5:01 am
deeply ashamed after review, reveals thousands of victims done. seek justice victims of poor groups. those say it's too little too light to know, i don't think an apology alone is enough to heal to her as the victims and survivors who have been so terribly let down a devastating floods. leave one person dead and injured in southern rushes, crimea province, forties declared, a state of emergency. thousands evacuated from their homes. ah, hi there. thanks for joining us. mid day here in the russian capital. this is anti america, celebrating in new june 10th holiday, hit marks. the end of slavery in the country, the supreme court so, so just ruled force,
5:02 am
child labor in africa is not something us chocolate. john's culpable for which critics say smack. so we paul chrissy at liberty anchor explains the question, is slavery still something that troubles america today? well, here comes the answer from the president. remember, the moral stain, the terrible toll, the slavery took on the country and continues to take. so what's there to be done about that? as an athlete, you can take the knee and the name of black lives matter. as an activist, you can campaign for the reparations, for the ancestors of those who suffered or were killed as president, you can declare, june the 19th or june kings as federal holiday. that's exactly what the president did earlier this week. as the supreme court, you know, what else happened at the same time? the u. s. supreme court ruled american food giant's best play, usa and car gill can't be sued for child slavery. this ruling has disturbing
5:03 am
implications for future victims of human rights abuses, seeking justice against businesses in u. s. cords. the ruling also says a dangerous precedence, giving corporations impunity of a profiting from human rights abuses. it's an old and disturbing story that we've already reported on a group of african men demanded compensation from us corporations that get their cocoa in africa. they claimed they've been trafficked from one country to another as children, and forced to work as slaves and horrendous conditions on coca farms. the activist stores founding the alarm over the ivory coast effect to think of the country exports more cocoa than anyone else on the planet now providing about 2 thirds of the world's supply, which makes it very likely that the regular chocolate bar you eat taste of illegal child labor, but what if these accounts are fake?
5:04 am
well, only recently the u. s. department of labor funded a report which found that the cocoa industry in west africa was exploiting $1600000.00 charged laborers. e slaves without going into too many legalistic details, the nation's highest court, pulled the brakes on the case pretty much because companies outside the us bear the responsibility for mass abuse. you might want to ask why not at least look into the case? well that's how things are. that's how the law works. the big businesses will probably keep repeating things like, or i'm 99 percent. sure they will. child labor isn't acceptable. that is why we are working so hard to prevent it. cargoes work to keep child labor out of the co supply chain isn't wavering. we do not tolerate the use of child labor in our operations or supply chains and we're working every day to prevent it. expect even more emotional words from them,
5:05 am
from the athlete. the activists and the president on june kings, but those who have been following this particular case won't stand the hypocrisy. we are celebrate in the end of slavery, but american companies are still profiting off of slave labor. so it's up to you to celebrate or to reflect on the toll that joe biden mentioned. it needs to be illegal for american corporations to do business with anyone who uses child labor because they always say, well, they didn't work for us, it wasn't our farm. you can't blame us. this has to be tackled legislatively, other corporations to do great harm to people. they will, especially in the past year, they'll say black lives matter or someone will take a need. or they claim that they have an anti racist workplace when they don't. and this is one of many ways in which the u. s. is hypocritical on the issue
5:06 am
of human rights by allowing corporations have carte blanche to practice all kinds of terrible things all over the world. but money talks and the big corporations get the ear of politicians. so they're never held to account the way they should be. indigenous canadians have been given the right to use the traditional names on official documents spawn of a government effort to atone for decades of force to simulation. we spoke with indigenous human rights activists, lorelei williams, who told us in no way makes up for the atrocities the government committed. i've been trying to get my own inventions name, but yeah, it hasn't happened yet. i was supposed to get when my mom passed away. but you know, in that moment it was just too hard for me. i had to leave my moms as or when the
5:07 am
kids were taken to residential school. they actually were numbered. they, they had to go by numbers just why a small small staff that the government taking the government. oh, oh, much, you know, it was the government who made the decision to take the kids to take our languages to take our culture, to take our name, to try to kill our candidates genocide against our people. with the discovery of the 215 children class, they can't hide the truth any more. so i guess they're trying to make up for what they did by this is a wall wall staff, you know, a lot of our language is, are actually dying. a monday, the canadian government announced that indigenous names can be used in the original spelling for identity. and immigration documents that 6 years after
5:08 am
