WEBVTT - The Rita Panahi Show | 27 August

0:00:02.759 --> 0:00:07.200
<v Speaker 1>On Scorne Little's ostrodio. This is the Reader Panalty Show.

0:00:08.840 --> 0:00:11.520
<v Speaker 2>Good evening, Anne, Welcome to the readA Panny Show. Coming

0:00:11.600 --> 0:00:15.200
<v Speaker 2>up tonight. Labor intensifies his attacks against Peter Duvin.

0:00:15.760 --> 0:00:20.079
<v Speaker 3>Spooked by bad coles and the NT drumming, an AFL

0:00:20.200 --> 0:00:21.680
<v Speaker 3>coach chases.

0:00:21.360 --> 0:00:25.200
<v Speaker 2>Down an alleged cart thief and makes a citizens arrest.

0:00:25.200 --> 0:00:27.360
<v Speaker 3>We discuss that with Patrick Carline.

0:00:27.680 --> 0:00:32.440
<v Speaker 2>Josh Hammer will tell us why another high profile former Democrat.

0:00:32.120 --> 0:00:33.519
<v Speaker 3>Is endorsing Trump.

0:00:34.080 --> 0:00:38.239
<v Speaker 2>Kinseysco filled with the latest celebrity and world news, including

0:00:38.280 --> 0:00:42.199
<v Speaker 2>why Prince Harry is being likened to Tiger Woods and

0:00:42.400 --> 0:00:46.880
<v Speaker 2>a star studded Left is losing it featuring Quentin Tarantino.

0:00:47.400 --> 0:00:51.240
<v Speaker 4>It's a mad dash and she is running and she's

0:00:51.320 --> 0:00:54.640
<v Speaker 4>not stopping to film stumble and you know what, and

0:00:54.680 --> 0:00:56.880
<v Speaker 4>there's nothing among the stopping this. I'm going to vook

0:00:56.920 --> 0:00:59.720
<v Speaker 4>for anyway, no matter what she says in a stupard er.

0:01:02.360 --> 0:01:05.959
<v Speaker 2>Joining me now as senior writer for news called Patrick

0:01:06.080 --> 0:01:10.320
<v Speaker 2>Carly and Patrick, Let's start with the gars of visa issue.

0:01:10.319 --> 0:01:15.080
<v Speaker 2>The latest Essential poll for the leftist Guardian publication reveals

0:01:15.160 --> 0:01:19.400
<v Speaker 2>the more voters behind Peter Dutton's call to Paul's visas

0:01:19.400 --> 0:01:23.400
<v Speaker 2>for Palestinians then are opposed to it. According to this pole,

0:01:23.520 --> 0:01:27.400
<v Speaker 2>forty four percent say they back the opposition leader, thirty

0:01:27.400 --> 0:01:31.720
<v Speaker 2>percent oppose him and twenty six percent are undecided.

0:01:32.240 --> 0:01:34.600
<v Speaker 3>Guardian writers say this result.

0:01:34.319 --> 0:01:39.399
<v Speaker 2>Suggests this retric is politically profitable. I'd confidently say the

0:01:39.440 --> 0:01:42.200
<v Speaker 2>real figure is closed to seventy to eighty percent.

0:01:42.360 --> 0:01:42.840
<v Speaker 3>Patrick.

0:01:42.920 --> 0:01:46.000
<v Speaker 2>This is the essential poll for the Guardian, and I

0:01:46.040 --> 0:01:48.760
<v Speaker 2>think perhaps some of those undecided, and it was quite

0:01:48.800 --> 0:01:51.680
<v Speaker 2>a large number there would be reluctant.

0:01:51.080 --> 0:01:53.920
<v Speaker 3>To say they support this policy because so much.

0:01:53.720 --> 0:01:58.680
<v Speaker 2>Of the left, including members of Parliament have characterized Peter

0:01:58.760 --> 0:02:02.920
<v Speaker 2>Dutton's position as which is such an awful way and

0:02:02.960 --> 0:02:05.840
<v Speaker 2>a dishonest way to describe the policy.

0:02:06.240 --> 0:02:08.639
<v Speaker 5>Well, when he called for a blanket ban, I think

0:02:08.639 --> 0:02:11.200
<v Speaker 5>it was Zale Stegel wasn't one of the tears came

0:02:11.200 --> 0:02:14.239
<v Speaker 5>out and said you are racist, and she doubled down

0:02:14.240 --> 0:02:17.160
<v Speaker 5>on it. Subsequently, I think what he had to say

0:02:17.520 --> 0:02:19.760
<v Speaker 5>sort of resonated with a lot of Australians for a

0:02:19.880 --> 0:02:24.240
<v Speaker 5>very simple reason. Austrange are scared. We've seen the protests

0:02:24.720 --> 0:02:28.560
<v Speaker 5>since October seventh. We've seen Jewish people feel unsafe in

0:02:28.600 --> 0:02:35.480
<v Speaker 5>their own country. It has resonated because people want to

0:02:36.000 --> 0:02:39.120
<v Speaker 5>know that there are better checks, that these people are

0:02:39.160 --> 0:02:42.440
<v Speaker 5>being vetted carefully. There's been a big discussion about the

0:02:42.480 --> 0:02:44.680
<v Speaker 5>fact that perhaps they haven't been vetted as closely as

0:02:44.720 --> 0:02:47.320
<v Speaker 5>they might have been. A strange want to know what's

0:02:47.360 --> 0:02:47.720
<v Speaker 5>going on.

0:02:48.080 --> 0:02:50.560
<v Speaker 2>And while we doing this alone, we seem to be

0:02:50.560 --> 0:02:54.280
<v Speaker 2>the only nation who's gone down this path. We look

0:02:54.280 --> 0:02:58.600
<v Speaker 2>at what other countries are taking in people from that

0:02:58.760 --> 0:03:04.720
<v Speaker 2>region particularly. It's just a bizarre decision by Ethny Alpineasi

0:03:04.800 --> 0:03:07.639
<v Speaker 2>and I think it's going to have far reaching consequences now.

0:03:07.680 --> 0:03:11.880
<v Speaker 2>Treasurer Jim Chalmers has launched another attack against Peter Dutton,

0:03:11.960 --> 0:03:15.560
<v Speaker 2>accusing the opposition leader of being the most divisive leader

0:03:16.040 --> 0:03:20.079
<v Speaker 2>of a major party in Australia's modern history. He also

0:03:20.400 --> 0:03:23.880
<v Speaker 2>told the John Curtin Research Center on Monday, leadership which

0:03:23.919 --> 0:03:27.200
<v Speaker 2>is destructive and divisive is not really leadership at all.

0:03:27.639 --> 0:03:30.000
<v Speaker 3>And that's what we are seeing from Peter Dutton.

0:03:30.120 --> 0:03:35.760
<v Speaker 2>He divides deliberately, almost pathologically. This is worse than disappointing,

0:03:35.800 --> 0:03:41.520
<v Speaker 2>it is dangerous. His divisiveness should be disqualifying. Patrick seems

0:03:41.560 --> 0:03:45.640
<v Speaker 2>the Treasurer and the Albin Easy government in general are

0:03:45.720 --> 0:03:49.119
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, rattled by the polls, the NT result,

0:03:49.360 --> 0:03:54.000
<v Speaker 2>by the cost of living crisis, the Gaza issue that

0:03:54.160 --> 0:03:58.680
<v Speaker 2>is ongoing. The one response they seem to have to

0:03:58.720 --> 0:04:00.880
<v Speaker 2>all this is just to attack Peter Dutton.

0:04:01.240 --> 0:04:03.520
<v Speaker 5>It's bizarre, isn't it. I think, did we wake up

0:04:03.560 --> 0:04:06.880
<v Speaker 5>and find ourselves in an election campaign? Why is he

0:04:06.960 --> 0:04:09.960
<v Speaker 5>talking about Peter Dutton, who's giving a very important economic speech.

0:04:10.240 --> 0:04:12.400
<v Speaker 5>There's a lot going on economically at the moment, with

0:04:12.520 --> 0:04:16.680
<v Speaker 5>cost of living, inflation and a dozen other things. I

0:04:16.680 --> 0:04:18.960
<v Speaker 5>think it shows that the government is actually scared. Why

0:04:18.960 --> 0:04:21.040
<v Speaker 5>are they talking about Peter Dutton? Why are they trying

0:04:21.040 --> 0:04:25.200
<v Speaker 5>to call him out? They've they've been seen to dither

0:04:25.680 --> 0:04:28.480
<v Speaker 5>and to be distracted on so many levels, and Peter

0:04:28.560 --> 0:04:31.520
<v Speaker 5>Dutton has actually, whether you agree with these policies or not,

0:04:31.760 --> 0:04:34.920
<v Speaker 5>had a clarity of vision. That is certainly so at

0:04:34.920 --> 0:04:37.599
<v Speaker 5>odds with the way that the Albanezi government seems to

0:04:37.640 --> 0:04:41.120
<v Speaker 5>handle these very big issues as they come up. So

0:04:41.360 --> 0:04:43.440
<v Speaker 5>I find it bizarre that he's talking about it.

0:04:43.440 --> 0:04:46.200
<v Speaker 2>It is it's almost like they're in government, but they're

0:04:46.200 --> 0:04:48.680
<v Speaker 2>pretending in they're in opposition, so they're just running a

0:04:48.720 --> 0:04:50.440
<v Speaker 2>negative capaign against Dutton.

0:04:50.480 --> 0:04:51.799
<v Speaker 3>But he's not in power, folks.

0:04:52.120 --> 0:04:55.760
<v Speaker 2>But he did have this to say after this latest

0:04:55.760 --> 0:04:56.960
<v Speaker 2>attack from charmers.

0:04:57.320 --> 0:04:59.960
<v Speaker 6>If Australians were doing it so well and the economy

0:05:00.200 --> 0:05:03.800
<v Speaker 6>running as great as Jim Chalmers claims it is, why

0:05:03.880 --> 0:05:06.560
<v Speaker 6>is he dedicating a speech to me? It seems when

0:05:06.560 --> 0:05:08.039
<v Speaker 6>you have a look at the Labor Party at the

0:05:08.040 --> 0:05:10.599
<v Speaker 6>moment you've got Tony Burke saying look at me, You've

0:05:10.600 --> 0:05:12.560
<v Speaker 6>got Bill short and saying look at me. You've now

0:05:12.680 --> 0:05:14.000
<v Speaker 6>got Jim Chalmers saying look at me.

0:05:15.000 --> 0:05:19.560
<v Speaker 2>It's hard to argue with that why they hyper focused

0:05:19.640 --> 0:05:23.840
<v Speaker 2>on him rather than actually there are individual portfolios and

0:05:24.760 --> 0:05:26.840
<v Speaker 2>we do have a cost of living crisis.

0:05:26.839 --> 0:05:27.880
<v Speaker 3>It's not a minor thing.

0:05:27.960 --> 0:05:32.760
<v Speaker 2>It's touching people from all sorts of demographics.

0:05:32.040 --> 0:05:35.000
<v Speaker 3>And that doesn't seem to be an answer to it.

0:05:35.760 --> 0:05:37.480
<v Speaker 3>Look just in the short term anyways.

0:05:37.560 --> 0:05:40.120
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, Look, there's been a dithering quality to this government

0:05:40.160 --> 0:05:43.400
<v Speaker 5>all the way through, and a distracted quality too. You

0:05:43.400 --> 0:05:45.839
<v Speaker 5>look at the voice last year. I mean people were suffering.

0:05:45.880 --> 0:05:48.680
<v Speaker 5>They couldn't know petrol was going through the road, food

0:05:48.800 --> 0:05:51.080
<v Speaker 5>was going through the roof. And we're debating this sort

0:05:51.120 --> 0:05:54.800
<v Speaker 5>of notion of having a two tiered sort of racial society.

0:05:55.400 --> 0:05:58.640
<v Speaker 5>People got sick of it, and I think Darton really

0:05:58.720 --> 0:06:04.599
<v Speaker 5>has recognized that people don't want to be talking about distractions.

0:06:04.960 --> 0:06:06.719
<v Speaker 5>They want to know how their bills are going to

0:06:06.760 --> 0:06:09.800
<v Speaker 5>come down. They want to understand what policies are going

0:06:09.800 --> 0:06:14.120
<v Speaker 5>to be put in place, and policies that have by implication,

0:06:14.279 --> 0:06:17.320
<v Speaker 5>been questioned by the RBA in terms of spending and

0:06:17.360 --> 0:06:19.080
<v Speaker 5>all the rest. They want to know how it's going

0:06:19.160 --> 0:06:20.320
<v Speaker 5>to get easier faster.

