a diverse team of western media organizations to draw the line between good and bad that's right freedom house the apparently independent and u.s. state funded n g o that helped the cia with a 980 s. propaganda campaign twitter picked the right state funded organization for the job of censoring state funded organizations so why is twitter suddenly pumping media doesn't like management didn't say but the mainstream media was able to connect a few dots when it comes to burning issues like the protests in hong kong there's only room for one perspective. state owned public funded independent what's the difference if at the end of the day you're only getting one take on controversial events it's a bad idea for twitter to put any restrictions on on any media companies and on any
5:03 am
of their advertising i i support freedom of speech any restrictions that companies like twitter or facebook start putting on media organizations it prevents as much dialogue that could happen and it leads to other other rules that could be worse for other organizations as well and it's not always a very clear distinction on what is state controlled versus not state controlled and there are loopholes that will allow. organizations like m.p.r. m.p.'s in the united states or the b.b.c. in britain to continue to advertise in em publish on twitter. now lead to audio recording has revealed that an american oil and gas lobby group helped secure legislation that criminalize protests against pipelines that was in response to demonstrations against the construction of a pipeline in north dakota during which activists chain themselves to equipment

protesters also started fires to win the authorities try to remove them from the site with more on the story his kind of more pay. if you want to have big influence in washington d.c. and need to have a big lobby and that means you need to have big money meet the american fuel and petrochemical manufacturers the f.p.m. represents all the big names in the energy markets koch industries chevron exxon mobil valero energy to name a few now the f.p.m. has been around since 1902 making sure that the voice of the ultra wealthy oil monopolists are not left out of the political process and it seems like their latest target has been protesters now the a.t.f. has crafted legislation in $22.00 different states already passed in 9 states that would severely restrict the activities of political activists who might get in the way of oil pipelines and other profitable infrastructure in an audio recording
5:05 am
obtained by the intercept the group's senior vice president discusses the strategy that they're using to criminalize protests. with. the. now the language of the riot boosting act is a little bit vague it could be a stretch to outlaw even thinking about protesting big oil companies. now this is the only law that's been pushed by the a.f.p. i am 28 teen age 30000000 dollar lobbying effort killed
5:06 am
a carbon tax in washington state bigger cars means more gasoline and more gasoline means more profits for the oil companies the money and influence of big oil certainly outweigh the efforts. grassroots environmentalist everybody knows that in the united states of america if you want something you have got to pay for it and the oil industry certainly has all the means necessary. but r.t. new york. it is 6 years to the day since a major chemical attack on the syrian capital. back in 2030 in the rebel stronghold in damascus was targeted with rockets containing sarin gas and this prompted international outrage with many pointing the finger at the syrian government the syrian government has utilized chemical weapons in its fight against rebels the syrian sarin gas attack which are ministration says the syrian government launched the assad regime has used chemical weapons including the nerve agent sarin syrian
5:07 am
troops now have the deadly nerve agent sarin gas weaponized and at the ready for the syrian president bashar assad responded to the allegations calling them part of the fake narrative of the west nevertheless he committed to destroying his country's chemical arsenal the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons drawn to special fact finding mission to investigate that incident and in its wake you go to donald now reports on what progress has been made. this syrian war theater has become the seeing for some of the scariest chemical attacks of the 21st century in many acts of this tragedy it is still not known to this very day who launched noxious project tiles that have killed hundreds if not thousands of people for years the so-called fact finding mission and initiative over un backed chemical watchdog has been tasked with dotting the ice the establishment of
5:08 am
a fact finding mission was based on the general authority of the o.p.c. w. director general seek to uphold at all times the object and purpose of the chemical weapons convention. in a report on a series of chemical incidents in lebanon 2015 the mission showed a drawing of an alleged munition used in one of the attacks what they didn't mention though was that using such a device as a bomb didn't make sense it was loaded not with chlorine but rather the chemicals that needed to be mixed together to become toxic according to the u.n. to facilitate this would be a tall order the a c f c hydrochloride fluorocarbon gas canisters commonly referred to as refrigerant canisters are widely available because they used to refill refrigerators and air conditioners however they are disposable and they repurpose seeing all refilling would require technical modification of the valve technical expertise and equipment would be needed to modify the valve to refill the canisters
