A black man in Police Custody minneapolis has seen a 2nd night of demonstrations and looting with the National Guard called in to contain the chaos the officers involved in the death have been fired and a federal investigation is underway. And condemnation of china after approves a new security law in hong kong the decision is likely to further inflame tensions in the territory where protests have escalated this week. Im good good to have you with us its the power of the president s pen versus the power of social media donald trump has signed an executive order that aims to make social Media Companies liable for what users say on their platforms much like newspapers are trump signed the order after twitter fact checked his tweets about. Mail in voting earlier this week trump accuses twitter of trying to stifle free speech and influence the outcome of this years president ial election twitter says the tweets violated its rules. Im joined now by d. Ws Washington Bureau chief alexandra phenomena alexandra lets get into this what Legal Protections does trump want to remove with this executive order well president said today that hes just defending free speech in america and he accused the lot social media platforms of having unchecked power to restrict to censor and to alter virtually any form of communication between part private citizens and large public audiences and his executive order its purpose is to cut tail the power of the social Media Companies by calling on regulator us agencies to take a hard look at the existing protections that shield those companies from lawsuits that basically shield them from being held responsible for their contents that is posted on their platforms try to help me understand this because trump who has 80000000 twitter followers has benefited from these current internet internet speech laws that prevents companies from from lawsuits from content that people like President Trump post so how could this move possibly backfire on him. Well william youre right the logic behind this executive order is intriguing and thats actually whats trump always wanted and wants to publish his posts whatever he has to say without any limitations even though. They are wrong or false statements or derogatory comments and his executive order attacks the very legal provision that allows him to do so with impunity so its sort of difficult to understand but we have to say that this move today the signing of this executive order placed to his space because by starting this battle this war with Silicon Valley he is doing something that will be very popular with his supporters and he can say look there is a conspiracy there are large media groups that dont want me to get reelected there is only one voice that you need to trust it is my voice so politically speaking maybe a short term win for him but long term legally speaking it could be a long path for any of these kind of laws to really be changed to take effect what happens next well this executive order is on shaky legal grounds no doubt about that plenty of lawyers have already said that that it could be even unconstitutional that the president doesnt have the own soroti to change the legislation that was passed by the u. S. Congress so what we are going to see is that it is executive order its going to be challenge and presumably struck down by the courts all right alexander phenomena in washington thank you very much.

K. U. S. A strong and canada was swift to condemn the move we are deeply troubled about this that we put out a joint statement and the decision now lies with china but if it follows through on this legislation and implemented it would clearly violate the autonomy of the people of hong kong. They have also been closed in germany to reprimand china over the incident obvious that we just cannot sit down and watch the National Wall being brought by the Chinese Government and its obvious that the implementation of the National Security legislation would exactly bring this so its obvious that the European Countries have to come together as soon as possible to talk about consequences.
