Carolette's start with 17 00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:56,360 Speaker 3: one of the most disturbing stories of the year, the 18 00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 3: attack against baby Luca in a Brisbane park. 19 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 2: Police say the foreign. 20 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 3: National who allegedly poured boiling coffee on this nine month 21 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:09,639 Speaker 3: old baby in a Brisbane park last month has fled 22 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:14,039 Speaker 3: the country before police could confirm his identity. Baby Lucas 23 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:18,480 Speaker 3: suffered life threatening burns and has undergone multiple surgeries since 24 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 3: the August twenty seven attack, including skin graps. Police say 25 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:27,800 Speaker 3: the accused left the country a day before they were 26 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:29,840 Speaker 3: able to confirm his identity. 27 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 2: A warrant has. 28 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:34,800 Speaker 3: Been obtained for his arrest for acts intending to cause 29 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:39,120 Speaker 3: grievous bodily harm. Caroline, what else can you tell me 30 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 3: about this investigation and the likelihood of bringing this alleged 31 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 3: defender to justice. 32 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 6: Well, I guess the likelihood has got just that little 33 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 6: bit lower, reader, because as we now know, this man 34 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 6: has evaded police and managed to get out of the 35 00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 6: country just twelve hours before police identified him in what 36 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 6: has to be the most sickening senseless crime of the 37 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:11,360 Speaker 6: year so far. It just discussed me every time I 38 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 6: hear or read anything about this case. Police have said 39 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 6: that this suspect had been using counter surveillance techniques in 40 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 6: order to evade arrest, which does seem to suggest some 41 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:28,920 Speaker 6: degree of sophistication on the offender's part. It's just a 42 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 6: question now in working with the international and interstate agencies, 43 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 6: because this man allegedly had been staying in New South 44 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 6: Wales for some of the time that he'd been coming 45 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:44,640 Speaker 6: in between here and overseas. We don't know where he's foreign. 46 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 6: Police won't say since twenty nineteen, whether they can track 47 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 6: him down in the foreign country, whether there's any sort 48 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:57,400 Speaker 6: of extradition agreement wherever he ends up being. You've just 49 00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 6: got to hope that this man can be brought to 50 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 6: justice because what's happened here is absolutely horrific. I mean, 51 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 6: this poor family and the trauma that baby Luca and 52 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 6: his parents have gone through now is just beyond words. 53 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:19,239 Speaker 6: And the mother has said that she would support capital 54 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 6: punishment for Luca's attacker, and I think, well, that's not 55 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:27,920 Speaker 6: an option in Australia. Obviously, even the most ardent opposers 56 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:31,520 Speaker 6: of the death penalty would find that hard to disagree with. 57 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 2: Absolutely. 58 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 3: Now to Victoria and the Liberal Party has acted their 59 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 3: candidate for the seat of Chisholm. They're now going to 60 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 3: be putting into that seat former Higgins MP Katie Allen. 61 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 3: Allen was the candidate for Higgins, which was abolish when 62 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 3: electoral boundaries were redrawn, and it seems this decision has 63 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 3: really upset the rank and file members at Chisholm, who 64 00:03:58,200 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 3: had no say in the matter. 65 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 2: I've got copy of. 66 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 3: An internal party letter from the Electorate secretary which says, 67 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 3: in my time in the party, I have never seen 68 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 3: as much sadness amongst members as I have these past 69 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 3: twenty four hours without any pre selection or member input. 70 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 3: I can understand why many of you are questioning the 71 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 3: legitimacy of this decision. Unlike Labor, we value membership and 72 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 3: rank and file pre selections. We value democracy with value transparency, 73 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 3: we value fairness. 74 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:34,040 Speaker 2: Carolina Katie Allen is from Tuak. 75 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,840 Speaker 3: She lives a very different lifestyle to the average voter 76 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 3: in Chisholm. 77 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 2: How do you see this decision? 78 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 6: Well, I can't help but see this decision as one 79 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 6: that seems to be based almost entirely on her sex. 80 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 6: Read I mean the fact that she's a woman. And 81 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 6: I say that not because I don't think she'd be 82 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:58,159 Speaker 6: a competent and per she's been an MP before. She's 83 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 6: a pediatrician, and I have a highest regard for people 84 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 6: who work with six children. But the Liberal Party has 85 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,719 Speaker 6: acknowledged that it needs to address what's been called its 86 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 6: women's problem, and in order to do that, before the 87 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 6: next election, they need to pre select something like seventy 88 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 6: percent of her candidates being women in order to achieve 89 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 6: that gender parody. Now, I know a lot of women 90 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 6: out there made cheer that there's a woman who's now 91 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 6: going to be running for the Liberals, but a lot 92 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:34,480 Speaker 6: of women as well don't like that sort of tokenism. 93 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 6: And that's what it appears to be, even if it 94 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,119 Speaker 6: may not be the case. That's how it at least 95 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:44,919 Speaker 6: appears with the election electorate redistribution. It's unfortunate that she 96 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 6: wasn't able to run for Higgins again, but is it 97 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:54,919 Speaker 6: fair to displace someone who was the pre selected candidate. 98 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 6: I understand why it would have blind signed it blindsided 99 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 6: a lot of can file members yes, and less them 100 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:02,799 Speaker 6: feeling so angry. 