This was the police said a very different night of protest an entire Police Precinct in minneapolis was set on fire as anger directed at those who swear to protect and serve escalated. Not far from the Police Station mall burning shops looting and violence protests have spread across the United States in denver demonstrators echoed the demands for justice already heard in los angeles and new york anger over the treatment of africanamericans by the police is new but it is very wrong right now. In lewisville kentucky the death of george floyd has reopened old wounds with protesters demanding justice for an africanamerican woman who was shot dead by police 2 months ago it is this video of the last moments of George Floyds life a Police Officer kneeling on his neck thats driving the outrage floyds family the citys mayor and National Politicians are calling for the officer to be charged with murder we did see a murder on t. V. And it wasnt selfdefense the f. B. I. Is promising a thorough investigation but it could take weeks for a prosecutor to decide on criminal charges and people here are impatient francis i am pleading i am pleading with individuals. To remain calm and to let us conduct this investigation President Trump called those involved in the violence thugs and said he was prepared to have the federal government assumed control at the mass request minnesota is sending in the army National Guard donald trump knows nothing about the strength of minneapolis we are strong as hell is this a difficult time period yes but you better be damn sure that were going to get through this. The protests in George Floyds name are only growing as more people in more cities feel justice in america is far from equal Victoria Gate and be aljazeera. Well lets take a closer look at what president tom tweeted about the protests 1st warning the mayor of minneapolis to get his act together and then writing that least auxerre dishonoring the memory of george floyd and he wont let that happen trump also said he had told the governor of minnesota that the military is with him all the way any difficulty and we will assume control but when the looting sods the shooting starts while donald trump is not the 1st to use such a threat former miami police chief want to headley was the 1st to say when the looting sonce a shooting starts while promising violent reprisals on protesters in 1967 while twitter has hidden tweets saying it violates the rules of law glorifying violence however it can still be viewed by clicking into it with twitter saying it may be in the publics interest for it to remain accessible or this is now the 3rd tweet that twitter has flung the president accuses a social media giant of censorship on various days signed an executive order d aimed at stripping social Media Companies of some Legal Protections especially if every move or amend content on their sites she had written the reports from washington. Twitters placement of an exclamation mark and a suggestion that users get the facts about mail in voting after the president s unsubstantiated claims about the corruption of postal ballots have led to the executive order theres no president in American History for so small a number of corporations to control so large a sphere of Human Interaction therefore today abseiling executive order to protect it appalled the free speech rights of the American People however this is new crackdown instead there will be a review of section 230 of the Communications Decency act to prevent this Internet Companies from being sued over content and he is calling for the federal Communications Commission trade commission and state attorneys to look at placing new rules on social Media Companies to control editing he says to protect free speech but the president does not have the Legal Authority to strike down section 230 and he may face resistance from the f.

In general should be arbiters of truth i think thats kind of a dangerous line to get down to in terms of deciding what is what is true and what isnt Civil Liberties advocates warn that private companies have their own commercial priorities and should not become gatekeepers of the truth facebook already censors content in consultation with governments around the world the company has been broken up so it does its utmost to keep lukey authorities happy and bipartisan support for doing just that has been growing if facebook and other platforms have less of a stranglehold over our daily discourse its all good limiting free speech on their sites may not be necessary she had returned see Old Washington and other world news corps and teen measures in the philippines capital manila will be eased from next month after months of a strict coronavirus lockdown that severely depressed economy thats despite 539. 00 new cases being reported on thursday the largest spike since the 1st infection was reported in january in a televised address president were going to tend to try to reassure the public that the vast majority of cases a mild and the death rate is low in south korea the reopening of hundreds of schools has been suspended and some others have been forced to close after a spike in new coronavirus cases 58. 00 new infections have been announced most of them from seoul and linked to an Online Shopping warehouse algis there is rob mcbride is in seoul with this update.
