length of pretending they were actually against violent protests despite months of riots and violent b.l.m. demonstrations and outs at the asco the season the sort of thing that's supposed to happen in america this. this banana republic that we're watching happen this is what you expect to see in a banana republic journalists with equally confused that feeling of disbelief seemed to grip them to surreal i feel like i'm talking to a correspondent reporting from the you know bogota c.n.n. quickly became the subject of ridicule online as they haven't been attempts to storm the colombian parliament in decades twitter also had a stellar movement listing one why do venezuela's self-proclaimed president among the leaders who condemned what happened in capitol hill who won why do over the past few years has repeatedly attempted the violent seizure of power attacks an

army base and even climbed over the parliament fence himself. what happened will stay in america's record for good this isn't something that you can just forget the halls of congress to thaw out and the terrible precedent since . well it's not only politician saying parlous of countries that washington brown's undemocratic are some of the views being expressed on the street around the world. hope it's like a civil war kind of like science fiction. up there in the past the united states was a model of development and democracy but we can't say they're a model of democracy anymore. this is totally unacceptable because it means excuse the term to spit on what is supposed to be the constitution the will of the people to spit on the image of a civil state in 2021. and one that they claim that they have democracy for their
1:12 pm
own people but i would call it a false democracy because it doesn't exist and it's all made up the only try to show a bad image of our countries saying that our countries are not developed and disorganized these very. pro-american references to a banana republic harkens back to the charms of colonialism when the us invaded get out which is 14 salim's in the beginning of the 20th century they want to project that this is a pristine democracy because how can the justify tensions with. one mosque down. in holcim in a city if they don't have their old house in order for us let's be very clear we're talking about a democracy for the plutocrats and technocrats and big capital big money then yes the united states is
1:13 pm
a democracy if we're talking about democracy by and for the people not by and for the rich the ruling class. in the united states is a disgrace insurance a very serious measure of democracy. donald trump has been allowed to tweet again after being locked out of his account for 12 hours the media platform gave the outgoing president a final warning saying any future violations of twitter's rules would result in a permanent ban on another tech behemoths facebook extended its suspension of trump's a conference at least 2 weeks meaning no more posts from trump until power has been transferred to joe biden a company boss mark zuckerberg defended the move over the last several years we have allowed president trump jizo platform consistent with our own rules at times removing content labeling his posts when the violates of policies but the current
1:14 pm
context is not fundamentally different involving the use of a platform to incite violence insurrection against a democratically elected government. spite the tough line from social media john some think it's not enough former 1st lady michelle obama called in silicon valley firms to boycott the president for life. knows the dime for silicon valley companies to stop enabling the small strip behavior and go in further than they have already but then end this man from their platforms and put in place by all this is to prevent that technology from being used by the nation's leaders to fuel insurrection. delighted to welcome onto the program live now who you are vera editorial director of reactionary times dot com unfettered bindi frederick is professor of political science at the top university of rome you're both very welcome federica can we kick off with you freedom of speech is guaranteed it's the
1:15 pm
1st amendment it's the court tent in the united states is facebook playing a dangerous game by taking the unprecedented move of banning a democratically elected president. there is a feline i mean freedom of speech is granted sibylle a shiny invitation to violence that is a completely different thing this is why i think facebook did the right choice inside president tramp these weeks but i don't think it would be possible to stop him from poor life. mark zuckerberg may have just heard and they're accusing double trump of inciting a violent insurrection he's all alone in the but he also added undermining the peaceful transition of power i suppose the point is his platform his rules exactly and you know one of those things and we talked about this a couple of weeks back as far as facebook changing actually to
1:16 pm
a publisher as of october 1st so technically from a legal perspective they do have the right to do and take the actions that they have but what they're doing is they're going ahead and expressing a message to the american people and to a lot of these other silicon valley giant that it's ok to go ahead and censor a speech that you do not agree with and that is contrary to the spirit of the 1st amendment in america and contrary to the spirit of free speech let me tell you something new and audio i've watched this entire process from the beginning of the pandemic to where all these democratic states in the united states of america and it boils down to the way that this election was actually administrated you know once they went ahead and opened it up to the mail ballot there were several 1000 instances there were documented through affidavit that were submitted in all these
1:17 pm
court cases that there was voter fraud you know and i'm sorry that could be an opportunity no he could have been an opportunity to change and not take the election to what it should have. but that we're past that point but to go ahead and disparage a sitting president and you have all these people coming out calling for the 25th amendment let's remove president from from office and all of these things is contrary to the spirit of free speech in america and listen to what happened at the capitol just days ago that the now of the ice ironic people will not be restrained in this matter. what you are saying you are completely going out of the topic which was facebook to begin with 2nd it's an idea that was already a travesty elect. me to all of these things were bad to me to look secondly the election was not wreaked there where crazies brought
1:18 pm
a bit too of course and they were all dismissed by didn't you didn't buy the democrats elected president. last fair and square and leave we had to eat these aspired to democracy it's time you win it on your last and he lost and he lost fair and square and this has nothing to do with all your face ok hold on hold on no you don't let me get a lot of federal. part of your speech for you he said not why we're even if you hold on both frederick i want to put a point. on her little not another state so you hold on. let me just hold on of mary's for one moment both of whom pandemic in equal protection was not really a whole lot of ranted to the american voter federica is it not a slippery slope the social media giants have global reach for consistency's sake will they not have to adopt the same policy in other countries when someone is
