War welcome to you youre watching R T International with me and. Were less than 2 weeks out from the u. S. Election and design tis a patient bill to the 2 president ial hopefuls are set to face off in the final debate on thursday but theres been a slight tweak to the rules moderators will be will now be able to move to the microphones of the candidates off the many ducks the previous event k. Also make the choice of topics this time has also raised a few eyebrows as it wont include Foreign Policy and many say this will deny trump the chance to hit out at joe biden over the business dealings of his son hunter well meanwhile republicans want the twitter on twitter and facebook heads to testify before congress over alleged political bias follows the platforms taking down links to a New York Post article on Hunter Bidens business dealings in ukraine. Delves into that and a few other controversies. It is often the case that those who trumpet loudest about being fair and unbiased arent at all but facebook really seems to mean that they want Fair Elections no meddling and the president that america wants and facebook wants so today i want to share the steps that were taking to protect Election Integrity and make sure that facebook is a force for good in democracy part of what facebook is doing is harming people to police news and one of the things that theyre censoring is about the current scandal so joe biden his son and ukraine which involves alleged meddling abuse of power blatant conflict of interest and a whole lot of money going into the bidens family counts now if you try to share a link to an article about this on twitter or facebook here is what you get the link you are trying to access has been identified by twitter or our partners has been potentially spammy or unseat in accordance with tweeters you are poor see how does this happen how does a huge scandal get censored the bardens have a lot of friends and one of those friends who now happens to work as Election Integrity police it facebook is a certain anima can do anna used to work as joe biden Senior Policy Adviser for europe and eurasia which includes ukraine perseid see when biden jr was raking in a standing sums of money for a Ukrainian Energy company for doing well no one knows what while daddy told ukrainian authorities how to run that country. An American City by devices for ukraine at the time also listen to the calls and said release of the transcripts would only strengthen bidens case that he acted properly she helped biden prepare for the conversations and said the old created at a high level if this wasnt enough corruption and cronyism for you adna was also a nonresident senior fellow at the Atlantic Council which dubs itself a nonpartisan think tank it also provided a slew of stuff for a bomber and his Democrats AdministrationJames Jones Susan rice etc the point is that the same time it was a devising joe biden at the same time his son was reportedly raking in millions of dollars from this Ukrainian Energy company the firm also began making payments to the Atlantic Council 100000. 00 in donations so under allen is what this company was paying both biden jr her bosss son and the Atlantic Council for which she worked and now shes at facebook which previously partnered with the Atlantic Council and are you at all surprised that stories critical of barton are now disappearing while i will intentionally not link to the New York Post i want to be clear that this story is eligible to be fact checked by facebooks 3rd Party Fact Checking partners in the meantime we are reducing its distribution on our platform breaking the news was ad d. Stone a career democrat and as is tradition now a facebook spokesperson you couldnt make this up remember what i said about those who proclaim the neutrality loudest well. Facebook is and always has been an open transparent and nonpartisan platform where people can express themselves freely freely are through approval from facebook senses and factious Election Integrity police and chances are a full of a joe biden stuff aside from that yes free lenny i discuss the link between social Media Censorship and the american elections with a few of our guests. Facebook google and twitter previously vowed to prevent election to ferentz through their platforms to what extent do you think theyve managed to fulfill that promise i dont really know what twitter or facebook could have done what they have instead done is made a horrifying promise that they can regulate truth that is hard enough to do in a world that isnt politics where does information is part of the game they showed a significant bias in going after the hunter biden disclosures and ive read the hunter biden emails may strike me as perfectly valid perfectly plausible so i believe the story and i think that that that twitter and facebook are are deliberately trying to withhold information from the public in a clear effort to swing the election well we know that in contrast to what happened with honor biden story we didnt think about the christopher seal does which exploded across the world we get so used to get creams despite having been utterly discredited by our own f. B. I. So relieved to be its Crystal Clear that whoever is these are pretty sober events and very nice companies heavily say was as is our Mainstream Media the less than generous and this is pushing down back aggressively right now it ways and i think we may very well suppress results and it would say the 2020 election in this country do you think many is to be legal changes to restrict the power of Online Platforms to decide what we can accommodate quite frankly we are moving at a startling pace in terms of all these platforms and we dont have the laws that really apply to them theyve made promises they cant keep and they are trying to please their user base is based soley on the the outrage of the moment the important point is that the censorship is being imposed on facebook and twitter by the government the government of the freight of these platforms. Liberals and democrats are both pushing for for increased government regulation and i think its an assault on free speech so i think of the she has much free speech as possible and that means there will be their speech but the only remedy for bad speech is good speech. A Young Volunteer in a leading corona virus vaccine trial has died in brazil the drug is being developed by the anglo swedish firm astra zeneca along with Oxford University so far it hasnt been established whether the volunteer received the actual vaccine or placebo well since this news emerged shares in the Pharma Company have fallen but its not the 1st setback for those asters anika vaccine back in september the trials were temporarily put on hold as after a volunteer fell sick with a rare spinal disorder this time however the trials will continue without delay following careful assessment of this case in brazil there have been no concerns about safety of the Clinical Trial and the independent review in addition to the brazilian regulator have recommended that the trial should continue we heard from dr mohamad moneer ever ologist of britains Lancaster University he says the key question here is was the person who died given the real vaccine. If we do look on to the front runners vaccine Oxford University the arsenic up partnership vaccine is the one that have received the Major Concerns and terms of pauses in terms of having safety concerns and now having any will and here who died but a bit in that phase 3 trial which is the last d a trial i think that is really concerning and i think them that the real question will come back the da person has been vaccinated or was in the police or book group because now i would be determinative for really seeing if the safety is good enough to come to the trial or not but looking really onto d the onto the trial continuation because brazilian government approved to carry on the trial meaning that probably the person has been in the Political Group but a game the question is that about that the transparency in providing all that information publicly is meant taint a lot because if it doesnt its really hard to interpret what we really is the actual situation on the ground. The fan struggle between armenia and azerbaijan as an acoa town back has entered his 4th week and the hostilities showed no signs of letting out with reports of shelling in possible disputed region on wednesday well far from the front line his ego standoff.