101 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 3: I think around thirty percent of a former electorate is 102 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,719 Speaker 3: now part of Chisholm. But in that thirty percent, there's 103 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:15,039 Speaker 3: from what I understand, nine boots and she lost eight 104 00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 3: of them. So that tells you a little bit but 105 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,599 Speaker 3: about how she may perform at the coming election, but 106 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 3: we'll wait and see. She is a very good fundraiser 107 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 3: and is a hard worker, certainly Now former South Australian 108 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 3: Opposition leader David Spears is insisting that this. 109 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 2: Footage of him appearing to snort. 110 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 3: White powder surrounded by wine and liquor bottles is a 111 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 3: deep fake. The clip, captured on June thirty this year, 112 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 3: was obtained by the Adelaide Advertiser. Spears says he strongly 113 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:52,360 Speaker 3: disputes the authenticity of the video. He's told the Advertiser 114 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:55,479 Speaker 3: he believes it is a deep fake or elaborate hoax, 115 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 3: adding I was overseas for two weeks in June and 116 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:02,039 Speaker 3: during that time other per since had access to my home, 117 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 3: giving rise to the opportunity for someone to obtain footage 118 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 3: of my premises. I am extremely disappointed by this and 119 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 3: a sure South Australians that I would never take illicit substances. 120 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 3: I never have and I never will. Now, we're not 121 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 3: suggesting any wrongdoing on mister Spears's behalf here, but we're 122 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 3: not saying these substances are even illegal. But Caroline, this 123 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 3: is an astonishing story, a very twenty twenty four story. 124 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 7: It is. 125 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 6: Remember Brita when the excuse when politicians and other high 126 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 6: profile people were caught out doing bad things online, they 127 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 6: would say I've been hacked, someone's locked into my account 128 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 6: and sexted someone. Now the excuse for twenty twenty four 129 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 6: seems to be it's a deep fake. But the newspaper 130 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,559 Speaker 6: the Advertiser, who obtained these images have said they've checked 131 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 6: the metadata. He was in the country when they were taken. 132 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 6: They've also consulted with a forensics expert that the courts 133 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 6: used that has said it doesn't appear that there were 134 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 6: any any tampering or alterations, so it doesn't appear to 135 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 6: be exactly how David Spears may be putting it. 136 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 3: Caroline Marcus, thank you for your time this evening. Now 137 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 3: they're left up becoming increasingly desperate and resorting to some 138 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 3: ugly tactics. That's evident in the media too, with far 139 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 3: left side criche publishing this bit of slander against Liberal 140 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 3: leader Peter Dutta, and they have concluded that he is 141 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 3: racist and this is their evidence. 142 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:31,679 Speaker 2: Brace yourself. 143 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:35,200 Speaker 3: So the number one reason he walked out of Parliament 144 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 3: rather than here, the then Prime Minister Kevin Wright apologized 145 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 3: to the so called stolen generations. He did mention the 146 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 3: problem of rising African gang violence in Melbourne. He pointed 147 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:50,199 Speaker 3: out the need to counter Chinese aggression to keep peace 148 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 3: in our region, and of course, most recently he called 149 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 3: for a pause on visas for Gazans until thoroughchecks could 150 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 3: be conducted. Joining me now as former Speaker of the 151 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 3: House and Liberal National MP for Fisher Andrew Wallace. Andrew, 152 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 3: what is your response to your leader being labeled racist? 153 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,560 Speaker 8: Well, you can always count on the left Rita to 154 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 8: pull out the racist card when they're in strife, and 155 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 8: boy are they in strife now. Look, I've known Peter 156 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 8: for a long time. He's been a police officer for 157 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:30,200 Speaker 8: nine years. He's been the Immigration Minister, the Home Affairs Minister. 158 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 8: He has had some tough portfolios and now he's in 159 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 8: his toughest portfolio as the leader. 160 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 9: Of the Opposition. 161 00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 8: But I can tell you now, and I can tell 162 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 8: you your viewers, that you will not find a man 163 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 8: who is more committed to the safety and security. 164 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 9: Of Australians than Peter Dutton. 165 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,960 Speaker 8: And look, when you've seen everything that's gone on with 166 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 8: Andrew Giles as the Immigration Minister and how poorly the 167 00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 8: Labor Party are conducting themselves from a national security perspective, 168 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,200 Speaker 8: what do you want? Do you want someone like Andrew 169 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 8: Giles looking after the country? From an immigration perspective, or 170 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 8: do you want someone like Peter Dutton calling the shots? 171 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 9: I know which I'd rather. 172 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 2: Do you think you should consider legal action here? 173 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:22,079 Speaker 3: To be labeled a racist so blatantly by a publication, 174 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 3: it goes beyond just the sort of criticism politicians expect 175 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 3: to get. 176 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 2: From the media. 177 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 8: Well, Rita, I've been a barrister for over twenty years 178 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 8: and my first advice to anybody that is considering legal 179 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 8: action is don't No one wins when you go down 180 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 8: that route. 181 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,959 Speaker 9: It becomes a win for lawyers and lawyers only. 182 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 8: So you know, if Peter was to ask me my views, 183 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,520 Speaker 8: I'd say no, But of course it's a matter for Peter. 