Social media platforms are preparing for the 2020 u. S. President ial election facebook has unveiled a Pilot Program to monitor hate speech and says it will ban ads that discourage people from voting but there are concerns about the Company Controlling just what people can see as r. T. Scared of morgan explains. Yes the world is a scary place lots of different views and opinions out there but dont worry Silicon Valley is going to keep our mind safe from being contaminated by bad ideas they know whats best for you and me facebook has come out with its 1st major announcement of 2019 and as part of its ongoing civil rights audit its going to have a team of hate speech reviewers civil Rights Groups have been concerned about us mistakenly taking down compton meant to draw attention to and fight discrimination rather than promoted were taking steps to address this including the u. S. Pilot program where some of the people who review content on facebook only focus on hate speech instead of a range of content that can include bullying nudity and misrepresentation and its not just those hateful nasty comments theyre going to protect us from in addition as we have the 2020 us president ial election and the upcoming federal us census approaching they will protect us from inappropriate comments about them so you think the vote is rigged against say Bernie Sanders like it wasnt 2016 well Facebook Says you best keep that analysis to yourself to protect elections we have a team across product Engineering Data science policy legal and operations dedicated full time to these efforts theyre already working to burn ads that discourage people from voting and we expect a phone line as the new policy and its enforcement before the 20000000 teen gubernatorial elections and its not just facebook thats concerned about what we might choose to read other high tech overlords are in on it too even donald trump has noticed he says thats an attempt to insert bias and hurt him in the upcoming election twitter is it is just terrible what they do you saw what happened yesterday with Google Google is totally biased to trying to rig the election thats what we should be looking at now which and the phony which and which is proven do you row and trump does have a point if you will. Twitters new rules they say that they will now be hiding tweets from World Leaders and politicians that have been left online despite violating the rules due to the Public Interest now these tweets will only be available in rare cases. There are certain cases where it may be in the publics interest to have access to certain tweets even if they would otherwise be in violation of our rules on the rare occasions when this happens well place a notice a screen you have to click or tap through before you see the tweet to provide additional context and clarity well also take steps to make sure the tweet is not algorithmically elevated on our service now of course twitter did not mention any particular president but mainstream us media has read between the lines and they are overjoyed jack dorsey lays the groundwork to finally some for trump but will executives that ever pull the trigger twitter one sends a trump through breaking tweets but who will make them harder to find is this the fix to one of twitters most delicate problems trump tweets have gotten so bad that twitter my stunt giving the morning labels so in the lead up to a us president ial election weve got gigantic tech monopolies basically announcing that they will be deciding for us what we are and are not allowed to hear and read and why well theyve got to protect us from election meddling after all and make sure we choose to vote in the right way why do we need a set of self appointed. Normal length a bunch of people from tweeter are to to decide what politicians can or cannot say i think it would be a much much better idea to make the public decide whether they like or dislike or deploy the vision they say. And it isnt just facebook or twitter google is updating a special algorithm in order to fight misinformation after the rise in the seatings in the us. We have developed algorithms that recognize that the bad event to stake in place and that we should increase our notions of authority in groups the way to authority now ranking so that with surface high Quality Content rather than misinformation and the screw to go. Time here the rising death toll from Mass Shootings comes after 14 incidents already this year 72 people have been killed Mass Shootings are classified as those with more than 4 fatal ses however you are a koan again believes the new algorithm will not be objective the risk of course is they we are leaving google to decide what information google is considering to be true information about what information will is considering to be fake news and i think this is very dangerous a particularly because we know as a matter of fact the make up of googles employees is very specific they tend to lean towards 11 part of the police because spoke to rather than another. After 3 days of disputes the e. U. Summit has finally agreed candidates for the blocks top jobs as the nominations are not too many expected lets go live to piece all of us to get more details on this now peter great to see you here bring us up to speed on what e.

Beef in a bid to create 8 we each equipment todays access to save as city office of the president to commission is we have. Nominated for the very 1st time a woman have fun tell him that he said. This wasnt an easy process though. Verba from the European Peoples Party was thought that he would be a shoo in to be the next Commission President not so much then france timmons from the socialists would he be the next one he seemed almost anointed no said particularly. Those from central and Eastern Europe we have seen this be a process busy whereby a lot of people have started to question this this nomination procedure that goes through particularly big voices as well the president of france of money will say he was far from happy with it this spite that despite this rocky lead into these nominations done all the now i guess we can say outgoing European Council president said he was happy with the way it is going.

