1 00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:04,479 Speaker 1: On Scolds Australia. 2 00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:11,000 Speaker 2: This is the Reader Panalty Show. Good evening and welcome 3 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:14,040 Speaker 2: to the Rita Patty Show. Coming up tonight. Susan Lee 4 00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:18,000 Speaker 2: under pressure as Andrew Hasty prepares to launch a challenge. 5 00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:21,239 Speaker 2: Colleen Harkin and Christy McSweeney will join me to cover 6 00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:25,640 Speaker 2: the day's top headlines. Lefty influencers are losing it a 7 00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 2: support for Australia days surges to new highs. I'll speak 8 00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:34,200 Speaker 2: with Klista Clemens about that shortly more reckless retrick from 9 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 2: Democrats inciting violence after a fatal ice shooting in Minneapolis. 10 00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:43,959 Speaker 2: Josh Hammer will provide his insights later, and Brooklyn Beckham 11 00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:47,560 Speaker 2: maybe falling in Prince Harry's footsteps with a tel Or 12 00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:51,800 Speaker 2: memoir Kinsey's Schofield will give us all the details about 13 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 2: that later in the hour. And left is Losing It 14 00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 2: isn't just about bananas and rice. 15 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 3: You know if people don't think, oh, you can bananas 16 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,920 Speaker 3: with race, but that's what it's like to be Somali 17 00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 3: an American. It's like that combination of banana race. 18 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 2: But first, Andrew Hasty looks set to challenge Susan Lee 19 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:15,600 Speaker 2: for the Liberal leadership after he was given the blessing 20 00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 2: of his young family. Sources close so Hasty told the 21 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:22,639 Speaker 2: Australian newspaper that he had discussed the implications of taking 22 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,399 Speaker 2: up the job with his wife, Ruth, who said she 23 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 2: was fully supportive. The Liberals are in turmoil, with their 24 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:34,240 Speaker 2: poll numbers at record lows and the Nationals walking away 25 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 2: from the coalition. National leader David Little Proud has refused 26 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:41,840 Speaker 2: to say whether he would back Hasty as leader. Liberal 27 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 2: Senator Jane Hugh refuse to address the speculation. 28 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 4: Susan Lee is the leader. There is no spill. Anything 29 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 4: else is simply a hypothetical. No one has called me 30 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 4: and asked me to vote for them. Susan Lee is 31 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 4: my leader. She has been elected by the party room 32 00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 4: and we will continue to serve under a leader. 33 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 2: Joining me now is Institute of Public Affairs Senior Fellow 34 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:09,640 Speaker 2: Colleen Harken and pr Council Managing Director Christy McSweeney. Colleen, 35 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:13,079 Speaker 2: I'll start with you. There appeared to be two contenders 36 00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 2: for this job, Andrew Hasty and Angus Taylor. Who do 37 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 2: you think will prevail or is it inevitable? Are we 38 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 2: getting ahead of ourselves? Could Lee hold on? 39 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:25,240 Speaker 1: I don't see how she can hold on in the 40 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 1: longer term. She might in the shorter term because to 41 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 1: do it too soon would make it look like they've 42 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 1: acquiesced to the National's push. But I think there's a 43 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 1: bigger problem here. The Liberal Party in particular, seems to 44 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 1: have forgotten what the role. 45 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 2: Of opposition is. 46 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 1: They've forgotten that their job is not to help labor 47 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,640 Speaker 1: with bad legislation. Their job is to oppose and to 48 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 1: hold them to account. And so now, regardless of whoever 49 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:50,919 Speaker 1: may or may not take over in due course, we're 50 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 1: stuck with that legislation because the Liberals helped bring it 51 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,119 Speaker 1: to parts. So in years to come, if they ever 52 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 1: do get back into government, they're stuck with this legislation 53 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 1: because they were the people who helped get it across 54 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: the line. There's been an enormous amount of pushback, rightly 55 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,519 Speaker 1: so about it, and in all of that context, I 56 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 1: think the Nationals have held themselves well, although they're starting 57 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,360 Speaker 1: to look shambolic again today yesterday. 58 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 2: It is just such a shame Christy, because it is 59 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 2: terrible legislation. It's one thing for the opposition to back 60 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:25,120 Speaker 2: good legislation, but to forget that their opposition to forget 61 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,799 Speaker 2: that they're supposed to stand up for liberal values. And 62 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 2: then you've got someone like Hasty who was complicit in 63 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 2: passing this legislation. So how is he going to prove 64 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 2: to those disaffected Liberal voters who have abandoned the party 65 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 2: that they should come back when he passed these so 66 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 2: called hate speech laws. 67 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 5: Look, there's many people in the conservative side of the 68 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 5: Liberal Party, of which Andrew Hasty is won, and there's 69 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 5: was Mechalli Cash, Andrew Hasty, James Patterson, John O'Donovan, all conservatives. 70 00:03:56,640 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 5: These people are hardly people that rally oats and policy 71 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 5: positions for the moderate. 72 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 2: Side of the faction. 73 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 5: They are hardly people who are not free speech supporters. 74 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 5: So they have taken a view that let's not stop 75 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,600 Speaker 5: the perfect being the enemy of the good. However, there 76 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 5: are deeper questions to answer about how this legislation is 77 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 5: going to be enacted. I don't think there was enough 78 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 5: time for people to go through the bill and to 79 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 5: make sure those amendments that were put forward and pass 80 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 5: were adequate, and amendments that the Liberal Party would probably 81 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 5: support as a whole, and come to a position where 82 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 5: both factions could support it. However, that is what happens 83 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 5: when you demand that Parliament be recalled and do not 84 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:45,160 Speaker 5: have a plan or a strategy of what you will 85 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 5: do with your voice once parliament. Well that's reported on 86 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 5: once you have won that fart off the back of 87 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:56,599 Speaker 5: a couple of wins, calling the Prime Minister, forcing him 88 00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,159 Speaker 5: to call a Royal commission and then forcing him to 89 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 5: recall part parliament. Two wins there, And we hate putting 90 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 5: this in the context of winning and losing over such 91 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:10,159 Speaker 5: tragic circumstances. However, losing that advantage once you have no 92 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,839 Speaker 5: strategy and no plan, once you get what you want. 93 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 2: Well, that is the indictment here, Colleen. Because Susan Lee 94 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 2: demanded Parliament be recalled, she had no plan, and it 95 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 2: seems like part of the reason these terrible laws were 96 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 2: passed was so she could justify that those calls, because 97 00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:32,040 Speaker 2: the Prime Minister did come out and say, why are 98 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 2: you demanding parliament a record when you've really got enough 99 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 2: substantial to offer here. And I think it's just such 100 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 2: a great shame for the country that we have an 101 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:45,200 Speaker 2: Islamist terror attack. And what comes out of that is 102 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 2: that the free speech of ordinary Australians is impacted in 103 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 2: a negative way, including the ability to robustly talk about 104 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 2: Islamism and mass migration and all sorts of other important issues. Yeah. 105 00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 1: Correct, The target that it was supposed to address has 106 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:02,159 Speaker 1: not been targeted. 107 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 2: He has not been addressed at all. 108 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 1: We've got a High Court challenge from the very group 109 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 1: that's supposed to have been shut down. Though it's the 110 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 1: ordinary Australian who will suffer here in the longer term. 111 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,840 Speaker 1: There's no way in my view that those MPs could 112 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:19,159 Speaker 1: have done due justice, due diligence to five hundred pages 113 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,720 Speaker 1: of legislation in the two days or whatever it was 114 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:23,839 Speaker 1: that they were looking at it. The consequences of this 115 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: are enormous and I think that there's all trying to 116 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:28,840 Speaker 1: backtrack and say it'll will be okay, but I think 117 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:30,720 Speaker 1: everybody knows it's bad legislation. 