years enough, is it under her watch, the organization has been labeled, institutionally corrupt, because a daniel morgan case, institutionally sexist misogynist. and he already had the label of institutional racism. so the commission and now needs to move over. she's not the right person. we need somebody who can really focus and bring new energy to late in the metropolitan police service in the reforms that it needs facebook in the firing line on the challenges of creating the 1st ever fictional movie filmed in space. that's all ahead and use views cues next. ah, ah, when i was sure thing wrong. when i just don't know. i mean you have to shape out this thing because the african and engagement

equals the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground. imagine picking up a future textbook on the early years of the 21st century. what are the chapters cold, gun violence, school shootings, homelessness? first it was my job, then it was my family didn't was my savings. i have nothing. i have nothing and it's not like i don't try. i look for resources, i look for jobs, i look for everything i can to make this pass. and i end up doing is passing the road to the american dream paved with dead refugees. it's this very idealized image of this older america, native americans look past the depths that happen every single day. this is

a modern history of the u. s. a. my america con r t. join me every thursday on the alex salmon. sure. i'll be speaking to guess in the world of politics, sport, business, i'm show business. i'll see you then. mm. i'm here today because i believe facebook's products harm children, stoked division and week in our democracy. tonight, a facebook with the lower makes her appearance before congress. will this lead truthful media regulations are 360 panel will discuss. plus the u. k. working to fight cyber attacks. will it work? and major questions are circulating as an investigation is locked into exactly how top feds are investing and stocks all that and more on news. huge right here on our

t america. ah. good evening and thanks for joining us. i'm natasha sweet in pur, scotty. now hughes and major shake up within the world's largest social media platform. a former facebook employee has come forward with insight information about the company. less than 72 hours after a period on 60 minutes. francis hog and testified on capitol hill about facebook utilizing negative emotions among users to incite more interaction and profit on their platform. companies leadership knows how to make facebook and instagram saver, but won't make the necessary changes because they have put their astronomical profits before people. congressional action is needed. they won't solve this crisis without your help. now, as you, her hogan is calling on congress to step in. they gave some type of regulation to

the platform, hug and claims that her former employer deliberately chose profits over people's well bein, take a listen. i saw facebook repeatedly encounter conflicts between its own profit and our safety. facebook consistently resolve these conflicts in favor of its own profits. the result has been more division, more harm, more lies, more threads, and more combat. in some cases, this is a, this dangerous online talk has led to actual violence that harms and even kills people. congress applauded hogan for coming forward, assuring they would provide legal protection if facebook tried to sue. i've brought up another point of how the tech giant is shielded from lawsuits. because right now it has this broad immunity. most of america has no idea. essentially, you can't suit facebook, you have no recourse. most america doesn't know about section to 30

physics own research about instagram. contains quotes from kids saying, i feel bad when i use instagram, but i also feel like i can stop, right. i, i know that one more time i spend on this, the worse i feel, but like, i just can't like that they want the next clip. they want the next, like they the dopamine in the little heads all the time. to break it all down. we bring in our 360 panel editor at large for salon and professor at the university of baltimore de watkins and steve malls, board host of eat, the press right here on our tea. america. thanks for joining us today. thank you, dear. natasha felt schools given everything that has come out about facebook in the past. are you surprised about anything this form or facebook data scientist is sharing with the public? well, i mean, i kind of have mixed feelings about what you're sharing with the public. she's making it sound and by the way,

i'm no fan of facebook. and i think that facebook and all the others need to be regulated. and i think they needed to be regulated back when it was obvious. and it is obvious that they started censoring conservatives. and started censoring free thought, free speech, but that aside, and i haven't heard any talk of that really come out of her mouth. maybe i missed it. but she doesn't seem too concerned about about the conservatives who have been banned for life and kicked off and suspended. but she seems to be saying that the world is, is, is that an end almost because of facebook? are she it, it sounds like she has an axe to grind and if she does fine, but i, you know, what, what stuck out of my mind was she said that china and iran are using facebook for espionage purposes. china to spy on weaker is the muslim population that they put in concentration camps in china and iran to spy on other countries. if she knows or if there are national security risk to this country. and that's

