Speaker 1: From the skying in Center. This is Paul Murray, live,
Speaker 1: fresh off the plane, straight into the man cave.
Speaker 2: So good to be back here in the greatest country
Speaker 2: in the world after having a bit of fun in
Speaker 2: the United States. Thank you so much to Danika, to Georgio,
Speaker 2: and to Steve Pryce Sporer.
Speaker 1: For filling in.
Speaker 2: We're back to normal from tonight, including a great conversation
Speaker 2: with Meegan Kelly just moments away.
Speaker 1: All right, a couple of things. Time for rud to
Speaker 1: pack his bags. I'll tell you why, in the exact
Speaker 1: moment when I made that decision. I'll get to it
Speaker 1: in a second.
Speaker 2: Surprise, surprise, elbow is still sinking in the polls no
Speaker 2: matter what happens around the world, and it's getting worse.
Speaker 2: And I'll tell you which of the remaining state labor
Speaker 2: governments looks like it's about to get the biscuit more
Speaker 2: in a.
Speaker 1: Moment or two time.
Speaker 2: But first and most importantly, thank you to so many
Speaker 2: people who were so kind about everything that we did
Speaker 2: over in the States. At a ball all the time.
Speaker 2: You know how much I love the story. You know
Speaker 2: how much I love the country. Here's some of the
Speaker 2: behind the scenes stuff for those of you who like
Speaker 2: to see what happens when we were setting up on
Speaker 2: a rooftop in Dallas, all the way through to the
Speaker 2: fun that we had in Cowtown, and then of course
Speaker 2: once we made our way towards.
Speaker 1: Washington, DC.
Speaker 2: Was the experience of a career and just a real
Speaker 2: life highlight. Thanks to everyone involved, both here and behind
Speaker 2: the scenes, but also thank you for watching in the
Speaker 2: numbers that you did.
Speaker 1: I still am bold over.
Speaker 2: That one of the editorials that we did from there's
Speaker 2: got almost six million people on YouTube. Unbelievable stuff. But
Speaker 2: a couple of things I wanted to mention about all
Speaker 2: of this, which is that there has of course been
Speaker 2: a little bit more news since Donald Trump won about
Speaker 2: a week ago, and it is all now to who
Speaker 2: he's going to surround himself with. Now a bloke who
Speaker 2: did serve in the military, has got multiple Bronze Stars
Speaker 2: for courage, has.
Speaker 1: Been nominated as his defense secretary.
Speaker 2: But he's also and more famously known as a host
Speaker 2: on Fox News, which of course has got left wing
Speaker 2: media going core razy. Little Marco Rubio will be the
Speaker 2: chief diplomat that'll be announced the next couple of days,
Speaker 2: and the big one today is that Elon Muskin Ramaswami
Speaker 2: are going to get together and they are going to
Speaker 2: kind of live out the right wing dream, which is
Speaker 2: to truly take the prunes to a federal budget.
Speaker 1: Now, remember, the US is.
Speaker 2: More than thirty trillion dollars in debt. Seven trillion dollars
Speaker 2: is how much they spend each and every year, and
Speaker 2: Republicans believe that there is a huge amount of fat
Speaker 2: to cut. Now, the reality is that that is probably
Speaker 2: very true. But when you have two people who haven't
Speaker 2: worked in government before, who've been very aggressive in the
Speaker 2: way that they have dealt with business and yes, turn
Speaker 2: businesses around, a big way they have done is to
Speaker 2: sack an awful lot of people. So, on the one hand,
Speaker 2: Trump is absolutely going to want to help dismantle much
Speaker 2: of the deep state, get rid of some of the
Speaker 2: dead wood that have always thought that they can outlive
Speaker 2: a president. So it doesn't matter whether you try or not.
Speaker 2: But of course, let's say a million people got the biscuit. Well,
Speaker 2: that's a million people who go onto the unemployment cues,
Speaker 2: and then Donald Trump wouldn't want that either because that
Speaker 2: will end up having its issues when it comes to
Speaker 2: how his presidency will be judged.
Speaker 1: But I mentioned all of this not.
Speaker 2: To continue the glow of the past week, but to
Speaker 2: remind you that while Donald Trump won the election, he's
Speaker 2: still not the president yet. In fact, we have to
Speaker 2: wait until January twenty for that to happen. So let's
Speaker 2: check in on the corpse that's currently occupying the office. No,
Speaker 2: not the one who was falling up the stairs within
Speaker 2: the first fifty days of becoming president by the way
Speaker 2: back in twenty twenty one.
Speaker 1: No, this here he was today. Clear question, weird answer,
Speaker 1: roll the tape.
Speaker 3: President Biden, do you think that you can cut a
Speaker 3: hostage deal by the end of your term?
Speaker 4: Thank you? The headway camera behind.
Speaker 5: You, right, thank you all.
Speaker 2: Wow, they get an upgrade on January twenty. But there's
Speaker 2: a lot of time between now and January twenty. And
Speaker 2: that's the guy who's in charge, still in the United States.
Speaker 2: As for the person who works side by side with
Speaker 2: him as the co pilot and the plane that was
Speaker 2: heading in the wrong direction, seventy five percent of Americans
Speaker 2: saying that's the case. What about the details we're learning
Speaker 2: about just how much money first of this campaign had
Speaker 2: and how they spent it.
Speaker 1: Peddled it up against the wall.
Speaker 6: There.
Speaker 2: I say they raised more than a billion, they spent
Speaker 2: a billion and even then they ended up twenty million
Speaker 2: dollars in debt. Talk to Megan Kelly in a second.
Speaker 2: Here's some of the stuff they spent their money on.
Speaker 3: She reportedly paid five million dollars to Meghan V. Stallion
Speaker 3: to perform at one of her rallies. Five million dollars.
Speaker 3: And the reason she did that is because Kamala Harris
Speaker 3: could get no crowds.
Speaker 2: Meghan Kelly on the show tonight, brom A Bishop and
Speaker 2: Stephen Connery.
Speaker 1: It is all heavy hitters, It is all a listers.
Speaker 2: It is all as you have come to expect from
Speaker 2: this time of night, each and every night here on
Speaker 2: Sky News. Now, one question I've received plenty before the election,
Speaker 2: plenty after the election, is well, could a Trump style
Speaker 2: thing happen here?
Speaker 1: Not? Really? Let me explain why so. Yes.
Speaker 2: The next battle that we turn our attention to is
Speaker 2: the battle between the Prime Minister and the alternativeme Minister.
Speaker 2: The polls right now very good for the LP, the
Speaker 2: Liberal National Party, great for Dutton in particular when it
Speaker 2: comes to personal issues.
Speaker 1: We'll get to those in a moment or two time.
Speaker 1: But people who.
