A donor to the whole world. Price for the every minute im on the show. Going cold turkey, americans are worried covert restrictions will spoil the thanksgiving celebrations for good morning to you. Thanks for joining us here on r. T. International facebook has made what it calls a temporary emergency change to its algorithm. In response to the u. S. Election says its trying to eradicate misinformation. But while not called a fact appears to be giving a preference to content thats pro joe biden. It is done of exploits Election Fraud 2 words you would never associate with the United States of america. Now a phrase that could send fists flying in the country, allegations of cheating have also outgrown the issue of a vote recount, as some republicans claim theyve been called and elsewhere too on social media. You know, the people that, that i hear from, of course, believe that conservatives were wrongfully being silenced, while those on the left that were given basically a free rein of your platforms. And one of the points of contention that is often brought up is that you do recruit, have a leave from california, which leads to your Employee Base skewing quite heavily to the left. At 1st glance, the allegations that facebooks nonpartisan algorithms have been tweaked to give biden an upper hand dont seem too old after all, biden, and his team have been rather unflattering towards the platform to say the least. I have never been a big fan of facebook as you probably know. Ive never been a big zuckerberg fan, but the latest report suggests that this could all be smoke and mirrors, and that facebook is already buttering up the new white house landlord from promoting content which rubber stamps joe bidens talking points to secretly screwing the traffic for publications by nonmainstream and pro republican outlets, it resulted in a spike in visibility for big mainstream publishers like c. N. N. The New York Times and National Public radio, while posts from highly engaged hyper partisan pages such as breitbart and occupy democrats became less visible. Facebook denies any bias explaining its strives to achieve balance to the best of its ability, but some actions speak louder, suggesting a mutual affection. The supposedly facebook loving joe biden doesnt seem to have a problem hiring from their roster. Bidens Deputy Communications director also seems to have had a change of heart and deleted tweets, giving facebook a dressing down big tech, and he had permission this country. They control who sees what they censor. Conservative news, big tech is been working towards this for 4 years. And it will be bored to ensure that joe biden went their party is the democrat party. And so of course, joe biden is going to be stacking his Transition Team with members of the Silicon Valley cobol. So of course, youre going to see former c. E. O. s from facebook from, from other technology companies. They are, these are joe bidens people. Big tech is for the democrats and look what weve got coming up now. Weve got 4 years of the media, which is going to be puppy dogs. What are your people . Nothing to criticize here. Were already gearing up in this country for a return to the swamp, as we call it a return to normalcy. Return to warmongering, a return to big pharma, a return to all these industries that love the democrats that love globalization, and they got their man in which joe biden previously, facebook has repeatedly found itself in hot water with the u. S. Authorities. It seems this time the giant has finally learned its lesson and is preemptively raising the hand that could very soon be feeding it president on a term has pardoned his foremost top security advisor, Michael Flynn, who was caught up in the federal probe into discredited claims of trump, russia collusion several years ago, elim open explains the long drawn out legal battle surrounding donald trumps, former National Security advisor appears to be coming to an end. Michael flynn, formerly trumps National Security advisor and a figure within the u. S. Military had pled guilty to charges that he lied to the f. B. I. However, the white house has issued this statement along with a full pardon for Michael Flynn. The president is pardon general flynn, because he should never been prosecuted. An independent review of general flynns case by the department of justice conducted by respected career professionals supports this conclusion. In fact, the department of justice has firmly concluded that the charges against your move, flynn should be dropped. This full pardon achieves that objective. Finally, bringing to an end the relentless pocs exam pursuit of an innocent man flynn his. His interview from the f. B. I. Stemmed from the Robert Mueller special counsel investigation into allegations of trumped russia. Collusion. It was alleged that Michael Flynn essentially misled the f. B. I. About russian contacts. However, at this point, we did see previously moves from the u. S. Department of justice indicating that they might be dropping charges. They said that the interview that was conducted with Michael Flynn was untethered and unnecessary in regards to the f. B. I. s counterintelligence investigation. The deal g. s not persuaded that the jury 24th 