With the eyes of the nation on Florida again, MSNBC's Ari Melber hosted his show live from Broward County tonight where protesters have gathered. And multiple times over the course of the broadcast a lot of the chanting was very much audible.

Melber spoke to protesters himself earlier today and showed some of the footage, including Trump supporters who agreed with the President getting involved on the recount.

As Melber spoke with his guests, however, viewers could clearly hear chanting from the protesters nearby, including things like "Stop the steal!" and one very clear chant of "Trump! Trump! Trump!"

At one point when Melber spoke to Congressman Ted Deutch and said that Trump is lying about voter fraud and undermining the legitimacy of elections, very audible chants of "fake news" started ringing out.

The Kansas City Health Department threw away and poured bleach on food meant for homeless people.

The food was going to be distributed by a group called Free Hot Soup KC. The Kansas City Star said that the food, which included home-cooked chili, foil wrapped sandwiches and vats of soup, was destroyed on Sunday, Nov. 5, during a coordinated sting at several parks where volunteers had gathered.

The Health Department said the group did not have a permit and was putting people at risk.

"E. coli or salmonella or listeria can grow in the food," department director Rex Archer said. "And then you give that to homeless people who are more vulnerable, they will end up in the ER and even die from that exposure."

A unique campaign to make Toowoomba a porn-free city is spreading across the country and has sparked international interest.

Toowoomba is preparing for its third annual public rally next month during which the city's mayor stands shoulder-to-shoulder with men from all walks of life and together they pledge not to watch pornography.

"There is overwhelming research out now that reveals the damage that porn does to an individual, to relationships, families and society," Toowoomba resident Letitia Shelton, the chief executive officer of local organising group City Women, said.

An anti-Trump protester holds a sign during a demonstration in Paris.
The French don't like speaking in foreign languages, but the host of a popular comedy show remembered his English lessons and pulled no punches in the telling US President Donald Trump that he wasn't welcome in Paris.

The 'Quotidien' (Daily) program aired on TMC channel ahead of Trump's arrival to France for the Saturday's 100th anniversary since the armistice of World War I.

The host, Yann Barthes, began his show in French, but then switched to English so that the US President, whom he claimed could've been among the viewers, would understand him.

Comment: So deep, edgy and original.

101yo French woman mistakes Merkel for Macron's wife

Macron Merkel
A senior French woman mistook German Chancellor Angela Merkel for the wife of President Emmanuel Macron, Brigitte. The two leaders, however, have indeed shared lots of affectionate moments at the centenary of the end of WWI.

The hilarious - and quite touching - conversation took place outside the Glade of the Armistice memorial in Rethondes, video released by French media shows. Macron and Merkel bumped into the 101-year-old French woman, who was very excited to meet her country's president in person.

"Monsieur Macron! It's not possible. A little woman like me shaking hands with the president of the republic. That's fantastic!" the woman told Macron.

Just as France calmed down after the case of a student threatening a teacher with a 'gun' in class went viral, another scandal has hit the suburbs of Paris after a student beat and attempted to strangle his teacher at a school.

The violent incident took place at a vocational high school in the Bezons commune earlier in November, when a 16-year-old attacked his math professor after he told him to leave the class.

Instead of leaving, the teen hit the teacher's nose with his palm and "grabbed his neck to strangle him," a source familiar with the case told AFP. Other students intervened to separate them and control their classmate.

The teacher was rushed to a local emergency room with minor injuries to the neck.

The teen was indicted for "aggravated violence" on Sunday, according to the local prosecutor's office. He has been placed "under judicial control" and is banned from attending the school or approaching the victim.

The official Fox News account on Twitter has been silent for days, reportedly in protest at the platform's slow response to content which the network says put host Tucker Carlson's family in danger last week.

The most recent post on the account is dated last Thursday, November 8 - the day after activists from the radical left-wing Antifa movement showed up at Carlson's Washington, DC home calling the host a "racist scumbag" and chanting that "we know where you sleep at night."


Comment: Antifa surround home of Tucker Carlson, calling him 'racist scumbag' and threaten him - 'We know where you live'


Fox News has chosen to stay silent on the platform because it objects to the way Twitter has handled posts targeting Carlson, "specifically the ones that included his address," according to Tribune Media content manager Scott Gustin.

'Heinous' crime: Indigenous Canadian women still being forcibly sterilized, claims senator

A Canadian senator claims that unwilling indigenous women are still getting coerced into being sterilized across Canada. The senator now wants the "heinous" issue investigated nationwide.

Sterilization by tubal ligation - a process by which the fallopian tubes are either tied, burned or severed - is not just a shameful relic of Canadian history, Senator Yvonne Boyer claimed, but a process that is still happening across the country today.

According to a report published last year, the procedure is frequently carried out on indigenous women in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. The report relies only on verbal evidence from women in the Saskatoon region, and was authored by Boyer herself.

After being contacted by survivors, Boyer now believes that the practice is far more commonplace than previously believed.

Pamela Anderson
Pamela Anderson is not a supporter of the #MeToo movement. In a new interview with Australia's 60 Minutes on Sunday, the former Playboy model slammed #MeToo, claiming it has gone "too far."

"I think this feminism can go too far," Anderson said. "I'm a feminist, but I think that this third wave of feminism is a bore."

She added, "I think it paralyzes men, I think this #MeToo movement is a bit too much for me. I'm sorry, I'll probably get killed for saying that."

Anderson, 51, brought up the allegations against Harvey Weinstein and said it was "common sense" to avoid those types of "business meetings."

Comment: Pamela Anderson says Weinstein's accusers knew what they were getting into by going to hotel rooms alone

Think what you will of Ms. Anderson, she works hard on behalf of the causes she cares about, principally freeing Julian Assange and animal welfare. She is also remarkably well-connected, speaking regularly to Assange's mother and at the Kremlin.

National Action members
An 'outstanding soldier' was at the centre of neo-Nazi terrorists' attempts to recruit inside the British army. Mikko Vehvilainen was jailed for eight years after being convicted for membership of the banned-group National Action.

Afghanistan veteran, Royal Anglian Regiment Corporal Mikko Vehvilainen, 34, served as a 'recruiter' for National Action (NA), according to prosecutors.

The group had been trying to grow its membership through the targeting of the armed forces. Other NA members had been repeatedly trying to join the army, but were rejected.

The court heard how Finnish-born Vehvilainen was connected to three other soldiers, two of which were disciplined internally and remained a part of the forces, while the third was thrown out of the force.

Comment: Something is afoot in European military circles.
