WEBVTT - Paul Murray Live | 25 July 0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:05.160 From the Skyinging Center. This is Paul Burray Live. 0:00:06.840 --> 0:00:08.959 What a Thursday night I've got for you on the Telly. 0:00:09.720 --> 0:00:11.479 I stand by everything I said this morning. 0:00:11.800 --> 0:00:15.440 When I watched the Joe Biden speech live, it was pathetic. 0:00:16.280 --> 0:00:18.279 He was lost like he was in the debate. He 0:00:18.360 --> 0:00:20.200 was so weird. It was weird. We'll talk about it 0:00:20.200 --> 0:00:20.680 in a second. 0:00:21.120 --> 0:00:23.640 Obviously, go Australia when it comes to the Olympic Games, 0:00:24.360 --> 0:00:26.960 I of course plea that while all of those live 0:00:27.000 --> 0:00:29.480 events are on, please make sure that you watch the show, 0:00:29.520 --> 0:00:31.480 either live or on demand, or get the podcast, because 0:00:31.520 --> 0:00:33.599 the news rolls on regardless of what's happening. And wait 0:00:33.640 --> 0:00:35.680 till I tell you what the Queensland government is now going. 0:00:35.600 --> 0:00:38.080 To allow at school is this year. 0:00:39.040 --> 0:00:41.840 This will frighten anyone with kids of that particular rage 0:00:41.960 --> 0:00:45.879 or grandkids. But obviously all of us are heading in 0:00:45.920 --> 0:00:48.840 one direction. Some of us will get it there sooner 0:00:48.840 --> 0:00:50.800 than others. But it is of course some form of 0:00:50.840 --> 0:00:55.160 aged care. Now Australia has a system. We try to 0:00:55.160 --> 0:00:56.640 stay in their house for as long as possible, but 0:00:56.680 --> 0:01:01.120 then sometimes we have to go to somewhere else to be. 0:01:01.080 --> 0:01:04.640 Taken care of. This is a very serious. 0:01:04.560 --> 0:01:07.160 Important thing, because we all know somebody who's gone through it, 0:01:07.240 --> 0:01:08.880 is going through it, is about to go through it, 0:01:08.959 --> 0:01:12.319 or it might be us ourselves. And obviously we've had 0:01:12.360 --> 0:01:15.280 things like an Agecare World Commission, which you've seen so 0:01:15.440 --> 0:01:18.240 many terrible stories about the way that people are treated 0:01:18.680 --> 0:01:21.360 in these organizations. Now, of course, I should say before 0:01:21.400 --> 0:01:24.000 we get too deep into this, many, if not all, 0:01:24.120 --> 0:01:26.479 of the people who actually are there, face to face, 0:01:27.040 --> 0:01:29.920 the nurses, the care as, all of those people, they 0:01:30.000 --> 0:01:32.880 are all in and they love the people that we love, okay, 0:01:33.360 --> 0:01:35.840 but sometimes the companies that are in charge of them, well, 0:01:35.920 --> 0:01:38.280 they don't seem to share the love that we do, 0:01:38.360 --> 0:01:40.920 and they also don't seem to share the sense of 0:01:41.000 --> 0:01:44.000 care that you would think is there when you have 0:01:44.040 --> 0:01:47.240 to sell your house to pay to go into an 0:01:47.280 --> 0:01:51.080 age care facility. It's something that was discussed at the 0:01:51.160 --> 0:01:54.040 last federal election, and this government claimed that they were 0:01:54.040 --> 0:01:57.000 going to change the world first with a nurse in 0:01:57.120 --> 0:02:00.080 every agecare facility in the country. 0:02:00.720 --> 0:02:03.920 Twenty four to seven nurses, twenty four to seven nurses 0:02:03.920 --> 0:02:07.800 twenty four seven four seven nurses, nurses twenty four seven, 0:02:07.840 --> 0:02:11.040 twenty four seven nurses twenty four to seven nurse in 0:02:11.080 --> 0:02:13.040 a nursing home twenty four to seven. 0:02:13.919 --> 0:02:16.800 Now that promise has not happened, and there are options 0:02:16.880 --> 0:02:20.120 where facilities have somehow been able to opt out of 0:02:20.120 --> 0:02:23.360 that system. So surprised that promise has not come to 0:02:23.400 --> 0:02:26.640 full effect. The other one is about the type of 0:02:26.680 --> 0:02:31.200 food that people have in aged care. Too many reports 0:02:31.200 --> 0:02:34.520 have told us for too long about the quality of 0:02:34.960 --> 0:02:38.920 nutritional the outright lack of it that many people in 0:02:38.960 --> 0:02:42.240 their final years are actually getting. 0:02:41.919 --> 0:02:43.320 From these institutions. 0:02:43.800 --> 0:02:46.560 So the now Prime Minister made a very obvious promise, 0:02:46.560 --> 0:02:48.959 and he even had a famous face to help him 0:02:49.680 --> 0:02:52.760 change the food in aged. 0:02:52.480 --> 0:02:56.600 Care, that the Maggie Bear Foundation would play a role 0:02:56.960 --> 0:03:01.160 in lifting up the standards in providing the quality of 0:03:01.400 --> 0:03:07.760 food which provides the nutritious content that older residents need 0:03:08.200 --> 0:03:09.200 and that they deserve. 0:03:09.280 --> 0:03:13.320 Frankly, well, I hope you're sitting down, because this is 0:03:13.320 --> 0:03:16.960 how the Australian reported a shocking number today. 0:03:18.120 --> 0:03:20.520 Four out of ten people. 0:03:20.240 --> 0:03:23.560 In nursing homes are malnourished, not because they are not 0:03:23.639 --> 0:03:25.960 choosing to eat, but because of the food that in 0:03:26.000 --> 0:03:29.240 part is put in front of them. The first comprehensive 0:03:29.280 --> 0:03:33.000 survey of nutrition in age care undertaken in Australia found 0:03:33.040 --> 0:03:37.640 that forty percent of residents were malnourished, including six percent 0:03:37.760 --> 0:03:43.920 who were severely malnourished. Severely malnourished means starving. The study, 0:03:43.920 --> 0:03:49.240 published in the journal Healthcare, said this was likely underplaying 0:03:49.600 --> 0:03:53.800 the extent of malnutrition, so these numbers are a best 0:03:53.840 --> 0:03:59.160 case scenario forty percent, given that it did not include 0:03:59.240 --> 0:04:02.960 nursing home rescus cidence with dementia because of issues of consent. 0:04:04.400 --> 0:04:09.200 Other studies have shown that almost sixty percent of dementia 0:04:09.240 --> 0:04:12.800 residents in aged care are at risk of malnutrition. 0:04:15.080 --> 0:04:17.919 This is a disgrace. 0:04:19.200 --> 0:04:24.360 I do not understand in the web of complicated rules 0:04:24.560 --> 0:04:28.279 around who gets to have an aged care facility, who 0:04:28.320 --> 0:04:32.359 gets to set one up, and the extraordinary fees and 0:04:32.560 --> 0:04:36.480 charges that mean that one of the reasons why Australians 0:04:36.520 --> 0:04:38.359 want to buy a home is that one day they 0:04:38.360 --> 0:04:41.039 will be able to sell the home to pay for 0:04:41.600 --> 0:04:44.919 things like aged care. You work your whole life to 0:04:44.960 --> 0:04:46.880 pay the house off and then you cash in the 0:04:46.920 --> 0:04:49.800 house to make sure you're as comforted and cared for 0:04:49.800 --> 0:04:53.599 for as long as possible. But to see that there 0:04:53.640 --> 0:04:58.599 are forty percent of people who are in aged care 0:04:59.120 --> 0:05:04.160 tonight and that's the low number that they are malnourished 0:05:05.640 --> 0:05:09.839 or in some cases, depending on how severe mental conditions 0:05:09.880 --> 0:05:13.320 may well end up being, it could be way worse 0:05:13.360 --> 0:05:18.200 than that. This is a disgrace. It is a disgrace 0:05:19.120 --> 0:05:21.960 that this was not the lead news story today. It 0:05:22.040 --> 0:05:23.560 is a disgrace that it will not be on a 0:05:23.600 --> 0:05:27.640 front page anywhere tomorrow. It is a disgrace that the 0:05:27.640 --> 0:05:30.080 Prime Minister is able to give a press conference today 0:05:30.120 --> 0:05:31.360 and nobody asks about it. 0:05:31.360 --> 0:05:32.719 It is a disgrace. 0:05:33.800 --> 0:05:36.080 That when the Prime Minister plans to reshuffle, there will 0:05:36.080 --> 0:05:40.120 be no conversation about changing the age care minister. This 0:05:40.279 --> 0:05:44.400 is not acceptable now. I don't care what numbers the 0:05:44.400 --> 0:05:46.080 government will put out to say, well, this is slightly 0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:47.039 better than it used to be. 0:05:47.160 --> 0:05:54.840 It's unacceptable, it's not on it's not okay. It's despicable. Now. 0:05:54.839 --> 0:05:57.159 If people choose not to eat the meal in front 0:05:57.200 --> 0:06:01.039 of them, that's their right. But if the meal in 0:06:01.080 --> 0:06:04.000 front of them is not good enough to give them 0:06:04.040 --> 0:06:08.240 the nutrients to be able to stay alive or to 0:06:08.320 --> 0:06:10.920 have a better quality of life, while you can have 0:06:11.279 --> 0:06:16.919 that quality of life, this is a red line. 0:06:16.960 --> 0:06:19.600 This is an absolute scandal. 0:06:21.360 --> 0:06:25.360 I do not understand how we do not have a 0:06:25.400 --> 0:06:29.200 system that inspects these homes that they are put on 0:06:29.240 --> 0:06:33.200 the shortest leash possible, that if their people inside them 0:06:33.240 --> 0:06:37.479 are malnourished, that they are able to continue on with 0:06:37.560 --> 0:06:38.320 their businesses. 