0:06:21.320 --> 0:06:23.359
<v Speaker 3>Well, this is part of the problem, isn't it.

0:06:23.400 --> 0:06:25.960
<v Speaker 2>We were expecting a bunch of interest rate drops this

0:06:26.120 --> 0:06:30.359
<v Speaker 2>year and we haven't seen them. Now a leading barrister

0:06:30.480 --> 0:06:34.800
<v Speaker 2>has explained why she refused to do acknowledgment of country announcements.

0:06:34.839 --> 0:06:38.559
<v Speaker 2>We discussed this earlier in the year when this became news,

0:06:38.560 --> 0:06:41.599
<v Speaker 2>but the woman behind the story has now penned a

0:06:41.880 --> 0:06:45.720
<v Speaker 2>column for the Australian newspaper today explaining her decision.

0:06:45.800 --> 0:06:49.040
<v Speaker 3>She writes, acknowledgments of country are.

0:06:48.920 --> 0:06:53.240
<v Speaker 2>Not about showing respect that our political statements signaling support

0:06:53.279 --> 0:06:55.960
<v Speaker 2>for a two tiered system based on race, they have

0:06:56.200 --> 0:06:59.080
<v Speaker 2>no place in the law, including in our courtrooms, and

0:06:59.120 --> 0:07:03.480
<v Speaker 2>the average Australia instinctively knows this and colleague recently told

0:07:03.520 --> 0:07:06.839
<v Speaker 2>me that when court commenced with an acknowledgment of country,

0:07:06.920 --> 0:07:11.040
<v Speaker 2>their client immediately felt the judge would take a view

0:07:11.240 --> 0:07:14.440
<v Speaker 2>against them and lost any notion of receiving a fair trial.

0:07:14.920 --> 0:07:18.320
<v Speaker 2>This is what happens when the legal system infects itself

0:07:18.400 --> 0:07:19.320
<v Speaker 2>with politics.

0:07:19.400 --> 0:07:19.880
<v Speaker 3>Bravo.

0:07:20.560 --> 0:07:24.400
<v Speaker 2>Lana kolaris there, and she also points out Patrick that.

0:07:25.960 --> 0:07:27.440
<v Speaker 3>The term first nations.

0:07:27.440 --> 0:07:30.080
<v Speaker 2>I've talked about this number of times on this program.

0:07:30.120 --> 0:07:34.400
<v Speaker 2>The term first nations in itself is a political term,

0:07:34.440 --> 0:07:38.840
<v Speaker 2>and it's designed to push the sovereignty was never seed,

0:07:38.920 --> 0:07:42.320
<v Speaker 2>it always was, always will be Aboriginal land movement.

0:07:42.440 --> 0:07:46.200
<v Speaker 5>It's very legalistic language, isn't it. And it's not about

0:07:46.200 --> 0:07:49.560
<v Speaker 5>the heritage or acknowledging the past or a great history.

0:07:50.520 --> 0:07:52.480
<v Speaker 5>I think a lot of people suspect it's about throwing

0:07:52.480 --> 0:07:56.120
<v Speaker 5>forward to notions of treaties and then reparations and that

0:07:56.200 --> 0:07:58.600
<v Speaker 5>sort of thing. And we've seen the acknowledgment of country

0:07:59.320 --> 0:08:01.920
<v Speaker 5>just growing, as you're talking about, with all these sort

0:08:01.920 --> 0:08:05.480
<v Speaker 5>of legalistic terms on first nations, and I think people

0:08:05.560 --> 0:08:08.040
<v Speaker 5>are sick of hearing it so many times. It is

0:08:08.080 --> 0:08:10.680
<v Speaker 5>it is ridiculous. It is sort of token istick, but

0:08:10.720 --> 0:08:13.240
<v Speaker 5>at a much deeper level. It really is sort of

0:08:13.240 --> 0:08:17.640
<v Speaker 5>setting a scene for a search for treaties and for

0:08:17.760 --> 0:08:21.120
<v Speaker 5>reparations that average people think, hang on, that's not right.

0:08:21.680 --> 0:08:26.560
<v Speaker 2>And I think also sometimes they become very militant depending

0:08:26.600 --> 0:08:28.840
<v Speaker 2>on who's delivering it. You know, I've heard ones where

0:08:28.880 --> 0:08:31.680
<v Speaker 2>they talk about it, we're on stolen land, sovereignty was

0:08:31.680 --> 0:08:34.640
<v Speaker 2>never seeded. They're ones that are a little better than

0:08:34.760 --> 0:08:38.000
<v Speaker 2>But there's also lines that they always say which have

0:08:38.200 --> 0:08:40.040
<v Speaker 2>just become like meaningless mantras.

0:08:40.040 --> 0:08:42.640
<v Speaker 3>When you actually break down what is said, and you know,

0:08:42.920 --> 0:08:44.880
<v Speaker 3>why would you say that? Exactly?

0:08:44.880 --> 0:08:47.880
<v Speaker 2>What does that mean? They don't actually have an answer

0:08:47.920 --> 0:08:51.680
<v Speaker 2>when you ask someone. It's always interesting when someone I

0:08:51.760 --> 0:08:56.360
<v Speaker 2>insists on doing a acknowledgment of countries, just to ask them.

0:08:56.320 --> 0:09:00.319
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, what does that line mean? Why is that there?

0:09:00.360 --> 0:09:01.679
<v Speaker 3>As opposed to perhaps saying this.

0:09:02.000 --> 0:09:04.600
<v Speaker 5>I had one that went for twenty minutes. Oh wow, yes,

0:09:04.720 --> 0:09:07.199
<v Speaker 5>a couple of years ago, and there was some wrestling

0:09:07.200 --> 0:09:08.200
<v Speaker 5>in the audience at that point.

0:09:08.240 --> 0:09:09.400
<v Speaker 3>Oh I could imagine.

0:09:09.720 --> 0:09:13.800
<v Speaker 2>Now, Victorian Treasurer Tim Pallas has announced another new tax,

0:09:13.840 --> 0:09:18.000
<v Speaker 2>a short term short stay accommodation tax, and yet another

0:09:18.080 --> 0:09:22.120
<v Speaker 2>hitter for those mum and dad investors. If you own

0:09:22.120 --> 0:09:25.160
<v Speaker 2>a short stay investment, if you're listing it on Airbnb

0:09:25.360 --> 0:09:27.720
<v Speaker 2>or other sites, are you're going to be hit with

0:09:27.760 --> 0:09:31.240
<v Speaker 2>a seven and a half percent tax, and councils will

0:09:31.320 --> 0:09:35.760
<v Speaker 2>also be given the power to ban short stay accommodation altogether.

0:09:36.840 --> 0:09:38.760
<v Speaker 2>This is a bit of a variation from what we

0:09:38.760 --> 0:09:42.360
<v Speaker 2>were told because Dad Andrews said that if you're going

0:09:42.440 --> 0:09:46.640
<v Speaker 2>to have a tax like this, then the council charges

0:09:46.679 --> 0:09:51.080
<v Speaker 2>would change. But now everyone's taking their share, well a

0:09:51.120 --> 0:09:51.880
<v Speaker 2>share of your money.

0:09:51.920 --> 0:09:55.040
<v Speaker 5>I just well, it's a backflip, and it's a symptom

0:09:55.040 --> 0:09:58.160
<v Speaker 5>of a government that feels so stale and so debt ridden.

0:09:58.280 --> 0:10:01.040
<v Speaker 5>They will try on anything. No one go backwards on

0:10:01.080 --> 0:10:06.000
<v Speaker 5>what they've said, just to get more money out of

0:10:06.480 --> 0:10:09.880
<v Speaker 5>Victorian tax payers. He's sort of got to wonder, why

0:10:09.920 --> 0:10:12.160
<v Speaker 5>are we paying, why do we have this record debt,

0:10:12.320 --> 0:10:15.600
<v Speaker 5>Why do we have to have these measures. I think

0:10:15.640 --> 0:10:17.720
<v Speaker 5>it was John Howard. It was an internal memo that

0:10:17.760 --> 0:10:20.040
<v Speaker 5>talked about the Howard government I think it was two

0:10:20.080 --> 0:10:22.640
<v Speaker 5>thousand and two being mean, tricky and out of touch.

0:10:23.040 --> 0:10:27.400
<v Speaker 5>This is just another example of the Victorian government and

0:10:26.480 --> 0:10:29.720
<v Speaker 5>how it plays to the Victorian people at the moment.

0:10:29.880 --> 0:10:33.800
<v Speaker 5>They're desperate and they will go to any length just

0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:35.120
<v Speaker 5>to screw another dollar.

0:10:34.960 --> 0:10:35.200
<v Speaker 7>Out of it.

0:10:35.600 --> 0:10:38.400
<v Speaker 2>Well, and they're running out of people to screw out

0:10:38.440 --> 0:10:40.760
<v Speaker 2>of that doll It seems to be property taxes is

0:10:40.760 --> 0:10:44.480
<v Speaker 2>where they go to. And you've also got things like

0:10:44.559 --> 0:10:47.479
<v Speaker 2>payroll tax. So people are actually contributing to the economy

0:10:47.520 --> 0:10:48.599
<v Speaker 2>are being punished.

0:10:49.360 --> 0:10:51.360
<v Speaker 3>And we've got the biggest debt.

0:10:51.360 --> 0:10:54.280
<v Speaker 2>State debt in the country and it's not getting much better.

0:10:54.360 --> 0:10:56.920
<v Speaker 2>I can understand why Allen was heckled in her own

0:10:56.960 --> 0:10:57.880
<v Speaker 2>electricity yesterday.

0:10:57.880 --> 0:10:58.679
<v Speaker 3>That was interesting.

0:10:59.040 --> 0:11:02.080
<v Speaker 2>Now before you got to ask you about cart and

0:11:02.160 --> 0:11:03.480
<v Speaker 2>coach Michael Voss.

0:11:04.000 --> 0:11:05.240
<v Speaker 3>He's been called a.

0:11:05.200 --> 0:11:09.400
<v Speaker 2>Hero today after intervening in a car crash involving two

0:11:09.480 --> 0:11:13.640
<v Speaker 2>alleged thieves. He sprang into action when the two men

0:11:13.760 --> 0:11:17.880
<v Speaker 2>or youngsters attempted to flee from an overturned Mercedes outside

0:11:17.920 --> 0:11:22.040
<v Speaker 2>a coffee shop in Hawthorne. The Blues coach managed to

0:11:22.080 --> 0:11:25.040
<v Speaker 2>restrain one of the suspects, a sixteen year old, pinning

0:11:25.120 --> 0:11:26.960
<v Speaker 2>him down until police arrived.

0:11:27.040 --> 0:11:30.760
<v Speaker 3>The other suspect escape. Police later recovered.

0:11:30.360 --> 0:11:35.079
<v Speaker 2>A large knife from the apprehended teenagers' trousers. I think

0:11:35.080 --> 0:11:37.520
<v Speaker 2>he actually had both of them pinned down for a period,

0:11:37.559 --> 0:11:39.560
<v Speaker 2>but one managed to get away.

0:11:39.800 --> 0:11:41.560
<v Speaker 5>He did pretty well, didn't he. I mean that's why

0:11:41.600 --> 0:11:42.199
<v Speaker 5>you'd like to.

0:11:42.120 --> 0:11:45.200
<v Speaker 2>Think that we hold onto his coffee, because the pictures

0:11:45.280 --> 0:11:46.240
<v Speaker 2>is still holding the coffee.

0:11:46.320 --> 0:11:48.640
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, that's right. His football team could play with the

0:11:48.640 --> 0:11:49.440
<v Speaker 5>same to terminator.

0:11:49.720 --> 0:11:52.040
<v Speaker 2>Yes, it hasn't been a good season for them as

0:11:52.160 --> 0:11:53.880
<v Speaker 2>but then it hasn't been a good season.

0:11:53.559 --> 0:11:57.880
<v Speaker 3>For your tigers, is true? Yes, Patrick Carline, thank you

0:11:57.920 --> 0:12:01.520
<v Speaker 3>for your time. Thanks joining me now is esteem.