a whole nother ball game. otherwise, let's regulate them all, but let's not over regulate them because we do want freedom of thought and we do want freedom of speech. and be as you know, these are some serious accusations that honda is bringing against facebook. do you think it could be true with the company was well aware of the platform was causing a parent harm to some teenagers and still being dishonest to the public about their findings. some of the smartest people in the world, they definitely know what date dawn date. definitely noted problems. they definitely know. and we are starting to see the long term effects of social media and how damaging it can be. now that the big problem is, if you're gonna graduate it, do you have to learn to way everything is good? you have to control everything. we know that social media is full of liars, be no social media is bad information. we know social media is powerful enough to

get someone to confuse people in american history. the high offices. but again, are we going to silence people, or are we going to step in as parents and mentors and teachers and coaches, and teach young people and even our peers on how fake and dangerous the sites can be a good question and seeing what do you think is the motive behind this former facebook employee copying and carrying insight, company information, and then going to the length of filing complaints with federal authorities. i'll give you the benefit of the doubt and i'll say that she had legitimate concerns in her own mind. what she saw bothered her, i mean, maybe we'll find out if she was a jill did, or maybe we'll find out she was not treated well, or maybe we'll find out, you know, there was a personal confrontation with somebody that didn't en, well, i don't know that so i'll give her the benefit of the doubt and say, she's sincere and also agree to a large extent with what the said about parental responsibility. and you know, if,

if we have kids going on a platform and it's leading them because they see a picture of and, and it's leading them to anorexia or it's leading them to depression or whatever, you know, parents have a responsibility and, and, and i'll also agree with the, when he says, you know, full of liars and misinformation. yeah. you know, he can be talking about cnn, and m s n b say, i mean the misinformation there, that top target and kill and love to go go after the black men. i, it was her perpetuated. the riots that took place over a year ago. and there's more i could list a whole number of lives in this information from some of these idiots on those cable station. so who do i may, i should wait, steve about not everybody, not on don't nowadays. no. actually what it's like to be a teen using social media. i mean, we didn't necessarily go through that. right. well, yeah, i mean, i'd, you know,

i'd, i'd barely know what it's like to be an adult in social media, but certainly not. no, but we, you know, you gotta see what your kids are watching and see what your kids are doing. i mean, i know it sounds archaic and mean spirited, but, and i thought to let facebook or any platform off the hook. but you know, if it's, if it's as simple as a while, these kids are, can't put the thing down, what parents up to say, put it down here. and now how can, has also pointed to facebook. oh, research that does amplify. i hate misinformation and political unrest. indeed, what's your take on those findings to speak to cnn or whatever other stations steve was talking about when i talk about problems with police and the way of policing to be more effective. we just saw about a dozen upon was city police officers go to jail from a range of 7 to 20 years. does not have a mission, absolute black experience. but what i want to say is that just because we,

we do subscribe to capitalism just because we do believe in a free market. it doesn't mean that we can step up and talk about some of the problems that it, that it causes. so we didn't, we, we don't know her whole experience at face, but we don't know how much misinformation and she turned abide to why she was working there. but we do know this is an issue. so i definitely can't be any, any person who is working enough to talk about the problems that exist. but at the same time, the challenge is, is home. what are we going to do as people in society? are we gonna, are we going to rewrite the rules? are we going to continue to and of any touch on this a little bit? so do you think more censorship is going to hurt freedom of speech, especially among conservatives? well again, this is something i've not heard address. i haven't heard a talked about today or yesterday in anticipation of today in the news media. i

haven't heard of talked about by her. like i said, i may, i didn't watch all of her testimony. so we already know that they band conservatives, they back conservative thought and they've been anything that they decide that they decide is misinformation and the public shouldn't have access to. so they could do all that. i just find it hard to believe that they're allowing, you know, a ran to put our national security at risk by letting them spy on us or other countries when they won't, you know, when they, when they can take down anybody they want. so i'm a little confused by it all, but something needs to be done at the very least, equal access equal, equal rights for thought and for opinion from both sides. and we've been begging for that for years. section 230 has to go and the congress never does anything. maybe now they'll do something and the other with one of them.

