this is the economic it's corporate profit. you. know this is the morning's headlines facebook's power is questioned again amid accusations of censorship and stifling free speech as its oversight board of the holds a ban on donald trump will tell him all. this to tempers fraying the waters off jersey with britain is sending its navy to the island toad for another smalling as friends france threatens to pull the plug on electricity and fishermen threaten the blockade the local paul. nato starts its largest exercises in decades in albania with officials claiming they are transparent and defensive despite their being right on russia's doorstep.

good morning live from artie's world news h.q. you're in moscow kevin owen here with me this 6 of may with the headlines in more detail than 1st better news donald trump won't be posting on instagram or facebook any time soon it appears their oversight board as upheld a ban it imposed on the ex-president after the capitol hill riots in january a move that reignited the whole debate about free speech online caleb maupin reports. now the facebook oversight board said that they give facebook 6 months as a corporation to determine an appropriate penalty for donald trump while they are currently upholding the ban they are passing on to the corporation whether that ban should be permanent how exactly that should continue many look at this is almost a good cop bad cop routine here's what we heard from the oversight board the board's phones the 2 posed by mr trump on junior the 6th so we leave it to thies

books community standards and the instagram's community guidelines given the seriousness of the violations and the ongoing risk of violence facebook was justified even suspending mr trump's accounts on general the 6th and extending the suspension on generally the 7th however it was not appropriate for facebook to impose an indefinite suspension now the facebook oversight board which has been referred to widely as the supreme court of facebook was created at the decision of mark zuckerberg the chief of facebook however he does not control it though it's funded by the facebook corporation its decisions are said to be independent of what the private corporation wants now the ban on donald trump was imposed after the january 6th capital riots and at that point mark zuckerberg said that donald trump would remain off facebook to ensure a peaceful transition of power however 2 weeks later donald trump was out of the white house joe biden had taken the oath of office donald trump remained off

facebook and that has been the case for 4 months for 4 months donald trump has not been on facebook major social media outlets have banned him donald trump reacted to today's decision by the facebook oversight board calling it a disgrace and here's what we heard from trump what facebook twitter and google have done is a total disgrace and an embarrassment so the country these corrupt social media companies must pay political. rice must never again be allowed to destroy and does some 8 electoral processes now donald trump at this point has set up his own web site in order to communicate with his supporters who will be posting and updating his own website just as he once did with twitter and facebook now the case raises lots of big questions about this facebook oversight boards and how its decisions are reached and it should be noted that back in 2019 mark zuckerberg said that it really shouldn't be private corporations that are censoring politicians in what i

believe is that in a democracy it's really important that people can see for themselves what politicians are saying it's that they can make their own judgments and i don't think that a private company should be censoring politicians or news so than trump's new site created an account on twitter where it was reposed to messages despite the account insisting it wasn't actually himself tweeting it was quickly suspended. twitter c.e.o. jack dorsey to remove it started trending. former trump campaign advisor current and america's host chris hedges shared their views about the dangers digital monopolies pose to free speech. they have created these digital monopolies which should be broken up if they can do it to head of state like trump they can do it to a head of state like merkel or somebody else that they don't like what they really want to shut down or any critics on the right or the left of neo liberalism of

corporate capitalism of the crimes of imperialism and. we just it's not a world that we want to enter because it essentially snuffs out the free flow of information we must remember they know everything about us we know nothing about them and it sets a very dangerous precedent now it's a whole new paradigm and one that i find very terrified i think this should actually terrify every single american any single citizen in the free world because we're looking at. a private corporation who is operating as a platform and one day and a publisher the next day they can have have it both ways but apparently they are right now these individuals. whether they are the c.e.o. of the company or a board were representative of of the company itself to meet these decisions to silence americans or elected officials and only becomes. a question of

free speech we have a corporation an american corporation that is arguably more important and more powerful than elected representatives. post rex it fishing rights escalating with jersey at the epicenter the british government's now send the wrong navy to the coast solve its island off to france threaten to cut electricity off and local fishermen protested the waters between france and jersey have been shed fishing territory for hundreds of years but now last couple of days new arrangements have really shaken things up badly and seems shallow do bensky explains. paris london heads a fishing rights in british waters the noise out of french minister has no threaten to plunge the u.k. jersey into a dog unless french trawlers continue to have access. provides