a report by the truth and reconciliation commission, condemned cultural genocide at schools and co for greater inclusion and recognition of the dignity of indigenous people. of the move comes following the grin, discovery of hundreds of a month graves at the side to perform a residential school. and you should more like on candidates. colonial pass schools were a part of a country wide network, came to the simulating indigenous children by forcibly removing them from the communities and forbidding them from performing cultural practices. physical and emotional abuse were prominent. it's candidates, residential schools. 2 8 8 8 8 8 every day, you mean patient fear did you have was it wasn't you today, it was going to be the target, the victim. you know, you weren't going to have to suffer any form of humiliation. he learned to cry
5:09 am
anymore. you just get harder. and yet you learn to shut down. ah, i couldn't talk a word of english. i tucked cree and i was abused for that hit and made to try to talk english. i lost my language. they threatened with the strapping you spoke it. within a year i lost all of it. i . 8 used to him, i in turn to the principal to take him to the hospital. he didn't. after about 2 weeks, my brother was in so much pain. he was growing up his mind. i pleaded with the principal for days to take him to a doctor. ah, to sexually take advantage of me and abuse me, not long. not too many, many people for a very long time until i was 16. i held everything in and didn't tell anybody for
5:10 am
20 years. starla williams again says little changed with indigenous people still exposed to systemic racism even today. this one school has definitely caught a lot of attention around the world. there's so many vision leaders that pass, woke up about this. i find when we, we speak up about there, we have to repeat herself over and over and over again. and it gets tiring. it's hard, work grateful that these children are being found. we always knew that they were there and it's not just those children. so this is lawana can start to see creates is there so much systemic racism against dell to be and this is exactly why our women and girls are indigenous women and girls to hear it are going to be murdered at a high rate, you know,
5:11 am
as an in business woman, we're still at the bottom here in canada, and these are our land. so the systemic racism has to stop you came ministers, have expressed shame over falling rape conviction writes a new review, reveal thousands of victims were denied justice officials apologize. but i to say that's not enough. it's unusual for government to express this kind of shame and admit and recognize the deep failings in the criminal justice system. but no, i don't think an apology alone is enough to heal the heads of the victims and survivors who have been so terribly let down. and i think that the real proof of the pudding will be in the eating, you know, the real difference and survivors will come if and when the proper measures are taken to improve the situation for the future. the long awaited review reveals more
5:12 am
than half of rape victims drop the case money out of fear, the $1.00 and a half percent of them see the suspected attack a charge. the review blames the failure on intrusive police probes court and investigative delays and inconsistent support for survivors. government says police and prosecutors will be schooled to raise the number of cases reaching caught. scorecards will measure the quality of the work and where the victims of satisfied the 1st results are set to be published by december. however, katie russell, again says short term measures aren't enough. other victims and survivors are likely to feel quite angry actually is if an apology is too little too late, because for them, of course, they haven't got criminal justice, they can't potentially been re traumatized by the system. we know we're talking about a long term systemic structural issue, a wholesale issue so, so small individual measures aren't going to,
5:13 am
on their own. be able to so situation. nobody doubts that very, very many lives have been seriously impacted negatively, impacted by sexual violence and abuse. in recent years and in this apology and this recognition, this review comes after very many years of campaigning for districts in crimea declared a state of emergency amid severe flooding, which is left at least one person dead and 18 others injured. almost 2000 people have been evacuated from the homes by emergency services. ah, with me we do to some of the people who had fled the affected areas and well each and every
5:14 am
one of them has told me that they do not recall anything of this scale. not even close in facts in the lifetime. the things that we have seen coming out of towns of casual yards for some towns, in fact small towns around them. they have been well quite apocalyptic, just told districts of towns submerged under water, cars floating around as if they were just, you know, motor boat and so on and so forth. so it has been quite unprecedented that people have been very severely affected by this. they weren't ready, of course, because he just con, you know, prepare for something like that. their homes ruined some lives completely going down the drain, excused upon and well right now, thousands of emergency work is working, in fact, trying to restore, to bring back to life, to bring back to some stability these areas. the governance of crimea has visited
5:15 am
both of the major towns effected was by the flooding. here's what he had to say to pick up. the situation is disastrous in many homes. those that are on the low lands have been flooded by water from almost the entire city of current shift. and unfortunately, the water is still up to the waist for the for now, our goal is to help everyone to that no one is left to face. this crisis alone, so no under statements, no mincing words on behalf of the crime in the government and out there is not a peninsula wide, but a very large scale of emergency declared here. again, thousands of rescue work as well tirelessly overnight trying to bring these areas back into some operational state. and the while the, the, this is just another problem. mounting on top of the people's shoulders in crimea, because previously people here had experienced
