Coming 0:00:12.160 --> 0:00:15.600 up tonight, the Albanezy government accused of squandering a four 0:00:15.680 --> 0:00:19.360 hundred billion dollar win for Patrick Kyline will. 0:00:19.239 --> 0:00:21.440 Be year to discuss the day's top headlines. 0:00:21.880 --> 0:00:25.800 The big immigration like exposed as data shows that low 0:00:25.840 --> 0:00:27.200 skilled workers. 0:00:26.760 --> 0:00:28.880 Are a net drain on the economy. 0:00:28.960 --> 0:00:32.600 Kosher Gata will have the details they always droll. 0:00:32.680 --> 0:00:35.319 Alex Steiner the latest from the US, and later in. 0:00:35.280 --> 0:00:39.400 The hour, seventy Bastion joins me to discuss why feminists 0:00:39.400 --> 0:00:43.320 the Loud and Proud Sisterhood are silent as shopping mi soverigny, 0:00:43.479 --> 0:00:46.080 institutional violence by the CFMU. 0:00:46.280 --> 0:00:50.199 He is exposed, and of course we never neglect Lefty is. 0:00:50.159 --> 0:00:54.960 Losing it Tonight, starring these two lovely lasses who spat 0:00:55.000 --> 0:01:01.920 on a man for being pro israt. 0:01:04.000 --> 0:01:11.679 Oens Yes, but first to an overgrown, spoiled brash with 0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:15.520 a chronic case of entitlement who winges and wines more 0:01:15.520 --> 0:01:19.000 than Greta Thunberg, despite being a billionaire living the most 0:01:19.120 --> 0:01:21.280 charm life imaginable. 0:01:20.640 --> 0:01:24.160 With a string of multi million dollar properties from his 0:01:24.280 --> 0:01:27.160 mansion and the historic town of Windsor to his skiing 0:01:27.200 --> 0:01:29.959 property in Whistler. And then there's the yachts. I mean, 0:01:30.000 --> 0:01:33.040 one cannot yacht in the Mediterranean at one's leisure without 0:01:33.120 --> 0:01:39.360 access to appropriately luxurious water vessels. Of course, despite living 0:01:39.400 --> 0:01:42.520 this charm life, John Hancock has decided to moan to 0:01:42.600 --> 0:01:46.320 the media this guy makes Prince Harry and Meghan Markle 0:01:46.520 --> 0:01:48.480 seem grateful and relatable. 0:01:49.000 --> 0:01:49.640 Here is a. 0:01:49.600 --> 0:01:53.280 Direct quote from the piece that appeared in The Australian. 0:01:53.880 --> 0:01:58.360 The dividends I received from Hancock prospecting annually don't even 0:01:58.440 --> 0:02:03.080 cover my lawyer's bills, let alone may yacht, Hancock quips. 0:02:03.760 --> 0:02:08.359 The victim playing is off the charts. This manchild is a. 0:02:08.320 --> 0:02:13.920 Multi billionaire with a bee among Australia's fifty richest, and 0:02:14.000 --> 0:02:16.919 yet he's not only suing his own mother for more, 0:02:17.400 --> 0:02:20.520 but he's now using the media to attack her, to 0:02:20.560 --> 0:02:22.520 demean her and her achievements. 0:02:22.560 --> 0:02:24.760 It's frankly shameful. 0:02:24.800 --> 0:02:27.760 It's the sort of petulant antiques that one would expect 0:02:27.800 --> 0:02:31.760 from a teenager or a toddler, not a fully formed man. 0:02:32.560 --> 0:02:36.080 As a mother, I struggle to understand how any son 0:02:36.240 --> 0:02:39.399 could drag his own mother into court for a decade 0:02:39.440 --> 0:02:42.760 long battle, and to top it off, Wine to the 0:02:42.840 --> 0:02:48.680 National Broadsheet claiming Australia's most successful business person isn't really 0:02:48.680 --> 0:02:49.880 that good at business. 0:02:50.320 --> 0:02:51.680 Let me read from the piece. 0:02:52.280 --> 0:02:57.679 Hancock is largely dismissive of his mother's track record, describing 0:02:57.720 --> 0:03:01.440 a string of investments as toilet flushes charming. 