sinks ah, we dare to ask in ah, oh, i'm good mounting in the u. k. over new restrictions being brought into combat the fast spreading across with even some conservative m. p. 's, comparing the proposals to that of nazi germany. depending on says, it won't hold any one liable for a botched. drones strike in afghanistan had killed 10 civilians, including 7 kids, one former u. s. military drone pilot told us of his frustration over that decision to see that nothing has changed, even when it's blatantly out in front of everyone's face, how we operate and no one's being held accountable. like we've been talking about this for 10 years now. also in the program of facebook admits in court that it's

a 3rd party fact checks and nothing more than opinions. it's fueling allegations of bias and censorship on social media. ah. all right into the evening i was we go here at moscow. this is our t international just after 6 pm. the u. k. has started to record amr con cases in the thousands the very it now accounting for 20 percent of all the infections in the country and nearly 50 percent in london. the prime minister had tried to get ahead of the cobra way by bringing in plan b, as in telling a restrictions and accelerated a rollouts of boosters. however, even members of his own party are not entirely convinced. this is the right way forward. we are not a papers please society, this is not nazi germany. well, the prime minister lake is instruction to the nation is get to boosted and now the

aim really is to get everything go adult in the country, vaccinated with that booster job. by the end of this month, the is quite ambitious. then really because that would mean and 1000000000 people need to be jobs every single day, and i'm outside saint thomas hospital here in central london. and as you can see, the queue is really piling up now this morning. in fact, being a chances are telling people to stop trying to book their booth online. the system has totally crashed. and why may you ask about the acceleration of this booster program now? well, according to the how secretary the on the chrome variant is now the dominant one. no very old code 19 has spread this fast. oh me pond. expect it to become the dominant code 19 parent in the capital in the next 48 hours. so the 2nd of this week is to get a boosted now, and it's all part of a drive of the plan b. cobit restrictions, which parliament will actually be voting on later this evening. now that includes

face mouse being made. mandatory again, cove at passports, cove, it isolation rules, but also the most controversial one is trying to get the n h just to get vaccinated, making that compulsory now many people in the public se that's an attack on civil liberties. that's something that some m p 's agree with. and so we're expecting a huge tory rebellion. many people saying compelling the public to get immunized as simply a step too far. not to mention the temporary emergency measures that don't seem to be so temporary anymore. we were told these measures might be left before santa took to his sleigh, and certainly before half the country was pinged into the gulag, there seems no let up to this kind of self defeating dystopian logic. well, just yesterday, then the government put the owners back on the public saying we must all be playing our part. but that's quite a difficult message to the public to take, especially after the last he weeks of revelations that some politicians don't seem to be playing their part in trying to get on the other side of this pandemic. and

yes, i'm talking about those downing street christmas parties. i've been the headline news here in the united kingdom, but many people, as you can see, the key directly behind me, they all following the rules. they want to get that these to now, perhaps it's a long stitch as it to save their christmas is. meanwhile, there was a brief moment of panic earlier on tuesday after in person pcr tests to a temporarily unavailable, the sites all across england. the government's website has not been updated showing new time slots, but it's micah efforts to ramp up testing to counter the new amik chron. there's still plenty of questions over how dangerous it is or how dangerous it is not. so we spoke with simon clock and microbiologist at the university of reading who is inevitable when you, when you turn up the volume on these measures for these things take time and the to you have to change what's available and what's delivering that to that program. and i think that's what we need. i think that what we see is,

is government being nervous about leaving the stable door from for the horse to bulk because that's what's happened before. and they don't want it to happen again, much will transmissible. so that trans miss ability mold and i would take them any central drop in violence, inability to cause disease is missing from people. then you will end up with a big burden on, on society and on its health care system. no us personal will be held liable for a botched drone strike in the afghan capital. in august i killed 10 civilians including 7 kids. the decision follows an internal review do not anticipate there being issues of personal accountability to be had with respect to the august 29th here strike. let this go right here was just a 2 years old. she was among the children killed in the s drive. you can see some pictures of them right here. now, 3 of the kids have been in