free tell you term measures and these measures of retaliation we are ready to use you know france has means they are inscribed in the agreement and so far as jersey's concerned i'll remind you for example of electricity transportation by undersea cable so we have the means and even if i regret that we could get to this point it will get there if we must. with france supplying almost all of the island's electricity this is a serious warning the electricity from france travels through here not to go and see as well so that. you know hospitals etc would be left without electricity really really. sort of threat to my it's a very draconian. measure and it's not the only threat coming from france the u.k. is expecting a number of authorizations from us on financial services we will not give any until

we have guarantees that's when fisheries and other issues the u.k. respects its commitments its give and take each side should respect its commitments otherwise we will be as brutal and difficult as necessary under the brig's that deal french vessels have the right to continue fishing in british waters if they had done so before the u.k. left the e.u. what's causing problems now is the required proof to show that french a fisherman claim that they are having problems obtaining licenses. were discovered that he had given a number of authorize a sense but even more so they have put in place conditions for the right of fishing conditions that limit us to today's conditions that limit the number of days we can fish in the year limitations and fishing gear for the fishing zones they have been created all of a sudden without saying anything without warning anyone and without going through

thistle channels with this ng measures suddenly everyone discovers the drop on except a bill for certain conditions economically on bearable for french norman and breton fishing companies to complicate matters while jersey is a u.k. crown dependency it's responsible for its own waters and the island's fishermen think that they are the ones that get. during the rough end of the deal you know the e.u. purports to stand by the. regulated controlled fishing and protection of indigenous fishermen and yet we have had a massive fleet of really big fishing you know waters at the same time the boats have been prevented from landing there catch back into it it just seems. it's almost all these are the rich that we stand by but it doesn't really matter so much to a little island like jersey tensions have been rising for some time now with claims

that only 22 from 120 boats that were from or to france region have been given access leading to a blockade in the port of blowing so mad. the u.k. denies these claims saying the licenses have been issued to all 87 french vessels that have applied for them and met the criteria well more than 40 boats have been specifically authorized to fish in jews' ease waters. as the realities of brigs it sinking jews the islanders and french fishermen alike it seems have been left trawling for answers jollity been ski arty paris. or more and more of this 15 months of a key bone stomach pains and headaches have left one mother terrified for his son's welfare is just one parents sounding the alarm about the british government's

approach these days to long cove in the family a sure that should be paying greater attention to. everything back. down. to. oh mark his acting. and i'm sure they're looking and i know wow and that may have. the issue maybe not such a degree of my son's guards or some other kids i mean there's a lot while the my son the government got 2 children you get one this virus and that we need for children this effect centers that we can take our children to get the or and the diagnosis that they need. and the support that they need if it can mean mentally and emotionally and that is what we need here in

the u.k. well long covert involves a range of symptoms and complications that still occur several months after and folks in among them for teague head thinking coughs skin rashes and suddenly the list goes on each patient has their own set and for the moment it's still pretty unclear how long it all lasts further according to the office for national statistics over a 1000000 people in the u.k. reported long covert symptoms in march with many experiencing at least one symptom for 12 weeks but the percentage of kids is comparatively low compared to other age groups party born-again says the main problem is no one quite knows how to act at the moment. as a mom when you see your son really suffering and there is no way of him getting back you feel helpless no dogs really know what to do and the problem you have in brief non-coverage is that it's not one system that affects it it's various systems

you need to your heart's its you need. a task and charlotte if you need to. you know you need to be along with all the different people and the problem you have is the one deal with everything you can all go in but if people and it's light you want them to join up the dots but they're not an achievement it all. major nato military exercises are kicked off and albania defending europe's an annual event but this year's drills are supposed to be the largest in decades what is more goes to of says the reasons for it are not hard to guess nato immediately after calming down and russia with the propaganda equivalent of fire and brimstone for their ring to stage a snap military exercise has followed suit with the biggest nato war games the continent it seen in 3 decades but it's different they say you just don't

understand. i'm going to continually talk about what we're doing it's called transparency it's a wonderful thing and we're not getting that at a mosque alan and we and we haven't so that's a big difference right there is the defensive exercise which is you know a lie straight and in your face they do many takes a cursory look at the brochure or a visit to a u.s. embassy website for all their talk of russian aggression that isn't russian paratroopers practicing and sense of operations in mexico along the border with texas it's american paratroopers dropping deep into simulated enemy territory and al is drive from russia's very real border has.