184 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 9: But you know, this is not the first time we've 185 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,199 Speaker 9: heard Peter labeled as that. 186 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 8: We heard the Member Orringa in the Parliament recently. Yes, 187 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 8: this is someone who has stood on a platform of 188 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 8: integrity and you know when someone is really struggling politically 189 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 8: when they pull a racist card. 190 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 3: Absolutely, and that was quite a bizarre performance from Zali 191 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 3: Steel because she withdrew the comment in parliament, then came 192 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 3: on Sky News and repeated it. Now let's move along 193 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:27,079 Speaker 3: to the federal government. Planning to introduce a social media 194 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:31,319 Speaker 3: band for children nationwide within the next twelve months. The 195 00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:35,319 Speaker 3: age limit has not yet been determined. The Prime ministers 196 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:39,319 Speaker 3: following South Australia's lead here they are proposing a band 197 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:44,320 Speaker 3: for those aged thirteen and under. But Andrew, how will 198 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 3: this be in force? How will this age verification work? 199 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:51,200 Speaker 3: It doesn't work on porn sites, haws are going to 200 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:53,200 Speaker 3: work with social media sites? 201 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 9: Well read, let me correct you on something there. 202 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 8: Anthony Alberizi has been dragged, kicking and screaming on his 203 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 8: ultimate position in relation to social media bands. In June 204 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 8: of this year, Peter Dutton came out very strongly and 205 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 8: said that a Dutton elected government would ensure that we 206 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 8: had a minimum of sixteen years of age for social 207 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 8: media and we would do that in the first hundred days. Now, 208 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 8: it's really interesting that Peter Melanowskis came out yesterday and 209 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 8: gave a watered down version of that. But what it 210 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 8: did it made Anthony Albaneasy look absolutely impotent because he 211 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 8: was the one that stood up the Select Committee on 212 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 8: which I'm on, which is examining this very issue. So 213 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 8: we are still processing and having evidence. 214 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:48,840 Speaker 9: Before us and because Peter Melanowskis came out and said 215 00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 9: what he said. 216 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:55,720 Speaker 8: Yesterday, Elbows jumped out in a half baked measure, felt 217 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 8: that he really needed to make a stand on this. 218 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 8: But he's still he's still can't say what age group 219 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:05,559 Speaker 8: this will apply to. Well, you know, the Coalition has 220 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 8: been very strong on this. Peter Dutton has led the 221 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 8: way on this from as early as June this year, 222 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:14,200 Speaker 8: saying that we would mandate a minimum age of sixteen. 223 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 8: What parents are telling me is that they need that 224 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 8: legal protection because you know, you know, I don't know 225 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 8: if you're a parent, reader, but certainly I've had four 226 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 8: daughters and kids will always use the oh you know, 227 00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 8: Mary's mum and dad let her. Why won't you let 228 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 8: me line We've all experienced as. 229 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:36,719 Speaker 2: There's always the peer pressure. Andrew Willis, thanks for. 230 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 9: Your time, Thanks reader. 231 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 3: Joining me now is commentator and best selling author Douglas 232 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:46,440 Speaker 3: Murray Douglas. The first and only debate between Kamala Harris 233 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 3: and Donald Trump is just hours away. 234 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 2: The VEEPS team. 235 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:53,320 Speaker 3: Has been desperately trying to change the agree to debate rules. 236 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 3: If you were advising the Vice president, how would you 237 00:13:56,960 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 3: tell her to approach this clash. 238 00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 5: Well, I mean, she's got several problems on her hands, 239 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 5: hasn't she, Because on the one hand, she's got to 240 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 5: make sure that she says absolutely nothing, and she's quite 241 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 5: good at that. It has to be said, but she 242 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:20,000 Speaker 5: has to say absolutely nothing because we know that many 243 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 5: of the policies that she would bring in, as Bernie 244 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 5: Sanders admitted this week, would be pretty radical and would 245 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 5: put off the public. At the same time, there might 246 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 5: still be some journalists in America and elsewhere who will 247 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 5: notice that she has to say something. I suspect that 248 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 5: what she's going to do, and what her advisors will 249 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:43,640 Speaker 5: have told her to do, is to try to trap Trump, 250 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 5: and they will do that by getting her to do 251 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 5: something like the shtick she did in the last debate 252 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 5: when she was running for VEEP and against against Donald 253 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,560 Speaker 5: Trump and Mike Pence. And you remember she kept saying 254 00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:02,640 Speaker 5: to Mike Pence, I'm speaking, excuse me what I am 255 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 5: And it was a very clear attempt to sort of 256 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 5: say I'm a woman. I'm also a woman of color. 257 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 5: And therefore if you in any way not just interrupt me, 258 00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:16,000 Speaker 5: but counter me, you're kind of countering a woman of 259 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 5: color and you know, steady on there, don't you realize 260 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 5: you're not allowed to do that. I don't think she'll 261 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 5: use that technique, but I bet they've come up with 262 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:28,280 Speaker 5: a new one that's equally irritating and equally designed to 263 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 5: effectively trap her opponent. 264 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 3: And it will be something that the media absolutely love, and. 265 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 2: They'll promote it as a massive win. 266 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:44,320 Speaker 3: And yet the rest of the viewing public, not all 267 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 3: of them, but many of them will find irritating. 268 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 2: Now, what does Trump have to do to get in 269 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 2: her head? 270 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 3: Should he try to throw her off? Pose questions the 271 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 3: debate moderators are not asking, or is it better off 272 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 3: just saying as little as possible and letting her talk? 273 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 5: Well that it's a very interesting one, this, I mean, 274 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 5: everybody sort of has ideas of how to do this, 275 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 5: and of course, you know, very few people have actually 276 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 5: been on the presidential stage or had a debate with 277 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 5: these kinds of stakes. I think that there's it's very 278 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 5: interesting watching Trump in recent weeks as he's he's you know, 279 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 5: clearly been advised, you know, stick to policy, and as 280 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:27,960 Speaker 5: he said at one of the rallies the other the 281 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 5: other week, you know, the Democrats have been very very 282 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 5: personal against him, and how could he resist getting personal? 