The British Home Office has sparked outrage after insisting that Nigerian Women traffics to the u. K. To work as prostitutes can enjoy a wealthy life when they return to africa and away called the scandal the home office says it will now we write the advice so deep in ski reports. Its been described as at crisis level the number of Nigerian Women trafficked into prostitution across europe thousands of women and girls every year forced into the sex trade often in a bid to pay off the debt that they think could it being transported to the continent according to the new when these women are sexually exploited theyre raped. They are subject to all forms of Human Rights Violations including torture rape extortion forced labor sexual and labor exploitation amounting to trafficking and contemporary forms of slavery if they were turned home there is also the risk of violent proprieties also the un has described that we have bill attention in full social inclusion of trafficked persons back in nigeria as being particularly challenging however the u. K. Government appears to be painting a very different picture one thats far easier trafficked women who returned from europe wealthy from prostitution enjoy high social economic status and in general are not subject to negative social attitudes on return theyre often held in high regard because they have improved income prospects this is part of an official policy and information gets used by the home Office Decision makers who handle any protection and human rights claims that includes trafficked women who may be seeking asylum thats sparked outrage the issues are faced by the thousands of people who are trying. It from my injury to the u. K. Is one of destitution they are bought by traffickers they have a copy of their free will and imply that on the return back home theyll be welcome back with open arms and complete here for the hard working people it is difficult to return back there are cultural stigmas. Among them is a sufi fighting in which religion plays a big part of it and put aside by your family or even just leaving the Community Also shot in them so these are negative aspects of Africa Society i mean to fully understand there is also a huge issue for those who do return to nigeria and getting access to the support that they desperately need percent of people who are trafficked to europe from nigeria with it and 50 to 500 of them actually face if you felt you felt. Their p. T. S. D. Or Mental Health issues and all the time but me the local authorities and government itself do not have the required for the teachers to teach help such ingrained issues within the population to have these issues its not the 1st time the home office has found itself questions sized over the way that it deals with victims of trafficking lawyers have accused of showing disregard for this safety after it emerged victims were being released from immigration detention back to the addresses where they were enslaved in 2018 it also emerged that under the hostile environment policy victims of modern slavery and Human Trafficking had been jailed in breach of legislation while others had been deported in a statement the Home Office Said victims of modern slavery shouldnt be prosecuted for criminal fast as they were forced to command as a result of exploitation just months after backing a campaign urging Nigerian Women and girls to find jobs at home instead of risking a long. Wife of modern slavery in the u. K. Some might argue that this latest advice that prostitution can essentially equal wealth could actually encourage more women and girls from the jury to try their own luck and risk their own lives. R. T. London. Donald trump has lashed out at iran over it after it exceeded the amount of low enriched uranium is allowed to stockpile under the 2015 nuclear deal amount a little bit as i have been informed iran has crossed the 300 kilogram limit based on his earlier we had announced our plan to exceed the limits of therefore based on our previous announcement we made it clear what we were going to do we see it as a right to disappear way. North to do you know with the airplane with i think theyre playing with fire. The trouble ministration has vowed to apply maximum pressure on iran over its Nuclear Ambitions its also suggested that iran was already producing high amounts of enriched uranium before the deal was signed. The Iranian Foreign minister responded with a simple tweet the one word question seriously he also said the latest enrichment was justified by the fact that america pulled out of the nuclear deal the u. N. Nuclear watchdog has since confirms that iran has breached its limit under the agreement is the latest twist in irans long running difficulties with the west. Irans done with dialogue at least it seems when it comes to washington. The useless sanctions imposed by the desperate u. S. Government on irans Supreme Leader and foreign minister has the effect of blocking the path to diplomacy for years iran has attempted to rebuild relations with the u. S. Without any tangible results in 1988 u. S. Military shot down a radium passenger plane that killed 290 civilians including 66 children and although the incident was considered an accident the pentagon never apologized. I believe that given the operating environment captain rogers acted reasonably and did what his nation expected of him this regrettable accident. Was a byproduct of the iran iraq war. And the past president s are anything to go by to rand shouldnt hold its breath never apologize for the United States of america ever i dont care what the facts are still ready to reconcile iran helped organize the release of u. S. Hostages in lebanon but this goodwill gesture wasnt reciprocated by 995 even harsher u. S. Sanctions were being lined up for iran i am formally announcing my intention to cut all trade and investment with iran the 2nd round of reproach men came shortly after 911 i was. Ready and. As a human as a muslim and as and. Before you again express my deepest sympathy. And be to all the great. Candlelight vigils were held to mourn the victims but the diplomatic progress didnt last long 4 months later. In president bushs axis of evil speech which included iran this is a regime that has something to hide from the civilized world. States like these and their terrorist allies constitute an axis of evil. Finally in 2050 iran signed a deal with the International Community including the us agreeing not to pursue Nuclear Weapons the United States together were International Partners has achieved something the decades of animosity as not a comprehensive long term deal with iran will prevent it from attaining a Nuclear Weapon it was celebrated but shortly dumped a bad deal by donald trump he walked