Speaker 1: On scoring leads Ostrodia. This is the Wider Panalty Show.
Speaker 2: Good evening and welcome to the Rita Panehy Show. Coming
Speaker 2: up tonight, the ourb News and government's green hydrogen dreams
Speaker 2: in DISARRAYUS costs blow up fourfold. The Panel will be
Speaker 2: here to discuss that shortly the leading child gender physician
Speaker 2: in the country cops heavy criticism in the family court.
Speaker 2: Stepanie Bastian will join me to cover that unfolding story.
Speaker 2: Kosher Gator will have the latest from the US, including
Speaker 2: the violent far left protests and the always roll Alex
Speaker 2: Stein will be here to celebrate Pride Months. You don't
Speaker 2: want to miss that, and Left is losing It is
Speaker 2: a little bit nausea inducing tonight. You've been warned.
Speaker 3: This woman has been a heroin a hero for me
Speaker 3: for so many years.
Speaker 4: I've been myra from.
Speaker 2: Macfarre But first joining me is the Panel News Corps
Speaker 2: Senior writer Patrick Carline and research fellow and director of
Speaker 2: the Institute of Public Affairs rul's program, Colleen Hearken. Let's
Speaker 2: start with the Prime Minister's speech today. He addressed the
Speaker 2: National Press Club in a speech that was filled with
Speaker 2: all sorts of motherhood statements. Here is what I'm talking about.
Speaker 5: Our vision is for a society that is a microcosm
Speaker 5: for the world, where all are respected and valued, and
Speaker 5: our diversity is recognized as a strength, where our international
Speaker 5: relationships in the fastest growing region of the world in
Speaker 5: human history benefited us, but also provide a platform for
Speaker 5: us to play a positive and stabilizing global role in
Speaker 5: uncertain times.
Speaker 2: Colleen, all very warm and fuzzy. Diversity is our strength,
Speaker 2: all the usual nonsense we've come to expect. Was there
Speaker 2: much substance, No.
Speaker 6: There was a lot of lofty motherhood statements. It was
Speaker 6: like reading a Hallmark gift card early. You know, real
Speaker 6: difference in people's lives, global vision and leadership. But the
Speaker 6: problem with this is that it's not ambition, it's actually
Speaker 6: negligence because the real difference so he can make in
Speaker 6: people's lives is the cost of living.
Speaker 2: And their energy bills.
Speaker 6: And you know, the economy is driven by the cost
Speaker 6: of a foundation is driven Sorry, the foundation of the
Speaker 6: economy is driven by the cost.
Speaker 2: Of our energy.
Speaker 6: And he really should be focusing on what's broken at home.
Speaker 6: You know, people are barely able to keep the lights on.
Speaker 6: It was a sort of you know, like being at
Speaker 6: an afternoon tea with the girls and a few glasses
Speaker 6: of champagne and not really concentrating on what people need
Speaker 6: him to do.
Speaker 7: Well.
Speaker 2: The Prime Minister's Patrick hoping to have some FaceTime with
Speaker 2: President Trump. How is he going to explain Australia's reluctance
Speaker 2: to increase defense spending So many of our allies have
Speaker 2: and we seem to be a little bit racalcitrant saying no,
Speaker 2: you're not going to tell us what to do.
Speaker 8: Well, there is one theory of thought that you will
Speaker 8: actually have that and then announce a rise in spending,
Speaker 8: which politically might be savvy if you like. Look, we've
Speaker 8: been like this country with the ostrich head in the
Speaker 8: sand for so long we're basically we're just denied talking
Speaker 8: about it or thinking about this fact that the world
Speaker 8: has changed. We have to be able to defend ourselves.
Speaker 8: And it's something that's become a separating soul over a
Speaker 8: long time that we're in this position where we don't
Speaker 8: spend any money on defense, we have no great plan
Speaker 8: for spending money on defense, and we're decades behind where
Speaker 8: we need to be in a quickly changing world.
Speaker 2: Colleen the plan appears to be America will save us
Speaker 2: if anything happens, and America is asking us to raise
Speaker 2: defense spending to three three and a half percent of
Speaker 2: GDP And if we're not willing to do that, can
Speaker 2: we have this expectation they're going to come and save
Speaker 2: the day.
Speaker 6: Well why would they if we're not going to be
Speaker 6: proper partners in this process, why would they come out
Speaker 6: and help save us?
Speaker 2: Absolutely, And just finally with the Prime Minister, he is
Speaker 2: in a blessed position. He's just one in a landslide.