283 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 5: In response that said, it's an extremely difficult columbrum for him. 284 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 5: Getting personal. If she gets personal, and I think she's 285 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:48,400 Speaker 5: bound to, getting personal is kind of inevitable. And if 286 00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 5: he was to, as it were, rise above it, he 287 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 5: might well annoy a lot of his base. Who will 288 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 5: he will say, you know, we want to see you 289 00:16:55,880 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 5: pummel her effectively. So it's a very very tricky situation 290 00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 5: he's in. This is why, of course the Democrats have 291 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:08,159 Speaker 5: put her forward. Is it's meant to sort of snooker Trump. Nevertheless, 292 00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 5: there are two very good lines of attack that he 293 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 5: could do. One is to actually ask her to get 294 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:19,200 Speaker 5: specific on any policy, literally, any policy reata. It could 295 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 5: be anything from our education to foreign policy, taxation policy, 296 00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:30,000 Speaker 5: abtually any key policy, and just get her to give 297 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:33,639 Speaker 5: any detail on it, not to say the importance of 298 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 5: education is something we must remember and that's why education matters, 299 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:42,120 Speaker 5: and let's all think about that for a moment. Don't 300 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:45,320 Speaker 5: let her do any of that. Actually ask her some detail. 301 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:47,920 Speaker 5: That's the first thing he could do. The second thing 302 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 5: he could do is ask her how she squares this 303 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:59,119 Speaker 5: circle of this campaign is about fixing America, and yet 304 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,480 Speaker 5: I'm proud of what Joe Biden and I have accomplished 305 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:05,919 Speaker 5: in the last four years. There is a disconnect between 306 00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 5: those two things. Can he tease out of her what 307 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:13,119 Speaker 5: her real thinking is? We'll see. 308 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,119 Speaker 3: That's a very good point, because not only has she 309 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 3: been part of the Biden Harris administration, We've had the 310 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:22,920 Speaker 3: Democrats in power twelve of the last sixteen years, so 311 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:27,679 Speaker 3: this continuous There's a better way, the change we desperately need. Well, 312 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 3: how long do you need to actually implement it? We 313 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:35,719 Speaker 3: are getting finally a few policy positions articulated on the 314 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 3: official Harris campaign website and Douglas she wants to provide 315 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:45,320 Speaker 3: a pathway to citizenship for migrants who have crossed into 316 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:49,359 Speaker 3: the border over the border illegally. This is in stark 317 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 3: contrast to Donald Trump, whose policy is to enact a 318 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 3: massive deportation initiative to get rid of illegal immigrants from 319 00:18:57,800 --> 00:18:59,639 Speaker 3: the country. How do you think this is going to 320 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,200 Speaker 3: play at You know, this. 321 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 5: Has played out so many times in America in recent decades. 322 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 5: When you have a completely porous border, there is always 323 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:14,440 Speaker 5: this temptation for people to say, why don't we put 324 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 5: a pathway to citizenship for people who are in America already, 325 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 5: and instead of having them work in the shadow economy, 326 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:24,600 Speaker 5: in the black market and so on, let's bring them in, 327 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 5: make them taxpayers, make them citizens, and so on. There's 328 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:31,520 Speaker 5: in one way, this is a perfectly reasonable argument. On 329 00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:35,920 Speaker 5: the other hand, it's absolutely lethal because what it does is, 330 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 5: after the millions of people who've already broken into America 331 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:42,879 Speaker 5: through the southern border illegally, it simply encourages more to come. 332 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,440 Speaker 5: Why because it says, you know, you've just got to 333 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:49,159 Speaker 5: get in, you'll get everything that you need, and you 334 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:53,119 Speaker 5: will eventually be actually a citizen. In other words, the 335 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:58,399 Speaker 5: crime of breaking into the country illegally will effectively not 336 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:00,960 Speaker 5: be judged to be a crime, won't be any punishment 337 00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:03,480 Speaker 5: for it. The problem about this is, and it's the 338 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,760 Speaker 5: same problem with America that Europe has been going through. 339 00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 5: Its the same problem Britain's going through. It's the same 340 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 5: problem that Australia has been challenged by in the past. 341 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:12,920 Speaker 5: As you know, although Australia has been one of the 342 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 5: relatively same countries on this, the problem with it is 343 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 5: not the people who have already come. It's the millions 344 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 5: upon millions of people who would like to come and 345 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:28,680 Speaker 5: who the minute that you make that pathway from being 346 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 5: an illegal, who breaks in being a citizen, and the 347 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 5: minute you make that pathway that easy, it's just millions 348 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 5: upon millions of people who will want to follow in 349 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:41,959 Speaker 5: the footsteps of those people. So it's always there, This idea, 350 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 5: the pathway to systemship is always there as a temptation 351 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 5: for politicians, but they leave for their successes a bigger 352 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 5: and bigger nightmare. 