Is reacting and how it would like to respond all right its time to stream music i. China has Just Announced sanctions against the United States which target some of beijings most vocal critics this comes one week after the u. S. Sanctions several chinese officials over reports that they are targeting some ethnic minorities arties racial blevins is joining us now to break down the latest developments here so rachel what explanation did beijing give for the sanctions or a spokesperson for Chinas Foreign Ministry spoke out and she said that these sanctions are specifically in retaliation to distinctions that were imposed by the u. S. Last week and which they accuse several chinese officials of human rights abuses against ethnic and religious minorities now china has denied these accusations repeat. And it also accused the United States of trying to meddle in its internal affairs take a listen the vicious harassment interrogation and threats by the United States seriously damaged the legitimate rights and interests of chinese citizens in the us and also interrupted and destroyed the normal people to people exchanges which has turned into outright political persecution now beijing also accuse the us of trying to increase tensions because the state department sent on a warning over the weekend to any u. S. Citizen living in or traveling through china and which is said that they should be on notice that they could be wrongfully detained for political reasons ok so then who exactly did china target with these sanctions and how are those people responding well these sanctions go after u. S. Officials and lawmakers who have been known of some of beijings harshest critics and who have called for President Trump to pursue really strict policies against china now these names include Sam Brownback trumps ambassador at large for International Religious freedom republican senators marco rubio and ted cruz and republican representative chris smith now in response to the news they of course took to twitter were rubio wrote the communist party of china has banned me from entering the country i guess they dont like me and cruz wrote balmer i was going to take my family to beijing for Summer Vacation right after visiting tehran so it doesnt appear that theyre too upset about this news sure and how do you think this will impact the overall relations between the u. S. And china especially on the trade front given you know the back and forth to protect for trade has been going on for like 2 years exactly and this seems to be just the latest conflict between the 2 countries and given all of the current tensions it is even led President Trump to say that hes not sure if there will be a phase 2 of the trade deal now he was asked about this by reporters in which he responded and said the u. S. Relationship with china has been severely damaged by the corona virus pandemic you allege that china could have stopped the plague as he called it but failed to do so and he claimed that pursuing phase 2 of a trade. It isnt on the table right now because he is dealing with other issues now weve seen from go back and forth in recent months on saying whether or not he wants to even continue with phase one so now remains to be seen how the latest actions war playing a role in all of the tensions that we see going on and here he was hoping to have the trade deal done before their 2020 alexion but here we are reach of levins thank you so much thank you. And amazon has backed away from an email sent friday instructing employees to delete ticktock from Company Mobile devices now amazon says that email which was sent as an alert to thousands of amazon employees was a mistake in the now retracted email amazon had stated this quote due to security risks the tick tock app is no longer permitted on mobile devices that access amazon email if you have to talk on your device you must remove it by 10 july to retain mobile access to amazon email at this time using to talk from your amazon laptop browser is allowed so joining us now to discuss all that the best cohost investigative journalist fenceline all right ben so when amazon speaks we know the whole world listens what were some of the immediate fall out problems from the original email. Rigidly with his email went out obviously everybody jumped on it to us senators reid tweeted josh hawley the republican senator from missouri so there was time for the u. S. Government to follow suit to do with amazon was doing but of course within a couple of hours it was on backtracked and released a statement i want to read you what they said they came out saying this mornings email to some of our boys was sent in error they said there is no change to our policies right now with regard to talk. So right now right now so as we speak right now there is this reversal do we know why or how this could have been accidentally. Sent out well thats thats the whole question about the right now isnt it i mean when when amazon essentially sends out an email to thousands of employees as an alert saying if you have a Company Device you must delete to talk off that device because it is now threatening your amazon emails its threatening your intro work emails theres a threat because of the Chinese Government in their access to what you might have somebody is having high level conversations at amazon to the point where someone drafted this email or maybe the email was a draft they were planning to send out in the future in the near future but. It doesnt make sense for some random employed to write out a smile a civic warning about to talk accidentally sent out that wasnt supposed to go out apparently the at some level amazon is considering doing this in the future well heres the big question and then do they perhaps know something that you and i dont know about i know you just joined tech talk yourself. Yeah heres the thing is that there is a huge push right now to essentially disassociate from ticktock we know that india is doing that they have pushed to talk out of the country we know that mike pompei the secretary of states talking about doing that the reality though as far as im concerned is that is it true that to talk is gathering data on you and reviewing whats on your phone its very possible that its happening but the issue that i have with it isnt that talk is doing it its that all Tech Companies are doing it now and the attitude towards to talk is because its chinese it is inevitably bad that they do it but when facebook does it and is on is do we know where that is not a bad thing its ok because these are American Companies yeah and so its its a huge level hypocrisy and by the way as you mentioned in the lead up here wells fargo actually just did this with their employees telling their employees on company phones they cannot have tick tock so i mean if there is this chatter coming out of washington then if this is you know a stay. Department line in the sand to you and take tock what do you think will happen what do you think that signals to to us the consumer or what do you think that signals about u. S. China relations if this all out right man could happen well i think religion says several things about the u. S. Trying to relationship which is certainly that if thats only going to amplify and accelerate a division between the u. S. And china which isnt necessarily a good thing but again there is another issue here and that is the issue of the fact that tiktaalik is not this lone actor or this terrible influence in the tech world and everybody else is playing by different set of rules from what i can tell and from all the information thats been presented there is no indication that tick talk is doing anything that other Tech Companies are not also doing and so the fact that you would say this one is a threat when they do it because of their relations with the Chinese Government but these companies are not a threat when they do it even though they have a relationship with the u. S. Government i think that is problematic and its certainly problematic because no one is standing up and say no Tech Companies should be gathering this information there is no credible voice pushing back on the idea that Tech Companies are gathering in mass everything about you if you only if theyre chinese that its bad and that is a problem or the russian face change app that ageing app remember that last year thats right when totally inconsistent message coming from washington about any of any or all of our apps so well liberate their brand thats one always appreciate your take an insight thank you for the things.