no, she think this should be as a company, don't you believe this should be able to operate however, any want to operate in whatever they want to buy, even if the bad things that you may identify with. now when they have special protection from the government for that, for instance, section $230.00, if they're going to get special of co operation of protection from the government, then they have to be fair all the way they want to take all those protections away . then let them do what they want was elementary. thank you so much for your time and incite the watkins steve miles berg. always a pleasure to have you on the british government is preparing a final billions of pounds into a new cyber warfare center. capable of attacking states that the united kingdom sees as hostile our teeth, she. dia edwards dash t has the details. well, it's being described hair by the government in britain as a once in a generation opportunity and a real game changer and placing brits and back on the map as a global lead,

an influence or in terms of cyber security. in fact, it's so much of a priority for the government that it's setting aside a whopping finds a 1000000000 pounds to set up this new headquarters for cyber warfare in the united kingdom. many eyebrows, though, raised at that amount of money, particularly during all of this time we've seen in the kind of pandemic, very difficult, a financial past 20 months. not least looking at current affairs to like the fuel shortage here in the u. k as well. so that's a huge amount of money, but the defense secretary is defending this amount of money on the move in general saying that the u. k. must be better equipped to defend itself, but also must be in a better position to lower the cyber attacks as well. some foreign states are waging cyber warfare not every single day, and we have a right on the international law and among ourselves to defend ourselves. and one

of the way see can do that is to dismantle the tools that i used against you. for example, with the hostile state is using a server to deploy ransomware against you, spyware. using disinformation, he could use offensive side, but to deal with those service has been on this trajectory for some time. now, in fact, the national fiber force has been in operation. it was established since at least november of 2020, but what we do know is in the past few months now in 2021. british officials have been hinting at who these hostile states really are. namely russia and china. russia has combined military and no military means to alter the map, attempting to change the balance of power and undermining the cohesion of all societies through disinformation, russia, and china, and gaining a decisive advantage in information age military technologies. we know that russia has consistently denied any involvement in cyber attacks here in the united kingdom assess at lunch time and time again,

failed to provide any evidence to back up its claims against it, but still the united can the kingdom continues and is indeed setting up this new headquarters, and it seems as though the u. k is not as ramping up as rhetoric, but it's clearly a ramping up its capabilities. as while stevens on danger, who fought and wanting $9500000000.00 judgment against chevron corporation for putting lands and waters. and the ecuadorian reinforced was sentenced to 6 months in jail at a federal court in manhattan friday. following his conviction of contempt charges. a judge said don's injured applying court orders for delays in handing over his passport, handing over details on all his devices. and his refusal to hand over his computer and cellphone following a racketeering suit filed against him by oil giant chevron corp rock legend. roger waters has been actively following the case and was on in question tuesday to

discuss. well, i'm very glad that the you and human rights commission has waited on it. he spent 7791 days now house arrest and its way to botch punishment. because all he did was deny. judge louis a kaplan access to his computer and his cellphone to give those 2 pieces of equipment to chevron corporation who are the people who we are fighting this battle against on behalf of his clients. it would completely contravene all the rules of client privilege. if he had done that, and it is wrong and it will be go on, it will go on being wrong until chevron pay those $30000.00 ecuadorian people there. it's now about $12000000.00 with interest with interest and damages. it's gone up to about $12000000000.00 that they wrote in

reparation, and they need it showing up after the break. a look into possible major insider trading job will discuss with again, with these are the 4 people who pulled the trigger and survive something on survival. wortha carlos, things that i had to face was not counting a face at a low expectation of life. i accepted that i accept the fact that i made that it's where we had no fears. del change pretty fast for shots. different stories behind the bullets. ah