a car when he was hit by a missile. as we said before, 7 kids were killed in total, all belonging to just one family. that was part of our project holder on the hood, voices which you can see on our website. and we heard from the bereaved father of the deceased 2 year old via saw the sandals belong to malika on the morning of the bombing. she came and kissed me and said, good morning, father. it was our last meeting. i will never see her again. i just crossed the road and i heard an explosion. my daughter later told me that she saw a smaller craft. i drew moving around in a circle which then fired a missile about hitch or home. all i turned to look out of there was dust and smoke ladder guy. it was a terrible scene. i went in to my home on fun, my brother and a nephew. they were critically injured, but still alive and breathing was they later died in the hospital. my brother and 9 others were killed in this horrific attack. my brother's daughter, who was soon to get married,

also lost her life. now the pentagon initially defended the strike, claiming it was a targeting islamic state. more than 2 weeks later, though a tragic mistake was acknowledged and investigation, however, found no laws had been broken, but rule that commanders could decide on accountability. now the pentagon says that won't be any, citing a communication breakdown as the reason for the civilian deaths. well, we discussed this with a former u. s. military drone operator. and mr. brandon bryant, you know, it's been 10 years since i blew the whistle on the u. s strong program will be 10 years in 5 days actually. um and to see that nothing has changed, even when it's blatantly out in front of everyone's face, how we operate and no one's being held accountable. like we've been talking about this for 10 years now. when i 1st started talking about it, people called me a liar. people tried to defame me, and now that we see it for what it actually is, innocence had been killed. not just innocent and innocent aid worker who was there

trying to help. i really think that the united states has lost knowledge on how to conduct warfare. and it's now a business it's, they're not going to punish the people that make them money. they're just going to punish the people that are so the supposed enemies in the ones that they test this, munitions on who should be punished or the officers. they said that there's a breakdown in communication, but that is mostly a lie. m, m must have been that there was there, there must been someone miscommunicating something. but they have everything should be in a chat program. like it's not just a radio call instantaneous. you spin up your mess when you shoot. it takes like 5 minutes to get ready to shoot a messiah. this was not an emergency situation. none was under spire. no one was under duress, no one was under stress. and so they had all the time in the world to make the decision on whether to shoot or not. numerous, you, astro strikes, have left her well over 300 civilians. they had enough gas on,

in recent years. that's according to the bureau of investigative journalism. as we understand at least $66.00 of those killed with kids, a brand and brian again reflects on the work of that of a military join operator. there is no way that anyone who has ever done this job and sit there watching these people live their daily lives. i cannot look at them and say, these are not people there. people because you go home and you go out into your own community and you see the same, keep same types of people doing the same thing. they're going to coffee shops there, go into bookstores, they're hanging out with their friends and family. there's no disconnect for a drone operator. there's so much connection, like if, if a drone operator were to go over there and to meet the people that they interact with. visually, they would probably have a emotional breakdown and cry because they would see these people are suffering and no different than themselves. and that we're perpetuating that suffering because of our actions. we're doing it. but he was

a homeland security department is under fire. after was revealed, the agency had secretly obtained information on journalists, congressional staff, and possibly even its own members of the associated press, whose reporter was one of those targeted is now demanding dances where deeply concerned about this apparent abuse of power. this appears to be an example of journalists being targeted for simply doing their jobs, which is a violation of the 1st amendment. what we have in question is a secret border patrol unit called counter network division. and apparently it had very few rules. a very few guidelines, it operated and well abided by and according to the report that has well, that has made the headlines, bused partly some of the america's most sensitive databases to look into and to vet people. when i say people, i do not mean known criminals on poor people, charged with something or even people suspected of committing a federal crime. when i say that people, they were rather vetting journalists or, well congressman or congress people or just angio workers. they were vetting them

as they were considering working with them this well counter network division and the sort of information they could get they could obtain from databases like for example, a terror watchlist is well, quite expansive. for example, they could get their financial logs, they could get their travel logs, they could even pry into their personal affairs. for example, the apparently used they're the most sensitive databases and all sorts of tools to look into well into a journalist than a political reporter who was well, romantically involved with a senior senate staffer, they called the operation a whistle pig, apparently inspired by a very particular brand of whiskey, and they used the information that they had obtained to ensnare said senate staffer . now these revelations, they have caused quite a stir and they have been condemned. these practices have been condemned by journalists by privacy advocates, and even officials if true,