0:12:01.640 --> 0:12:06.240
<v Speaker 2>Geologist Professor Ian Plymer Will professor. First day came for

0:12:06.320 --> 0:12:09.800
<v Speaker 2>a gas guzzling cars and air conditioners, Then it was

0:12:10.040 --> 0:12:13.520
<v Speaker 2>gas cooktops, and now it's refrigerators. The author of a

0:12:13.559 --> 0:12:18.360
<v Speaker 2>new book called Frostbite, Our Refrigeration changed our food, our planet,

0:12:18.480 --> 0:12:22.680
<v Speaker 2>and ourselves, wants us to rethink the impact refrigeration is

0:12:22.720 --> 0:12:25.800
<v Speaker 2>having on the planet. She told her Lefty podcast that

0:12:25.880 --> 0:12:29.360
<v Speaker 2>the domestic refrigerator was the tip of the iceberg. The

0:12:29.400 --> 0:12:33.720
<v Speaker 2>abundance that refrigeration has given us has translated into a

0:12:33.760 --> 0:12:37.040
<v Speaker 2>sort of lack of care, a willingness to waste. The

0:12:37.080 --> 0:12:40.520
<v Speaker 2>food is so plentiful and so cheap that people would

0:12:40.600 --> 0:12:43.760
<v Speaker 2>rather go and buy something else, Like, you really don't

0:12:43.800 --> 0:12:46.439
<v Speaker 2>need to have a tomato in December, and so on

0:12:46.480 --> 0:12:51.120
<v Speaker 2>and so on. Oh now, professor, what do you make

0:12:51.160 --> 0:12:53.240
<v Speaker 2>of this? Sid And is this book going to be

0:12:53.280 --> 0:12:55.760
<v Speaker 2>on your short list for Christmas presents?

0:12:56.840 --> 0:12:58.800
<v Speaker 8>Well, I won't be gifting a book like that. This

0:12:59.040 --> 0:13:03.480
<v Speaker 8>is just by a middle porn How far are they

0:13:03.559 --> 0:13:05.600
<v Speaker 8>going to go? I mean this is going down the

0:13:05.640 --> 0:13:10.240
<v Speaker 8>path the saying you will eat insects, you will eat bugs. Now,

0:13:10.400 --> 0:13:13.720
<v Speaker 8>as a child, we ate in season food, so you'd

0:13:13.800 --> 0:13:17.319
<v Speaker 8>have a month of corn, and then a month of chocose,

0:13:17.480 --> 0:13:21.000
<v Speaker 8>and then a couple of weeks of cabbage. It was

0:13:21.040 --> 0:13:25.559
<v Speaker 8>a dreadful diet. It had no variability. Our current diet

0:13:26.320 --> 0:13:30.040
<v Speaker 8>is a very good diet. Because of refrigeration, we can

0:13:30.160 --> 0:13:34.200
<v Speaker 8>keep food, we can stop wasting huge amounts of food.

0:13:34.400 --> 0:13:37.720
<v Speaker 8>So this is a city environmentalist who has no idea

0:13:38.240 --> 0:13:42.439
<v Speaker 8>that actually there are seasons for foods, has no idea

0:13:42.520 --> 0:13:45.199
<v Speaker 8>that these seasons are fairly short and we can keep

0:13:45.240 --> 0:13:50.240
<v Speaker 8>these foods and have a balanced diet thanks to refrigeration. Now,

0:13:50.240 --> 0:13:52.520
<v Speaker 8>if we didn't have a refrigeration, we was able to

0:13:52.559 --> 0:13:55.400
<v Speaker 8>buy diversity of food, that's what she's saying.

0:13:57.720 --> 0:14:00.760
<v Speaker 2>Well, and we also wouldn't be able to keep meat.

0:14:00.960 --> 0:14:03.760
<v Speaker 2>So I do wonder whether refrigeration is going to become

0:14:03.800 --> 0:14:07.959
<v Speaker 2>a bit of a issue for these mad greenies because

0:14:08.200 --> 0:14:09.679
<v Speaker 2>they don't want us to eat meat, and if we

0:14:09.720 --> 0:14:12.679
<v Speaker 2>don't have fridges, then you know, meat consumptions probably going

0:14:12.720 --> 0:14:13.400
<v Speaker 2>to plummet.

0:14:13.679 --> 0:14:13.839
<v Speaker 4>Now.

0:14:13.920 --> 0:14:17.319
<v Speaker 2>Ian Anthony Albanezi and Peter Dutton have been worn by

0:14:17.440 --> 0:14:21.400
<v Speaker 2>major energy companies that the country's East Coast energy market

0:14:21.440 --> 0:14:26.480
<v Speaker 2>is facing a perfect storm of high liquefied natural gas prices,

0:14:26.680 --> 0:14:32.200
<v Speaker 2>underperforming renewable energy sources, coal plant outages, and extreme Whether

0:14:32.280 --> 0:14:36.640
<v Speaker 2>all of this could of course mean gas shortages, soaring

0:14:36.800 --> 0:14:37.320
<v Speaker 2>energy bills.

0:14:37.360 --> 0:14:39.640
<v Speaker 3>We've already got those and more.

0:14:39.520 --> 0:14:46.160
<v Speaker 2>Blackouts and again self inflicted because of government inaction and interventions.

0:14:47.400 --> 0:14:51.480
<v Speaker 2>Pushing renewables is the only way forward. Could we have

0:14:51.520 --> 0:14:55.480
<v Speaker 2>a situation where our resource rich country runs out of

0:14:55.560 --> 0:14:58.600
<v Speaker 2>gas or has a severe gas shortage.

0:14:58.840 --> 0:15:03.080
<v Speaker 8>Well, yes, we've already In your state, Victoria, there is

0:15:03.120 --> 0:15:06.520
<v Speaker 8>an enormous amount of onshore gas in the Otway basin

0:15:06.960 --> 0:15:10.160
<v Speaker 8>and in the Gippsland basin. I've seen in the Wombat Field,

0:15:10.520 --> 0:15:14.360
<v Speaker 8>I've seen the flaring of gas from wells. That gas

0:15:14.440 --> 0:15:19.080
<v Speaker 8>is only a couple of kilometers from major pumping facilities.

0:15:19.160 --> 0:15:22.480
<v Speaker 8>And major pipelines that gas is not used. We've been

0:15:22.520 --> 0:15:25.680
<v Speaker 8>told by the Minister in Victoria that there is no

0:15:25.880 --> 0:15:29.720
<v Speaker 8>gas on shore in Victoria, so that is a lie.

0:15:30.000 --> 0:15:33.600
<v Speaker 8>In New South Wales, we've got massive gas reserves at Narrabray.

0:15:34.160 --> 0:15:36.400
<v Speaker 8>These have got quite a bit of carbon dioxide in them,

0:15:36.400 --> 0:15:41.040
<v Speaker 8>but that can be removed and that's taken decades and

0:15:41.080 --> 0:15:44.480
<v Speaker 8>we're still not producing gas from there. And in Queensland

0:15:44.480 --> 0:15:47.480
<v Speaker 8>we've got very extensive gas fields and I declare an interest.

0:15:47.520 --> 0:15:51.160
<v Speaker 8>I'm the chairman of Senex and the article you refer

0:15:51.280 --> 0:15:54.080
<v Speaker 8>to was in the Australian and Senex was mentioned there

0:15:54.160 --> 0:15:57.320
<v Speaker 8>is one of the major gas companies in Queensland. Now

0:15:57.520 --> 0:16:01.200
<v Speaker 8>in Queensland we have to battle red tape, we have

0:16:01.320 --> 0:16:04.040
<v Speaker 8>to battle green tape, we have to battle black tape.

0:16:04.280 --> 0:16:07.960
<v Speaker 8>You then have to battle you end tape, the blue tape,

0:16:08.080 --> 0:16:12.560
<v Speaker 8>and then you've got goverment inaction, government indecisions, and it

0:16:12.680 --> 0:16:17.640
<v Speaker 8>takes decades from an idea to actually putting gas into pipelines.

0:16:18.200 --> 0:16:20.960
<v Speaker 8>This is not a shot that's happened, oh suddenly this

0:16:21.040 --> 0:16:23.920
<v Speaker 8>winter we've got no gas. This has taken a long

0:16:23.960 --> 0:16:28.120
<v Speaker 8>while to arise because of government inaction. The inability of

0:16:28.160 --> 0:16:31.040
<v Speaker 8>governments to actually project that we are going to be

0:16:31.120 --> 0:16:34.960
<v Speaker 8>needing gas, the inability of governments to actually use common sense,

0:16:35.480 --> 0:16:38.720
<v Speaker 8>and squeaky wheels making a lot of noise. And these

0:16:38.760 --> 0:16:43.160
<v Speaker 8>squeaky wheels are forcing governments to look over their shoulder

0:16:43.200 --> 0:16:45.920
<v Speaker 8>and say, oh, there's three green boats here. They might

0:16:46.040 --> 0:16:48.320
<v Speaker 8>not vote for us. Let's not make a decision, or

0:16:48.360 --> 0:16:51.479
<v Speaker 8>let's make a decision. It's going to cost a fortune.

0:16:51.720 --> 0:16:55.880
<v Speaker 8>So we are seen in Australia a shortage of gas.

0:16:56.120 --> 0:17:00.560
<v Speaker 8>We have thousands of years of gas in Australia, thousands

0:17:00.600 --> 0:17:03.640
<v Speaker 8>of years of coal, We've got millions of years of uranium.

0:17:04.119 --> 0:17:07.679
<v Speaker 8>Yet we've got an energy shortage have come and the

0:17:07.720 --> 0:17:11.720
<v Speaker 8>reason for that is that we've been subsidizing ruinable energy

0:17:12.160 --> 0:17:16.439
<v Speaker 8>like wind, like solar, and subsidizing that energy at the

0:17:16.520 --> 0:17:21.760
<v Speaker 8>expense of tried and proven, reliable, cheap energy like coal.

0:17:22.240 --> 0:17:26.000
<v Speaker 8>And while we've suppressed our coal generation, the costs have

0:17:26.080 --> 0:17:30.199
<v Speaker 8>gone up. We still have the bulk of our energy

0:17:30.400 --> 0:17:33.879
<v Speaker 8>comes from coal the backup, and a large amount of

0:17:33.960 --> 0:17:37.119
<v Speaker 8>energy comes from gas. We still have more than ninety

0:17:37.160 --> 0:17:41.320
<v Speaker 8>percent of the energy in Australia comes from fossil fuels.

0:17:41.680 --> 0:17:45.680
<v Speaker 8>Now the building of all of these monstrosities of solar

0:17:45.800 --> 0:17:51.600
<v Speaker 8>and wind technological facilities across our farmlands has done nothing.

0:17:52.160 --> 0:17:56.880
<v Speaker 8>We haven't actually made energy cheaper or more reliable. Today

0:17:57.040 --> 0:17:59.879
<v Speaker 8>I saw a whole lot of wind turbines up near

0:18:00.080 --> 0:18:04.040
<v Speaker 8>Borough in South Australia. They weren't turning, so we're not

0:18:04.480 --> 0:18:08.399
<v Speaker 8>producing electricity. Where does electricity come from. It has to

0:18:08.440 --> 0:18:11.600
<v Speaker 8>come from coal and it has to come from gas.

0:18:13.320 --> 0:18:16.960
<v Speaker 2>Well, all of that infrastructure has done something. It's made

0:18:16.960 --> 0:18:21.600
<v Speaker 2>all our bills way more expensive. So we've had an impact,

0:18:21.760 --> 0:18:24.920
<v Speaker 2>just not the one we were hoping for. Professor Implymer,

0:18:24.960 --> 0:18:26.480
<v Speaker 2>thank you so much for your time this evening.

0:18:27.320 --> 0:18:29.160
<v Speaker 8>Thank you for having me coming out.

0:18:29.400 --> 0:18:31.200
<v Speaker 3>Lefties Losing It and.

0:18:31.200 --> 0:18:36.159
<v Speaker 2>Josh Hammer on the high profile former Democrats back in Trump.

0:18:44.880 --> 0:18:45.600
<v Speaker 3>Welcome back.

0:18:45.640 --> 0:18:47.760
<v Speaker 2>Now it's time for lefties losing it.

0:18:48.119 --> 0:18:50.120
<v Speaker 3>And here are two lefties.