1:19 pm
accused of trying to bring done a government they're going to have to do that. so to begin with the problem with social media is that they have to comply with the french rules for instance in many european countries hate speech violent speech you know nancy nancy seem bolds those that are dying out from crimes that are either lies going so. well you're going if you're taking it there. you are of the one percent that there were not involved with tom i didn't. say that you're just bringing that up you're back to me i'm just saying what they were not the scene builds their way on to do seem bold and i mean with the people that assad the assad that the capital so these are all they were you know that's how you verify what we can accounts about federica just going to other military. yes they were and jules you know we will
1:20 pm
care we tell you kyra conferring that we have to take that away but growing your other point of view i find it for you and i'll go with your other point so what i'm saying is that social media still has to comply with difference all the different countries are right and the rules in europe and already more stringent than they are in in the u.s. treasons all right so it's the problem is not the election the problem is that tramp addressed these people and he did them to march on the capital and this is intimidation and violence with peace and conditional there's nothing wrong with the march you've got one more on that was not good for the road going in and then getting sick that was not a peaceful protest there was a very violent protest which left 4 people die that that was not a peaceful process proudest at all i don't recall a preschool process one that you know smashes windows get inside you know what if
1:21 pm
if that happened on the new york shots that were fired. that it was the police didn't respond soon enough and strong enough because had these had been any or anywhere else the police and army would have sent the people back ok ok who really oh is this going to add fuel to accusations that facebook has simply become too powerful it's abusing its monopoly position and things must change. yeah absolutely facebook has become way too powerful and listen this whole situation where you have it's not just facebook it's of the mainstream media and i'm very afraid because i just got the platforms off with you 2. on new year's eve they actually took the reactionary times facebook channel away and i'm afraid if you extrapolate that to a larger sense let's talk about the f.c.c.
1:22 pm
. is going to be stepping down the f.c.c. controls terrestrial television terrestrial radio what's going to happen to conservative talk radio which is the largest. segment of the talk radio market in america are they going to suddenly start the platforming stations did carry people like rush limbaugh sean hannity all the major conservative talk boyce's in america are they going to be silenced suddenly you know all the rules are changing and they're changing in real time you have a democratic party which is shown a lot of tendencies which lean towards fascism now have absolute power they have the house they have the senate and they have the white house where does it end ok or will we have to say there's of course no link between democratic party and fascism the self clearly federico no. fredricka it's an interesting point though that's made the $74000000.00 people who voted for donald trump when they see the president d. plus 4 and isn't this simply going to add to
1:23 pm
a further sense of alienation of another credibly tense time already it is it is possible and that's why i said in the beginning when i started that i don't think you can be banned for life as it was suggested that they probably did mom and is really tensed and the problem is and they repeat that turned insipid to hate and violence he says nothing to do with cancer but he says you're not you know any. no it's not my opinion on the i'm afraid. you know they're out there 300 of the 100 you know the other liberal leaning you know biden friendly i guess media listen that there was a big difference and i don't know of when was the winner if you want to but you know there was a big difference between the way the media treated president barack obama and the way they treated president trump and i think we're already seeing that slant going back towards allow labarre to see what do the rate what the federal budget look
1:24 pm
here i mean if you're going to reply to that as a letter with the federico head for the last 4 years i don't give a situation which just had to really work we were not even the barack obama that he was a response and i'm sorry i'm not i'm not participating in these anymore go ahead i do have the floor and. all right if you say that president trample was treated differently then then obama you have to give me the facts the numbers. were 9 lives on the line from last year's don't be watching t.v. in the last 4 years how could you say that there were not treated differently even me down on the rock obama does not act another dreams rose in a journalist and i had him had his phones bugged they blowed up ok well ok fred ok we're actually going to map it but i give it a lot of time to check and said ok you know that's going to hold all right well we're out of time federal gets a lot of day seconds do you. i think we need to say what's things i'm not saying
1:25 pm
everything is great actually not the problems you are admitting that i think but what the president trampas done inciting people on the back in the capital was really going to anybody who didn't. know anything about going on with you and threatening teenage ok we just finished we're completely out of time both of you thank you very much for a spirited debate we could have gone on for quite a while editorial director of reaction times dot com who you refer federica bindy professor of political science at the tourer gallatin university of rome thank you both thank you so much. ok to more world news less fit in as much of can here hospitals in the british capital are being swamped by coronavirus patients after a sharp surge in cases prompting the city merde to the current major incident and the government for help shoddy story. well we've covered 19 things can change very

1:27 pm
a major incident so too was the westminster and london bridge terror attack as well so this really shouldn't be taken lightly plus in the past week we have seen sorry on the sussex areas declared major incidents as well what a major incident really means then is that various emergency services can now club together to help alleviate the pressures that are going on in the capital so now we're seeing around 100 firefighters jumping in to help the emergency services and driving ambulances throughout the capital plus we're seeing even the metropolitan police offering their support as well so that it can then is calling on the prime minister to introduce even further measures but what more does it have the card really want considering the fact that the united kingdom is in a full scale national lockdown while london message to car and wants to see even places of worship closed as well but this major incident may come as a surprise to some but not all especially not those. on the front line here he says