118 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:35,720 Speaker 2: Now let's get back to the potential leadership challenge. There's 119 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:39,719 Speaker 2: a lot being said about Hasty being from Wa. Christie, 120 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 2: can you have a leader from Wa. We've only had 121 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 2: one Prime Minister in Australia's history who has been from WA. 122 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 2: Does seem to be a bit of an impediment. 123 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:53,040 Speaker 5: Look, and this is not my view on backing any 124 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 5: candidate that has currently put their hand up or may 125 00:06:55,920 --> 00:07:00,200 Speaker 5: do so in the future. However, we do have him 126 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 5: Beasley was from Western Australia. 127 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:03,360 Speaker 2: And it doesn't work out well, And well, it. 128 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,240 Speaker 5: Did work out well, but he held the job for 129 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 5: a long long time. And of course I'm sure Andrew 130 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 5: Hasty will argue that Western Australia is now going to 131 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 5: form a key part or key involvement in the Liberal 132 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 5: Party's policy platform going forward. Shall we ever get some 133 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 5: policies around orcus there's significant investment there from the United 134 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 5: States in housing and infrastructure. 135 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 2: In defense. 136 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 5: I'm sure he'll run the Western Australian line that WA 137 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 5: contributes the most to the running of the national economy 138 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 5: and underpins our standard of living in Western Australia, and 139 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 5: so all of those things are hugely relevant, and perhaps 140 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,880 Speaker 5: it might bring some attention to just how relevant Western 141 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 5: Australia is. As a proud Western Australian myself. However, as 142 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 5: I say, he's got a long long way to go 143 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 5: to convince many others of that, as does anyone who 144 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:56,560 Speaker 5: wants the job. 145 00:07:57,320 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 2: Well, we are in the digital age. I think the 146 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 2: issue being from WA is a lot less than it 147 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 2: was in the past. You know, we're all want our 148 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 2: devices twenty four to seven. You can speak to anybody 149 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 2: anywhere and you can. I'm pretty sure Hasty has a 150 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 2: setup in his home or his office so he can 151 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 2: do media interviews without leaving his electorate if he needs to. 152 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 2: Now let's talk about Australia Day. We've had the usual 153 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 2: Invasion Day rallies, all the hate and hysterian division, but 154 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 2: the polls continue to come in. People are overwhelmingly supportive. 155 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 2: Another poll here by the News Court Papers has found 156 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 2: an overwhelming majority of Australians would not support businesses they 157 00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 2: boycott Australia Day. Nearly ninety percent were less likely to 158 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 2: support businesses they boycotted Australia, while only three percent that's 159 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 2: the lowed minority there were more likely to support those businesses. 160 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:58,080 Speaker 2: Ninety six percent said they felt pride when they saw 161 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:02,440 Speaker 2: the Australian flag, and this constant bickering over the date 162 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 2: of Australia Day was also nominated as the worst thing 163 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 2: about the national day. Now. Christy Lush is a company 164 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 2: that is protesting Australia Day. They claim for Indigenous people 165 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 2: it is a day of mourning, survival, and remembrance, a 166 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:22,320 Speaker 2: stark reminder of the violence and dispossession that began with 167 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 2: invasion and continues to echo through systems and lived experiences today. 168 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:33,079 Speaker 2: I mean, really, Lush should concentrate on the hideous stench 169 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 2: that emanates from their stores. I cannot even walk past 170 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 2: one of their stores in a shopping center without getting 171 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 2: a headache that there's some sort of a nuisance that company. 172 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 2: But this is pretty dumb marketing. Sure you're appealing to 173 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 2: the three percent, but ninety percent one don't want our 174 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 2: corporations to get all political, and if they are getting political, 175 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 2: don't be on the wrong side of history. 176 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 5: Of course, and this replicates what we've seen from large 177 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 5: corporates who have actively publicly put out statements saying we 178 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 5: are giving our stuff the choice of celebrating another holiday 179 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,719 Speaker 5: and coming in to work on Australiada and choosing to 180 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 5: have a day off another day of their preference. This 181 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:17,079 Speaker 5: is ridiculous that corporates have gone to this extent thinking 182 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 5: that that resonates with the majority of Australians. 183 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 2: It doesn't. 184 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 5: Those numbers that you've pointed out are really really clear, 185 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,720 Speaker 5: and I think we're seeing a backlash of people who 186 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 5: are just constantly sick of people not celebrating Australia. 187 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:38,720 Speaker 2: Absolutely our national day. And it's not about the date, 188 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 2: because if you're actually familiar with the date, if you're 189 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 2: familiar with the date of the arrival, you wouldn't be 190 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,959 Speaker 2: perturbed by January twenty sixth I learn your history. First 191 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 2: of all, it's about opposition to any celebration of Australia. 192 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 2: You could change the date to whatever you like, whatever 193 00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:00,280 Speaker 2: they suggest, and they will still have protests on that day. 194 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 2: But on the corporate virtue signaling, we saw this last year, Colleen. 195 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 2: We had a major hospitality group more than two hundred 196 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:14,199 Speaker 2: venues across Australia, Australian Venues Company. They were forced to 197 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 2: apologize after they told their managers that there should be 198 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 2: no acknowledgment of Australia Day, or January twenty sixth as 199 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 2: they called it. Companies are starting to figure out there's 200 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 2: a price to pay, because for a long time, as 201 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 2: long as you were virtue signaling to the left, they 202 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:35,839 Speaker 2: felt pretty safe because the right kind of just you know, 203 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 2: opt it. But now the rest of the country, the 204 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 2: silent majority is saying nah, enough. We've had it, well, 205 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:44,840 Speaker 2: we saw it. 206 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 1: We've always pay the price with the lack of shoppers 207 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 1: attending their stores. Look, I mean, in any given year 208 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:57,720 Speaker 1: there is Sorry Day, Nadock Week, Reconciliation Week. Australians have 209 00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 1: recognized what's happened in the past, We've said sorry. All 210 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,439 Speaker 1: Australians want to move on and celebrate our national Day together. 211 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 1: Christie's citing just there. Of the people who were given 212 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 1: the choice of taking a different day of holiday, eighteen 213 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 1: to twenty four year olds at IPA research will tell 214 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,320 Speaker 1: you that eighty three percent of them say no, we want. 215 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 2: To celebrate it on Australia Day. 216 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:21,079 Speaker 1: We're proud of our country, We're proud of who we are. 217 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:22,320 Speaker 2: The people who are. 218 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 1: Doing this have no knowledge of history. They should come 219 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:28,199 Speaker 1: to the IPA's schools program dot org dot a you 220 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:32,400 Speaker 1: download a unit about Captain Philip, about the rule of law, 221 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 1: how it was established, about how convicts were given rights. 222 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:38,080 Speaker 1: I mean, there's just so much issue that they're not 223 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:40,679 Speaker 1: knowledgeable of and they need to do a bit of reading. 224 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 5: Before they carry on with all of this and not 225 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 5: taught in schools. Correct And can I also add just 226 00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 5: to the corporate virtue signaling that company, that hospitality group 227 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 5: we're speaking about, is owned almost wholly by Singapore investment 228 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 5: company by one Singaporean billionaire. I don't think he really 229 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:00,199 Speaker 5: cares about celebrating Australia Day. 230 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 2: Well, knowing how Singapore is run, I'd say that he'd 231 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 2: be pretty upset about the corporate virtues seen from his 232 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 2: senior managers, and perhaps he's moved them on in the 233 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 2: in the last twelve months. Colleen Harken, Christop mcsquaeney, thank 234 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 2: you so much for your time tonight.