away without any confirmation turned around was in violation so perhaps its no great surprise iran is tired of talking. The United States does not seem to be very much willing to talk to tehran otherwise they wouldve kept the nuclear deal and built up on that at least they could have given to try but theyve not done that they have ruined the former deal and this shows reimpose sanctions to the harshest level possible this shows that they are after. That if the United States removes the sanctions gets back to the nuclear deal to show that it shows the respect towards the action case different until then there couldnt be any kind of talks with the u. S. No matter who is in office. Iran will keep its exemption from opec rules cutting crude production like terrans Oil Ministers announced after talks with the group the Oil Producing organization agreed to extend production cuts for other Member States for another 9 months we spoke with mondo salome an International Oil economist and professor of energy mix at the euro Business School in london he says the deal is a needed boost to our fragile global crude markets. However iran was anxious by the fact that it played nor all agree about inferred it was russia leading the. Producers and saudi arabia the leader of all great agreeable outside opec before they come to the meeting they have. To accept the extension and iran accepted it all drop its production or love to be affected since it is exempt from the production agreement the suspension of the oil that is in the search of the to ensure that Oil Prices Start to rise again bar peculiarly if there is a breakthrough in the trade war between china and the United States. Donald trump says he would like to withdraw all u. S. Troops from afghanistan leaving only enough to deliver what he does strong intelligence i would like to just get out the problem is it just seems to be a lab for terrorists it seems like or the harvard of terrorists i would leave very strong intelligence there you have to watch there are currently around 9000 u. S. Troops in afghanistan over the last 18 years that the u. S. Has lost thousands of personnel and nearly a trillion dollars larry i spoke to author and veteran of the conflict roger hill who argues the rules of engagement should be changed. The rules of engagements are outdated and when i say rules of engagement i mean the law of war the law of Armed Conflict dont necessarily account for an enemy force that doesnt reciprocate them the geneva conventions concerning how we fight in that in how we conduct ourselves and warfare are written under the idea that the enemy will reciprocate how we fight and how we conduct ourselves in combat and the enemy does in fact reciprocate and find thats thats one thing all together but however were fighting in a situation thats unprecedented for example with isis and the enemy. Does not fight according to those conventions and so were trying to force an undue burden on our military Service Members to conduct themselves when there is such a deficit or disparity between how they fight and the enemys forces are fighting for u. N. Finds the u. S. And allies in afghanistan responsible for most of the valiant deaths in the 1st 3 months of this year then the taliban and isis together. Isnt your call to further relax pentagon rules against enemy combatants highly irresponsible i think the the ideal behind why were overseas in iraq and afghanistan is what needs to be questioned i think a lot of times we get fixated on individual instances of civilian casualties and persecuting military Service Members for the collateral thats created however the type of fight that weve been forced to engage in there is a large possibility or risk for inevitable collateral to include civilian casualties so you cant place an undue burden on the Service Members on the ground when that collateral is created and if you do then the people that you need to bring alongside them when you do prosecute them needs to be the politicians in the senior military that sent them over there to begin with i you said how youll book you dont company it was redacted i can you tell us how and why yes so the pentagon has an office a security review. And they claim on their website that they can turn a manuscript around in 2 months and that is to review it for sensitive material and then get back to the authors with their recommendations on what material should be removed or changed they kept dark company for a year in the content that they redacted 95 percent of it according to the experts that we hire to review the manuscript outside of the pentagon was actually on federally sponsored websites thats us going to government federally sponsored by sites. A crowd Funding Campaign has been launched for conservative journalist after he was assaulted at a far left rally in Portland Oregon it quickly raised more than 160000. 00 in donations more than 3 times the target the ante for a rally was staged to counter a far right march in the same city organized by the group crowd boys who were known for promoting violence the opposing groups did eventually meet resulting in multiple clashes and arrests stone of looks at how the gloves are off when is the far left this is the far right what do you think. This is what you can get if you dont have a ticket to ride the leftists train for this conservative journalist it went from threats to violence pretty quickly it seems the attack on him had been planned for them he wasnt a journalist he wasnt an equal. Into an islam of a white supremacist fascist because before trying to cover their rally no had covered one from the other side of the political spectrum and in those the far right activist and blogger who rides bogus skip this is the incite hatred against muslims hes not a journalist and many capacity whatever your opinions on the far right activist getting punched in the face are when hes described his actual profession correctly until you 1st jigsaw puzzle is complete and if youre a piece that doesnt fit youre just not welcome. I believe. We believe survivors there are chanting that was senator ted cruz and his wife heidi being forced out of a washington restaurant by left wing activists in america in the u. K. And the rest of europe its a discourse in which fists and kicks speak louder than words any opponent is painted evil regardless of whether or not they have any history of engaging in far right violence and if the left can deal with you physically they will discriminate against you as happened to White House Press secretary Sarah Sanders last year when she was refused service at a restaurant they will publicly ostracize you like when eric trump was harassed when eating out the left will even track you down and come knocking on your door