2017 interview was conducted with a legitimate investigative basis and therefore does not believe mr. Flynn statements were material, even if untrue. Moreover, we do not believe that the government can prove either the relevant full statements where there materiality beyond a reasonable doubt. Now the judge overseeing the case chose to continue proceedings against Michael Flynn, despite what the department of justice said. However, at this point, the president ial pardon makes Michael Flynn a free man, joe biden will not be able to bring new charges against Michael Flynn when he takes office. Now this pardon for Michael Flynn is just one of many pardons that have been promised by donald trump. As he prepares to leave office at this point, the transition process and which the Biden Administration will be moving into the executive branch has already begun. I think there are they been dead again general previously from the Obama Administration to the specially as a result of unclassified recently on classified documents. It was purely a set up for general and one to get back to general flynn and to hamper the trumpet ministration. General should never have been charged and he been given harm of heart financial burden and everything else. As a result of this was never about the case turned to the United Kingdom now where the architect behind the freedom of information act is calling for a probe into what he bruns, an orwellian units within the government. After a new report disclosed its intentionally obstructing the release of potentially sensitive data, has the details. A storm is brewing in the u. K. About freedom of information with a new government. A new report by open democracy describes a socalled wm units called the clearinghouse that obstructs media requests and even blackness. Journalists Clearing House shares with a range of whitehall departments, a daily update containing the names of journalists and complainants, the requests they have submitted and advice on how referring to providence should respond. The clearinghouse has also reviewed drafts and signed off on departmental responses to freedom of information requests passed in the year 2000. The freedom of information act was meant to open up the workings of government requests for information were supposed to remain anonymous or applicant blind. And in theory could help keep your fortys in check. But according to this report, the cabinet now rejects more requests than ever. When the law was 1st introduced, i think they didnt realize how successful it would be and what kind of information it would unravel. Because of course, there have been cases where information has had to be ducked out. And the idea was that, you know, in a bit to show more transparency, people wouldnt have to go back so many years and find things that would be relevant many years later, once that became apparent. And once the requests of started to flood in and exposed minister that a step in office that became problematic. And therefore, some of the government mandarins have found ways of sort of perhaps not breaking the law as such that obviously countering it in order not to release the information. What happens with government officials is that they realize that journalism is very much a time sensitive activity. And therefore, while were covering news, we need the information very rapidly within a few days. Sometimes even a few hours weve moved on should next piece of information and that information that was try to get it requested is no longer relevant. So the key it is to very much to lay into where the journalist and, and till that information is no longer necessary. And theres no point in publishing it. Number 10 says the consideration of foia requests remains applicant and motive behind. And the Clearing House unit remains fully compliant, but there is growing criticism within westminster labor peer lord clarke of when dimia was instrumental in the act becoming law and is now calling for a government investigation into the controversial unit. Along with politicians across the spectrum. This Clearing House is certainly against the spirit of that act, and probably the letter to ministers should explain to the house of commons precisely why they continue with this set up in view of the fact that it is contradictory to the whole purpose of freedom of information this is extremely troubling if the Cabinet Office is interfering in f. Or i requests and seeking to work around their requirements of the act by a blacklist enjoying this, it is a grave threat to our values and transparency in our democracy. Yet this storm over the law has been brewing since it was past 20 years ago under tony blairs government. After the then Prime Minister discovered that governments couldnt discuss any issues with a reasonable level of confidentiality. And freedom of information was mainly used by journalists coast himself. You idiot, you naive, foolish, irresponsible nincompoop. There was really no description of stupidity no matter how livid that is adequate. I quake in the imbecility of it. For political leaders is like saying to someone whos hitting you over the head with a stick. Try this instead. And handing him a mallet. Now it seems, Boris Johnsons government