The community of the city of Peruíbe,

on the Southeast coast of Brazil,

has spent months mobilized against

the installation of a 1.7 gigawatt,

gas-fired power-plant,

which would generate

a lot of environmental and social damage.

The fight resulted in the approval

of an amendment to the law of the municipality,

which prevents the installation of polluting

and acid rain-causing industries.

We, from the association, we always said:

folks, this isn't going to be great.

It's not a good thing.

They say it will bring jobs but it isn't true.

We won't have all these opportunities

they are presenting to us.

So let's participate, let's join the fight,

because this isn't going to be positive,

especially in our region.

The place where the power plant was going to be built

is very close to our neighborhood,

so for us it wasn't going to be very nice.

[It would cause us] respiratory problems,

acid rain, without mentioning water -

we would have big problems with water.

So, for these reasons, we embraced the cause.

I was actually the first city councillor

to get involved in this action.

The moment this topic started

being discussed in the city council,

I expressed my position at the podium,

being completely against it,

precisely because of the features

that brought me to this city:

the quality of the air,

and whole natural environment where I live, in Guaraú.

And we had a very difficult voting session,

heated from the start.

I believe that the engagement

not only by the population, but also by groups

of people who gave testimony,

was very important for our success.

We [need to remember that]

we are here in the middle of

marine and land conservation areas.

We're in a region

where there's a big deficit in public services,

both in sanitation and healthcare.

We wrote a report, as a result,

against these power-plant plans.

We managed to leverage the benefit

that social networks brings to society;

that is to unite who are far away [from each other].

We united different people, from different places,

with different ways of thinking, different religions.

We managed to mobilize a big movement;

we ended up having a beautiful celebration.

It will be remembered, and unforgettable

and it will be an example to other cities,

that fight against this kind of project.

It was a beautiful victory.

US unleashes new F-35B fighter jet as Chinese planes swoop 'in preparation for WAR' - DAILY NEWS - Duration: 3:26.

US unleashes new F-35B fighter jet as Chinese planes swoop 'in preparation for WAR'

A NEW US F-35B fighter jet has been filmed soaring into the sky over the Pacific Ocean

in an apparent show of force aimed at North Korea and China.

Footage shows the F-35B Lightning II fighter jet taking off from the USS Wasp, a US Navy

amphibious assault ship, near the Japanese island of Okinawa.

Fitted with state-of-the-art radar evasion technology, the US military believes the new

F-35B will give them the upper hand over rivals such as North Korea, Russia and China.

The Lockheed Martin aircraft has been carrying out landing and takeoff exercises on the 40,000-tonne

aircraft carrier in recent days after it arrived on March 4.

The video has emerged ahead of joint military exercises involving the US and South Korea

that are likely to fuel simmering tensions in the region.

Over the weekend the Chinese Air Force said it deployed its latest bombers and fighter

jets for provocative combat drills over the South China Sea.

The fleet of H-6K bombers, Su-30 and Su-35 fighter jets flew over the Miyako Strait,

between Taiwan and Okinawa, where the USS Wasp is based.

In a statement released on Sunday, the Chinese Air Force called the exercises "rehearsals

for war".

US and Chinese displays of military might have become more frequent in the Pacific near

Japan, South Korea and over the South China Sea, a highly-sensitive region.

Costing an estimated $122.8million a unit, the fifth-generation F-35B fighter gives the

US military an advantage in terms of air power.

Rear Admiral Brad Cooper, commander of the USS Wasp, said the deployment "isn't focused

on any particular country".

But given the timing, the the F-35B's first Pacific mission is thought to be in response

to China's growing military presence in the region.

The highly-anticipated meeting between US President Donald Trump and North Korea leader

Kim Jong-un in May could also be a factor behind heightened US military activity.

"It really is an historic deployment, bringing this capability of the F-35 and the USS Wasp

together to create the most significant increase in our capability the Navy and Marine Corps

team has seen in our lifetime," Cooper told CNN on board the Wasp.