0:18:49.680 --> 0:18:53.040
<v Speaker 2>Discussing the Kamala strategy of refusing to do any press

0:18:53.040 --> 0:18:57.639
<v Speaker 2>conferences or even any interviews with friendly media. She's that

0:18:57.800 --> 0:19:00.720
<v Speaker 2>much of a liability that they can't trust her to

0:19:00.800 --> 0:19:03.359
<v Speaker 2>sit down for a friendly chat with one of the

0:19:03.400 --> 0:19:06.479
<v Speaker 2>many Democrat fanboys and girls in the media.

0:19:06.960 --> 0:19:11.800
<v Speaker 3>But that doesn't trouble filmmaker Quentin Tarantino. He's fully on board.

0:19:12.080 --> 0:19:13.560
<v Speaker 4>This is about winning.

0:19:14.040 --> 0:19:19.320
<v Speaker 9>What what Most people don't give the Democrats enough credit for,

0:19:19.800 --> 0:19:23.000
<v Speaker 9>all right, but we give the Republicans credit for It's like, no,

0:19:23.200 --> 0:19:24.760
<v Speaker 9>sometimes it's just about winning.

0:19:24.920 --> 0:19:26.960
<v Speaker 4>And it doesn't matter how we look at this moment.

0:19:26.960 --> 0:19:31.240
<v Speaker 4>It's about winning. This is about winning.

0:19:31.760 --> 0:19:33.360
<v Speaker 7>Yep, no, it is.

0:19:34.080 --> 0:19:37.920
<v Speaker 4>It's up mad dash and she is running and she's

0:19:38.000 --> 0:19:41.320
<v Speaker 4>not stopping to film stumble and you know what, and

0:19:41.359 --> 0:19:44.480
<v Speaker 4>there's nothing wrong with stopping this. I'm gonna vote for anyway,

0:19:44.480 --> 0:19:47.120
<v Speaker 4>no matter what she says in a stupid interview side

0:19:47.240 --> 0:19:48.760
<v Speaker 4>So don't shut up?

0:19:48.920 --> 0:19:52.600
<v Speaker 2>Oh dear, did he just say the quite bit out loud?

0:19:53.720 --> 0:19:57.760
<v Speaker 2>Here is another left who is backing the thoroughly inept Kamala,

0:19:57.840 --> 0:20:01.399
<v Speaker 2>but at least he's calling her out for her reluctance

0:20:01.480 --> 0:20:03.400
<v Speaker 2>to do an interview or press conference.

0:20:03.440 --> 0:20:04.719
<v Speaker 3>This is Stephen A. Smith.

0:20:04.960 --> 0:20:06.639
<v Speaker 5>I'm talking to my sister here.

0:20:07.040 --> 0:20:10.280
<v Speaker 3>Come on, now, you're writing for the presidency or the

0:20:10.359 --> 0:20:10.840
<v Speaker 3>United States.

0:20:10.880 --> 0:20:12.520
<v Speaker 10>That make you got my vote?

0:20:13.320 --> 0:20:16.080
<v Speaker 3>You runing for the presidency of the United States of America.

0:20:16.320 --> 0:20:17.320
<v Speaker 10>What you're hiding for.

0:20:19.280 --> 0:20:20.960
<v Speaker 11>And I'm mean hiding and playing sight.

0:20:21.600 --> 0:20:25.479
<v Speaker 3>Somebody got to say it. Somebody got to see it.

0:20:26.160 --> 0:20:29.200
<v Speaker 2>I've been saying that for about three weeks, but nice

0:20:29.240 --> 0:20:32.399
<v Speaker 2>to see the occasional lefty catching up. Now, let's hear

0:20:32.520 --> 0:20:36.920
<v Speaker 2>from a transactivist who accuses others of not knowing what

0:20:37.040 --> 0:20:37.720
<v Speaker 2>gender is.

0:20:38.280 --> 0:20:44.240
<v Speaker 12>Half of you are not sure what gender is, especially transgender.

0:20:44.840 --> 0:20:47.639
<v Speaker 12>Know the learner said transsextional earlier. That's not the correct term.

0:20:47.760 --> 0:20:51.480
<v Speaker 12>It's transgender. I'm a transgender woman. Macro pronouns or she heard,

0:20:51.840 --> 0:20:54.840
<v Speaker 12>and I will only accept those pronouns. I will not

0:20:54.920 --> 0:20:55.920
<v Speaker 12>be addressed.

0:20:55.480 --> 0:20:59.679
<v Speaker 5>Any other way, and in the workspace I have.

0:21:00.080 --> 0:21:01.159
<v Speaker 12>I'm protected by that.

0:21:01.800 --> 0:21:01.960
<v Speaker 3>Now.

0:21:02.000 --> 0:21:05.800
<v Speaker 2>I love this next woman who is pranked by a

0:21:06.040 --> 0:21:08.679
<v Speaker 2>dude pretending to be a left d See how she

0:21:08.800 --> 0:21:12.520
<v Speaker 2>reacts when a Harris wall sign is put up on

0:21:12.560 --> 0:21:13.840
<v Speaker 2>her property.

0:21:15.760 --> 0:21:17.919
<v Speaker 3>Hi, hello, Eric, Hi, I worked for the Harris and

0:21:18.200 --> 0:21:18.919
<v Speaker 3>Walt's campaign.

0:21:19.080 --> 0:21:21.160
<v Speaker 10>I want to I'm going to leave it there?

0:21:21.200 --> 0:21:22.960
<v Speaker 11>Because no, you're not going to leave it there?

0:21:23.320 --> 0:21:23.439
<v Speaker 13>Oh?

0:21:23.520 --> 0:21:24.360
<v Speaker 10>What because I.

0:21:24.280 --> 0:21:27.120
<v Speaker 11>Can't stand them? Do not support tampons and men's bathrooms?

0:21:27.200 --> 0:21:29.840
<v Speaker 2>No, I don't support tampons and men's bathrooms.

0:21:29.920 --> 0:21:32.520
<v Speaker 11>What because tampons are for women? Where are they going

0:21:32.560 --> 0:21:33.360
<v Speaker 11>to stick it up there?

0:21:34.080 --> 0:21:34.399
<v Speaker 10>Get it?

0:21:35.800 --> 0:21:36.960
<v Speaker 11>We'll head out of my property.

0:21:36.960 --> 0:21:37.720
<v Speaker 5>It looks good there though.

0:21:37.800 --> 0:21:40.399
<v Speaker 3>Wait, don't touch my sign. That's my signs.

0:21:40.480 --> 0:21:43.679
<v Speaker 9>Don't give a bunch of communists you didn't address me

0:21:43.680 --> 0:21:44.640
<v Speaker 9>by my pronouns.

0:21:45.840 --> 0:21:49.080
<v Speaker 2>Now these signs I think would be far more popular

0:21:49.119 --> 0:22:05.760
<v Speaker 2>in that neighborhood. You know, it's always disappointing when you

0:22:05.840 --> 0:22:09.399
<v Speaker 2>find out a great comic actress is actually a lame

0:22:09.480 --> 0:22:13.800
<v Speaker 2>lifting losing it when the world class writers aren't around.

0:22:14.000 --> 0:22:17.280
<v Speaker 3>This is what happens. Well, what we really need is a.

0:22:22.160 --> 0:22:26.879
<v Speaker 2>Oh dear, the cringe festa didn't end there.

0:22:30.040 --> 0:22:30.960
<v Speaker 7>Buddy, are a boy.

0:22:31.040 --> 0:22:35.200
<v Speaker 12>I make a big knife scene industry.

0:22:33.280 --> 0:22:33.359
<v Speaker 11>And.

0:22:35.960 --> 0:22:40.639
<v Speaker 2>It wasn't long before the Maga fans were making little

0:22:40.680 --> 0:22:43.879
<v Speaker 2>adjustments to that last clipper. Most of them I can't

0:22:44.080 --> 0:22:46.840
<v Speaker 2>show you, but this one is wholesome enough.

0:22:46.880 --> 0:22:47.359
<v Speaker 3>And look at that.

0:22:47.359 --> 0:22:50.000
<v Speaker 2>They've got a millennia look like that. Now, what a

0:22:50.080 --> 0:22:54.720
<v Speaker 2>shame to see Julia Luis Dreyfus engaging in these laymantics.

0:22:54.760 --> 0:22:58.200
<v Speaker 2>I preferred her earlier work, when in her role as Beep,

0:22:58.520 --> 0:23:02.120
<v Speaker 2>she was unintentionally mulking future vape haws.

0:23:02.280 --> 0:23:06.840
<v Speaker 14>My fellow Americans, words have many meanings, and sometimes instead

0:23:06.840 --> 0:23:09.679
<v Speaker 14>of conveying our meaning, they can suggest other meanings.

0:23:09.800 --> 0:23:12.760
<v Speaker 15>When we talk about the children of the community, they

0:23:12.800 --> 0:23:14.879
<v Speaker 15>are a children of the community.

0:23:15.000 --> 0:23:18.000
<v Speaker 14>Well, we are the United States of America because we

0:23:18.080 --> 0:23:21.320
<v Speaker 14>are united and we are states.

0:23:21.400 --> 0:23:25.280
<v Speaker 15>I'm talking about the significance of the passage of time, right,

0:23:25.400 --> 0:23:28.679
<v Speaker 15>the significance of the passage of time. So when you

0:23:28.760 --> 0:23:31.760
<v Speaker 15>think about it, there is great significance to the passage

0:23:31.760 --> 0:23:32.240
<v Speaker 15>of time.

0:23:32.480 --> 0:23:36.560
<v Speaker 11>Whatever we have in store.

0:23:37.920 --> 0:23:41.760
<v Speaker 14>Cannot be known. The past was once the future, the

0:23:41.800 --> 0:23:44.440
<v Speaker 14>future is, i should say unknown.

0:23:44.480 --> 0:23:47.040
<v Speaker 2>We've got to take this stuff seriously as seriously as you.

0:23:47.000 --> 0:23:48.720
<v Speaker 13>Are, because you have been forced to have to take

0:23:48.760 --> 0:23:49.360
<v Speaker 13>it seriously.

0:23:49.480 --> 0:23:52.520
<v Speaker 14>Obesity is a serious disease and it needs to be

0:23:52.600 --> 0:23:53.760
<v Speaker 14>taken seriously.

0:23:53.920 --> 0:23:55.840
<v Speaker 15>You need to get to go and need to be

0:23:55.880 --> 0:23:57.719
<v Speaker 15>able to get where you need to go to do

0:23:57.760 --> 0:23:58.960
<v Speaker 15>the work and get home.

0:23:59.080 --> 0:24:01.960
<v Speaker 14>I hope that Clara the issue and this can be

0:24:02.040 --> 0:24:03.880
<v Speaker 14>the last word on those words.

0:24:04.119 --> 0:24:07.480
<v Speaker 2>Now to a former CNN hack Don Lemon, who along

0:24:07.520 --> 0:24:13.480
<v Speaker 2>with the other media, was circulating utter bulldust about the massive.

0:24:13.119 --> 0:24:15.640
<v Speaker 3>Big names who would be appearing at the DNC.

0:24:16.480 --> 0:24:19.359
<v Speaker 2>Of course, this was all to boost the TV audience,

0:24:19.400 --> 0:24:21.960
<v Speaker 2>which was down on previous conventions.

0:24:22.400 --> 0:24:24.239
<v Speaker 16>I'm so you guys have read all the headlines, all

0:24:24.240 --> 0:24:26.200
<v Speaker 16>the stuff on social media about who's going to be

0:24:26.200 --> 0:24:26.680
<v Speaker 16>at the DNC.

0:24:26.840 --> 0:24:27.560
<v Speaker 5>Is it going to Beyonce?

0:24:27.720 --> 0:24:29.359
<v Speaker 16>Is it going to be Taylor Swift? Here's what I

0:24:29.400 --> 0:24:31.560
<v Speaker 16>hear from sources. If it's going to be anyone, it

0:24:31.600 --> 0:24:37.080
<v Speaker 16>would be Beyonce, Taylor Swift, and George W. Bush speaking,

0:24:37.560 --> 0:24:40.480
<v Speaker 16>those would be the heavy hitters, And it could happen.

0:24:40.920 --> 0:24:41.600
<v Speaker 11>I'm just saying.