5:16 am
a shortage of where they basically they lacked an access to enough portable, drinkable and safe, clean water. and now that the rains have had, this is what you brainy and official, had to say. night to show you know that the crime in peninsula has been asking for water for a very long time. and there is so much water there today that they don't even know what to do with it. and yesterday encouraged him today and y'all to us, unfortunately, this happened there. the lord god gave them too much water in one goal so well, some very bitter sarcasm at the expense of people whose lives have been well completely washed away by the flood. now we are hoping to travel very shortly to these areas and observe the efforts of the russian emergency ministry as they are trying to help people cope with their loss and bring their lives back on track. move to a developing story now for people have died after
5:17 am
a short range. craft crash landed in camera. the region in central russia plain was counting a group of sky divers. 5 more passengers are said to be in critical condition with another 10 also injured to pilots. and to sky diving instructors were among those killed, according to local officials, the pilots reported an engine failure shortly before the accident. sled off the bill in the senate's adopt so controversial bill, making it mandatory for billings to be quickly. so the panels will last. berlin is what they think of it. after this break. the i

ah, dumbing us senate reporters reveal details of the systematic intelligence and communications failures leading up to the deadly capital hill stage. in january, it found law enforcement agencies including the f. b. i had intelligence about a possible, a tank one month prior to dismissed. it is not credible kellum open as the story. that's been 6 months since a mob storm the u. s. capital on january 6th. and while the investigation is ongoing, some politicians say they want answers and they have some interesting ways of saying it. and i certainly hope that our premier law enforcement organization is not actually working to violate federal law. so why bring the f b i into this? well, there's a theory floating around that the f b, i infiltrated the protesters and basically arranged the whole thing. and then
5:20 am
shifted the blame on to donald trump and his supporters. is there any possible truth in this? so let's dig deeper. it's certainly worth finding out why this has become a popular explanation of events. earlier this week, the u. s. senate just published a big report on the riots. here is some of what they found. need of the f b. i know the u. s. department of homeland security deemed online posts calling for violence of the capital is credible in testimony before the committee's representatives from both agencies noted that much of the rhetoric online prior to january. the 6th was 1st amendments protected speech of limited credibility and acknowledge areas for improvement. in handling and dissemination of threats, information from social media and online message boards to enhance law enforcement and intelligence agencies abilities to counter that threats. now we find out they did indeed have lots of information. they just didn't think it was relevant. the report goes on the united states, capital police, again, gathering information about the events plan for jenny, the 6 in mid december 2020,
5:21 am
through open source collection tips from the public and other sources. the u. s. c . p. intelligence and in agency coordination division. knew about social media posts calling for violence of the capital on july, the 6th, including a plot to breach the capital, the online sharing of maps of the capital complex, this tunnel systems, and other specific threats of violence. yet the i, c, d, did not convey the full scope of known information to us. c, p, leadership rank and file offices or law enforcement partners. so the secret service and police intelligence were aware of a possible but did not do anything and did not share this information. how could one be aware of the fact that a group of people was planning on storming the u. s. capital building and do nothing. looks like this report raises more questions than answers, kaleb mop and r t new york. the vertical ins warning terrorist groups in afghanistan could expand the reach after the u. s. polo, and pose, and international threats. it's an issue that was raised in the sen. how would you
5:22 am
rate the, the likelihood of international terrorist organizations like ok, the and i says regenerating inside of afghanistan and presenting a threat to our homeland our allies. i would assess it as medium. i would also say center that, but it would take possibly 2 years for them to develop that capability. there enough, gentlemen, i, i concur with that and i think that if certain other things happen, if there was a collapse of the government or dissociate, disillusion of the ap can security for that risk would obviously increase. but right now it's a medium and a about 2 years or so. and ahead of the pull out there already, science, the us banks and gang governments losing control of the country has to turn a bunch reportedly captured at least 27 districts. since the start of just last month, the military troops found to take the entire country and establish in islamic emerett of afghanistan in
5:23 am