0:03:02.160 --> 0:03:04.240 And this is a direct quote. I think it's very 0:03:04.240 --> 0:03:05.799 interesting that projects my. 0:03:05.840 --> 0:03:09.080 Grandfather discovered or applied for, such as roy Hill, have 0:03:09.200 --> 0:03:13.560 gone very well. The jury is out on some of 0:03:13.600 --> 0:03:18.600 my mother's recent acquisitions, or really, that's how he wants 0:03:18.639 --> 0:03:21.400 to characterize the achievements of the woman who took a 0:03:21.840 --> 0:03:26.000 struggling business beset by all sorts of serious financial issues, 0:03:26.560 --> 0:03:31.200 and transformed it into a goliath that employs thousands of Australians, 0:03:31.760 --> 0:03:34.920 exports record amounts of iron ore, and is one of 0:03:34.960 --> 0:03:41.400 the country's biggest corporate taxpayers, contributing billions annually in federal 0:03:41.440 --> 0:03:45.000 and state taxes. Let me read now from a Sunday 0:03:45.040 --> 0:03:46.280 Times editorial. 0:03:46.840 --> 0:03:48.840 When Gina Ryan Hart took. 0:03:48.640 --> 0:03:51.920 Over Hancock Prospecting after the death of her father Lang 0:03:51.960 --> 0:03:56.800 Hancock in nineteen ninety two, she inherited a company on 0:03:56.960 --> 0:04:01.200 the brink, far from their powerhouse it is today. Hancock 0:04:01.240 --> 0:04:05.640 Prospecting had significant debts and many of its assets were 0:04:05.760 --> 0:04:06.560 under mortgage. 0:04:07.360 --> 0:04:09.040 That is the reality, and one. 0:04:08.920 --> 0:04:13.280 Would hope a man who has benefited from gener Reinhart's 0:04:13.360 --> 0:04:14.680 enormous success. 0:04:14.360 --> 0:04:16.720 Would be a little more appreciative. 0:04:17.240 --> 0:04:20.760 You think his mother's achievements would be a source of pride. 0:04:21.279 --> 0:04:22.159 Just think of how. 0:04:22.000 --> 0:04:27.080 Many hospitals, schools, roads have been built thanks to the 0:04:27.160 --> 0:04:31.480 billions Hancock Prospecting has paid in taxes. Missus ryan Hart 0:04:31.480 --> 0:04:35.760 has also been the country's largest private taxpayer. And on 0:04:35.839 --> 0:04:38.279 top of all that, she is a generous supporter of 0:04:38.400 --> 0:04:43.880 charitable causes, helping so many, often quietly without fanfare or 0:04:44.000 --> 0:04:50.080 media coverage. That generosity benefits a number of medical, educational, 0:04:50.160 --> 0:04:55.800 community and sporting organizations, including of course Australian Olympians, and 0:04:55.839 --> 0:04:59.080 it must be noted that that generosity is not confined 0:04:59.080 --> 0:05:02.479 to Australia. Jean Jenna Einhardt was honored by the King 0:05:02.520 --> 0:05:05.920 of Cambodia with the country's highest award for non citizens 0:05:05.960 --> 0:05:09.800 for the work her foundation does in rescuing impoverished girls 0:05:09.800 --> 0:05:14.479 from a horrendous fate, giving them safety, giving them housing 0:05:14.560 --> 0:05:18.320 and education, and the means to break the cycle of 0:05:18.440 --> 0:05:22.680 extreme poverty. None of that was in this piece. In 0:05:22.760 --> 0:05:27.680 the lengthy wingch fest, where John Hancock jokes about stock 0:05:27.760 --> 0:05:32.960 market plays, this next passage was again so relatable. He 0:05:33.080 --> 0:05:36.320 notes with a laugh that one recent play to short 0:05:36.360 --> 0:05:40.800 Commonwealth bank stocks has yet to bear fruit. The numbers 0:05:40.800 --> 0:05:43.719 are so small. I might be putting ten grand here 0:05:43.800 --> 0:05:47.080 and there. It's more just to keep my mind active. 0:05:47.160 --> 0:05:52.200 I guess a hobby of sorts. He says, yes, so 0:05:52.600 --> 0:05:56.240 relatable during a cost of living crisis. Just ten grand 0:05:56.240 --> 0:05:58.880 here or their hobby of sorts. Who cares if it 0:05:58.960 --> 0:06:02.560 bears fruit. I have seldom read a piece that was 0:06:02.640 --> 0:06:06.680 so lacking in introspection, humility, rationality. 0:06:07.200 --> 0:06:08.560 Whoever told him. 0:06:09.080 --> 0:06:12.520 This supposed tell all was a good idea was lying 0:06:12.560 --> 0:06:16.040 to him or just incompetent. I'm not a lawyer. I'm 0:06:16.040 --> 0:06:19.240 not going to pass any sort of judgment on the 0:06:19.320 --> 0:06:23.599 long running legal case launched by John Hancock against Gina 0:06:23.680 --> 0:06:26.680 rein Hart. But I will say this, it would be 0:06:26.720 --> 0:06:31.800 a cold day in hell when I even consider suing 0:06:32.000 --> 0:06:33.119 my own mother. 