the scoop that the 6 assad's exhaust they were announced well ahead across 16 nations near enough 30000 nato troops thousands of vehicles ships and jets will pound away at targets and dummies to send a message usually you don't say to who it's understood but again ukrainian officials to the rescue ukraine by the way also taking part in these war games with the purpose of the exercises from the baltic to the black sea is to train and let us speak plainly for war with russia. the thing is every year these nato war games get bigger and bigger more hardware more countries more american troops somehow defending themselves closer and closer to russia's borders drills are

getting bigger too and we know how irritable nato gets when someone outs there's hold large military exercises there all who are concerned about a massive military buildup on. russia the most and this miserable dog per. person provocations. escalates the level of hysteria that followed the crimean military exercises was deafening it was everywhere and on everything how dare russia do this in the general vicinity of nato countries and not for a moment since all before has nato even conceived it our other countries feel when american troops are practicing invasion scenarios kilometers from their borders. from all of this thursday morning cavity a good morning coming up a new poll finds that around the world the biggest c.

threat to democracy is supposed to be the bacon of america we'll tell you.

so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race in this spearing dramatic development only. exists i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical. usage. in. israel's president now was asked opposition leader to form a new coalition government after prime minister benjamin netanyahu missed a midnight deadline to form one it's led to rampant speculation now that this is the end maybe of his political road for the pm his artie's pulis leader with the latest for you this morning. these really president rules and rivlin has tasked the

leader of the opposition and the leader of the haitian active party yet period with forming the next government he has stated that he faces many challenges but he is confident that can do this the problem is that liquid attracts a whole cross spectrum of political parties with many differences between them but the one thing that unites them is the fact that they are all ante natal yahoo however the current polls suggest that people get only 56 out of what he needs 61 mandates to form that majority coalition government the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu had 28 days to form a government and was unsuccessful in doing so i mean the truth is simple this will be a dangerous left wing government a lethal combination of incompetence and irresponsibility has approached enough to be bennett is the leader of the young men at the right party now he come in he has

7 mandates and the people has offered to make him prime minister taishan if he comes on board with him been interested he will but already one of those 7 mandates has to lift and it is expected that another 2 worlds so this is certainly something that the israelis are following closely been it has said that he calls on all right wing parties to support and appeared as a pains to point out that he represents the cross spectrum obvious rabies after 2 years of political paralysis israeli society is hers and our unity government isn't a compromise or a last resort it's a goal that's what we need we need a government that will reflect the fact that we don't hate one another if that period is not able to form a majority coalition the mandate to form the next government will then return to the israeli president rooted we've learned and. he even goes back to the israeli

parliament they don't have 2 choices after they can call for another general parliamentary election this will be the 1st that this country is holding in just 2 years or they can hold an election for the prime minister now if indeed an election is held amongst the public for the prime minister poll suggests that netanyahu will win so it's a little bit too soon to write this one yahoo out of the history books. america has been named the world's biggest threat to democracy despite being touted as its supposed beacon of course a poll conducted by the alliance of democracies foundation placed it above china and russia the organization was founded by and is fog rasmussen the former nato secretary general so more than 50000 people from 53 countries took part in this survey we're talking about 44 percent of respondents agreed washington's influence was a threat they thought china came 2nd and russia 3rd all the same the u.s.

