Al jazeera well joining us by phone now is Allison Herrera shes a journalist on the streets that in minneapolis alison little ready seen a bill thats a security that had a whats the mood like on the streets this morning. People are sad people are grieving people are angry i just i walked around theres a scene near the Precinct Police building that burned down to the ground and to the shops and businesses that are just nearby i spoke with a woman who she works at the communications its. A native nonprofit for indigenous you think she told me that she was there until 230 last night at 2 30 in the morning this morning there was no Police Presence or National Guard presence protecting the buildings she told me that the only protection that they had was the American Indian movement patrol thats a kind of a civilian led patrol led by Indigenous People here in the twin cities and they were guards guarding the building and they were trying to get the city to she told me that they were trying to get the city to shut the gas and then she said there are 5 am this morning the fire started theres also a Little Indian restaurant just down there that locally owned i spoke with the owners of this dry cleaning business just kitty corner there they were cleaning up the post office is completely gutted and burnt. I want to theres a little Apartment Building 8 like that thats a serious its not a senior apartment with Senior Living but im a lot of older residents live there and they were afraid they said that they heard shots and got you know they heard. They heard the building catch on fire and what that sounded like shots 0 so i dont know if any shots were fired but he said it just sounded like a huge boom and just i talked to the couple people who grew up. In this neighborhood and. They were just grief stricken with what they heard and what. Allison weve now seen 3 nights of protests and obviously an enormous amount of violence last night particularly weve seen those pictures this morning of those fires still burning is there a fear that there will be more violence today potentially are people going to be gathering again do you think. I havent heard of any gathering. Places today but are you im sure i wouldnt doubt that there are going to be more potent than gathering. But it doesnt im not sure about this area. That. They said that theyve been out and or this morning when i talked i talked to one of the National Guard members and i asked him if they had any what the plan was to be got that in the area and he said that they were just taking it minute by minute. And so. 9 im not sure i dont know if theres going to be any more protests but i would imagine i think just the mood around here i would imagine that there would be some certainly the youngest been very widespread indeed Alison Herrera on the streets of minneapolis thank you very much alison well lets take a look at what President Trump has been tweeting about these protests 1st warning the minneapolis mayor to get his act together and then rising that these thugs are dishonoring the memory of george floyd and he wont let that happen trump says he told the minnesota governor that the military is with him all the way any difficulty and we will assume control but when the looting starts the shooting stops well twitter has hidden trumps tweet saying it violates the rules about glorifying violence however it still can be viewed if you click into it with saying that it may be in the publics interests for it to remain accessible well lets get more on this with our White House Correspondent can be help that can be what weve been hearing from the white house this morning. Well the white house has in fact retreated this tweet kind of in defiance of the actions taken by twitter as you point out flagging the president s tweets or at least of securing it without 1st requiring users to read a warning notice so what the white house essentially responded by tweeting this tweet that has been flagged by twitter from the white house official account because the in essence the argument being made by this white house is that this is something thats in the Public Interest the lying that is really incendiary that seems to be the point of contention between twitter and this white house any difficulty and we will assume control but when the looting starts the shooting starts why is this a problem and why is this so incendiary lets put it in a little Historical Context it goes back to the race riots of the 1960 s. Here in the United States and particularly the words of one miami police chief going back to 967 he uttered those very words when he was referring to a crackdown on what he called slum hoodlum sent of course this understandably inflame tensions and thats the fear that by the u. S. President using the same words thats whats happening once again twitter feels this way but we should point out that the president s supporters feel that this is another example of social media and specifically twitter which is of course a very Popular Platform particularly for this president this is twitter taking sides essentially to embarrass the president in an Election Year now we should point out that the American Civil Liberties union has just weighed in on this controversy in the last few moments putting out a statement calling the words of the president hypocritical immoral and illegal a gross disregard for racial terror they also responded in their statement to his call for sending in the National Guard to quash this violence saying that this sensually the Law Enforcement in minneapolis and in that state. If minnesota should ignore the president we call the National Guard and Law Enforcement to comply with the law and not President Trump pretty astounding to see these statements in writing not just from the president but also the response from one of the most powerful sort of groups that advocates for those that feel that they have been disenfranchised who have been hurt by racial violence now speaking out so strongly indeed can we help that there are White House Correspondent thank you very much kimberly.

Today is an historic day for democracy and for me its an honor is deputy Prime Minister of this government to announce a new social right the one in spain a minimum bartle income i think we can qualify it as the greatest advance in social rights in spain since the approval of the dependency law in 2006 the governments intention is to reach the maximum number of people in need but over 2000000 spaniards who work in this economy pay no tax or working without a contract will be left out of this initiative if theres a Silver Lining to cover it 19. 00 clout is that many spaniards one have to depend on the charity of strangers.

As the world fights to corona time to make learning more about this every day its a new year new joining our Global Community its up to us on how we come to be able to fight on sharing your questions can i just recently directly thats coming on on you tube as youre saying im concerned about the front line phone thats a great question but keeping you up to date. For the stream on 000. Hello again im mr lets remind you of our top stories this hour spains government is due to announce a new basic income scheme for a 1000000 poor families this imposed latest measure to help spaniards struggling to make ends meet because of the coronavirus condemning. Police in the u. S. City of minneapolis are trying to regain control of the another night of protest against the death of an unarmed black man in the National Guard has been called in and the mayor has declared a 72 hour state of emergency while president of trump has tweeted about those protests saying hes prepared to have the federal government assume control trump wrote when the looting starts the shooting starts to as it hasnt hidden that tweet behind a warning saying it violates its rules about glorifying violence. While staying with that controversial tweet from the u. S. President and earlier i spoke to scott mucous hes a professor of american studies at the university of birmingham he says trumps message is not just provocative its violence in its own way. It is for that reason that twitter. Whom trump has been waging war on all week ive the tweets as you noted and it allowing re tweets or. Replies now if donald trump was seriously concerned about trying to step back from what we have seen in many and minneapolis over the last few nights and them in cities like google in kentucky that he might support chicken fry the minneapolis mayor who has called for charges to be brought in this case against the officer who is accused of killing george floyd he might support take reprised call for protesters to stop the burning to stop looting and to start a dialogue on a way forward the troops interest is not in trying to make pace trump his interest is twofold here 1st is of course to look like he can come in and save the situation by making threats and secondly because this is tied to something that started earlier this week which is when social media including twitter began flagging his dissent from ation about postal voting being fraudulent that is a lie but trump is using it to possibly undermine the members elections so trump in other words is politicizing exploiting this situation with potentially dangerous consequences look i mean racial violence and indeed. Police violence against unarmed africanamericans is not new its been around for decades i grew up with it in the American South what we have seen is in areas far beyond the south think about los angeles in the early 1990 s. Think about in recent years the killing of our north africanamericans from missouri to new york to South Carolina which led to the black flies Matter Movement this is an ongoing issue which needs discussions of Justice Needs discussions of trying to protect those who are unarmed while at the same time trying to ensure that we have responsible Security Forces in america the difference now in 2020 is that we dont have a man in the white house a like a barack obama who might support those efforts weve got a man whos exploiting potentially inflaming an already tense situation.