ah . ah, media report circulate about potential insider trading relating to the federal vice chair, members of congress are asking questions. senator elizabeth warren is now calling on the securities and exchange commission to investigate the matter in greater

detail more. we turn to tobin smith, theo, of transformative research. thanks so much for joining us. tobin good be here. so what's your reaction to elizabeth warren calling for an investigation of trading activity by all high level fed officials and do you think more scandals will come to light? well, a, have you ever met elizabeth warren? this is what elizabeth farm is born to do. and to absolutely, they're going to crack on it. i mean, the most gracious trade i've ever seen in my life is when the federal research said they were not going to cut rates. but they already decided at their meeting. and one of the big of a federal reserve presence goes out by $5000000.00 a stock. i mean, if that's not insider trading and if there's not rules against that, then then they're hapless and we're, we're suckers for it. so yeah, sometimes in, you know, in the great american experiment we have to like, you know, be hitting the faith 5 times to finally figure out that we're getting punched and i

guarantee they're going to change us. and, and, you know, chairman powell really is the buck stops with him. you know, i, that may be a reason for him not to be reappointed simply because, you know, this stuff went on, they filed the paperwork, he knew it was going on. so i don't know, i mean sometimes people get deaf dumb and blind all the same time. well, i want to point out, no charges have been made and they're, you know, basically these are all claims. obviously at the moment by tobin, do you think it's merely a coincidence that the vice chair move between $1.00 to $5000000.00 out of a bond fund into stock funds back in february of 2021 day before you know, like you said, fed chair drone pow, put out that statement at the central bank might indeed take action to help you economy as the pandemic was approaching. oh no, it's no coincidence. whatever. come on, you know, i mean, what you're saying they're in the call. i've been in the rooms where they're having that call and everything's down the line. everybody's on record by the way. it's

all tape to tell, dictated, etc. so we knew exactly what he was doing. and he felt obviously that that was ethical as a governor. and when you look at the rules, the rules really don't say that he can't do that. so the problem is with sort of the structure there. they're supposed to be, you know, they're supposed to be not be involved and make decisions based on inside information from the fed. but there's no literal role that said he couldn't transfer a bond fund to a stock fund. and so that's going to change that. i am sure of. i see. so if it was in line with, you know, what is legal, do you think power job is in jeopardy here? well, obviously little warrant is getting for his head and probably a couple more people are too. but remember that the fed and all the other central banks in the world are putting about $300000000000.00, euros, janik cetera, into the, into the world economy. that's what's keeping the stock market afloat. arguably,

keeping the stock market afloat is what's keeping consumer spending tending up. so my sense is, there is no reason to upset the deck here. let's wait till we get to january when you turn about reappointment. and let's, let's also uncover everything else it's buried in there because, you know, if there's just not just one, you know, a bugger insect in the closet here. there's gotta be a couple more now, switching gears, treasury secretary, janet yellen of the violent ministration. so she's calling for the iris to review accounts with more than a balance of $200.00. yet 23 state treasurer's and ires are opposing the plan. so do you see this moving forward? well it's, it's not for her to decide. you know, these are state by state issues. i think really the bigger issue here, this is about crypto currency, more than anything else. the fact that you can, you know, open up an account and iris has no idea. you've opened up an account. you can sell

something in an account and they are, i says, no i, i did that. you've sold it, particularly if you hold it in an offshore type a crypto group. so they're looking for income wherever they can get a delivery for taxes where they can get it. this is one of many places they're going to make but, but this is, you know, technically the federal reserve knows where all the cash is anyway, so i don't understand why they really are trying to pass this anyway. so do you think that they really could regulate crypto currency, the way things are moving? well, of course it could potentially crypto currency. the question is, is right now the tax code calls a cargo currency says it's a product, it's not a currency, it's not a security, it's a tangible object. all they need to do is change the law that says that it is a, it is a security. and as a security, it comes into the fcc guides and it's going to get that way because when it was worth total, maybe a $100000000000.00 or something, i was sort of fun now that it's 2.5 trillion dollars. it says it's bigger than many