Speaker 2: Say that, well, what about all of the workers that
Speaker 2: changed and the demographics that changed. Surely if that happens here,
Speaker 2: then a similar result will take place. Yeah kind of
Speaker 2: let me explain and I will not get too boring here,
Speaker 2: but I'll try and just explain in big overview chunks
Speaker 2: for you. Fox News did a great thing with the
Speaker 2: Associated Press called voter Analytics. This is when they spoke
Speaker 2: to more than one hundred and fifteen thousand people around
Speaker 2: the country. This is like the biggest possible poll short
Speaker 2: of an election, and it shows that clearly under twenty
Speaker 2: five thousand and over one hundred thousand dollars that's what
Speaker 2: Harris won. Everything in between that is what Trump won. Now,
Speaker 2: how does that play out in Australia? So, as you
Speaker 2: can see in those brackets, it goes twelve percent who
Speaker 2: earn under twenty five thousand, then twenty percent who earn
Speaker 2: between twenty five and fifty and another twenty between fifty
Speaker 2: and seventy five thousand, and almost another two twenty percent
Speaker 2: between seventy five thousand and ninety nine thousand. So you
Speaker 2: can basically say what the best part of fifty seven
Speaker 2: sixty percent of people sit in that middle band. Well,
Speaker 2: in Australia fourteen percent of workers. Now again, workers don't
Speaker 2: automatically equal voters. Why because we can work under the
Speaker 2: age of eighteen. But this is the best numbers I
Speaker 2: can get, and they're all sort of in the roundabout space.
Speaker 2: That's fourteen percent, that's higher than the American number. But
Speaker 2: then when you have a look at twenty three plus
Speaker 2: twenty plus eighteen, we're basically in the same zone of
Speaker 2: the high fifties to almost sixty percent of people between
Speaker 2: twenty five and one hundred thousand dollars. So, yes, if
Speaker 2: that middle band of people, if middle Australia decided to
Speaker 2: go from one side to the other, you would win
Speaker 2: an election, all right. Also, a couple of people a saying, well,
Speaker 2: what about education. Now, those who have a college degree
Speaker 2: or went to university, it's forty four percent of the
Speaker 2: population and they voted majority for Harris. Majority of the
Speaker 2: population though fifty six percent have no college degree. So
Speaker 2: how does that compare to say Australia, We're basically it's
Speaker 2: the same in terms of how much people earn. Well,
Speaker 2: what about people who've actually gone to university. Well, actually
Speaker 2: it's a lower number than the United States. It's forty
Speaker 2: four percent in the United States that have gone to
Speaker 2: university or have a degree. In this country, it's thirty
Speaker 2: six percent of workers. That said, why does this not
Speaker 2: automatically say great, people who haven't been to UNI earning
Speaker 2: between twenty five and one hundred thousand dollars, Paul, that's
Speaker 2: the sweet spot. That's how Dutton wins the next election. Well,
Speaker 2: of course, the difference is that we don't vote across
Speaker 2: an entire state. Instead, we vote in our suburbs in
Speaker 2: electorates that generally speaking take up one or two major
Speaker 2: council areas. And here's a list of a bunch of
Speaker 2: council areas in Australia that have higher rates of going
Speaker 2: to university than say, in places like the United States. Now,
Speaker 2: if you know these locations, you know that some of
Speaker 2: them are either teal seats or currently existing liberal seats.
Speaker 2: Some of the other examples about high education also sits
Speaker 2: within And obviously I don't suggest that just because you
Speaker 2: went to university it's a better education, but you understand
Speaker 2: what I mean the bit of paper, A lot of
Speaker 2: these things also sit within Teal seats as well, So
Speaker 2: that's why it's not quite as easy to if you
Speaker 2: build the coalition that Trump built, if you're Peter Dutton,
Speaker 2: then you would be able to win the next federal election.
Speaker 2: But without doubt, the biggest issue as to why any
Speaker 2: Australian politician can't replicate what an American politician does is, firstly,
Speaker 2: it's not winner take all.
Speaker 1: If you win the majority of people in.
Speaker 2: The state, you take all of the seats or the
Speaker 2: delegates to the electoral college. And of course in their
Speaker 2: system there's no preferences, so it's first past the post.
Speaker 2: So you end up with somebody winning forty five percent
Speaker 2: of the vote defeating somebody who won forty two percent
Speaker 2: of the vote, and a whole collection of other people,
Speaker 2: well they decided to vote for minor parties. In Australia,
Speaker 2: we've got people like One Nation from the center right,
Speaker 2: who of course anywhere on poles between eight and ten percent.
Speaker 2: Their preferences do determine elections. If the majority of One
Speaker 2: Nation supporters back the LNP, the Liberal and National Party
Speaker 2: win an election twenty nineteen. If they split it around,
Speaker 2: guess what, Just like in twenty twenty two, the Liberal
Speaker 2: and National Party loses. As for the Teals, they of
Speaker 2: course too own, will not own, but have multiple seats,
Speaker 2: and of course you need seventy six seats to win
Speaker 2: the Liberal Party to actually get there. And yes they
Speaker 2: might be able to move these coalitions that Trump was
Speaker 2: able to do. They've got to blast the Teals away
Speaker 2: fingers crossed.
Speaker 1: It happens. And of course there's the idiot Greens.
Speaker 2: He sit anywhere between ten and fifteen percent of the vote,
Speaker 2: no matter how hard they try to currently underperform. And
Speaker 2: of all of the people that are currently trying to
Speaker 2: play American politics, is it Dutton?
Speaker 1: No? Is it Albo?
Speaker 7: No?
Speaker 1: Is it Pauline Hansen?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: Is it a Teal? No, it's a Green.
Speaker 2: Because the Greens are out there to make abortion an
Speaker 2: issue again.
Speaker 1: It ain't an issue anywhere. Look what happened in the
Speaker 1: Queensland election. Benow the Greens.
Speaker 2: They're the ones, dare I say playing the reverse Trumpian politics.
Speaker 2: But that's why you can't have generally speaking, what happens
Speaker 2: in the United States happening here as much as we
Speaker 2: would like it too, sometimes as much as we would
Speaker 2: like it too. Now, unsurprising the upgrade albow is in
Speaker 2: a world of trouble every single day. No matter how
Speaker 2: he flies or how far at the front or on
Speaker 2: his own plane, he is heading in the wrong direction.
Speaker 2: Since I've been a way, whole collection of polls have
Speaker 2: come out. Firstly, News poll voters are backing the Coalition.
Speaker 2: I have a labor to deal with cost of living,
Speaker 2: cost of living number one issue. Sometimes these things can
Speaker 2: get overly complicated, or we over complicate them, why because
Speaker 2: we've got to talk about something every single night, every
Speaker 2: single week, every single month. But the reality is that
Speaker 2: the next election will be about cost of living. And
Speaker 2: if the majority of people think that the Coalition can
Speaker 2: do a better job than Labor, which I think they
Speaker 2: can because in part of what Labour promised and then
Speaker 2: of course under livered, well, then the Coalition is on
Speaker 2: a very good path towards victory, unless, of course, the
Speaker 2: teals and all the rest of it takes place. Meantime,
Speaker 2: further dig into news Pold shows Peter Dutton's personal numbers
Speaker 2: getting stronger and stronger and stronger as the airbus albow,
Speaker 2: the upgrade elbow thing is just really punching him about
Speaker 2: and it's all of his own doing. Meantime, what about
Speaker 2: the approval ratings This one from the Resolve poll, and
Speaker 2: it shows here that the approval ratings Anthony Aberzi has
Speaker 2: only thirty seven percent of people who think he's doing
Speaker 2: a good or a very good job. Peter Dutton has
Speaker 2: forty five percent of people. Conversely, those who think that
Speaker 2: you're doing a poor or a very poor job, fifty
Speaker 2: one percent of the country now thinks that about Anthony Albanesi.
Speaker 1: So all of the oh, Dutton's unelectable.