this abuse of government surveillance powers to target journalists, elected officials, and their stuff is deeply disturbing. if multiple government agencies were aware of this conduct and took no action to stop it than needs to be so various consequences for every efficient involved and department of homeland security and the justice department must explain what actions they are taking to prevent this unacceptable conduct in the future official, as they have said, that quote unquote, they do not condone the investigation of reporters and one person who was singled out as a member of the secret unit. jeffrey rambo has also dismissed the reporting as sensationalized. he has said that they did not do anything out of the ordinary that it was all common practice. this secret unit by the way, it is still operational to this day and a party operates according to the same rule book. and this is art international, so not all superheroes where capes. a one in the central russian city of who far

simply drives a taxi. he's under starlight status in the region for donating part of his earnings to families with really ill children. so we found out what inspired ah wilson, before i promised myself once i had a proper salary, paid off all my debts, i'd start to help others. in spring, i decided to work for free one day each month. and all the revenue, all the tips i gained that day i decided to donate to the hospital with

ingenious, yes, my instagram friends also took part in that they told their friends started to posted on social media. people followed me and got involved more and more. all right, go to possibly out here at moscow still to come here on our t and american diplomats wife accused of killing a british teenager and our road crash will finally stand trial that story and many more in just a moment. also ortiz saskia taylor joining us here in the studio. we are back in just a 2nd a

to what we got do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race is on offense. very dramatic development. only personally and getting to resist. i'll see how that strategy will be successful, very critical of time, time to sit down and talk with

oh, it is good to have you with us today. so in a landmark court case, facebook is admitted that it's 3rd party fun checks are just opinions. a journalist who's supposed to been flagged as full. so now waging a legal battle against the social media giant accusing it of defamation. let's get more to the full story with us. he's us husky. taylor joining us here in the studio . sounds good. good evening to you. some, a cooling this about michelle revelation. you know, when it comes to facebook old matter these days, i mean, these revelations of really hardly surprising. what for the details, do you know on this? while facebook might have got itself and you name matt to but it seems that it's up

to its old trick, the age old question of whether it's a free and open platform. or in fact, a giant tech company that is just censoring anyone, it does like, has yet again, re and much. now, the latest revelations transpired from a lawsuit filed against facebook by john list. and that's because one of his posts from about last year's california and wild fires was pack checked and labeled party false. so he said for defamation, as he said, but the social media platforms response has been to lift up. it sounds and say when it can't be defamation, because they slack check has what? packing out to with the wild of nasty misinformation are actually surprise 3rd party people who decide what is false, not based, not on facts, but on opinion. because this is america opinion is sacred. still sills claims focus on the fact check articles written by climate feedback. not the labels have fixed through the facebook platform. the labels themselves are neither false

nor defamatory to the contrary, they constitute protect that opinion. so facebook has essentially admitted that, for fact, check, has facts, opp, optional. and of course, it does have a right to do this facebook as a private company. so it's policy is an internal matter. but the point is, is that it does have responsibility and accountability before it's roughly 3000000000 users wild wide. and actually speaking of then, undoubtedly who feel misled at best and maybe down right night to it was, they've been sharing that take on these latest developments. court filing, facebook admits it's fact checkers. don't check facts. is facebook admitted here that it's fact checks are not really fact checks at all, but merely opinion assertions also by facebook clement, its labels constitute opinions than doesn't that make it a publisher. facebook, your opinion piece is not exempt from being fact checked, even when they are clearly labeled as op eds or editorials. also, facebook or fractured labels can not be false or from a tree because they constitute protected opinion,