0:06:39.160 --> 0:06:40.960 It is not acceptable. 0:06:42.120 --> 0:06:48.320 The organizations must be fined, The organizations must be shut down. 0:06:50.240 --> 0:06:50.400 Now. 0:06:50.440 --> 0:06:53.160 There is an awful lot of money in aged care, 0:06:53.320 --> 0:06:55.839 which means there will always be somebody else that will open. 0:06:55.720 --> 0:07:01.920 Up a new facility. But this is not accept now. 0:07:01.920 --> 0:07:06.240 We in this country are generous with the tax that 0:07:06.279 --> 0:07:09.320 we pay to our government because we know that there 0:07:09.360 --> 0:07:11.920 are people that are less fortunate than us. That's why 0:07:11.920 --> 0:07:14.440 we have a thing called the social safety net. And 0:07:14.520 --> 0:07:16.840 it doesn't matter where you sit on the spectrum from 0:07:16.920 --> 0:07:20.320 the right to the left or anywhere else in between. 0:07:21.320 --> 0:07:22.560 We all believe that when. 0:07:22.400 --> 0:07:26.360 Somebody is in the darkest days of their life, that 0:07:26.400 --> 0:07:30.120 something should be able to help them to get back 0:07:30.240 --> 0:07:32.880 into the system, to be able to go and work 0:07:33.120 --> 0:07:37.120 and provide for themselves and for their families. When it 0:07:37.160 --> 0:07:40.520 comes to things like disabilities that sometimes mean that the 0:07:40.560 --> 0:07:42.640 type of work you can do is limited. We are 0:07:42.680 --> 0:07:47.520 completely okay with a system where substantial amounts of federal 0:07:47.600 --> 0:07:50.520 funding go to make sure that that person has a 0:07:50.560 --> 0:07:55.320 quality of life. As a taxpayer, I have no problem 0:07:56.240 --> 0:07:59.720 with state or federal government money being spent in the 0:07:59.760 --> 0:08:03.600 age care facilities to make sure that the people in 0:08:03.640 --> 0:08:06.280 them are taken care of. And if we need to 0:08:06.320 --> 0:08:08.520 double the amount of money to make sure that the 0:08:08.640 --> 0:08:13.000 food is up to standard, fine by me. And let's 0:08:13.000 --> 0:08:17.120 not pretend that this government doesn't have the money to 0:08:17.200 --> 0:08:22.520 fix this problem tomorrow, because of course, as we've shown you, 0:08:23.360 --> 0:08:27.640 the Prime Minister is going to spend four hundred million dollars, 0:08:27.960 --> 0:08:31.880 in fact, four hundred and fifty million dollars on not one, 0:08:31.920 --> 0:08:35.760 but two brand new planes for himself and his mate, 0:08:35.800 --> 0:08:38.600 the Governor General. Oh but those were ordered by the 0:08:38.600 --> 0:08:41.120 previous government. Well, they weren't canceled by this one. That's 0:08:41.120 --> 0:08:43.400 what they spent four hundred and fifty on. Let me 0:08:43.440 --> 0:08:46.120 get you to close to a billion. There was a referendum. 0:08:46.160 --> 0:08:48.920 It cost how much four hundred and fifty million dollars? 0:08:48.920 --> 0:08:51.320 All right, Now we're at nine hundred million dollars that 0:08:51.400 --> 0:08:55.200 could be spent right now to make sure that the 0:08:55.240 --> 0:08:57.640 forty percent of people who are malnourished in age care 0:08:57.760 --> 0:08:59.160 will not be so. 0:08:59.080 --> 0:08:59.760 Into the future. 0:09:01.440 --> 0:09:03.760 The government is going to spend six hundred million dollars 0:09:03.840 --> 0:09:05.800 helping to set up a rugby league team in Papua 0:09:05.840 --> 0:09:08.400 New Guinea and on top of all of that, they're 0:09:08.480 --> 0:09:11.120 future made in Australia plans all the rest of it. 0:09:11.120 --> 0:09:12.000 That's twenty two and a. 0:09:11.920 --> 0:09:15.720 Bit billion dollars which is swirling around and a lot 0:09:15.720 --> 0:09:17.560 of people are clipping the ticket along the way. My 0:09:17.640 --> 0:09:21.800 point is this, not every single dollar that the government 0:09:21.840 --> 0:09:23.640 gets can be spent on the one thing that we 0:09:23.640 --> 0:09:24.920 would all love it to be spent on. 0:09:25.240 --> 0:09:28.880 So yes, it must be spread. But in the same 0:09:28.920 --> 0:09:29.319 way that. 0:09:29.280 --> 0:09:33.640 They can put off budget three hundred b four billion 0:09:33.679 --> 0:09:36.200 dollars for the submarines, which are important for us to 0:09:36.240 --> 0:09:39.000 be there when it comes to ucas, perhaps off budget 0:09:39.559 --> 0:09:41.439 is where they can put the money so they don't. 0:09:41.240 --> 0:09:43.959 Have to worry about it affecting the surplus. It's all 0:09:44.000 --> 0:09:45.200 borrowed money anyway. 0:09:46.240 --> 0:09:49.440 To make sure that the people who have made this 0:09:49.559 --> 0:09:53.880 country what it is, and I mean that the people 0:09:53.880 --> 0:09:56.120 who have made this country what it is, and you're 0:09:56.120 --> 0:09:58.959 going to interpret that in any way, shape or form. 0:09:59.480 --> 0:10:01.720 The people who were born here, the people who've come here, 0:10:01.880 --> 0:10:04.160 the people who have worked their backsides off, the people 0:10:04.160 --> 0:10:06.680 who have been parents, the people who have cared for 0:10:06.760 --> 0:10:09.719 other people's children, the people who have worked in the 0:10:09.760 --> 0:10:14.080 emergency services, the people who may well themselves at another 0:10:14.120 --> 0:10:15.040 point in time. 0:10:14.960 --> 0:10:17.320 Been nurses in things like age care facilities. 0:10:17.480 --> 0:10:21.680 When they go into an age care facility, the food's 0:10:21.679 --> 0:10:22.760 got to be up to stand it. 0:10:23.640 --> 0:10:25.520 And it's all well and good for the Prime Minister to. 0:10:25.600 --> 0:10:27.840 Stand there again and say, well, we've got you know, 0:10:27.880 --> 0:10:30.000 this famous chef and her foundation and they're going to 0:10:30.000 --> 0:10:32.640 improve it. Well, guess what he's been around for two 0:10:32.720 --> 0:10:37.360 years and it's not good enough. What is equally not 0:10:37.400 --> 0:10:39.800 good enough is this story in a day of big 0:10:39.880 --> 0:10:44.320 news that this is probably the first time you're hearing 0:10:44.360 --> 0:10:52.520 about it. Every family in Australia, regardless of your political affiliation, 0:10:52.679 --> 0:10:57.720 has an interest in this system being fixed, doing better. 0:11:00.040 --> 0:11:05.760 Scandal that four out of ten people in aged care 0:11:06.679 --> 0:11:07.600 are malnourished. 0:11:07.920 --> 0:11:08.920 It's a disgrace. 0:11:10.160 --> 0:11:13.680 I call on the opposition to make this the political 0:11:13.720 --> 0:11:15.840 issue that it should be. I call on the government 0:11:16.080 --> 0:11:18.760 to respond to it as fast as possible, and I 0:11:18.840 --> 0:11:21.600 call on the people with access to a television camera 0:11:21.840 --> 0:11:24.400 a microphone or a computer to write an. 0:11:24.360 --> 0:11:26.280 Article to talk about it. 0:11:29.920 --> 0:11:31.880 But of course today was a day where the Prime 0:11:31.880 --> 0:11:35.600 Minister wasn't asked about this. Instead he was shuffling deadwood 0:11:35.640 --> 0:11:39.840 out the door. Linda Burnie, Brendan O'Connor, they're gone. New 0:11:39.880 --> 0:11:44.600 brooms will of course replace them in the Parliament. We 0:11:44.800 --> 0:11:49.400 previewed this last night. But what about the stones on 0:11:49.440 --> 0:11:55.680 the Prime Minister, This bloke who while talking about a 0:11:55.800 --> 0:11:58.480 day should be about other people's careers. He's got to 0:11:58.480 --> 0:12:01.679 pat himself on the back for now. Remember this is 0:12:01.679 --> 0:12:04.360 a bloke who will not sack a minister. Why because 0:12:04.360 --> 0:12:06.760 he wanted to be able to say this, even if, 0:12:06.800 --> 0:12:12.000 like Katie Gallaher they lie, or like Claire O'Neal or 0:12:12.000 --> 0:12:16.680 Andrew Giles they are deeply incompetent, all of them stay 0:12:17.360 --> 0:12:18.319 so he can say this. 0:12:19.760 --> 0:12:23.959 My government has always been focused on tackling the challenges 0:12:24.000 --> 0:12:26.720 of the here and now in a way that builds 0:12:26.760 --> 0:12:30.199 for the long term, helping people with cost of living 0:12:30.280 --> 0:12:35.160 pressures while investing in making our future here in Australia. 0:12:35.200 --> 0:12:37.760 As the theme of the last budget, but it's a 0:12:37.880 --> 0:12:41.000 theme of the last two and a bit years as well. 0:12:42.040 --> 0:12:46.080 We do this as a united team, a true cabinet government. 0:12:48.360 --> 0:12:51.920 What garbage, what absolute garbage. 0:12:53.320 --> 0:12:56.240 People are frightened on so many different issues. You know, 0:12:56.760 --> 0:12:58.439 we haven't had the sacond minister for two and a 0:12:58.480 --> 0:13:01.080 half years. Even if they're caught lying to the Parliament 0:13:01.120 --> 0:13:05.280 like Katie Gallaher, even if they deliberately take decisions that 0:13:05.360 --> 0:13:10.120 threaten community safety, that result in people being amongst the 0:13:10.120 --> 0:13:12.480 community who end up being accused of horrific crimes like 0:13:12.480 --> 0:13:15.120 the bashing that happened to Western Australia. Oh you forget it, 0:13:16.040 --> 0:13:20.559 We're amazing. And of course the media, yes, sir. 0:13:20.960 --> 0:13:24.720 Write it all down again. 