353 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 3: Absolutely, you're just creating more poor factors. You're putting more 354 00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:59,239 Speaker 3: sugar on the table, as they say. And I do 355 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:02,200 Speaker 3: wonder whether Democrats would be so keen on this path 356 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:06,359 Speaker 3: to citizenship if they weren't counting on these new citizens 357 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:11,159 Speaker 3: voting for them. Perhaps they're are miscalculating there, but I 358 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 3: think in the past they've been fairly safe in thinking 359 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:19,439 Speaker 3: these new migrants who've been effectively awarded for crossing the 360 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:22,919 Speaker 3: border illegally will support us with their vote. 361 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,200 Speaker 2: Now, illegal immigrants are causing all. 362 00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 3: Sorts of serious issues for people across many towns in 363 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,200 Speaker 3: the US. It's not just those border towns anymore. We've 364 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 3: had a armed Venezuelan gangs taking over apartment buildings in 365 00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 3: Colorado to thousands of immigrants from Haiti being placed in 366 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 3: a little town called Springfield, Ohio. This is a town 367 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 3: with a population of less than sixty thousand Douglas, and 368 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:51,199 Speaker 3: the mayor there says they've been overwhelmed by fourteen to 369 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 3: twenty thousand migrants that have been brought in by authorities. 370 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:56,680 Speaker 2: The locals have had enough. 371 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:00,679 Speaker 10: I really challenge you guys to get out here, do something. 372 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:05,400 Speaker 10: These Pasians are running into trash cans, they're running into buildings, 373 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:09,520 Speaker 10: they're running into if looking cars in the middle of 374 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 10: the street. 375 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:12,720 Speaker 2: Douglas. 376 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:16,200 Speaker 3: The locals there are not getting to the services they 377 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 3: need because they're being overwhelmed by these new. 378 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 2: Migrants that have arrived. And when you think about the. 379 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,720 Speaker 3: Numbers, a town of less than sixty thousand to suddenly 380 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:30,479 Speaker 3: have anywhere between fourteen and twenty thousand new people placed 381 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 3: in it, and you can understand why they're overwhelmed. 382 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 5: I mean, I've seen this so many times in so 383 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:40,240 Speaker 5: many other Western countries Rita. It's exactly the sort of 384 00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 5: thing that happened in Sweden since twenty fifteen. It's exactly 385 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,879 Speaker 5: the same thing that's happened in towns in Germany and elsewhere, 386 00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:50,480 Speaker 5: and it's always the same story, is that the locals 387 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 5: say we can't put up with this, and central or 388 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:59,359 Speaker 5: local government says, tough luck, you're going to have to. 389 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 5: And I think this is profoundly im moral on the 390 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 5: part of politicians. I think it's a wicked thing to do. 391 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:11,879 Speaker 5: The first duty of politicians is to look after the 392 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:15,120 Speaker 5: interests of the people who put them in power, the voters. 393 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:19,439 Speaker 5: It's not to make sure that everyone in Venezuela who 394 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 5: wants to flee and break into a condo flat gets 395 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 5: the right to do so. And I think it's an 396 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 5: unbelievable offering up a responsibility, abdication of responsibility by politicians, 397 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 5: And as I said earlier, they leave a much bigger 398 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:44,119 Speaker 5: mess for the people coming after them. 399 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:46,240 Speaker 2: Absolutely. Now let's move to the UK. 400 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:50,960 Speaker 3: The BBC's israel Her mass coverage is said to breach 401 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 3: the broadcaster's own editorial guidelines over fifteen hundred times. This 402 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 3: is according to a new report compiled by a team 403 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:01,240 Speaker 3: of lawyers and data scientists Douglas. 404 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 2: They analyze some nine million. 405 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:09,119 Speaker 3: Words of coverage across several languages and different platforms. The 406 00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 3: question has to be asked, why does the BBC have 407 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:18,000 Speaker 3: this deeply worrying pattern of bias, bias against Israel. 408 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 5: It always has done. I'm slightly surprised that they've been 409 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:24,960 Speaker 5: found to have only fifteen hundred breaches of their own 410 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:28,879 Speaker 5: guidelines in recent I had put the figure rather higher 411 00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 5: than that. There was a report some years ago into 412 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 5: the BBC's anti as well bias inside the BBC, and 413 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 5: the report was never released, and I suspect, as many 414 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 5: other people do, that it's because it came to the 415 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:44,400 Speaker 5: same conclusions that this report has come to. You can 416 00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:49,119 Speaker 5: absolutely smell it in broadcasting house. There's a straightforward editorial 417 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 5: lie on the Israel issue, which is that the BBC 418 00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:57,680 Speaker 5: believes that Israel always is in the wrong and can 419 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 5: do no right, and it's coverage is grossly unfair. It 420 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 5: has been for years, and I think this is something 421 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 5: that should be should be addressed. I mean, you see 422 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 5: it in headline after headline, day after day. The BBC 423 00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:18,719 Speaker 5: will report things from effectively the angle of Hamaz. It 424 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:25,120 Speaker 5: happened recently with the issue of the four hostages who 425 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:29,240 Speaker 5: were killed in captivity. The way in which the BBC 426 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:33,160 Speaker 5: reported this it was as if the Israelis have killed 427 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 5: the Israeli hostages. It was as if he is Raeli 428 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:40,520 Speaker 5: Prime ministered the Israeli hostages. The whole onus of the 429 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:44,960 Speaker 5: coverage was as if there was an Israeli mistake or 430 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:51,040 Speaker 5: error or Israelian transigence that had caused it. And the 431 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 5: coverage did not acknowledge the fact that in most civilized 432 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 5: media entities, as well as societies, it is deemed to 433 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:01,680 Speaker 5: be wrong to break into some somebody else's country, break 434 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 5: into their house, fill their citizens, and internap them, then 435 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:07,400 Speaker 5: hold them in tunnels for almost a year and then 436 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:10,720 Speaker 5: shoot them in the head. Most people would regard that 437 00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:13,560 Speaker 5: as being on the people who did it. Oh not 438 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 5: the BBC, because you can always find Jeremy Bowen or 439 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:22,680 Speaker 5: another of their correspondents always taking the side always of 440 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:26,359 Speaker 5: just anyone who's anti Israel. It's an endemic bias in 441 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 5: the BBC, completely sick. And of course they're welcome to 442 00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:33,400 Speaker 5: do that. If they want to just be a pro 443 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:36,800 Speaker 5: Hamas anti Israel channel, they can do that. But there's 444 00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:38,800 Speaker 5: a caveat with them, which is that they're not in 445 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 5: the free market, and on this exchange of free ideas 446 00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:45,040 Speaker 5: they're paid for by the license pairs, by the taxpayers 447 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:47,879 Speaker 5: in the UK. So that's why this matters. It's not 448 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 5: like The Guardian, the guy I think can do what 449 00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:53,879 Speaker 5: it wants. This is the national broadcaster, and so I 450 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 5: think that a better standard should be expected of them, 451 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 5: and indeed demanded. 