is also trying to put the lid back on the pandoras box. That the British Public are legally entitled to open. Partridge party, loved football fans around the world have been mourning the death of football legend Diego Maradona. They arent died of a heart attack. At the age of 60, he was famous for his outstanding playing ability and colorful character on and off the field, italian city of naples, whose team arizona helped win the league for the 1st time in their history. People gathered in the streets to mark his passing or plans were announced to rename the local stadium in his honor and argentina. People be gathering to pay their respects. The countrys president s declared 3 days of national mourning. And heres what people in buenos aires have been saying, i never thought this day would come my 1st, or at least hes the greatest of all the masters of football. The one who gave us everything. Do you go . Amanda maradona means everything. The whole world has to do know today the whole world price for the younger man. You know, there were someone to come and tell me thats all i, thats all i ask, Diego Merritt daughter was, he wrote many a villain to some devil that played football like an angel. He will be sadly missed as a character. But he certainly lived a life 60 years old, fit more into those 60 years than most people would do in a 100 lifetimes. He started his football in korea at home in argentina, but it was in europe that he really burst on to the scene in 1982. He signed for barcelona for a day in world wreck or fee of just over 7. 00 and a half 1000000. 00. He spent a short time with the council on giants his time. There was marred by fights on the picture off the pitch with the clubs management with the clubs owners hierarchy directors, anybody who he could fight with. He pretty much did. He did win 2 trophies while he was there as well. But he later moved on to now fully italy where put away get a world record for this time for just over 10000000. 00. That 1986 to 87 season, much when the Italian League for not policed by himself. He played in a team that was a very good team, but it certainly, but i dont think its for think its fair to say wasnt the greatest team in italy at that time, but him being a not sight. He was the talisman. He was the mecurio player, he scored the goals, he made the goals he put the tackles in. He raised the spirits and he drug thats not police. Cite to the League Championship in 87, they won it again in the 8990 season as well. While he was there, he picked up also some european success as well with the usa for cope. It started out his International Career in the 82. 00 world cup. It wasnt a great one for argentina and sell found himself pretty much more get by the italians during a group stage much that was as far as tina went in 82. 00 in spain, but it was 86. 00 in mexico. That was mara, donnas world cup, coming from england myself. Its the quarter final against england that comes to mind immediately. He scored one goal. Its known as the hand of god, wary. Well, he put it in the back of the net with his hand, but his 2nd goal in not to want victory against england goes down as the greatest officially. The greatest goal of the 20th century. As maradona picked the ball up inside his own half beat 5 england players before dropping a shoulder and leaving the england goalkeeper Peter Shilton lying on his back side as he slotted it into the into the goal in the final against west germany. Mara dollar was marked heavily through that game. It would still known in german football journalism shaw in german football journalism shorthand as maradona marking what they did there. They had 2 people on him at all times, trying to stop him from playing. One of those was low to mattel. Yes. Regarded as probably the best defender of his generation. Marathoner was still able to get that half a metre of space and play through the ball that resulted in the winning goal. As argentina won 32 in not world cup his International Career came to an end in 1900 for the world cup in the United States, where under a cloud of some sought see tested positive for a performance enhancing drug and was sent home into scrapes, he maintained up until the day he died, that it was, it was taken by accident that it was something that was in a supplement that was different in the United States than it was in argentina. But he did have his problems with Substance Abuse from the 1980s. He struggled with cocaine addiction, also troubles with alcohol as well, and it saw him leave napoli, the club where he was loved idolized, and is still viewed with religious zeal in the Southern Italian city. He left there under a cloud in 1992 after a time on the sidelines following a ban for testing positive for cocaine, you have to remember, he straddled a big change in football. At the time he started. The way to deal with him was to basically kick him and stop him from, from playing. He was able to get around that and still when he then moved into the time in the ninetys where real professionalism came into World Football in the game. Start the change. What, how would he stand up against a messy or an alto in todays game . I still think Diego Maradona would have had the ways to beat the