Is making much awaited return and make sure you keep up with all the latest news and anything you might at this point downloading our brand free app portable t. V. You can catch their own of course that will be right back. Its called the feeling of freedom. Everyone in the world should experience fleas and you can get it on the old the old. The old according to gesture. Welcome to my world come along for the rock. Sing the horrors that arise the money in the evil. Corporate criminals who express countless lives to add just one more dollar to their millions. They threaten they bribe theyll do anything to keep their crimes in the door when the people theyve heard are demanding justice their stories need to be told on americas lawyer. Oh yeah oh. Lay should. Take a bite. We go to work so you straight home full. Camp the corporate parasites in power today might think their troll will continue forever whether theyre right or wrong we have to keep fighting question. Hostilities between the u. S. And iran continue in the proxy land of iraq where a u. S. Convoy was attacked in a blast just a day ago so far no casualties have been reported but 2 convoy trucks were destroyed along with any cargo or gear on board now experts believe this came at the hands of iranian backed militias within iraq as a form of retaliation for the january killing of i r g c general custom stolen money this is just days ago a un human rights investigator called the drone strike that killed soleimani arbitrary and unlawful under International Law so here to expand on this bubbling hostility former pentagon official mike maloof so mike this convoy attack blast nobody was killed was that by chance unlocked i mean was this just meant to instill fear what do you think happened there and who did this. Well it now that the iranian backed militias p m f has taken. Responsibility clearly they did their. Share group. It was it was intentional it was probably and they clear the drivers from the vehicles before they before they blew up the trucks including a gas truck so it was done very well to try to minimize any loss of life so that just tells me theyre trying to send a message to the u. S. Even though theyre reportedly worth some u. S. Personnel but they put we were not in a position to engage and thats thats the other. Aspect of this and so. What will the u. S. Do and i think that the u. S. Because of sovereignty issues is going to have to leave it up to the Prime Minister of iraq to do something or Say Something or come down hard on the group that instigated the attack and he has the floor and this has a little this is upset iran well mike what about that i mean the u. N. Investigator made remarks on the drone strike on so many calling it arbitrary and a violation of erakat sovereignty so you just talked about that i mean how is the u. S. Going to respond to that and we already know that iraq you know at maybe it was a referendum vote that didnt have any actual tape to what they wanted all u. S. Troops and allied forces out of their country. Yeah well this is this is a big bone of contention is whether or not i think this is what the. Are trying to do is force the Prime Minister to make that decision and hes not prepared to do that yet as far as what the reaction of the u. S. Will be to the u. N. Statement theyre probably going to point out that so lamont he was a known terrorist. You know its all americans mind them all up and they have every right under our pursuit of. Self defense and but again it happened in the sovereign countries and the Iraqi Government was not secretive about this all along his movements and so the money was going in there to talk about a peace plan at the time so. I think that nothing will come of any u. S. Protests like. The u. S. Will reject us and mike youve actually come on this show back when we could have a physically present at the death with me you talked about iraq being this proxy land where we would see any connect. Oh absolutely and thats why the u. S. Remains there still is make it still is going in the bases in the Anbar Province and a region which simply control and trying to has not. Withdrawn his argument that he wants u. S. Troops saner up for the purpose of a watch iraq as he put it but i hopefully and iraq who wants us that troops to stay in there of course ability purposes and i think thats the dilemma for the iraqi Prime Minister right now hes under even though hes under serious pressure to. Take the americans out there too to invite them to leave here if. The u. S. And is has put sufficient pressure on the Prime Minister from now and even the sunni factions now that vote to pick up the u. S. Was only done by shia did not include some of these are kurds at the time and khatami the Prime Minister is insisting that the entire Parliament Take action if there is to be that change and meanwhile like iran has finally come clean about the down to cranium passenger jet that happened earlier this year at the height of the u. S. And iran has delayed as they say it was a communication error their own yet so now what about the families or or the the state of ukraine do they have any recourse. Well you know they can no. Compensation for the families now that iran has made it to the to the problem and thats a tremendous an admission when you think about it because the heretofore the gove