0:06:34.080 --> 0:06:36.560 There are some things worth more than money. 0:06:37.400 --> 0:06:40.760 Now our position leader Peter Dutton has called for sweeping 0:06:40.839 --> 0:06:45.480 reforms in response to damning corruption allegations involving the CFMEU 0:06:45.600 --> 0:06:47.919 and the Victorian state government. 0:06:48.000 --> 0:06:49.559 Let's hear from the opposition leader. 0:06:50.160 --> 0:06:53.320 We've essentially got organized crime figures running the construction sector 0:06:53.360 --> 0:06:57.000 in this country. This is the biggest corruption scandal in 0:06:57.000 --> 0:06:58.800 our country's history. Are we going to clean it up? 0:06:58.839 --> 0:07:01.599 In the Rico style? Lords worked in the United States 0:07:01.640 --> 0:07:03.599 and they can work here in Australia as well. The 0:07:03.640 --> 0:07:07.320 CFMEU still sits on the National Executive of the Australian 0:07:07.400 --> 0:07:10.760 Labor Party. The CFMU is not going anywhere and that's 0:07:10.760 --> 0:07:12.960 why they need to be deregistered and bring it a 0:07:13.040 --> 0:07:16.520 union like the AWU to provide the important work, particularly 0:07:16.520 --> 0:07:19.280 on building sites around workplace health and safety. We think 0:07:19.320 --> 0:07:20.520 that is very important. 0:07:20.800 --> 0:07:24.520 According to media reports, the Victorian government's Big build has 0:07:24.560 --> 0:07:28.360 been employing by keys linked to the CFMMEU who don't 0:07:28.400 --> 0:07:32.080 even turn up to work but collect around eleven thousand 0:07:32.120 --> 0:07:35.640 dollars a week, with bank records revealing that these payments 0:07:35.720 --> 0:07:40.080 continued even after government promises last year to reform the 0:07:40.120 --> 0:07:44.400 construction sector. This is all funded by taxpayers and the 0:07:44.440 --> 0:07:48.760 most debt riddled state in the country. Big bill construction 0:07:48.880 --> 0:07:51.960 firms are also alleged to have been paying off at 0:07:52.040 --> 0:07:57.280 law motorcycle gangs on infrastructure projects via dummy companies to 0:07:57.440 --> 0:08:00.840 stop them from taking industrial action. And there are also 0:08:00.960 --> 0:08:06.080 shocking allegations of violence being perpetrated against female workers in 0:08:06.160 --> 0:08:16.360 particular and a warning. This next clip is particularly distressing. 0:08:17.400 --> 0:08:20.720 It's a cowardly attack on a woman carried out by 0:08:20.920 --> 0:08:24.680 a c form me you health and safety representative while 0:08:24.840 --> 0:08:29.320 on his lunch break from a Victorian government rail project. 0:08:29.560 --> 0:08:32.040 That's a health and safety rep. 0:08:32.400 --> 0:08:36.760 Meanwhile, the Victorian government continues to play dumb despite being 0:08:36.840 --> 0:08:38.760 warned of these issues for some time. 0:08:38.840 --> 0:08:41.800 Now. This is what the Premier had to say. This 0:08:41.840 --> 0:08:43.040 is Premier justent to Alan. 0:08:43.360 --> 0:08:47.480 I was absolutely sickened to my core to see that 0:08:47.640 --> 0:08:52.000 footage of an allegation of a woman being assaulted and 0:08:52.040 --> 0:08:56.439 the experience of other women on work sites here in Victoria. 0:08:56.720 --> 0:08:59.640 This is wrong, This is not right, and my thoughts 0:08:59.679 --> 0:09:03.120 are weird those women. We moved quickly last year with 0:09:03.640 --> 0:09:09.599 a zero tolerance approach to this bullying, intimidatory and allegations 0:09:09.640 --> 0:09:10.839 of illegal behavior. 0:09:11.480 --> 0:09:13.760 Joining me now for more on this is News. Corps 0:09:13.840 --> 0:09:18.959 senior writer Patrick Carline. Patrick only laughed because this supposes 0:09:19.040 --> 0:09:23.800 zero tolerance that the premiere refers to is completely lacking. 