tributes have been pouring in from around the world of football. We heard from former realm a good present from encounter and he says that those who play with maradona believed that he could win matches all by himself. I saw him many matches here in spain. When he worked in the league for 2 years with barcelona. It will work in the best time for him, but this by the out of the play, the very, very good match. He led to the idea that we were, we were in a very, very incredible player. And remember, none of those. What with the reality they are didnt hear what our coach and i were playing here. Worf in that match in mexico with him when he scored that goal. In 86 against the england, we were, he told meters he was running close to him all the time. He was asking him to pass the ball in when they were in the dressing room, the chair where he said, dont know why were really trying to pass through the ball. With a so many england english players were tried, tackled me, i was obliged to triple them. And then i found myself in front of the goal and i dont offer any of the option. The school i talked to many players played with him. And he said that he could win a match by himself, and everybody knew when they were playing with him, that the moment they were in trouble. If they gave the ball to cream, he could score, he could change completely the fate of a match. And you, us study has found that astra zeneca is that vaccine is less effective on old people. The research was done by operation walk speed, which is in charge of americas hunt for a vaccine. The swedish british pharma giants job was found to have 90 percent efficacy with people 55. 00 and under if a half dose followed by a full one sees 12. 00 full days is when used in this group of volunteers included people over 55. 00. The drug was only 62 percent effective. There are also differences in the age brackets present in the quartz in that the 1st quarter that received those and full, those very full. Those had a cap on the as at the age of 55. 00. When there are all the people included in the city that received full, those in food and those well, if both dose levels are included, the astra zeneca drug has an average effectiveness, a 70 percent. Not as high as for vaccines being developed in america, germany and russia. We discus, discuss the issue of transparency surrounding the race for a vaccine with several medical experts. These Companies Last present all of their data very clearly out front. We had dissipated that with all the different vaccines being developed, some may work better in some populations than others. And at least the early reports suggest that this may be true of the astra zeneca. Actually, we have a huge proportion of the population thats under 65 years of age, or under 50, that would still be ending normas contribution of this vaccine that could add to the total that nation effort. This is absolutely essential that we have transparency up and down the line. That is the only thing that will engender trust. And if we expect people to come forward and roll up their sleeves and be vaccinated, we need their trust. And the only way you can get trust is to be honest, straightforward, and transparent. And when that happens, then i think we have earned the trust of the people who need to be actually Healthy People under the age of 55 really are remarkably unaffected by, by the virus. So, so, you know, the population who we were trying to, lucian knew were liable to die for all infection are out of this very group, realistically, its got to work for the elderly and unwise but have a busted flush. Really remarkably small numbers on 100 and i think under 10 people up to the point where they release results. I mean, these were only incident when the very early stage, every b. C. Testing rather than a major trial. I mean, the senate not actually scheduled an issue until october 2022 and the pfizer one until 22. So these trials are actually only all of them are in very, very early stages. So i think is a bit early for the other companies that were anybody else to be jumping up and down saying you were doesnt work and i dont do it. Pandemics casting a grim a shadow over the festive season, including in the u. S. Where the daily death rate is now higher than back in may. Experts say that hospitals could be overwhelmed by christmas. And with american celebrating thanksgiving on thursday, president elect joe biden is asking people to limits their celebrations for our families, for 40 search years, 40 some years. Were going to tradition of traveling over thanksgiving this year. But we stand, i know how hard it is to for grow family traditions. But its soul very important. Our countrys in the middle of a dramatic spike in cases. The latest polls show most people still intend to gather with their loved ones, though the figure has declined since September States across america. They are rolling out measures that will hamper celebration plans as one quarter expects. Thanksgiving is coming up in the u. S. And that means its turkey time, although maybe not because 2020 is trying to find yet another way to ruin everybodys lives. Theres a run on small turkeys, turkeys that are 10 to 14 pounds are in high demand right now. Even if