even though we present them as fact. so asking, i wanted to ask you, how does this all fit in with what we've been told about how it goes about countering misinformation, but also as attitude towards free speech in general. we don't, facebook got a whole section on its website dedicated to fact check isn't it really does salad while you know, a 2 organizations watching and 60 languages fighting lies together. it's a rigorous process and that process involves identifying the problematic post and then reviewing it. and apparently, and wanted to decide whether this post is actually or not, it goes straight to the source it interviews, people consult data, and then on the basis of these findings that determines whether that content needs to be filtered or allowed to circulate. so really does sound like a thorough a scientific process. no. why in all of that and bleeping actual absence tool through that was a lot of it is absolutely no use of words like opinion, subjective, you know, personal perception, judgment is nothing like that. and speech more widening, you know, if you do listen to some, the top ross at facebook,

you believe that they never really filter any content because as such great champions of free speech, your democracy can't tolerate the speech of people. i'm not sure what kind of democracy it is. i do believe in giving people more access to information and more anxious to connect with one another and not reserving those as tools for some small number of lead people. i don't feel comfortable at all saying they don't get to have a voice because i don't agree with what they said. our ability to know what is misinformation is itself in question and i think reasonably. so i think many people would agree without a party sentiment from hand, but the question hair is, is facebook trying to get us out out of a tight spot? with this, we'll see by suddenly amending the job description of fact checker and wanted to escape any liability or has it actually just been lying on its web site for over this time. by the way, it's not good enough for the company and it's often does absolutely nothing to count all those accusations with all these years that they have been silencing voice says arbitrary blocking content, quite frankly, straying into the dangerous territory of censorship. saskia,

thank you. so you k, prosecutors say the wife of a u. s. diplomat charged with killing a teenager will face criminal proceedings after all the answer coolest. fled to america. after her car collided with motorcyclist harry done outside the pentagon military base in england. now the tragedy happened more than 2 years ago, and the coolest has been charged with causing death by dangerous driving. now right after the crash and mister kudos claimed diplomatic immunity and was allowed to leave the u. k. the done family then filed an extradition request which was rejected by washington and lawyers acting for schools have previously admitted that she drove on the wrong side of the road before colliding with harry done. they say that's because she had only been in the u. k for 3 weeks and took the right hand lane instinctively well, short time ago i spoke with a rod sega, an advisor for the don family. he thinks that long campaign for justice is finally making progress. we sort of feel this is

a combination of almost 2 to half years now of relentless, tireless campaigning for this appalling decision by the u. s. government should deny mary's family justice. we don't know why this happened. all we know was that it was a, it's a terrible decision on the part of the u. s. government. and supposedly our strongest ally, why you would want to condemn a totally innocent family to, to this torture. this mental torture is beyond me, but i were very pleased now that i'm with your help and your colleagues helping the media that they have now clearly been left with no choice other than to change their decision and allow justice in whatever form that takes to now take its, it's natural course. i think that turning point was when president biden came into office and we know he suffered a, a similarly similar family. tragic to himself, and we, what we learned from, from him that he was going to take

a different approach. i'm to under president truck took i think my other theory is that inevitably governments, when they make a decision, find it very difficult to change their minds. but the, the courage of this family and the help of the media all around the world of the americans. holton really were left with no choice and other than to change their decision. these things are unfortunately, to take a lot of turn. there is no let up to america's inflationary spiral. average prices in november, almost 10 percent higher than a year earlier. that's according to the latest data. and analysts have come up with some rather surprising advice for cash strapped consumers as audio. caleb mauppin now explains, but the price is on almost all goods and services rising. some media have come up with some advice that isn't going down too well. they say copy inflation ravaged

argentina and simply blow all your money before it evaporates. in high inflation economy. money that sits in the bank is losing value each day, those $100.00 and deposit by a little bit less. as a result, many argentines spend their paychecks as soon as they receive them, cards in a way, weeks worth of groceries in a single shopping trip. even if some of it excess me chicken fish will sit in the freezer for months. so won't burg, offers us to spend more. that's as consumer inflation costs of jump 6.8 percent the highest and 41 years. no doubt, many have pointed out how disconnected from reality such a solution is. in the weimer republic, the price change so fast to customers bought beer for the whole day in the morning . it's coming, or the fat can stop printing trillions of dollars, making us all poor in the process with a decline and currency that also works. yeah, you definitely should start live in a hand to mouth because of temporary blip in inflation. it's not the only example