0:24:42.840 --> 0:24:45.919
<v Speaker 2>And plenty more left is with my next guest. And

0:24:45.960 --> 0:24:48.199
<v Speaker 2>it was a case of where is the president and

0:24:48.280 --> 0:24:51.200
<v Speaker 2>where is the vice president? Both Biden and Harris failed

0:24:51.240 --> 0:24:54.320
<v Speaker 2>to turn up to Arlington National Cemetery to honor the

0:24:54.359 --> 0:24:58.359
<v Speaker 2>thirteen service members who died in the botch Afghanistan withdraw

0:24:58.560 --> 0:25:06.960
<v Speaker 2>three years ago, but President Donald Trump was there.

0:25:07.119 --> 0:25:19.480
<v Speaker 10>So oh.

0:25:19.560 --> 0:25:23.119
<v Speaker 2>It says plenty that both Harris and Biden were not

0:25:23.200 --> 0:25:28.280
<v Speaker 2>even invited, but President Trump was. Now they weren't too busy.

0:25:28.359 --> 0:25:32.119
<v Speaker 2>Biden had no public events scheduled. He was at his

0:25:32.240 --> 0:25:35.720
<v Speaker 2>beach house, and Kamala also had no public events scheduled.

0:25:35.840 --> 0:25:36.199
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

0:25:36.240 --> 0:25:39.440
<v Speaker 2>She was presumably busy practicing her different accents.

0:25:39.840 --> 0:25:42.600
<v Speaker 3>Joining me now is senior editor at Large.

0:25:42.280 --> 0:25:47.280
<v Speaker 2>For Newsweek and Article three Projects Senior Council. Josh Hammer, Josh,

0:25:47.440 --> 0:25:52.400
<v Speaker 2>They've had many, many failures during the Biden Harris administration's

0:25:52.640 --> 0:25:56.199
<v Speaker 2>almost four year rain now, but to my mind, the

0:25:56.280 --> 0:25:59.639
<v Speaker 2>botch withdrawal of Afghanistan is in the top five.

0:26:01.119 --> 0:26:05.240
<v Speaker 17>Yeah, Rita, Look, you know, I was actually a conservative

0:26:05.359 --> 0:26:08.080
<v Speaker 17>pundit who actually thought that the US should get out

0:26:08.119 --> 0:26:10.800
<v Speaker 17>of Afghanistan. I actually was calling for this for a while,

0:26:10.840 --> 0:26:13.640
<v Speaker 17>you know, from my perspective. You know, after Osama bin

0:26:13.680 --> 0:26:17.160
<v Speaker 17>Laden was taken out in Pakistan due to the Taliban

0:26:17.200 --> 0:26:19.919
<v Speaker 17>and Afghan forces helping to harbor him, obviously, but after that,

0:26:20.080 --> 0:26:23.520
<v Speaker 17>in my perspective, the mission in Afghanistan was actually done.

0:26:23.520 --> 0:26:26.119
<v Speaker 17>There was no need to get into this nation building crusade.

0:26:26.160 --> 0:26:28.479
<v Speaker 17>But having said that, there was a correct way to

0:26:28.480 --> 0:26:31.000
<v Speaker 17>do it, and there was a very incorrect way to

0:26:31.000 --> 0:26:33.840
<v Speaker 17>do it. And to this day, those images, those videos

0:26:33.880 --> 0:26:37.520
<v Speaker 17>that we saw the people falling off of the convoy

0:26:37.600 --> 0:26:40.399
<v Speaker 17>planes as they were taking off, the weapons left behind

0:26:40.480 --> 0:26:43.200
<v Speaker 17>that at Bagram Airfield, I mean, we saw a military

0:26:43.280 --> 0:26:46.400
<v Speaker 17>paradeing Cobble just a week or two ago. The Taliban

0:26:46.520 --> 0:26:49.479
<v Speaker 17>just just going through the seat, showcasing hundreds and hundreds

0:26:49.520 --> 0:26:54.120
<v Speaker 17>of everything from these to shoulder hoisted rocket propelled grenade

0:26:54.200 --> 0:26:57.760
<v Speaker 17>launchers to small arms aks ars, you name it there.

0:26:57.960 --> 0:27:01.560
<v Speaker 17>I mean, that is your that is our US taxpayer dollars.

0:27:01.800 --> 0:27:05.760
<v Speaker 17>That is literally funding a terrorist organization. I mean, it

0:27:05.800 --> 0:27:08.919
<v Speaker 17>doesn't get more explicit than that. So absolute shame for

0:27:09.040 --> 0:27:11.439
<v Speaker 17>Joe Biden and Kamala Harrison not take questions from the

0:27:11.480 --> 0:27:14.320
<v Speaker 17>press on this very solemn day. On the flip side, though,

0:27:15.080 --> 0:27:17.760
<v Speaker 17>huge political coup for Donald Trump. You know, he has

0:27:17.880 --> 0:27:20.640
<v Speaker 17>very sound instincts when it comes to this sort of thing.

0:27:20.920 --> 0:27:22.560
<v Speaker 17>This is now the first time that he has kind

0:27:22.600 --> 0:27:24.280
<v Speaker 17>of pulled at a stunt like this, But it's not

0:27:24.320 --> 0:27:26.040
<v Speaker 17>just a stunt, it's also very much the right thing

0:27:26.080 --> 0:27:26.840
<v Speaker 17>to do as well.

0:27:28.800 --> 0:27:32.840
<v Speaker 2>Oh absolutely, And former Democrat Tulsa Gabbett noted that as well,

0:27:33.200 --> 0:27:37.440
<v Speaker 2>she has endorsed Donald Trump to tell the National Guard

0:27:37.480 --> 0:27:41.280
<v Speaker 2>Association of the US, of which is a veteran, that

0:27:41.359 --> 0:27:46.240
<v Speaker 2>Trump understands better than Kamala Harris the grave responsibility of

0:27:46.280 --> 0:27:49.560
<v Speaker 2>the office. And she also explained a little bit about why,

0:27:49.600 --> 0:27:52.879
<v Speaker 2>after twenty years in the Democrats, she is now backing

0:27:52.920 --> 0:27:53.640
<v Speaker 2>Donald Trump.

0:27:54.160 --> 0:27:57.040
<v Speaker 18>So, I mean what I say when I share with

0:27:57.080 --> 0:28:00.359
<v Speaker 18>you that I know that President Trump understands the grave

0:28:00.440 --> 0:28:03.960
<v Speaker 18>responsibility that a president and commander in chief bears for

0:28:04.200 --> 0:28:08.320
<v Speaker 18>every single one of our lives. Whether you're a soldier,

0:28:08.359 --> 0:28:11.600
<v Speaker 18>you're an airman, a marine, sailor, or a coast he

0:28:11.800 --> 0:28:14.840
<v Speaker 18>keeps us in his heart in the decisions that he makes.

0:28:15.960 --> 0:28:18.280
<v Speaker 18>We saw this through his first term in the presidency,

0:28:19.280 --> 0:28:22.199
<v Speaker 18>when he not only didn't start any new wars, he

0:28:22.280 --> 0:28:27.720
<v Speaker 18>took action to de escalate and prevent wars. He exercised

0:28:27.720 --> 0:28:30.760
<v Speaker 18>the courage that we expect from our commander in chief

0:28:31.119 --> 0:28:35.280
<v Speaker 18>in exhausting all measures of diplomacy, having the courage to

0:28:35.359 --> 0:28:41.040
<v Speaker 18>meet with adversaries, dictators, allies and partners alike in the

0:28:41.080 --> 0:28:47.480
<v Speaker 18>pursuit of peace, seeing war as a last resort. The

0:28:47.560 --> 0:28:50.760
<v Speaker 18>truth is, as we head towards our decision as a

0:28:50.760 --> 0:28:55.480
<v Speaker 18>country in November, the same cannot be said about Kamala Harris.

0:28:56.640 --> 0:28:58.880
<v Speaker 18>In fact, the opposite is true, and we're living through

0:28:58.880 --> 0:29:04.000
<v Speaker 18>this reality today as this administration has us facing multiple

0:29:04.040 --> 0:29:07.880
<v Speaker 18>wars on multiple fronts and regions around the world, and

0:29:08.040 --> 0:29:10.840
<v Speaker 18>closer to the brink of nuclear war than we ever

0:29:10.960 --> 0:29:15.400
<v Speaker 18>have been before. This is one of the main reasons

0:29:15.440 --> 0:29:17.640
<v Speaker 18>why I'm committed to doing all that I can to

0:29:17.720 --> 0:29:20.080
<v Speaker 18>send President Trump back to the White House where he

0:29:20.120 --> 0:29:22.560
<v Speaker 18>can once again serve us as our commander in chief.

0:29:24.840 --> 0:29:28.920
<v Speaker 2>Josha also spoke about observing Donald Trump with the gold

0:29:28.960 --> 0:29:34.160
<v Speaker 2>Staff families and noting how he really understands and appreciates

0:29:34.200 --> 0:29:38.440
<v Speaker 2>the sacrifice of those who serve This is a powerful.

0:29:37.960 --> 0:29:43.400
<v Speaker 17>Endorsement, extraordinarily powerful. I mean, it's probably important to remind

0:29:43.440 --> 0:29:46.000
<v Speaker 17>the viewers scarit. You know, Tulci Gabberd ran for President

0:29:46.040 --> 0:29:48.760
<v Speaker 17>of the United States as a Democrat just four years ago.

0:29:48.840 --> 0:29:51.720
<v Speaker 17>I mean, she was in that very crowded primary, the

0:29:51.720 --> 0:29:54.480
<v Speaker 17>primary that Joe Biden ultimately won, the primary by the way,

0:29:54.480 --> 0:29:57.120
<v Speaker 17>in which Kamala Harris did not get a single primary

0:29:57.160 --> 0:29:59.440
<v Speaker 17>delegate because she was out well before the first votes

0:29:59.440 --> 0:30:02.960
<v Speaker 17>were cast. But you know this is consecutive weekdays, rita.

0:30:03.480 --> 0:30:06.320
<v Speaker 17>So the Tulsi endorsement was Monday. Here in the US,

0:30:06.880 --> 0:30:10.880
<v Speaker 17>RFK Junior endorsed on Friday. You know, those are two very,

0:30:11.000 --> 0:30:14.960
<v Speaker 17>very very prominent ex Democrats who are endorsing Donald Trump now,

0:30:15.160 --> 0:30:18.200
<v Speaker 17>frankly for very similar reasons too. Actually, if you connect

0:30:18.240 --> 0:30:20.960
<v Speaker 17>the dots between these two high profile endorsements, they're both

0:30:21.000 --> 0:30:23.600
<v Speaker 17>talking a lot about the fact that Donald Trump is

0:30:23.640 --> 0:30:26.880
<v Speaker 17>a man of peace, which actually makes a great deal

0:30:26.920 --> 0:30:28.680
<v Speaker 17>of sense when you consider the fact that during his

0:30:28.840 --> 0:30:32.040
<v Speaker 17>four years as president, the world was not on fire

0:30:32.160 --> 0:30:35.600
<v Speaker 17>in virtually every geopolitical and strategic theater that you can name.

0:30:35.880 --> 0:30:39.560
<v Speaker 17>Vladner Putin did not invade Ukraine, Oran Has Balajamas were

0:30:39.600 --> 0:30:42.880
<v Speaker 17>not circling up on Israel. Maduro den In, Venezuela is

0:30:42.920 --> 0:30:45.760
<v Speaker 17>not trying to invade oil and natural gas fields next door.

0:30:45.840 --> 0:30:47.920
<v Speaker 17>China was contained in the East and South Chinese. I

0:30:47.960 --> 0:30:50.040
<v Speaker 17>could go I could go on there. But you know,

0:30:50.360 --> 0:30:52.800
<v Speaker 17>it's such a turning up the script reata from where

0:30:52.840 --> 0:30:54.960
<v Speaker 17>the two parties here in the US were as recently

0:30:54.960 --> 0:30:57.000
<v Speaker 17>as fifteen twenty years ago. You know, back when John

0:30:57.080 --> 0:30:59.840
<v Speaker 17>McCain was running for essentially a third Bush turn back

0:30:59.840 --> 0:31:01.920
<v Speaker 17>in two thousand and eight. You know, Republicans at that

0:31:01.960 --> 0:31:04.920
<v Speaker 17>time where the party of spreading democracy and these moralistic

0:31:04.960 --> 0:31:06.280
<v Speaker 17>boondoggles overseas.

