It 12 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:49,600 Speaker 2: features a number of hysterical clowns, including this one. 13 00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 3: With concentration camps looming in the United States. Here's what 14 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:56,600 Speaker 3: queer people are doing. Yes, I said concentration camps. You 15 00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 3: can maga. 16 00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 2: But first, the Australian Defense for is closely monitoring a 17 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:05,720 Speaker 2: fleet of Chinese warships which were spotted sailing just two 18 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:09,480 Speaker 2: hundred and seventy six kilometers away from Sydney. The vessels 19 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 2: were first detected in international waters off the Queensland coast 20 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 2: last week I have been traveling down the Australian coastline. 21 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:22,040 Speaker 2: Defense Minister Richard Miles described the ship's activity as unusual. 22 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 4: There is no doubt that this is not unprecedented, but 23 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:27,119 Speaker 4: an unusual event. 24 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 2: The fleet is believed to be the furthest that Chinese 25 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 2: ships have ventured down the coastline of Australia outside of 26 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 2: an official visit. Joining me now for more on this 27 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 2: is a senior fellow at the Menzies Research Center, Nick Kaita. Nick, 28 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 2: is this something that should be concerning authorities? 29 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 5: Well, I think it should be concerning Richard Miles a 30 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 5: bit more. He just says, well, it's unusual. 31 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 6: To me. 32 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 5: This is positively spooky. Reta. I mean, why on earth 33 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 5: would the Chinese have any reason to waste of perfectly 34 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 5: good warship sailing this far south unless they had hostile 35 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 5: intentions on Australia. Maybe they're on the way to take 36 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 5: over Tasmania or something. I don't know, but I mean, 37 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 5: the point is that they have legitimate security and strategic 38 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:21,520 Speaker 5: interests around China. But I think this kind of thing 39 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 5: is provocative. I'd like to know if they notified the 40 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 5: Australian government they were going to do this, and I'd 41 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 5: like to know what the Australian government's response has been, 42 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 5: because from the sound of what Richard Miles is saying, 43 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 5: it might be yeah, this is a bit unusual Beijing, 44 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 5: you know. No, we should be reading the right act 45 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 5: to them, because as we know, they have their eyes 46 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 5: on the Pacific. 47 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 6: Well. 48 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 2: I would hope that behind the scenes that they are 49 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 2: much stronger in expressing and their feelings about this. Perhaps 50 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 2: they're being diplomatic in the media and not saying much, 51 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:00,800 Speaker 2: but I do fear give it the form of this 52 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 2: government that they're just as weak behind the scenes now 53 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 2: Asioboss Mike Burgess has warned of foreign government hit lists 54 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:12,800 Speaker 2: and plots to steal defense secrets during his sixth and 55 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 2: most sobering annual threat assessment. He gave this last night. 56 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 2: I talked about countries such as Russia Iran ramping up 57 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 2: sabotage operations against Australia. Here's part of what he had 58 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:26,399 Speaker 2: to say last night. 59 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 7: As investigations have identified at least three different countries plotting 60 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 7: to physically harm people in Australia in a small number 61 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 7: of cases, we held great fears for the life of 62 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 7: the person being targeted. Working with our international partners, we 63 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 7: determine this plot was part of a broader effort by 64 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 7: the raging to eliminate critics of the foreign government around 65 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 7: the world, activists, journalists, ordinary citizens. 66 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:50,839 Speaker 8: Nick. 67 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 2: He also spoke about the threats facing the Australian Jewish community. 68 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 7: Antisemitism fested in Australia before the tragic events in the 69 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 7: Middle East, but the drawn out conflict gave it oxygen 70 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 7: and some anti Semites and excuse. Jewish Australians were also 71 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 7: increasingly conflated with the State of Israel, leading to an 72 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 7: increase in anti Semitic incidents. 73 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 2: Nick, It's frightening to think that we've got countries like 74 00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 2: Iran planning to use violence to silence their critics who 75 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:21,719 Speaker 2: live in Australia. 76 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 5: It's extremely concerning, but also this use of misinformation which 77 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,479 Speaker 5: comes from places like Russia and probably Iran and China too. 78 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:38,839 Speaker 5: The rise of this anti Jewish feeling has been sudden 79 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 5: and dramatic, and although I don't think we yet have 80 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 5: high evidence of this, the New South Wales Police have 81 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 5: at least canvased the idea that this might be funded 82 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 5: by foreign money. And I think if you look at 83 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,559 Speaker 5: this whole pro Palestinian thing around the world. It's clear 84 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 5: that somebody is putting serious money into this and filtering 85 00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 5: down various organizations. So this should be alarming. I mean, 86 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 5: I think we tend to be a little bit relaxed 87 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 5: and comfortable over this stuff in Australia, a little bit 88 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 5: naive perhaps thinking, oh, you know, we're good fellows. People 89 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 5: come down here to pat our coalas and have their 90 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 5: photo taken outside the opera house. But no, you know, 91 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 5: in the minds of you, malicious countries like North Korea, 92 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 5: like like Iran, like China, like Russia, they're perfectly prepared 93 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 5: to go to one evilence it takes to meddle in 94 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 5: our democracy, undermine our democracy, and take direct action against 95 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 5: people that they see as a threat. 96 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,360 Speaker 2: And Nick, you spoke about the increase in anti Semitism, 97 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 2: and there seems to be real institutional power behind some 98 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:44,480 Speaker 2: of this sentiment, particularly when you look at what's happening 99 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 2: on our university campuses. What some of these academics are saying. 100 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 2: We're not just talking about a few people on the 101 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 2: fringes who've got no power, no influence, People in prominent 102 00:05:55,440 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 2: positions influencing young minds are viewing this poison. 