Speaker 2: Duton's unelectable if you're paying attention, just like it's not
Speaker 2: a giant surprise that the most unpopular vice president in
Speaker 2: modern history was trying to pretend to be different than
Speaker 2: the government that she has already been a part of.
Speaker 2: Whilst seventy five percent of Americans so they're.
Speaker 1: Headed in a wrong direction right now.
Speaker 2: In Australia, it is more than fifty percent of people who'
Speaker 2: say we're on the wrong track. It's more than fifty
Speaker 2: percent who say the Prime Minister is doing a poor
Speaker 2: or a very poor job. It's now close to, if
Speaker 2: not over, fifty percent who believe that the coalition is
Speaker 2: going to do a better job on that number one issue,
Speaker 2: so surprise, surprise, despite all the chatting that happens between
Speaker 2: now and the election, if it's close, if it's competitive,
Speaker 2: that's the reason. And just like the Democrats in the
Speaker 2: United States, when a government gets itself in a world
Speaker 2: of trouble, priorities are what matter. What about the story
Speaker 2: today that while they took fifteen hundred dollars off ten
Speaker 2: million workers at the height of the cost of living
Speaker 2: crisis just twelve months ago, this federal government has tried
Speaker 2: to lock in the number of people who are working
Speaker 2: for it.
Speaker 1: Thus we'll vote for it.
Speaker 2: When the yuga booger campaign about the Liberal Party is
Speaker 2: going to cut public servants total cost five b four
Speaker 2: billion dollars, this mob have added five billion dollars to
Speaker 2: the total wagers bill of the public service. And of
Speaker 2: course when it comes to immigration, we know that this
Speaker 2: government will it. It doesn't even kind of slow walk
Speaker 2: the walk they told us at the end of last year.
Speaker 2: I know we're definitely doing to do cutting immigration. Guess
Speaker 2: what record highs, record highs. And again these are not
Speaker 2: far right wing corners of the internet you need to
Speaker 2: special access code to get into This is all right
Speaker 2: in the middle. Everyone can see this stuff. And again
Speaker 2: it's not because of any issues with people who.
Speaker 1: Come home from somewhere else. Again, it's about priorities.
Speaker 2: So at a time when you are financially in the whole,
Speaker 2: there's spending five billion dollars extra in public servants at
Speaker 2: a time when you're in the hole, they're adding to
Speaker 2: the cure of people that are trying to get our
Speaker 2: services or buy a house.
Speaker 1: Compete with your kids.
Speaker 2: But what's the priority of the government our social media
Speaker 2: And it's not just about kids as staying off at
Speaker 2: guess what the misinformation bill, the censoring the Internet bill.
Speaker 2: It is beginning to die a slow death now for
Speaker 2: the path of this thing to make it through, you
Speaker 2: need all of the Labor Party centertors to vote for it.
Speaker 2: Of course, if you cross the floor, we.
Speaker 1: Know what they do to you. You need all of
Speaker 1: the Greens.
Speaker 2: They will vote for it because it's a back to
Speaker 2: a wave of trying to shut down conversations like the
Speaker 2: one we're having right now. Remember that's their true dream,
Speaker 2: is to try to blow us off the air and
Speaker 2: try and take us down from the Internet. That's the
Speaker 2: real game here. For Get all this misinformation garbage. It's
Speaker 2: about anyone who is providing resistance to what they are
Speaker 2: trying to do, they will deem as being missile disinformation.
Speaker 2: So then of course you need a crossbach. Jackie Lamby
Speaker 2: haven't heard anything from her, but remember she was out
Speaker 2: and about and screaming about Elon musk Well, the Senator
Speaker 2: that she brought with her Tammy Tyrrel. She has now
Speaker 2: said she is voting no, and amazingly today door Matt
Speaker 2: Dave Pocock also came out today and said no, censoring
Speaker 2: the Internet will not happen under his vote. Ironically, he
Speaker 2: used social media to make the point. I've listened to
Speaker 2: the experts and to people in the Act and I'll
Speaker 2: be opposing the Combating Misinformation Dissormation.
Speaker 6: Bill unless major changes are made to the legislation other stands.
Speaker 6: I don't believe it takes the right approach to dealing
Speaker 6: with misinformation.
Speaker 2: This was a bad idea when it was first suggested.
Speaker 2: It was a dog of a piece of legislation last year.
Speaker 2: They have done nothing, nothing but put a new collar
Speaker 2: on it this time. And good to see even the
Speaker 2: people that we would disagree with on ninety nine and
Speaker 2: a half percent of things can actually see what this
Speaker 2: really is about. This is not about anything other than
Speaker 2: shutting down debate. The government doesn't like the government doesn't
Speaker 2: get to decide what the truth is. All right, facts, figures, data,
Speaker 2: and if you can back it up, then welcome to
Speaker 2: the conversation. You make stuff up, okay, cool, but it
Speaker 2: shouldn't be against the law. You should simply be ignored
Speaker 2: by people.
Speaker 1: Who believe you're not to be telling the truth.
Speaker 2: It's why over the past few years I've really tried
Speaker 2: to put a lot of effort into showing you the working.
Speaker 2: Remember like the old high school teacher used to tell you,
Speaker 2: show working, show working. That's why I show you the data,
Speaker 2: to show you the information. And yes, be dollop of
Speaker 2: opinion on top of it, because otherwise the government deciding
Speaker 2: what's the police?
Speaker 1: No, thank you.
Speaker 2: Now, Victoria's Premier justinto Allen world of trouble. There is
Speaker 2: a crazy polog get to in a moment or two time.
Speaker 2: Now American Poles. I will never mention them again. Right
Speaker 2: we all know why. Australian Poles pretty close okay, pretty
Speaker 2: close and.
Speaker 1: Within the zone.
Speaker 2: All right, So if they tell us it's tight, you
Speaker 2: actually believe it's tight as opposed to the garbage it
Speaker 2: was being served up in America anyway, just into Allen.
Speaker 2: So she has decided that she is going to continue
Speaker 2: to bankrupt the state along with Tim Pallas. Even lefty
Speaker 2: websites run by academics called The Conversation says, eye watering
Speaker 2: spending is the type of thing that's happening inside the
Speaker 2: Victorian budget, as well as, of course the outrageous and
Speaker 2: offensive debt that is being built up. Well, there's one
Speaker 2: group of people that the Victorian government draws a line
Speaker 2: under about whether or not they are going to pay
Speaker 2: them and pay them properly.
Speaker 1: And that is the police force. Now this is again maddening.
Speaker 2: Well, you can't automatically click and drag everything that's happening
Speaker 2: in other people's politics in other.
Speaker 1: Parts of the world.
Speaker 2: Safety issues in London, they change the government. Safety issues
Speaker 2: in the United States, they change the president. Safety issues
Speaker 2: in and around Victoria, they will do the same. And
Speaker 2: good on the police there who yes, went too far
Speaker 2: in COVID it's a pro cops show. So the many
Speaker 2: and women of the police force, the one whose lives
Speaker 2: are in danger each and every day, we admire them
Speaker 2: and we believe that they should be paid every cent
Speaker 2: that they ask for, every cent that they ask for.
Speaker 2: So there's some industrial action that's taking place right now.
Speaker 2: And among that industrial action is police officers are writing
Speaker 2: little slogans very specific against the Labor Party and they
Speaker 2: are doing so on the police vehicles. And what about
Speaker 2: this one that was spotted by an eagle I who
Speaker 2: sent it to news dot com dot IU which says
Speaker 2: learn self defense because we might be a little while.
