Start watching the whole us. To. Get the. Real thing we. Need to do. What they like you know that i got. With. This. Because. Well them im going to watch a robot and im to have a. Man they do you brought this story to my attention this morning and its a doozy to think that like yours is British Intelligence officer that or in this part time but also theres like major executive about a tauriel of twitter thats thats incredible and you know apparently mcmillans involvement with the something some group was made public what he disclosed to of all places on his linked in page. Absolutely insane the british army by the way did the client to disclose anything about mcmillans duties with the 77th grade or say whether or not you know twitter helps with it or are involved in it theyre basically saying you know we know nothing we can say anything like nothing at all usual the usual. Herbal. Confirmation or didnt write well twitter responded a spokesperson from twitter had told the independent that it was quote an open neutral and dependent service and matter of you mr mcmillan. Service as an army reserve found no violations of its policies they went on to declare saying employees who pursue extra will volunteer opportunities are encouraged to do so provided theyre compliant with our Company Guidelines i find it a little hard to believe that the Company Divide guidelines. Say you can be working for the countrys military while youre. Making decisions like what sites. Entities. And are allowed to use the site and which arent and the idea that youre an editorial meeting youre sort of shaping this story its a little hard to believe. That theres that. I mean especially with your figure that works in a unit thats designed to work in information to control. Well that is the difficult they are about a lot of things whether its taking away. Because youre part of a certain News Organization or what have you or political organization. Its a little weird twitter is very particular about. I mean they dont care about rape and Death Threats when they come to women but theyre but they got this. Specialist. Who clearly is not doing any of his job it is deciding who gets to be on there. And they say its not. The accepted one. Speaking of folks who got exercise from twitter. When asked about the controversy asked him earlier today to make adams the executive director for the ron paul is to peace and prosperity he told me and i was here watching the hawks but considering twitters relentless assaults on users opposed to the dominant United StatesUnited KingdomForeign Policy narrative it is hardly surprising to learn that one of its Senior Executives is in reality a government Information Warfare specialist he went on to say twitter continues to ban users such as myself in blatant violation of their own terms of service the company should be held to account for its fraudulent Business Practices and for acting as a de facto arm of western government propaganda to underline mince words and rules about this. I wouldnt i wouldnt go as far as. To say that theyre a de facto arm of western government. Because im not really sure turn. Them into their sure. I mean theres a 1000000 people going i mean you probably should say that or you probably should weve had researchers on the show talking about how this was the paris review back in during vietnam and the idea of pushing people away from communism socialism i mean. Its kind of. It really is i think. Theres only going to be one narrative of but i dont know if its somebody coming down from up on high saying like only push this narrative its more that kind of like universal culturally accepted narrative when youre living in the western governments kind of thing and its man its i just you would think twitter would be smart enough to avoid p. R. Why would you think twitter was smart enough to not hire government propagandists and information agents who literally want to tell people how to trick people into thinking a certain way air voting a certain way. Way too much credit im not sure if i had any of that and thats where i think i have the sort of i have to laugh that is not twitter. Really youre shocked dont be shocked dont not so surprise. Coffee tea or micro plastics this is a choice some consumers made when they opted for the kind of extra bag that uses not for the bags that youre saving a tree there well are the americas and spills the t. A micro plastics. If youre accusing one of those fancy nylon tea bags the billions of micro plastics are seeping into every cup of tea you drink and while we do consume plastic and other products researchers say this one tops the list around 2006 the island was thought to be a fancier alternative to paper without the soggy remains well it turns out there is indeed a trade off according to a new study out of Mcgill University in montreal once a single plastic bag is at a temperature of 203. 