a pool president joe barton place to remove all us true spine. september 11th, was pushed back from my 1st. the earlier deadline negotiated by donald trump and the taliban in march before the new deadline was set by biden, the pentagon promise that the us won't undertake a hasty or disorderly withdrawal, and that it would depend on the security situation in the country. and you are asked to respond back. i think some senior figures in the u. s. are looking for a pretext to stay in afghanistan. we see here is a tug of war between those 2 are insisting that the u. s. they for ever an afghan is then and those who feel that the war is not winnable, it's drain. it's not going to be. it's not going to alter the outcome. and they also make a differentiation between the taliban and should the television become the new government? yes, it would be the same kind of government, maybe with some slight variation from the way it was before september 11. but i
5:24 am
think it's important not to complete that with the isis or isis is in afghanistan because of the us invasion of afghanistan. there was no isis prior to 2001 and as a really we can for so obviously the military again. yes, there might be a need to continue us military presence. yes, there's a we m say, a medium warning that al qaeda or i can come back. but again, i think there's a tug of war here between those who want to have wherever war in afghanistan and those who say, look, it's time to end the war. the sen, berlin has passed the solar right. it requires the installation of solar power panels on the links roofs. the lower applies to new buildings, as well as existing ones in case of roof renovation. it's part of a plan to cover a quarter of the capitals electricity needs with. so the energy by 2050 was sent to apply for 2023, increase hefty penalties for violations. but his face also
5:25 am
a borrows of criticism, both from a position as well as the construction community. the present law will act as a brake, especially in the field for innovation. many home owners will think twice about whether roof innovation is actually necessary if they will be left with additional costs. berlin's ruling left wing coalition however says the law will take a big step towards climate neutrality. by tapping into the potential of city race, they emphasize the solar ranks. will also correct future proof jobs, especially in the areas of planning and craft opinion on the streets of berlin, though, is divided not going to cause it's a good way to help protected climates. and if we can use our roof services to do that, it's a good idea. you can use them yourself to reduce your own electricity bill. but i just sort of personally, i'm against it because i don't support the permanent regulations related to the environment. and nicole politics, i'm not ready to pay more, as long as there are new regulations connected to green and necco politics in
5:26 am
germany. that we should be getting money initially. but i think eventually we will be better off by investing enough to maybe do should be should be assistance from government. people that have base that maybe don't have the money. it would be nice if all rooftop solar panels we would produce much more energy with them. it would be great. it will pay off $1.00 day in 10 or 15 years. investments will be recruit, which is a good thing. i think the principal, i support the idea, but i do. politicians are always coming up with things that hardly make any sense what you're wanting to national thanks so much for your company. i'll return with updates in half an hour. me
5:27 am
look forward to talking to you all. that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given by human beings except when the shorter the conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about artificial intelligence. the point obviously is to create truck rather than fear take on various jobs with the artificial intelligence real summoning the demon a robot must protect phone existence as to what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have is crazy. plantation let it be an arms race is on, often very dramatic development. only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful,
5:28 am
a very critical time. time to sit down and talk i do it again. was like there was a little spirit, so you guys actually got an uncovered face men's clothing and showed a whole stuck. it's a kind of guy, feminism. its name is how camino bought it up, put a human someone with the whole mother that it was. it was a lot of up on the job, but you know, the one that gave me she lives in one of the most dangerous and patriarchal provinces of afghanistan cost when she was time, i miss that. sure. no, i shall do. but i haven't. i set up a new kid. i'm glad you got me knows that she does her best to fight for women's
5:29 am
rights. i am not i wonder what you guys don't as you know, what i do? i know that she's known him by her nickname. king. who was i got it. reco doesn't really go on there. i ah, me one of the worst ever mass shootings in america was in las vegas in 2017. the tragedy a close a little of the real last vegas, where many say elected officials are controlled by casino loaners. the dangerous shooting revealed what? the l v m p d really is. and now it's part of the stand machine. to the american public barely
5:30 am
remembers that it happens, but just shows you the power of money in las vegas. the powerful showed that true colors when the pandemic heard the most contagious contagion that we've seen in decades. and then you have a mayor who doesn't care. so here's caroline goodman, offering the lives of the biggest residents to be the control group, to the shiny facade concealer deep indifference to the people the vice could have been saved if they were to take an action. absolutely keep the registering and slot machines doing this is a money machine. it's a huge cash register that is ran by people who don't care about people's lives being lost. the.
