Not only does he. 24 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:37,480 Speaker 2: Have responsibility as the leader of this inept government, but 25 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 2: it was his department that directly instructed the Home Affairs 26 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 2: Department to find a way to stop the deportation of 27 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:49,720 Speaker 2: New Zealand citizens who had lived in Australia for many years. 28 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 2: This was at the behest of former New Zealand Prime 29 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:55,720 Speaker 2: ministerist into Ard Dern. She had made the same requests 30 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:59,639 Speaker 2: of the coalition government and been rightly ignored, but now 31 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 2: laborer in power. Sky News was first report on the 32 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 2: weekend that the PM's department's instruction came prior to the 33 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 2: drafting of Immigration Minister Andrew Giles's Direction ninety nine in 34 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 2: January twenty twenty three, which Labor is scrambling to revise 35 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 2: this week even they realize what a mess up this 36 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:26,360 Speaker 2: is now. We'll get back to the PM in a second, 37 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 2: But the Immigration Minister has again this week blamed his 38 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 2: department after admitting he falsely claimed criminals release from detention 39 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 2: were being monitored by drones.

Have a look 44 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 2: at how the Prime Minister responded to the news Andrew 45 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 2: Colonel broke on Sky News about his own department. 46 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 6: Andrew Clanel of Sky News has reported that following the 47 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 6: Prime Minister's meetings with Jacinta Adirn and prior to the 48 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 6: introduction of Direction ninety nine, the Prime Minister's Department directly 49 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 6: instructed the Home Affairs Department to attempt to find a 50 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 6: way to stop the deportation of so many New Zealand 51 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:26,760 Speaker 6: citizens and to quote fix the problem, Prime Minister, is 52 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 6: this true? 53 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 2: Sky News Occasionally occasionally don't get things right. 54 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 7: I know it'll come, usually tonight, usually during. 55 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: The day before it becomes dark, when truth sort of 56 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 1: gets darkened as the day goes. 57 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 2: On Sky after dark, truth gets darkened. Does he not 58 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 2: know Andrew Colonel's show Sunday A Gender is on in 59 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 2: the morning. It's eight am, Albert. I don't know what 60 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 2: parallel universe you inhabit, but eight am ain't dark and 61 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 2: as far as an amateur hour attacks against Sky News's 62 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 2: prime time lineup, Albow is showing yet again he's a 63 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:21,479 Speaker 2: student activist who's foiled his way up all the way 64 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 2: into the launch. Joining me now as senior Herald Sun 65 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 2: columnist Patrick Carlin and Patrick the PM's bizarro rant. There 66 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 2: does not distract anyone interested in this issue. They've made 67 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 2: a mess of this area, They've pledged to fix it. 68 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 2: They're going to be replacing Direction ninety nine in the 69 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 2: coming days. 70 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 8: Well, look, I think Rita, I think Greg Sheridan got 71 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 8: it right today in The Australian he talked about Andrew 72 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 8: Giles making an error every time he opens his mouth, 73 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:54,280 Speaker 8: and then the next time he opens his mouth he 74 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:56,720 Speaker 8: blamed somebody else for the error. And this has been 75 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 8: going on for weeks. It's put us in danger as 76 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 8: a community. I've never seen a minister struggle for so long, 77 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 8: and he really does need to be put out of 78 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:08,799 Speaker 8: his misery. But that's very interesting what's come out today. 79 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 8: In the last few days. The previous government pushed back 80 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 8: against New Zealand on changing these rules. It's because of 81 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 8: what happened in July twenty twenty two and Albo and 82 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,760 Speaker 8: Jacinda Adurn that actually led to this situation now, so 83 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:23,920 Speaker 8: it's bigger than we thought it. 84 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 5: Was, absolutely and. 85 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 2: New Zealand has been campaigning for that to happen for 86 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 2: some time. They don't want their criminals sent back to them. 87 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 2: I don't know why we would be trying to appease them. 88 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 2: It's New Zealand for for the love of God. Now 89 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 2: there's labor mistakes are obviously making some within the party nervous, 90 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:50,600 Speaker 2: nervous enough perhaps to leak stories against potential leadership rivals. 91 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 2: To Anthony ALBERIZI look at this one about NDIS Minister 92 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 2: Bill Shorten. 93 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,840 Speaker 5: Former leader Bill Shorten to Daily Telegraph. 94 00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 2: Reveals he's got his own personal speech writer, costing the 95 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:05,799 Speaker 2: taxpayer six hundred and twenty thousand dollars over two years. 96 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 5: This is a genuine story, but. 97 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 2: It's interesting the timing their source is interesting, and particularly 98 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 2: when you mean it's definitely a story that should be 99 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 2: told because this is a minister with a communications department. 100 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 2: Why does he need to be paying someone six hundred 101 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 2: and twenty thousand over two years to write speeches? I mean, 102 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 2: who's he speaking to the Hague? 103 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 8: You know the market rate for writers, don't you. Obviously, 104 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 8: given what we do, six hundred and twenty grand over 105 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 8: two years is pretty good going. 