00 degrees fahrenheit 11600000000. 00 micro plastics and 3. 00 a 1000000000 plastics are released into the cup now nano plastics are even smaller than a piece of hair possibly small enough to cross cells and permeate the body in the study scientists fed the plastics to microscopic water fleas the study author said they swim crazily in the exposure to the plastics really stressed them out their exoskeletons became ballooned leaving researchers wanting to study the topic further the World Wide Fund for nature estimates the average person consumes 5 grams of plastic a week the equivalent size of a credit card and based on that Research Experts say we consume more than 260 grams of plastic each year but this new study alludes to the fact that we need be consuming even more plastic than we thought and the effects of micro plastics on the body have not been fully study experts say its easy to mistake nylon tea bags for silk ones if youre unsure Health Professionals say the best way to drink your tea is through the loose leaves. With a reusable strainer in los angeles and sweet r t. W blood dove into the micro plastic scourge on the show a way back before they were actually banned. From the day when it was little micro b. Its that were in everything you know all our face crabs and everything i make or beads are today said to make or be as they went. And then they realize oh wait theres a bunch of other stuff does it. Know its the last say if its plastic youre going to get micro plastic from make youre going to get nano plastic from it and whoever tells you that there is magical plastic that can break down into biodegradable composable it aint out there it isnt out there if its real plastic if its breaking down its breaking and in this Something Like that its mike or a nano plastics literally only thing you can do this is a Petroleum Product so why would you want to product made from oil see look at us and this is the thing you so the idea was you were buying these much more expensive now understand that these kinds of teabags these nylon ones make up a very small percentage of actual tea drinkers most they say peter f. Coogee was a president the Tea Association of the United States of america very important my ancestors threw in the harbor and started fights. But even they got a plastic tea bags anyway only about 5 percent of them are these nylon the idea was that oh theres no paper or theres no cotton or theres nothing that will come out and i had rather eat tree is in the wood and paper the man out. In the middle plastic is everywhere and you know like the taj was cussing at the end where its like you know using loose leaf tea in the morning disposable packaging is actually healthier alternative for people who are honestly and heres a good thing anything you buy in bulk not in a single use anything is going to be cheaper its also mentally you can buy a better quality tea that doesnt have pesticides it doesnt have these things thats maybe better for you and maybe your favorite flavor is someone who makes you happy go spend you can spend a little more are not like you could literally if you buy it now were safe which most things do its actually cheaper per ounce monumentally cheaper and you only have to use the one can use a french press theres many ways to make up for my fans in the u. K. But not with a lousy tea bag just.

Tears running out of the courtroom earlier today after judge tammy can read the verdict finding former dallas officer amber geiger guilty of murdering her neighbor botham john this 2800 shooting sparked outrage across the nation as many people couldnt comprehend how someone could be killed and their very own apartment on the night of the shooting giger claims she was exhausted from work and parked on the wrong floor she then proceeded to walk toward an apartment that she thought was her she says she heard someone moving around in the apartment when too much to enter she then saw a silhouette of a figure and opened fire the victim was her 26 year old neighbor who was sitting on his couch watching his t.