The F-35B will take part in the Foal Eagle and Key Resolve drills starting on April 1.

The month-long drills come amid a backdrop of improved diplomatic relations between North

Korea and the US in the wake of the Winter Olympics.

Cooper said the availability of F-35Bs "simply makes us more lethal" and allows the US

military to "ultimately win in combat".

US Will Kick Dozens Of Russian Diplomats Out Of The Country - Duration: 0:35.

On Monday, President Donald Trump ordered dozens of Russian diplomats to be expelled

from the U.S.

This move comes after an attack on a former double agent and his daughter in southern

England earlier this month.

U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May and other world leaders blamed Russia for the nerve

gas attack.

Trump said earlier the U.S. stood in solidarity with the U.K. and said Russia needed to provide

answers.

Beyond expelling 60 Russians, Trump also ordered the Russian consulate in Seattle to close.

In a statement, the White House said the U.S. was showing it stands with its NATO allies.

U.S. 'hopeful' deal can be reached with China on trade: Mnuchin - Duration: 0:38.

Amid growing concerns of a trade war between the U.S. and China, U.S. Treasury Secretary

Steve Mnuchin is striking a more subdued tone.

He told Fox News on Sunday that he's "cautiously hopeful" both sides can reach an agreement

on some issues, despite threats of tit-for-tat tariffs.

However, he added that President Trump's proposed tariffs on at least 60-billion-dollars-worth

of Chinese goods would go ahead unless both sides can reach an acceptable deal.

China has already threatened retaliatory tariffs on American agriculture products and fears

of a trade war have sent U.S. stocks tumbling.

Japan lobbies U.S. for abduction and missile preconditions ahead of U.S.-N.Korea summit - Duration: 2:46.

Japan appears to feel left out of the work being done by South Korea and the U.S. to

denuclearize North Korea.

And ahead of the summit in May between U.S. President Donald Trump and Kim Jong-un, Tokyo

has asked that Washington set out certain preconditions for those talks.

Those are that the North abandon its mid-range missiles... and that the talks resolve the

issue of the Japanese nationals abducted by the regime in the 70s and 80s.

Lee Seung-jae reports.

Japan appears to be on the sidelines as South Korea and the United States work hand-in-hand,...

planning their respective summits with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.

And while Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe took time over the weekend to meet with former

U.S. President Barack Obama during his trip to the country,... the Japanese government

continues to lobby the Trump administration to ensure there are preconditions ahead of

the U.S.-North Korea summit.

The preconditions include a promise from Pyongyang to resolve the long-running abduction issue

and to abandon their mid-range ballistic missiles capable of hitting Japan.

Japanese Foreign Minister Taro Kono made the request in separate talks in Washington earlier

this month with U.S. Defense Secretary James Mattis and Mike Pompeo, CIA director and President

Trump's nominee for Secretary of State, and Deputy Secretary of State John Sullivan.

According to Japanese officials, a number of its citizens were abducted by North Korea

in the 1970s and the 1980s,... and they are seeking U.S. help in bringing them home.

North Korea agreed with Japan in 2014 to reinvestigate the abductions, but the agreement quickly

fell apart.

However, Abe has more problems domestically,... as protesters took to the streets of Tokyo

over the weekend,... demanding he resign amid a widening cronyism scandal.

Hundreds of demonstrators turned out on Sunday,... carrying banners which read "Go to jail, Abe

',... with one sign even depicting Abe as a prisoner, in a black-and-white striped uniform.

The protest comes amid claims Abe was involved in the sale of state-owned land at a huge

discount to a nationalist school operator,... which his wife also has ties to.

The protestors also demonstrated against Abe's decision to revise the country's post-war

pacifist constitution as critics fear the revision could pave the way for the Japanese

military to play a bigger role overseas.

With the inter-Korean summit set for the end of April,... and the U.S.-North Korea summit

scheduled for some time in May,... Japan finds itself less involved in East Asia issues,...

with Abe's ongoing domestic problems,.. and his tanking approval ratings.