0:09:24.240 --> 0:09:26.840 This is something the labor government here has been warned 0:09:26.880 --> 0:09:30.480 about time and time again. They turn a blind eye 0:09:30.559 --> 0:09:32.080 because it's in the interest to do so. 0:09:32.640 --> 0:09:35.160 Look, there's a complete lack of accountability here. I mean 0:09:35.320 --> 0:09:37.960 this was coming out last year. Obviously, it's been an 0:09:38.000 --> 0:09:43.679 open secret within the industry for decades. The Allen government 0:09:43.720 --> 0:09:47.679 doesn't want people looking at this too closely. It's been 0:09:47.720 --> 0:09:49.920 pushing against it, and it's happened at a federal level 0:09:49.960 --> 0:09:53.240 as well. And we're talking about billions, tens of billions 0:09:53.240 --> 0:09:57.120 of dollars of Victorian taxpayers money. In this case, we 0:09:57.200 --> 0:10:00.719 see big bill projects as they call go over, they 0:10:00.720 --> 0:10:05.000 get delayed because there's extortionist type practices on the sides. 0:10:05.200 --> 0:10:07.840 It's been going on forever and there is a complete 0:10:07.920 --> 0:10:10.240 lack of accountability, and I think people are sick of it. 0:10:10.240 --> 0:10:13.000 It's like where our bankrupt is a state? Where does 0:10:13.040 --> 0:10:13.439 it stop? 0:10:14.440 --> 0:10:17.480 You've got people Mum and Dad investors being forced to 0:10:17.520 --> 0:10:20.600 sell their little investment properties because the land tax is 0:10:20.640 --> 0:10:25.160 so exorbitant. Because this state is debt red riddled and 0:10:25.200 --> 0:10:28.800 they must be looking on by kids collecting eleven grand 0:10:28.840 --> 0:10:32.560 a week and not even showing up. It's like we 0:10:32.640 --> 0:10:35.280 live in two different countries in this state. 0:10:35.920 --> 0:10:37.400 It's as those who are. 0:10:37.280 --> 0:10:41.839 In in the system who are benefiting enormously from tax 0:10:41.880 --> 0:10:44.400 payer funds, and then there's the rest of us who 0:10:44.480 --> 0:10:48.080 are killing ourselves trying to keep everything afloat. 0:10:48.320 --> 0:10:49.040 And look, it's been. 0:10:48.960 --> 0:10:51.280 Going on for years and years. That is not a 0:10:51.320 --> 0:10:54.280 secret anymore. And that the lack of response and the 0:10:54.360 --> 0:10:57.000 lack of sort of energy that has gone into trying 0:10:57.040 --> 0:10:59.079 to address this. It's the same with the bail laws 0:10:59.080 --> 0:11:02.040 here in Victoria. This has been going for three years 0:11:02.040 --> 0:11:04.040 where people are getting attacked in their own homes and 0:11:04.080 --> 0:11:07.120 finally the governments realized, oh this is bad, Oh we 0:11:07.200 --> 0:11:09.160 must do something about it. I mean, it is a 0:11:09.200 --> 0:11:11.080 sort of symptom of something bigger. 0:11:11.000 --> 0:11:15.000 It is, and surprisingly those bail laws are going to 0:11:15.040 --> 0:11:18.600 be reformed, coinciding with some opinion polls showing it's quite 0:11:18.600 --> 0:11:23.520 a big issue. Before that they were just reviewing. Now 0:11:23.600 --> 0:11:28.480 let's look at some further evidence of Labour's economic mismanagement. 0:11:29.240 --> 0:11:33.400 Analysis commissioned by the Australian Financial review has revealed that 0:11:33.440 --> 0:11:36.959 the federal government has wasted four hundred billion dollars. 0:11:37.000 --> 0:11:37.560 This is a. 0:11:37.960 --> 0:11:41.640 Massive revenue wind four since it was elected in twenty 0:11:41.679 --> 0:11:44.679 twenty two. Chris richardson Rights in the AFR, Australia has 0:11:44.760 --> 0:11:47.920 never seen rivers of gold like this, and what did 0:11:47.920 --> 0:11:51.040 the Albanezer government decide to do with it? Drive a 0:11:51.120 --> 0:11:56.120 major expansion in the size of government. Australia's prosperity should 0:11:56.160 --> 0:11:59.120 be soaring with this kind of wealth being generated, living 0:11:59.200 --> 0:12:02.760 standards should be improving, but instead the growth in living 0:12:02.800 --> 0:12:06.360 standards in Australia remains one of the slowest in the world. 