currencies in the world, probably in only 3 currencies that are worth more out there in the world. so collectively, it's, it's, it's gotten too big. it's gotten up to the point that, that there's an industry that are built around hiding taxes. there's industries look at you grounded out of parts of puerto rico, the, the, the bros. down there, the painter. bros have bought all of the capital and they're building their own nirvana and they're going to call it their own state. so. so it's got way too much power. it gets the elected officials very nervous and, and, and the higher you get a profile, you know, the more you gets back down with a hammer and even trackable, you know, transactions with things like venmo, when people, you know, might not be making all that much money. do you think it's even worth, you know, following that? oh yeah, i mean, i mean, 1st i've gotta remember that at the real high level crypto currency, particularly bitcoin in a theory. and this is a religion the if you hear

a if you're a bit kind bro, if you're a theorem, angel, you believe a 100 percent 120 percent of your heart and soul. and that this is a right thing to do. this is getting you on your out from underneath and some of the, of the legislators and the regulators and all those bad people and it's a religion. and when i say religion, i mean people believe it. it's so much that if they don't have bit point in their brokerage account, etc, they feel like they're a traitor. i mean, if that's just this idea of you know, diamond hands, i've never going to sell it, and yellow and molo and holo and all that stuff. but for the real true believers, this is a calling for them. it's like a religion. they're not, they're not worshipping anything. well, what they are working making is the independence by not being underneath the thumb of regulatory officials and that for many like the libertarians before them. and many claim people were libertarian for further a big claim. people, it's freedom, baby, and you know, you can try to regulate it,

but unless they got together and did it all over the, all the major countries, you'll just move your crypto to the country that doesn't regulate you have and best thing so much for your insight. history is be made with the 1st movie ever shot in space. overnight, a russian actress and a movie producer launched into space to shoot a movie at the international space station r t. tourney. chavez has more on the production to day russia making history. launching an actress and film director into space to make a feature film in 0 gravity. good. so now he prepared as well as it is possible to do in such a short period idiom. in any case, this is an experiment. i don't want to lose the word fear, anything like that. i want to say that i'm very excited and joyful noted because you have to understand how few people have been there will lead while we have the opportunity to fly, to speak while and not just lie there. but to do what we know best on earth was pretty to make it on the birth russian actress as julia priscilla than director

clim chapin go, blasted off for the international space station in a rush and spacecraft together with cosmonaut, antonio group rove a veteran of 3 space missions, turbo pumps coming up to flight speed and left off. they'll be filming segments for the movie challenge the 1st feature film set in space. the movie will tell a story of a surgeon who has to operate on a sick cosmonaut in space because his medical condition prevents him from returning to earth to be treated. they are going to spend 12 days on the space al post before returning back to earth. congress is also planning on making his own movie on a space ex rocket come next year in new york, trinity chavez, r t. and remember our own william shatner host of i don't understand. we'll join 3 other crew members on tuesday, october 12th, and blast off. and jeff basis is blue origin capsule from west texas. you can catch it on portable tv any time. ah, in may of 2021. the remains of

a 20 ton trunk. the chinese rocket came crashing him to where it got me thinking just how much stuff is up there. now do they get there? and do i really need to all she'll be we're good. some piece of space debris could fall out of the sky. about big problem is this. i wanted schachter and i don't understand oh, available on the r t america and portable tv. and that's all the time we have for today for this show and more download the portable tv app for your apple or android device tonight. thanks so much for watching. ah, can continue the internet, censorship and freedom of speech co exist. this all important question is being tested. how should miss information be define?

who should be allowed to make this determination? today it's about vaccines will stop there. with breaking news on our tea, natural gas prices in europe, leap to our record, high, sending household bills, sky rocketing, none piling pressure on governments to green light, a new russian pipeline also ahead. facebook denies a whistleblowers claim that it's spreading hate and weakening democracy, while us senators call for tougher controls on big tech. it's the latest sign of the tide, turning on social media giants a decade after they were here for helping bring apart the art of spring. us for publicans claim.