106 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:41,279 Speaker 5: How many speeches is he doing a day against that? 107 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 8: Bill Shorten, who is savvy, has sort of distanced himself 108 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 8: from it and sort of said, well, this has nothing 109 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 8: to do with me, but who's setting the market rate here? 110 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 8: It's an awful lot of money, absolutely, in an area 111 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 8: that is plagued with problems with the endis and everything 112 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,599 Speaker 8: else for somebody to be paid that amount of but 113 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 8: that sort of work just beggars below. 114 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 2: And he's got a communication, he's got people within his 115 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 2: own team who are capable of helping him with his speeches. 116 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 2: Wouldn't it be refreshing if a minister wrote his own speeches, 117 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 2: his own words. 118 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 8: That would never happen now, That would never happen. 119 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 2: Now to Victoria, where landlords are going to have to 120 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 2: install ceiling installation and energy effission heating system, whole raft 121 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 2: of new works. They will have to be undertaken to 122 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 2: meet new minimum standards to help improve rental conditions and 123 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 2: keep the electricity bills down for renters. The Victorian government 124 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 2: ministers are very excited to announce these changes. 125 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 9: We're here to announce today the launch of consultation on 126 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 9: some new minimum standards. 127 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 7: From October next year. There'd need to be ceiling insulation, 128 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 7: weather seals, three star cooling systems, four star shower heads 129 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 7: plus blind court and kor and once a heater or 130 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 7: hot water system conks out, it'll have to be replaced 131 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 7: with an energy efficient electric option. 132 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 10: We're looking at annual dollar savings on tenants bills of 133 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 10: around three hundred and thirty dollars. 134 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 2: The save renters three hundred dollars if they're right with 135 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 2: their figures, and the Victorian government often are not right 136 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 2: with their. 137 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 5: Figures three hundred dollars annually. 138 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 2: But I would argue, if the landlord is going to 139 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 2: have to spend thousands, and we're talking many thousands to 140 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 2: meet these minimum standards, the rents are going to go 141 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 2: up by a little bit more than three hundred annually. 142 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 2: I mean, how monstrously stupid would you have to be 143 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,679 Speaker 2: Patrick not to see this the impact that you're going 144 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 2: to have less rental properties available, so the rental pool shrinks, 145 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 2: rents go up, and that the landlords are going to 146 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,079 Speaker 2: try to pass these costs on too rents naturally. 147 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 8: Absolutely, And look, I mean you can't look at this 148 00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 8: in isolation. Here in Victoria, we've got a land tax 149 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 8: that's tripled or something like that in the last few years. 150 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 8: The overheads for landlords have just gone through the room. 151 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,920 Speaker 8: The Victorian government seems to be driven by ideology and debt, 152 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 8: where the rich people have to pay off this debt 153 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 8: that just keeps escalating week in week out with the 154 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 8: big projects here in Victoria. And of course the renters 155 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 8: they're the ones who are caught in the buying. I mean, 156 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 8: in a lot of cases, they can't afford to stay 157 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:24,320 Speaker 8: and they can't afford to go because it is so 158 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 8: difficult with the cost of living. The Victorian government is 159 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 8: doing nothing for them on any level, and in so 160 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 8: many ways they're actually hurting them and making it worse. 161 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:33,839 Speaker 5: Absolutely. 162 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 2: Now let's go to this story from the mul Dives 163 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:37,439 Speaker 2: or the Maldives. 164 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 5: Which one do you prefer. 165 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 1: Mold E's I believe. 166 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,080 Speaker 5: Is it's correct. I've been there and I still don't 167 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 5: know what's correct. 168 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:49,079 Speaker 2: But this popular holiday destination is going to ban Israeli 169 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 2: passports from Israelis can no longer holiday there, and thousands 170 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 2: do from Israel every year. 171 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 5: This is not isolated. 172 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 2: There's a number of Islamic majority countries that ban Israeli 173 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 2: passports or the likes of Bangladesh, Brunei, Iran, Kuwait, Pakistan, Syria, Libya, Yemen. 174 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,880 Speaker 5: As others on the list. 175 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,320 Speaker 2: This is a bold move, then this could have an 176 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 2: impact far wider than Israel. I'm going to imagine there'd 177 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:21,679 Speaker 2: be a lot of other people who'd say, I'll find 178 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:26,559 Speaker 2: somewhere else idealic to holiday, not somewhere that bands Israeli passports. 179 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:27,440 Speaker 1: I didn't realize. 180 00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 8: I think eleven thousand Israelis go to the Maldives each year, 181 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:35,079 Speaker 8: and there were actually warnings starting to be introduced last 182 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:36,320 Speaker 8: year within Israel. 183 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 1: Watch out, you. 184 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 8: Take it carefully if you're planning to go there. I 185 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 8: think in this rise of anti Semitism that we're feeling 186 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,199 Speaker 8: here in Australia, if anything, this is actually a good 187 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 8: reason not to go to the Maldives, whether you're Jewish 188 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 8: or not, because it's obviously targeted against Jewish people across 189 00:10:56,120 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 8: the board. It's very Islamic driven in its direction, and 190 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 8: it's actually famil I'd say, well, hang on, if I'm 191 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 8: going to go here or there. 