0:13:24.800 --> 0:13:27.000 I'm no psychologists, but I've got to say I can 0:13:27.040 --> 0:13:30.680 read political body language. I'm not entirely sure Linda Bernie 0:13:30.679 --> 0:13:33.559 was actually planning on quitting anytime soon. I know there 0:13:33.559 --> 0:13:36.120 was some suggestion, oh she might and she might become 0:13:36.120 --> 0:13:39.400 the Governor General, but she didn't quite look like a 0:13:39.400 --> 0:13:41.720 person today who was sort of ready for the announcement. 0:13:42.160 --> 0:13:43.040 Now, of course, all of the. 0:13:42.960 --> 0:13:45.880 Reason why this is taking place is because they want 0:13:45.880 --> 0:13:47.720 the opportunity to push them people out of the way, 0:13:47.960 --> 0:13:49.920 to change some things when it comes to the ministry 0:13:49.920 --> 0:13:52.120 and when it comes to her as Indigenous Affairs Minister. 0:13:52.440 --> 0:13:54.360 Well, we know what heir record has been. 0:13:55.480 --> 0:13:57.680 But those who are the hardcore viewers of this program 0:13:57.840 --> 0:13:59.679 know that I always said Linda Burney would be a 0:13:59.720 --> 0:14:02.600 bus way back when I was a reporter. And then 0:14:02.640 --> 0:14:04.640 he said wils Parlam and I saw her performance. Then 0:14:05.160 --> 0:14:08.240 I knew what was coming and it exactly came to be. Well, 0:14:08.280 --> 0:14:12.040 here she is going out the side door. People might 0:14:12.160 --> 0:14:16.520 think it is a defeat, there are some very good 0:14:16.559 --> 0:14:18.760 things that came out of the referendum. 0:14:19.360 --> 0:14:20.240 I am proud of. 0:14:20.200 --> 0:14:23.720 The Prime Minister and his leadership. I'm proud of First 0:14:23.800 --> 0:14:26.760 Nations people, and I'm proud to have. 0:14:26.880 --> 0:14:27.640 Been part of it. 0:14:29.400 --> 0:14:32.920 Sixty percent of the country disagreed with you. Oh no, 0:14:33.320 --> 0:14:34.960 it's not a loss like. 0:14:34.880 --> 0:14:37.640 This upside down garbage world that these people live in. 0:14:37.840 --> 0:14:40.360 And then they turn around and say that you're the 0:14:40.360 --> 0:14:43.640 peddler of misinformation. You're the one who doesn't tell the truth. 0:14:43.640 --> 0:14:46.600 You're the one who's just making stuff up. It was 0:14:46.640 --> 0:14:51.200 a win, please. They turned sixty forty yes into sixty 0:14:51.240 --> 0:14:54.480 forty no. They made the decision to send it through 0:14:54.480 --> 0:14:56.800 to the referendum instead of just putting it in place 0:14:56.840 --> 0:14:59.360 in their first act as a government and then yes, 0:14:59.360 --> 0:15:01.040 it wouldn't have been in the constitution, but we'd be 0:15:01.080 --> 0:15:02.600 able to see for a few years whether it worked 0:15:02.680 --> 0:15:04.920 or not. Then we could have the debate. I don't know, 0:15:04.960 --> 0:15:09.960 but they knew better. Seriously, Now, of course, the people 0:15:10.000 --> 0:15:13.360 who should be moved on in the upcoming reshuffle, I 0:15:13.440 --> 0:15:16.080 repeat again clueless Clare O'Neill. 0:15:17.200 --> 0:15:19.320 And Andrew Giles. They both should go. But will they 0:15:19.360 --> 0:15:21.200 go or not? Well we'll all find out together. 0:15:21.840 --> 0:15:24.360 But of course the Prime Minister, even when he's losing, 0:15:25.480 --> 0:15:28.240 still is a little bit like that night in the 0:15:28.280 --> 0:15:33.520 Holy Grail where he's turning around and sorry, meeting a 0:15:33.520 --> 0:15:35.800 life I think it was, wasn't it. Yeah, anyway one 0:15:35.800 --> 0:15:38.440 of the monty pythons. Doesn't matter how many of his 0:15:38.520 --> 0:15:40.240 limbs get cut off, he is still doing amazing. 0:15:40.240 --> 0:15:41.720 It was the Holy Grail. Good thank you. 0:15:42.560 --> 0:15:45.640 Here's what the opposition thinks about this absurd situation that 0:15:45.640 --> 0:15:47.480 we're going to get right now, where people who are 0:15:47.480 --> 0:15:49.880 bad at their job, like say an age care minister 0:15:49.920 --> 0:15:51.720 where forty percent of the people that are in age 0:15:51.760 --> 0:15:54.400 care are suffering from malnutrition, will probably. 0:15:54.120 --> 0:15:54.720 Keep their job. 0:15:55.360 --> 0:15:57.920 Losers like those two they might get moved to the side. 0:15:57.960 --> 0:16:00.120 But they'll be winners anyway. 0:16:01.240 --> 0:16:03.160 But I still can't believe that a Prime Minister of 0:16:03.200 --> 0:16:05.600 this country can walk up to a microphone and say 0:16:05.640 --> 0:16:07.360 it's not up to them who goes into the ministry. 0:16:07.360 --> 0:16:10.520 It will be decided by factions and union bosses. It's 0:16:10.600 --> 0:16:14.840 just incredible. The Prime Minister of Australia can't decide who's 0:16:14.880 --> 0:16:17.320 going to be in his own ministry. And in terms 0:16:17.360 --> 0:16:18.520 of who should be part of it, well, I've had 0:16:18.520 --> 0:16:18.840 an option. 0:16:18.920 --> 0:16:19.720 I'd put them all. 0:16:20.000 --> 0:16:21.760 I kept it into the lot, I'd put into the 0:16:21.800 --> 0:16:22.720 College government. 0:16:22.960 --> 0:16:25.560 Well but I'll tell you what if Andrew jil survives, 0:16:26.480 --> 0:16:27.640 that is that is a. 0:16:27.600 --> 0:16:32.000 Miracle because these people, remember they're in the bubble, inside 0:16:32.040 --> 0:16:34.040 the bubble, inside the bubble, inside the bubble police, by 0:16:34.080 --> 0:16:34.880 the media bubble. 0:16:34.960 --> 0:16:36.880 That you get how it works. It's all just a 0:16:36.920 --> 0:16:37.560 giant club. 0:16:39.560 --> 0:16:41.760 And the Prime Minister, of course, along with every other MP, 0:16:42.080 --> 0:16:45.440 got to pay rise their third since the Labor Party 0:16:45.480 --> 0:16:48.200 came to power. You notice that even the opposition didn't 0:16:48.200 --> 0:16:49.840 really fight this one. They don't say it because they 0:16:49.920 --> 0:16:52.720 get the extra money too. Right, PM now on six 0:16:52.760 --> 0:16:54.960 hundred thousand dollars. Oh but he really cares about cost 0:16:54.960 --> 0:16:59.160 of living. He's the one changing everybody's life. But pick 0:16:59.160 --> 0:17:01.080 it in to see every to see here that everything 0:17:01.080 --> 0:17:03.200 costs more. We talk about it all the time, and 0:17:03.240 --> 0:17:06.600 cost of living. There's a couple of wild, wild stories 0:17:06.600 --> 0:17:08.720 in the past couple of days. The Australians are having 0:17:08.760 --> 0:17:12.040 fewer children, that of course ends up having greater consequences 0:17:12.080 --> 0:17:15.320 for the way that everything gets funded because you want 0:17:15.359 --> 0:17:18.080 more people to pay for the Ponzi scheme. That is 0:17:18.160 --> 0:17:20.760 at times the way the Australian government works, which means 0:17:20.760 --> 0:17:22.640 if we don't have enough kids, you bring in more immigration. 0:17:22.680 --> 0:17:25.000 Great, they're over eighteen and the hopefully vote for you. 0:17:25.000 --> 0:17:26.439 You don't have to even pay for kids to go 0:17:26.440 --> 0:17:27.960 to school. But apparently one of the reasons they're not 0:17:28.000 --> 0:17:30.919 doing it is because of cost of living. And then, 0:17:30.960 --> 0:17:33.560 forgive me to all of the animal lovers watching right now, 0:17:33.680 --> 0:17:35.159 but it's a point that I'll just quickly make and 0:17:35.200 --> 0:17:37.440 then move on, which is that we hear a story 0:17:37.480 --> 0:17:39.760 today that people are now so concerned about cost of 0:17:39.800 --> 0:17:42.959 living that when it comes to vet bills, they are 0:17:43.240 --> 0:17:45.600 not making the choices to keep some of the animals 0:17:45.640 --> 0:17:49.000 alive because it's so damn expensive, and I get it, 0:17:49.040 --> 0:17:51.800 talking about animals is sort of no go zone for people. 0:17:51.880 --> 0:17:54.639 But that is an extraordinary thing that we're reading about 0:17:54.680 --> 0:17:58.640 right now. And then there's another piece of information which 0:17:58.680 --> 0:18:01.440 is going to make everything worse. But again you probably 0:18:01.440 --> 0:18:04.120 didn't hear about it today because you know, not as 0:18:04.119 --> 0:18:06.600 important as the other stuff that we focus on in 0:18:06.640 --> 0:18:10.240 the media most of the time. The Australian dollar is 0:18:10.280 --> 0:18:12.840 not doing well at the moment. Now, yes, that's a 0:18:12.880 --> 0:18:14.800 punish for people that are planning to go overseas or 0:18:14.840 --> 0:18:17.399 anyone who's currently rolling around Paris, you know, wanting to 0:18:17.440 --> 0:18:19.520 buy things before they come home. But there's something a 0:18:19.560 --> 0:18:23.800 little more consequential here about the Australian dollar starting to 0:18:23.840 --> 0:18:27.480 go down. It'll make everything that we import into the country, 0:18:27.840 --> 0:18:33.480 that we sell in a shop more expensive because it 0:18:33.680 --> 0:18:36.600 still costs ten dollars to buy that thing that's made 0:18:36.640 --> 0:18:41.480 in China. But the Australian dollar is not worth one 0:18:41.760 --> 0:18:45.840 US dollar really ever is. But whenever it goes lower 0:18:45.840 --> 0:18:48.639 and lower and lower, it means the more Australian dollars 0:18:48.640 --> 0:18:51.400 you need to match the ten dollars item that needs 0:18:51.400 --> 0:18:52.679 to be purchased from overseas. 