103 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 6: Yeah. 104 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 5: I mean, of course they want to portray this as 105 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:09,480 Speaker 5: some kind of spontaneous community reaction, because it's nothing like that. 106 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 5: We've been watching the left for twenty years or more 107 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,840 Speaker 5: to see their modus operandian and whether it's climate change 108 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 5: or transgender rights or whatever the cause, when you delve 109 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 5: into it, there is serious money going into these causes, 110 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:29,600 Speaker 5: deliberately fueling and funding people to work full time on 111 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 5: these campaigns. I've got no reason to believe it's any 112 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 5: different at all with this anti Jewish movement, the pro 113 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 5: Palestinian movement, which is disrupting our civil fabric. It is 114 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 5: really putting it threat the whole idea of sort of 115 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 5: multiculturalism I wanted to work, but now I'm doubting it 116 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,359 Speaker 5: with this going on. But if we don't think that 117 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 5: there's foreign actors or even people within Australia who deliberately 118 00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 5: provoke this, then we're just totally naive. 119 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:06,280 Speaker 2: Now let's go to Victoria. Premier Justint Allen has announced 120 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 2: a plan to cut down on the state's bureaucracy. It's 121 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,679 Speaker 2: going to be fairly severe cuts. Next sources of claiming 122 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 2: that more than six and a half thousand jobs could 123 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 2: be acts from Victoria's fifty five thousand strong public service. 124 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 2: This comes amid revelations that the state's wages bill has 125 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 2: nearly doubled from when labor first came to power. So 126 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 2: we've gone from eighteen point eight billion to thirty seven 127 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 2: point five billion, and that wages bill blew out by 128 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 2: three billion in just one year. And it comes after 129 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 2: a report by the state's financial watchdog showed that cost 130 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 2: of major projects in Victoria had blown out by close 131 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 2: to eleven point seven billion. That's with a B in 132 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 2: just the past year. Nick, Victoria is in serious financial peril. 133 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 2: There's no other way to describe the record debt. 134 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, there's six and a half thousand. They're talking about 135 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 5: worst case scenario. That's just a drop in the ocean. Retail. 136 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 5: You know, the public service in Victoria increased by seventeen 137 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 5: percent during COVID, and you expect after that, you know, 138 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 5: people go back to the normal day jobs, but no, 139 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 5: it's kept growing since then. So this is a very 140 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 5: small cut of a very large number of people that 141 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 5: this government has put on to the payroll. And you 142 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 5: bet your bottom dollar that they won't be cutting this 143 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 5: in any logical fashion, if they cut it at all. 144 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 5: I mean, after all, the review is being led by 145 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:40,440 Speaker 5: a senior Victoria form of sceenior Victoria public servant. So 146 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:42,599 Speaker 5: it's highly Elon Musk, is it. 147 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 9: You know? 148 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 5: So I don't take this seriously, but there's certainly a 149 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:49,320 Speaker 5: need to cut. And you make the point about infrastructure, right, 150 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 5: Their infrastructure products are blown out. Not only that, you 151 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 5: know you're not actually finishing anything in Victoria. 152 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:54,719 Speaker 2: Are you. 153 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 5: I mean you don't want to come here and look 154 00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 5: at our railways and our tunnels. You'd have infratry structure 155 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 5: envy here in New Touth Whales because we've just got 156 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 5: the stuff down. They haven't done that in Victoria. So 157 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 5: they're paying more, they've got a larger public service and 158 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 5: it's actually doing less. It's less effective. Something has to happen, 159 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:14,320 Speaker 5: doesn't it. 160 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 2: Oh, you would hope. So if you unleashed someone like 161 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 2: an Elon Musk in Victoria, it would be remarkable the 162 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 2: way we would find. Just give them a month and 163 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 2: I think things would sort out fairly quickly. But we 164 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 2: don't have anybody like that. Before you go talking about 165 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 2: mad spending, it's been revealed that federal and state and 166 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:45,079 Speaker 2: local governments are spending madly. The expended check is exceeding 167 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:49,440 Speaker 2: more than a trillion dollars combined last year, even more 168 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 2: than they were spending during COVID and Nick, this exorbitant 169 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:58,479 Speaker 2: spending is certainly helping to keep inflation high and discouraging 170 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 2: the RBA from lowering the hash rate further. 171 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think people get this message now. People understand 172 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 5: that inflation is driven by too much money circulating the 173 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 5: economy and if the government's pumping money and then that's 174 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 5: a big cause. So, you know, we get that sort 175 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:21,560 Speaker 5: of you know, tiny rate drop from the RBA this week, 176 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 5: which I'm sure is welcome, but very small for mortgage owners. 177 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 5: But you know, there's two ways to fight inflation. One 178 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 5: is to raise interest rates. The other is for the 179 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 5: government to cut its own spending. Well, the government hasn't 180 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 5: cut its own spending, so mortgage rates have risen even 181 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 5: higher than they should have had to. So, you know, 182 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 5: because the government can't spend cure its own spending habit, 183 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,679 Speaker 5: ordinary people with mortgages have to take the brunt of that. 184 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 5: It's totally unfair. 185 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:55,840 Speaker 2: Nick Keta, thanks for your time. Tonight, let's talk about 186 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 2: political messaging. Joining me now as DPR and co advertising 187 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 2: founder Richard Ralph Smith Richard. The major parties have already 188 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 2: started ramping up their ad campaigns ahead of the upcoming election, 189 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 2: and both parties seem to be focused on extending their 190 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:16,160 Speaker 2: reach on social media. Here's what Labor's pushing. 191 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:20,840 Speaker 4: These are all cost of living measures introduced by the 192 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:25,840 Speaker 4: federal Labor government because we understand the pressure families are 193 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 4: under and every little bit helps. 194 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 2: But look who was opposed to every single one of them. 195 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 9: Whichever way you look at it. 196 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:41,599 Speaker 2: You'll be worse off under Dune. It may be a 197 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 2: little bit boring, but I think that's actually a pretty 198 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 2: effective ads. It's focused on cost of living. It's simple, 199 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:51,079 Speaker 2: easy to understand. 200 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 6: Yeah it is. 201 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 10: It's simple, and it's clear whether it's going to be effective. 