in a recent wa and post article, a leading columnist, aptly suggested, not expecting very much, rather than leaving constantly on the verge of throwing the fit, and rescan taken it out on the la well m service, southern shall ponies. later ivan delivered it, people will do all the shelves a favor by consciously lowering expectations. a recent article from locks recommended reducing holiday requests in order to not feel the crunch of by nomics . the mission to buy last with more intention is achievable for everyone, especially f land shoppers. it's incumbent and americans develop as people in the world to car, back on and the crucial of their consumption. many c biden's policies as being directly to blame while an infusion of treasury bonds may have been necessary at the beginning of the pandemic. the strategy of printing money seems to be backfiring. everything costs more, the grocery stores of pretty much everything universally costs more. everything's

got up gas, food, everything. so it's not dead. i'm a small, you know, black home business owner and all the prices are my products, have a coffee shop in brooklyn, in prime grand coffee and like all the, all the beans or more expensive. and it's harder to get like even little products like napkins and cups and all those stuff. so it's kind of bad. you know, i dont think biden has been handling any situation. i think biden has just been sitting in office, says kind of a doddering man. joe biden seems bored of explaining how he sees it, not too interested in defending his actions. if we were all going on having lunch together and i said, let's ask whoever, whoever's in the next table, no matter how were what restaurant room have had them explained the supply chain to us. secret understand was what we're talking about. why wouldn't biden be trying to stop inflation if apparently he's the only one who knows what it is,

but even economics nobel laureates writing for the new york times say they do not see the inflation coming. trying to clarify my own thoughts on inflation. i got inflation wrong, i didn't see the current such coming, but why? i didn't think the fiscal stimulus early this year would boost demand as much is summers. that's how predicts it. and in fact, so far it hasn't. now at this point, 60 percent of americans blamed joe biden for the crisis, but mainstream media seems to disagree and tell them they should blame themselves, not the people leading the country. there's nothing that upsets american voters more than having to pay for ever higher prices that are going up dramatically by them is patricia can try to blame the energy companies and private is all they want . but it's all happening under his watch. and i expect that the democrats are going to pay a very serious price for this and the next election, if we make it that long,

we don't know what inflation is going to be at. by that time, i'm very much afraid that, that we're going to be facing a reckoning of without any kind of historical precedent in anybody's lifetimes. or the crunch of biden all makes, and all of that is up for discussion right now at auto dot com. check out the latest inflationary write ups at the world section on our website. well, thanks for joining us so far. here we're not international. another program set to go when we return in about half an ah ah ah, all central banks, all banks, small and verifiable. committees on maya all centers of our arc run. some of them are very corrupt, some of them are extremely around here in el salvador. their money system is

completely absence of any corruption because it's only dealing toward the pure monetary premium and truth of bitcoin. and on top of that, been rock of true, you can build a fantastic country of a fantastic culture. scientific knowledge has never been so readily available to everyone across the globe, but overwhelmed by information. can we distinguish the real science from the one being imposed upon us? we're living in a world where there are many people who have a vested interest in finding information, finding scientific evidence, and discrediting even the notion that science could provide the truth about the natural world in the pursuit of business goals. large corporations, a challenge strongly by scientific evidence if you're emotionally invested and free markets, them climate change is a serious emotional threat because dealing with that means we have to change our

approach to business industries are on the war bond attempting to debunk legitimate science by producing new evidence in science fighting science. that's how ignorant is manufactured, their attention only seeking to the rail science rolling. using sy, give the shell ah, the midwest in southern united states, it with a devastating swarm of tornadoes for the weekend, leaving scores dated. the hardest to state of kentucky for other states also saw death and destruction, including tennessee where scott hughes will join us from live to update the damage . and after 18 years at the network, chris wallace says goodbye to fox news, and he's headed to cnn plus cnn new streaming platform. why did you leave? what does it say about fox news then? while it's have issues with seeing an anchor jig.