I was born here. 242 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 6: My skin color and my bloodlines do not dictate my 243 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:41,720 Speaker 6: connection to my land. 244 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:47,840 Speaker 2: Calisa Clements joins me in Melbourne. Callista, welcome to Sky News, 245 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 2: your first time on air. 246 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:49,520 Speaker 8: Here. 247 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:53,960 Speaker 2: Tell me about the anti Australia Day sentiment. It reaches 248 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 2: a fever pitch every year on our national holiday. 249 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:00,160 Speaker 6: Well, thank you so much having me on reader, and 250 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:03,640 Speaker 6: happy Australia Days, Australia Day if you're lucky enough to 251 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 6: be a Victorian like myself. Unfortunately, we do see protests 252 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 6: every single Sunday, something new every single Sunday, and of 253 00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 6: course twenty six of January marking a day of national 254 00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 6: unity should be national unity and celebration for our beautiful 255 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 6: country and our beautiful people. We see the same people 256 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 6: who preach inclusivity and equality out there on the streets 257 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 6: creating more division in our nation. And it's not helping 258 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 6: the cause for anyone, to be quite frank. 259 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 2: It's not. And they are losing the they're losing the population, 260 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 2: they're losing the majority. There was a Resolve poll today 261 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 2: which found support for changing the date has declined from 262 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,880 Speaker 2: thirty nine percent back in twenty twenty three to just 263 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 2: sixteen percent this year, and we've seen multiple poles in 264 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 2: recent weeks showing support for Australia Day is increasing, with 265 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 2: the overwhelming majority of the country against changing the day 266 00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:04,480 Speaker 2: and being proud of our national holiday. But despite that 267 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 2: you've still got that very online world, the so called 268 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 2: instanin influencers, TikTokers raging about Australia day. Tell me about 269 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 2: that divide between you could call it the real world 270 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 2: and that very online world of just emoting wildly twenty 271 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 2: four to seven. 272 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, totally. 273 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 6: I think my stances. 274 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 7: Let them rage. 275 00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 6: At the end of the day, it's going to be 276 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:36,160 Speaker 6: their own unraveling. And that's what we're seeing more and more, 277 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 6: I think in the space, especially with a lot of 278 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 6: prominent female commentators, if political commentators, if that's what you 279 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 6: want to call them. They're telling people what to think, 280 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 6: not how to think, and it goes in complete well 281 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 6: contradiction to their whole platform a matter of empowering people, 282 00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 6: empowering women, especially to speak up, be bold, and it's 283 00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 6: echoing the sentiment that if you don't, if you don't 284 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 6: mimic my voice, then you don't deserve to have a voice. 285 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 2: So a lot of these. 286 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 6: Influencers who are rage baiting us, look there there are 287 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:10,880 Speaker 6: there are their own undoing at the end of the day. 288 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 7: Reader. 289 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 2: Now you didn't name any there, but I mean a 290 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 2: couple will come immediately to my mind. The likes of 291 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 2: Clementine Ford, Abby Chatfield. They seem to fit the mold 292 00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 2: of what you just said, where they just tell the 293 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 2: audience what to think. You must think this, or that 294 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:32,800 Speaker 2: you're evil or there's something wrong with you. There's no 295 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 2: critical thinking, there's no diversity of thought. There's really not 296 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 2: much thought at all. 297 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 6: There no correct You know, you've just said two of 298 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 6: my favorite women in one sentence. 299 00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 2: They do give you a word bit of They do 300 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 2: give a fair bit of content though then. 301 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 6: They do, which I'm grateful for that that I think 302 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,840 Speaker 6: that's the only thing I'm grateful for those two women. 303 00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 6: But yeah, I think it's it's disappointing when you have there, 304 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 6: obviously two very influential women, and it is a big 305 00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:01,680 Speaker 6: shame when you know you can't preach women empowerment and 306 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 6: then at the exact same time tell a woman that 307 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 6: she's wrong if she doesn't agree with exactly what you're 308 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 6: putting out on the internet. And I think more and 309 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:12,919 Speaker 6: more gratefully people are getting sick and tired of it 310 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:13,840 Speaker 6: and they're seeing through it. 311 00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 2: Now, let's talk about one of these so called insta 312 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 2: influences here. This one has railed against Australia Day but 313 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 2: I won't play that clip because she doesn't seem to 314 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 2: just hate Australia day. She seems to have a real 315 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 2: problem with this country and a deep disdain for its 316 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:33,640 Speaker 2: people and culture. 317 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 8: Chech Australian culture, right, you know, the proud culture of 318 00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:44,879 Speaker 8: having no teeth, yelling unintelligible phrases, screaming profanity. It's strangers 319 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 8: getting plastered on a Saturday Horvor and smashing a meat 320 00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:49,439 Speaker 8: pie in the. 321 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:50,879 Speaker 2: Sorovo car park. 322 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:56,879 Speaker 8: Real Australia first behavior, mate, Yeah, nah, you're doing great, 323 00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:00,639 Speaker 8: single handedly preserving the national identity. 324 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 2: Yeah jeez, I can't understand why they're losing support. They're 325 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:12,640 Speaker 2: just just so likable and relatable. But how influential are 326 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,960 Speaker 2: these sorts of so called instant influences and tiktoks? 327 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 6: I mean too influential, too prevalent, because I don't want 328 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 6: them to exist at all, ideally, but they. 329 00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 2: Give you materials. They give the material right side, Yeah, 330 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 2: exactly right. 331 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 6: And look, I feel a lot of pity for these 332 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 6: these kind of people. And at the end of the day, 333 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 6: this is a very loud minority. It doesn't reflect the 334 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 6: majority of people. Unfortunately, people like this weaponize so many labels, 335 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 6: and it kills people's livelihoods, people's financial livelihoods when it 336 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 6: comes to label. So it's forcing people into silence. But 337 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 6: I can say one thing today is that I can 338 00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:51,879 Speaker 6: give you and your audience a lot of hope that 339 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 6: I have an amazing strong community of men and women, 340 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,399 Speaker 6: people who have previously been left people who are nuanced 341 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,800 Speaker 6: about politics, that are to see common sense and that's 342 00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 6: the way forward. And I really do think it's flipping around. 343 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:07,440 Speaker 2: Reader Clister clements. Thank you so much for time. 344 00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 6: Time having me, Reader, I appreciate it. 345 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:13,400 Speaker 2: Still to coma lefties Losing it plass the latest from 346 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:17,719 Speaker 2: the US, including reckless retrick from the Democrats following a 347 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 2: fatal ice shooting in Minneapolis. Josh Hammer, that's the latest. 