202 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 10: I'm not entirely sure. We know cost of living is 203 00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 10: the biggest issue in the election, but when you look 204 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:03,439 Speaker 10: at the big cost of living issues housing, food and energy, 205 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 10: that ad doesn't really touch the first two and then 206 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 10: the third one has been Labour's biggest broken promise and 207 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 10: it puts the emphasis on that. So I do wonder 208 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:14,959 Speaker 10: whether people look at it and go right, You've given 209 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 10: me three hundred dollars as a handout, but does that 210 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 10: really compensate further massive increase in my energy bills? So 211 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 10: I wonder about its effectiveness from that point of view. 212 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 10: Time will tell, And I also wonder whether or not 213 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 10: we're seeing very early. You know, is labor going to 214 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:34,839 Speaker 10: make the same mistake by demonizing or over demonizing. 215 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 6: It's a very Dutton focused. 216 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:40,720 Speaker 10: Ad, a conservative leader from the liberal side, because every 217 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:44,680 Speaker 10: time they've done that, you know Howard Abbott now Dutton, 218 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 10: it has backfired. 219 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 2: Now let's contrast that Labor commercial with what the liberals 220 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 2: have got. 221 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 11: Sometimes we were the only thing between vulnerable people and 222 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 11: serious harm. So I learned the importance of always turning 223 00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 11: up and getting on with the jaw. Later I started 224 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:06,680 Speaker 11: a small family business. He grew to forty staff who 225 00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:11,320 Speaker 11: had families, mortgages and aspirations, which means that you were 226 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 11: relied on to balance the books and be responsible. 227 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:18,560 Speaker 2: Peter Dutton in that ad talks about being a police officer, 228 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 2: small business owner, talks about his time as a government minister. 229 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 2: In the full ad. How effective is that? 230 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:27,200 Speaker 6: Well, it is. 231 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 10: It's a solid effort at humanizing Dutton, you know, showing 232 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 10: him as a police officer, showing him as a family man, 233 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 10: showing him interacting with people in the electorate. With John 234 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:41,280 Speaker 10: Howard in particular as well. It's pretty stock standard playbook 235 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 10: stuff to humanize an opposition leader when people aren't really 236 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 10: familiar with a person. 237 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 6: I think what they really. 238 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 10: Need to do with him is get bolder as the 239 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:53,439 Speaker 10: campaign progresses, both in policy but also as in communications. 240 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:56,200 Speaker 2: Well, I fear they're a little bit scared to be 241 00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:59,320 Speaker 2: bold because they're in striking range, and I think they're 242 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:01,599 Speaker 2: worried about making a mistake and having some sort of 243 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:04,720 Speaker 2: a backlash. Now, what have you observed in terms of 244 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 2: how political parties have changed their ads spending? Obviously the 245 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:12,080 Speaker 2: focus isn't just on television and print anymore. You've got 246 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 2: a lot of online ads, You've got a lot of 247 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 2: ads on social media. How do they manage those competing concerns? 248 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,280 Speaker 10: Well, certainly prints dropped off, although when you do a 249 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 10: print buyer you're always buying the digital package as well. 250 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 10: That if you consider TV in terms of TV streaming 251 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 10: video and catch up video and then online video, all 252 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:34,040 Speaker 10: of that in the package. 253 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 6: Steve that that is still the bulk. 254 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 10: Of the media spend for both parties and it's the 255 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 10: quickest and most effective way to get to the mass 256 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 10: audience quickly. And we also know that, you know, every 257 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 10: TV ad, every new TV ad, is picked up by 258 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:50,600 Speaker 10: the news media and that's the way most people interact 259 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 10: with it, and that's free. So they know that that's 260 00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 10: what sets the agenda and they will still be putting 261 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 10: the money behind that. But having said that, social media 262 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 10: spend in this election will be the highest we've ever seen, 263 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 10: will be increasing. 264 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 2: And that's what you said about being bolder, because if 265 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 2: you do have a bold ad, you are going to 266 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 2: get that free publicity. The TV programs are going to 267 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 2: play it, people are going to write about it. But 268 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 2: do we see those bold ads in Australia. It seems 269 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 2: to not be such a feature here. 270 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 10: We're certainly not as polarized as they are in America, 271 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 10: where the whole game is, you know, with voluntary voting 272 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 10: charging up the base. 273 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 6: But we will certainly on the liberal side. 274 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 10: I mean, sure, the Poles are very very close, but 275 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 10: the Liberals have a mountain to climb. And if you 276 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 10: look at what Dunton has done so far to get 277 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 10: himself in the position that he's in. 278 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 6: He's done it by being bold, making bold. 279 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 10: Calls, primarily on the voice and on nuclear power, wherever 280 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 10: you stand on them. That's what's put in in this 281 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:53,680 Speaker 10: position today. He should take a queue from that, and 282 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 10: the Liberals should take a queue from that. 283 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 6: That bold point. 284 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 2: The two really adviceive you could say, polarizing positions he's 285 00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 2: taken are the reasons he is in this position. 286 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 6: And I'd even be you. 287 00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 2: Should be advising him instead of some of his inner circle, 288 00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 2: who I think are telling him to play it safe. 289 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 2: I think this is why we're seeing him. Yeah, kind 290 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 2: of step step back from those. 291 00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:21,120 Speaker 10: Days, very early days, he ought to go bolder, and 292 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:24,240 Speaker 10: I'd be raising the specter of minority government. You know, 293 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:27,080 Speaker 10: everybody knows what a nightmarit was in twenty ten with 294 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:30,840 Speaker 10: minority government. I would be saying, imagine, if you don't 295 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 10: like the way labor's going, imagine labor but minority supported 296 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 10: by the Greens. 297 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:37,200 Speaker 6: Raise that specter. 298 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:40,680 Speaker 10: And then put out policies there to really energize people 299 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 10: and be bold. I think that's the strategy to go 300 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 10: for for the Liberals. 