192 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:07,599 Speaker 1: I might not go there because of this. 193 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 2: I tell you where it's idyllic and you don't have 194 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 2: any of these sort of conditions. 195 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:14,479 Speaker 5: The Florida Panhandle. 196 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 2: That's where I like to go beach holidays. 197 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:18,959 Speaker 5: So yeah, put that on the list. 198 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 2: Now to this disturbing story from Europe, the euthanasia slippery 199 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 2: slope is real. A physically healthy Dutch woman named Zarea 200 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 2: tur Beek had her life terminated because her depression met 201 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 2: the requirement for unbearable suffering with no prospect of improvement. 202 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 2: She was only twenty nine years old. A sad, depressed 203 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 2: twenty nine year old who was killed by this stay 204 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 2: this is state sponsored suicide. We know she her a 205 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 2: little bit of her story. She was bullied as a child. 206 00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 2: She was diagnosed with autism. At twenty one, she started 207 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 2: wearing a do not Resuscitate tag around to neck. At 208 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 2: twenty two, she said her psychologist has told her that 209 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:11,719 Speaker 2: a depression wasn't going to go away and started her 210 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:14,679 Speaker 2: on her assisted suicide journey. 211 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 8: Patrick, this is awful, just absolutely awful. I find it 212 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:20,719 Speaker 8: hard to believe that a psychologist would say you're never 213 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 8: going to get over your depression and then start to 214 00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 8: help this process of dying, that is stay sponsored. I've 215 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 8: seen elderly people go through terminal illness and linger longer 216 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 8: than they should, and euthanasia is a good thing in 217 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,320 Speaker 8: a lot of those cases. But a twenty nine year old, 218 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:40,319 Speaker 8: how can you say, well, the rest of her life 219 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:44,560 Speaker 8: is doomed, We're going to end it nowtantly healthy. 220 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:50,079 Speaker 2: But they consider mental pain chronic pain. Patrick Carline, thank 221 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:52,560 Speaker 2: you so much for you one this evening. Joining me 222 00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 2: now is the Australians media writer Sophie Ellsworth. Sophie, let's 223 00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 2: start with the former ABC present Antoinette Latouffe, who had 224 00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 2: a bit of a win this week after the Fair 225 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:08,839 Speaker 2: Work Commission found she was indeed sacked by the ABC 226 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:13,239 Speaker 2: midway through her employment. The ABC had argued her contract 227 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 2: wasn't actually terminated. 228 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 5: Tell me what. 229 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 2: Impact this decision will have on the case she's pursuing. 230 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 2: Is she going to now be compensated or does this 231 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 2: mean she was unfairly terminated. 232 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,960 Speaker 10: Well, it's now moving on RITA to the Federal Court, 233 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 10: so it's still got some way to play out. But 234 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:39,200 Speaker 10: the ABC were arguing that she wasn't terminated. She had 235 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 10: five casual shifts to do and she was let go 236 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 10: after three, but she was paid for all five. She 237 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:48,599 Speaker 10: was paid for all five and. 238 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 4: So it's very interesting. 239 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 10: They're saying, you know, you don't need to shop for 240 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 10: you basically your last two episodes after she put up 241 00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 10: this Instagram post which they deemed was a. 242 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:00,840 Speaker 4: Breach of social media. 243 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,440 Speaker 10: So this is a story that just will not go 244 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 10: away for ABC Sydney. Been very damaging for them. We're 245 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 10: six months on and we still don't have a result. 246 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 5: This is interesting. 247 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:15,240 Speaker 2: So if you've got five shifts under some sort of 248 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 2: a casual employment agreement and you're let go but you're 249 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 2: paid for all five, you can still be deemed to 250 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 2: be terminated and then have certain rights that are attached 251 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 2: after that. 252 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:28,720 Speaker 4: Well, that clearly must be the case reto. 253 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 10: Because she was four or five shifts, they said you're 254 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 10: here for five. 255 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 4: After her third shift. 256 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 10: On the Wednesday, that's when they made the decision you 257 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 10: don't need to come back. 258 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 2: Well, they've got bigger problems, I would argue here in 259 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:44,320 Speaker 2: Melbourne because the radio ratings came out today and ABC 260 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 2: Melbourne this is the worst they have recorded since modern 261 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 2: ratings have been in place. The age saying this is 262 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 2: the worst they have seen in twenty years. This is 263 00:14:55,840 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 2: quite a setback. What is behind this rating slide? It 264 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 2: didn't start in this survey, but this is a new low. 265 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 4: That's right RETA. 266 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 10: So from all the records I can see, this is 267 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:12,000 Speaker 10: the lowest that they've had in the existing rating system. 268 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 10: They're down to five point four percent audience share, which 269 00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 10: is very low, and clearly whatever they're doing is not working. 270 00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 10: They've had a reshuffle, moving host different spots up. Most 271 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:28,320 Speaker 10: of the changes were late last year, but it's not working. 272 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:33,119 Speaker 2: Are they going to I don't know, rejigt their offering 273 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 2: or are we going to see more of the same 274 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 2: because they did seem to have a freshen up, but 275 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 2: it's the same old ABC types. There's really not a 276 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 2: great deal of diversity of opinion on that, and I 277 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:51,960 Speaker 2: would argue the appeal of it is fairly limited. 