the gatekeepers of political thought we've been experiencing censorship throwing. everything you need to get. back to back thirty days. germany's biggest state heads to the polls sunday with the right wing party predicted to get its first see the party members say bavarian leaders no panicking and trying to make their agenda this is very well known among the journalists and also among the. kind of copying our program. of the weekend it just turned two pm here in moscow this saturday thanks for watching us wanted kevin know it first then the u.s. is finding it is finding itself tricky course of the moment over the disappearance of a dissident journalist in turkey well president trump speaks about protecting a mirror. his multi-billion dollar business with the he's the u.s.
7:02 am
national security advisor meantime is cautiously pushing for swiftly share the facts i think the saudis themselves are being damaged because we don't have the facts out there's obviously been historical animosity between turkey and saudi arabia we have our own difficulties with turkey at the moment jamal khashoggi was last seen entering the saudi consulate in istanbul october the second he's not been heard of since turkey is not officially accused of being involved but multiple reports claim its intelligence services have evidence that not only was kidnapped but also killed saudi arabia vehemently denies any involvement must be said meantime there are several reports emerging that the u.s. reportedly knew of alleged saudi plans to capture because shogi news outlets are claiming the saudi crown prince ordered an operation to lure in detain him correspondent jacqueline bouvier discussed the allegations on the program earlier
7:03 am
bullishly the trumpet ministration was rather slow in responding to the disappearance and this really may indicate why earlier in the week reports surface that the u.s. had intercepts of saudi officials discussing a plot to lure him back to saudi arabia and detain him there now he's of course been living in the u.s. for about a year now at this point and he writes for the washington post he's a journalist and a lot of his articles are rather critical of the saudi government now it's unclear when the u.s. may have intercepted this intelligence and if they may have acted on it but it does raise quite a few questions not least of which being whether or not they had a responsibility to warn the journalist that his life might be in danger in some way shape or form now on wednesday a state department official did come out saying that they did not have any prior knowledge of the incident though again it's government's own intelligence matters i can see the united states had no advanced knowledge of the show his disappearance. so while these reports are based on you know again unnamed sources more than one
7:04 am
allen says to have confirmed them at this point and then one has to wonder whether or not this is a situation where the left hand just doesn't know what the right is doing then in the u.s. government because at the same time we have a group of almost two dozen senators who are up in arms about the situation if we find though that they were complicit or director of the sensitive way this election should like this program this is serious that if this did happen and it's increasing the likelihood that something bad happened to this man at the hands of the saudi government has contempt for us. disrespectful to say i think it's important in this situation that we we don't overreact or on the react we need to get the facts and i know that's a startling proposition for the united states congress that we should get the facts before we act well so the pressure on the white house now amounting to investigate
7:05 am
could show gets disappear and senators from both parties says tom stop selling weapons to saudi arabia the business is joining in to several firms have pulled the saudi investment conference to be held later this month but so far donald trump isn't yielding as caleb maupin reports if you thought that the disappearance of a saudi journalist in turkey would hurt ties between riyadh and washington wrong military and diplomatic ties are closer than ever and donald trump recently spoke up about why that is i don't like the concept of stopping an investment of one hundred ten billion dollars into the united states. because you don't think they're going to take that money and spend it at russia or china or someplace else the media was pretty shaken by his honesty if the saudis are responsible and this is the bully that everyone elected to push around the world leader said it would not be a good thing at all of them. he said we don't mind dictatorship we have no interest
7:06 am
in human rights in your country saudi has been a client of the united states' close relationship for a long time to the administration and saudi arabia figured that they were so good for. facebook is fun revealing some details of the hawkins' of the compromise millions of jews is the social media john says it's working closely with the f.b.i. to find that who was behind it. tucker is already controlled a set of accounts which were connected to facebook friends they used an automated technique to move from account to account so they could steal the access tokens of those friends and for friends of those friends and so on totaling about four hundred thousand people originally fifty million users were estimated to have been affected but today that number was reduced to about thirty million now the hacker started with a group of about four hundred thousand people and then use those accounts to expand
7:07 am
it to about thirty million people so one can imagine how alarmed users must be after in trusting their private information to facebook now the hacking resulted in fifteen million users having their names and contact details disclosed and dish and fourteen million had all their personal info disclosed but this isn't the first time this has happened to facebook of course earlier this year millions of users were hacked by cambridge analytic a tech firm it's worth noting that the f.b.i. who is investigating the incident asked facebook not to discuss who could possibly be behind the attacks so it'll be interesting to see who they find responsible hopefully not the usual suspect legal and media around this lionel told us face bush concentrate more of security than on policing content. they're the main suspect their negligence the fact that they're paying attention far too much to what somebody is saying then to the internal security of their system they are to
7:08 am
blame they're the ones here me to tell me that in the year almost twenty nineteen they have not figured out how to protect names yet this also screams out for the internet bill of rights all over the world you see that's what facebook should be paying attention to but instead all no no it's worried about shutting down. and pages that nobody would have even known about had they not done this americans and the world are saying what are you going to do about it why don't you care as much about our personal safety our data our information as you do and our opinions which you may not agree with that's the issue news of the how can investigation comes a day off to facebook shut down hundreds of pages in the consequences of big misleading we spoke to some of those affected by facebook's latest purge they say the tech giants policing people who speak out against the status quo.