301 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 2: That sounds like an absolutely brilliant idea because the Greens 302 00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 2: have become so radical and it is entirely possible. In fact, 303 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 2: many say it's likely they were going to have a 304 00:16:55,680 --> 00:17:00,560 Speaker 2: labor minority government with the Greens and give even their 305 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:05,160 Speaker 2: stance over the recent years, everything from their crazy economic 306 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 2: policies to their attitude to Israel, that would be frightening 307 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 2: for so many people. So that could be a really 308 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,440 Speaker 2: powerful campaign if the liberals, I think it would get 309 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:16,679 Speaker 2: that right. Yeah. Now, we've also seen a lot of 310 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:21,920 Speaker 2: attention on social media trying to reach younger voters through 311 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 2: Instagram and TikTok. Let's look at this effort from ministers 312 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 2: Chris Bowen and Tania Plibasak. 313 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:33,880 Speaker 4: Nuclear uses forty percent more water than even coal. 314 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, and not only is it per but will Peter 315 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:41,919 Speaker 2: Dutton to do his nuclear plan, he'd actually need this 316 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 2: much water? 317 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:44,320 Speaker 8: Yeah, because he says. 318 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 1: They're going to get a lot more electricia on the 319 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:47,879 Speaker 1: nuclear then we currently get a coal And when you 320 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 1: put that together with the nuclear needing more water, that 321 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:52,640 Speaker 1: means they will need. 322 00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:55,160 Speaker 12: A lot lot of water. 323 00:17:56,920 --> 00:18:01,040 Speaker 2: And this isn't enough. I just don't think think they 324 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:04,560 Speaker 2: do these well, both labor and liberal. I see very 325 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 2: few ads on that platform where I think, yeah, this 326 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:10,719 Speaker 2: one hits the mark. What do you think about that? 327 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:14,879 Speaker 2: Is that speaking to the converted? Is it going to 328 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 2: convince undecided voters? 329 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:19,760 Speaker 10: I don't think it'll can convince a single undecided in 330 00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:21,439 Speaker 10: fifty you have a look at the comments section of 331 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:24,879 Speaker 10: that ad, it gets pretty negative. But look, yes, of 332 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:28,600 Speaker 10: course Instagram does skew younger than mainstream TV, and they're 333 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:30,879 Speaker 10: obviously trying to do that, but does it really skew 334 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,920 Speaker 10: play school young You know, it's like they're in kids 335 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:38,160 Speaker 10: chairs pouring water out to try to make this really 336 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:40,800 Speaker 10: quite simple point, which I don't think is the main 337 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 10: game anyway when it comes to nuclear energy. So I 338 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 10: think it's probably going to be saying there's a little patronizing, 339 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 10: And yes, you're right that they feel a little bit 340 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 10: uncomfortable in the social media area. TikTok in particular labor 341 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:55,919 Speaker 10: really really uncomfortable if you have a look at what 342 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,640 Speaker 10: they're doing. But yeah, they're trying to be the cool kid. 343 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 10: When they're not the cool kid. It's much better to 344 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:04,679 Speaker 10: embrace your weakness and be yourself, which is what Dunton 345 00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 10: is strangely enough doing quite well on TikTok. 346 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 2: He's got a bit of a following on TikTok, which 347 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 2: is surprising. Now before you go, we've got a touch 348 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 2: on Clive Palmer. He tends to spend a lot of 349 00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 2: money on these campaigns. Is now bankrolling a new political 350 00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:24,119 Speaker 2: party called the Trumpet of Patriots, which is supposed to 351 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 2: mirror Donald Trump's policies. But I just think it's such 352 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 2: an absurd name, Trumpet of Patriots. I mean, why wouldn't 353 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 2: you just go for something simple like make Australia Great 354 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 2: Again or make Albow go away? That still says mega 355 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 2: something a bit more. I don't know. This seems like 356 00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:42,919 Speaker 2: a like a. 357 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:44,920 Speaker 6: Satire that's complicated, isn't it. 358 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:46,639 Speaker 10: I can't even remember. I've got to read what was 359 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 10: it Trumpet for Patriot? If it time I hear it, 360 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:50,560 Speaker 10: I've got to try to remember it again. He has 361 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:52,480 Speaker 10: done billboards with make Australia Great Again. 362 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:54,119 Speaker 2: Yeah, I've seen those. Yes. 363 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 6: What I think it does do, though. 364 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 10: Is that it's time he's Labour's attempts to paint Peter 365 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,920 Speaker 10: Dutton as Donald Trump, Because the Donald Trump in this 366 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:04,040 Speaker 10: selection is Clyde Palmer. 367 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:04,640 Speaker 6: Right. 368 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:08,959 Speaker 10: He makes Peter Dutton look mild, moderate considered, and I 369 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:12,360 Speaker 10: think that could be a real positive for That's not a. 370 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 2: Bad point as well, because our media has just been 371 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 2: so utterly deranged in covering anything to do with Donald Trump. 372 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 2: So there is this real negative connotation and labor of 373 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 2: try to paint Dutton as Trump. See if you do 374 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:30,720 Speaker 2: have an actual Trump figure larger than life who's saying 375 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:33,360 Speaker 2: I'm Australia's Donald Trump, then that that's I can only 376 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 2: work for Peter Dutton.

And I can bring you 411 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 2: about a thousand other examples of how irredeemably thick this 412 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:51,200 Speaker 2: woman is. But let's look at the latest example where 413 00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 2: she claims that those who support Donald Trump, that would 414 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:59,399 Speaker 2: be the majority of voters Jennifer, She claims, they don't read. 415 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 14: I would ABC Disney, the mouse who has more money 416 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 14: than God settled with Donald Trump. 417 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 2: I honestly don't know. 418 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 14: You know, I've asked why would ABC?

Now you'll notice the contradiction in 424 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:37,960 Speaker 14: terms MAGA readers would pick up the Washington Post and 425 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:41,880 Speaker 14: they would have more readers. What is the logical fallacy here? 426 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 2: Yes, reader, the audacity of that dim wit is astonishing, 427 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:51,440 Speaker 2: and sticking to those with a room temperature.

And really, with the craziness 445 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:53,119 Speaker 2: of the modern left these days, it's becoming increasingly difficult 446 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:58,360 Speaker 2: to distinguish between satire and lefties losing it. Like this 447 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:02,640 Speaker 2: dude who wants to kick gas white Zionist men out 448 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 2: of the lgbt community. 449 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 12: I'm finally starting to realize that white gay Zionists should 450 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:16,879 Speaker 12: be demoted from being gay, Like it's not okay for 451 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:23,119 Speaker 12: someone to be so open and accepting of queer culture 452 00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:26,200 Speaker 12: or be part of the LGBTQ community when you are 453 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:29,720 Speaker 12: supporting genocide.