5:09 am
with liquids or compressed gas the report gave no clear indications as to how this had been a success. and if any of this looked to see it was a whole slew of virus claims forward and yet for any report the leaves were. filled with something else but these canisters that there was no device shown these cancers would rule out on to being. refill are not accountable so this is a big question mark and yes taken something constructive to devise which allegedly can be ineffective where the pattern continues in other reports or by the fact finding mission to. a toxic attack and hunchy whom seem to reinforce bashar assad's reputation of
5:10 am
a tyrant gassing his own people even though damascus denied any involvement the fact finding mission provided an extensive analysis of the incident but somewhat over look the fact that the closest the government planes got to hunchy who in their day was 5 kilometers the map indicated that the closest to hand shake that the aircraft had flown had been approximately 5 kilometers away additional information provided by the mechanism referred to 2 aircraft that had taken off from the shea rad air base at around the time indicated as above 10 minutes apart following the same flight path this effectively rules out the possibility of an air strike throwing a dark shadow of doubt on the version suggesting the government's involvement. another thing left out about this incident is the fact that some of the alleged victims had been admitted to hospitals before the attack some were chipped in as patients in a hospital more than a 100 kilometers away just 30 minutes after the incident the mission didn't seem to
5:11 am
present any facts explaining how the ambulance could have covered this distance in under 30 minutes because to do so it would have had to go at a speed of more than 200 kilometers per hour to reach the facility one of the cheap problems that being in the station many of the alleged attacks there's been a reliance on. n.g.o.s reliant on what i was asian which are not independent. question is raised how much are international organizations un. been subjected to external pressure in order to generate that. goals the war in syria almost normalize the use of chemicals in warfare but it seems that the very mission there was established to find out the facts as to who
5:12 am
bears most of the blame has been just a bit selective as to which facts to look for you cause you dan are we asked you to comment on why some evidence appears to have been ignored although so far they haven't responded. by russia's top diplomat or the keys the us of long wanting to pull out of nuclear arms treaty sergei lavrov the comments come as washington announced it has started to develop a new missile previously banned under the now defunct i unearthed arms control deal between the countries. it was should be known from october of last year when the us national security advisor john bolton visited us he said that donald trump statement about washington's withdrawal from the treaty is not an invitation to dialogue but a final decision it appears that then or maybe even earlier the us started preparing the missile tests conducted on sunday and banned by the i.n.f. treaty long before the i.m.f.
5:13 am
treaties demise parts of the us damaged and were eager to enhance america's nuclear capabilities the united states must regain the strategic advantage by expediting the development and deployment of a new generation of ground launched missiles now the department of defense will be able to conduct those research and development activities bent under i.n.f. treaty so the department of defense will start their steps on building their system they couldn't before. former u.s. diplomats in trask gave us his views on the missile test and the collapse of the treaty. i believe that the decision to pull out of the i.m.f. was made of bad faith with the idea that we can attain strategic superiority over russia make russia's security situation i'm annabelle and that. just with political leverage i think that's what these people think and i think of the speed with which this test was made is indicative not not dispositive not prove but indicative that
5:14 am
that was the agenda all along united states establishment's not necessarily mr trump would be a fabulous one see china as another adversary to be eliminated i think they are on deck after the russians but nonetheless that's the way they tend to look at that they don't see it in terms of your other powers in the world with their own interests their own legitimate spiritual influence how do we accommodate that how do we come to a balance of our will rather there's only room on this planet for one hedge on that and these people must submit or he should do so to come italy's prime minister has announced that he's quitting plunging the country and planning a single crisis we'll have a look at the ramifications am what could happen next in the split in the and i. would. so what we've got to do is identify the
5:15 am
threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race off and spearing dramatic development only closely and going to exist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk. going back to medieval days you had the church which is like the monetarist present day 21st century where they would discuss how many angels can dance on the head of a pin they were in power and they enclosed this little model and now we've got neo feudalism or you guys central bankers discussing how many derivatives can be stuffed into a worker's pension fund and we've got folks in san francisco in newark new jersey dying from medieval diseases.