348 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:36,880 Speaker 2: You're watching the Reader Panney show, and it's time for 349 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 2: lefties losing it. Let's start in Minnesota where the spin 350 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:45,719 Speaker 2: doctors have been busy fighting back after revelations of mass 351 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:49,399 Speaker 2: fraud and dysfunction in the Somali community, and they're putting 352 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 2: their best and brightest to work in front of the 353 00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 2: media to explain what it means to be Somali in America. 354 00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:58,600 Speaker 3: So I'm Samaria. 355 00:19:58,840 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 2: I I'm proud to be. 356 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 3: To me, being Somali isn't just eating bananas with race. 357 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 2: It's a it's a lie. It's like. 358 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:12,399 Speaker 3: It's a it's a it's an interesting thing. It's a 359 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:15,159 Speaker 3: it's very hard to describe what it means to be 360 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,720 Speaker 3: Somali and what it means to be American. 361 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 2: Okay, Han, I know it's hard, but you can do this. 362 00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:25,199 Speaker 2: You've already made it clear that being Somali is not 363 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:30,920 Speaker 2: about eating bananas with rice. That's a lie. You got this, and. 364 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 3: It's kind of like the bananas and race. You know, 365 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 3: people don't really see like you know, it's a it's 366 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:40,800 Speaker 3: a it's you know, people don't think, oh, you can 367 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:44,159 Speaker 3: eat bananas with race, but that's what it's like to 368 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 3: be Somali an American. It's like that combination of banana 369 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 3: and race. But you're gonna get what I mean. 370 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:55,080 Speaker 2: You literally said it wasn't about bananas and rice. They 371 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 2: are not sending their best now staying in Minnesota, let's 372 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 2: check in on the frightfully inept Governor Tim Walls. He 373 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:07,640 Speaker 2: is with his scary wife, speaking from behind the gates 374 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:08,440 Speaker 2: of his mansion. 375 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:10,120 Speaker 9: The resistance matters. 376 00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:12,439 Speaker 7: We're not knowing people to be silent. 377 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:15,360 Speaker 8: But we're not yelling people to go out and cause problem. 378 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:16,920 Speaker 5: We're going to cause good. 379 00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:20,240 Speaker 2: Trouble, cause trouble, all right, Not good trouble, mind you. 380 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 2: No good comes from coming to a violent uprising with 381 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:29,920 Speaker 2: a loaded gun, an extra AMMO and violently obstructing law 382 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:33,359 Speaker 2: enforcement officers. That's what happened in Minneapolis, and that's why 383 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:36,199 Speaker 2: a man is dead. But not if you listen to 384 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:40,520 Speaker 2: the Hollywood elite, they think they're living in Nazi Germany 385 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:44,160 Speaker 2: and those enforcing the law are guilty of gross human 386 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 2: rights violations. Here is the beautiful but bonkers nationally portmand. 387 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:53,440 Speaker 10: What's going on in our country right now is absolutely 388 00:21:54,320 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 10: horrific with what the federal government, Trump's government, christinelm what 389 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 10: they're doing is really the worst of the worst of humanity. 390 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:07,200 Speaker 10: And then we also have the best of the best 391 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 10: of humanity for the way people are showing up for 392 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 10: each other in community and Americans coming out to support 393 00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:17,480 Speaker 10: each other and protect each other and fate against injustice. 394 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 2: So pretty, it's so stupid Americans coming out to support 395 00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:26,960 Speaker 2: each other. Really naturally, that's not what's happening. You've got 396 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 2: the lunatic left coming out to obstruct law enforcement and 397 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:36,920 Speaker 2: to protect criminals from deportation. We're not talking about peaceful 398 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:43,879 Speaker 2: protests here, We're talking about obstructing law enforcement, attacking law enforcement. 399 00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 2: But again the facts are lost on the Hollywood darlings. 400 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:52,119 Speaker 2: Here's Olivia Wilde, who is allegedly an actress. Here she 401 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:54,359 Speaker 2: emotes wildly. 402 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:58,240 Speaker 11: The world is hurting right now, and this country is 403 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:03,239 Speaker 11: hurting and it's appalling. I'm appalled, I'm sickond and we 404 00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:06,080 Speaker 11: can't go another day just sort of accepting this as 405 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 11: our new norm. It's outrageous. People are being murdered, and 406 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,439 Speaker 11: I don't want to normalize seeing people being murdered on 407 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:14,480 Speaker 11: the internet, on film. 408 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 2: It's hideous. 409 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:19,679 Speaker 11: And so if we can do anything out here to 410 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 11: support the movement to cast ice out, to delegitimize this 411 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:31,760 Speaker 11: unbelievably criminal organization, then that's what we should be doing. 412 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:33,000 Speaker 11: So I'm proud to wear them. 413 00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:37,480 Speaker 2: And here is Chris Kumo, looking like he hasn't slept 414 00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:40,879 Speaker 2: or showered for days. And according to the Pharmacy and 415 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:43,920 Speaker 2: n Hack, it is the government that must back down, 416 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:50,440 Speaker 2: let the violent agitators and insurrectionists have their day. Great idea, Chris. 417 00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:53,920 Speaker 12: The video accounts show a very troubling episode that beg 418 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:58,399 Speaker 12: for accountability and de escalation, and it has to start 419 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 12: with the government. Okay, we have to start at the top. 420 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 12: These are the people who are charged with knowing how 421 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:12,600 Speaker 12: and insisting on the escalation, the hot talk, the constant threats, 422 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 12: the constant justification. It has to stop. We can't have 423 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:24,000 Speaker 12: government agents shooting and killing American citizens. 424 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 2: Let's bring in Newsweek's senior editor at Large and Article 425 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:32,920 Speaker 2: three Project Senior Council Josh Hammer. Josh Chris Comer argues 426 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:36,800 Speaker 2: that the de escalation must start at the top, that 427 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:41,720 Speaker 2: law enforcement government officials must back down. 428 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 13: Do you agree, reader, Last I checked, it wasn't the 429 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:50,640 Speaker 13: job of law enforcement to de escalate or back down. Rather, 430 00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 13: last time I checked, and I'm pretty confident in fact 431 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:56,119 Speaker 13: as a lawyer myself, it's the job of law enforcement 432 00:24:56,359 --> 00:25:00,040 Speaker 13: to await, yes, to enforce the law. It's literally in 433 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,880 Speaker 13: the name of law enforcements. But they that federal law 434 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 13: enforcement stops enforcing federal law. Federal law seasons to be 435 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:10,640 Speaker 13: taking seriously. But you know, Rita, this is this is 436 00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 13: so evocative of some of the worst moments in American history. 437 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,120 Speaker 13: Look I'm born in Abraham Lincoln's birthday. I think about 438 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 13: the American Civil War a lot, probably more often, frankly 439 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 13: than I should. When we look at what some of 440 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:28,360 Speaker 13: today's leading provocateurs, these Minnesota anarchiss insurrectionists, who have been 441 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:31,880 Speaker 13: essentially trying to serve the passions of the anti ICE 442 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:35,200 Speaker 13: demagoguery there, people like Tim Walls and Keith Ellison and 443 00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:38,639 Speaker 13: Jacob Fry. I was listening to Keith Ellis and the 444 00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:42,960 Speaker 13: Attorney General of Minnesota. He was reading off his complaints 445 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:45,439 Speaker 13: from this lawsuit that the State of Minnesota has filed 446 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:48,800 Speaker 13: against DHS and ICE alongside the City of Minneapolis. There, 447 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:52,359 Speaker 13: and he was saying, how the Tenth Amendment and states rights, 448 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 13: the federal government does not belong here. And I'm sitting 449 00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 13: there thinking to myself, Man, if you took this Muslim 450 00:25:57,800 --> 00:25:59,960 Speaker 13: guy from Minnesota and you put on a thick Southern accent, 451 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:03,320 Speaker 13: the ten Amendment states rods, the federal government does not 452 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:06,359 Speaker 13: belong here, It's like, my God, like, we literally fought 453 00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 13: a civil war over this. I mean, this is literally 