0:12:06.400 --> 0:12:10.240 Patrick. Four hundred billion all but squandered. 0:12:10.640 --> 0:12:12.680 It's a huge amount of money, isn't it, And the 0:12:12.720 --> 0:12:15.160 fact that that money has been raised through things that 0:12:15.200 --> 0:12:18.600 have nothing to do with government policy. We got lucky, 0:12:18.920 --> 0:12:20.600 but we're sort of done lucky, aren't we, in the 0:12:20.600 --> 0:12:22.600 sense where you actually get all this extra money that 0:12:22.640 --> 0:12:26.319 we weren't budgeting for and we spend it all. Inflation 0:12:26.640 --> 0:12:30.959 has increased those revenues as well, and Australian taxpayers are 0:12:31.000 --> 0:12:33.400 suffering and they have been suffering for years and years. 0:12:33.480 --> 0:12:36.640 Living standards have stayed low. They can't afford to pay 0:12:36.640 --> 0:12:40.160 off the house mortgage or the power bill or whatever. 0:12:40.320 --> 0:12:42.280 And all this money has come in and it's not 0:12:42.320 --> 0:12:44.040 coming back to the Australian. 0:12:43.520 --> 0:12:48.080 People no, and our taxes are going up because the 0:12:48.120 --> 0:12:51.320 insane ways means that government is now even more reluctant 0:12:51.360 --> 0:12:54.680 to do anything to address bracket creep, which is set 0:12:54.720 --> 0:12:58.320 to push the average Australian worker into the thirty seven 0:12:58.360 --> 0:13:02.800 percent bracket by twenty thirty one if the system remains unchanged. 0:13:02.880 --> 0:13:07.640 Big government patrick means big expenditure and the bureaucracy has 0:13:07.760 --> 0:13:11.160 exploded under labor and they've got to pay for it somehow. 0:13:11.200 --> 0:13:15.000 So you can see this reluctance to actually address bracket creep. 0:13:15.080 --> 0:13:18.320 People are in tax brackets that they shouldn't be. 0:13:18.880 --> 0:13:21.120 That's right. And look as time goes on, obviously you 0:13:21.200 --> 0:13:24.360 earn more money as your wage increases and you pay 0:13:24.400 --> 0:13:28.040 more tax. And Terry mccran and lots of business commentators 0:13:28.040 --> 0:13:31.160 have been going on about this for decades. Both sides 0:13:31.200 --> 0:13:33.520 and government are guilty of this. It's an easy way 0:13:33.520 --> 0:13:38.680 to generate more revenue without actually doing anything legislative to 0:13:38.800 --> 0:13:41.680 actually make it happen. It just happens by default. And 0:13:41.720 --> 0:13:44.840 Australian tax players have less money as a consequence. 0:13:44.640 --> 0:13:47.360 And we see that bracket creep also in land tax 0:13:47.400 --> 0:13:50.800 bills across the country with state governesses as well. 0:13:51.080 --> 0:13:53.199 Patrick Carly and thank you so much for your time tonight. 0:13:53.320 --> 0:13:55.360 Thanks very Joining me. 0:13:55.360 --> 0:13:58.800 Now is Sky News contributor Kosher Gator Kosher. There was 0:13:58.840 --> 0:14:01.880 a fascinating piece in The Economists in recent days and 0:14:02.440 --> 0:14:06.559 what it essentially reveals is that what politicians have claimed 0:14:06.600 --> 0:14:09.960 for so many years about immigration fueling economic growth and 0:14:10.080 --> 0:14:13.839 raising living standards, well that may not be the case. 0:14:13.880 --> 0:14:17.080 The results depend on the type of immigration. The well 0:14:17.240 --> 0:14:21.720 educated immigrant, on average contributes more than they take, but 0:14:21.800 --> 0:14:26.640 low skilled immigrants are often a net drag on public finances, 0:14:27.320 --> 0:14:30.400 that is, they cost the tax. 0:14:30.120 --> 0:14:34.000 Payer more than they contribute. Kosha, I'm reminded of a. 0:14:35.840 --> 0:14:40.160 Often quoted comment from a famous economist, professor of economics, 0:14:40.200 --> 0:14:44.920 