278 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 4: And that's the problem REACHO. 279 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:56,440 Speaker 10: They just you know, shuffle did a bit of musical chairs. 280 00:15:56,520 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 10: They don't inject new talent people from outside the ABC 281 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 10: into the ABC. It's just a reshuffling of staff they have. 282 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 10: And I think this is proving a problem because their 283 00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:11,640 Speaker 10: stations are feeling it right across the country, but particularly Melbourne. 284 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:14,359 Speaker 5: Now let's talk about the Project. 285 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 2: Apparently having a bunch of lefty hosts, that's not enough. 286 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 2: Channel ten want to go even further left, so they 287 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:24,640 Speaker 2: bought in a Guardian journalist on as a guest to 288 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 2: opine about nuclear energy policies and economics. 289 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 5: Let's have a look. 290 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 11: Because we keep talking about it being a cheaper source 291 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 11: of zero carbon energy, in which case, right now, yes 292 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 11: it is, but the reality is as we move forward, 293 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 11: it's not going to be the cheaper source of energy. 294 00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, when I need economics and energy advice, I go 295 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 2: straight to your favorite Guardian journalism. I mean really, but 296 00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 2: tell me about the project, how they're traveling. We're hearing 297 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 2: about Q and A and other program designed for lefties 298 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:05,120 Speaker 2: being in peril. There's talk about it not coming back 299 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:08,199 Speaker 2: for another season. How are these shows traveling in the 300 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 2: current environment. 301 00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 10: Well, they've changed the whole rating system RITA, so it's 302 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,120 Speaker 10: hard to compare apples with apples. 303 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 4: But we do know that. 304 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:19,639 Speaker 10: Freedomware television has struggled in recent years, particularly the growth 305 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:23,840 Speaker 10: of streaming, and projects like the shows like the Project 306 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:26,639 Speaker 10: have struggled. They obviously had all that fall out with 307 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 10: the Britney Higgins interview they did with Lisa Wilkinson. Channel 308 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 10: ten has a lot of problems and the project is 309 00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 10: really just in this little echo chamber of left leaning voices. 310 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 10: It doesn't very rarely branch out other than having people 311 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:44,360 Speaker 10: like fellow Sky News host Steve Price on it once 312 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 10: a week, once a week, for once a week. 313 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:48,840 Speaker 5: As token conservative for once a week. 314 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:50,359 Speaker 4: That's right, that's right, Rita. 315 00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 5: Now Channel nine. 316 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:55,399 Speaker 2: They've got their own woes as now talk about a 317 00:17:55,520 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 2: class action. Female employees current and former are talking with lawyers. 318 00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:05,800 Speaker 5: What's the latest that Channel nine. 319 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:08,560 Speaker 4: So, Rita, this is saga is still going on. 320 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 10: Obviously, there's a lot of people have spoken out of 321 00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 10: alleged mistreatment at the network, sexual harassment, and now Morris Blackfirm, 322 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:20,400 Speaker 10: one of the big law firms, has come out and said, look, 323 00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:23,960 Speaker 10: women who have been treated badly in the TV industry, 324 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 10: come and see us. 325 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:26,720 Speaker 4: This looks like. 326 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:30,120 Speaker 10: It's going to gain some momentum Rita.

This is 505 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 1: a stitch up. This was a hatchet job. I mean, 506 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:56,320 Speaker 1: look at the fact that the person prosecuting for Alvin Bragg, who, 507 00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 1: as you say, campaign because we have this weird thing 508 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:03,360 Speaker 1: where we have prosecutors who are elected to officers, campaigned 509 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:06,680 Speaker 1: on putting President Trump in prison, a man who, by 510 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:10,159 Speaker 1: the way, was also funded by George Soros in that campaign. 511 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:13,840 Speaker 1: And then who's his line prosecutor in the case. Now, 512 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:18,359 Speaker 1: this is where it gets really fascinating. Matthew Colangelo. Who's 513 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:23,600 Speaker 1: Matthew Colangelo. Well, he parachuted in from the stinking swamp 514 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:27,160 Speaker 1: that is Washington, DC, where he was the number three, 515 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:30,960 Speaker 1: the third most senior law enforcement officer in Biden's Department 516 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:34,400 Speaker 1: of Justice. Never before in the history of federal law 517 00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:39,959 Speaker 1: enforcement does the third highest ranking official in the federal 518 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 1: Department of Justice just magically fall all the way down 519 00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:46,960 Speaker 1: the snakes and ladders to become a line prosecutor in 520 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 1: a local court in New York. Why did he take 521 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:54,440 Speaker 1: that massive pay cup because he's doing the bidding of 522 00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 1: Joe Biden in that courtroom. The whole thing was a farrago. 