0:18:53.640 --> 0:18:55.520 In fact, have a look at the Australian dollar. 0:18:55.560 --> 0:18:57.400 Nothing to see here. This government's amazing when it comes 0:18:57.440 --> 0:19:01.200 to economic management. In March twenty two it was seventy 0:19:01.200 --> 0:19:03.840 four US cents. It's our sixty five US cents. Oh, 0:19:03.840 --> 0:19:04.640 it's only ten cents. 0:19:04.680 --> 0:19:05.159 Who cares for? 0:19:06.400 --> 0:19:12.960 Think about what ten percent difference in the extra amount 0:19:13.000 --> 0:19:15.560 of money that people need to pay on the global 0:19:15.600 --> 0:19:17.640 market to end up buying the things that they bring 0:19:17.720 --> 0:19:20.000 into the country to sell in the country, which means 0:19:20.320 --> 0:19:22.760 if it costs some more to bring things into the country, 0:19:23.000 --> 0:19:24.960 it costs you more money to buy them. 0:19:25.600 --> 0:19:26.920 If it costs you more. 0:19:26.720 --> 0:19:32.720 Money to buy them, guess what happens inflation, Because there's 0:19:32.840 --> 0:19:35.080 all of the little things in the basket of goods 0:19:35.119 --> 0:19:38.040 that will eventually end up getting caught up in the 0:19:38.080 --> 0:19:40.120 stuff that we not just make here, but the stuff 0:19:40.160 --> 0:19:43.440 that we import from overseas, and that of course means 0:19:43.520 --> 0:19:44.480 a greater chance. 0:19:44.240 --> 0:19:45.320 Of interest rate rises. 0:19:46.320 --> 0:19:48.680 As we've told you, when it comes to interest rate rises, 0:19:48.920 --> 0:19:52.760 that affects two thirds of the country, a third that's 0:19:52.760 --> 0:19:55.200 trying to pay off its house and the people who 0:19:55.280 --> 0:19:57.960 are renting where presumably somebody is trying to pay off 0:19:57.960 --> 0:19:58.919 that house as well. 0:19:59.119 --> 0:20:00.600 I get it. It's good for people who. 0:20:00.520 --> 0:20:03.320 Got termed deposits, and I understand the yin and yang 0:20:03.359 --> 0:20:06.280 of it, but the reality is that I've shown you 0:20:06.320 --> 0:20:11.080 this week eight hundred thousand further homes will be put 0:20:11.080 --> 0:20:14.399 into mortgage stress, meaning there is more money that is 0:20:14.440 --> 0:20:19.600 going to paying for your house than you can actually afford. 0:20:20.320 --> 0:20:21.960 This is on top of the minions that are already 0:20:21.960 --> 0:20:26.280 in that situation. Ob at the government, we haven't sacked 0:20:26.280 --> 0:20:32.760 any ministers, please now again, I wanted to get all 0:20:32.800 --> 0:20:34.080 that out of the way before I talked about the 0:20:34.119 --> 0:20:36.920 other stuff that is the big global news today, which 0:20:37.000 --> 0:20:39.879 was that Joe Biden gave a speech from the Oval 0:20:39.880 --> 0:20:43.040 Office where he didn't really explain why he's not going 0:20:43.119 --> 0:20:45.960 to be going on as the president of the United 0:20:45.960 --> 0:20:48.840 States after January. 0:20:48.840 --> 0:20:49.600 Of next year. 0:20:49.800 --> 0:20:51.560 And forgive me for being cruel, but I know they 0:20:51.680 --> 0:20:54.240 sort of threw the bronzer on him, and it reminded 0:20:54.280 --> 0:20:57.080 me of when Jack Nicholson played The Joker, and when 0:20:57.119 --> 0:20:59.760 the Joker was wearing the Biden levels of makeup to 0:21:00.840 --> 0:21:04.240 that he wasn't the Joker. Once you see the comparison, 0:21:04.320 --> 0:21:07.000 you will not unsee it. Every time you see Biden 0:21:07.040 --> 0:21:09.600 from now on you will think of Jack Nicholson as 0:21:09.640 --> 0:21:11.320 the joker. But forgive me for then cruel. 0:21:12.119 --> 0:21:15.600 But I've got to say. 0:21:14.760 --> 0:21:19.800 The media's response to this speech ludicrous and this did 0:21:19.800 --> 0:21:20.199 you want to hear? 0:21:20.200 --> 0:21:20.320 Ald? 0:21:20.359 --> 0:21:22.439 They said, Biden gives the speech he never wanted to 0:21:22.480 --> 0:21:25.760 and does it with passion and grace. And then everyone 0:21:25.800 --> 0:21:27.760 who's of course been pushing him out the door is 0:21:27.800 --> 0:21:30.000 now turning around and feeling bad about it. So they're 0:21:30.000 --> 0:21:35.159 pretending everything he does is amazing, just taking. 0:21:34.920 --> 0:21:35.680 A step back. 0:21:35.840 --> 0:21:38.640 This was a speech for the history books, just as 0:21:38.680 --> 0:21:40.840 when LBJ announced he wasn't going to run. 0:21:41.000 --> 0:21:44.120 But this was selfless. This was selfless on a level. 0:21:44.160 --> 0:21:45.760 I think that's important in a way. 0:21:45.640 --> 0:21:48.040 That we talk about George Washington being selfless. 0:21:48.200 --> 0:21:52.520 He asked the question, this character still matter? Well, it destinate, destinate. 0:21:53.400 --> 0:21:56.120 The kid with a starter did good. He did good. 0:21:56.440 --> 0:21:59.320 That's a good man. He fell on his sword. 0:22:00.200 --> 0:22:03.800 Two weeks ago. The bloke was at NATO telling everyone 0:22:03.840 --> 0:22:04.520 he's not going to go. 0:22:05.000 --> 0:22:07.080 Two weeks ago he was saying that the Lord Almighty 0:22:07.160 --> 0:22:08.320 was the only one that could get him out of 0:22:08.359 --> 0:22:11.119 the way. The reality was the Democrats, We're definitely going 0:22:11.200 --> 0:22:14.760 to lose with you. So knives out, bang bang, push 0:22:14.840 --> 0:22:16.439 him out of the way. Oh but now that he 0:22:16.480 --> 0:22:18.359 gets to sort of frame the way he was pushed 0:22:18.359 --> 0:22:23.960 out of the way, he's historic because he's standing. Come on, now, 0:22:24.000 --> 0:22:26.280 we know this because we watch the news every single 0:22:26.400 --> 0:22:29.080 day and we know there's a huge number of people 0:22:29.080 --> 0:22:31.520 who don't really pay that much attention. Okay, fine, they 0:22:31.560 --> 0:22:34.000 can be spun, but we're not going to be bs two. 0:22:35.280 --> 0:22:39.960 This guy has deteriorated between it before our eyes. They 0:22:40.000 --> 0:22:41.800 tried to hide it. They lied about it. As I 0:22:41.840 --> 0:22:44.160 showed you earlier in the week when he fell up 0:22:44.200 --> 0:22:46.439 the stairs. That was in the fifty ninth day of 0:22:46.440 --> 0:22:51.320 his presidency. It wasn't even three months into it, barely two. 0:22:53.000 --> 0:22:54.760 So it was obvious from that point in time there 0:22:54.800 --> 0:22:56.480 was a problem. And we've watched the problem get worse 0:22:56.520 --> 0:22:58.560 all the way through. Oh no, but that's cheap fakes 0:22:58.600 --> 0:23:00.679 and those are lies, and that's it's not true, and 0:23:00.680 --> 0:23:04.440 that's right wing propaganda. And then of course they all 0:23:04.440 --> 0:23:08.480 noticed because the deboat, the debate exposed it. So then 0:23:08.560 --> 0:23:10.320 they turned around and rather than saying, oh, well, we're 0:23:10.359 --> 0:23:12.080 kind of you know, got a we made our bed, 0:23:12.119 --> 0:23:15.760 got a line and I don't know. We'll just see 0:23:15.880 --> 0:23:17.720 here's your options. You can go and be called a hero, 0:23:17.880 --> 0:23:20.000 or we'll use the twenty fifth Amendment. And that's the 0:23:20.040 --> 0:23:24.960 way you go anyway. Just like at the start of 0:23:25.000 --> 0:23:30.560 the debate, when you knew something's wrong, this was the 0:23:30.560 --> 0:23:34.199 start of his speech. Now, like anything on TV, and 0:23:34.200 --> 0:23:37.160 when you're on this side of the camera, it's five four, 0:23:37.640 --> 0:23:40.040 three to one, go. 0:23:43.680 --> 0:23:45.760 My follow Americans. 0:23:48.040 --> 0:23:49.960 Oh, that's a problem. 0:23:50.359 --> 0:23:52.119 If I started the show each and every night like that, 0:23:52.119 --> 0:23:54.920 you'd go, hang up, well, what's going on? Paul. Now, 0:23:54.960 --> 0:23:56.560 if they wanted to, they could have taped this, but 0:23:56.640 --> 0:23:59.199 they didn't. Instead, you know, the satellite delay. That's in 0:23:59.200 --> 0:24:02.200 his brain and he's still the president for the next 0:24:02.240 --> 0:24:08.119 six months. But of course, the way he was able 0:24:08.160 --> 0:24:11.359 to pretend that this was all his choice, all his 0:24:11.600 --> 0:24:14.520 decision was in this bit of the speech. 0:24:16.600 --> 0:24:21.359 I believe I reckon as president, my leadership in the world. 