0:31:06.400 --> 0:31:08.560
<v Speaker 11>You know how the script has turned.

0:31:08.560 --> 0:31:10.360
<v Speaker 17>Now in the year twenty twenty four, you have former

0:31:10.400 --> 0:31:14.720
<v Speaker 17>Democrats endorsing a Republican for purposes at peace, whereas the

0:31:14.800 --> 0:31:18.200
<v Speaker 17>Biden Harris establishment is in fever. Frankly, of these of

0:31:18.200 --> 0:31:20.760
<v Speaker 17>these feckless forever wars including the Russia Ukraine Theater.

0:31:23.080 --> 0:31:27.200
<v Speaker 2>And let's not forget that when Trump first ran, one

0:31:27.280 --> 0:31:30.760
<v Speaker 2>of the biggest warnings we kept hearing is he's going

0:31:30.800 --> 0:31:33.880
<v Speaker 2>to start World War three. It's going to be catastrophe

0:31:35.120 --> 0:31:38.520
<v Speaker 2>for the world, not just America. And of course, we

0:31:38.600 --> 0:31:42.040
<v Speaker 2>had four years of peace, We had the Abraham Accords,

0:31:42.040 --> 0:31:47.720
<v Speaker 2>we had all sorts of normalizations of relationships, and since

0:31:47.720 --> 0:31:51.320
<v Speaker 2>then we've seen what's happened under the Biden Harris administration.

0:31:51.960 --> 0:31:56.360
<v Speaker 2>Now let's talk about the vice presidential candidate, Tim Walls,

0:31:56.440 --> 0:32:00.640
<v Speaker 2>Kamala's VP candidate. He's been acqu of lying.

0:32:00.960 --> 0:32:03.720
<v Speaker 3>Again. Walls has already.

0:32:03.400 --> 0:32:05.800
<v Speaker 2>Stretched the truth, and that's putting it kindly on his

0:32:05.880 --> 0:32:11.240
<v Speaker 2>military service, his wife's futility journey is now being accused

0:32:11.240 --> 0:32:15.239
<v Speaker 2>of claiming awards he never received. A two thousand and

0:32:15.320 --> 0:32:19.000
<v Speaker 2>six letter from the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce has resurfaced,

0:32:19.480 --> 0:32:23.600
<v Speaker 2>reprimanding the then congressional hopeful Walls for claiming on his

0:32:23.680 --> 0:32:26.240
<v Speaker 2>website that he had received an award from them in

0:32:26.320 --> 0:32:29.160
<v Speaker 2>nineteen ninety three for his work with the business community.

0:32:29.560 --> 0:32:33.880
<v Speaker 2>The letter is fairly strongly worded. It reads, we research

0:32:34.040 --> 0:32:37.120
<v Speaker 2>this matter and confirmed that you have not been the

0:32:37.160 --> 0:32:40.600
<v Speaker 2>recipient of any award from the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce.

0:32:41.120 --> 0:32:42.240
<v Speaker 3>I'm not going to draw.

0:32:42.080 --> 0:32:45.360
<v Speaker 2>A conclusion about your intentions by including this line in

0:32:45.400 --> 0:32:49.960
<v Speaker 2>your biography. However, we respectfully request that you remove any

0:32:50.080 --> 0:32:54.320
<v Speaker 2>reference to our organization, as it could be considered an

0:32:54.440 --> 0:33:00.200
<v Speaker 2>endorsement of your candidacy. Jesus, from the Dui liize to

0:33:00.440 --> 0:33:04.400
<v Speaker 2>the tampons in boys' bassrooms to stolen valor.

0:33:05.040 --> 0:33:06.760
<v Speaker 3>I mean, this guy is a bit of a disaster,

0:33:06.960 --> 0:33:07.320
<v Speaker 3>isn't he.

0:33:09.080 --> 0:33:10.000
<v Speaker 11>Yeah, he really is.

0:33:10.200 --> 0:33:13.440
<v Speaker 17>And you know, when you consider how Tim Walls progressed,

0:33:13.440 --> 0:33:15.080
<v Speaker 17>I guess would be a polite way of putting it.

0:33:15.120 --> 0:33:17.520
<v Speaker 17>I guess Barack Obama will call it evolved. You know,

0:33:17.560 --> 0:33:20.000
<v Speaker 17>when you look at Tim Walls's evolution from when he

0:33:20.080 --> 0:33:24.200
<v Speaker 17>was a congressman representing Minnesota to his time as governor,

0:33:24.440 --> 0:33:26.560
<v Speaker 17>you know, you see how dishonest this man is. And

0:33:26.600 --> 0:33:28.880
<v Speaker 17>I say that because when Tim Walls first ran for Congress,

0:33:28.880 --> 0:33:30.400
<v Speaker 17>it was back in two thousand and six, which is

0:33:30.440 --> 0:33:33.520
<v Speaker 17>which is a difficult cycle for many Democrats, and he

0:33:33.560 --> 0:33:36.320
<v Speaker 17>was running actually in a Republican leaning district. He actually

0:33:36.320 --> 0:33:39.680
<v Speaker 17>took many right of center positions. He stood for relative

0:33:39.720 --> 0:33:41.920
<v Speaker 17>fiscal sanity. Actually, I mean This is the guy who

0:33:41.960 --> 0:33:46.240
<v Speaker 17>now is saying that one person's socialism is another person's neighborliness.

0:33:46.440 --> 0:33:49.240
<v Speaker 17>Back then, he was preaching fiscal sanity. He actually even

0:33:49.280 --> 0:33:52.160
<v Speaker 17>gartered an NRA endorsement. He was a defender of the

0:33:52.160 --> 0:33:54.320
<v Speaker 17>Second Amendment of your right to keep him bare arms.

0:33:54.560 --> 0:33:57.600
<v Speaker 17>He spoke at APAC conferences. He was a reliable supporter

0:33:57.640 --> 0:33:59.680
<v Speaker 17>of US Israel relations. I mean, I could go down

0:33:59.720 --> 0:34:02.120
<v Speaker 17>the line. But then when he got into the governor's

0:34:02.160 --> 0:34:09.480
<v Speaker 17>mansion in Minnesota, everything changed. Became the single greatest banner

0:34:09.520 --> 0:34:11.960
<v Speaker 17>of the flames frankly of the George Floyd riots of

0:34:11.960 --> 0:34:15.080
<v Speaker 17>twenty twenty. I mean, those riots started in his own backyard.

0:34:15.120 --> 0:34:17.040
<v Speaker 17>He abetted them. He set up a he set up

0:34:17.080 --> 0:34:20.880
<v Speaker 17>a COVID snitch hotline to rat out your neighbors if

0:34:20.920 --> 0:34:23.520
<v Speaker 17>you were if you were so much as congregating outside there.

0:34:23.920 --> 0:34:25.839
<v Speaker 17>I mean, I mean, the guy just went from a

0:34:25.960 --> 0:34:30.319
<v Speaker 17>centrist Democrat to a hard laugh socialist loanbag. And the

0:34:30.360 --> 0:34:33.080
<v Speaker 17>fact that he was so dishonest, I guess in retrospect,

0:34:33.080 --> 0:34:36.399
<v Speaker 17>when he was representing Minnesota in Congress for twelve years,

0:34:36.719 --> 0:34:38.279
<v Speaker 17>I mean, you know, you look here at the at

0:34:38.280 --> 0:34:40.440
<v Speaker 17>these statements from the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce.

0:34:40.480 --> 0:34:41.520
<v Speaker 11>It kind of all makes sense.

0:34:41.560 --> 0:34:43.480
<v Speaker 17>But you know, Rita hearing that quote there, and it's

0:34:43.520 --> 0:34:46.200
<v Speaker 17>a rather funny quote actually from the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce.

0:34:46.440 --> 0:34:48.040
<v Speaker 17>You know, here in the United States, I guess the

0:34:48.080 --> 0:34:50.399
<v Speaker 17>equivalent expression of what they're trying to say, at least

0:34:50.400 --> 0:34:53.160
<v Speaker 17>in the southern US, would be bless your heart, which

0:34:53.200 --> 0:34:56.040
<v Speaker 17>is a very shall we say, kind way of giving

0:34:56.120 --> 0:34:57.000
<v Speaker 17>someone the middle finger.

0:34:58.920 --> 0:35:04.200
<v Speaker 3>Yes, it sounds polite, but it's not. Now. Trump may

0:35:04.200 --> 0:35:06.840
<v Speaker 3>have got the endorsements of Robert F.

0:35:06.920 --> 0:35:10.480
<v Speaker 2>Kennedy and Telsey Gabbard, but I think the most powerful

0:35:10.640 --> 0:35:14.920
<v Speaker 2>endorsement he has in recent days is this because many

0:35:14.960 --> 0:35:19.560
<v Speaker 2>many establishment Republican figures, the Rhinos as their known Republicans

0:35:19.560 --> 0:35:24.160
<v Speaker 2>in name only, are throwing their support behind Kamala Harris.

0:35:24.200 --> 0:35:28.240
<v Speaker 2>There's around two hundred former staffers of President George Bush,

0:35:28.480 --> 0:35:32.000
<v Speaker 2>George W. Bush, and Senator John McCain and Mitt Romney

0:35:32.800 --> 0:35:37.960
<v Speaker 2>backing Kamala and I think this is wonderful news for

0:35:38.000 --> 0:35:40.480
<v Speaker 2>the Trump cab bait. I wouldn't be surprised if this

0:35:40.600 --> 0:35:41.560
<v Speaker 2>makes his next ad.

0:35:43.560 --> 0:35:46.120
<v Speaker 17>Yeah, I mean, this actually is really exactly what I

0:35:46.200 --> 0:35:48.040
<v Speaker 17>was talking about just a few minutes ago. I mean

0:35:48.080 --> 0:35:50.520
<v Speaker 17>how the parties have switched over the past fifteen twenty

0:35:50.640 --> 0:35:53.040
<v Speaker 17>years or so. I mean, back then, the Republicans were

0:35:53.040 --> 0:35:56.279
<v Speaker 17>really the party of these neo conservative boondoggles. They were

0:35:56.320 --> 0:35:59.359
<v Speaker 17>the party of las a fair fundamentalism when it came

0:35:59.400 --> 0:36:02.120
<v Speaker 17>to so called free trade with our geopolitical foes such

0:36:02.120 --> 0:36:05.400
<v Speaker 17>as China. And back then, you know, at least the

0:36:05.440 --> 0:36:08.960
<v Speaker 17>economically populace bordering on socialist wing in the Democratic Party

0:36:09.000 --> 0:36:11.960
<v Speaker 17>purported to stand against those things. They were against wars,

0:36:12.000 --> 0:36:16.319
<v Speaker 17>they were against free trade, absolutism, they supported economic nationalism. Then,

0:36:16.600 --> 0:36:19.120
<v Speaker 17>you know, I'm simplifying a little bit here, but fifteen

0:36:19.160 --> 0:36:21.880
<v Speaker 17>twenty years later, the script seriously has changed there. So,

0:36:22.080 --> 0:36:24.279
<v Speaker 17>I mean, I'm not particularly surprised that a lot of

0:36:24.320 --> 0:36:27.640
<v Speaker 17>these flunkies, the people that failed us in Iraq and Afghanistan,

0:36:27.680 --> 0:36:29.960
<v Speaker 17>that had the wrong idea, The people that had this

0:36:30.080 --> 0:36:33.320
<v Speaker 17>idea that admitting China to the World Trade Organization on

0:36:33.400 --> 0:36:36.000
<v Speaker 17>a most Favor Nation status with the United States, The

0:36:36.000 --> 0:36:38.759
<v Speaker 17>people that thought that would somehow end up as a

0:36:38.800 --> 0:36:41.439
<v Speaker 17>good deal for the United States taxpayer, for the United

0:36:41.440 --> 0:36:43.399
<v Speaker 17>States worker and the rust bell. The people that thought

0:36:43.400 --> 0:36:45.080
<v Speaker 17>that that would be a good idea to give our

0:36:45.200 --> 0:36:47.279
<v Speaker 17>arch geopolitical foe the very rope with.

0:36:47.239 --> 0:36:48.320
<v Speaker 11>Which to hang ourselves.