5:16 am
cast calendar is dark alfonzo and monday has died there's changing page change dard served our. his 1st words were how low a c. or a challenging post you got 2 years to live. i have no doubt that what happened was scriven. let's concentrate market is a $1000000000.00 industry these companies have a huge financial motivation to sow these problems there are numerous stocks showing that doctors were keen to chest x. ray concentrates for infectivity on the patients won't give them doctors the wrong stoplight. or term the stomach why they would give me i'm sick each of those years
5:17 am
day. and people still die i don't know which question or so i tried being hard to live where so many have. welcomed the tally and prime ministers have become say has resigned after a year of tensions within is sleaze ruling coalition he had been threatened with a vote of no confidence by the country's interior minister and both flashed back to each other in part. well you got that on called freedom is not about having a master but about not having a master i don't want italy to be enslaved by anyone go to me salute their minister of the interior dear by promoting this government crisis you have taken on a great responsibility before the country you are nance this crisis asking for full
5:18 am
powers to govern the country you are approaching it worries me. was. well can't say has been asked to stay on as part of a caretaker cabinet and there also were talks to have a new governing coalition being formed but if that doesn't happen the president could dissolve parliament and force a snap election so the question is who would that benefit will according to the latest surveys they predict that matter still viens party would get 38 percent of the vote if an election were held today and that is significantly more than the 5 star movement who had formed part of the coalition government that was formed back in june last year and was an unusual combination between the left wing 5 star movement and anti immigration the leak part of research or the italian center for electoral study says that the coalition is never going to last long. it was the 1st
5:19 am
government formed by these 2 parties that by someone and never been in government and the league previously in government but certain right governments so this was a new experimental coalition governments we have probably seen that clearly show governments that these unique one was not expected to last a bit longer regardless of what the big mean is there is hope to go and be clear in the beginning but of course nobody expected these before let alone will start so close a balance be left all but this is completely surprising and even m.p.'s from the league didn't really understand why salvini moves so fast in this very moment ok let's have a quick look at some other world stories the refugees living in the pakistan administered part of kashmir held a rally demanding that india ends its crackdown wrote down all of its part of the region hundreds chanted anti india slogans and protesters also burned in effigy of the indian prime minister the indian part of kashmir has been on lockdown since who
5:20 am
was the 5th when india stripped the region of the some autonomy telephone and internet communications there are currently restricted the man hijacked a bus on a bridge in brazil was read as you near a taking 37 passengers there hostage he used a fake gun and threatened to set the bus on fire didn't make any particular demands on the suspect was shot dead by police after a 4 hour standoff nobody else was hurt but it did cause major traffic problems and police is i think to have dispersed kurdish protests with water cannon and take gas the region has been gripped by an rest since the firing of 3 kurdish elected back in march they were accused of links to the p.k. k. which ankara considers a terrorist organization $400.00 protesters have been arrested since monday the government crackdown comes amid fears of a cross border military operation in kurdish areas of northern syria.
5:21 am
finally this hour a prominent defender of media freedoms has been slammed for breaching press freedom that after the bodyguard of cnn's a pariah and forcibly prevented another journalist from filming space age. it is a sad day. when. a u.s. president does not stand by the constitution the 1st amendment freedom of the press there's been efforts to silence me in the briefing room they have been efforts to discredit me you now have security. and you say the white house should pay for it but i'm here because i started they started up.
5:22 am
a security guard assaulted me in a hotel lobby after stealing our camera. whatever they want i thought i was. going. to get all cheer put that down by. this ryan's remarks well then interrupted by a visit from the mystery man who i later learned is named joe morris and works as a security guard for miss ryan mr morris proceeded to unplug my camera grab the tripod it was connected to and steal the entire thing. was. going to face a guy like. ok. i was. trying to get away from the perpetrator but within seconds he began assaulting me without provocation. and continued his assault as he forced me out of the building . i.
5:23 am
know this is the same a pariah in this is a bit strong. encourages violence at his rallies people get thrown out and that's just part of it as like a blood sport and then he or she is havin something that is much worse had been one of our own a days seems pretty you know hypocritical to say the least well you want to protect themselves 1st and foremost say cname so they don't want to have any kind of negative coverage about their journalists and their pundits on air they won't talk about a pariah and have a nobody gart basically beat somebody up almost say her particular event it won't talk about that because about protecting their and their name and their image but i talk about shop all day long even if it was illegitimate excuse to throw a person now even if they were trying to fight other people will talk about their inner child say paint shop and his supporters as violent as negative as hateful and
5:24 am
his races but on their end of it they just perfect dangers they can do no wrong he wants nothing to national thanks and company for softening them to get there you can also keep yourself updated t. went off social media and each. one else seemed wrong. but we're all just don't call. me i'll get to stamp out this thing because after. an engagement equals betrayal. when someone find themselves worlds apart we just on the common ground.