Speaker 1: Before we actually get to you.
Speaker 2: That is unbelievable now as opposed to dealing with this situation,
Speaker 2: finding the money, paying them properly, honoring the police, thanking
Speaker 2: them from their service, helping them when they help others. Nope,
Speaker 2: Allen Government's not moving, not moving whatsoever, because this is
Speaker 2: the one union that they are willing to ignore, that
Speaker 2: being the police officers union, because sometimes a little bit
Speaker 2: too right wing, sometimes it points out too many problems
Speaker 2: when it comes to law and order.
Speaker 1: No, Instead, the.
Speaker 2: Priority of the Victorian government today was a new poly
Speaker 2: police officer, a new body that will be set up
Speaker 2: to police the behavior of Victorian politicians. People who are
Speaker 2: honored will be paid a very small fortune. But does
Speaker 2: this surprise you? But Interestingly, the government is in a
Speaker 2: world of trouble. According to the latest polling, which is
Speaker 2: coming out via this time, that far right wing newspaper,
Speaker 2: the Age The Resolve Political Monitor has shown that as
Speaker 2: the preferred premiere, John Pascudo, I know it's not that,
Speaker 2: but I say it anyway, is currently the preferred premier.
Speaker 2: Now big asceristics of this. Yes, he's thirty percent, she's
Speaker 2: twenty nine percent. See the gray that's undecided. Okay, so
Speaker 2: the most popular person in the race right now is
Speaker 2: undecided as sitting at about forty one percent. Pardon me,
Speaker 2: forty one percent. I got about eighteen times on the
Speaker 2: plane today. I apologize, but Row fifty seven was amazing.
Speaker 2: Now no upgrades from Olbow for US now. Meantime, in
Speaker 2: terms of the actual primary vote, the LNP is now
Speaker 2: at thirty eight. Remember, if they have a forty in
Speaker 2: front of it, they are going to win an election,
Speaker 2: even the crazy one that's taking place in Victoria right now.
Speaker 2: So watch this space, watch this place, because that may
Speaker 2: well be a change coming to Victoria, and not a
Speaker 2: moment too soon. Although, like anyone else, has been paying
Speaker 2: close attention to the liberal leader there, I am as
Speaker 2: surprised as you are.
Speaker 1: Yes, don't know is number one?
Speaker 2: Then the Liberal leader, then the labor leader by a point,
Speaker 2: but still a couple of things worth mentioning. Now, anywhere
Speaker 2: you go in the world these days, you sort of
Speaker 2: expect that you'll be able to plug your phone into
Speaker 2: a car, And what used to be the car radio
Speaker 2: is now, of course, an electronic screen that will on
Speaker 2: many occasions take you to your phone of choices operating
Speaker 2: s to say, the Apple Car Play. I'm an Apple head,
Speaker 2: as you may will have worked out from now, so
Speaker 2: I like that all of the apps and radio and
Speaker 2: all the rest of it, I can pull it up
Speaker 2: on a screen there drive around. Well, guess what, GM
Speaker 2: and the United States are set no more. They will
Speaker 2: no longer be putting in either the Google system for
Speaker 2: androids or Apple Play White because they want to have
Speaker 2: control over what you listen to in the car. And
Speaker 2: how so an interesting move from the old fashioned radio,
Speaker 2: which of course is great for that existing industry, to
Speaker 2: the plug in version, which means you're able to use
Speaker 2: your phone. To now the third version, which is going
Speaker 2: to be the Yes, I think technically you're going to
Speaker 2: be able to use your phone, but it's not going
Speaker 2: to be the automatic loading that it currently is because
Speaker 2: they want you to use their system because everyone must
Speaker 2: reinvent the wheel. And speaking of what about a device
Speaker 2: that has four of them? Shopping trolleys, we all know
Speaker 2: what it's like to have a rogue one when for
Speaker 2: some reason, it doesn't matter how hard you pull, it
Speaker 2: goes in the wrong direction. If it's off to the left,
Speaker 2: it's always trying to get you to buy mung beans,
Speaker 2: because that's of course what the Greens would do.
Speaker 1: If it's pushing you too.
Speaker 2: Far to the right, it's telling you spending too much
Speaker 2: money and put some stuff back. Cole's is launching an
Speaker 2: AI powered smart trolley, following Woolworth's doing something pretty similar,
Speaker 2: so presumably this means what it'll just walk around with you.
Speaker 2: Now I've got a small confession. I went to Walmart
Speaker 2: in Texas, and these things are just as big as
Speaker 2: you think they are. Right, think of like three Bunnings
Speaker 2: next door to each other, all shoved together, and that's
Speaker 2: one shop. And in America there's a few big units.
Speaker 2: So they actually have a series of electronic scooters that
Speaker 2: you can sit and roll around the shops in and
Speaker 2: I tried the first one and it didn't have any power.
Speaker 2: I tried the second one, the third one, the fourth one,
Speaker 2: the fifth one didn't have any power. So at last
Speaker 2: I did not leave that little dream of being a
Speaker 2: fat blow driving around in a Walmart in America. But
Speaker 2: it will happen. It will happen sooner rather than later.
Speaker 2: Keep an eye on my socials for the latest. And
Speaker 2: also back in the United States and back to politics
Speaker 2: just for a moment or two. Here the lefties that
Speaker 2: are losing it well under reader who.
Speaker 1: Just hits it out of the park.
Speaker 2: And she's huge, by the way, every time I'm anywhere
Speaker 2: in the States, plenty of people go, oh, read a
Speaker 2: reader from the YouTube channel Yep. She is an absolute
Speaker 2: start live of course eleven o'clock on the Telly and
Speaker 2: always it's gone news dot com dot AU. Well, she's
Speaker 2: spoken a bit about the hosts from the view, who
Speaker 2: of course are all super sooking because of course Kamala,
Speaker 2: who they thought definitely was going to win, didn't and
Speaker 2: Orange Band bad.
Speaker 1: All the rest of it.
Speaker 2: Well, there's a stupid little theory that's rolling around which
Speaker 2: is suggesting that you should be able to uninvite from
Speaker 2: family functions relabashes as we would call them here. The
Speaker 2: person who you know voted for the person that you didn't,
Speaker 2: and this garbage is actually being talked about on television
Speaker 2: in the US.
Speaker 7: I really do feel that this candidate, you know, President Electrum,
Speaker 7: is just a different type of candidate from the things
Speaker 7: he's said and the things he's done and the things
Speaker 7: he will do. It's more of a moral issue for me,
Speaker 7: and I think it's more of a.
Speaker 8: Moral issue for other people.
Speaker 7: I think when people feel that someone voted not only
Speaker 7: against their families, but against them and against people that
Speaker 7: they loved, I think it's okay to take a.
Speaker 2: Deep Please, please, Sonny and everybody else. Here's how it works.
Speaker 2: If you have a member of your family who you
Speaker 2: would disagree with politically, don't talk about politics. And even
Speaker 2: if the person who you disagree with ab our politics
Speaker 2: tries to bring politics up, be polite and change your topic. Now,
Speaker 2: we love talking about politics. I built a career on it.
Speaker 2: It's why you watch us as regularly as you do.