youre one of the few privileged enough to have a smaller turkey on your table this year, dont get too excited. This thanksgiving is supposed to be especially dangerous. With more people staying home for thanksgiving, more americans will be cooking at home for the 1st time. And some of them are stressed and with more amateur cooks hitting the kitchen this year. One firefighters says it could be a recipe for disaster and case. Thats not enough for you to stress about new yorks governor. Andrew cuomo capped the amount of people you can have to dinner at 10. I dont think you can get away with an extra straggler too. Big brother cuomo was watching while cuomo didnt seem to have any problem sacrificing other peoples thanksgiving day when he urged families not to gather for the celebration. He himself invited his mother and 2 daughters home for the holiday. That wasnt long before he withdrew the invitation. But many people still arent happy about that. Cuomo is the would go in america. Hes arrogant and he pull chrissy knows no bounds. Do as i say, not as i do. Pennsylvanias gathering limit isnt as draco nian as new yorks but the states alcohol ban is a trip in itself. Bars and restaurants have already been ordered to halt all. d booze sales and some people just dont understand the relation. Pennsylvania bans alcohol, oregon legalizes hahn drugs. 2020 is wild pennsylvania and just banned alcohol for one night. Only before thanksgiving. What exactly are we come back to again and fire us alcoholism . Freedom nights before thanksgiving has historically been the biggest algal consuming night of the year, probably in preparation for the relatives. Since you cant have them over this year, you would be getting drunk just for fun. Oh, and it probably goes without saying political discussions at the dinner table this year might not be the best idea. But with all these new rules and restrictions, its likely americans will have little more than their safety to be thankful for this year. Fessor psychology, glengarry media specialist, Cameron Thomas discussed whether people should be free to celebrate the holiday as they please. It comes to, you know, personal responsibility and, you know, individuals who want to protect their families. I think its a sign that people should step aside for thanksgiving. This year and stay safe. I think bret realize asian is very important. I think freedom is very important and i thank our culture, you know, cultures vary on a lot of dimensions. The United States is known as whats a very loose culture. Some americans feel that their referendum is being taken away by, by these measures. But you know, your life is a fair, fair price to pay thanksgiving in your life. I dont know what i choose from what i choose. I think i choose life, but what were seeing now is so Many Americans not following the guidelines and not following the rules, is partly the fact that we do live in a loose culture where people are from a very small age, very young age sort of and courage to sort of make their own rules and force their own paths and life. Hey, im very tired of it. Ive been isolated. You know, i havent seen my mom since april. Yeah, im getting tired of that. But, you know, the bottom line is that there is this raging pandemic out there. Its sad me actually i have tears in my eyes seen so many people being so irresponsible, you know, human beings will follow their emotions. And so i think theres a lot of people who are like, i know this isnt the right thing to do on you know, and one sense, but darn it, im doing it because i feel like i have to be a lot of people are doing. Compromise were supposed to sit next to each other, you know, arm next on shoulder necks, the shoulder cutting through dying stock and warrants in concerts, conditions, and is in a lot of ways, very unnatural. And i would argue, in a long term sense is very unhealthy. Its going to be the same next year. Traditions are disappearing. They, you know, these traditions have grain to me in the american psyche been going on for, you know, hundreds of years. Sacrificing one year is not going to make a difference. Theres so many ways that these, you know, these current guidelines and conditions might be good from a Public Health standpoint and they are. But i do think that theyre cutting into our emotional and social and should merely ill health. And i feel like thanksgiving is really just, im just like a really struck us example. That particular problem. Thats a joke to me this morning. They say is an International Dates for you in half an hour. Then what by recommending what i call go out . Or you will pull you out of the pit in the mountains and what about and i didnt do it will always be the good do it is the only one to come on a power keep it or dont or dont let it be. Come up to the truth about the how i live in them have a better game and the minimum time because im not bad with them, but oh, november they have a saying i give them their identity like about it and that i have they all beings has it and is about to get it done as a supplement that you know, its not fair when i was 16. Thats what he does, but i thought it would be done. Now is how it is funded and i thought, but i dont want to get off this class