0:36:48.480 --> 0:36:51.239
<v Speaker 17>I'm not surprised that these bunch of bumbling idiots are

0:36:51.239 --> 0:36:54.240
<v Speaker 17>now endorsing the Democratic Party because the Party of Donald

0:36:54.280 --> 0:36:56.759
<v Speaker 17>Trump and the current Republican Party has moved in a

0:36:56.880 --> 0:36:59.400
<v Speaker 17>very different direction. I am happy with that, and I

0:36:59.440 --> 0:37:01.440
<v Speaker 17>am frankly happy that they are not happy with that.

0:37:02.040 --> 0:37:02.239
<v Speaker 13>Now.

0:37:02.360 --> 0:37:06.400
<v Speaker 2>Josh Facebook is claiming that it made an error and

0:37:06.440 --> 0:37:09.040
<v Speaker 2>listened to error when it removed a page critical of

0:37:09.120 --> 0:37:13.600
<v Speaker 2>cultural Marxism. This was a page connected to conservative liberal

0:37:13.719 --> 0:37:19.440
<v Speaker 2>arts College Hillsdale. But these mistakes are happening way too often,

0:37:19.840 --> 0:37:22.200
<v Speaker 2>often near an election, and it's always seems to be

0:37:22.360 --> 0:37:24.000
<v Speaker 2>in the same direction.

0:37:25.040 --> 0:37:27.480
<v Speaker 3>They claim it was just taken down.

0:37:27.239 --> 0:37:31.279
<v Speaker 2>In eerr it's been restored, but I'm a little bit

0:37:31.360 --> 0:37:34.879
<v Speaker 2>dubious of that because I see this over and over again,

0:37:34.920 --> 0:37:37.640
<v Speaker 2>and as I said, it seems to be these mistakes

0:37:37.640 --> 0:37:40.840
<v Speaker 2>are only ever made against conservatives.

0:37:42.800 --> 0:37:45.400
<v Speaker 17>Yeah, you know, it's tough to see what's happening in

0:37:45.480 --> 0:37:47.919
<v Speaker 17>MATA right now. You know, Mark Zuckerberg is actually giving

0:37:48.000 --> 0:37:51.239
<v Speaker 17>us very mixed signals. So it was actually, you know,

0:37:51.320 --> 0:37:53.200
<v Speaker 17>less than twenty four hours ago that he sent the

0:37:53.360 --> 0:37:57.040
<v Speaker 17>very interesting letter reader. I actually just saw this letter

0:37:57.200 --> 0:37:59.040
<v Speaker 17>just an hour or two before I hopped on with you.

0:37:59.160 --> 0:38:01.400
<v Speaker 17>And in this life letter that Mark Zuckerberg wrote to

0:38:01.440 --> 0:38:04.320
<v Speaker 17>Congressman Jim Jordan, the chair of the House Juciary Committee,

0:38:04.320 --> 0:38:07.920
<v Speaker 17>this strong conservative from Ohio. In this letter, Mark Zuckerberg

0:38:08.000 --> 0:38:12.560
<v Speaker 17>actually one admits that the buying administration was coercing Facebook

0:38:12.600 --> 0:38:15.520
<v Speaker 17>to censor COVID related speech, and then he says that

0:38:15.560 --> 0:38:18.719
<v Speaker 17>he regrets not speaking up in hindsight because the government's

0:38:18.800 --> 0:38:22.120
<v Speaker 17>trying to censor Facebook is actually wrong. So he's trying

0:38:22.160 --> 0:38:24.040
<v Speaker 17>to do a bit of an about face here. And

0:38:24.120 --> 0:38:28.040
<v Speaker 17>I also note that after the near Trump assassination in Butler, Pennsylvania,

0:38:28.120 --> 0:38:31.520
<v Speaker 17>last month, I also note that Zuckerberg had an interview

0:38:31.560 --> 0:38:34.440
<v Speaker 17>where he said that Donald Trump came off looking like

0:38:34.480 --> 0:38:38.120
<v Speaker 17>a total badass. Frankly, So, I mean, you know, I'm

0:38:38.120 --> 0:38:41.359
<v Speaker 17>not sure exactly what Zuckerberg is thinking these days.

0:38:41.360 --> 0:38:42.920
<v Speaker 11>He's getting at very mixed signals here.

0:38:42.920 --> 0:38:45.000
<v Speaker 17>To be honest with you, what I do know is

0:38:45.000 --> 0:38:47.920
<v Speaker 17>that I have long, long been of the opinion that

0:38:47.960 --> 0:38:51.239
<v Speaker 17>we need something closely approximate in common carrier regulation the

0:38:51.280 --> 0:38:54.200
<v Speaker 17>same way that your cell phone is regulated, and you

0:38:54.280 --> 0:38:56.759
<v Speaker 17>can't censor on the base of content there that is

0:38:56.760 --> 0:39:01.200
<v Speaker 17>attachable for the social media platforms as well.

0:39:00.480 --> 0:39:03.719
<v Speaker 2>And I think that's precisely what he's terrified of. And

0:39:03.760 --> 0:39:06.880
<v Speaker 2>why is he can read polls as well as the

0:39:06.920 --> 0:39:12.719
<v Speaker 2>next person. Despite Carmala's resurgence, I think he's expecting a

0:39:12.760 --> 0:39:16.719
<v Speaker 2>second Trump term and he's trying to.

0:39:16.920 --> 0:39:18.400
<v Speaker 3>Win back favor to.

0:39:20.000 --> 0:39:23.720
<v Speaker 2>Memory hold the fact that he personally donated what four hundred,

0:39:23.760 --> 0:39:26.239
<v Speaker 2>four hundred and fifty million of his own money to

0:39:26.719 --> 0:39:30.080
<v Speaker 2>fortify the last election, And to me, it's just all

0:39:30.120 --> 0:39:32.920
<v Speaker 2>too little, too late. It's too late now to come

0:39:32.960 --> 0:39:37.520
<v Speaker 2>out and talk about how Meta was coerced to censor

0:39:38.000 --> 0:39:43.360
<v Speaker 2>particular opinions or individuals. And I think he's particularly terrified

0:39:43.400 --> 0:39:46.600
<v Speaker 2>of jd Vance because this seems to be a passion

0:39:46.680 --> 0:39:51.000
<v Speaker 2>project for him, tackling big tech and the almost virtual

0:39:51.040 --> 0:39:53.600
<v Speaker 2>monopoly some of these organizations enjoy.

0:39:54.160 --> 0:39:56.360
<v Speaker 3>Josh Hammer, always a pleasure. Thank you so much for

0:39:56.400 --> 0:39:57.200
<v Speaker 3>your time this evening.

0:39:58.120 --> 0:39:59.600
<v Speaker 11>Thanks for having me still.

0:39:59.440 --> 0:40:03.200
<v Speaker 2>To Karma heartbroken, Ben Affleck is spending time with RFK

0:40:03.480 --> 0:40:07.160
<v Speaker 2>Junior's daughter, And why is Tiger Woods being like it?

0:40:07.239 --> 0:40:09.759
<v Speaker 2>To Prince Harry Kinsey Schofield joins me.

0:40:09.840 --> 0:40:10.560
<v Speaker 10>Next.

0:40:18.600 --> 0:40:20.200
<v Speaker 3>You're watching the Rita Panney Show.

0:40:20.320 --> 0:40:24.520
<v Speaker 2>Joining me now is entertainment and royal reporter Kinsey Schofield.

0:40:25.040 --> 0:40:26.880
<v Speaker 3>Kinsey Taylor Swift.

0:40:26.560 --> 0:40:29.840
<v Speaker 2>Fans have been accused of bullying the wife of American

0:40:29.880 --> 0:40:35.160
<v Speaker 2>footballer Patrick Mahomes over her support for Trump. Brittany Mahomes,

0:40:35.200 --> 0:40:39.960
<v Speaker 2>whose husband is considered the very best player in the NFL,

0:40:40.080 --> 0:40:43.319
<v Speaker 2>like to post on Instagram from Donald Trump. I think

0:40:43.320 --> 0:40:47.000
<v Speaker 2>it was highlighting the twenty twenty four Republican platform, and

0:40:47.120 --> 0:40:51.200
<v Speaker 2>of course that has seen a demented campaign of hate

0:40:51.480 --> 0:40:54.919
<v Speaker 2>come her way from the left, including some swifties.

0:40:55.520 --> 0:40:56.360
<v Speaker 3>And of course.

0:40:56.120 --> 0:41:01.080
<v Speaker 2>Taylor's boyfriend Travis Kelcey plays alongside Patrick Mahomes and the

0:41:01.080 --> 0:41:04.640
<v Speaker 2>two wags are often seen together watching games.

0:41:05.040 --> 0:41:05.799
<v Speaker 3>Tell me about this.

0:41:05.920 --> 0:41:09.920
<v Speaker 2>I've got to say I've been very impressed by Britney's

0:41:10.000 --> 0:41:15.680
<v Speaker 2>reluctance to apologize or back away from lacking this Instagram

0:41:15.719 --> 0:41:18.960
<v Speaker 2>posts from Donald Trump, because that's normally what happens.

0:41:19.400 --> 0:41:21.960
<v Speaker 13>Right, and her reaction was to be a hater. As

0:41:22.040 --> 0:41:25.120
<v Speaker 13>an adult, you have to have some deep rooted issues

0:41:25.880 --> 0:41:29.200
<v Speaker 13>you refuse to heal from. So she really is saying,

0:41:29.840 --> 0:41:31.720
<v Speaker 13>why don't you guys take a look in the mirror

0:41:31.760 --> 0:41:35.960
<v Speaker 13>instead of attacking me. And the reality is she tweeted

0:41:36.040 --> 0:41:40.759
<v Speaker 13>some pretty unkind things about Taylor Swift between twenty twelve

0:41:40.840 --> 0:41:45.719
<v Speaker 13>and twenty thirteen. She accused Taylor of writing music just

0:41:45.760 --> 0:41:47.960
<v Speaker 13>about boys and how she needed to find something else

0:41:48.000 --> 0:41:51.600
<v Speaker 13>to write music about. So for swifties to threaten Brittany

0:41:51.880 --> 0:41:55.839
<v Speaker 13>that Taylor's going to disown her over one like on Instagram,

0:41:56.160 --> 0:41:59.280
<v Speaker 13>I think that Taylor has forgiven her for much worse.

0:42:02.080 --> 0:42:04.799
<v Speaker 2>And I think I don't think Britney cares because in

0:42:04.840 --> 0:42:08.520
<v Speaker 2>that wag world where she exists, I think it's all

0:42:08.560 --> 0:42:12.040
<v Speaker 2>about how good your husband is, and her husband's number one,

0:42:12.200 --> 0:42:14.200
<v Speaker 2>So Travis is way down on the list when you

0:42:14.719 --> 0:42:18.680
<v Speaker 2>compare him to Patrick. So I just start don't know

0:42:18.760 --> 0:42:20.840
<v Speaker 2>much about this girl, I've got to say, But I

0:42:20.880 --> 0:42:24.680
<v Speaker 2>do admire the fact that she's not backing down because

0:42:24.960 --> 0:42:28.920
<v Speaker 2>people far more powerful than her just take a knee

0:42:28.920 --> 0:42:32.600
<v Speaker 2>when the hate mob come for them. Now, it hasn't

0:42:32.640 --> 0:42:35.680
<v Speaker 2>been a good week for actor Ben Affleck. News of

0:42:35.719 --> 0:42:39.359
<v Speaker 2>his divorce from wife Jennifer Lopez finally came out. It's

0:42:39.400 --> 0:42:42.879
<v Speaker 2>been talked about for months, and the news did come

0:42:42.880 --> 0:42:45.640
<v Speaker 2>out during the Democratic National Convention. There was a bit

0:42:45.680 --> 0:42:48.919
<v Speaker 2>of conjecture that it was timed to sort of get

0:42:48.960 --> 0:42:49.480
<v Speaker 2>lost in.

0:42:49.440 --> 0:42:50.800
<v Speaker 3>All that news.

0:42:51.320 --> 0:42:56.520
<v Speaker 2>But now he's been connected with a well A Kennedy

0:42:56.640 --> 0:43:00.279
<v Speaker 2>tell me about this? Is he dating Kick Kennedy or ready?