Florida governor may run for US Senate - Duration: 0:42.

Florida Gov. Rick Scott teased a "big announcement" on April 9, and it's fueling speculation that

he might run for Senate.

Republicans have long hoped Scott would run against Democratic incumbent Sen. Bill Nelson.

Nelson is Florida's only statewide elected Democrat.

And Scott seems to be in a pretty good position to run.

His approval rating is on the rise, and he's been steadily growing his federal super PAC.

But Nelson has won his last two races, and a Quinnipiac University poll found he'd beat

Scott by about 4 points.

Still that's not a huge margin, and Scott has one major advantage: lots of his own money

he can spend on the campaign.

U.S.-China trade war affects S. Korea..."S. Korea's exports to China to go down 20% - Duration: 0:47.

With the United States placing a 25-percent tariff on some Chinese imports last week,...

South Korea could get caught in the crossfire of any trade war between the economic superpowers.

According to the Hyundai Research Institute,... the U.S. tariffs on China's communication

technology, aerospace, information and machinery products,... will impact South Korea's exports.

Korea's IT exports to China could fall by 20-percent,... with Korea's overall export

numbers to decrease by 5-percent.

China's reciprocal tariff on 3-billion dollars of U.S. imports will have a minor effect on

South Korea,... as researchers estimate the loss in exports to be less than 100-million

dollars.

Hawkish figures at forefront in U.S. for May summit with N. Korea; Bolton stresses 'straight ... - Duration: 2:32.

Ahead of the first-ever summit with Pyongyang in May,... Washington is tapping some of the

most hawkish figures in key posts. The newly tapped national security advisor

states his country should get straight to discussing how the regime should denuclearize.

Oh Jung-hee delves deeper into what the U.S. could be planning for the upcoming historic

event. North Korea is willing to talk,... but only

to "buy more time." That's what Washington's incoming national

security advisor John Bolton said in an interview on Sunday.

Bolton's view is that North Korea still has a few more things to achieve before it can

strike the U.S. with nuclear weapons,... and according to him,... buying time for its

nuclear program is something the regime has done for decades.

He added... that the talks will have to jump straight into whether Pyongyang's going to

abandon its nuclear weapons and how the U.S. will get the weapons out of the country.

His comments come as the international community watches how **hawkish Washington's going to

be in dealing with North Korea... ahead of their first-ever summit in May.

U.S. President Donald Trump announced last week that Bolton would be replacing his national

security advisor H. R. McMaster... shortly after he tapped CIA chief Mike Pompeo to take

over as Secretary of State.

With hardline figures at the forefront,... it seems President Trump wants to seal the

deal with Pyongyang on a firm denuclearization. Before being named to his new post,... Bolton

said the meeting in May is going to be a "very short" one,... if Kim's not ready for a **serious

conversation. He added... (quote)"we can't kick the can

down the road any further because there isn't any road left."

"The U.S. and North Korea came to hold summit talks only because Kim Jong-un said the North

will denuclearize. So the key for Washington will be what practical measures Pyongyang

will actually take to denuclearize. The U.S. will press North Korea to show real action,

not just rhetoric."

Meanwhile, there is concern that coordination between South Korea and the U.S. could appear

weak... since Seoul, unlike Washington, believes that talking with North Korea -- in and of

itself -- is a move forward. But pundits think that because South Korea

and the U.S. do see eye-to-eye on the need for Pyongyang to denuclearize,... Seoul will

have to do its best to lead Pyongyang toward that goal through the April summit,... before

Kim Jong-un meets with Trump. Oh Jung-hee, Arirang News.

BREAKING: Former Top CIA Agent Issues Urgent Warning About What Deep State Is About To Do To TRUMP - Duration: 5:24.

BREAKING: Former Top CIA Agent Issues Urgent Warning About What Deep State Is About To

Do To TRUMP A former Central Intelligence Agency agent

known as Kevin Schipp recently spoke out saying that the deep state was and still is looking

to get rid of President Trump.