0:24:22.440 --> 0:24:27.240 I visioned for America's future. All merried it a second term, 0:24:27.480 --> 0:24:31.399 but nothing, nothing can come in the way of saving 0:24:31.400 --> 0:24:37.119 our democracy. That includes personal ambition. So I've decided the 0:24:37.119 --> 0:24:40.000 best way forward is the past, the torch for a 0:24:40.040 --> 0:24:40.640 new generation. 0:24:42.840 --> 0:24:47.240 I'm also might deserve a second term. But please that 0:24:47.280 --> 0:24:48.600 again is the guy who doesn't want to go. You 0:24:48.600 --> 0:24:51.840 can see that the fingernail marks on the resolute desk. 0:24:52.960 --> 0:24:55.080 But he's of course going to be called one for 0:24:55.119 --> 0:24:56.560 the ages. And I love that man. And what an 0:24:56.600 --> 0:25:02.879 incredible speech and poise and delivery and history. And then 0:25:02.920 --> 0:25:04.440 he just started telling lies. 0:25:06.720 --> 0:25:10.359 Border crossings are lower today than when the previous administration 0:25:10.480 --> 0:25:12.920 left office. 0:25:13.200 --> 0:25:18.320 That's not the point, mister president. The point is that 0:25:18.359 --> 0:25:25.560 since you became the president, ten million people have crossed 0:25:25.600 --> 0:25:29.800 into the country illegally. Those are the facts that Congress 0:25:29.920 --> 0:25:32.320 are putting before. It's not made up by me. Ten 0:25:33.359 --> 0:25:38.359 million people have illegally entered and are in the United 0:25:38.400 --> 0:25:41.320 States because of the way that Kamala Harris and Joe 0:25:41.320 --> 0:25:45.119 Biden have managed the border. And by the way, on 0:25:45.200 --> 0:25:48.439 all of that, there is a lot of garbage that 0:25:48.480 --> 0:25:51.560 apparently Kamala Harris wasn't really in charge of the border stuff. Okay, 0:25:51.800 --> 0:25:56.399 one last time, twenty twenty, here's the footage of the 0:25:56.560 --> 0:26:00.920 exact moment when the President says Kamala Harris is going 0:26:01.000 --> 0:26:02.760 to be the one who's going to be in charge 0:26:02.760 --> 0:26:04.520 of working out what's going on when it comes to 0:26:04.560 --> 0:26:07.840 the border. This was the reporting from the left wing 0:26:07.920 --> 0:26:12.160 Associated Press at the time. Their headline Biden taps VP 0:26:12.320 --> 0:26:16.159 Harris to lead response to border challenges. You read the 0:26:16.200 --> 0:26:20.840 text of that story. She was placed in charge of 0:26:21.200 --> 0:26:25.159 the border. But now suddenly because Kamala Harris is the 0:26:25.200 --> 0:26:29.400 new Oprah, she's president Beyonce, we now have to all 0:26:29.440 --> 0:26:32.120 pretend that theres nothing to see here. Jedo mindtrick meant 0:26:32.119 --> 0:26:35.359 in black very quick, mind wipe, mind wipe. And the 0:26:35.400 --> 0:26:37.320 media is now pretending on no, no, that was never actually 0:26:37.359 --> 0:26:40.399 her job, despite the fact we've have the footage and 0:26:40.480 --> 0:26:44.480 the announcements and the media reporting at the time that 0:26:44.560 --> 0:26:48.359 that was her job, and her failure has resulted in 0:26:48.520 --> 0:26:51.920 ten million people crossing the border into the United States, 0:26:52.040 --> 0:26:54.439 and she won't be able to escape that, regardless of 0:26:54.480 --> 0:26:57.720 how few questions she will actually get about it. 0:26:59.000 --> 0:27:01.720 But back to Joe, Sadly, he's still there for the 0:27:01.760 --> 0:27:03.120 next six months. Now. 0:27:03.200 --> 0:27:05.359 This is a blog who is the limest of lime ducks, 0:27:05.440 --> 0:27:10.639 Like even lime ducks think that this blog is a 0:27:10.680 --> 0:27:13.399 lime duck. I was going to say something else, but 0:27:13.440 --> 0:27:15.640 I want to keep him a job. This is what 0:27:15.720 --> 0:27:17.959 he said about his plan for the next six months. 0:27:19.440 --> 0:27:22.480 Over the next six months, I'll be focused on doing 0:27:22.520 --> 0:27:25.920 my job as president. That means I'll continue to lower 0:27:25.920 --> 0:27:31.040 costs for hard working families, grow our economy. I'll keep 0:27:31.040 --> 0:27:34.280 defending our personal freedoms, on our civil rights, from the 0:27:34.359 --> 0:27:37.960 right to vote to the right to choose. I'll keep 0:27:37.960 --> 0:27:41.560 calling out hating extremism. Make it clear there is no place, 0:27:41.640 --> 0:27:45.919 no place in America or political violence or any violence 0:27:46.160 --> 0:27:50.960 ever period. I'm going to keep keep speaking out to 0:27:51.000 --> 0:27:55.200 protect our kids from gun violence. Our planning from climate 0:27:55.240 --> 0:27:59.560 crisis is the existential threat, and i will keep fighting 0:27:59.640 --> 0:28:03.040 my from our cancer moonshot so we can end cancer 0:28:03.119 --> 0:28:06.720 as we know it. Because we can do it. I'm 0:28:06.760 --> 0:28:10.359 going to call for Supreme Court reform because this is 0:28:10.480 --> 0:28:13.879 critical to our democracy. Supreme Court reform. 0:28:14.640 --> 0:28:15.560 So I'm a lame duck. 0:28:16.119 --> 0:28:19.240 I don't have control of Parliament because the Republicans are 0:28:19.280 --> 0:28:22.040 the ones in charge downstairs and the Democrats are the 0:28:22.040 --> 0:28:24.960 ones in charge upstairs. But apparently in the next six 0:28:25.000 --> 0:28:28.600 months he will cure cancer, fix. 0:28:28.359 --> 0:28:29.119 The Middle East. 0:28:29.720 --> 0:28:33.280 He will also deal with America's gun problems. He's also 0:28:33.359 --> 0:28:34.520 going to rig the Supreme Court. 0:28:34.560 --> 0:28:35.760 All of that. Apparently he can. 0:28:35.680 --> 0:28:39.480 Do so this guy isn't just out to see. He's 0:28:39.520 --> 0:28:44.680 delusional and out to see. It's pathetic the performance. But 0:28:44.760 --> 0:28:46.840 because now we're all just being told by everyone that 0:28:47.040 --> 0:28:49.640 the history books will say Joe wasn't pushed, Joe walked 0:28:49.640 --> 0:28:53.440 away himself. We're watching the history being rewritten before our 0:28:53.520 --> 0:29:01.840 very eyes, and it's ridiculous. It was a terrible performance today. Now, 0:29:01.880 --> 0:29:03.840 as a human being to another human being, you don't 0:29:03.840 --> 0:29:05.600 want to see people being embarrassed. You don't want to 0:29:05.600 --> 0:29:07.720 see people fall apart. But on the behalf of the 0:29:07.760 --> 0:29:10.400 Western world, of which he is allegedly the most bat well, 0:29:10.400 --> 0:29:12.840 he is the most powerful person of we need him 0:29:12.840 --> 0:29:15.440 to be stronger. We need the American president to be stronger, 0:29:15.680 --> 0:29:19.760 staring down Russia, China, you name it, that blokes steering 0:29:19.800 --> 0:29:24.600 into space. Oh yeah, And one other little bit of 0:29:24.640 --> 0:29:28.120 detail here about all of those people who used. 0:29:27.960 --> 0:29:30.120 To say, of course, josephs Fit is a fiddle and 0:29:30.240 --> 0:29:31.000 sharpest attack. 0:29:31.760 --> 0:29:35.600 Remember when the special counsel that was investigating Biden keeping 0:29:35.600 --> 0:29:39.680 top secret documents bragging about them to the ghostwriter. 0:29:39.280 --> 0:29:40.000 Of his book. 0:29:41.960 --> 0:29:44.880 Well back then, of course, he was referred to as 0:29:44.880 --> 0:29:47.640 a sympathetic and well meaning elderly man and lefties all 0:29:47.640 --> 0:29:55.680 went absolutely crazy, how offensive, not acceptable? Well, people have 0:29:55.720 --> 0:29:58.600 wanted to see the full transcript as to exactly what 0:29:58.760 --> 0:30:01.440 happened in the interview that led to the conclusion by 0:30:01.440 --> 0:30:04.520 the special prosecutor or the Special Council. 0:30:05.440 --> 0:30:10.400 Well, guess what happened today? They found the documents. They 0:30:10.520 --> 0:30:13.360 fat magically after he's no longer going to be. 0:30:13.440 --> 0:30:17.200 A political problem for the Democrats, the Department of Justice 0:30:17.440 --> 0:30:22.320 magically found the transcripts of the interview that where the 0:30:22.320 --> 0:30:23.880 bloke ended up concluding. 0:30:23.520 --> 0:30:24.640 That he's out the lunch. 