Army, 511 00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 2: let's start with us efforts to brokor eight peace still 512 00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:01,720 Speaker 2: between Russia and Ukraine. And it's clear Trump is pulling 513 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 2: out all stops to encourage some would say bully President 514 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 2: Zelenski to agree to a deal. He's launched an attack 515 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:13,360 Speaker 2: on the Ukrainian leader, calling him a dictator without elections 516 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 2: and saying he's done a terrible job. And I mean, 517 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:20,840 Speaker 2: this has shocked the world, But it shouldn't have shocked them, 518 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:23,959 Speaker 2: because if they were paying attention during the election campaign, 519 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 2: it was clear that Donald Trump wants an end to 520 00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 2: this war and he wants to stop sending billions to Ukraine. 521 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:33,120 Speaker 6: Yeah. 522 00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 9: Okay, Look, first of all, let me start by saying 523 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:36,960 Speaker 9: I said it on this program I've set to public 524 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:40,480 Speaker 9: in other places. I've been a firm and solid supporter 525 00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 9: of the war against Russia by Ukraine and for a 526 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 9: variety of reasons. Real quick, the fact we've had this one. 527 00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 9: This is from a real politic perspective, Right, what if 528 00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:54,160 Speaker 9: this war has done. It has degraded and in fact 529 00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:58,400 Speaker 9: almost destroyed the Russian military, degrade almost destroyed the Russian economy. 530 00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 9: Take our essentially are one of our biggest geopolitical foes 531 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 9: off the board for almost a generation. What it's also done, 532 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 9: it has made a very clear and important message to China, 533 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:15,120 Speaker 9: which says, look, if we're willing to go to the 534 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 9: mattresses for Ukraine, which is not as important to us 535 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 9: as Taiwan, imagine what we're gonna do for Taiwan. I 536 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 9: think China understands that, and I think even more importantly, 537 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:28,240 Speaker 9: it has allowed NATO to understand the importance of self 538 00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:30,920 Speaker 9: reliance and the importance of self defense. I think that's 539 00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 9: a vital part of the equation. Look what he said. 540 00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:38,320 Speaker 9: It was outrageous. But I am done condemning Trump for 541 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 9: his crazy statements. I've done it before and I've been burned. Okay, 542 00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 9: he did that with NATO. He said, unhinged things, We're 543 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:49,680 Speaker 9: gonna leave NATO. Well, guess what happened. They called them crazy, 544 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 9: they called them insane. Well, before he made that statement, 545 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 9: the vast majority of NATO countries were not paying their 546 00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:59,920 Speaker 9: two percent of defense spending. After he made those statements, 547 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 9: now the vast majority of those thirty one countries are 548 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:06,720 Speaker 9: in fact paying their two percent. Okay, he said, we're 549 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:10,600 Speaker 9: going to invade Greenland, right, crazy man, What does this 550 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 9: guy say? Well, guess what his point was, Hey, Denmark, 551 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:17,520 Speaker 9: you're not doing your job with Greenland. Greenland's an important 552 00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 9: strategic point. Choke hold o this in the Western Hemisphere, 553 00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:26,280 Speaker 9: and you are not doing your job with time and 554 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:31,280 Speaker 9: money defending and making sure that Chinese and Russian ships 555 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:34,920 Speaker 9: and submarines are not crossing compunity, Well guess what they 556 00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:38,000 Speaker 9: are now. Denmark now is spending more money and time 557 00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:42,400 Speaker 9: in Greenland. So look, I'm done condemning Trump for crazy things. 558 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:45,120 Speaker 9: What do I think is happening here? I think he's 559 00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:48,240 Speaker 9: playing the heel, right, I think he's trying to bring 560 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:52,320 Speaker 9: guten to the negotiating table. Putin has a fear of Trump. 561 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 9: Let's be honest. Why is there a fear of Trump? 562 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:59,680 Speaker 9: Because actually Trump's record the first time around was supporting Ukraine. 563 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:04,920 Speaker 9: For Trump, what did the US give under Barack Obama? 564 00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,840 Speaker 9: They gave them blanket? What did Trump do? He gave 565 00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:11,120 Speaker 9: them weapons. So he's trying to say to God the look, 566 00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:14,720 Speaker 9: I'm on your side, you can trust me. I'm down 567 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 9: with you. And I think that's ultimately what is needed 568 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:19,920 Speaker 9: to end up bropriate peace deal. So let's see what 569 00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:23,080 Speaker 9: happens before we go crazy. 570 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,680 Speaker 2: And what's that line from the Art of War? You 571 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:29,479 Speaker 2: build your enemy a golden bridge to retreat on something 572 00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 2: like that, And I think that's part of this entire strategy. 573 00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:37,040 Speaker 2: But I'm glad you've learned because many other analysts clearly 574 00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:40,960 Speaker 2: haven't learned about waiting and seeing what the impact of 575 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:44,440 Speaker 2: Trump's rehtoric and actions actually are. And in this case, 576 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 2: some of that is already apparent. It's been immediate. We've 577 00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:53,920 Speaker 2: seen a number of European countries being motivated to do more. 578 00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 2: This is what Donald Trump wants. Within hours of Trump's 579 00:32:56,680 --> 00:33:02,720 Speaker 2: comments about Zelensky, European countries to Ukraine support promising increased 580 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 2: defense and security is spending within Day's army. This is 581 00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 2: precisely what Donald Trump wants to see. 582 00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 9: I think people tickle. The Europeans know is reactionary. We 583 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:17,720 Speaker 9: don't know what he's going to do. But if that 584 00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 9: rhetoric that he does which pushes them in the direction 585 00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 9: he wants them to go, it's all negotiating tactic. It's 586 00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:26,600 Speaker 9: all about the art of the deal. Yeah, I'm here 587 00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 9: for it. 588 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 2: And Americans have made it clear they don't want to 589 00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:32,840 Speaker 2: see these forever wars ten years, twenty years. They don't 590 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:36,360 Speaker 2: even want to be involved financially in these wars. Now 591 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 2: contrasts that to how President Biden made executive decisions that 592 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:45,640 Speaker 2: some of them he wasn't anyone aware of. According to 593 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:49,040 Speaker 2: Speaker Mike Johnson, have a listen to this story real quickly. 594 00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:51,760 Speaker 17: Miss President can I ask you a question. I cannot 595 00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:54,520 Speaker 17: answer this from my constituents in Louisiana. 596 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 9: Sir, why did you. 597 00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:59,840 Speaker 17: Pause llenng exports to Europe? Like I don't understand. You know, look, 598 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,440 Speaker 17: find natural gas is in great demand by our allies. 