Not by it taking less than 2 days to find her guilty attorney as lee merritt who represents johns family says botham did not deserve to die and his family deserves justice many activists and followers of this case agree the jury made the right decision reporting in washington ashley banks our team. Its not just for us from hong kong that have seen their share of protests this year as the island nation of haiti saw thousands take to the streets once again over the weekend thanks to years of government fraud and abuse an economic crisis with a deepening food and fuel shortages currently gripping the country heres our 2 murders john hubby with the story. Violence and anger in Port Au Prince haiti as rioters move it in ransacked businesses along a busy commercial district the most savage in the citys airport and organize it destroying a Police Station and setting at least 2 buildings on fire the country has been gripped with chaos as protesters demand the resignation of the haitian president job no moyse and some fear that the violence only worsens as at least 4 people have been reportedly killed so far. To spend and that has to think we might be prepared even if we have to take the advice weve picked to get them out of discussions haitis president hasnt been seen publicly since last week when he called for calm and offered to form a unity government haitis government has been without a Prime Minister because of moyses failed attempts to appoint someone to the position hes facing corruption allegations as the country with leads and an economic free my inclination Financial Management will include shortages and widespread Power Outages will take this happen livered fuel to the island but the political and social turmoil has distracted Distribution Efforts police have used tear gas to try and push protesters on rioters back but are struggling to contain the thousands of people hitting the streets. Hes demanding change. Joining us now to discuss the latest demonstrations in haiti and the story behind them as brian todd cannon one of the board of directors at the institute for justice and democracy and haiti thank you for joining us brian. Thank you for having me brian the protesters are now pushing for the resignation of the u. S. Backed haitian president. What are is this a real is his removal real possibility at this point could we see that in the future. Or we certainly cant if you just look at the president will wheezes support within haiti and balance that against the opposition to him he would have been gone already we would see allowing him to cling to power is as you mentioned u. S. Support and support from other members of the International Community but this is really a regime that is there not because haitians will tolerate it but its because the International Community is is propping it up. But recently the United NationsGeneral Assembly president weighs have called for the formation of what he called a National Unity government what are what are the issues that this proposal and would it solve any of haitis main you know problems that are that theyre facing right at the moment. The president always has made a series of offers of things over the last 18 months but theyve been mostly rejected because nobody trusts him you know just as an example iii named the new government recently and said this government was going to be different in order to get that government ratified he paid opposition senators 100000. 00 for their votes this is a country where people are dying because they cant get basic health care cant get food and the government was paying 100000. 00 apiece for the boats so present we says very little credibility hes done nothing to to allow any of the accountability mechanisms in the country to work hes continuing to to come. The the governance of the country so at this point there is really no faith that hes that he will that he will negotiate in a way that will lead haiti out of the crisis so you have a extremely broad based movement everyone from Political Parties to to the churches to business groups who are saying no we cant say we cant move forward unless president will we sleeves and nobody is is under the illusion that him leaving is going to automatically change things people keep insisting that there are fundamental problems with haiti theres fundamental problems with the economic structure this fundamental problems with the with the political structure and all those need to be corrected in order for haiti to really get out of this crisis you know its interesting because when you would you look at the at least you know western news and their coverage of this you know everythings kind of referred to remember referred to earlier as you know protests and demonstrations and things of that nature but what i you know when you see things on the ground and you hear these people in the streets who are there and you know who are taking part in these you know it almost sounds more like a revolution than a protest in a demonstration at this point are we it is a revolution at this point or will we hit that point in the near future. Or certainly headed there president kennedy famously said that those who make peaceful revolution impossible make violent revolution inevitable and i think the haitian government and its International Supporters are trying their best to prove president kennedy right theyve blocked off all of the normal avenues for peaceful evolution and peaceful change leaving them with with no choice in fact any see stories in the news of burning tires and burning Police Stations. Those those are violent but in fact not many people have been killed that most of those who have been killed have been killed by the police so that the protests have still remained amazingly nonviolent but i dont think that that kid. That will last forever and eventually haitian people will be pushed to the breaking point is there anyone involved in the protests or are there any political groups down there the protesters kind of are in support of or are looking to was like ok these could be the people that could potentially form the right kind of government the government for the people down there that they want not one kind of you know installed by the United States or helped