452 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:00,800 Speaker 2: Now, before you. 453 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 3: Go, Princess Kate has just in recent hours released a 454 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 3: video announcing she has completed her chemo therapy treatment. 455 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 11: To finally completed my chemotherapy treatment. The last nine months 456 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:19,160 Speaker 11: have been incredibly tough for us as a family. Life. 457 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:22,080 Speaker 11: As you know, it can change in an instant and 458 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:24,200 Speaker 11: we've had to find a way to navigate the stormy 459 00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:25,960 Speaker 11: waters and road unknown. 460 00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:28,080 Speaker 2: Douglas. 461 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:31,160 Speaker 3: She also speaks about looking forward to being back at 462 00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:35,920 Speaker 3: work and undertaking public engagements. It's a beautifully shot video, 463 00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 3: i've got to say, has. 464 00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:40,240 Speaker 2: Astonished Royal watches. I love it. 465 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:44,639 Speaker 3: I think we should be have more communication like this. 466 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 3: There was so much secrecy around her treatment and she's 467 00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 3: now coming out and sharing it all with the world. 468 00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:55,199 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's the first time I've seen it. It's a 469 00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:57,960 Speaker 5: fake glossy but look it's a happy story at a 470 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:03,160 Speaker 5: time when happy stories, and you know, she's been remarkable 471 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:08,080 Speaker 5: figure in public life ever since she first entered public life. 472 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 5: Unlike some people we could think of, she's been extraordinarily 473 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:16,760 Speaker 5: devoted in her work and you know, I hope that 474 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 5: her return to public life. I think it will be seen, 475 00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:22,679 Speaker 5: it will be welcomed enormously warmly by the British public 476 00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 5: and others. She's never put a foot wrong since since she, 477 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 5: you know, became a public figure in one of the 478 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:33,199 Speaker 5: toughest jobs in the world in a way, because you know, 479 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:35,920 Speaker 5: if she's in one of those visions where if you've 480 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:39,400 Speaker 5: scowled once, you'd get a lifelong reputation for being a 481 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 5: grum And so it's wonderful that she'll be back. The 482 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 5: royal family has got rather too few working members at 483 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:50,480 Speaker 5: the moment, so having one of the absolute alist royals 484 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 5: back is good news. 485 00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 3: And she's showing such enormous grist because the couple you 486 00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 3: haven't mentioned, Harry Meghan. I've poured all sorts of vitriol 487 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:06,280 Speaker 3: her way and her husband's way. She knows she can't respond. 488 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 3: She just has to keep a dignified silence, which must 489 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:13,640 Speaker 3: be enormously difficult. But she's done it. She's done her duty. 490 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:16,680 Speaker 3: And we thank her for it.

We had to go out in a beautiful 659 00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:53,320 Speaker 13: January day and be like this sucks, right, climate change? 660 00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:54,960 Speaker 13: I'm in a T shirt. 661 00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:55,960 Speaker 2: This is awful. 662 00:38:57,600 --> 00:39:00,840 Speaker 3: Still to come, plenty more lefties losing it, content with 663 00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:06,880 Speaker 3: the brilliant Josh Hammer. 664 00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:12,319 Speaker 2: Welcome back. 665 00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:15,160 Speaker 3: The one and only debate between Donald Trump and Kamala 666 00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:18,280 Speaker 3: Harris is on tomorrow, and let's take a quick look 667 00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:23,000 Speaker 3: at the ABC moderators. David Muir and Lindsey Davis are 668 00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:27,399 Speaker 3: hardly impartial. Here is just a little taste of their 669 00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:31,759 Speaker 3: anti Trump bias. These are comments from less than a 670 00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:37,359 Speaker 3: month ago from Davis linking Trump to a white supremacist cause. 671 00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:40,080 Speaker 20: Former President Donald Trump is expected to go campaign and 672 00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:44,360 Speaker 20: Howard Michigan tomorrow. Many people are aware of that a 673 00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:48,719 Speaker 20: month ago in Howell KKK Peltester's marchmist roots with the 674 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:54,840 Speaker 20: white robes on and suggested that they support Donald Trump. 675 00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:57,640 Speaker 20: I'm curious if if you make anything about that connection 676 00:39:57,719 --> 00:39:59,920 Speaker 20: in his going in particular to howld tomorrow. 677 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:03,040 Speaker 3: Joining me now is Newsweek Senior editor at Large and 678 00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:07,239 Speaker 3: Article three Project Senior Council Josh Hamma. Josh, that was 679 00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:12,120 Speaker 3: a bizarre question from an ABC anchor. Well, Tomorrow's debate 680 00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:13,640 Speaker 3: BA level playing. 681 00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:18,200 Speaker 21: Field, Probably not, if I had to guess, I mean. 682 00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:20,840 Speaker 21: ABC News, of course, would be the same American media 683 00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:25,120 Speaker 21: outlet that hires George Stephanopolis to anchor its Sunday news show. 684 00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:28,640 Speaker 21: That people will probably recall that George Stefanopolis was one 685 00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:31,760 Speaker 21: of the pre eminent Clinton campaign staffers, along with Jimmy 686 00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:33,840 Speaker 21: Carvill back in nineteen ninety two. I mean, he is 687 00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:36,399 Speaker 21: about as partisan a Democrat as it gets in all 688 00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:39,560 Speaker 21: of the mainstream corporate media. This is not an objective 689 00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:42,040 Speaker 21: outlet at all. Actually read a if I think back, 690 00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:45,040 Speaker 21: it was on the precipice of the twenty twenty presidential election. 