454 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:12,920 Speaker 13: just nineteen forties or eighteen forties, eighteen fifties era anti 455 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:16,320 Speaker 13: Bellum Southern secessionary fervor. I mean, this is the ghost 456 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:20,360 Speaker 13: of John C. Calhoun, Jefferson Davis, Stonewall Jackson. They don't 457 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,080 Speaker 13: see it that way, but that's literally exactly what it is. 458 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:26,560 Speaker 13: So look, you know, on the one hand, Minnesota looks 459 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,399 Speaker 13: like a failed state, and certainly, on the one hand, 460 00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:31,879 Speaker 13: as an economic conservative, I don't necessarily want to waste 461 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 13: resources trying to rehabilitate this clearly clearly failed boondog will say. 462 00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 13: On the other hand, on the other hand, the unmitigated 463 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:42,119 Speaker 13: supremacy of federal law, which by the way, is a 464 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 13: constitutionally required proposition under Article six of the Constitution. That's 465 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 13: the supremacy clause its constitutions required. And oh yeah, as 466 00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 13: I said, we literally fought a civil war. Over six 467 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,600 Speaker 13: hundred thousand Americans died, They paid the ultimate sacrifice who 468 00:26:55,680 --> 00:27:00,240 Speaker 13: established the timeless principle that federal law is supreme in 469 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:03,280 Speaker 13: this country. And now it's on the trumdministration to enforce that, 470 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:05,960 Speaker 13: to enforce the lessons of Abraham Lincoln not to bow 471 00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:08,720 Speaker 13: on the face of the dollar in Chris Cuomo and 472 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:10,119 Speaker 13: various other nikompoops like. 473 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 2: That, Josh, it is curious that Ice is operating across America, 474 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 2: but it's just in a select few blue cities, often 475 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 2: riddled with fraud and crime, where this sort of violence, 476 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:28,200 Speaker 2: this sort of uprising is occurring. Tell me about this 477 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:33,879 Speaker 2: latest case we know about this man who was shot dead. 478 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:37,520 Speaker 2: He came to this protest with a loaded gun, and 479 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:40,639 Speaker 2: he had a fair amount of ammunition with him. He 480 00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:45,200 Speaker 2: had a license to carry that gun. Who would come 481 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:48,480 Speaker 2: to a protest with a loaded gun knowing you're going 482 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:50,919 Speaker 2: to have contact with law enforcement. 483 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 13: Yeah, just not a very smart thing to do, Okay. 484 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:58,119 Speaker 13: I think that's kind of the underesteeming the sanctuary. I 485 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 13: say that, by the way, as someone who was a concer, 486 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:03,200 Speaker 13: he'll carry holder. I carry a firearm essentially every single 487 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:06,120 Speaker 13: day in my life. But if hypothetically, if I were 488 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:08,880 Speaker 13: so inclined to go here in the United States, here 489 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:11,359 Speaker 13: in Florida where I live, if I were hypothetically inclined 490 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:13,840 Speaker 13: to go to some to go to some protests, I 491 00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:18,159 Speaker 13: probably would think twice about bringing lethal force, especially in 492 00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:22,160 Speaker 13: a situation in a boiling pot like this. I mean, 493 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 13: this is happening, what two weeks after the after the 494 00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:27,119 Speaker 13: death of Renee Good, after she was after she was 495 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 13: shouted at by her by her partner, Drive Baby drive, 496 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 13: you know, leading this this isation, John van Ross to 497 00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:34,360 Speaker 13: fire shots. The guy who, by the way, was sent 498 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:36,320 Speaker 13: to the hospital. A lot of people forgot that detail 499 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 13: that the agent and the in the Renee Good case 500 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 13: went to the hospital actually because he had he had 501 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:43,240 Speaker 13: some internal bleeding and some hip damage there. He was 502 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:46,960 Speaker 13: subsequently released there. This is dangerous stuff. This is dangerous stuff. 503 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,120 Speaker 13: And you know exactly what you were doing if you 504 00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 13: if you are bringing lethal weaponry to a government protest, 505 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 13: let alone a protest in any situation, nothing like that. 506 00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 13: Bye bye. By all accounts, by all account bas and 507 00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 13: everything that I have read, the individual here, Alex pretty 508 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:04,200 Speaker 13: was told numerous times to stop what he was doing, 509 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 13: to turn over his firearmy, and just to follow orders, 510 00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:11,479 Speaker 13: more generally to follow the federal agent's orders there. He 511 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 13: refused to do that, and tragically, that's why he's no. 512 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 2: Longer with us. Because we're not talking just about protests here, 513 00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 2: peaceful protests, robust protests. We're talking about active obstruction of 514 00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:29,480 Speaker 2: law enforcement. We're talking about aggressive actions. It's a very 515 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:33,960 Speaker 2: different phenomenon to just showing up somewhere and protesting against 516 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:36,720 Speaker 2: what's happening because you don't agree with it. Now. You 517 00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 2: mentioned you've got to concealed carry license, and from what 518 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:43,360 Speaker 2: I understand, anyone who has one of those is told 519 00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:47,760 Speaker 2: repeatedly through every step of the process, do not engage 520 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:51,600 Speaker 2: with police if you're carrying, not aggressively, not violently. You've 521 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 2: just got to be hyper alert if you are carrying 522 00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:57,680 Speaker 2: a loaded gun and you come in contact with police, 523 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 2: because of course they are on high themselves. 524 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:04,600 Speaker 13: Oh yeah, and you know it's not just police, but 525 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 13: it's also just all federal agents. All federal property are 526 00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 13: generally speaking here. Look, I mean you go to any 527 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:13,880 Speaker 13: airport here and pretty much any airport in the United States, 528 00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 13: there there's a large sign from TSA, which does the 529 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 13: airport screenings, that says, make sure you're not carrying a 530 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 13: weapon when you go through the melitecher there. There is 531 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,720 Speaker 13: a glaringly obvious sign in every airport. It's also federal 532 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 13: court rooms. Look, I mean, I'm a lawyer. I know 533 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:29,400 Speaker 13: a bunch of judges. So I think it was about 534 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:30,960 Speaker 13: a year and a half ago or so, I got 535 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:33,920 Speaker 13: lunch with a federal judge here in Miami with him 536 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 13: and his law clerks there, and I left my firearm 537 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 13: at home because I'm not going to bring a gun 538 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 13: into a federal courthouse where there are US marshals. It's 539 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:43,520 Speaker 13: called common sense. I mean, we have a Second Amendment 540 00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 13: in this country, and thank God for that. I'm a 541 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:47,240 Speaker 13: huge proponent of the Second Amendment. We also have a 542 00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 13: thing between the ears here and there not getting called 543 00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 13: common sense, and it's in common upon all of us 544 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 13: to not leave our common sense at home, no matter 545 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,280 Speaker 13: how much people like Tim Walls and Keith Ellison and 546 00:30:57,320 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 13: Jiggle Fry are trying to stir up the passions of 547 00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:00,720 Speaker 13: the deep impressionable. 548 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:06,480 Speaker 2: I played a clip of Tim Wolves earlier. His comments 549 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 2: just so reckless you could argue inciting violence. Here is 550 00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:16,160 Speaker 2: another Democrat, Mark Kelly, saying that the agitator who was 551 00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 2: shot dead here was killed for no reason whatsoever. 552 00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 14: Hey, everybody has Senator Mark Kelly. 553 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 12: Hay. 554 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 14: I watched that video of Minneapolis today, probably watched it 555 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 14: a dozen times. Pretty obvious that this man was shot 556 00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 14: dead in the street for no reason. 557 00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:42,840 Speaker 2: Where is the responsibility just to take a minute and 558 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:46,960 Speaker 2: let the process take place. Let's have an investigation to 559 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:50,680 Speaker 2: see precisely what happened and I've seen that video multiple 560 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 2: times myself, and how he could come to the conclusion 561 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:57,880 Speaker 2: that that man was shot for no reason whatsoever, was 562 00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:02,360 Speaker 2: just some sort of cold blooded murder without provocation. It 563 00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 2: is incredible to me, Josh, So it's incredible. 