0:30:26.400 --> 0:30:29.320 The Justice Department has told a federal judge last Monday 0:30:29.680 --> 0:30:32.960 that it has located the transcripts of previously deny it 0:30:33.080 --> 0:30:36.160 previously denied having a president Joe Biden's talks with the 0:30:36.160 --> 0:30:39.800 biographer that planned that sorry played a role in the 0:30:39.800 --> 0:30:44.360 recent league can play a sorry completed criminal investigation. Hard 0:30:44.400 --> 0:30:47.080 to regard somebody else about cognitive climb when you can't read, 0:30:47.120 --> 0:30:49.240 but I don't know my glasses anyway, you get my point, 0:30:49.600 --> 0:30:52.400 As it's written by a national review. However, the Justice 0:30:52.400 --> 0:30:56.040 Department finds transcripts of biden interviews with a ghostwriter that it. 0:30:56.080 --> 0:31:00.360 Insisted it did not exist. Oh, stuffness here. 0:31:00.880 --> 0:31:02.760 It's not like what they had all that Ammo just 0:31:02.800 --> 0:31:04.400 in case to push you out. 0:31:05.120 --> 0:31:05.720 So forgive me. 0:31:07.120 --> 0:31:09.400 We are living the history and we will get to 0:31:09.760 --> 0:31:12.400 tell the people that will read about it in the 0:31:12.400 --> 0:31:14.240 history books from tomorrow on. 0:31:15.080 --> 0:31:21.480 Joe Biden didn't give up. He was pushed. Now. 0:31:21.560 --> 0:31:24.720 Latest polling when it comes to the Harris Trump race 0:31:24.840 --> 0:31:28.440 right now today, of course, Donald Trump gave a two 0:31:28.560 --> 0:31:30.560 hour rally. I think he's got to tighten them a 0:31:30.560 --> 0:31:33.120 little because Kamala Harris on he spoke for about twenty minutes. Meaning, 0:31:33.120 --> 0:31:35.800 of course, as long as she just pops up in waves, 0:31:35.840 --> 0:31:37.720 she will not be able to be exposed for whom 0:31:37.760 --> 0:31:42.360 and what she is. Latest polling nationally CNN Trump forty nine, 0:31:42.520 --> 0:31:46.000 Harris forty six, Morning Console Poll. This is a very 0:31:46.080 --> 0:31:49.840 left leaning poll. Trump forty seven, Harris forty five. The 0:31:49.920 --> 0:31:54.360 Router's Pole Harris forty four, Trump forty two. As you know, 0:31:54.440 --> 0:31:56.640 it's not just a two horse race, it's a fiveway race. 0:31:56.760 --> 0:31:59.440 So what happens when you start looking at a fiveway race, 0:32:00.240 --> 0:32:03.800 is leading by three, it's a tie, or Trump is 0:32:03.920 --> 0:32:05.320 leading by two. 0:32:06.560 --> 0:32:07.920 But then again that doesn't matter. 0:32:08.000 --> 0:32:10.440 Let's have a look at the Swing States the Swing 0:32:10.440 --> 0:32:13.400 states right now. In Pennsylvania, Trump is still winning. In Georgia, 0:32:13.440 --> 0:32:16.200 Trump is still winning another Poland Georgia, Trump is winning 0:32:16.200 --> 0:32:18.880 by even more. In Arizona, Trump is still winning by 0:32:18.920 --> 0:32:24.280 a massive margin. In Michigan, Trump is still winning. In Pennsylvania, 0:32:24.280 --> 0:32:27.440 Trump is still winning, and in Wisconsin it's pretty tight. 0:32:29.120 --> 0:32:31.680 But after another week of talking about all of this 0:32:31.720 --> 0:32:33.800 and all of the detail, let's show something fun. Remember 0:32:33.800 --> 0:32:36.200 the old show that dukes are hazard Well. The way 0:32:36.400 --> 0:32:38.520 the internet works now is that people can do anything, 0:32:38.600 --> 0:32:42.160 including making it. Like all the figures of American politics 0:32:42.480 --> 0:32:43.640 star in that show. 0:32:51.280 --> 0:32:59.360 Just a good over never meaning not harm means old. 0:32:59.400 --> 0:33:02.360 You've all man in trouble with the law.

So 0:34:21.880 --> 0:34:26.200 of course Freyer is with the Mensis Research Organization. Let's 0:34:26.200 --> 0:34:30.239 get to what is my consistent question this week that 0:34:30.320 --> 0:34:33.799 I think people are frightened about a rate rise, about 0:34:33.800 --> 0:34:36.319 the next one that's coming, when good people like Warren 0:34:36.360 --> 0:34:40.640 Hogan talk about three of them coming. When I was 0:34:40.680 --> 0:34:43.680 on holidays, this was the conversation, right, apart from Trump 0:34:43.680 --> 0:34:44.200 getting shot and. 0:34:44.160 --> 0:34:44.640 All the rest of it. 0:34:44.800 --> 0:34:48.920 Right, do you agree that if there's an interest rate rise, Freyer, 0:34:49.719 --> 0:34:52.120 it's going to cause massive problems for the Prime Minister. 0:34:52.280 --> 0:34:53.560 Now it's not going to be one terming all the 0:34:53.560 --> 0:34:55.960 rest of it, but it is going to be right 0:34:56.040 --> 0:34:58.720 up there with losing the voice as a huge problem 0:34:58.760 --> 0:34:59.319 people are going. 0:34:59.280 --> 0:35:03.319 To have from a political perspective. I mean, he got 0:35:03.360 --> 0:35:07.880 into government on two key promises. One reduced household electricity 0:35:07.920 --> 0:35:11.440 prices by two hundred and seventy five dollars exactly, and 0:35:11.520 --> 0:35:14.680 the second one was reduced people's mortgages. Now, the average 0:35:14.719 --> 0:35:17.360 household with an average mortgage of seven hundred and fifty 0:35:17.440 --> 0:35:23.320 K is currently thirty five thousand dollars worse off under 0:35:23.560 --> 0:35:28.080 this government. If we have another rate rise, that will 0:35:28.239 --> 0:35:32.360 only push up that mortgage stress even further. And it 0:35:32.520 --> 0:35:36.160 also has a lot of flow on effects. It can 0:35:36.280 --> 0:35:38.640 actually well and we were talking about this before we 0:35:38.680 --> 0:35:41.440 went on air. I'm a first home buyer at the moment, 0:35:41.520 --> 0:35:44.960 I'm getting married in December and it is so difficult. 0:35:45.000 --> 0:35:48.560 So your borrowing capacity as interest rates increase is radically reduced. 0:35:48.840 --> 0:35:51.720 So it also forces more people into the rental market. 0:35:52.040 --> 0:35:55.000 Now rental vacancy rates are running at one point two 0:35:55.080 --> 0:35:58.320 percent half of what they were pre COVID under the 0:35:58.400 --> 0:36:01.000 last ten years of liberal government. If we have even 0:36:01.200 --> 0:36:04.120 further interest rate rises, that is only going to put 0:36:04.320 --> 0:36:06.799 more pressure on the rental market and make it even 0:36:06.960 --> 0:36:11.120 more difficult to rent. So it's just this compounding problem. 0:36:11.440 --> 0:36:14.000 And while that's all happening, we're being hit with bracket 0:36:14.080 --> 0:36:18.080 creeping twenty percent more income to exist. Real wages are 0:36:18.120 --> 0:36:19.080 declining nine percent. 0:36:19.160 --> 0:36:20.279 It's just like, what's going on? 0:36:20.520 --> 0:36:21.360 Is there any hope? 0:36:21.760 --> 0:36:24.400 He came armed with the numbers that I like, Michael, 0:36:24.400 --> 0:36:26.480 I remember our conversations in the dying days of the 0:36:26.520 --> 0:36:28.279 previous government that if nothing else, one of the things 0:36:28.320 --> 0:36:30.320 they should have said while going out the door is 0:36:30.480 --> 0:36:32.480 watch these guys on interest rates. Now, look, that may 0:36:32.520 --> 0:36:36.600 well have happened somewhere, but this is a this is 0:36:36.640 --> 0:36:39.319 going to be a massive political issue if they go up, 0:36:39.360 --> 0:36:39.919 what do you reckon? 0:36:41.640 --> 0:36:43.680 So made, of course, you've got to remember that Alba 0:36:43.840 --> 0:36:46.000 has a plan to fix the cost of living crisis. 0:36:46.200 --> 0:36:48.320 He has a plan. There's a cost of living crisis. 0:36:48.400 --> 0:36:50.239 He said a thousand times during the camp. He has 0:36:50.320 --> 0:36:52.799 a plan to fix it. It's just that we're still 0:36:52.920 --> 0:36:55.279 in our patients has been tested may because we're still waiting. 0:36:55.800 --> 0:36:58.000 Look at it this way, Warren Hogan said, and he's 0:36:58.040 --> 0:37:00.279 been the most accurate of the commentators. He said, rates 0:37:00.280 --> 0:37:03.520 will increase three times this year. Will they waant? I mean, 0:37:03.680 --> 0:37:06.799 you can't have point seven three times point twenty five 0:37:07.239 --> 0:37:09.600 if that's what he's talking about. You can't have that 0:37:09.840 --> 0:37:13.200 between now and December. The Albanezy government they'll lose every seas. 0:37:14.040 --> 0:37:17.880 But there could be one, possibly two, and it all 0:37:17.920 --> 0:37:19.799 depends what the Gunian inflation number is, which I think 0:37:19.840 --> 0:37:21.440 comes out in next week. But look at this way. 0:37:21.440 --> 0:37:25.160 In two thousand and seven, inflation was three percent. Just 0:37:25.239 --> 0:37:28.759 before the election, they increased integrates to six point seventy five. 0:37:29.080 --> 0:37:33.439 Inflations are now four percent. On the same basis interest rates. 0:37:33.520 --> 0:37:36.200 If the Reserve Bank were following the same logic, they'd 0:37:36.239 --> 0:37:39.239 have interest rates somewhere between eight and nine percent. They're 0:37:39.239 --> 0:37:42.840 at four point three five. So the Reserve Bank know 0:37:43.680 --> 0:37:46.120 that bullet knows that when you've got a gap between 0:37:46.160 --> 0:37:49.200 inflation and the cash rate of point three five, which 0:37:49.200 --> 0:37:50.600 is what is it at the minute, what it is 0:37:50.680 --> 0:37:55.240 at the minute, that was five point seven five percent 0:37:55.400 --> 0:37:58.240 as a gap in two thousand and seven, That's why rates. 