523 00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 1: Look the way you understand this, and President Trump even 524 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 1: quoted my substack article today on his truth Social Fee 525 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 1: is that this is how they want to steal the 526 00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 1: election before the first ballot is even cast. They know 527 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:16,400 Speaker 1: President Trump is going to win. Why New Jersey, New 528 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 1: Jersey is a Democrat state. President Trump goes there and 529 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 1: a hundred thousand working class minority Americans go to see 530 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 1: President Trump. Biden is toast if we have a free 531 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 1: and fair election. That's why they want to put President 532 00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 1: Trump in prison. On July eleventh, you. 533 00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:44,600 Speaker 2: Talked about the third ranking Justice Department dude coming down 534 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 2: to this local court to be a prosecutor. I mean, 535 00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 2: how do we have a local court in Manhattan prosecuting 536 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 2: federal election crimes? Mean, on the face of it, it 537 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 2: seems so obset. We've had so many legal experts talk 538 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:09,080 Speaker 2: about the massive inconsistencies and just extraordinary things that have 539 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:12,080 Speaker 2: seen in this trial. And yet there was a poll 540 00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:16,400 Speaker 2: out today showing that around fifty three percent of Americans 541 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:18,480 Speaker 2: think this was a fair trial. 542 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:19,320 Speaker 5: How can that be. 543 00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 1: Well, because they listen to propaganda halls like CNN and 544 00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:27,480 Speaker 1: the Washington Post. I mean, that's why. I mean, even 545 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:31,240 Speaker 1: your chirn and your introduction is a talking point for 546 00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:35,280 Speaker 1: the mainstreamlining legacy media hush money trial. It's not a 547 00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:39,360 Speaker 1: hush money trial. It's a non disclosure agreement. I signed 548 00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:43,240 Speaker 1: a non disclosure agreement with mister Trump in twenty fifteen 549 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 1: when I came on board to be his national security 550 00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 1: advisor for the debate. An NDA is a completely standard 551 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:55,440 Speaker 1: business practice in Australia, in the UK, in America. And 552 00:30:55,920 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 1: this is what it's a fabricated crime. The statute of 553 00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:05,280 Speaker 1: limitation that expired five years ago for what they charged 554 00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 1: him with, which is what a misstatement on a financial 555 00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:13,720 Speaker 1: internal document where he said this is legal fees. Well, 556 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:16,560 Speaker 1: it was because he was paying his lawyer. And then 557 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:20,840 Speaker 1: they come up with this Rube Goldberg lunatic thing that well, 558 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:27,360 Speaker 1: the hush money so called payment was made to protect 559 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:32,120 Speaker 1: the president's reputation during an election. Therefore it should have 560 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:35,960 Speaker 1: been paid for from the campaign fund. But here's where 561 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:39,520 Speaker 1: it gets bizarre. When was that payment to the president's 562 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 1: lawyer made. This is an important point, January after the election. 563 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 1: How can you undermine an election three months after the 564 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 1: election occurred unless the check went into HG. Wells's time 565 00:31:56,240 --> 00:32:00,960 Speaker 1: machine and went back in time. The whole thing is abrurcation. 566 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:05,160 Speaker 1: And your other point is completely well taken. It's a 567 00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:08,959 Speaker 1: federal election. So what is a state court in New 568 00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:14,840 Speaker 1: York doing trying to prosecute a federal election allegation? The 569 00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 1: Federal Election Commission deemed there to be no crime. Alvin 570 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:25,520 Speaker 1: Bragg's predecessor in New York, Saivans Junior, said, yeah, sorry, 571 00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:29,520 Speaker 1: no crime here. Oh, but President Trump becomes the nominee 572 00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 1: for the Republicans. He's beating Joe Piden in six of 573 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:38,080 Speaker 1: the six battleground states. Are now we're going to charge 574 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:40,880 Speaker 1: him with the Trump up felony everybody sees through this 575 00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:44,520 Speaker 1: who's awake, has our eyes open, and has a pulse. 576 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:50,720 Speaker 2: Now you were in court, you know, President Trump. Did 577 00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 2: he appear rattled at any point when those verdicts came 578 00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 2: through and the thirty four guilties. 579 00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:03,720 Speaker 5: Did you sense that at he felt fear or despair? 580 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 1: This man is quite remarkable. I've never seen him show 581 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 1: fear since I've known him since what twenty fifteen. Look, 582 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 1: he said something quite moving that day. He said that 583 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:23,040 Speaker 1: I am prepared to go to prison because the US 584 00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 1: Constitution is more important than my liberty. What person says that, 585 00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:32,240 Speaker 1: I mean, let alone, what politician? He says, I'm doing 586 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 1: this for all of you. It's not about me. And 587 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:38,960 Speaker 1: he's right. I mean, Donald Trump, without any question, is 588 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:41,840 Speaker 1: the most famous man in the world. He's a billionaire. 589 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:45,320 Speaker 1: He's a person who's escorted twenty four hours a day, 590 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:48,640 Speaker 1: seven days a week by Secret Service agents carrying fully 591 00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:53,280 Speaker 1: automatic weapons. That man is very clear about one thing. 592 00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:56,280 Speaker 1: If they can do it to him, they can do 593 00:33:56,360 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 1: it to any American. And that's why he will never 594 00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:03,680 Speaker 1: ever stopped. And as he said last Thursday, standing in 595 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:08,200 Speaker 1: that dingy corridor under that neon lighting, the real verdict 596 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:11,800 Speaker 1: will be on November fifth, when the American people speak, 597 00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:15,399 Speaker 1: well this law fare. 598 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 2: There are now debates happening amongst conservatives. Some say Republicans 599 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 2: must take the high road, they can't play these dirty 600 00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:27,680 Speaker 2: games the Democrats have played, and others say no, this 601 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:31,040 Speaker 2: is the only way to deal with this strategy is 602 00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:34,000 Speaker 2: to throw it back at them and their suggestions. 603 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 5: If you want to talk about. 