facebook was 14, when a man of about 30 message to sunni methodically, he groomed her psychologically conditioned her for 2 years later, she would find herself in a motel room being raped by strangers or another girl, or $214.00, the predator. groomed her advertised on instagram traffic is used, instagram's arrange dates as results. plaintiff was raped numerous times following plaintive rescue from the trafficking scheme. traffic is continued to use her profile to attempt to entrap the mind is in the same manner. plaintiff's mother report to these activities. facebook, which never responded. the trio now suing facebook are and normally many boys and girls. they never speak out because a fear because of a better estimate than shame. they could be your kids, my kids defenseless, against the bedroom, predator who prays on psychologically vulnerable. kids news,
6:03 pm
their weaknesses, the amount of sex traffic on facebook and instagram, which owns these booth astonishing and revolting. the internet is a major platform for traffickers to recruit, sex traffic and victims, and solicit buyers of commercial sex in 202059 percent of online victim recruitment in active sex traffic and cases occurs and facebook page books, lawyers shouts about section $230.00. so section $230.00 is a law which states that online platforms cannot be held responsible for the words or actions of the users. which makes sense, if you shut down every website where someone says something offensive, there wouldn't be an into that left. except of course, facebook may have been complicit, holding into platforms accountable for the words or actions that they use is one thing. and the federal precedent uniform. it, it states that section 230 does not allow it's holding into that puff, accountable for the old misdeeds,
6:04 pm
is quite another thing. this is particularly the case for human trafficking. what do you have to do with a trafficker messages? someone through direct messages have moderators read every single private message that uses exchange. and facebook says that it's doing what it can. sex trafficking is apparent and not allowed on facebook, who continues to fight against the spread of this content, and the predators who engage in it. except facebook really isn't putting up much of a fight. and the traffic isn't the p that fall using facebook. a much more brazen than you would think. plaintiff was 15 years old in 2012 when she was friend it by end of the facebook user, with whom she shared several mutual friends. the user profile feature to photograph the scantily clad young women in sexual positions with money stuffed in their mouths, as well as other deeply troubling content. according to reports,
6:05 pm
these pimps and traffic is even by up advertisement on facebook's platforms which facebook apps and does approve and makes money on. now go the argument that facebook is complicit in under age sex trafficking, se louis representing the victims, and the courts agree we do not understand section $230.00 to create a lawless, no man's land. on the internet in which states a powerless impose liability on websites that knowingly or intentionally participate in the evil of online human trafficking. if the case succeed, facebook and other online johns will have a much tougher tab of hiding behind pieces of paper with section $230.00 stamped and them claiming defied sex trafficking, even as they profit from hosting p, the fall pages and running, grooming ads. know if this case succeeds, facebook will actually have to start fighting the 6 trafficking industry that has made its platforms a home. and the thing is that facebook comes under so much hurt me because they
6:06 pm
have this powerful censorship apparatus as are cooperated to monitor every little thing happening on their site. and they choose to ignore the really agree just stuff and go over the political things to they're too busy removing. i mean jokes and any sort of speech that's sensitive, delicate, like when people might find offensive when. meanwhile, there's actual crimes apparently occurring on their side. it's really bad, piano, facebook and it's good reason or, you know, parents see the store is they're going to want their kids on instagram. facebook, rightly so. it's scary, spatial doesn't like press like this at all. they're, they're very scared of it. and especially where people are concerned, they obviously want to young people and parents because they want to rope and young people. they want to get them hooked on these platforms and keep them to the lifelong users. so facebook is going to want to clean it up. it's simply for p r. i would imagine you know, the story of the day, the u. s. department has issued a special trouble alerts warning. it citizens not to head to russia under any
6:07 pm
circumstances. it sites a whole host of reasons for the decision do not travel to russia due to terrorism, harassment, by russian government, security officials, the emphasis limited ability to assist us citizens in russia and the arbitrary enforcement of local law. your citizens may become victims of harassment, mis treatment, and extortion. all u. s. government personnel should carefully consider their need to travel to russia . basically what the state department has done. it's declared russia level for threat to be fair though. several countries have recently received this bump up to the threat level for including many in europe, but many of the most of those countries receive that level due to current covered 1900 concerns. in russia's case, however, the main threat, according to the state department, is terrorism and potential abuse by government officials. apparently, according to this, the state department terrorists are literally around every corner here in russia.