George Borges, who said immigration redistributes wealth from those who 0:14:44.960 --> 0:14:48.760 compete with immigrants to those who use immigrants, from the 0:14:48.840 --> 0:14:53.880 employee to the employer. And that's I think a big 0:14:53.920 --> 0:14:58.400 reason why we're seeing this massive political realignment in the West, 0:14:58.440 --> 0:15:02.640 where working class people, aspirational people have kind of realized 0:15:02.680 --> 0:15:06.240 the policies of the left don't actually work in their favor, 0:15:06.320 --> 0:15:09.400 and they've switched their vote to the right, and we're 0:15:09.440 --> 0:15:12.760 seeing people who have very affluents which they vote to 0:15:12.840 --> 0:15:16.080 the left as well. It's just a fascinating time. 0:15:15.880 --> 0:15:18.440 One hundred percent, because the latter group loves their nannies 0:15:18.480 --> 0:15:20.960 and their gardeners and all the trappings that come with 0:15:21.040 --> 0:15:23.360 that at the expense of the working class, who in 0:15:23.400 --> 0:15:25.640 many ways is cut out of the conversation and trip point. 0:15:25.640 --> 0:15:29.480 That's why populism is ascendant, because it's giving them a 0:15:29.520 --> 0:15:31.640 seed back at the table. The first thing that I 0:15:31.680 --> 0:15:34.360 found interesting about that piece actually is that the economy 0:15:34.360 --> 0:15:37.320 has even decided to rate that story on the heels 0:15:37.320 --> 0:15:40.320 of the New York Times yesterday writing about COVID origins 0:15:40.320 --> 0:15:42.320 and all of that. So something is happening with mainstream 0:15:42.360 --> 0:15:45.520 media that they're acknowledging what everybody else has seen a. 0:15:45.480 --> 0:15:46.440 Few years too later. 0:15:46.480 --> 0:15:48.600 I would have to say, it would have very last 0:15:48.720 --> 0:15:50.440 to see the New York Times do that when it 0:15:50.520 --> 0:15:54.880 actually mattered, yes, instead of very easy calling everyone conspiracy 0:15:54.920 --> 0:15:57.440 theorists for even suggesting that could be a. 0:15:57.360 --> 0:15:59.760 Possible and even now there was no apology or anything 0:15:59.800 --> 0:16:01.800 like that. But that is interesting that the economist is 0:16:01.840 --> 0:16:05.240 doing this. The crux of the economic argument, as you say, 0:16:05.360 --> 0:16:08.000 is that ultimately, at its core, if you've got a 0:16:08.120 --> 0:16:11.320 very generous immigration policy and a very generous welfare state, 0:16:11.960 --> 0:16:14.600 it's a recipe for disaster. And there's precedence for this. 0:16:14.640 --> 0:16:17.200 So in the US from eighteen fifty to nineteen twelve 0:16:17.320 --> 0:16:19.920 was the biggest era of migration from Europe, and something 0:16:19.960 --> 0:16:22.120 like thirty percent of people went back to Europe because 0:16:22.120 --> 0:16:24.480 they couldn't make it and there was no welfare state 0:16:24.520 --> 0:16:27.360 to fall back on, Whereas now that creates a perverse 0:16:27.400 --> 0:16:30.400 incentive for people the are net takers rather than producers 0:16:30.440 --> 0:16:32.080 to come in. So that's kind of the crux of 0:16:32.120 --> 0:16:33.920 what's in this piece. The last thing I would say 0:16:33.920 --> 0:16:36.160 that it didn't get into is the cultural cost of 0:16:36.200 --> 0:16:39.400 immigration outside of economics, and that's another thing that's sort 0:16:39.400 --> 0:16:41.280 of been the third rail. You can't talk about it 0:16:41.400 --> 0:16:44.280 or you know, diversity is always our strength in every circumstance, 0:16:44.480 --> 0:16:47.119 and that's another thing that I think is now unraveling 0:16:47.120 --> 0:16:49.160 a little bit, where people are seeing, actually, it's really 0:16:49.200 --> 0:16:52.200 difficult to run a harmonious society with just different groups 0:16:52.200 --> 0:16:55.600 of people with very different cultural backgrounds, all trying to coexist. 