Speaker 2: We are people who love talking about politics, but we
Speaker 2: all know there is more to life than politics. Imagine
Speaker 2: being so screwed up, so screwed up in your brain
Speaker 2: that you would decide whether or not to invite your
Speaker 2: brother or your sister to Christmas dinner because they vote
Speaker 2: differently than you.
Speaker 1: Now, we all should live in a world where two
Speaker 1: people can disagree with each other.
Speaker 2: There are certain people who love disagreeing with each other
Speaker 2: over dinner, and then they give each other a cuddle
Speaker 2: and they move on.
Speaker 1: But there is so.
Speaker 2: Much else to talk about, like, for example, may I
Speaker 2: again take you? We might even do a course on
Speaker 2: this for how to talk to relatives you politically disagree with.
Speaker 2: First things first, how's your year been? How's work? How's
Speaker 2: the kids? If none of those things apply, have you
Speaker 2: seen anything good on TV this year?
Speaker 1: Did you go to the movies? Read any good books?
Speaker 1: Have you still got that record play?
Speaker 2: There's a million things to talk about. The idea that
Speaker 2: you turn around and say that somebody you disagree with
Speaker 2: you would extricate from your life is madness.
Speaker 1: Now. I'm sure it happens on the right, but it
Speaker 1: feels like it happens on the left.
Speaker 2: I've told you many, many times in the fifteen years
Speaker 2: that I've been sitting here, the greatest job I'll ever
Speaker 2: have in my life. I've lost plenty of friends, plenty
Speaker 2: of mates because they disagree with what said. Politically okay, cool,
Speaker 2: but you have to be serious enough to understand that
Speaker 2: even like Adam band would love his family right.
Speaker 1: I disagree with that everything the man has to say.
Speaker 2: But if Adam Bant was somehow my second cousin and
Speaker 2: I was going to a relay bash, guess what we
Speaker 2: wouldn't talk about politics Because in the real world, politics
Speaker 2: is something to be interested in but not obsessed by.
Speaker 1: In the real world, you judge each other.
Speaker 2: On how you treat each other, not necessarily on what
Speaker 2: you believe or what you would do when it comes
Speaker 2: to a vote every three years or four years. Please,
Speaker 2: if you're the type of person who says I can't
Speaker 2: possibly talk to you because I politically disagree with you,
Speaker 2: then guess what you are not the person with the
Speaker 2: higher hand. You are not the person who was on
Speaker 2: the moral high horse. You're the person who is making
Speaker 2: a massive mistake with their life.
Speaker 1: Agree, disagree, but.
Speaker 2: Just get on with life, which is exactly what we're
Speaker 2: about to do.
Speaker 1: All start. No mucking around tonight. I cannot wait for.
Speaker 2: Brom and Bishop Stephen Conroy and Meghan Kelly it's great
Speaker 2: to be back in the man Cave in beautiful Australia.
Speaker 1: Thanks for watching.
Speaker 2: Yeah, good point to my friends who just sent me
Speaker 2: text saying COVID please. We saw Instagram it was the
Speaker 2: Cigars for two weeks, absolutely correct about why the voice
Speaker 2: might be a little bit off. Join him in out
Speaker 2: to discuss everything here at home and the stuff happening
Speaker 2: around the world. Is the carry out a champ as
Speaker 2: always on a Wednesday night, Bromwin, Bishop of the Man
Speaker 2: who's just here to help labor to his bootstraps, and
Speaker 2: than Stephen Conroy.
Speaker 1: So I'll be honest with you. I was.
Speaker 2: I said it on the day. You saw it all
Speaker 2: in the live coverage. Don't spite the ball be a
Speaker 2: good win? All of that stuff, right, I stand by
Speaker 2: all of it.
Speaker 1: Right. So I've been reading and going Kevin rud should
Speaker 1: he stay? Should he go? Should he stay? Should he go?
Speaker 2: And I was willing to be merciful and say, you
Speaker 2: know what, load, continuity is important, all the rest of it.
Speaker 2: And then I read that Olkham Turnbull has come out
Speaker 2: today and said it would be an absolute mistake for
Speaker 2: us to remove him.
Speaker 1: So Kevin hit the bricks, hit the bricks and bugger off.
Speaker 2: Now, I know that that means you're going to come
Speaker 2: back and you're going to be leading the plan for
Speaker 2: the Royal Commission to shut us down and we're gonna
Speaker 2: have to put up with all of that garbage.
Speaker 5: Right.
Speaker 2: But wherever the ghost is, Stephen, I am in the
Speaker 2: opposite direction.
Speaker 1: And if the ghost.
Speaker 2: Says keep Kevin, then I say hit the bricks poal.
Speaker 1: Look.
Speaker 4: I usually have that as a rule of thumb as well, Paul.
Speaker 4: But as you know, that means Bromwin will be on
Speaker 4: Kevin's side now because the man she voted for Turnbull, Ah,
Speaker 4: he got bored.
Speaker 1: I gonna get in early.
Speaker 5: That's your problem.
Speaker 4: You've got Peter Dutton, You've got Scott Morrison, You've got
Speaker 4: Joe Hockey, you've got Malcolm Turnbull. All are saying the
Speaker 4: same thing.
Speaker 1: Yep.
Speaker 4: Australia has to that behind its ambassadors anywhere in the world,
Speaker 4: no matter what the difficulties are, and we have to
Speaker 4: stand with them, come to deliver on our national interest
Speaker 4: with you on all of the credit to all those things.
Speaker 2: Until my position, yeah, they got me all until then,
Speaker 2: I've seen the ghosts and the ghost when the ghost
Speaker 2: jumps on a bandwagon. I mean, what's his record? You know,
Speaker 2: we're a republic. The voice happened like you know when
Speaker 2: a place duck egg four fifths bugger or anyway. He
Speaker 2: of course too, he said, playing the world everybody miss down?
Speaker 2: All right, bro, saw the whites of your eyes. Then,
Speaker 2: when I was starting to build the case, no, no,
Speaker 2: I'm out now.
Speaker 6: Kind is what is the job of a diplomat?
Speaker 1: Correct?
Speaker 6: The job of a diplomat is to make sure that
Speaker 6: your nation gets the best possible treatment from the country
Speaker 6: to which you are posted.
Speaker 2: Correct, And you have a right to send who you
Speaker 2: believe to be the best represented. But if the circumstances
Speaker 2: change and the incoming is saying pow. And remember it's
Speaker 2: not one comment, it was a pattern of them relentlessly
Speaker 2: because he was part of the same snob class that
Speaker 2: was backing in Kamala.
Speaker 6: There is a nice Latin phrase, persona non grata.
Speaker 1: Yes, and that's I live it every day.
Speaker 6: That's the way he's likely to be treated, which means
Speaker 6: Australia suffers.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 6: Now, the real answer is that Kevin is an intelligent man.
Speaker 6: He should see the dilemma and he should resign that
Speaker 6: would be the proper thing to do.
Speaker 2: Or there'll be some other way, or get kicked up
Speaker 2: to the un After all, we'll see what happens, but.
Speaker 6: It can't be worse than what's there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, correct, all right, So let's get back to where
Speaker 2: I was before, which was about people who said to me, oh, yeah,
Speaker 2: can what happened in America happened here again. I mentioned
Speaker 2: about the financial things. I mentioned about the education things.
Speaker 2: But preferential voting and it's not sort of winner take
Speaker 2: all in terms of states, does make it a little
Speaker 2: bit difficult. That said, the overall headline a week on
Speaker 2: going through the data, going through the reality of where
Speaker 2: the government is versus where the government wants to be.