564 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 13: And again, Rito, we just saw this. I mean to me, 565 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:11,280 Speaker 13: this is the most remarkable part of all this there 566 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:15,080 Speaker 13: is that we just saw this play out like literally 567 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:17,720 Speaker 13: two weeks ago. So immediately when Renee Good was killed 568 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:20,440 Speaker 13: by Johnathan Rossi the ice station there, they said, oh 569 00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:23,160 Speaker 13: my god, it's murdering cold blood. She's trying to swerve 570 00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:24,720 Speaker 13: to get away from the video. But then O wait, 571 00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:27,640 Speaker 13: we saw a second camera angle. We saw the cars 572 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:30,479 Speaker 13: actually going right at john thrustigation. O wait, then we 573 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:32,960 Speaker 13: find out that there was actually a hospital record of 574 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:35,880 Speaker 13: the agent being admitted to the hospital because he was 575 00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:38,320 Speaker 13: hit and he had internal bleeding around his waist and 576 00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 13: hit Perrier there. Then O wait, we saw the video 577 00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:43,880 Speaker 13: of the partner saying drive baby, drive instact in there. 578 00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 13: So these things do take time to actually learn all 579 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,880 Speaker 13: of the details of the situation there. And I think 580 00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:51,960 Speaker 13: back to those to those first moments after the Renee 581 00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:55,040 Speaker 13: Good shooting. You had zoramm Donnie AOC and saying that 582 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:57,400 Speaker 13: she was murdered. Renee Goo was murdered. That's what Mark 583 00:32:57,480 --> 00:32:59,880 Speaker 13: Kelly's saying here too about Alex Pray, that this is 584 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,080 Speaker 13: murder and cold blood on the streets of America. There 585 00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 13: have you people not learned your lesson? What are you 586 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:08,560 Speaker 13: trying to do? I mean, I mean, ironically, these democrats 587 00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:12,440 Speaker 13: like Mark Kelly, they're claiming they're purporting to care about 588 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 13: Americans feelings there actually, do you know what the single 589 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:19,200 Speaker 13: best thing, the single best thing to protect the health, safety, 590 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:22,000 Speaker 13: and security, prosperity and flourishing of the American people to 591 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 13: have law enforcements do their job. It's not like they're 592 00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 13: going Dora door trying to find the guy who's picking 593 00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 13: strawberries down the local farm. They're going Dora door trying 594 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 13: above all to find people like sex offenders and child 595 00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:38,800 Speaker 13: sex traffickers and gang beggers and murderers and rapists and 596 00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:41,600 Speaker 13: transnational criminals. That's what they're trying to do. So if 597 00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:43,480 Speaker 13: you want the American people to be safe, which if 598 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:45,440 Speaker 13: you take Mark Kelly at his word, and you probably shouldn't, 599 00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:47,200 Speaker 13: we were taken a word. That's what he seems to 600 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,120 Speaker 13: want there, then you should support Ice to the t. 601 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 13: Final note on this, I have to know that Mark 602 00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:53,800 Speaker 13: Kelly is from a very interesting state when it comes 603 00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:57,240 Speaker 13: to the whole immigration conversation. He's from Arizona, a safe that, 604 00:33:57,280 --> 00:34:00,000 Speaker 13: alongside Texas, has really kind of ground zero for America's 605 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:03,320 Speaker 13: ever roiling immigration wars. Does Mark Kelly think that it 606 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 13: is good politics there in the state of Arizona to 607 00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:09,960 Speaker 13: be going this soft, this soft on immigration for us 608 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:11,319 Speaker 13: and there, I think he's going to be in for 609 00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:13,719 Speaker 13: a very very rude awakening when it comes to his 610 00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 13: senatorial reelection if he keeps us up. 611 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:21,640 Speaker 2: Frankly, now, we've heard plenty of reckless metric from Democrats, 612 00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:25,400 Speaker 2: some of them arguably inciting violence, but the influencers are 613 00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:28,920 Speaker 2: also doing their big josh. Here is one encouraging is 614 00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:33,080 Speaker 2: hundreds of thousands of followers to learn how to shoot guns. 615 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:36,600 Speaker 15: You all need to be arming yourselves right now. You 616 00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:38,279 Speaker 15: all need to learn how to shoot guns. You all 617 00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 15: need to learn how to protect yourselves. You guys need 618 00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 15: to learn what to do in a situation where you 619 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 15: get detained and how to help your friends when they 620 00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:48,399 Speaker 15: are getting detained. You all need to become aware of 621 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:52,400 Speaker 15: what's happening right now and how there is no protesting 622 00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 15: this without some sort of militant action. 623 00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 2: There you go, there's no so protesting this without some 624 00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:06,400 Speaker 2: sort of militant action. And the coverage of this story, 625 00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:09,560 Speaker 2: I've got to tell you globally is as you would expect, 626 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:14,920 Speaker 2: is the regurgitation of the MSNBCCNN line that this was 627 00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:21,240 Speaker 2: just completely unjustified. These are peaceful protesters that are being 628 00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:24,600 Speaker 2: shot in cold blood. But there you get an idea 629 00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:29,040 Speaker 2: of the messaging that some of these activists are receiving, 630 00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:32,720 Speaker 2: and sadly some of them are listening Josh and turning 631 00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:36,520 Speaker 2: up to a violent protest with a loaded gun. 632 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:41,840 Speaker 13: These people like that so called influencer I've not heard remembered. 633 00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:46,480 Speaker 13: Apparently he's an influencer. They're trying to get people killed. Okay, 634 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 13: that is literally what they are trying to do. They're 635 00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:52,000 Speaker 13: trying to stir up the passions and people like Renee 636 00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:54,040 Speaker 13: Good and people like Alex Pray. They're trying to put 637 00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:57,360 Speaker 13: them out there as Canon fighter, as Canon fighter for 638 00:35:57,440 --> 00:36:00,279 Speaker 13: what I mean to accomplish, what is out there make 639 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:03,319 Speaker 13: people angrier and angrier against Ice. By the way, it's 640 00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:05,080 Speaker 13: actually not even working. There was a poll from the 641 00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:07,439 Speaker 13: New York Times Siena College when one of our most 642 00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:10,279 Speaker 13: reputable pollsters the United States there and they did it 643 00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:13,040 Speaker 13: that a lot of questions, massive survey just last week, 644 00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:15,640 Speaker 13: and one of the questions was approved disapprove of Donald 645 00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:21,279 Speaker 13: Trump's handling of immigration enforcements fifty to forty seven net approval. So, 646 00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:25,120 Speaker 13: despite all of this, despite all the information operation from 647 00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:28,040 Speaker 13: ms NOW and CNN and all the usual suspects there, 648 00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:31,560 Speaker 13: the American people still still by and large support Donald 649 00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:35,320 Speaker 13: Trump's immigration agenda. By the way, Hispanics were actually barely 650 00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:38,000 Speaker 13: underwater by like ten points or maybe even just under 651 00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:40,239 Speaker 13: that in that New York Times Siena College bowl there. 652 00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:42,680 Speaker 13: So the notion that this is a huge political liability 653 00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:45,759 Speaker 13: for the trumpministration, I think is just total gobbledybook with 654 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:49,080 Speaker 13: no semblance in reality there. So you're not really going 655 00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:52,560 Speaker 13: to score political points. What are you trying to do? Like, 656 00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:55,120 Speaker 13: what is the goal here other than to get people 657 00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:58,080 Speaker 13: killed on both sides of the standoff, innocent people who 658 00:36:58,080 --> 00:36:59,680 Speaker 13: are going to be riled up to try to do 659 00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:02,040 Speaker 13: thequote unquote right thing there where you're trying to get 660 00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:04,759 Speaker 13: more Ice agents killed as well, and ultimately read that 661 00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:07,239 Speaker 13: ultimate ability is where I come down to me. 662 00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:07,799 Speaker 11: It is. 663 00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 13: There in the radical left. To be a left that's 664 00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:14,800 Speaker 13: going back to the French Revolution means that you believe 665 00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:17,880 Speaker 13: to some extent in violence. We saw that with the 666 00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:19,759 Speaker 13: murder of my friend Charlie Kirk. We've seen it with 667 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:22,480 Speaker 13: the multiple attempts of assassination on Donald Trump's life. We 668 00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:25,799 Speaker 13: saw with the assassination of the Night Healthcare CEO from 669 00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:29,879 Speaker 13: this socialized medicine fanatic. We see it over and over 670 00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:32,720 Speaker 13: and over again. There they are willing able and times 671 00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:36,799 Speaker 13: eager to resort to violence, and it's horrific, horrific stuff there. 