0:16:56.640 --> 0:17:00.760 Now, let's talk about President Trump, earlier today affirmed that 0:17:00.800 --> 0:17:02.720 the Kennedy files will. 0:17:02.560 --> 0:17:05.840 Be released in full. Let's see from the president. 0:17:06.119 --> 0:17:08.280 I don't believe we're going to redact anything I said, 0:17:08.359 --> 0:17:09.120 just don't redact. 0:17:09.119 --> 0:17:10.320 You can't redact. 0:17:11.080 --> 0:17:12.000 But we're going to. 0:17:11.880 --> 0:17:17.160 Be releasing the JFK files and that would be tomorrow. 0:17:17.320 --> 0:17:17.720 Kasha. 0:17:17.800 --> 0:17:21.360 We're talking about some eighty thousand pages. 0:17:21.560 --> 0:17:25.439 But will we ever know the truth? Have they destroyed 0:17:25.520 --> 0:17:26.480 anything that would. 0:17:26.359 --> 0:17:30.280 Clarify who was involved in the assassination of the president, 0:17:30.359 --> 0:17:31.320 who was complicit? 0:17:32.040 --> 0:17:34.000 I think this time next week we'll have a little 0:17:34.119 --> 0:17:37.000 bit better of an answer to that question. People are 0:17:37.000 --> 0:17:40.280 cautiously optimistic, but very very skeptical because they've been burned 0:17:40.359 --> 0:17:42.960 before for decades. As President Trump said, and even in 0:17:43.000 --> 0:17:45.000 the first Trump term, he had alluded to that the 0:17:45.040 --> 0:17:47.600 first time around and then didn't, which added to the 0:17:47.640 --> 0:17:50.199 conspiracy thinking that you know, what was so bad that 0:17:50.200 --> 0:17:52.399 he couldn't release it, or what were the reasons? The 0:17:52.480 --> 0:17:54.520 key is releasing it, so he is following through. I 0:17:54.520 --> 0:17:57.520 think we can believe him on his word there not 0:17:57.680 --> 0:18:00.320 redacting it, because what's the point if it's released so much, 0:18:00.359 --> 0:18:02.040 but it is reducted. He did see there that it 0:18:02.080 --> 0:18:03.879 will not be reducted, so we'll see. And then the 0:18:03.920 --> 0:18:06.840 third is a cold words or is it our file 0:18:06.920 --> 0:18:07.440 is deleted? 0:18:07.520 --> 0:18:08.240 That we won't know. 0:18:08.720 --> 0:18:10.359 But in this day and age of social media, I 0:18:10.359 --> 0:18:12.960 think eighty thousand pages will very quickly get processed and 0:18:12.960 --> 0:18:15.159 summarized by all sorts of people and we will have. 0:18:15.160 --> 0:18:16.760 A better place. Well, this is another thing. 0:18:16.800 --> 0:18:20.280 What if they have not destroyed the key points, but 0:18:20.359 --> 0:18:23.560 they've buried it somewhere in those eighty thousand pages. That 0:18:23.720 --> 0:18:26.800 is a lot of documentation to go through with a 0:18:26.840 --> 0:18:31.480 fine tooth comb and find something that may reveal something 0:18:31.520 --> 0:18:32.000 we don't. 0:18:31.840 --> 0:18:33.840 Already know now. 0:18:34.080 --> 0:18:39.560 The President also today spoke about Hunter Biden's protective detail. 0:18:40.720 --> 0:18:43.960 He just learns in this exchange that Hunter Biden has 0:18:44.080 --> 0:18:47.880 eighteen secret Service agents protecting him in South Africa. Why 0:18:47.920 --> 0:18:50.000 is in South Africa in the first place is a 0:18:50.600 --> 0:18:52.240 question the prison would like answered. 0:18:52.560 --> 0:18:56.720 Sure, super service cheams to protected Hunter bid himself there. 0:18:58.320 --> 0:19:00.639 Paying for that perfectly secret services. 0:19:01.080 --> 0:19:03.920 Well, we have done that with many I would say, 0:19:03.960 --> 0:19:07.320 if they're eighteen with Hunter Biden, that will be something 0:19:07.359 --> 0:19:10.160 I look at this afternoon. Okay, sure, I just heard 0:19:10.200 --> 0:19:12.640 about it for the first time. So you have eighteen 0:19:12.760 --> 0:19:17.320 Secret Service going out? Where is he executive in South Africa? 