Speaker 2: Should labor be legitimately worried about being a one term
Speaker 2: government after the model has now been shown where you
Speaker 2: can come back from a pretty dark place in just
Speaker 2: four years and the Libs could do it in three.
Speaker 6: Absolutely, And I would have said that before the result
Speaker 6: in the United States. And when people say it hasn't
Speaker 6: been done since nineteen thirty one or whatever, it is,
Speaker 6: the fact of the matter is when Tony Abbott went
Speaker 6: to the election in two thousand and basically one man
Speaker 6: except for two renegade nats he won. Now, the fact
Speaker 6: of the matter is it can be done, and it
Speaker 6: should be done. And as I said, I would say
Speaker 6: that before what happened in the United.
Speaker 1: States and basically in popular vote in ninety eight.
Speaker 6: So yeah, you've got the popular vote in nineteen ninety Yes,
Speaker 6: so it's not impossible to do it at all. But
Speaker 6: the important thing is this, The Dunton is calm, he's
Speaker 6: got a plan, he's got sets out the direction he's
Speaker 6: traveling in what he stands for. You know, what does
Speaker 6: Albanizi stand for? Socialism?
Speaker 1: That's it? Upgrades?
Speaker 6: Well, the elites always want to be socials always want
Speaker 6: to be the elite.
Speaker 1: Corect Well, no, exactly.
Speaker 2: And look we've seen we've seen pile after poll, focus group,
Speaker 2: but coming back weak in decisive, all the rest of it.
Speaker 1: And again about priorities.
Speaker 2: When they take five when they take three billion dollars
Speaker 2: worth of assistance, the fifteen hundred dollars automatic tax return
Speaker 2: to you, they yanked that, they add five billion dollars
Speaker 2: to the overall public service, All right, Like it's about priorities.
Speaker 2: So Stephen in labor circles now again, you know, trumpy
Speaker 2: in politics, and presentation doesn't work in a country like
Speaker 2: this for a whole collection different reasons. However, electorates always
Speaker 2: reward decisiveness. They always reward decisiveness. And even if all
Speaker 2: of the elites say that you're heading in the wrong direction, well,
Speaker 2: there are plenty of examples we can all look at
Speaker 2: in history where the more decisive leader with a controversial
Speaker 2: plan ends up kicking ass over the person who wants
Speaker 2: to small target and sort of cuddle their way to power.
Speaker 4: Now, look, I think there's some good points there. I mean,
Speaker 4: if there's anyone in labor circles that thinks that Peter
Speaker 4: Dutton is unelectable or this week's string of polls that
Speaker 4: have come out should absolutely be cold hard shivers running
Speaker 4: down their spines if that's what they still think. Now,
Speaker 4: I think they're smart enough to realize that an argument
Speaker 4: about Dutton being unelectable is disappearing very very fast. If
Speaker 4: it ever existed, it certainly doesn't exist today and for
Speaker 4: the next six months. So I think that they need
Speaker 4: to think long and hard about how they're going to
Speaker 4: focus this election. If they think they can do what
Speaker 4: Commala did, just point out Trump and go he's a
Speaker 4: really bad man. He's done lots of horrible things and
Speaker 4: you shouldn't vote for him. It didn't make a difference.
Speaker 4: What the strains are concerned about is the cost of living,
Speaker 4: and so the Labor Party has put in place a
Speaker 4: range of measures. They clearly haven't cut through enough at
Speaker 4: this point. They've got to keep talking about them. They've
Speaker 4: got to do more between now and the election to
Speaker 4: ensure that they're seen to be doing something around cost
Speaker 4: of living and housing.
Speaker 6: They just think they can focus on what are they
Speaker 6: focusing on? Misinformation bills? Correct, this is not what's concerning
Speaker 6: the Australian people. It concerns us because we know it's
Speaker 6: the wrong thing to do. But the point is that
Speaker 6: they're not concentrating on what needs to be done. You've
Speaker 6: got a treasure who just fights with the governor of
Speaker 6: the Reserve Bank. I know your attitude to the Reserve Bank,
Speaker 6: but nonetheless it doesn't cut through as being a government
Speaker 6: in charge of its own agenda. You've got a Prime
Speaker 6: minister who every time he makes a mistake, this time
Speaker 6: they put him a plane to go to some conference
Speaker 6: in the Pacific Islands or heaven forbid, off the cop
Speaker 6: when nobody important is going at all, so there is
Speaker 6: no direction about what is this government trying to do
Speaker 6: for the Australian people. Dutn is saying we're going to
Speaker 6: give you cheaper electricity, really not like the promise at
Speaker 6: Albert twenty four one that will mean that the lights
Speaker 6: won't go out. We're looking at the ridiculous situation in
Speaker 6: twenty day where China is saying you Australia have got
Speaker 6: to kick in one point eight trillion dollars a year
Speaker 6: to give to including US China because where are developing country?
Speaker 6: I mean, the whole debate is nonsense. And yet the
Speaker 6: various sections of the community in Australia that are now
Speaker 6: starting to say, no, you can't destroy our farmlands. No,
Speaker 6: you've got no plan to what happens to the the
Speaker 6: windmills and the solar panels when they're twenty years old
Speaker 6: and they've got to be going to landfill?
Speaker 1: Who's going to pay for that?
Speaker 6: Important questions plus cost of living are just not being
Speaker 6: answered well.
Speaker 2: Also also really important about the climate change stuff. Right,
Speaker 2: less than three percent of people had it as their
Speaker 2: top three issue.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 2: Secondly, also with the with Trump pulling out of the
Speaker 2: Paris Agreement. It means all the garbage in and around
Speaker 2: twenty thirty and twenty thirty five really blows away, and
Speaker 2: it's a conversation about twenty fifty. Now, of course, all
Speaker 2: of that matters, because remember, China can keep doing whatever
Speaker 2: the heck it wants till twenty thirty, whatever it wants
Speaker 2: till twenty thirty.
Speaker 1: And sorry to rub sold into.
Speaker 2: The wounds, Stephen, because I know you will worre quite
Speaker 2: the Kamala fan, but I just want you to imagine
Speaker 2: what's happening in the next four years, which is Donald
Speaker 2: Trump will be there on the two hundred and fiftieth
Speaker 2: birthday of the United States, and Donald Trump will be
Speaker 2: there to open the twenty twenty eight Olympic Games in
Speaker 2: Los Angeles. All right, So all those things you were
Speaker 2: looking forward to Kamala doing, on top of everything else,
Speaker 2: you're going to get Trump, which brings me too.
Speaker 1: There's a moment in time when if you're a super.
Speaker 2: Political fan, you end up sort of watching a lot
Speaker 2: of people and you think, oh, you know, I always
Speaker 2: love this person because this person is always it never
Speaker 2: steers me wrong, right, And it's not at all an
Speaker 2: age thing.
Speaker 1: It is just sometimes about.
Speaker 2: Can you believe somebody if they told you one thing
Speaker 2: last week and they tell you another.
Speaker 1: Thing the next week.
Speaker 2: Right now, James Carville was, of course, the big brain
Speaker 2: behind is the economy stupid all the rest of it
Speaker 2: back in nineteen ninety two. He's been fascinating, amazing, incredible
Speaker 2: on television and if I had any chance in my
Speaker 2: life to sit and talk to him for an hour,
Speaker 2: I'd gladly do so. There's a great documentary about his life,
Speaker 2: particularly how hard he was working to get rid of
Speaker 2: Biden at the end.