691 00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:48,640 Speaker 21: Wisconsin has become one of America's foremost swing states. It 692 00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:52,000 Speaker 21: was an ABC News poll just a handful of days 693 00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:54,719 Speaker 21: prior to the twenty twenty election that showed back then 694 00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:58,160 Speaker 21: that Joe Biden was allegedly up by seventeen points on 695 00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:00,640 Speaker 21: Donald Trump and Wisconsin the final mark and a victory 696 00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:03,600 Speaker 21: and ended up being less than one point. So, I mean, 697 00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:07,080 Speaker 21: there's definitely something in the water at ABC News. Fortunately 698 00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:10,040 Speaker 21: for Donald Trump, you know, if he plays his cards right, 699 00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:12,880 Speaker 21: it doesn't really matter. I think how the moderators approach this. 700 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:16,400 Speaker 21: So the moderator is Kamala Harris Rita. They're going to 701 00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:19,880 Speaker 21: do everything they can to steer the conversation to two topics. 702 00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:21,959 Speaker 21: In particular, they're gonna do everything they can to steer 703 00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:26,280 Speaker 21: the conversation to so called our democracy because they painted 704 00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:28,640 Speaker 21: Donald Trump out to be a historical threat to the 705 00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:31,319 Speaker 21: Constitution and all that we stand for. The near assassination 706 00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:32,759 Speaker 21: of him a month and a half ago has not 707 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:34,960 Speaker 21: slowed them down at all. They have that issue, and 708 00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:37,480 Speaker 21: then they have the abortion issue. If Donald Trump can 709 00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:40,879 Speaker 21: quickly respond to those two and then pivot to all 710 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:44,680 Speaker 21: the other issues, namely immigration, the economy, inflation, and crime, 711 00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:46,560 Speaker 21: those are really the four issues right now. Those are 712 00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:49,520 Speaker 21: the four issues that the American people tell pulsters they 713 00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:52,200 Speaker 21: care most about. And Donald Trump is more trusted on 714 00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:54,720 Speaker 21: each of those four issues. So if he can quickly pivot, 715 00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:57,520 Speaker 21: so for example, on the question of our democracy, which 716 00:41:57,560 --> 00:41:59,440 Speaker 21: I'm sure is going to compet some point, all he 717 00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:02,120 Speaker 21: has to do. He's looking to the camera and very 718 00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:04,960 Speaker 21: straightforward and clearly say there is one person on this 719 00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:08,440 Speaker 21: steege whose Department of Justice is trying to incarsrate the opposition, 720 00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:11,000 Speaker 21: and guess what, it's not me, and then immediately pivot 721 00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:13,359 Speaker 21: to the economy, immigration, and so forth. If he can 722 00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:15,040 Speaker 21: do that, he's going to be in great shape. 723 00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:15,560 Speaker 4: I think. 724 00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:18,200 Speaker 2: I think so. 725 00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:21,080 Speaker 3: And I think he also has to just resist talking, 726 00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:24,200 Speaker 3: because the more Kamala talks, the more trouble she gets 727 00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:26,520 Speaker 3: herself into. And I think that will be difficult for 728 00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:30,759 Speaker 3: Donald Trump, but if he can restrain himself, it would 729 00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:34,920 Speaker 3: be fantastic. The Mail Online is revealing that Kamala Harris 730 00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:39,320 Speaker 3: is prepping for this debate by practicing against an AID. 731 00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:40,680 Speaker 2: In an Orange wig. 732 00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:46,760 Speaker 3: No reports yet whether it's this guy my favorite Trump impersonator. 733 00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:51,080 Speaker 3: What do you think about this? Is this a sign 734 00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:55,560 Speaker 3: that she's taking it deadly seriously or a sign that 735 00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:58,000 Speaker 3: a campaign isn't really run by adults? 736 00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:03,080 Speaker 21: Well, Damala Harris is in serious trouble. I mean Nate Silver, 737 00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:06,400 Speaker 21: who runs five thirty eight and he's probably America's foremost 738 00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:11,600 Speaker 21: political odds horse race prognosticare essentially the best statistical analyst 739 00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:13,560 Speaker 21: we have here now. Now, he himself is a is 740 00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:17,120 Speaker 21: a liberal leaning guy. I mean he calls it roughly straight. 741 00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:19,360 Speaker 21: But no one doubts that Nate Silver is a liberal. 742 00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:19,920 Speaker 2: You know. 743 00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:23,560 Speaker 21: His model actually just a few hours ago actually changed 744 00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:26,080 Speaker 21: to Donald Trump having about a sixty five to sixty 745 00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:28,720 Speaker 21: six percent chance of winning the election. In fact, according 746 00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:31,759 Speaker 21: to Nate Silver's current model, Donald Trump is favored in 747 00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:35,920 Speaker 21: literally every single swing state right now, Nevada, Arizona, Georgia, 748 00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:38,600 Speaker 21: North Carolina, and all three of the big Rust Belt 749 00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:42,480 Speaker 21: states of Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania, especially Pennsylvania, which is 750 00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:45,480 Speaker 21: the largest electoral college prize of them all of all 751 00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:47,600 Speaker 21: the Swings states. So Donald Trump is actually in very 752 00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:49,759 Speaker 21: good shape right now. And you know, there were a 753 00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:52,440 Speaker 21: lot of people Rita who after they pulled the bloodless 754 00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:56,799 Speaker 21: cup of Joe Biden and inserted the cackling communists from California, 755 00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:59,680 Speaker 21: Kamala Harris in Joe Biden's stead, there are a lot 756 00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:02,000 Speaker 21: of people people who started freaking out. Yes, the polls 757 00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:03,640 Speaker 21: tied in there. You know, I have to say, I 758 00:44:03,640 --> 00:44:05,399 Speaker 21: don't want to pat myself in the back too hard, 759 00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:07,480 Speaker 21: but I was not one of them, because, as you 760 00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:10,560 Speaker 21: just said, the more people that actually listen to and 761 00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:14,080 Speaker 21: hear Kamala Harris talk, it's like an immediate repulsion. I mean, 762 00:44:14,120 --> 00:44:17,000 Speaker 21: it's like oil on water. The woman is just not 763 00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:21,080 Speaker 21: likable and she's I've obviously been profoundly terrible as an 764 00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:23,680 Speaker 21: actual leader. You know, she's been vice president of one 765 00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:26,960 Speaker 21: of the worst administrations in the entire history of the Republic. 