0:37:58.920 --> 0:38:00.680 You know, if you want to if you want to 0:38:00.719 --> 0:38:03.960 affect inflation on the downward side, you have to increase 0:38:04.120 --> 0:38:07.200 rates unless that Gurne number comes off dramatically from the 0:38:07.280 --> 0:38:09.640 four percent. And what does it mean for Albow. It'll 0:38:09.719 --> 0:38:12.400 mean that he was seen to be by the electorate 0:38:12.440 --> 0:38:15.600 as an absolute and utter fraud. His plan was just 0:38:16.800 --> 0:38:18.919 his photo on the front of an empty brasure made. 0:38:19.239 --> 0:38:22.520 This guy had no plan and was utterly fraudulent in 0:38:22.600 --> 0:38:23.879 what he told the electric Well. 0:38:23.760 --> 0:38:26.479 He's already underwater in his popularity numbers. They will become 0:38:26.520 --> 0:38:29.520 dramatically worse. We don't wish for the economy to get 0:38:29.560 --> 0:38:31.960 worse because of political outcomes, but the reality is if 0:38:32.000 --> 0:38:33.960 it does, that is what is going to happen. Or 0:38:34.440 --> 0:38:36.719 reshuffle time here, dead wood goes out of the way. 0:38:38.200 --> 0:38:42.920 I've got to say, hyfray, I don't care. Like I've 0:38:43.040 --> 0:38:46.239 watched this long enough and that this is this sort 0:38:46.239 --> 0:38:47.960 of campra thing where they think that a government somehow 0:38:48.239 --> 0:38:50.279 is rejuvenated because this person moves over. 0:38:50.520 --> 0:38:52.880 No none, no, like this is one of that nothing will. 0:38:52.840 --> 0:38:55.560 Change regardless of whether they get rid of the bad 0:38:55.600 --> 0:38:57.120 ones or they move around the good ones. 0:38:57.160 --> 0:38:57.640 What do you reckon. 0:38:58.080 --> 0:38:59.759 I think you're spot on, and I think it's going 0:38:59.800 --> 0:39:02.239 to take a bit more than a cheeky reshuffle to 0:39:02.320 --> 0:39:05.759 make people forget the last two years of chaotic and 0:39:05.960 --> 0:39:09.840 clueless labor government. So I mean, it would be a 0:39:09.960 --> 0:39:12.279 miracle if this did anything to turn things around for 0:39:12.360 --> 0:39:12.920 Albert well. 0:39:12.960 --> 0:39:15.440 And also, you know, unless there's a true accountability like 0:39:15.520 --> 0:39:18.960 what I was mentioning before Michael about the age care stuff. Right, 0:39:19.160 --> 0:39:21.600 if four out of ten people are nownourished, then that 0:39:21.719 --> 0:39:23.800 minister goes, oh, but it's slightly better than it was 0:39:23.840 --> 0:39:26.920 two years. No, not good enough, Not okay, but because 0:39:27.320 --> 0:39:29.160 but because you've got a prime minister who won't sack 0:39:29.239 --> 0:39:32.239 people who he should be sacking, let alone holding people accountable. 0:39:32.480 --> 0:39:34.320 So we can send up at press conferences today and 0:39:34.400 --> 0:39:35.600 say we're great because. 0:39:35.400 --> 0:39:38.719 We haven't got rid of people. Then everything only either 0:39:38.800 --> 0:39:41.840 stays the same or gets worse and it really annoys people. 0:39:43.520 --> 0:39:46.319 Well, my guest mate is he just can't sack Giles, right, 0:39:46.440 --> 0:39:49.800 Giles is a personal friend and a factional ally. Giles 0:39:49.800 --> 0:39:52.960 will be saying to Alban easy mate, forevermore. I'll be 0:39:53.080 --> 0:39:55.839 the trivial pursuit question who was the only minister sacked 0:39:55.920 --> 0:39:57.680 during the first term of the Alban Eazy government. Me 0:39:57.800 --> 0:40:00.279 your best friend. So if he's going to if he's 0:40:00.320 --> 0:40:02.799 going to sack people, he's going to sack two or three? 0:40:03.360 --> 0:40:05.320 Is he going to sack two or three? Well, is 0:40:05.320 --> 0:40:07.719 he a sack Bowen? No, he should, but he's not gay. 0:40:07.920 --> 0:40:09.080 Is he going to sack Claire and Neil? 0:40:09.160 --> 0:40:09.200 Know? 0:40:09.960 --> 0:40:12.839 So I suspect you don't know. But I suspect he'll 0:40:12.920 --> 0:40:16.120 just shift Giles rather than sack him, because he can't 0:40:16.239 --> 0:40:20.520 just sack one one minister mate, that would be Albanez. 0:40:20.560 --> 0:40:22.719 He would never never live that down, and Giles would 0:40:22.760 --> 0:40:23.759 never let him live it down. 0:40:24.160 --> 0:40:26.920 Yeah, I reckon immigration goes into home affairs, Home affairs 0:40:26.960 --> 0:40:31.160 will change and he'll stay as the migration minister or 0:40:31.160 --> 0:40:34.240 a multicultural minister. Right now, let's talk about what happened 0:40:34.239 --> 0:40:36.080 in the DC today. And I'm not talking about the 0:40:36.080 --> 0:40:38.960 speech of Benjamin then, but some of the wild protesting 0:40:39.080 --> 0:40:43.280 right to actually see at the train station that people 0:40:43.400 --> 0:40:44.400 go to get. 0:40:44.280 --> 0:40:45.120 To Washington, d C. 0:40:45.320 --> 0:40:49.040 Hamas is coming is a frightening thing to see. That's 0:40:49.120 --> 0:40:52.160 not about the people in Palestine, that's not about the innocence. 0:40:52.680 --> 0:40:55.040 That's about hamas is coming, all right, think of that 0:40:55.280 --> 0:40:58.000 as isis, think of that as our all the rest 0:40:58.040 --> 0:40:58.160 of it. 0:40:58.280 --> 0:40:58.440 Right. 0:41:00.080 --> 0:41:04.160 Yet, of course, obviously the President is making the little 0:41:04.160 --> 0:41:06.279 speech that he did today, but you'd think there'd be 0:41:06.360 --> 0:41:09.200 some sort of statement turning around saying no it isn't, 0:41:09.680 --> 0:41:13.040 No they're not. But nothing will really be said about 0:41:13.080 --> 0:41:15.320 this and it'll just be peaceful protests. 0:41:16.239 --> 0:41:22.400 Why not, Michael, mate, it's been discussing what happened in 0:41:22.480 --> 0:41:25.520 America today, But look at the Democratic Party, right, they 0:41:25.680 --> 0:41:29.719 have a hard left component right, a Jewish hating, hard 0:41:29.840 --> 0:41:35.120 left extremist fringe to the Democratic Party in America who 0:41:35.320 --> 0:41:37.480 are very antie Israel. The fact that seventy of them 0:41:37.520 --> 0:41:40.040 didn't turn up to hear the Prime Minister Israel speech 0:41:40.120 --> 0:41:44.840 today is disgusting. He's a leader of an American ally 0:41:45.239 --> 0:41:48.239 put it in the context of the vice presidential pick 0:41:48.440 --> 0:41:50.759 and with that left wing right. And Harris of course 0:41:50.840 --> 0:41:52.080 is in part of the mad left. As we know, 0:41:52.200 --> 0:41:54.879 she was voted in nineteen as the most extreme left 0:41:54.920 --> 0:41:57.080 wing senator in the US Senate to the left of 0:41:57.120 --> 0:41:59.440 Bernie Sanders, which will come out in due course. But 0:41:59.520 --> 0:42:02.080 look at it's mate, Harris has got all this pressure 0:42:02.160 --> 0:42:04.360 from the left to be more to be tough on 0:42:04.360 --> 0:42:10.000 in Israel. Kamala Harris's husband is Jewish. The lead candidate 0:42:10.080 --> 0:42:12.880 for the vice presidency, Mark Kelly, the Senator of Arizona. 0:42:12.960 --> 0:42:17.480 His wife is Jewish. She's a famous American Gary Gabby 0:42:17.520 --> 0:42:19.759 biggis in her own right because she survived assassination, as 0:42:19.800 --> 0:42:22.360 you know, yep. And the other one is the governor. 0:42:22.400 --> 0:42:25.120 The one who should be the candidate is Josh Shapiro, 0:42:25.239 --> 0:42:30.920 who's the governor of Pennsylvania, also Jewish. So Harris will 0:42:30.960 --> 0:42:34.640 bounder extreme pressure from the hard left not to appoint 0:42:34.680 --> 0:42:37.640 anyone with Jewish connections family connections to be her vice 0:42:37.680 --> 0:42:41.840 presidential running mate, or you'll have all those Palestinian voters 0:42:41.880 --> 0:42:45.200 in Michigan who the Democrats are scared of not turn 0:42:45.239 --> 0:42:46.800 out to vote for it, and they can't afford to 0:42:46.840 --> 0:42:50.840 lose Michigan. This will be a really fascinating decision to 0:42:50.880 --> 0:42:54.120 see her she picks as her vice presidential candidate mate. 0:42:54.200 --> 0:42:56.040 Not that I can give anyone advice about betting that 0:42:56.160 --> 0:42:58.000 Mark Kelly, marke Kelly. Marke Kelly would seem to be 0:42:58.239 --> 0:43:02.160 the way that she's going to go because potentially win Arizona, 0:43:02.239 --> 0:43:04.800 as Shapiro would for a Pennsylvani But we'll get to 0:43:04.800 --> 0:43:05.120 that all right. 0:43:05.120 --> 0:43:07.320 Winner and loser of the week. Who stands out for you? 0:43:08.239 --> 0:43:10.800 Winner I think is probably the CFMU, which we didn't 0:43:10.840 --> 0:43:14.840 touch on today, But there, despite their incredible links with 0:43:14.880 --> 0:43:18.279 the underworld and biky gangs and terrible practices, are still 0:43:18.280 --> 0:43:20.120 allowed to donate to the Labor Party in a lot 0:43:20.160 --> 0:43:20.560 of states. 0:43:21.040 --> 0:43:23.839 Why those allegations, they've got a code of conduct, code 0:43:23.840 --> 0:43:24.839 of conduct fine. 0:43:26.280 --> 0:43:29.160 CFM is a definite winner and a loser. As we've 0:43:29.200 --> 0:43:30.640 talked about average Australians. 0:43:31.000 --> 0:43:32.759 As always, Michael yours. 0:43:34.440 --> 0:43:36.440 Louser of the week is an eighty one year old 0:43:36.480 --> 0:43:39.440 American whose name we all know. And the winners of 0:43:39.520 --> 0:43:41.680 the winners of the winners of the week mate are 0:43:41.920 --> 0:43:45.279 the parents. The parents of the young Australian men and 0:43:45.320 --> 0:43:47.719 women who were selected in the Olympic team to go 0:43:47.840 --> 0:43:50.399 to Paris. Whether they win a medal or not, their 0:43:50.520 --> 0:43:53.279 parents should be incredibly proud of them to be picked 0:43:53.320 --> 0:43:54.520 on the Australian Olympic team. 0:43:54.680 --> 0:43:55.040 What or not? 0:43:55.280 --> 0:43:58.319 What an achievement and world under all the parents whose 0:43:58.400 --> 0:44:01.000 kids are over there in Paris representing a great country. 