5:25 am
why a paradise with some around turned into a round the experimentation field for agricultural chemicals we know that these chemicals have consequences they are major irritant there's no question otherwise why would that the chemical company workers themselves be geared up that suited up locals attempt to combat the on regulated experiments that often in day you have many of these people who have one foot into the biotech pharma and the other foot in the government regulatory bodies this kind of collusion is reprehensible while the battle goes on the chemicals continue to poison hawaii and its people so one has to ask the question whether there is a form of environmental research going on in hawaii whether these companies feel they can get away with this because the people have less political power.
5:26 am
hello and welcome to cross talk we're all things considered i'm here lavelle the legal saga of geoffrey epstein has become a spectacle that is lucrative cleft bait for the media and of course the accusations against epstein are being used to entrap his social circle through guilt by association but what about justice this is on trial to. cross talking predatory elites i'm joined by my guest brian joyce in chattanooga he is host of the brian joyce show in west palm beach we have dr jean allowed in she is a psychology expert as well as a trump 2020 media advisory board member and in. athens we cross to alex cruciform
5:27 am
he is the director and writer for the duran dot com all right jet gentlemen and lady jump in anytime you want that's the whole point of the program alex let me go to you i'm going to ask probably the broadest possible question you can about this whole saga what is this story about and why now alex. i don't think i can answer that question peter because we're still finding out so busy much but i will tell you that this story is about a mysterious man that we really don't know nothing about and that is jeffrey epstein i mean we're just now starting to learn who this guy was and one thing is very clear peter he is not a billionaire hedge fund manager i think that's becoming obvious now what we have and what we know is that we have this guy who was 20212223 years old he was a math and physics teacher at the dalton high school in new york from there not he
5:28 am
went to bear stearns and then from bear stearns we have a complete blank we have this guy who was at bear stearns and left under suspicious circumstances and then all of a sudden became this billionaire with this incredible busy social circle and black book rolodex of the who's who in new york city in hollywood and in d.c. and now we have to learn who this guy is if we understand the man we're going to understand the crime ok i wonder if we're ever going to learn who the man is here because he's already gone on trial for similar allegations and got off and that is a mystery in itself and that is unfortunately for president trump close to him in his administration gina i mean in watching the media coverage of it all i mean there is an enormous amount of spin going on here this guilt by association of course there with they're going after donald trump here i mean correct me if i'm wrong here but rushed. the hoax failed now they've come up with another story. i
5:29 am
think it's pretty clear to say that this is this obscene is a pretty awful human being you should have been in prison a long time ago is getting a lot of protection seemingly but is it because the left wants another bite at the apple and they've come up with this story because it's so lurid it's so disgusting and it's so click of a beta bull that people are going to follow the story instead of the real issues like i try to do on this program gino go ahead and west palm beach well it's a much like the russian hoax and fact that the only collusion that has actually come out of the russian hoax as you know is that there were democrats colluding all over the place with foreign governments and so this i think will turn out to be much the same honestly we had president trump more than 10 years ago kicked epstein out of all of his properties based upon the report of one father to president trump privately one father came along and said i don't like the way he approached my daughter president trump said you're gone you're off all trump properties for ever
5:30 am
and they've been completely alienated from one another ever since so to try to draw this close to trump is as ridiculous as it is to try not to draw it to former president clinton because we have pictures of president clinton more than 26 legs of flights in route and back from this island where all of this cilicia took place and so it doesn't surprise me that the democrats are trying once again not to put it on a truck but to deflect from their own guilt remember that jeffrey epstein is a major donor and that president trump as candidate trump in 2015 at c pac when interviewed by sean hannity said when he was asked about bill clinton he said he better keep his distance from epstein because i'm telling you what that ship's going down so he's been warning about epstein for more than a decade to try to tie this to him is as ridiculous as trying to present.