Something that has been alleged from other agents in the past from the Federal Bureau

of Investigation as well as the CIA.

In recent comments Schipp stated,

"They are terrified, they are terrified right now.

They did not expect Trump to do what he is doing now.

The reason they tried to get him even before he was elected is they knew he was uncontrollable,

and they knew if he got in there, they would not be able to manipulate him, and that is

exactly what's happening.

There are some people, and there is no doubt about it, that are running scared right now.

Donald Trump is questioning the Deep State and the shadow government.

He's rocking that place left and right.

The news media is terrified of that.

Their editors are telling them to attack him just like they are attacking him from the

inside.

It's just dirty pool because they want him taken out."

However, Schipp went on to explain the difference between the Deep State and the shadow government

saying,

"I differentiate between the 'Deep State' and the shadow government.

The shadow government are the secret intelligence agencies that have such power and secrecy

that they act even without the knowledge of Congress.

There are many things that they do with impunity.

Then there is the 'Deep State,' which is the military industrial complex, all of

the industrial corporations and their lobbyists, and they have all the money, power and greed

that give all the money to the Senators and Congressmen.

It is the shadow government . . . specifically, the CIA, that is going after Donald Trump.

It is terrified that some of its dealings are going to be exposed.

If they are, it could jeopardize the entire organization.

Trump's making tremendous progress despite tremendous resistance.

They have already done a character assassination on him, and I think they could go further

than that… Trump is making progress, and he has them running scared."

View image on Twitter BB4 reported,

"Of course, this isn't the first time Deep State operatives have discussed removing

President Trump.

Evangelical pastor Rodney Howard-Browne claimed last summer that a senior Republican lawmaker

told him a plot is in place to "take out" President TrumpThe lawmaker even told Howard-Browne

"there's nothing we can do to stop it."

As more former intelligence officials come forward to expose the Deep State, is it any

wonder the President is mulling a plan to build anti-Deep-State communications infrastructure?

As reported by The Intercept, the Trump administration is considering proposals developed by Blackwater

founder Erik Prince and a retired CIA officer in an effort to provide CIA Director Mike

Pompeo and the White House with a global, private spy network that would go around the

U.S.'s official SWAMP-INFESTED intelligence agencies.

Read more at TGP."

Schipp has had a controversial past with the CIA.

In 1999 he moved from the agency headquarters in Langley, Virginia to Camp Stanley, Texas.

The Schipp family, primarily Kevin himself, alleged that for two years while the family

was housed in Army-owned homes that they were poisoned by mold and bacteria in the walls.

Something which he said caused immense health issues with his family.

As a result, he sued the federal government for years and had his case thrown out.

Ever since, he has spoken out against the CIA and the deep state.

Despite any past experiences with the CIA and the federal government Schipp is not allowing

that to interfere with his ability to speak to the media about perceived injustices perpetrated

by the so-called Deep State.

Schipp expressed support for President Trump's December 2017 announcement regarding his Executive

Order on "Serious Human Rights Abuse or Corruption" by saying it was smart for the

president to call it a threat to U.S. national security.

The former CIA agent emphasized that the use of the term was effective because it is used

by the U.S. military, intelligence agencies, and domestic law enforcement.A handful of

former intelligence agents who no longer work for their respective agencies have found a

new profession in being media pundits contributing to larger news outlets such as CNN and Fox

News.

Their shtick tends to be that of an anti-government and anti-Deep State mentality.

Many of them have noted they believe the Deep State exists and that those who belong to

it do not want Republicans in office.

Share if you agree the Deep State is biased against Republicans and that they do not want

President Trump in office or his administration in power.

Share if you agree the Deep State wants President Trump to fail and would have preferred for

Hillary Clinton to win.

Japan lobbies U.S. for abduction and missile preconditions ahead of U.S.-N.Korea summit - Duration: 2:37.

Feeling left out of the ongoing South Korea-U.S. collaboration on denuclearizing North Korea,...

Japan has requested a set of summit preconditions for U.S. President Donald Trump,... who's

set to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un in May.