604 00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:38,799 Speaker 2: Election interference, what about that letter that was signed by 605 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:43,520 Speaker 2: fifty one national security experts. Where did that letter originate from, 606 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:46,680 Speaker 2: who had a hand in crafting it? Those fifty one 607 00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:50,719 Speaker 2: security experts who claimed that Hunter Biden's laptop and all 608 00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:54,719 Speaker 2: the information contained within it about the Biden family was 609 00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:59,000 Speaker 2: Russian disinformation that came out right before the twenty twenty election. 610 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:03,239 Speaker 2: To credit that New York Post story, and you could 611 00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:07,320 Speaker 2: argue very easily that was a clear case of election interference. 612 00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:08,680 Speaker 5: Did the likes of the. 613 00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:12,080 Speaker 2: Biden campaign, Joe Biden, Anthony Blincoln, did they have any 614 00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:18,120 Speaker 2: hand in spreading that message? Do you think that's going 615 00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,560 Speaker 2: to happen? Do you think the Republicans are going to 616 00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:25,879 Speaker 2: go after Joe Biden, go after Hillary Clinton and other 617 00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:30,480 Speaker 2: Democrats as they've gone against their ideological opponents. 618 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:34,120 Speaker 1: Well, first things first, we know who orchestrated that. It 619 00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:37,440 Speaker 1: is Anthony Blincoln, the Secretary of State, and Mike Morell. 620 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:40,799 Speaker 1: Mike Morell has confessed on the testimony in front of 621 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:45,239 Speaker 1: the House of Representative as acting director of the CIA, 622 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 1: which should be a completely non political position, he orchestrated 623 00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:54,080 Speaker 1: the signatures of those fifty one former CIA directors and 624 00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:59,040 Speaker 1: intelligence officers to lie about the Hunter Biden laptop, which 625 00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:04,200 Speaker 1: we now know is true. The photographs, the video, the prostitutes, 626 00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:07,880 Speaker 1: the guns, the cocaine, it's all real. And they said, no, 627 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:10,560 Speaker 1: this is this is a Russian this information. That's the 628 00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:13,239 Speaker 1: acting director of the CIA. That is the definition of 629 00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:15,279 Speaker 1: the deep state. Now what are the Republicans going to 630 00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:17,040 Speaker 1: do now? First thing is, first they're not going to 631 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:21,760 Speaker 1: go after their political ideological opponents, because then we sync 632 00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:25,040 Speaker 1: to the gutter of those who believe that the state 633 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:28,080 Speaker 1: is there is a political weapon. What we must go after, 634 00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:31,719 Speaker 1: not politically, but in the terms of justice, is those 635 00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:34,719 Speaker 1: who have committed crimes. If you worked in the Trump 636 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:40,279 Speaker 1: administration leaked secret documents to the Washington Post CNN, you 637 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 1: committed a felony. If you're Jim comey former director of 638 00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:49,920 Speaker 1: the FBI. If you're James Clapper, John Brannan directed the 639 00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:54,319 Speaker 1: DII and the CIA, you affected the illegal surveillance of 640 00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:59,160 Speaker 1: a presidential candidate. It's Operation Crossfire Hurricane. You use the 641 00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:03,200 Speaker 1: most powerful intelligence agencies in the world as a political tool. 642 00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:06,799 Speaker 1: You must be charged with abuse of power, and you 643 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:09,160 Speaker 1: must stand in a dock and answer for your crimes 644 00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:12,280 Speaker 1: and be judged by injury of your peers. So unless 645 00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:16,160 Speaker 1: we restore faith in our institutions, I mean the biggest 646 00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:18,560 Speaker 1: you know, President Trump is doing great. He's raised two 647 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:21,000 Speaker 1: hundred million dollars in the last seventy two hours. I 648 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:24,960 Speaker 1: mean that never before seen since the verdict. But God willing, 649 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:26,640 Speaker 1: if we have a free and fair election, he will 650 00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:28,600 Speaker 1: be re elected and he will be the president, whether 651 00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:31,600 Speaker 1: he's convicted or not. But the bigger problem is this reader. 652 00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:36,120 Speaker 1: On Thursday, tens of millions of Americans lost complete and 653 00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:39,759 Speaker 1: utter faith in the judicial system and the organs of 654 00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:43,640 Speaker 1: the state that have the power to imprison. That takes 655 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:47,520 Speaker 1: much longer than one election to fix. Tens of millions 656 00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:52,320 Speaker 1: of Americans say, hang on a second, the FBI, the DOJ, 657 00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:55,320 Speaker 1: the State of New York, if they don't like my face, 658 00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:58,480 Speaker 1: if they don't like my politics, they can put me 659 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:02,759 Speaker 1: in prison for years. That the real damage done to 660 00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:06,520 Speaker 1: the Republic, and that has been done by the Democrats. 661 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:12,640 Speaker 2: The effect of this trial on the polls, it appears 662 00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:13,560 Speaker 2: to be mixed. 663 00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:14,720 Speaker 5: There's a new. 664 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:19,480 Speaker 2: ABC poll suggesting perceptions of Donald Trump and Joe Biden 665 00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:25,920 Speaker 2: are statistically unchanged from before the verdict was announced. Roytis 666 00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:29,640 Speaker 2: poll says that one in ten Republicans are less likely 667 00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:33,080 Speaker 2: to vote for Trump post verdict than they were before. 668 00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:36,040 Speaker 2: There's been a number of other polls talked about them 669 00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:39,920 Speaker 2: over the weekend that showed Trump's support actually improved after 670 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:44,640 Speaker 2: the conviction. What do you think the impact of this case, 671 00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:48,720 Speaker 2: this conviction is going to be in November on Trump's 672 00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:51,800 Speaker 2: chances of being elected president. 673 00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:57,240 Speaker 1: Well, it's very simple. Just look at what happened. Seventy 674 00:38:57,280 --> 00:39:02,840 Speaker 1: million dollars in eight hours from small donors. Then we 675 00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:07,640 Speaker 1: have another one hundred and thirty million from big institutional donors. 