766 00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:29,840 Speaker 21: Her presidential campaign twenty twenty bout out well before the 767 00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:31,759 Speaker 21: first votes were've been cast in Iowa. I could go 768 00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:34,360 Speaker 21: on here, but she's in big trouble, and what that 769 00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:37,640 Speaker 21: means in concrete, tangible terms is that she has a 770 00:44:37,800 --> 00:44:40,319 Speaker 21: lot on the line in this debate. So I'm not 771 00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:42,760 Speaker 21: surprised that that she's pulling out all these gimmicks, these stunts, 772 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:45,440 Speaker 21: the orange haired wig or whatever they're because the stakes 773 00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:47,480 Speaker 21: are really really high for her, I would argue even 774 00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:49,000 Speaker 21: higher than for Donald Trump himself. 775 00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:55,320 Speaker 3: I agree with you there. I think the polls. Trump 776 00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:58,919 Speaker 3: always performs that poorly in polls compared. 777 00:44:58,600 --> 00:44:59,880 Speaker 2: To where is support really. 778 00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:03,279 Speaker 3: If if they're saying he's leading by three, he can 779 00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:05,839 Speaker 3: be sure he's probably leading by eight or nine. Now, 780 00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:09,480 Speaker 3: that's always been the experience with his numbers, including in 781 00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:13,680 Speaker 3: twenty twenty. Now there's reports that Kamala Harris is looking 782 00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:17,520 Speaker 3: to name hard left Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison as 783 00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:22,680 Speaker 3: the US's top copper. Campaign team has reportedly told Arab 784 00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:26,920 Speaker 3: American leaders in Detroit that she could name Ellison, the 785 00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:30,840 Speaker 3: special prosecutor and the George Floyd case, as attorney general 786 00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:36,000 Speaker 3: as part of her administration. Trump officials told Fox News 787 00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:38,760 Speaker 3: Keith Ellison would be a natural fit in a Kamala 788 00:45:38,840 --> 00:45:39,759 Speaker 3: Harris administration. 789 00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:41,160 Speaker 2: Both are radical. 790 00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:45,160 Speaker 3: Liberals who support ending cash bail and releasing violent criminals 791 00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:48,640 Speaker 3: into American neighborhoods. Do we take these reports seriously? 792 00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:49,240 Speaker 8: Josh? 793 00:45:49,239 --> 00:45:53,000 Speaker 3: And she's already selected Tim Walls as her running mate. 794 00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:56,520 Speaker 3: How much more radically left can her administration be. 795 00:45:58,440 --> 00:45:58,640 Speaker 9: Read? 796 00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:00,920 Speaker 21: I think you might be surprised, and God forbid, I 797 00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:03,520 Speaker 21: think that I am my fellow Americans might be surprised. 798 00:46:03,520 --> 00:46:06,600 Speaker 21: Comes January twenty twenty five, if God forbid this ticket 799 00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:10,200 Speaker 21: actually prevails here. You know, Keith Ellison is not just 800 00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:14,360 Speaker 21: a radical when it comes to so called criminal justice reform, 801 00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:16,640 Speaker 21: when it comes to ending cash bail, when it comes 802 00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:18,760 Speaker 21: to jailbreak, when it comes to all these other post 803 00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:22,759 Speaker 21: George Floyd, post racial reckoning left wing agendas. You know, 804 00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:25,000 Speaker 21: the man is also fundamentally an Islamist. I mean he 805 00:46:25,160 --> 00:46:27,960 Speaker 21: is as cozy and close with care of the Council 806 00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:31,040 Speaker 21: and American Islamic relations as it gets care by the way, 807 00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:34,520 Speaker 21: it is recognized by by no less Muslim country as 808 00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:38,280 Speaker 21: the United Arab Emirates as a terrorist organization in Saudi Arabia, 809 00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:41,520 Speaker 21: if I'm not mistaken, has taken similar steps as well. Unfortunately, 810 00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:45,560 Speaker 21: much of the Democratic Party's elite class, their brass has 811 00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:47,919 Speaker 21: not gotten the memo. Keith Ellison is about as pro 812 00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:50,400 Speaker 21: care as it gets there. He's there in Minnesota, so 813 00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:53,520 Speaker 21: is Tim Wallas. That's illano Omar's backyard there. So this 814 00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:57,120 Speaker 21: is something I think of possibly a deliberate, a deliberate 815 00:46:57,280 --> 00:46:59,640 Speaker 21: leak that the Harris Walls campaign has probably done to 816 00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:02,800 Speaker 21: try to gin up enthusiasm among their far left, rathically 817 00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:06,200 Speaker 21: progressive pro Hamas base. They probably thought that the Democratic 818 00:47:06,280 --> 00:47:09,080 Speaker 21: National Convention was actually too even handed when it comes 819 00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:12,120 Speaker 21: to the Israeli Palestinian issue, if I had to guess. So, therefore, 820 00:47:12,120 --> 00:47:14,200 Speaker 21: they're trying to kind of throw out some breadcrumbs to 821 00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:16,480 Speaker 21: the radical base to try to get them excited for November. 822 00:47:16,480 --> 00:47:18,719 Speaker 21: But no one should make any mistake about this. Keith 823 00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:22,400 Speaker 21: Ellison would be an abominable, an abominable Attorney General of 824 00:47:22,400 --> 00:47:24,399 Speaker 21: the United States. He has been a horrific attorney general 825 00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:26,640 Speaker 21: in Minnesota. By the way, just real quick. One of 826 00:47:26,680 --> 00:47:28,719 Speaker 21: the other names that I've heard floated in case it's 827 00:47:28,760 --> 00:47:31,840 Speaker 21: not Keith Ellison for Kamala Harris's attorney general, God forbid 828 00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:34,560 Speaker 21: is woe by the name of Sally Yates. Sally Yates 829 00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:37,200 Speaker 21: made a lot of headlines in the first few days 830 00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:40,000 Speaker 21: of the Trump administray excuse me, yeah, the Trump ministration 831 00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:43,480 Speaker 21: back in January twenty seventeen, when she immediately instructed her 832 00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:47,600 Speaker 21: subordinates in the Trump DOJ to not enforce Trump's big 833 00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:50,719 Speaker 21: Day one immigration order, which the media disingenuously called the 834 00:47:50,760 --> 00:47:53,640 Speaker 21: so called Muslim Band. So that is another leading contender 835 00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:55,319 Speaker 21: for attorney general. It gives you an idea of what 836 00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:56,040 Speaker 21: they're thinking about. 837 00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:01,880 Speaker 3: It's shocking because we are trying to tell the broader 838 00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:05,440 Speaker 3: American public, not just those factions that you spoke of, 839 00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:09,319 Speaker 3: that she is a centrist, she's a moderate, she's a 840 00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:12,719 Speaker 3: safe pair of hands that you can trust to not 841 00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:16,480 Speaker 3: bankrupt the country. And yet when you hear about these 842 00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:20,160 Speaker 3: people she wants to include in her inner sanctum, they 843 00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:25,279 Speaker 3: are amongst the most radically left destructive forces in American politics. 844 00:48:25,719 --> 00:48:29,960 Speaker 3: But again, she did have the most liberal voting record 845 00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:34,680 Speaker 3: of any senator in twenty nineteen. That's her own track record, 846 00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:38,359 Speaker 3: so we know where she stands ideologically. Josh Hamma, thank 847 00:48:38,400 --> 00:48:39,760 Speaker 3: you so much for your time this evening. 848 00:48:40,719 --> 00:48:43,440 Speaker 2: Thank you so much as others, and that's it from me. 849 00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:45,279 Speaker 2: Up next is Newsnight