0:43:01.480 --> 0:43:04.279
<v Speaker 13>I mean, I do think that reports are legitimate. A

0:43:04.320 --> 0:43:08.000
<v Speaker 13>Hollywood insider told Page six that Kick and Ben have

0:43:08.120 --> 0:43:10.680
<v Speaker 13>been spotted at the Polo Lounge, at the Beverly Hills

0:43:10.680 --> 0:43:14.200
<v Speaker 13>Hotel and other hot spots. Apparently Ben has always been

0:43:14.360 --> 0:43:17.880
<v Speaker 13>Kick's celebrity crush, and reports suggests that they might have

0:43:17.960 --> 0:43:21.400
<v Speaker 13>hooked up before Ben and Jen got back together the

0:43:21.480 --> 0:43:24.960
<v Speaker 13>second time. So you know, I believe these reports that

0:43:25.000 --> 0:43:28.720
<v Speaker 13>they've been seen together. And I also think Kick is beautiful,

0:43:28.800 --> 0:43:32.160
<v Speaker 13>comes from a dynasty family, yet appears to stay out

0:43:32.200 --> 0:43:36.200
<v Speaker 13>of the limelight. So perhaps she is more Ben's speed.

0:43:36.880 --> 0:43:38.880
<v Speaker 13>But you know, he doesn't seem like a very joyful

0:43:38.880 --> 0:43:40.280
<v Speaker 13>person to me, so hard pass.

0:43:41.000 --> 0:43:45.920
<v Speaker 2>No, he is just He's got a lot of Prince

0:43:46.000 --> 0:43:46.840
<v Speaker 2>Harry Abadie.

0:43:47.000 --> 0:43:48.400
<v Speaker 3>He is just miserable.

0:43:48.440 --> 0:43:52.080
<v Speaker 2>He seems to have these wonderful life, earning millions of

0:43:52.160 --> 0:43:59.000
<v Speaker 2>dollars to act as at a string of glamorous girlfriends

0:43:59.200 --> 0:44:03.160
<v Speaker 2>and wives, and every time you see him, he seems miserable.

0:44:03.200 --> 0:44:06.400
<v Speaker 2>He made such a fool of himself at the Tom

0:44:06.440 --> 0:44:09.640
<v Speaker 2>Brady Roast, remember that where everyone killed it on stage

0:44:09.760 --> 0:44:13.880
<v Speaker 2>except him, and people were left perplexed by what he

0:44:14.000 --> 0:44:16.520
<v Speaker 2>was trying to do because it wasn't funny, it wasn't clever.

0:44:16.640 --> 0:44:21.160
<v Speaker 2>He just came off a little unhinged. Now, Kamala headquarters

0:44:21.920 --> 0:44:25.279
<v Speaker 2>are still trying to push the narrative that Kamala is

0:44:25.440 --> 0:44:28.440
<v Speaker 2>brat like singer Charlie xc X.

0:44:28.760 --> 0:44:29.920
<v Speaker 3>A lot of people don't even know.

0:44:29.880 --> 0:44:33.600
<v Speaker 2>What that means, what bratt means. Bill Maher explains it here,

0:44:34.280 --> 0:44:36.320
<v Speaker 2>and he says there's an issue with the messaging.

0:44:37.040 --> 0:44:40.120
<v Speaker 1>This is how she herself defined to Charlie, that girl

0:44:40.160 --> 0:44:42.719
<v Speaker 1>who is a little messy and likes to party and

0:44:42.800 --> 0:44:47.719
<v Speaker 1>maybe says some dumb things sometimes, who feels herself and

0:44:47.800 --> 0:44:49.319
<v Speaker 1>maybe also has a breakdown.

0:44:53.200 --> 0:44:54.600
<v Speaker 3>What kind of are you identifying with?

0:44:54.719 --> 0:44:55.520
<v Speaker 11>That's how you feel like.

0:44:55.680 --> 0:44:57.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying, I don't want my president to be this

0:45:00.160 --> 0:45:03.600
<v Speaker 1>kind of like parties through it, a little bit volatile,

0:45:03.719 --> 0:45:06.279
<v Speaker 1>like does dumb things. It sounds like Trump, It.

0:45:06.239 --> 0:45:07.040
<v Speaker 5>Doesn't sound like.

0:45:09.200 --> 0:45:10.320
<v Speaker 11>Do you think Trump is brat?

0:45:10.480 --> 0:45:11.880
<v Speaker 1>I think he's very bratt.

0:45:13.000 --> 0:45:15.440
<v Speaker 2>I didn't even know what bratt really meantime until now,

0:45:15.560 --> 0:45:19.279
<v Speaker 2>so I'm happy about that, But does this, really, I

0:45:19.280 --> 0:45:21.960
<v Speaker 2>don't know, speak to the younger generations. Is this going

0:45:22.040 --> 0:45:24.759
<v Speaker 2>to motivate them to register to vote and turn up

0:45:24.760 --> 0:45:25.239
<v Speaker 2>on the day?

0:45:26.440 --> 0:45:29.600
<v Speaker 13>I think it reeks of desperation, you know, similar to

0:45:29.719 --> 0:45:34.399
<v Speaker 13>the DNC, the idea of being brat. There's no substance there.

0:45:35.320 --> 0:45:39.440
<v Speaker 13>We want lower medication costs, lower gas prices, lower groceries.

0:45:39.480 --> 0:45:42.120
<v Speaker 13>We want a serious candidate that hasn't set on cruise

0:45:42.160 --> 0:45:45.440
<v Speaker 13>control for the last three years, accomplishing nothing of value.

0:45:45.600 --> 0:45:48.239
<v Speaker 13>And while I get Bill's point, and it does make

0:45:48.239 --> 0:45:51.000
<v Speaker 13>me laugh, and I tend to agree Trump is a

0:45:51.040 --> 0:45:55.400
<v Speaker 13>serious candidate who talks about the issues, So I disagree

0:45:55.760 --> 0:45:58.040
<v Speaker 13>fully that he's gone full brat.

0:46:00.160 --> 0:46:00.520
<v Speaker 3>Yes.

0:46:01.239 --> 0:46:05.560
<v Speaker 2>Now, the author behind a new biography into golfing legend

0:46:05.680 --> 0:46:09.720
<v Speaker 2>Tiger Woods has called him the Prince Harry of Sport.

0:46:10.200 --> 0:46:13.600
<v Speaker 2>James Patterson told The Daily Mail both Harry and Woods

0:46:14.000 --> 0:46:17.760
<v Speaker 2>were in a gilded cage and trapped by fame, saying

0:46:18.040 --> 0:46:20.760
<v Speaker 2>they're not allowed to be real people to be out

0:46:20.800 --> 0:46:23.719
<v Speaker 2>in the world. I think that's probably a little bit

0:46:23.760 --> 0:46:24.960
<v Speaker 2>of a problem with Harry.

0:46:25.000 --> 0:46:27.239
<v Speaker 3>He's just got to go out there and be a

0:46:27.320 --> 0:46:28.120
<v Speaker 3>real person.

0:46:28.160 --> 0:46:32.680
<v Speaker 2>You know, do you agree with this comparison, because Tiger,

0:46:32.800 --> 0:46:37.040
<v Speaker 2>whatever his antics were in his personal life, he did

0:46:37.160 --> 0:46:41.680
<v Speaker 2>achieve extraordinary success in his profession. I'm not sure what

0:46:41.920 --> 0:46:45.719
<v Speaker 2>Prince Harry has done other than trash his family and

0:46:45.800 --> 0:46:48.239
<v Speaker 2>write about his Todcha endlessly.

0:46:49.640 --> 0:46:52.040
<v Speaker 13>Yeah, I mean, what an insult to Tiger was. He

0:46:52.160 --> 0:46:54.400
<v Speaker 13>is a self made man and one of the greatest

0:46:54.480 --> 0:46:58.440
<v Speaker 13>golfers of all time. Ever, He's won fifteen major championships,

0:46:58.440 --> 0:47:02.640
<v Speaker 13>has eighty two PG Tour wins, and had a tremendous

0:47:02.680 --> 0:47:06.600
<v Speaker 13>impact on golf, increasing its popularity in pop culture. He

0:47:06.640 --> 0:47:10.279
<v Speaker 13>inspired a new generation of golfers, Harry inspires a new

0:47:10.360 --> 0:47:15.040
<v Speaker 13>generation of mowners, and Harry's awards are paid to play.

0:47:15.200 --> 0:47:19.360
<v Speaker 13>Tiger Woods is out there with that discipline and that hustle.

0:47:20.280 --> 0:47:22.520
<v Speaker 13>He wants to be the best. So I think it's

0:47:22.560 --> 0:47:25.279
<v Speaker 13>a real insult to Tiger Woods to compare him to

0:47:25.320 --> 0:47:25.920
<v Speaker 13>Prince Harry.

0:47:28.320 --> 0:47:31.960
<v Speaker 3>Now, this is fascinating stuff. Robert F. Kennedy Junior has

0:47:32.040 --> 0:47:32.560
<v Speaker 3>revealed he.

0:47:32.520 --> 0:47:37.920
<v Speaker 2>Originally wasn't interested in suspending his campaign for president and

0:47:38.120 --> 0:47:42.120
<v Speaker 2>endorsing Donald Trump, but his wife, Cheryl was the one

0:47:42.120 --> 0:47:43.840
<v Speaker 2>who turned him around.

0:47:44.600 --> 0:47:47.240
<v Speaker 7>He said, you know, would you be interested in talking

0:47:47.280 --> 0:47:51.880
<v Speaker 7>with that Trump, with President Trump? And I said, I

0:47:51.920 --> 0:47:54.719
<v Speaker 7>don't think so. And then and part of this was

0:47:54.760 --> 0:47:57.200
<v Speaker 7>I just thought it was an on start it with Cheryl,

0:47:58.239 --> 0:48:04.160
<v Speaker 7>and I called Cheryl up. She said to me, you

0:48:04.200 --> 0:48:09.040
<v Speaker 7>should hear them out. And I immediately called Galla, I taxit,

0:48:09.120 --> 0:48:10.960
<v Speaker 7>Callie back and said, I'm interested.

0:48:11.480 --> 0:48:14.640
<v Speaker 3>Well, she didn't tell him. She just said hear them out.

0:48:14.760 --> 0:48:19.120
<v Speaker 2>But I think that's in itself interesting revelation. But even

0:48:19.200 --> 0:48:24.840
<v Speaker 2>before that, she was getting absolutely blasted by the usual

0:48:25.000 --> 0:48:27.720
<v Speaker 2>suspects that the people who tell you to respect women

0:48:28.280 --> 0:48:31.799
<v Speaker 2>were slamming him for a decision her husband has made.

0:48:31.800 --> 0:48:35.640
<v Speaker 2>Of course, Cheryl is as an actress Hollywood through and through,

0:48:36.440 --> 0:48:40.120
<v Speaker 2>and some of these attacks are disgusting. Kinsy, I'll show

0:48:40.160 --> 0:48:44.840
<v Speaker 2>you one from Variety says that actor Bradley Whitford slammed

0:48:44.920 --> 0:48:48.160
<v Speaker 2>Cheryl Hines for not speaking out against her husband Rfgate

0:48:48.320 --> 0:48:51.719
<v Speaker 2>Junior after he endorsed Donald Trump for president. And this

0:48:51.760 --> 0:48:54.520
<v Speaker 2>is a direct quote way to stay silent while your

0:48:54.600 --> 0:48:58.759
<v Speaker 2>lunatic husband throws his support behind the adjudicated rapist to

0:48:59.160 --> 0:49:03.360
<v Speaker 2>brags about stripping women of their fundamental rights. Gutsy, great

0:49:03.440 --> 0:49:06.640
<v Speaker 2>example for the kids' profile and courage. I mean, who

0:49:06.760 --> 0:49:11.320
<v Speaker 2>is this and has been? It is absolutely appalling Kinsey, We've.

0:49:11.239 --> 0:49:11.960
<v Speaker 3>Run out of time.

0:49:12.000 --> 0:49:14.360
<v Speaker 2>I'll speak to you later in the week and that's

0:49:14.480 --> 0:49:15.160
<v Speaker 2>it from me.

0:49:15.360 --> 0:49:16.600
<v Speaker 3>Up next is Newsnight.

0:49:16.640 --> 0:49:19.759
<v Speaker 2>I'll see you at eleven tomorrow and Douglas Murray and

0:49:20.040 --> 0:49:21.759
<v Speaker 2>Dad Sad will be joining me.

0:49:21.880 --> 0:49:22.279
<v Speaker 3>Good Night,