676 00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:13,120 Speaker 1: That's two hundred million dollars in seventy two hours. Forget polls, 677 00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 1: look at and go. You know, if you go to 678 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:18,239 Speaker 1: my Twitter feed because I want social media lot, and 679 00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:22,839 Speaker 1: when you see Democrats who bring the receipts and by name, 680 00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:25,839 Speaker 1: they say, I'm a Democrat, I voted Democrat all my life, 681 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 1: I'm voting for President Trump, and I just donated to 682 00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 1: his campaign. And there's a screenshot John Smith donated one 683 00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:35,200 Speaker 1: hundred dollars. I've never seen that before. I never seen 684 00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:39,560 Speaker 1: Democrats openly on a social media platform where they face cancelation, 685 00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:43,520 Speaker 1: and you know, they self dox themselves saying I've had it. 686 00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:48,480 Speaker 1: You know this is beyond party politics. But we know, 687 00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:52,360 Speaker 1: we know what if any other person had been accused 688 00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:58,600 Speaker 1: of misstating a business entry for their accounting seven years ago, 689 00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:02,279 Speaker 1: they wouldn't be in the they wouldn't be convicted of 690 00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:06,040 Speaker 1: thirty four made up felonies. The only reason is it's 691 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:10,000 Speaker 1: President Trump. The only reason is he is the threat 692 00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:14,160 Speaker 1: of all threats to the UNI Party, to the Democrats 693 00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:19,080 Speaker 1: and the fake Conservative Republican in name only rhinos. That's 694 00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:21,279 Speaker 1: why he must be stopped. This is the only man 695 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:24,680 Speaker 1: who isn't owned by any special interest group, not the unions, 696 00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:28,120 Speaker 1: not big farmer, not big oil, not the military industrial complex. 697 00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:31,680 Speaker 1: Nobody owns my former boss, and as such, he must 698 00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:34,359 Speaker 1: be stopped. And this is how they think they can 699 00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:37,560 Speaker 1: stop him. But you know the right thing about all 700 00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:40,520 Speaker 1: this is what do Americans love more than anything else, 701 00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:43,800 Speaker 1: you know, from Clint Eastward to you know, Dirty Harry, 702 00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:49,120 Speaker 1: all of those. We love outlaws, we love cowboys. Why 703 00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:53,879 Speaker 1: is hashtag outlaw president trending because they've made him an 704 00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:57,240 Speaker 1: outlaw and Americans love outlaws. 705 00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:04,280 Speaker 2: Well, it's incredible because even the term convicted felon, which 706 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:08,520 Speaker 2: they were using, and I saw one of Thesaurus Son saying, 707 00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:12,040 Speaker 2: we've got to get this tag attached to Trump anytime 708 00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:16,840 Speaker 2: is mentioned, say convicted felon, they've completely changed the meaning 709 00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:19,520 Speaker 2: of that because that was trending on Twitter. But it 710 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:23,560 Speaker 2: was trending because Republicans were pledging to vote for a 711 00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:28,600 Speaker 2: convicted felon, not because Democrats were using that term. So 712 00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:32,160 Speaker 2: in that way it has backfired certainly with the donations 713 00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:33,200 Speaker 2: that have been raised. 714 00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:36,680 Speaker 5: And I look forward to speaking to you again. 715 00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:39,839 Speaker 2: Before the November poll, Doctor Gorka, thank you so much 716 00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:40,840 Speaker 2: for your time this evening. 717 00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:43,520 Speaker 1: Thank you, Thank you to check out my sab stack 718 00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:44,759 Speaker 1: and follow me on Twitter. 719 00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:46,439 Speaker 5: God bless you still to come. 720 00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:49,719 Speaker 2: The BBC is confused about what a woman is, and 721 00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:54,800 Speaker 2: so is the safety Commissioner Stephanie bash Journey's up next. 722 00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:06,799 Speaker 2: You're watching the Reader Penny Show. Joining me now as 723 00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:11,920 Speaker 2: research fellow for a Women's Forum Australia, Stephanie Bastian Stephanie. 724 00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:15,439 Speaker 2: Let's start with the Safety Commissioner Julian M Grant, who 725 00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:20,680 Speaker 2: seemed genuinely confused about the link between labeling factual claims 726 00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:25,080 Speaker 2: a hate crime and how that relates to a male. 727 00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:27,759 Speaker 5: Predator ending up in a women's prison. 728 00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:32,520 Speaker 15: And that deliberately misgendering someone online is a form of 729 00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:33,600 Speaker 15: gendered violence. 730 00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:37,080 Speaker 5: How do you justify these statements. 731 00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:39,560 Speaker 15: In a country where a male rapist and child's sex 732 00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:42,400 Speaker 15: offender can be placed in a women's prison and access 733 00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:43,440 Speaker 15: women's facilities. 734 00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:49,239 Speaker 14: I fail to see the connection to that specific incident. 735 00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:52,799 Speaker 14: A senator, that's kind of drying a long ball. 736 00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:57,080 Speaker 15: I would say, I'm guessing, given that you've referenced it's 737 00:42:57,360 --> 00:42:59,719 Speaker 15: seemingly a long vot draw, that you aren't aware of 738 00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:03,279 Speaker 15: the case that I've referred to. I've spoken about this 739 00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:05,920 Speaker 15: in the Senate before, where a man who was previously 740 00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:09,400 Speaker 15: convicted of raping his own six year old daughter committed 741 00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:12,239 Speaker 15: a serious sexual assault on a woman in Australia and 742 00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:16,120 Speaker 15: was referred to as a woman by the media and the. 743 00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:17,960 Speaker 5: Court before being placed in a women's prison. 744 00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:22,920 Speaker 14: What does this have to do with online safety, Senator. 745 00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:25,760 Speaker 15: Well, I think the question is is it your position 746 00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:28,480 Speaker 15: that referring is it the a Safety Commissions position that 747 00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:31,759 Speaker 15: referring to a male rapist or as a man or 748 00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:35,839 Speaker 15: as a male in an online forum, posting about it 749 00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:39,440 Speaker 15: on Facebook is misgendering and therefore a form of violence. 