along by the United States and and you know things like that is there anyone down there right now is kind of filling that role or who could in the future. Theres certainly people who could i dont think theres anybody right now whos broadly identified as as able to fill that role one of the one of the challenge is is that there have been lots of people who are trying to control this process for their own aims their people who are politicians who have a long record of of positions that arent really helping haitis democracy but theyre jumping on the bandwagon and hoping to take control so that when this comes out theyll be in charge still have the same unfair grinding system with them in charge and theres obviously a lot of suspicion among the haitian people for that and you still dont really have any one organization that that is standing out as a as a front runner but there are a lot of organizations that are sitting down talking and there are a lot of people had plans on how we get out and i think what most people are saying is that once president always leaves then you need some kind of a Transitional Government thats not going to allow one party or one person to take control but will have some kind of a broad broad based power structure that isnt going to make any major any any decisions immediately but its going to kind of guide the country through a process where it can work can establish the foundation for moving forward so this is going to be a long process i dont think its going to be an automatic transition to to any one person but i think that there is a great. Opportunity if this process is supported by people in haiti and outside of haiti for haiti to see a better day. You know it yeah it is really interesting and i hope that that happens because i mean in the countries this country has suffered for a long period of time and we just quickly like give us a scope of like what you know these people have gone through not only with their government but we also have you know the issues of the natural disasters i mean the kind of getting the trifecta the whole the bad politics from economic to government and then to the lack of real climate politics and dealing with those issues of. Yeah the answer that i could be talking about for 100 hours i had to give but you know some of the highlights i mean hes had 33 coup detat many of them have been have been supported by the International Community basically haitis been punished since 1804 because it was the 1st free nation of its the only nation that came from a slave revolt and it came into being as during a time when the powers of the world were slave owning countries and has been punished ever since its been for over 100 years there was an independence debt that was forced to pay back to haiti that prevented it from being able to develop its economy you go up to the u. S. Marine occupation the longest u. S. Marine occupation of anywhere was in haiti in the early part of the 20th century and going right up to to 19th to 2004 when when the u. S. Overthrew haitis elected lava last government. It keeps going up and you have time after time where were haiti has been deprived of a chance to be to be prosperous and then you add in vulnerability to to tropical storms and the haiti has not been hit yet this Hurricane Season good earthquakes everything that but all those are complete thank goodness at this point the one constant how do we look at the start of a bank you so much for coming on today and its good that haiti hasnt had to deal with that element of the of the major element so far brian can come in board of directors of the institute of justice for the ma. Thank you as always for coming on. And good news u. S. Scientists at a Company Called grail teamed up with researchers in the Dana Farber Cancer institute and found a new way to effectively test for more than 20 kinds of cancer in fact the test which looks for abnormal patterns of something called methylation in the d. N. A. A sign of cancer was able to correctly detect cancer 99. 4 percent of the time in addition they found that the test could accurately detect the source of the cancer 90 percent of the time the test was tested more than 3500 times on over 1500 Cancer Patients and 2000 patients without cancer in time doctors and researchers says fact that this test and others like it could mean the majority of cancer diagnoses is made by stage one or 2 and creasing survival rates exponentially fantastic mood will a good place to end their show they are right that is our show everybody remember everyone in this world we are told that we are loved enough so i tell you all i love you i am tired robot on top of the list keep on watching all those hawks out there are great day and night. 2014 a bloody revolution. The demonstrations going from being relatively peaceful political protests to be creasing the violent revolution is always spontaneous or is it you still hear it but i mean your list put the video to me in the new bill is that i know you believe it or the former ukrainian president recalls the events of 2014. Those who took. His invested over 5000000000. 00 to assist ukraine in these another girl when she. Were secure and prosperous and democratic. Politicians do something to. Put themselves on the line. To get accepted or rejected. So when you want to be president. Or some want to be. The 2 going to be the person was like before 3 in the morning cant be good. Im interested always in the waters of our. First sit. Down indian by north and so many people because they call freedom is so good that even such a bad club be sending. Im not guilty let me be a good god on the field to find the next guy. Looked up live up to any human being done be in philosophy that god she wouldnt dump on the attempt. To deflect some of the c. E. O. Say who the deflection board is comfortable saying. That is going to be better than i got up to many observers. That years and years ago youre going to see a lot about. That that you can bank on youve got to let them look up a. Long long while and he knows along the bottom theres a playlist which alone can shrink not only. Handle a new person and lead to any 100 gandhi and. Oh and gundy. Sees christ even if you know you mock you and even join you.