672 00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:38,960 Speaker 13: And frankly, that above balls what we're seeing playing out 673 00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:42,200 Speaker 13: here along with this neo Confederates insurrection behavior that ultimately 674 00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:44,880 Speaker 13: must be stomped and crushed by the sheer might enforce 675 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:45,920 Speaker 13: of federal law enforcement. 676 00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:52,080 Speaker 2: Now, we've had a bunch of actors in Stained Flauencer's 677 00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:56,160 Speaker 2: activists emoting wildly about what's happening in Minneapolis, But we 678 00:37:56,200 --> 00:38:01,040 Speaker 2: cannot forget Steve Kerr, the Golden State Larrior's head coach, 679 00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:05,880 Speaker 2: has spoken of his love for Minnesota, and he's decried 680 00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:09,120 Speaker 2: the misinformation in the media about what's happening in the 681 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:13,760 Speaker 2: state of Minnesota. I think I agree with him about that, Josh, 682 00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:16,480 Speaker 2: probably not for the same reasons. But there has been 683 00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 2: so much misinformation. You talked about what happened two weeks 684 00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:23,960 Speaker 2: ago with Renee Good, what's happening right now with his 685 00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:28,319 Speaker 2: latest shooting. But the amount of misinformation we saw in 686 00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:32,000 Speaker 2: the past week about a five year old that was 687 00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:38,920 Speaker 2: supposedly snatched by ice was astonishing, even by the standards 688 00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:42,560 Speaker 2: we've come to us to sadly, except Josh tell us 689 00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:44,240 Speaker 2: what really happened in this case. 690 00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:48,279 Speaker 13: So first of all, you know, Steve Kerr is something 691 00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:50,239 Speaker 13: of a said keep I mean, I remember watching this 692 00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:52,480 Speaker 13: guy back in nineteen nineties, back when he was a 693 00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:55,640 Speaker 13: sharpshooter for the Chicago Bulls. Steve Kerr was Michael Jordan's 694 00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:57,960 Speaker 13: team antem many of those Chicago Bulls. Seems there he 695 00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:00,279 Speaker 13: had a beautiful jump shot. This guy is an is 696 00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:03,480 Speaker 13: it totally bonkers out to left field? Left this it 697 00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:05,359 Speaker 13: was either his father or someone very close to him, 698 00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:08,480 Speaker 13: Rita who was killed and a hes Bollah terrorst attack 699 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:11,319 Speaker 13: in Lebanon in the early nineteen eighties and to this 700 00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:13,960 Speaker 13: day Steve Kerr is one of the biggest cheerleaders of 701 00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:16,960 Speaker 13: the anti Israel Palestinian Arab caused it, which is just 702 00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:19,279 Speaker 13: it makes your mind just want to explode. There, So 703 00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:22,360 Speaker 13: here he is yet again there and frankly, I think 704 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:24,440 Speaker 13: back to that line from Laura Ingram so many years 705 00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:26,799 Speaker 13: ago talking about Lebron James, which is just shut up 706 00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:29,120 Speaker 13: and dribble, or in this case of Steve's Kurr, shut 707 00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:31,000 Speaker 13: up in coach. He's actually very good coach, by the way, 708 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:32,960 Speaker 13: if he stuck to that, maybe he would have frankly, 709 00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:35,400 Speaker 13: a lot more success there in our conversations like this, 710 00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:38,319 Speaker 13: look this misinformation about this five year old boy there, 711 00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:40,239 Speaker 13: that's not what happened. They were not going after the 712 00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:42,320 Speaker 13: five year old boy. They were going after the actual 713 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:44,359 Speaker 13: father there. The five year old boy was essentially there 714 00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:46,239 Speaker 13: right in the way there. But that's what they do. 715 00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:49,320 Speaker 13: They take the tiniest, tiniest morsel of connection to the 716 00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:52,080 Speaker 13: story and they run with it in an entirely different direction, 717 00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:54,640 Speaker 13: because again, the ultimate goal here is not to deliver 718 00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:58,080 Speaker 13: the truth. It is to stir the passions, as demagogues 719 00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:00,399 Speaker 13: have been doing for thousands of years there. It turns 720 00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:03,799 Speaker 13: out that today one of the biggest places where these 721 00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:07,000 Speaker 13: passions are unleashed is on federal law enforcement. So reader, 722 00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:10,040 Speaker 13: like many Americans, I pray, I really do pray for 723 00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:13,680 Speaker 13: the health and safety and efficacy of this nation's federal 724 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:16,600 Speaker 13: law enforcement apprians because they are UNDERSEGD now, they are 725 00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:20,120 Speaker 13: absolutely underseiegs there. They need our support, they need our prayers, 726 00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:23,359 Speaker 13: and ultimately they need the courage to do their job 727 00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:25,560 Speaker 13: because the rule of law depends on Without the rule 728 00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:28,520 Speaker 13: of law, there is no society, there is no freedom, 729 00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:29,800 Speaker 13: there is no liberty, There's nothing. 730 00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:34,160 Speaker 2: Josh Amma, thank you so much for your time tonight. 731 00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:38,680 Speaker 2: Thank you still to come. Glen Beckham is said to 732 00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:43,000 Speaker 2: follow in Prince Harry's footsteps with a tell memoir exposing 733 00:40:43,080 --> 00:41:00,960 Speaker 2: his family. Kinsisco Field has the details. Welcome joining me now, 734 00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:05,560 Speaker 2: celebrity and royal commentator and host of Kinsey Schofield Unfiltered 735 00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:09,839 Speaker 2: Kinsey Schofield. Let's start with David and Victoria Beckham. They 736 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:15,160 Speaker 2: are reportedly in crisis mode amid speculation their eldest son, Brooklyn, 737 00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:19,520 Speaker 2: is preparing to publish a tell all biography exposing his 738 00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:25,960 Speaker 2: allegedly greedy and self obsessed parents. Beckham biographer Tom Bauer 739 00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:29,239 Speaker 2: has written in The Daily Mail Brooklyn might be a 740 00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:32,480 Speaker 2: spoiled brat, but when it comes to sympathy, the twenty 741 00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:35,839 Speaker 2: six year old winds hands down. If there were ever 742 00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:40,120 Speaker 2: a victim of rapacious parents and a dysfunctional family, it's 743 00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:45,520 Speaker 2: the Beckham's eldest son, Wow Kinsey. This sounds appalling, and 744 00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:47,640 Speaker 2: yet I can't look away. 745 00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:51,400 Speaker 9: And Tom Bauer always has his hands exactly where we 746 00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:54,440 Speaker 9: want it, whether it's Harry and Megan drama are the Beckhams, Tom. 747 00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:55,560 Speaker 7: Bauer is the guy. 748 00:41:55,960 --> 00:41:58,520 Speaker 9: I don't doubt that growing up in the Beckham household 749 00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:00,720 Speaker 9: came with pressure, but I have a heart time extending 750 00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:04,800 Speaker 9: real sympathy to someone who has been handed every possible advantage. 751 00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:07,719 Speaker 9: Brooklyn has had to work for very little, married into 752 00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:11,719 Speaker 9: a billionaire family, and will never face genuine financial insecurity. 753 00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:14,440 Speaker 9: At some point, we need to reserve our empathy for 754 00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:18,160 Speaker 9: real world struggles, not extremely privileged adults who resent the 755 00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:22,200 Speaker 9: very lives their parents built for them. I think David 756 00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:26,920 Speaker 9: and Victoria understand the business, the stakes, and the long game. Brooklyn, 757 00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:29,359 Speaker 9: frankly is still figuring out who he is, and let's 758 00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:36,320 Speaker 9: hope it's not a chef okay. 759 00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:38,560 Speaker 2: Or a photographer because that photography book, Yeah, that ain't 760 00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:44,360 Speaker 2: a work of genius. But I have heard other commentators, 761 00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:49,239 Speaker 2: people who are normally trusted, say that all is not 762 00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:52,400 Speaker 2: what it seems with David and Victoria Beckham. They have 763 00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:58,040 Speaker 2: crafted this public image that's very masterful, the very likable, relatable, 764 00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:01,799 Speaker 2: but it's not authentic. What do you say to that? 765 00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:04,640 Speaker 2: I mean, I remember the whole Rebecca Lose thing, the 766 00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:08,440 Speaker 2: fact that David was sleeping with the nanny and Victoria 767 00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:11,480 Speaker 2: just look the other way and it wasn't an isolated incident, 768 00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:14,840 Speaker 2: and then it makes you question the whole persona, the 769 00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:18,520 Speaker 2: whole image they put out, whether there's anything real about it. 770 00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:22,800 Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean Tom Bower wrote a really great book 771 00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:26,399 Speaker 9: about your point right there, about how much so much 772 00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:29,040 Speaker 9: of it is theater, so much of it is highly choreographed, 773 00:43:29,080 --> 00:43:32,000 Speaker 9: and how hateful they could be towards each other in 774 00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:35,280 Speaker 9: this pursuit for fame, celebrity and money. 