0:19:17.680 --> 0:19:21.440 In South Africa and South Africa you know, is on 0:19:21.440 --> 0:19:24.600 a watch list? You know that because what they're doing 0:19:24.760 --> 0:19:28.119 to people is brutal. And I've stopped having money go 0:19:28.200 --> 0:19:31.960 to South Africa. You know that billions of dollars. So 0:19:32.040 --> 0:19:33.720 he's in South Africa. 0:19:33.920 --> 0:19:34.960 That's very interesting. 0:19:35.000 --> 0:19:36.359 All right, I'm going to take a look at that. 0:19:36.440 --> 0:19:37.159 Thank you, Berna. 0:19:37.640 --> 0:19:40.560 Well there goes the protective data eighteen. What is huntbot 0:19:40.720 --> 0:19:41.479 need eighteen? 0:19:41.520 --> 0:19:43.560 People? I know he gets up to some mischief, but 0:19:43.640 --> 0:19:44.760 that seems excessive. 0:19:45.359 --> 0:19:47.119 Oh boy, And it's funny when he learned it in 0:19:47.160 --> 0:19:48.720 real time along with the rest of us. 0:19:49.080 --> 0:19:49.800 So it's really interesting. 0:19:49.840 --> 0:19:52.080 I was looking into this in terms of the entitlements 0:19:52.080 --> 0:19:55.280 of Secret Service for former first families, it is governed 0:19:55.280 --> 0:19:58.800 by statute, but only for the former president, his orhear 0:19:58.800 --> 0:20:02.960 spouse and minor children, children hunters. What in is fifty 0:20:02.960 --> 0:20:05.840 and it's fifty So this is discretionary and it's up 0:20:05.840 --> 0:20:08.000 to ultimately the sitting president to revoke that. 0:20:08.280 --> 0:20:11.439 Now we also have to speak about this News report 0:20:11.520 --> 0:20:16.240 that the Trump administration is contemplating a new travel ban 0:20:16.960 --> 0:20:18.600 on more than forty countries. 0:20:18.640 --> 0:20:19.160 This time. 0:20:19.240 --> 0:20:29.160 They include countries like Afghanistan, Iran, Cuba, Bhutan, Libya, North Korea, Somalia, Syria, Sudan, Venezuela, Yemen. 0:20:29.320 --> 0:20:32.080 So they can't call this a Muslim ban again like 0:20:32.119 --> 0:20:34.520 they did last time. There's a number of countries there 0:20:34.520 --> 0:20:36.080 and plenty others that haven't named. 0:20:37.000 --> 0:20:40.680 Are we going to have another travel ban under this administration? Possibly? 0:20:40.760 --> 0:20:43.359 I mean it is one of many strategies in his 0:20:43.560 --> 0:20:46.879 or role policy around immigration and national security. And the 0:20:46.920 --> 0:20:49.639 premise here is that those some forty three countries have 0:20:49.840 --> 0:20:53.639 very dubious vetting policies of how they're their end of 0:20:53.680 --> 0:20:55.920 the bargain of what has to happen was a vetting 0:20:55.960 --> 0:20:57.840 people that are coming out of their country and coming 0:20:57.880 --> 0:21:01.040 into the US. Now, this was the original time that 0:21:01.040 --> 0:21:03.760 we saw judicial intervention in the first term with him, 0:21:03.800 --> 0:21:06.080 So I think the team is smarter now. They have 0:21:06.240 --> 0:21:09.040 the benefit of that hindsight, and they have a Supreme 0:21:09.040 --> 0:21:11.399 Court ruling in their favor because they did win and 0:21:11.440 --> 0:21:13.439 the Supreme Court upheld that in twenty eighteen. So I 0:21:13.440 --> 0:21:16.200 think they're on firmer ground. But we do know the 0:21:16.280 --> 0:21:18.440 judges that are going wild right now, So I would. 0:21:18.240 --> 0:21:19.600 See activist judges. 0:21:19.760 --> 0:21:22.359 I mean, you talk about a constitutional crisis, that's the 0:21:22.760 --> 0:21:25.959 that's the constitutional crisis. There's activist judges who think they 0:21:26.000 --> 0:21:33.520 can overrule the president, and it's astonishing they do get overturned. 0:21:33.600 --> 0:21:37.480 But for a period you've got some lowly judge who's 0:21:37.560 --> 0:21:40.000 determining the diagonal policy. 0:21:39.640 --> 0:21:42.320 Thirty one of them right now, active cases where they're 0:21:42.640 --> 0:21:45.320 a single judge somewhere is doing these niche and wide 0:21:45.359 --> 0:21:47.120 injunctions on matters of national security. 0:21:47.920 --> 0:21:51.600