7:09 am
we've been experiencing self-censorship throw away. everything you need to be going to bare and unfair and to back thirty days parents multiple times so it's going slowly but surely going trying to. get our. ideology use the information that we're putting out there even though it's based on peace and liberty they're trying to eradicate it from the platform threatens the status quo. contradicts the mainstream media. has kind of blurred the line. to government collusion. as well as pressure from government specialists in the last few months so i don't think it's safe to say that their private entity completely in that sense. you have these major tech companies appointing themselves as the gatekeepers of political thought well that is clearly
7:10 am
a political move i was told that this was because of spamming that you know we are . collectively. pushing our information on people or that it was operated from a fake account all of these things are true the information that i post or used to post on facebook was information that i produced on my website which goes against the government it goes against the status quo and i think that's what we are dealing with here today. because a lot of or it's lack of doing anything about supposedly lection meddling in the two thousand and sixteen election but in my opinion this could actually be perceived as facebook itself meddling in the election because we're only a few weeks away from the midterms and they go in target. hundred politically oriented facebook pages for deletion and and. you know coincidentally or not that a lot of these pages happen to fall into
7:11 am
a certain category which is very anti-establishment anti-authoritarian kind of niche people who maybe have a very different take on the upcoming elections than you would typically see liberal or conservative media. talking of elections elsewhere voters in germany's biggest region are said to elect the next government tomorrow the right wing alternative germany parties expected to went to bavaria as parliament for the first time according to polls looking at how the political landscape currently lies at the. time is ticking away in the key german states of the various states election campaigns come to a close even the polls say it's time for the. system party to end a miracle c.d.u. c.s.u. looks set to lose the dominance it held in various second world even taste ounce addition is apparently losing its appeal.
7:12 am
now the c.s.u. use launched major rallies in a desperate and final attempt to extract those. votes to swing a bat and the miracles come passionate microstate is expected to various took in the second highest number of asylum seekers house and sixteen regions in the country at the height of the migrant crisis twenty thousand arrived at munich station. everyone was talking about six. feet. six. it was yes it is now the alternative to chimney party or the f.d.a. is on the page of entering their very own parliament for the first time they even claiming that the ruling vivarium party is stealing the campaign to keep. this is very well known among the journalists and also among the people to see is who is kind of copying our program but is losing massively losing the people we got
7:13 am
a big part of like to write this is the case then we can make. those two more conservative believing towards the end day however those who talk by the rhetoric leaving towards the last two will agree they're expected to come back into the twenty percent of the vote the big. c.s.u. will be history whatever the outcome one thing's for sure the data in jamie's maced influential regional peers have implications in national politics and many people have election many people are. specialists so this is going to be the end of the coalition and. we heard this already several times. and what we see is that everybody in the government is sticking on its chair and especially on the american saw i am not so sure. that the coalition
7:14 am
fell apart. and they will try to stay on power as long as possible. america's most expensive fighter jets have been grounded after one of the aircraft crashed in south carolina apparently because of faulty fuel tubes the trillion dollar f. thirty five program which was almost two decades in the making is already been heavily criticized for its huge cost and range of flaws. the f. thirty five a dream to fly it's wonderful. please . please.
