. soldiers of up to $100000.00 fighting in afghanistan by russia we should point out russia denies this and we should also point out that the u.s. intelligence on this allegation is of the category of low to medium confidence that it's even accurate still the white house is defending these actions say this on the burden of russia to explain its posture and engagemen

president joe biden's 1st $100.00 days in office americans always get out. today that's what we're doing america's right. but as biden celebrated his achievements on wednesday night in his 1st formal address to congress many challenges still remain something we'll explore over the next 60 minutes. in 93 at the depths of the great depression franklin roosevelt used his 1st months as u.s. president to push sweeping legislation through congress it stabilized the nation in economic freefall and reshaped americans' relationship with their government for decades to come and this set a political benchmark against which every subsequent president has been judged now when joe biden marked his 1st $100.00 days with a speech to congress and the country he set similarly ambitious goals promising trillions of dollars in investment in jobs in infrastructure and in education republican party hit back and attacked biden for empty words and broken promises let's look back now at biden's 1st $100.00 days with this report from grossman george. when the us president speaks to c

joe biden spent decades in the u.s. congress as a senator. he was back with an ambitious program that could see him becoming a transformational u.s. president. good to be back. he began by drawing attention to the historic fact that for the 1st time ever the 2 people behind him where women madam speaker. madam vice president i. know you measure this. has never said those words from this podium no president ever said those words. then a grim summary of his 1st 100 days combined with a note of optimism 100 days since i took the oath of office left in my hand off our family bible and heritage nation we all did it was in crisis the worst pandemic of the century the worst economic crisis since the great depression the worst attack on our democracy since the civil war now after just 100 days i can report to the nation america is on the move again. offering a wide ranging vision of jobs prosperity and a new big government with big spending plans biden said he would pay for it all with higher taxes on corporations and the super rich continuous cycle

refugee crisis in our time there is no reason to limit the number 215000 say it ain't so president joe completely and utterly unacceptable biden promised to welcome immigrants and people voted for him based on that promise keep your promise in march alone 172000 migrants were detained at the border that's a 15 year high those people are now the responsibility of the vice president cobbler harris has recently been named by the white house as the borders are now she hasn't actually visited the area sense there she says she just doesn't have time however border guards now suspect that she's purposely avoiding them because if she goes to the u.s. border people are going to expect her to fix the problem so she avoids it that is that's disgusting because that's putting politics ahead of what's best for this country biden seems now stuck in an almost impossible situation how does he please the progressives but also deal with the crisis he will say whatever he needs to say and i don't believe he is at present sharp enough to figure that out on his own i think he's being given guidelines so i t

joe biden could meet in person for the 1st time as heads of states in the near future. 'd between the president's. state of emergency is declared in minnesota where a curfew for a 2nd straight night following the fatal shooting by police the chief of police in the city where the. one minute past 11 at night here in moscow this choose the 13th you are welcome to r.t. my names you know the. u.s. health authorities are advising against the use of the. after 6 recipients in the country develop blood clots the american company is aware of the rare disorder decided to delay the vaccine in europe. johnson and johnson have described this as a proactive delay to their vaccine being rolled out across the european union they had expected that they would be giving vaccines to people 'd by the end of this week however that is not going to happen it follows a move by regulators in the united states to suspend the use of the vaccine there are 6 people who would have the vaccine developed what was called a rare blood clotting disorder out of an abundance of caution decide to see an f.d

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

president joe biden and vladimir putin the russian leader the white house press secretary gentz psaki not disclosing who initiated that phone call but we do know that the call resulted in the leaders agreeing to meet at a later date for a summit in a 3rd party country those details still being worked out so a very busy white house press briefing in terms of news headlines there absolutely is to stay there for us can believe sports it's a scar in the minutes but of course the crew virus. issues so very much to the forefront of people's mind right now let's speak. she is standing by for us i'd say the u.s. food and drug administration in silver spring. patty this polls of the the johnson and johnson vaccine pretty much where a lot of people's minds just give us a sense of what you know about how the polls has been introduced and what kind of impacts will bond have on the wider u.s. vaccine. well the biden ministration says the johnson and johnson johnson and johnson vaccine was the 3rd vaccine approved it's being used less than the other to the pfizer and they say they've seen no red fl