750 00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:43,960 Speaker 14: I think I will take that on notice. But I 751 00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:48,479 Speaker 14: am not required to provide a personal opinion, nor would 752 00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:50,359 Speaker 14: I an a case like this, nor would I make 753 00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:56,200 Speaker 14: an honor spite judgment about a particular live investigation without 754 00:43:56,520 --> 00:44:01,840 Speaker 14: the proper investigations being done. So I'm not going to 755 00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:03,239 Speaker 14: be drying on that, Senator, thank you. 756 00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:07,560 Speaker 2: She doesn't want to make an on the spot judgment 757 00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:09,000 Speaker 2: about a live investigation. 758 00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:10,440 Speaker 5: What live investigation? 759 00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:14,840 Speaker 2: The male predator has been charged, convicted and is jailed 760 00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:18,040 Speaker 2: right now in a women's prison here in Victoria. 761 00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:21,200 Speaker 5: Is she just ignorant or is she engaging in a 762 00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:22,919 Speaker 5: bit of misdirection there? 763 00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:26,319 Speaker 2: Because I think the question was quite clear that you 764 00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:31,480 Speaker 2: can be called guilty of a hate crime, guilty of 765 00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:36,719 Speaker 2: hate speech if you misgender this person in discussing this 766 00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:39,240 Speaker 2: case and the injustice of this case. 767 00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:47,080 Speaker 9: Look, it's hard to tell whether she's ignorant or engaging 768 00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:50,160 Speaker 9: in misinformation when it comes to this particular case. What 769 00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:52,320 Speaker 9: I think it shows, though, is that she hasn't actually 770 00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:56,600 Speaker 9: considered the impact on women and girls when she puts 771 00:44:56,600 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 9: in these particular directives. If she had, make their position 772 00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:04,840 Speaker 9: indefensible at the end of the day, women have the 773 00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:08,840 Speaker 9: right to know if these predators are male or female. 774 00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:12,680 Speaker 9: It also shows that certain male patterns of behavior don't 775 00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:17,680 Speaker 9: change to suddenly start labeling all of this content as misinformation, 776 00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:22,600 Speaker 9: as not just misinformation, but as online violence. Now violence 777 00:45:22,680 --> 00:45:25,120 Speaker 9: is a crime, it's very serious, and I think it 778 00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:29,120 Speaker 9: shows that the Australian Human Rights Commissioner has been overrun 779 00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:31,200 Speaker 9: by activists and is no longer fit for purpose. 780 00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:33,640 Speaker 5: Well. 781 00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 2: Jillian Mangrant and the bureaucrats she had with her answering 782 00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:41,440 Speaker 2: questions made it clear that they form these policies after 783 00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:46,600 Speaker 2: consultation with transactivists. Do they also speak to any women's 784 00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:50,160 Speaker 2: rights campaigners? Do they consult groups like yours? 785 00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:55,840 Speaker 9: No, they did not, and we fight very hard to 786 00:45:55,920 --> 00:45:58,680 Speaker 9: try and have our voices heard to put this other side. 787 00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:01,360 Speaker 9: We've been running titians. We've got a petition at the 788 00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:04,600 Speaker 9: moment on our website Women's from Australia or slash prisons. 789 00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:07,080 Speaker 9: We have met with every state and federal department. You 790 00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:09,680 Speaker 9: would think that if they are putting these policies in place, 791 00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:13,279 Speaker 9: they would be consulting broadly with the Victorian Human Rights 792 00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:16,800 Speaker 9: Commission or the other commissions in each state. If they haven't, 793 00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:19,640 Speaker 9: then there's an issue with their processes. If they have, 794 00:46:20,320 --> 00:46:24,399 Speaker 9: they are clearly and deliberately ignoring the impacts of these 795 00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:25,760 Speaker 9: policies to women and girls. 796 00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:31,560 Speaker 2: And she also said that she would not censor any 797 00:46:31,640 --> 00:46:36,080 Speaker 2: political commentary about trans or anti trans material, said that 798 00:46:36,200 --> 00:46:40,080 Speaker 2: was not her role, but as children's rights active ASTs 799 00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:44,080 Speaker 2: Billboard Chris asked, why do I need to hire a 800 00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:48,719 Speaker 2: lawyer in Australia right now? If Julian mngrand isn't censoring 801 00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:55,080 Speaker 2: political commentary about trans, that's a good question, Stephanie. 802 00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:57,920 Speaker 9: Ah, Look, I think that statement would fall foul of 803 00:46:58,000 --> 00:47:02,040 Speaker 9: the government's misinformation bill I might remember Jasmine's had her 804 00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:06,280 Speaker 9: post removed over the fact that she reported a male 805 00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:09,839 Speaker 9: saying a man could not breastfeed We've had raddicks who 806 00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:13,239 Speaker 9: have posted about trans footballers injuring women like there are 807 00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:15,840 Speaker 9: so many cases where she's weighed in on this debate 808 00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:19,520 Speaker 9: and tried to censor information that is factual and it 809 00:47:19,560 --> 00:47:23,680 Speaker 9: is relevant to the community safety. So that's a poorky reader. 810 00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:28,080 Speaker 5: And it's always in the one direction. 811 00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:34,440 Speaker 2: If other tweets were getting similarly censored or banned removed 812 00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:38,240 Speaker 2: from Twitter, I would go, Okay, I'm not in favor 813 00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:42,600 Speaker 2: of this, but at least it's relatively even handed. But 814 00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:47,200 Speaker 2: we see the most vile, disgusting things sent to women 815 00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:51,879 Speaker 2: who are fighting for women's only spaces, and somehow that 816 00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:55,640 Speaker 2: never crosses the Ease Safety Commissioner's desk that they're not 817 00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:59,840 Speaker 2: removed or there's no sort of campaign to protect the 818 00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:03,799 Speaker 2: those women. The online community, though, I've got to say, 819 00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:08,239 Speaker 2: is getting fed up with the bulk of the mainstream 820 00:48:08,320 --> 00:48:13,360 Speaker 2: media is politically correct reporting. The BBC tweeted an article 821 00:48:14,400 --> 00:48:17,279 Speaker 2: claiming that a seventy year old woman will be in 822 00:48:17,360 --> 00:48:22,200 Speaker 2: court over her husband's death. For that headline, copped a 823 00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:26,880 Speaker 2: community note on x formerly Twitter. It's a community notes 824 00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:30,080 Speaker 2: provide context. It's sort of like a fact checked and 825 00:48:30,120 --> 00:48:34,200 Speaker 2: it added this important clarification.