599 00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 17: Why would you do that because you understand we just 600 00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:07,440 Speaker 17: talked about Ukraine. You understand your fuel in Vladimir Putin's 601 00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:09,280 Speaker 17: war machine because they got to get their gas from. 602 00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:09,759 Speaker 6: Him, you know. 603 00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:12,480 Speaker 17: And he looks at me, stunned with this, and he 604 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:13,799 Speaker 17: said I didn't. 605 00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:14,440 Speaker 6: I didn't do that. 606 00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:17,560 Speaker 17: And I said, miss President, yes you did. It was 607 00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:19,440 Speaker 17: an executive order like you know, three weeks ago. And 608 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:20,919 Speaker 17: he goes, no, I didn't do that, and he's arguing 609 00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:24,359 Speaker 17: with me. I said, miss President, respectfully, can I could 610 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:26,040 Speaker 17: I go out here and ask your secretary to print 611 00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:27,799 Speaker 17: it out. We'll read it together. You definitely did that, 612 00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:31,439 Speaker 17: and he goes, oh, you talk about natural gas? Yes, sir, 613 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:34,239 Speaker 17: he said, oh no, did you misunderstand? He said what 614 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:36,520 Speaker 17: I did is I signed this thing to We're going 615 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:40,200 Speaker 17: to conduct a study on the effects of LERG. I said, no, 616 00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 17: you're not, sir, you paused it. I know I have 617 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:45,200 Speaker 17: the terminal the export terminals in my state. I talked 618 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:47,960 Speaker 17: to those people this morning, your this is doing massive 619 00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:49,720 Speaker 17: damage to our economy, national security. 620 00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:51,879 Speaker 2: It occurred to me, Barry, he. 621 00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:52,640 Speaker 6: Was not lying to me. 622 00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 17: He genuinely did not know what he had signed. And 623 00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 17: I walked out of that meeting with fear and loathing. 624 00:34:57,320 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 2: Will we ever know who was making those decisions during 625 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:06,839 Speaker 2: those four years? And again you talk about retorick versus reality. 626 00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 2: And despite what Donald Trump has said, even during his 627 00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:14,400 Speaker 2: first term, he was in Europe warning the Germans about 628 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:18,920 Speaker 2: becoming reliant on Russian energy, telling them that this was 629 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:21,200 Speaker 2: going to cause them issues down the track, and they 630 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:25,360 Speaker 2: laughed at him, Army. The contrast between the two leaders 631 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:30,399 Speaker 2: could not be greater. Can we just. 632 00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:33,840 Speaker 9: Let Biden go the long good night? Do we really 633 00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:37,080 Speaker 9: have to go over all this? Oh the fuck? 634 00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:37,680 Speaker 12: Yes. 635 00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:40,960 Speaker 2: I want to know who was making the decisions. I 636 00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:44,640 Speaker 2: want to know who was ruling the world, who was 637 00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:47,200 Speaker 2: in the chair as the leader of the free world, 638 00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:49,280 Speaker 2: Because it appears it wasn't Joe Biden. 639 00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:53,920 Speaker 9: I want this story to be apocryphal, okay, because it is. 640 00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 9: It was truth, and I have no reason to doubt 641 00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,360 Speaker 9: Speaker Johnson. It is one of the worst things I 642 00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:02,839 Speaker 9: have ever heard. The man didn't know that he was 643 00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:06,919 Speaker 9: pausing natural gas shipments at the US. I mean, that's 644 00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:12,040 Speaker 9: crazy town if that's true. Look, this is exactly why 645 00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:14,080 Speaker 9: they You want to know who was in charge. It 646 00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:17,480 Speaker 9: was a It was doctor Jill Biden, right, the greatest 647 00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:21,239 Speaker 9: doctor says doctor Pepper and doctor j And it was 648 00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:25,319 Speaker 9: a cadre of unelected officials that were primarily from the 649 00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:29,280 Speaker 9: bamadministration who wrung the show. Of course it wasn't Joe Biden. 650 00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:33,000 Speaker 9: When you're talking about rhetoric versus reality, Biden wasn't living 651 00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:35,760 Speaker 9: in reality. Are you kidding me? He didn't know reality 652 00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 9: was Frankly Luita. That's the charitable version of this. The 653 00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:45,279 Speaker 9: uncharitable version is that, look, he knew exactly what you're 654 00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:49,160 Speaker 9: saying and exactly what he's doing, and he sees that 655 00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:53,319 Speaker 9: our energy independence as an evil because he is in 656 00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:56,239 Speaker 9: the pocket of the Green New Deal people, and he 657 00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:59,759 Speaker 9: simply wanted to make sure we had no ability to 658 00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:03,600 Speaker 9: have energy independence ourselves and no way to make money 659 00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:06,279 Speaker 9: on the stock. Even though the one thing you want 660 00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:08,440 Speaker 9: to do is you want to decrease again, going back 661 00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:13,839 Speaker 9: to Ukraine, decrease European dependence on Russian natural gas the 662 00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:17,239 Speaker 9: only lifeline Russia has. And how do you cut that 663 00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:21,359 Speaker 9: is by increasing and selling our natural gas to Europe. Look, 664 00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:24,439 Speaker 9: the whole thing is crazy, anyway, look at it. It's terrible, sad. 665 00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:28,960 Speaker 2: Gee, let's move on, let's move on. Let's talk about 666 00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:31,920 Speaker 2: the UK. Our great friend Douglas Murray has written a 667 00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 2: fantastic piece about a poll that was released this week 668 00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:40,080 Speaker 2: showing that only forty one percent of young British people, 669 00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:44,960 Speaker 2: that's young people eighteen to twenty seven felt proud to 670 00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:49,160 Speaker 2: be British, just forty one percent. And you contrast that 671 00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:52,320 Speaker 2: to just twenty one years ago, back in two thousand 672 00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:56,960 Speaker 2: and four, the figure was eighty percent Army and I 673 00:37:57,000 --> 00:38:01,120 Speaker 2: would think this is not confined to the UK. This 674 00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:05,319 Speaker 2: is a phenomenon we're seeing in the Western world. And 675 00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 2: I would argue it's a dangerous phenomenon. 676 00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:11,760 Speaker 9: Oh, it's not just that dangerous phenomenons. It's the death 677 00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:16,520 Speaker 9: of Western culture and Western supremacy. If that trend continues, 678 00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 9: it's incredibly dangerous, it's incredibly awful. And look, Michelle Holdback 679 00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:27,640 Speaker 9: wrote this phenomenal book called Submission, and it was it 680 00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:30,840 Speaker 9: was I recommend everyone read. It's about how It was 681 00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:35,000 Speaker 9: a novel about how Islam took over France, and a 682 00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:36,839 Speaker 9: large part of that was because there was a lack 683 00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:40,239 Speaker 9: of French nationalism and the degradation of French nationalism. If 684 00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:43,359 Speaker 9: you indulge me with two personal stories, I think exemplifies this. 685 00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:46,319 Speaker 9: If you don't mind read A friend friends of mine, 686 00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:48,560 Speaker 9: visited it from from England a couple of years ago, 687 00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:52,600 Speaker 9: and their young daughter remarked to us and to their parents, 688 00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:56,600 Speaker 9: She's like, I don't understand why there's so many American flags. 