custody it happened a day after an all too familiar american seen rebuffed by a black man pleads for help is he struggles to bring what you want i can read. these are the images on a minneapolis street the man cries out in pain a policeman's knee on his neck there are you know. i. never. even heard. george floyd accused of chick forgery is pressed down his face bloody my stomach but big or. anything or. bystanders plead with the officers was a body that was likely he later died in police custody it is the latest incident of a deadly confrontation between a white police officer and a black man captured on video yonder would really help them in these maybe you'll get me to both the city's police chief says he's been a sleepless night deciding what to do then fired the 4 officers at the scene i

stand before you in the city of minneapolis here to say that our deepest condolences to the city's mayor calls the death unacceptable being black in america should not be a death sentence for stiva minutes we watched as a white officer. pressed his knee into the neck of a black man for 5 minutes the scene bears an eerie resemblance to a 2014 incident in new york city where another black man eric garner says his last words to the police officers restraining him i can't breathe after officers were cleared the guard case led to protests across the us police say george floyd had been resisting arrest bystanders said the force was clearly excessive and when it comes to excessive force in the us the pendulum has increasingly swung away from

police into ward the alleged victim officer jason van dyke is now serving a 7 year prison term for this 2014 shooting in chicago with luke kwan mcdonald each week animals battle black lives once again demonstrators massed as they've done after similar incidents in new york chicago baltimore in ferguson missouri to demand justice for african-americans across the u.s. and for the police said whose hands george floyd died john hendren al-jazeera chicago now the u.s. president has run into trouble with his favorite form of mass communication twitter has labeled 2 tweets on donald trump's official account as misleading and refers uses to a fact check page says a social media company's new policy is stifling free speech and interfering with this u.s. presidential election in afraid is the chief technology correspondent at the news website axels and says it's taken the social media giant

a long time to act on these types of tweets. there are 2 areas where twitter has said specifically they would be more aggressive one of those is misinformation around the virus so we've seen them take action against the brazilian president over that and then also on election misinformation so this is one of the 2 areas where they said they'd be more aggressive that said they have never taken action in 3 and a half years of presidential tweets and there have been plenty that have been misleading this is the 1st time that they've labeled it so it's still a major moment i think there's been a lot of pressure but initially if you remember in 201617188 lot of the focus was on needed in authentic behavior so outside of the u.s. influences on election so whether it was russia or china or whomever it was other countries using bots attempting to interfere the more recent issue has to do with misinformation but intentional by individuals so it's not you know authentic

behavior it's actually president term it's just that the information itself it's false and the platforms have been much less able to deal with this it's much easier for them to take a look at you know a 1000 bots that are repeating the same thing and saying ok that's definitely not allowed where it gets harder is when you have the actual president whether it's brazil's president tweeting misinformation 'd about the coronavirus or president trump tweeting false information about the election that is much harder. returning now to the coronavirus crisis in the world health organization is warning of a surge in call the 19 infections in brazil peru and chile as a region becomes a new global at the center of the pandemic brazil as america's worst affected country with nearly 400000 confirmed cases and a study is warning its death toll could climb 5 fold by august testable reports.
