correspondent stephanie stephanie charges of 3rd degree murder and manslaughter against one of the 4 officers involved what does that mean. that means. 25 years in prison if this is a solid case and if he's going to be found guilty that's what that in all fairness and in all submissive he actually means and i tell you the protesters c.-a were when they heard the news about the arrest and about the charges filed quite delighted of course there was a sentiment of that this is going on the right track now however as you can maybe see behind me and i'm just have an aside here for just a 2nd council here swelling on now again and this fight is they say not over not at all because there's 3 officers still not arrested and not charged. and stephanie hallett protesters reacted to the news of the charges at

least against one of the offices. with joy actually but also i would say caution because as you can see here right behind me and as you said there is a curfew coming. i can brief and no justice without them seeing those offices all of those offices charged and arrested this is actually what they are standing for here and they will know there will be no lending out in protesting maybe even in violence who knows before this is not the case all for all for officers arrested charged. they did to mr floyd's which we all are seeing in this video. stuff and there's a deadline coming tonight what happens at pm when the comes into effect what happens what do you think will happen if that could if you what happens to those

people. that's a very good question that's the 1000000 dollar question so this can go both ways this can go really well and calm things down. or put on the flame because as i said i don't have the feeling that those protesters here are prepared to just go home and leave it where it is their are in pain and they are really determined to show their communities their politicians the elites not just hear about all around the country that this is absolutely enough and that they need to understand that something is to change in america regarding systemic racism which is what they face every day on the streets of minneapolis steffen see monks thank you so much on twitter has covered up a tweet from president trump referring to unrest in minneapolis president trump

tweeted that when the looting starts the shooting starts which the company decided promoted violence the president believes twitter is biased against him and the other conservative commentator so he signed an executive order i mean to check the power of social media. he calls it protecting free speech for the social media companies say it's a politicized approach to law trumps the latest executive orders designed to strip social media companies of their existing immunity when it comes to content published on their platform. and choices than 20 minutes when it used to suppress. black shadow. our editorial decisions pure and simple their editorial decisions in those moments twitter seems to be a neutral public platform and they become and they're with a viewpoint and i think we can say that about others also this week twitter put

fact check labels on 2 of the president's tweets that had unsubstantiated claims about voting by mail in the us 2 it is said it decided to do so because the content broke its rules on the key issue of voting. trompette back and accuse twitter of trying to interfere in the 2020 presidential election and stuff for free speech the business and technology sector argued the order could curb freedom of speech across the internet while legal experts are warning that it conflicts with the existing law which telling the congress not the president can change it really is a complete misreading of section $230.00 it takes. a law that has been interpreted time and time again very very broadly by multiple federal circuit courts and just says i'm replacing all of this with my own interpretation that i have no right to give about how to interpret this or a law and so no it's really not going to have any staying power in

a court i may really is kind of have a piece about it for the fall or that means the order will likely be challenged in court ahead of the november presidential election. so it seems the order will probably be struck down in court so what is president trump trying to achieve we put that question to you mathias kiwanuka from the institute for maybe researching how bork he has achieved already is something namely now we're talking about that as a legal question but it is not actually a legal question it is a political act an attempt to divide the platforms to divide facebook from twitter as we've seen to do to divide the democrats because they have also called for stronger regulation of platforms he's trying to rally his base he is afraid of being confronted. with his failures regarding quiting corona and he's now trying to open a new front and he has been rather successful as we see from lots of media coverage

that is actually focusing on this as a legal question but it is actually a political attack against the most important law protecting internet freedom of expression. ok let's take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world. 3 people were wounded in a shootout in broad daylight and the ukrainian capital kiev president lot of misled said the gunman who apparently members of a rival bus companies should be punished. all still on the side of north korea's embassy in berlin has been forced to close off the ideas long dispute with city authorities berlin have long argued that the hostile violated un sanctions that's a big property deals with north korea. in hungary commemorations have been taking place to mach one year since an accident on the river danube killed more than 2 dozen south korean troops carrying visitors collided with