775 00:43:36,200 --> 00:43:40,000 Speaker 7: But I'm obsessed with it. I can't not love them. 776 00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:42,960 Speaker 7: I don't know, there's something that the ambition in them. 777 00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:43,839 Speaker 7: I admire it. 778 00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:47,400 Speaker 9: I admire the never complain, never explain they continue to 779 00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:47,960 Speaker 9: show up. 780 00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:49,440 Speaker 7: I admire the commitment. 781 00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:56,120 Speaker 2: Reader, Well, yeah, it's entertaining. I've got to say they 782 00:43:56,600 --> 00:44:00,440 Speaker 2: do make good reality TV, much better than Megan and Harry, 783 00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:04,520 Speaker 2: who will talk about shortly now. Prominent Hollywood stars have 784 00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:08,560 Speaker 2: used the Sundance Film Festival to condemn the shooting of 785 00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:13,560 Speaker 2: Alex Pretty by ice agents in Minnesota. One of these actresses, 786 00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:18,640 Speaker 2: Olivia Wilde. I featured her earlier a set that she 787 00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:22,239 Speaker 2: was appalled she was wearing an Ice out badge. Let's 788 00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:23,080 Speaker 2: hear from her again. 789 00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:27,800 Speaker 11: World is hurting right now, and this country is hurting 790 00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:32,680 Speaker 11: and it's appalling. I'm appalled, I'm sickond and we can't 791 00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:35,359 Speaker 11: go another day. Just sort of accepting this as our 792 00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:37,760 Speaker 11: new norm. It's it's outrageous people are being murdered. 793 00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:43,840 Speaker 2: Natalie Portman also had a lot to say, Kinsey. 794 00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:48,160 Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean there is something surreal about condemning Ice 795 00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:52,360 Speaker 9: whilst standing at an elite Sundance event surrounded by. 796 00:44:52,280 --> 00:44:53,600 Speaker 7: Wealth and status. 797 00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:57,439 Speaker 9: That disconnect is why critics see moments like this as 798 00:44:57,560 --> 00:45:00,440 Speaker 9: virtue signaling rather than meaningful out vocacy. 799 00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:02,920 Speaker 7: I would take Olivia while much more. 800 00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:06,200 Speaker 9: Seriously if she said, and that's why I've donated this 801 00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:08,480 Speaker 9: amount of money to the victim's family, but you never 802 00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:12,600 Speaker 9: hear you never hear that, but yes. Natalie Portman also 803 00:45:12,680 --> 00:45:15,680 Speaker 9: said that while they were at Sundance, she felt like 804 00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:19,520 Speaker 9: she was seeing beauty from Americans. They're showing up for 805 00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:22,280 Speaker 9: each other, protecting each other, and fighting for their freedom. 806 00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:24,839 Speaker 9: She said, it's a bittersweet moment to celebrate something we're 807 00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:29,440 Speaker 9: so proud of on the backdrop of our nation and pain. 808 00:45:29,640 --> 00:45:33,000 Speaker 7: So I don't know. It's a double edged sword. Acknowledge it. 809 00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:39,759 Speaker 2: They're so desperately out of touch. It really is kind 810 00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:43,759 Speaker 2: of comic cool, but it is also pathetic because you 811 00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:46,319 Speaker 2: never hear them come out and say anything when you 812 00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:49,719 Speaker 2: have innocent people slaughtered by people who are in the 813 00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:52,520 Speaker 2: country illegally. They say nothing about the fact that the 814 00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:55,880 Speaker 2: murder rate in the US dropped by around twenty percent 815 00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:59,560 Speaker 2: last year, the biggest drop in a single year. That 816 00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:03,799 Speaker 2: care about that. All they care about is this sort 817 00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:08,279 Speaker 2: of division and regurgitating the hard lefts talking points and 818 00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:13,520 Speaker 2: pretending they're somehow enlightened and kind. I mean, give me 819 00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:16,000 Speaker 2: a break. I've got very little patience for them, and 820 00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:20,840 Speaker 2: very little patience for Kristen Stewart and other actress who's 821 00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:24,920 Speaker 2: gone on an insane anti Trump rant saying she wants 822 00:46:24,960 --> 00:46:28,200 Speaker 2: to make movies in Europe then shove them down the 823 00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:34,200 Speaker 2: throats of the American people because reality is breaking under Trump. Kinsey, 824 00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:37,319 Speaker 2: she is about the worst actress I think that's come 825 00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:40,759 Speaker 2: out of Hollywood in the last two decades. But tell 826 00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:43,920 Speaker 2: me about this new political activism from. 827 00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:45,960 Speaker 7: Her, I mean, is it new? 828 00:46:46,160 --> 00:46:49,600 Speaker 9: Every time she doesn't wear pants, I'm assuming she's trying 829 00:46:49,600 --> 00:46:52,960 Speaker 9: to make some form of a political statement. But Christian 830 00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:56,719 Speaker 9: Stewart preaching morality is a tough sell for audiences who 831 00:46:56,760 --> 00:46:59,719 Speaker 9: remember her very public controversies. This is the same woman 832 00:46:59,760 --> 00:47:04,400 Speaker 9: that she on Robert Pattinson with her married director in 833 00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:07,400 Speaker 9: front of the entire world. People are done being lectured 834 00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:10,040 Speaker 9: by Hollywood, and the industry is now paying the price 835 00:47:10,080 --> 00:47:11,040 Speaker 9: for that disconnect. 836 00:47:11,360 --> 00:47:12,640 Speaker 7: A lot of them are unemployed. 837 00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:15,840 Speaker 9: We talk a lot about how there's no work here 838 00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:18,520 Speaker 9: for entertainers thanks to Gavin Newsome. 839 00:47:18,560 --> 00:47:20,560 Speaker 7: But it's also this lecturing right here. 840 00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:23,360 Speaker 9: People want an escape, they want to get away, and 841 00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:26,200 Speaker 9: they're tired of being told about how awful the world 842 00:47:26,280 --> 00:47:29,160 Speaker 9: is by these people in Chanel that are living their 843 00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:31,960 Speaker 9: best lives. 844 00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:36,919 Speaker 2: And it's just so vacuous. That's the problem. If these 845 00:47:36,960 --> 00:47:39,600 Speaker 2: were people who had taken the time to be fully 846 00:47:39,640 --> 00:47:43,200 Speaker 2: informed about an issue, and we're talking from a position 847 00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:47,480 Speaker 2: of deep knowledge, they need go Okay, there's at least 848 00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:53,160 Speaker 2: something we're learning here, but it's always so vacuous and pointless. Now. 849 00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:56,960 Speaker 2: Prince Harry Megan Mikael also appeared at sun Dance to 850 00:47:56,960 --> 00:48:00,960 Speaker 2: promote their latest documentary, Cookie Queens, which follows the story 851 00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:05,719 Speaker 2: of four determined girl scouts as they navigate the multimillion 852 00:48:05,800 --> 00:48:09,480 Speaker 2: dollar business of cookie sALS. Kid See the doco is 853 00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:11,920 Speaker 2: already turning out to be a bit of a flop. 854 00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:15,200 Speaker 2: It failed to sell out and fill the theater even 855 00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:18,120 Speaker 2: at the Festival's that's not a good sign. 856 00:48:18,960 --> 00:48:19,839 Speaker 7: It's not a good sign. 857 00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:23,080 Speaker 9: You'd imagine that celebrities would be crawling, you know, so 858 00:48:23,239 --> 00:48:26,600 Speaker 9: excited about being associated with royals in some way, shape 859 00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:28,279 Speaker 9: or form, but that just wasn't the case. Is the 860 00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:31,280 Speaker 9: lights went low and the film began roughly one hundred 861 00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:33,320 Speaker 9: and fifty unoccupied seats. 862 00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:34,600 Speaker 7: Scattered throughout the theater. 863 00:48:35,239 --> 00:48:39,319 Speaker 9: Page six reports that weightlisters, which are you know, the nobodies, 864 00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:43,319 Speaker 9: slowly filled empty places that were reserved for the high 865 00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:48,520 Speaker 9: profile Sun Dance passholders, who mostly ignored the visiting royals 866 00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:50,759 Speaker 9: the night before. Just to give you an idea, the 867 00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:53,640 Speaker 9: same theater was so packed for the invite premiere that 868 00:48:53,719 --> 00:48:56,880 Speaker 9: one hundred ticket holders were turned away. So it's not 869 00:48:56,960 --> 00:48:59,200 Speaker 9: a good look. But I we do love girl Scouts. 870 00:48:59,480 --> 00:49:01,840 Speaker 9: We APOLOGI Jasen Megan Mirkle's gotten involved with them.

So you know, this stuker seems 873 00:49:07,719 --> 00:49:11,879 Speaker 2: to be have a couple of positives.

Some people are 883 00:49:44,960 --> 00:49:48,480 Speaker 9: challenging whether Dylan earned their spot for their talent or 884 00:49:48,680 --> 00:49:52,000 Speaker 9: was given the opportunity based on their infamy. Dylan believes 885 00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:55,360 Speaker 9: they have the talent.