Speaker 1: But he put out an.
Speaker 2: Opinion piece a couple of weeks before the election where
Speaker 2: he said, Harris will win. He listened all the reasons
Speaker 2: why she will win. He was clear in video after
Speaker 2: video after video after video after video about why she
Speaker 2: will win, not just blue. She was you should win,
Speaker 2: Why I think she can win. It was definitive, it
Speaker 2: was absolute. And when you got a backside handed to her, well,
Speaker 2: he's now turning around and saying he always knew that.
Speaker 2: What was the direct opposite of what he said was
Speaker 2: what he thought.
Speaker 5: Have no legislative power, we have no executive power, we
Speaker 5: have no judicial power. So when you out of power,
Speaker 5: you are an opposition party, and go and tell all
Speaker 5: of the people that are sending you and asking you
Speaker 5: for money, justify what you did, Justify what you did wrong,
Speaker 5: and tell us what you're going to do different, because
Speaker 5: what you've done a worth. Get your head around that
Speaker 5: in all of the Washington based Democrats farting around going
Speaker 5: to wine and cheese parties and talking about how masagey
Speaker 5: initiagly to get yours out of Washington and go work
Speaker 5: on a twenty twenty six campaign and do penance to
Speaker 5: make up for your goddamn arrogance and stupidity. Well, we've
Speaker 5: got to say we told you so. We told you
Speaker 5: this a dentist was disaster. We told you to get
Speaker 5: out in front of public safety issues.
Speaker 1: You didn't.
Speaker 5: We told you to have an open process and demonstrate
Speaker 5: the magnificent and staggering and deep talented existed of my
Speaker 5: Democratic Party.
Speaker 1: You didn't.
Speaker 5: We told you to differentiate yourself a Biden.
Speaker 1: You didn't.
Speaker 5: I hate to be know it all, but all of
Speaker 5: these things are part of the record.
Speaker 1: He is amazing, He's an incredible political brain.
Speaker 2: But I got to say it takes a little step
Speaker 2: back for me after saying one thing one week and
Speaker 2: then being the other.
Speaker 1: So I want to ask both of you, guys, the's
Speaker 1: people who obviously wear a jersey. You've team written Team
Speaker 1: I bet James Coffin, do you want to say something?
Speaker 5: Yes?
Speaker 3: I do.
Speaker 6: Okay, this is the book he wrote when he was
Speaker 6: at the peak of his past, and if he reread
Speaker 6: his own book, he'd never written that article.
Speaker 1: Yes, very good point.
Speaker 6: What he started was out there is starting to reflect
Speaker 6: on what is in here. In fact, if you read
Speaker 6: this book and I have been ready for a long times,
Speaker 6: even the autograph cop.
Speaker 1: I know, look at you.
Speaker 5: The bottom line is.
Speaker 6: That all the things he said you should do, Trump
Speaker 6: did yes, and like fight fight fight, that's what he
Speaker 6: always says you should do. So just where you read
Speaker 6: your book again?
Speaker 1: All right, So thirty second version from both of you.
Speaker 2: Right, You've got you've got friends, a career to look
Speaker 2: back on, and again you wear the jerseys of Team
Speaker 2: Red and Team But how do you make sure that
Speaker 2: you never fall into that whole problem?
Speaker 1: And where we will win? We will win, We will win.
Speaker 1: I know we'll win. We'll win.
Speaker 2: This many seats in this many played, like all of
Speaker 2: that definitive, you know, buck up, and then the week
Speaker 2: after I never that You've got to make sure you
Speaker 2: just never because I'm pretty fluent in how formal police speak, right,
Speaker 2: and I can tell when you're all in or whether
Speaker 2: you're just doing the best you can.
Speaker 6: I believe Trump would win, yes, when everybody said on
Speaker 6: a coming, I had these arguments correct, and I kept
Speaker 6: saying he would win. But I did that because of
Speaker 6: my own research, if you like, and looking at just
Speaker 6: what didn't make sense. I saw the polls being used
Speaker 6: as as really propaganda material, not trying to be realistic
Speaker 6: at all. So there is the very real thing that
Speaker 6: you always must have. Says it now. I say Peter
Speaker 6: Dutton can win the next election, yes, because I've looked
Speaker 6: at what is happening.
Speaker 2: But this is the thing, and if he doesn't, you're
Speaker 2: not going to turn around and say I never will
Speaker 2: be looking for some honesty in feedback, And again, Stephen,
Speaker 2: again it hurts me to say that one of the
Speaker 2: greats is not as great.
Speaker 1: As he used to be because of that thing.
Speaker 2: But again, as a person who you want your team
Speaker 2: to win, but each and every week you make it
Speaker 2: very clear that you're not going to lie on their
Speaker 2: behalf about their chances.
Speaker 4: No, I think you've got to. Brockman has been in
Speaker 4: politics longer than me, So you just have to always
Speaker 4: accept that the Electric get it right. Even if you
Speaker 4: think that the arguments you're putting forward and your team's
Speaker 4: putting forward are the correct ones. The Electric always get
Speaker 4: it right. And Carvill's dead right about what's happened in
Speaker 4: the US in what he said.
Speaker 1: In the last few.
Speaker 4: Days, and there's a lot of lessons and messages that
Speaker 4: he's given there that we need to pay attention to
Speaker 4: here in Australia or we may lose.
Speaker 1: Yep, see there we go. I like the honest. Are
Speaker 1: you always here to help in both directions? I appreciate it.
Speaker 1: Thank you guys, love you to see you hear from
Speaker 1: the men. Cab'le see you're get next week or a
Speaker 1: quick breakday. We're more.
Speaker 2: Meghan Kelly from the United States. Oh, she's on fire today.
Speaker 2: Our favorite time to talk to our favorite person, Meghan Kelly,
Speaker 2: The Meg and Kelly Show. Find it on Youtubeer serious XM.
Speaker 2: Do you still feel like it's buzzing? I'm still on
Speaker 2: cloud nine, mate?
Speaker 8: What about you same?
Speaker 3: I truly haven't felt this euphoric. I don't remember the
Speaker 3: last certainly not professionally. When do you ever feel professionally euphoric?
Speaker 3: Just I'm absolutely thrilled, and I do just feel like
Speaker 3: in many ways our country was saved. It was saved
Speaker 3: by what happened last Tuesday. It's not that it would
Speaker 3: have gone away had she won, But I just don't
Speaker 3: know how we would have handled four more years of
Speaker 3: that far left rule and the open borders, the number
Speaker 3: of dead Americans we would have had, I mean, the war.
Speaker 3: I just I feel, truly, it's like the dawn of
Speaker 3: a new day. I feel hopeful about my children. I'm
Speaker 3: walking around clicking my heels.
Speaker 1: Now the world has moved on from Kamala Harris. Could
Speaker 1: we just take a sick just a little second.
Speaker 2: She raises a billion dollars, spends it all, and ends
Speaker 2: up twenty million dollars in dead heck did.
Speaker 1: She do that?