7:15 am
say. the u.s. services and international partners have temporarily suspended after thirty five flight operations. the enterprise conducts a fleet wide inspection of a fuel to within the engine if known good fuel tubes are already installed in those aircraft will be returned to flight status. although i think this weekend by the way coming up tech could say. what the majority of europeans say e.u. leaders about it a few of the stories that. join

me every thursday on the alex i'm unsure and i'll be speaking to the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. you need to let the audience you need to let people decide what is the relevance of them you don't need to filter he said john author so censor himself he believes he knew better he believes he do with what the needs were of these folks and that self-censorship which is such a step and this is completely wrong and this is why we have been sleepwalking into the next financial crisis how john author has been a gonzo journalist i've been a property in new ways journalist how do you how do you not self censor themselves as this next crisis unfolds people would be better prepared to deal with it but they won't be because the failure of fake journalists like i was.
7:17 am
so this sort of expert still trying to find out what went wrong with a booster rocket from thursday's failed soyuz launch the dramatic escape of those two astronauts on board is also seen industry experts praise the attack that propelled them to safety. each and every soyuz spacecraft is equipped with an emergency escape system it is designed to enable the crew safe escape in case of an emergency on board during blast off and the ascension phase the system has an evacuation capsule and powerful engines attached to it the engines are active fifteen minutes before launch if the flight gets out of control they propel the capsule away from the main body of the rocket that enables the crew to reach
7:18 am
a safe distance in about four seconds parachutes then open to slow the capsules descent and ensure a safe landing this is the only system of its kind that is so deeply integrated in both the spacecraft and the launch vehicle the emergency system has been deployed eight times over the history of soyuz launches three of them were manned missions and the crew survived every time i get most if not course i want to thank the rescue was and those who designed this cape system thanks to them came back to earth i don't think it was a miracle i think it's professionalism i think it's optional technology test crew and over many many years and also the actual humans just the emergency crews as you heard the only to get there in time and i'm sure what was happening in the council was was very professional the soyuz is. you know the
7:19 am
ground now that it's been around forever it has proven it so repeatedly. and i think it's probably one or if not the safest your mic spacecraft in the world and the european space agency says the organization will continue to use soyuz rockets to other ready to help in the investigation. there is no change of plans so we are looking forwards to not only using also use for the next astronauts but also how some of our allies so we do not see a change in plan the most important thing is now to find out who course and i hope that this can be done quickly and then we go just on. our hearts who was crossed mars is ready to participate in the. investigation because of course we're interested in getting our information next time. we want to have another european astronaut a committal next year. this may come as
7:20 am
a surprise or not seems nearly two thirds of e.u. citizens think life would not be worse if the bloc didn't exist according to a new study the friends of europe think tanks findings are part of a push to highlight a perceived growing disconnect between the e.u. leaders and its people the group also found that nearly half of those polled think the e.u. is a relevant transparencies also an issue for citizens according to the research as well as frustration at leaders for not focusing on the issues people really care about mind you that's not quite how the power brokers in brussels see it though again you might be surprised these foreign policy chief said recently that the world wouldn't survive without the twenty eight state nation. close your eyes and imagine for one moment the european union disappeared from the global scene right now let us say for a month or week even for a few days the world will simply collapse the world is not in a good shape through much without the european union it will be in
7:21 am
a much worse city ation brussels based journalist told me why he thinks there's such a noticeable divide between the e.u.'s leadership though and its citizens. the last story of europeans with europe this coming to an end that people still feel europeans find but it's secondary it's not very important and they don't realize that all directives all their own legislation in their own country comes from brussels through the direct is produced by the european commission and approved by the european parliament so it is a strange situation into which europe is very important for european citizens but they don't perceive it you know and they date they prefer their national identity they keep their nationality day to day now want the borders back because they see that european borders don't function after four years of problems so that's the situation now and mrs morgan any can say whatever she she wants to say but she's not a hero for the europeans. the strongest storm to hit the united states in decades

a powerful unitary executive dictates to a team of corporate lawyers and servile flatterers that he would like to. mexico to his will until daybreak all right they then the lawyers and the obvious go go about doing that at secret meetings in which powerful corporate lawyers and lobbyists from each country make their demands after the corporate parasites see who. see you who they can suck the most from the others the president tells everyone governments i am created no trade deal for the american people he says that even though he has not read the document because. i made it into pages long and it doesn't even have hardly any colorful photos in it. then along after it's been debated and agreed upon some of the details of the top secret trade deal are lead