6:08 pm
terrorist groups, trans national and local terrorist organizations, and individuals inspired by extremist ideology, continues reporting possible attacks and russia. terrorists may attack with little or no warning targeting tories locations, transportation, hobbs, markets and shopping malls, local government, facilities, hotels, clubs, restaurants, places of worship, parks, major sport and cultural events, educational institutions, airports and other public areas. now, these statements, for many people who have been to russia, are especially live in russia. these statements are just ridiculous and absurd, nothing to do with reality. at least an everyday life in russia and just for context. this kind of implies that the state department is traveling to russia as dangerous as travelling to countries like a gas stance syria and libya literal, war zones. i think if i'd read this before coming here,
6:09 pm
i might stay for 15 years. dimitris to be honest, it's scary. stuff and terror, the terror threat. russia is not exactly the only country effected by that. is it? obviously not, of course terrorism does happen in russia, but kind of rarely, i mean, yes, we saw the situation because over a month ago. but more often, but not these stories about the headings, knife, attack, savings killings. they're not coming most of the time from russia. they're coming from countries like the us, the u. k. in germany, france. yet somehow, none of these countries have been designated as a whole for threats, apparently, according to the state department of the mythical threat. terrorists and russia is far greater than everything that's been happening in europe over the past few years . here's just a few examples of open to terrorism investigation after a police employee was stamped to death at the police station near paris. this is the 3rd terror attack in just over a month in french news tonight about the deadly terror attack outside of paris. perhaps we should point out that it's not that long ago that we're hearing about
6:10 pm
the term stable, unpredictable relations that bided ministration, seeing that's what they wanted with on from russia. how does that fit with these developments? well, basically just flies in the face of everything by demonstration has been saying the stuff we heard during the buying and summit. but it's not exactly surprising. sure, there's a lot of talk by this might administration about stable relations treating each other fairly. but in practice it turns out to be basically a game of double standards and flip flopping when whenever it comes to us relations and 1st we're friendly, then rushes, not enemy number one, and then it's a level for travel thread. and all this time, the vitamins ration keep things stuff like this. we see a predictable, stable relationship with russia. we want to stable predictable relationship. we're not looking to de escalate. we would prefer to have a more stable, more predictable relationship present food. and i had
6:11 pm
a share unique responsibility to manage the relationship between 2, our phone proud country's relationship has to be stable and predictable. all these statements, obviously sound lovely and there's a lot of people who do want russia and the u. s. to get along. but with gestures like this thread designation, it seems obvious that there is still a lot of people in washington who want to see russia as an enemy, as a fred and relation between the 2 countries have been on this kind of one step forward to step back kind of trend, and as long as that's the thing the relations probably won't get any better anytime soon, especially with the us constantly finding and making up reasons to describe russia as the bad guy in a bad place. well, the move also follows rushes decision to put the u. s. on its list of unfriendly countries. along with the check republic, former us marine corps intelligence officer, scott ritter, told us washington may say they want
6:12 pm
a stable relationship. but their actions have yet to demonstrate. clearly it's a political move because russia is not this dangerous, is afghans dance, syria and another nations that are engaged in ongoing conflicts? i believe it's more of a retaliatory measure taken in response to russia listing the united states as, as an enemy. the white house is very careful with this words. predictable and stable does not mean friendly. under no circumstances, does it mean friendly? means predictable and stable? united states has painted russia as, as an adversary, not as a friend. but what it wants to ensure is that, like perhaps during the cold war era where the united states and the soviet union were not friendly, were adversarial. there was a predictability and the stability and the relationship that allowed, you know,
6:13 pm
adversarial feelings and emotions not to spin out of control into actual conflict. so the, the goal here is to have the united states and russia talk so that there is predictability so that there isn't going to be a war. so that's there's stability, so there isn't going to be attending consequences. this doesn't mean where friends, where not united states has made it clear. it is not friendly with russia. it says in the future, it would like to be, but it's taking no steps in that direction. and you know, that's just the unfortunate reality of the times. we live in britain's maximum security belmore the prison, so quite the crowd on tuesday, a number of m. p. 's join supporters of julian, a sounds for a protest outside the facility where the wiki lexical funder is currently being held. the politicians handed in a cross party letter to the prison in which they called bell morse's refusal to allow a meeting with assault. protest comes after the main witness in the u. s. case against