0:44:00.960 --> 0:44:01.360 I'm with you. 0:44:01.520 --> 0:44:03.880 And if you happen to be accidentally watching a bit 0:44:03.880 --> 0:44:05.759 of a live event, don't forget to record us, watch 0:44:05.840 --> 0:44:08.160 us on demand all get the podcast at scott News 0:44:08.160 --> 0:44:08.400 dot com. 0:44:08.440 --> 0:44:10.319 That are you each and every year day We'll still 0:44:10.320 --> 0:44:12.000 be here, the news will still be here. We know 0:44:12.080 --> 0:44:14.080 how well it can be. Thank you, guys, do appreciate it. 0:44:14.120 --> 0:44:16.800 We'll go to the States next with Analyst Nielsen to 0:44:16.880 --> 0:44:18.840 wrap up one heck of a week and that awful 0:44:18.920 --> 0:44:25.320 spruit want to see. I say it every time. I 0:44:25.400 --> 0:44:28.120 love Analyst Nielsen on and off the air. She's fantastic 0:44:28.200 --> 0:44:29.640 and she's done such a great job with it for 0:44:29.760 --> 0:44:31.799 us in the United States. She joins us now before 0:44:31.840 --> 0:44:33.560 the sun comes up in Washington, d C. 0:44:33.760 --> 0:44:34.719 Lovely to see a rock star. 0:44:34.800 --> 0:44:36.920 All right, we started the day together, we end the 0:44:37.000 --> 0:44:38.880 day together on the Telly and I'm just going to 0:44:38.920 --> 0:44:40.239 give it all over to you here. 0:44:40.840 --> 0:44:46.480 Biden's speech was terrible, right, Okay, So this is the 0:44:46.560 --> 0:44:47.160 interesting thing. 0:44:47.200 --> 0:44:49.080 I'm just waking up, which is why I promise I'm 0:44:49.080 --> 0:44:53.080 not crying. I'm yawning. But the interesting thing that's reminded 0:44:53.120 --> 0:44:56.120 me and all this is that America is a country 0:44:56.160 --> 0:44:59.400 that lives in parallel universes, and election times are when 0:44:59.440 --> 0:45:01.560 they come together. Because I was scanning all the news 0:45:01.600 --> 0:45:05.160 as I woke up, and some of the pieces, I'm like, 0:45:05.280 --> 0:45:09.200 did we watch the same speech? What are you talking about? 0:45:09.719 --> 0:45:12.359 Because half of the coverage has been about the gravitas 0:45:12.680 --> 0:45:16.560 he met the moment. What a leader he's done, just 0:45:16.640 --> 0:45:18.960 such a service for democracy. Thank god we have him, 0:45:19.000 --> 0:45:21.320 and thank god we've got Kamala on the way. And 0:45:21.400 --> 0:45:23.960 then the other half of the media is saying he's 0:45:24.719 --> 0:45:27.359 had to pull out. He's not acknowledging why he's had 0:45:27.400 --> 0:45:29.520 to pull out. That speech didn't do anything to make 0:45:29.600 --> 0:45:32.600 us feel better about what we saw. And this is 0:45:32.680 --> 0:45:35.080 how this election is going to run. And we've already 0:45:35.120 --> 0:45:38.200 seen the Trump campaign lean into this saying, look, he's 0:45:38.239 --> 0:45:40.400 had to drop out. We know it's because of his age. 0:45:40.800 --> 0:45:43.320 And you've got Kamala Harris coming in. She spent the 0:45:43.400 --> 0:45:45.960 last three years pretending nothing's wrong with his age, and 0:45:46.040 --> 0:45:47.960 now we're supposed to believe that this was all done 0:45:48.680 --> 0:45:50.520 at the last minute, just because this is such a 0:45:50.560 --> 0:45:53.920 spur of the moment revelation for everyone, and this is 0:45:54.000 --> 0:45:56.040 going to hit home with people. I think more than 0:45:56.040 --> 0:45:59.759 anyone in DC's acknowledging because boss aren't stupid. They're watching 0:45:59.800 --> 0:46:03.760 all this play out, and if they're not paying attention normally, 0:46:03.880 --> 0:46:04.759 there certainly are now. 0:46:05.239 --> 0:46:08.640 But also, look, obviously we all know that there's a 0:46:08.640 --> 0:46:11.279 whole bunch of people who sort of cleaved off from 0:46:11.320 --> 0:46:13.480 the news in and around COVID, right. I think there's 0:46:13.480 --> 0:46:15.000 a whole bunch of people that are going to cleave 0:46:15.040 --> 0:46:18.799 off as well after seeing the political coverage of everything's okay, 0:46:18.880 --> 0:46:19.560 everything's fine. 0:46:19.800 --> 0:46:21.400 Wow, we're really surprised it's not. 0:46:21.880 --> 0:46:25.279 And then they've just gone straight back to pretending that 0:46:25.760 --> 0:46:28.919 we all didn't see the same thing. Again, nobody wants 0:46:28.960 --> 0:46:31.040 another human being to be embarrassed, let alone the president 0:46:31.040 --> 0:46:31.800 of the United States. 0:46:32.040 --> 0:46:33.360 But it was embarrassing. 0:46:33.760 --> 0:46:37.080 He couldn't finish what was going on, and he just 0:46:37.120 --> 0:46:39.360 should have filmed, He should have pre recorded something in 0:46:39.440 --> 0:46:40.040 the Rose Garden. 0:46:40.080 --> 0:46:40.880 Who would have cared? 0:46:44.120 --> 0:46:45.839 And just the fact it took so long for him 0:46:45.840 --> 0:46:48.319 to front a camera, just it was days of well, 0:46:48.400 --> 0:46:51.160 what's really happening? Is he really okay? Are they lying 0:46:51.200 --> 0:46:53.240 to us about this? Why is this done by Twitter? 0:46:53.960 --> 0:46:57.440 And she found us across the board, even like diehard 0:46:57.480 --> 0:47:00.520 Trump supporters when you talk to them just one on one. 0:47:01.120 --> 0:47:04.600 No one's enjoyed watching Joe Biden decline in public. Everyone 0:47:04.800 --> 0:47:06.640 seems to have a story of a relative that's been 0:47:06.680 --> 0:47:09.680 through something similar. They feel like it's been a really 0:47:09.800 --> 0:47:13.319 undignified way to treat him, and the people around him 0:47:13.360 --> 0:47:15.840 should have been doing more to protect him during all this. 0:47:16.520 --> 0:47:19.320 And I think if he just stepped back earlier and 0:47:19.520 --> 0:47:21.960 let there be a proper primary process where they could 0:47:22.000 --> 0:47:24.600 have a competitive race, where they could really let the 0:47:24.680 --> 0:47:27.440 voters decide instead of just continually saying, well, I've had 0:47:27.440 --> 0:47:30.279 fourteen million people vote for me, I'm the candidate. You 0:47:30.360 --> 0:47:34.360 didn't give them another option. So it's really if anything. 0:47:34.760 --> 0:47:36.920 I mean, at the beginning, Karmala Harris could have come 0:47:36.960 --> 0:47:39.279 out of the primaries. Maybe she was meeting the moment 0:47:39.360 --> 0:47:42.640 in history. Maybe people do want a female president and 0:47:42.880 --> 0:47:44.800 this could have been her time and she could have 0:47:45.120 --> 0:47:47.680 killed it, but we'll never know. She wasn't given that chance. 0:47:47.800 --> 0:47:50.799 No one else was given the chance. And now we're 0:47:50.840 --> 0:47:52.839 going to have to watch these debates. This is going 0:47:52.920 --> 0:47:56.000 to be I think, just a really defining moment, these debates. 0:47:56.080 --> 0:47:59.200 If Karmala Harris can't hold their own against Trump. She 0:47:59.320 --> 0:48:01.840 looks weak. The other story we're not talking about is 0:48:01.880 --> 0:48:05.360 the fact that there were bombers planes from Russia and 0:48:05.560 --> 0:48:09.760 China intercepted off the coast of Alaska. Oh my gosh. 0:48:10.320 --> 0:48:13.000 Lisa mccowski, the Senator from Alaska, just put out a 0:48:13.040 --> 0:48:17.800 statement about how this is unprecedented and this is really serious. 0:48:17.960 --> 0:48:21.960 The fact that these trips happen with the Russian planes 0:48:22.040 --> 0:48:25.200 or the Chinese ones, but together on that night, that 0:48:25.480 --> 0:48:27.320 is really alarming, and that goes right to what the 0:48:27.400 --> 0:48:29.640 Republicans are worried about at the moment, that we look 0:48:29.760 --> 0:48:32.080 weak on the world stage, that advers areas are going 0:48:32.160 --> 0:48:35.919 to be using this moment to take advantage one hundred percent. 0:48:36.280 --> 0:48:39.279 By the way, a new poll from The Hill, which 0:48:39.360 --> 0:48:41.839 is a sort of inside baseball thing when it comes 0:48:41.880 --> 0:48:46.520 to politics, Trump is still leading in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin. 0:48:46.880 --> 0:48:50.000 So one percent when there was a shot fired, one 0:48:50.040 --> 0:48:52.120 percent when there was a debate meltdown in one percent 0:48:52.200 --> 0:48:53.640 when there is a change of candidate. 0:48:53.840 --> 0:48:55.600 Welcome to the race. You're covering and you're the best 0:48:55.640 --> 0:48:56.600 in the business at it. Thank you. 0:48:56.640 --> 0:48:59.080 Analyse and Aalise Nielsen there in the United States. We'll 0:48:59.080 --> 0:49:01.239 see you again next wake. Have a wonderful weekend wherever 0:49:01.280 --> 0:49:01.759 you happen to be. 0:49:02.560 --> 0:49:03.480 Go Yankees Up.