Speaker 3: It's undbelievable if these reports are true, and some of
Speaker 3: them we've seen ourselves. So I'll get to the Oprah
Speaker 3: one in one second. But she reportedly paid five million
Speaker 3: dollars to Megan V. Stallion to perform one of her
Speaker 3: rallies five million dollars. And the reason she did that
Speaker 3: is because Kamala Harris could get no crowds. She had
Speaker 3: a couple when she first announced, it was like, oh,
Speaker 3: this is exciting, there's a there's a switcheroo, the dead
Speaker 3: guy's not running anymore in favor, and so there was
Speaker 3: a little in the beginning, and then they realized she
Speaker 3: stinks and they weren't coming, and so they spent five
Speaker 3: million dollars to say, oh, basically, come to a Megan
Speaker 3: Thee Stallion concert, and people did. And then they realized,
Speaker 3: oh my god, this is the way we're going to
Speaker 3: do it. This is how we're going to get people
Speaker 3: to show up. We're going to tell him Beyonce's going
Speaker 3: to be here and they'll show up, which they did,
Speaker 3: but then Beyonce didn't perform, but still got a bunch
Speaker 3: of money.
Speaker 8: And then we get to the Oprah thing.
Speaker 3: Now, you and I both know, and Oprah still considers
Speaker 3: herself a journalist. As far as I understand, you and
Speaker 3: I both know, if we want an interview with Kamala Harris,
Speaker 3: one thing we would not be allowed to do is
Speaker 3: to say we'll pay you money. Kamala Harris or you
Speaker 3: pay us money and we can make this interview happen.
Speaker 3: Both of those are totally unethical. No money is to
Speaker 3: change hands between actual journalists and their subjects. And the
Speaker 3: only exception to that rule is you can pay for
Speaker 3: their expenses for like a light out to know the interview,
Speaker 3: and you can pay for if you need to like
Speaker 3: license their wedding photos because you're doing an in depth picture.
Speaker 8: You know, profile, and then that's okay.
Speaker 3: Well, somehow or another, Oprah's profile of Kamala Harris wound
Speaker 3: up costing Kamala Harris a million dollars. A million because
Speaker 3: that big town hall in which Oprah Winfrey kept yelling
Speaker 3: at us comber so annoying. She charged Kamala Harris two
Speaker 3: payments of five hundred thousand dollars for that. And Oprah
Speaker 3: was caught on camera this morning by one of those
Speaker 3: TMZ type guys saying, Oprah, you took a million dollars
Speaker 3: for that interview, and Oprah said no, I wasn't paid anything.
Speaker 3: So the payments were to Harpo Productions, her production company,
Speaker 3: So I guess ostensibly they could set up that set.
Speaker 3: I've been on a lot of beautiful sets. Beautiful that
Speaker 3: they had to build is a million dollars? Never heard
Speaker 3: of such a thing, do not? And what I saw
Speaker 3: there would have been pricey a million. No, by the way,
Speaker 3: I'm sure Harpo Productions already has a beautiful stage that
Speaker 3: she could have gone to and to add some video
Speaker 3: screens like that you rent, you're not buying. How is
Speaker 3: it a million dollar? I don't get it to me.
Speaker 3: It seems like she was greased. They greased Harpo Productions,
Speaker 3: and Oprah naturally wanted Comma to win anyway, so everybody wins, like,
Speaker 3: here's a million dollars, we're just burning our donors' money.
Speaker 3: And Oprah looks like a hero because we all know,
Speaker 3: just like Meryl Streep said, we all know com Let's
Speaker 3: get a win.
Speaker 5: I know you're gonna win.
Speaker 8: Meryl said, Madam President. Ooh, who I didn't mean. I
Speaker 8: meant vice president.
Speaker 3: So the fix was in how many those people got paid?
Speaker 3: Is that where the money went? Did Merrill get a payment?
Speaker 3: Did Jlo get a payment? Did Chris Rock get a payment?
Speaker 3: Is there were a lot of stars there that night.
Speaker 3: How much did they get, if any, for their endorsement?
Speaker 3: They're totally organic endorsement. Would love to know.
Speaker 2: I think it's particularly ridiculous the one hundred thousand dollars
Speaker 2: that were spent replicating the set of the sex podcast
Speaker 2: Call Her Daddy. Now, this is because Harris wouldn't go
Speaker 2: to them, so they came to her, but they wanted
Speaker 2: it to look like she went to them, so they
Speaker 2: faked an entire podcast set in a hotel room, and
Speaker 2: for one hundred thousand dollars. Here's what they should have done. Okay, Now, Ika,
Speaker 2: she wants to be in a certain way, shot a
Speaker 2: certain way.
Speaker 1: His how it works.
Speaker 2: You set up a camera in a hotel room, and
Speaker 2: you set up another camera for somebody who's going to
Speaker 2: be interviewing you, okay, and you.
Speaker 1: Do exactly what all those movie stars.
Speaker 2: Do when they're promoting something, which is that your line
Speaker 2: for interviewers up, Thanks very much. You're give them the tape.
Speaker 2: You give them the tape, You give them the tape. They
Speaker 2: did not need to do this.
Speaker 3: Yeah, So, first of all, that is a campaign that
Speaker 3: does not give a fig about their donors' money. They
Speaker 3: couldn't care less about using that money wisely. I don't
Speaker 3: know how how it costs one hundred thousand dollars to
Speaker 3: replicate a set of a podcast.
Speaker 8: I really don't.
Speaker 3: I mean, I'll just give you. I'll lift the dress
Speaker 3: up here, Paul. We did an in depth interview with
Speaker 3: the stolen Valor guys, Tim Walls's platoon mates, who were saying,
Speaker 3: you know, he lied about his rank, He'd lied about this,
Speaker 3: lied about the other thing.
Speaker 8: We had to get a place off site. We rented it.
Speaker 3: We had to bring in a big team to mike
Speaker 3: the guys, to shoot it, to light it, all the
Speaker 3: bit we had to fly them in.
Speaker 8: I think all in.
Speaker 3: That whole thing was like fifteen thousand bucks, which is
Speaker 3: not cheap.
Speaker 8: But I don't the Call.
Speaker 3: Her Daddy it was the one lady, the host and
Speaker 3: Kamala in a hotel room. Like well, they had to
Speaker 3: make it look like the Call Her Daddy set. I
Speaker 3: looked at the set. It had a couple plants, a
Speaker 3: couple lights, a couple of books, and the letters with
Speaker 3: the podcast name I for the Love of Me. Do
Speaker 3: not have any clue how that bill gets run up
Speaker 3: to one hundred thousand dollars. It's like they wanted to
Speaker 3: buy people's love. It's like they wanted to flush it
Speaker 3: down because there's some rule that you shouldn't be left
Speaker 3: with any in the coffers. I'm sure the donors don't
Speaker 3: know about that rule. And what happened in the end
Speaker 3: was they actually ran out of money. They didn't have
Speaker 3: all that money in the bank still to pay all
Speaker 3: they get out the voters. It's not why she lost,
Speaker 3: but it wasn't good money or time management. And so
Speaker 3: she had spent so much on freaking Oprah that we
Speaker 3: talked to the get out the vote person for Trump today.
Speaker 8: She was saying to Michigan, I never saw them.
Speaker 3: Our people were all over the streets knocking on the
Speaker 3: doors of the Muslim community, the Arab of community.
Speaker 8: Never saw them. Two guys one time. That was it.
Speaker 8: I think it's because
Speaker 3: Megan the million was busy spending the money that should
Speaker 3: have been paying for canvassers.