689 00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:59,600 Speaker 9: That she was labrigased by it because the Union Jack 690 00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:03,080 Speaker 9: is flown nowhere in England. And then another story that 691 00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:07,319 Speaker 9: I've told before but it bears repeating, is that here 692 00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:09,600 Speaker 9: in the US, you know, my coffee shop that I 693 00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:12,879 Speaker 9: go to, like most coffee shops, right left leaning, and 694 00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 9: during Gay Pride Month, they have the Gay Pride flag up. 695 00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:21,240 Speaker 9: And during Black History Month and I'm sorry doing Juneteenth, 696 00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:23,719 Speaker 9: they have a Juneteenth flag up. You don't flag they 697 00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:28,000 Speaker 9: don't have up during the Fourth of July the American flag. Right, 698 00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 9: This is a problem we have with the left. The 699 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:33,880 Speaker 9: left wants to destroy patriotism because when you destroy patriotism. 700 00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:36,640 Speaker 9: That's how you are able to remake society in their 701 00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:40,160 Speaker 9: own warped image. That's the goal, you know. During the 702 00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:44,400 Speaker 9: Spanish Civil War, Franco remarked, there are five there are 703 00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:49,840 Speaker 9: four nationalist columns approaching Madrid, and there's a fifth column 704 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:53,200 Speaker 9: in Madrid looking to attack from within. That is what 705 00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:56,360 Speaker 9: the left is. The hard left is a fifth column 706 00:39:56,520 --> 00:40:01,320 Speaker 9: inside the United States and inside Western because they see 707 00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:06,960 Speaker 9: hatreotism as a wall against them, buttressing American society and 708 00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:10,000 Speaker 9: Western society, and they don't like that. They don't want that. 709 00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:14,560 Speaker 9: The good news is is that Trump he really made 710 00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:17,000 Speaker 9: massive strides with young people. 711 00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:17,400 Speaker 6: In this country. 712 00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:21,040 Speaker 9: We're hoping that gen Z is actually flipping the script 713 00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:24,560 Speaker 9: and will actually move more toward the Republican column and 714 00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:27,080 Speaker 9: more toward patriotism. And by the way, there's a fasting 715 00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:30,040 Speaker 9: article recently in The Atlantic about the youth and said 716 00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:32,319 Speaker 9: Covid is one of the major reasons why the youth 717 00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:34,920 Speaker 9: has moved to the right, because they saw their freedoms 718 00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:37,399 Speaker 9: being taken away and they didn't like it. So I'm 719 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:39,640 Speaker 9: hoping there's hope we'll see. 720 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:44,560 Speaker 2: Well, let's hype, sorry, I mean, because we said right 721 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:47,720 Speaker 2: here in Australia country where every citizen should be proud 722 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:51,640 Speaker 2: that so many youngsters have got that anti West sentiment. 723 00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:54,800 Speaker 2: Before you go, I just want to quickly ask you 724 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:58,239 Speaker 2: about this latest executive order we're saying from Donald Trump. 725 00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:01,880 Speaker 2: He's probably signed more since this one. Yesterday, he signed 726 00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:06,000 Speaker 2: an order to expand access to IVF and other fertility 727 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:10,360 Speaker 2: treatments through the reduction of out of pocket costs. Amy, 728 00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:14,080 Speaker 2: I'm sure we were told repeatedly throughout the election campaign 729 00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:19,279 Speaker 2: that Republicans wanted to ban IVF altogether. Obviously that's not 730 00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:19,800 Speaker 2: the case. 731 00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:23,640 Speaker 9: No, it's exactly this. You know, this is the trunk 732 00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:27,800 Speaker 9: Dranger syndrome exemplified right where everybody was out there saying 733 00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:30,920 Speaker 9: that Trump's against IVF just could take away the ability 734 00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:33,920 Speaker 9: to have children. The exact ops he telegraphed this. He 735 00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:36,880 Speaker 9: said he was supporter of IVF, he wanted to do this. 736 00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:39,560 Speaker 9: It's exactly what it did. Unfortunately, there are a lot 737 00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:41,960 Speaker 9: of people on the right who are actually condemning this. 738 00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:44,400 Speaker 9: I think this is an extremely pro life, pro family. 739 00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:47,799 Speaker 9: I think it's great, I think it's wonderful, and this 740 00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:48,760 Speaker 9: is how we lose elections. 741 00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:49,919 Speaker 6: We got to be careful. 742 00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:53,960 Speaker 2: Mey Horowitz, Thank you so much for your time. Tonight 743 00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:58,719 Speaker 2: still to come. The latest on Elon Musk's baby dramas a. 744 00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:11,759 Speaker 2: Kinsey Schofield has the details. Welcome back. Joining me now 745 00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:16,840 Speaker 2: is celebrity and role commentator Kinsey Schofield Kinsey. Some spicy 746 00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:21,040 Speaker 2: tweets between Elon Musk and Ashley Saint Clair have been uncovered, 747 00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:24,080 Speaker 2: following claims from Saint Clair that the pair have had 748 00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:28,359 Speaker 2: a child together. This would be Elon's thirteenth child. I 749 00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:31,040 Speaker 2: think the text are a little bit tawdry. Do we 750 00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:35,200 Speaker 2: have any confirmation yet of what is actually happening here? 751 00:42:37,080 --> 00:42:38,719 Speaker 8: I mean, you're exactly right. 752 00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:41,080 Speaker 18: I blush looking at the screen right now at some 753 00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:44,040 Speaker 18: of those messages, it appears that there's a little bit 754 00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:46,560 Speaker 18: of fomo going on, and that might be one of 755 00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:49,600 Speaker 18: the reasons why this is all kind of exploding at 756 00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:53,480 Speaker 18: this point in time. Imagine being Ashley watching Elon living 757 00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:57,440 Speaker 18: his best life, sitting next to the President and just 758 00:42:57,760 --> 00:43:00,160 Speaker 18: kind of I'm sure that she feels a little but 759 00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:01,600 Speaker 18: excluded after. 760 00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:03,839 Speaker 8: Creating with him. 761 00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 18: But Elon, you know, there are rumors he has a 762 00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:11,360 Speaker 18: child with Amber heard we actually don't even know the 763 00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:15,080 Speaker 18: total when it comes to Elon and his babies. 764 00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:20,640 Speaker 2: So thirteen is just a guess, is it? My gosh? 765 00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:26,759 Speaker 2: That is just yes, well exactly because if there could 766 00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:30,279 Speaker 2: be any number of baby mammas around the world who 767 00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:34,560 Speaker 2: are just quietly raising their kids and not speaking with 768 00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:38,920 Speaker 2: a New York poster. Now, an acquaintance of Ashley Saint 769 00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:42,440 Speaker 2: Clair has said that the reason why she went public 770 00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:45,760 Speaker 2: with news of the pair's baby was because Elon Musk 771 00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:49,600 Speaker 2: had ghosted her on Valentine's Day, and, according to Saint Clair, 772 00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:54,680 Speaker 2: has been ghosting her ever since. The acquaintance Kylie Kramer 773 00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:58,799 Speaker 2: made these claims on x She wrote, seems like she 774 00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:02,279 Speaker 2: wasn't getting what she wanted, was emotional and hurt on 775 00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:06,880 Speaker 2: Valentine's and decided to parade her crazy on the front porch, 776 00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:10,360 Speaker 2: thinking people would be sympathetic to her as a victim 777 00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:15,520 Speaker 2: of a powerful, wealthy man. How reliable is this account 778 00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:18,280 Speaker 2: because she doesn't seem like too much of a friend 779 00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:20,000 Speaker 2: with it with those comments. 