so could you state along with his british counterpart on monday singled out beijing and moscow as malign influences. responding to a situation where our values are being challenged the international architecture is at least in some respects being weakened together our 2 countries recently took measures to prevent british and american businesses from inadvertently supporting forced labor in iran and elsewhere and china will continue our robust cooperation to address the atrocities and. crackdown on pro-democracy activists and politicians in hong kong which breaches china's international commitments and the repression of media freedom across china and other parts of the world i also want to thank the united kingdom for joining us in holding russia to account for its reckless and aggressive actions historian author gerald holden told us public support for washington's place these days is on the way including in europe. people across the

globe are not naive and they come to the simple conclusion that the united states is the bully on the block obviously they're seeking to launch a new cold war not only against china but against china and russia combined it's part of the psychological makeup of those who rule that understates to be the leading country on planet earth and they see that now eluding their grasp and so they want to take down china by any means necessary and there is also opposition to russia because russia will not go along with this new cold war against china i think that poll results of just that it will be difficult to launch that new cold war because international public opinion is not only hostile to the idea but i think in europe in particular there is or knowing and growing realisation that the united states would like to fight china and russia to the last european and i don't

think the europeans are sufficiently naive to go for that bad bargain. main european commission says it plans to tighten foreign investment rules in the block at a particular rooting out unfair competition from china when you open your home to guests then of course i think you as i expect your guest to treat your belongings your furniture. as as as you would do just self is the same sense of care because they are at your guests and this is the same without seeing the markets we want every company that operates in europe no matter where it comes from to respect our house rules and one of the oldest rules that we have is that we don't allow subsidies which harms fair competition. the president of the european commission pointed out that the proposed measures to ensure a level playing field within the block it's been prompted by a recent surge of foreign takeovers all the you companies and also fears of

a further buying spree of firms who share prices have dropped during a pandemic the commission intends probing takeovers with $250000000.00 euro or more and also wants to examine deals that involve foreign subsidies however all this is yet to be agreed by e.u. member states and companies are expected to lobby hard against it it also comes as a massive investment deal is suspended over human rights concerns in china one political analyst we spoke to told us the e.u. isn't targeting beijing specifically but this step may lead to restricted access to the chinese market. the proposal is not directed at china explicitly it does convey consider the implications for trade with china but there are other concerns at work as well for example from when he was in office and the kate and inclination towards the new nationalization of certain distrait those related to ai 5 g. and chips for example and the trend we see now is toward the type of national industrial

policy in the us under by you with broad bipartisan support from congress that's a problem that surviving sooner rather than later and this proposal that we're saying would not only deal with china but also that potentiality there's also a problem of double standards both in direct and direct european subsidies for european companies have been substantial pre-code but also during the public crisis what this means for overall trade is on clear but each of these factors risk undermining trade relations broadly and may end up restricting european access to the chinese market and that is a wrap for not so much more policy telkom i have a socialist one is kevin 0 in for me in the tame what have you doing to help you have a great. so

what males have tended to do and still do is we tend to we certainly have empathy all of that but we also tend to who'd nurture through aggression so we create things like like us soccer and football and you know all of the various hundreds of games that involve aggression now women are aggressive and can play those games no doubt very well but when you go back to why they were created those genes were created for males to nurture other males through aggression to teach them how to be empathic through aggression. to start to and to cause or at least so the need for good in each other than the human. but on the better side going to the quickly use muscle that is dismissed. instead of. removed from learning

2 months ago if you will still be stuck or your muscles from your course your media which uses to. use just. chill the chip. business to compassion. we think he minds be soviet soldiers because also the boots he's wearing. to church so the sold out so to move the opposing opinion was with building the new i'm going to show stuck with summarizing the police force to just hold the. israel media reflection of reality.

in a world transformed. what's going to make you feel safe. isolation thank you betty. are you going the right way or are you being led so. that history. is. in the world corrupted you need to descend. to join us in the debt. or a made in the shallow. greetings and salutations blowback from president obama the rise of white nationalism vocal white supremacy i do the politics and populism all culminated in

don't trust 2016 presidential victory that moment fed into a widening polarization and weighty attacks on minority groups a blitz against the l g b t community group across republican led states today $33.00 states have introduced more than $100.00 bills aimed at the trans community the majority of these bills our leaders are focused on children and brace yourselves for the discrimination taxpayer dollars are funding like those preventing trans kids from using the restroom or locker room that matches their self identification bans on participating in same gender you've sports outlawing gender affirming health care and more the bills are aggressive and vary by state in florida the house passed a bill allowing for general inspections of trans athletes you heard that right general inspections of children a bill in texas would allow the state to remove a trans child from their parent's home.