6:14 pm
the sons reportedly admitted giving false testimony in exchange for unity from prosecution. we heard from the former leader of the u. k. opposition. german corbin, who was among those at the protest. i visited many prisons and many prisoners over all the years. i've been a member of parliament and is perfectly normal, the members of parliament granted with due process of facility. we now want a group of us to be able to talk to julian, probably by video link in order we can discuss his case and help to form our own opinions and encourage other members of parliament understand their role in what i hope will be a very strong campaigns, revenge his extradition away from this country. julian spent years in ecuador and embassy, and was then taken out the door. embassy is now in a maximum security prison. the case went to court. the court refused the request for extradition. therefore, at that point, the case of
6:15 pm
n doing or should have done. but instead, in the united states is give notice that he intends to appeal against this extradition and seek to take it back to the court of appeal and eventually presumed to supreme court. which would mean that he could be extra to the usa, where he would trace a minimum prison sentence of a 175 years. we have appealed to president biden, to not go ahead with this appeal to drop the case. so julian can be free and what was done today here at this maximum security prison in london, bell marsh is to ask 2 questions. one is the government. we consider her decision to refuse a private nature of members of parliament on a legal basis. for julie massage, and also to make the point that judy is somebody that stood up for the truth to around the world has helped us to understand what happening in so many other places
6:16 pm
around the world where the u. s. military on such terrible things. and we think he is a journalist of distinction often join the thing in egypt and mexican coward indonesia, in many other places. but suddenly it'll lead junior college as to i don't think he has spoken the truth about what has happened around the world. the biggest, ever a court case against pharmaceutical giants is underway in the us drug makers stand accused of aggravating the countries opioid crisis. our plan is to lay out all of the bad conduct that lead to the oh, good for them and that's, that's number one. certainly we want to establish, we want the jury to hear it. we want the jury to answer the question. this was a public nuisance. they caused riffing horrific damages to our community. that's what we want from this. from this trial. one form
6:17 pm
a giant won't be at the trial though. johnson and johnson has agree to $230000000.00 out of court settlement with new york. as part of the deal, it will settle related claims over the next 9 years and stop selling opioids in america. the company in 5th. so that isn't admission of wrongdoing, as it has been sold opioids since 2015 the opioid crisis that's being blamed on johnson and johnson and other drug makers who will some trial has caused a huge suffering in the country. it's killed almost half a 1000000 people. j and j as a cues of over prescribing drugs and causing addiction something the company denies it say's it distributed only the required amounts to people with medical issues. look, j nestor heads an organization that helps drug alex recover. he believes compensation for victims should be much higher. this should be a much bigger compensation,
6:18 pm
a half a 1000000 americans, that of perished remiss and many more families that have been destroyed by this addiction, which is at an epidemic level and continues to increase both in not only and over those depths, but in the spread of the contagion throughout the society. so is $230000000.00 adequate? absolutely not. a country in crisis violence once again rob, so the streets of columbia as a national strike, that's growing the nation to a whole, reaches it to month 3 and more few after the break the me, i

6:23 pm
a big obstacle and we are hearing some of our members saying that, oh but in check with people saying that. com and you're trying these for you not for us. so we don't have to bother. so you know, this is exactly the kind of dynamics which will not take us to climate neutrality because there is a sort of, you know, a routine responsibility on others. sure. nurse without really looking into how to require me when i, when all the phones that are available today, also putting a big black pull off on the blocks. green credentials is the recent approval of the new common agriculture policy. until 2027. the critics say that that puts 2 environmentally unfriendly fingers off the efforts to find the climate crisis. they say 3 quarters of the budget for intensive farming practices,

humanitarian license with more and more terrorist alliance could mean for the region where it's been a long time since you so made major international headlines so long. you could think it's been vanquished, but you'd be very wrong. the terrorist hydra is raising one of its has again, this time in africa, absorbing one of the most vile groups on the continent. boca hiram's sudden affection for i still didn't come out of nowhere. islamic state twisted the group into allegiance. iso fight is apparently cornered the leader of boca rum and he had to detonate the suicide belt he had on the us even had to clarify that islamic state militants involved in the killing were not eligible to collect the bounty. washington had placed on his head. how bad is that bocca rom is now part of iceland network. well,