780 00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:23,360 Speaker 18: Well, that's a very good point, But I think that 781 00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:26,640 Speaker 18: she is taking a side that I've seen a lot 782 00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:30,200 Speaker 18: of females in the Conservative Party take, because these aren't 783 00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:31,360 Speaker 18: conservative values. 784 00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:32,799 Speaker 8: To have a baby with. 785 00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:36,560 Speaker 18: A man that's not your husband, and you know that's 786 00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:39,480 Speaker 18: just not really the conservative way. So I do think 787 00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:43,000 Speaker 18: that there is a lot of I don't know, judgment 788 00:44:43,239 --> 00:44:46,000 Speaker 18: coming from the party when it comes to this woman 789 00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:49,719 Speaker 18: who's supposed to be a conservative influencer, pushing morals and 790 00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:54,480 Speaker 18: values and having a strong character, having a baby out 791 00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:57,920 Speaker 18: of wedlock with one of the most powerful men in 792 00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:01,080 Speaker 18: the world, and then complaining about it wanting sympathy. You're 793 00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:04,440 Speaker 18: supposed to be, You're supposed to be somebody that people 794 00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:07,799 Speaker 18: can look up to as a quote unquote conservative influencer. 795 00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:12,080 Speaker 2: I don't think that's the issue. I don't think that's 796 00:45:12,120 --> 00:45:14,040 Speaker 2: why they're having a go at her, because from what 797 00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:18,040 Speaker 2: I understand, she already was a single mumple before this child. 798 00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:22,280 Speaker 2: I think it's to do with going public. That's where 799 00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:27,880 Speaker 2: the angst comes from, about seeking attention or trying to 800 00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:32,799 Speaker 2: make something that should be a private affair into you know, 801 00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:36,600 Speaker 2: the tabloid news. I think that's where there's a bit 802 00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:40,200 Speaker 2: of heat. Whether that's fair or unfair is a discussion 803 00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:44,200 Speaker 2: for another day. Let's talk about one of our favorite 804 00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:47,799 Speaker 2: topics of the moment, the entire Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds 805 00:45:47,880 --> 00:45:52,280 Speaker 2: Justin Baldoni catastrophe. A saur s whit attended the recording 806 00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:58,600 Speaker 2: of Saturday Night Live's fiftieth anniversary show, told TMZ that Blake, Lively, 807 00:45:58,680 --> 00:46:01,480 Speaker 2: and Ryan Reynolds were the talk of the entire evening. 808 00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:04,120 Speaker 2: Many of the guests avoided them, and many of the 809 00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:09,560 Speaker 2: guests were big Hollywood stars, and Blake has shared this 810 00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:14,680 Speaker 2: intimate moment with alleged comedian Amy Schumer. According to a 811 00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:19,759 Speaker 2: professional libreader, during this footage, Blake told Schumer, I need 812 00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:23,800 Speaker 2: this hug so much, before glancing over at her husband, 813 00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:27,160 Speaker 2: Ryan Reynolds and saying, God help me. You're going to 814 00:46:27,239 --> 00:46:32,040 Speaker 2: be okay. Schumer responded, they're projecting onto him. This saga 815 00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:35,440 Speaker 2: isn't going to end anytime soon, is it, Kinsey, Because 816 00:46:35,440 --> 00:46:38,240 Speaker 2: we've got multiple court cases. 817 00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:43,800 Speaker 18: It's five the last day checked and the joke Ryan 818 00:46:43,880 --> 00:46:48,200 Speaker 18: Reynolds stands up and makes during the three hour special 819 00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:51,239 Speaker 18: Saturday Night Live Special, And you see the look on 820 00:46:51,320 --> 00:46:52,439 Speaker 18: Kevin Castner's face. 821 00:46:52,480 --> 00:46:54,160 Speaker 8: He's not amused. Kevin Castner. 822 00:46:54,520 --> 00:46:56,719 Speaker 18: You know, it looks like Kevin Castner thinks that this 823 00:46:56,880 --> 00:46:59,439 Speaker 18: is in Porteste. But Ryan kind of makes a joke. 824 00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:03,080 Speaker 18: You heard when asked if he's how he's doing. You know, 825 00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:07,840 Speaker 18: you don't joke about sexual harassment. And now the reports 826 00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:10,239 Speaker 18: are that Baldoni's team are just going to. 827 00:47:10,239 --> 00:47:12,120 Speaker 8: Take that little clip and head on. 828 00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:15,719 Speaker 18: Over into the courtroom a year from now and utilize 829 00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:20,080 Speaker 18: that to prove that potentially, you know, this is a 830 00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:24,440 Speaker 18: contradictory to Blake and Ryan's claim that they have all 831 00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:27,920 Speaker 18: of this emotional distress over justin Baldoni's behavior on the 832 00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:29,560 Speaker 18: set of It ends with us. 833 00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:34,000 Speaker 2: Now, let's turn our attention to Meghan Markol. She's had 834 00:47:34,040 --> 00:47:37,760 Speaker 2: a rebrand of her lifestyle line. I'm devastated about this, Kinsey, 835 00:47:37,800 --> 00:47:41,680 Speaker 2: because you know how much I've liked making fun of 836 00:47:42,160 --> 00:47:47,040 Speaker 2: American Riviera Orchid like the dumbest combination of names you've 837 00:47:47,080 --> 00:47:49,240 Speaker 2: ever put together. It's like a he gave the task 838 00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:51,520 Speaker 2: to an eight year old child and said, come up 839 00:47:51,560 --> 00:47:53,399 Speaker 2: with a fancy name. That's what they would that could 840 00:47:53,400 --> 00:47:57,600 Speaker 2: come up with. So that's gone. It's now called as ever. 841 00:47:58,520 --> 00:48:02,839 Speaker 2: But not only has she copied the logo allegedly, but 842 00:48:02,920 --> 00:48:06,040 Speaker 2: it's now come to light that a boutique in New York, 843 00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:10,839 Speaker 2: a clothing label, has been operating under that same name 844 00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:15,120 Speaker 2: for around a decade. Can say this is an ideal. 845 00:48:16,360 --> 00:48:20,359 Speaker 18: Yeah, they have, and you know they have said we 846 00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:23,520 Speaker 18: they're begging their followers please help us. We see our 847 00:48:23,600 --> 00:48:26,600 Speaker 18: digital footprint shrinking with every markll mention. 848 00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:28,879 Speaker 8: There's real concern there that this. 849 00:48:28,800 --> 00:48:33,600 Speaker 18: Could jeopardize their business established since twenty thirteen Rita. There's 850 00:48:33,680 --> 00:48:37,879 Speaker 18: also a professional photography company with the exact same name. 851 00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:40,840 Speaker 8: Does this woman not own an owner? 852 00:48:41,120 --> 00:48:44,640 Speaker 18: To do a quick Google search, Megan doesn't even own 853 00:48:44,680 --> 00:48:47,960 Speaker 18: the trademark yet for this. So you see how she 854 00:48:48,200 --> 00:48:52,120 Speaker 18: rushes things with little to no due diligence, and it 855 00:48:52,160 --> 00:48:55,400 Speaker 18: helps you to understand why she was not able to 856 00:48:55,560 --> 00:48:59,400 Speaker 18: function properly within the structure of the British royal. 857 00:48:59,239 --> 00:49:01,839 Speaker 8: Family, go by the rules. 858 00:49:01,600 --> 00:49:05,000 Speaker 18: They you know there are there's protocols in places for 859 00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:08,719 Speaker 18: a reason, and she just could not function in that structure. 860 00:49:11,320 --> 00:49:14,160 Speaker 2: No, and never mind the name. We've focused so much 861 00:49:14,200 --> 00:49:18,200 Speaker 2: on the silly name and now this borrowed name. What 862 00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:21,480 Speaker 2: is this website actually going to do? Because the last 863 00:49:21,560 --> 00:49:25,000 Speaker 2: we heard, she'd moved about three jars of strawberry jam, 864 00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:29,400 Speaker 2: gave them away to some prominent people, but does seemed 865 00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:33,440 Speaker 2: to be much product or services on offer on this website? 866 00:49:33,440 --> 00:49:35,440 Speaker 2: So I don't know how much of a lifestyle brand 867 00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:38,880 Speaker 2: it is yet. Kinsisco, Phil, thanks for your time tonight, 868 00:49:38,960 --> 00:49:41,640 Speaker 2: and that's it from me.