Speaker 2: He's got the Greens in the Senate just he doesn't
Speaker 2: even need to deal with the crossbenches. But Patrick, the
Speaker 2: financial issues facing this country are real and a landslide
Speaker 2: doesn't change that.
Speaker 4: No, that's right.
Speaker 8: Look, energy bills is the obvious place to go on this.
Speaker 8: Energy bills are going up, cost of living is going up.
Speaker 8: These are things that Australands have been feeling since twenty
Speaker 8: twenty two, since Elbow was first elected. He's not really
Speaker 8: saying anything that's addressing those issues in a massive way,
Speaker 8: and I think that's why today's speech is so disappointing.
Speaker 8: He does have a mandate, really, he has the numbers
Speaker 8: in the House of Representatives, he can do things, and
Speaker 8: basically today's speech suggests that he doesn't really need to
Speaker 8: do much. He just wants to sort of dabble around
Speaker 8: the edges.
Speaker 1: Well.
Speaker 2: On energy policy, let's check in on how the Abanza
Speaker 2: government's Future Made in Australia plan is going and Intercontinential
Speaker 2: Intercontinental Energy, the co owner of two massive green hydrogen
Speaker 2: projects in Western Australia, has conceded initial costs for delivering
Speaker 2: green energy from these facilities is going to be between
Speaker 2: eight and eleven dollars a kilogram. Eventually, they hope that
Speaker 2: falls to about four do dollars a kilogram, But according
Speaker 2: to MSD market analysts, sol cabinic hydrogen prices need to
Speaker 2: be below two dollars a kilogram to become close to
Speaker 2: competitive with other energy sources. Eight to eleven dollars a
Speaker 2: kilogram equates to over sixty dollars a giga jewel, which
Speaker 2: no major energy user can afford. Meanwhile, the average cost
Speaker 2: of natural gas patrick in Australia is just under twelve
Speaker 2: dollars per giga jewel. This is again one of the
Speaker 2: prime ministers the Labor parties dreams about green hydrogen. We're
Speaker 2: going to become this renewable superpower, and the evidence so
Speaker 2: far is not there. Our prices are going up, and
Speaker 2: the more we invest in this sector, the more prices increase.
Speaker 8: Look, countries and energy companies all over the world have
Speaker 8: looked at green hydrogen. They've tried to make it work.
Speaker 8: It's simply not viable at the cost that it comes at.
Speaker 8: At the moment, the technology doesn't exist. And the fact
Speaker 8: that green hydrogen is a pillar of our energy future
Speaker 8: according to this government is hilarious and it's really sad
Speaker 8: because it doesn't exist yet. No, it's not on the table.
Speaker 8: It's not an alternative, and it can't be an alternative
Speaker 8: until the technology exists.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're obsessed with green hydrogen, Colleen, but we've got
Speaker 2: plenty of gas, coal, uranium, all very reliable sources of
Speaker 2: energy that were not properly using.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and this is just recklessness, reader, because it's four
Speaker 6: to five times the cost of the gas and they're
Speaker 6: wanting to call this a plan for the future. Can
Speaker 6: you imagine as CEO announcing to the shareholders that we're
Speaker 6: going to invest ten dollars and maybe in twenty years
Speaker 6: time we might get a return on investment. You know,
Speaker 6: it's not an investment, it's ideological indulgence.
Speaker 2: It is so ideological. This is they've just completely abandoned
Speaker 2: reality and ideology is ruling the day. Now to Channel
Speaker 2: ten's decision to act its flagship current affairs program, the
Speaker 2: Project that's been on air for sixteen years, our colleague
Speaker 2: Steve Price is defending the unwatchable lefty talk Fairsie has
Speaker 2: been the sole conservative voice, some would say token conservative
Speaker 2: voice on the program, and he writes in the Herald
Speaker 2: Sun that people dancing on the grave of tens the
Speaker 2: project are ignorant. It means that virtually all live television
Speaker 2: bar some AFL panel shows and some comedy programs and
Speaker 2: the six PM news are now run out of Sydney.
Speaker 2: Melbourne is the big loser today and the city will
Speaker 2: never get back what it had ever Again. Colleen, I
Speaker 2: don't think the whole Melbourne Sydney rivalry comes into this.
Speaker 2: That's not why people are mocking this program.
Speaker 6: Yeah, so I have to confess I've never actually watched
Speaker 6: Project for sixty Yeah, I've never actually watched it for
Speaker 6: the reasons that you just said. You know, it's a
Speaker 6: lobsided not balanced perspective of the day's news. But to
Speaker 6: Steve Price's comment about business leaving Melbourne, IPA research will
Speaker 6: tell you that there's one hundred and thirty thousand businesses
Speaker 6: have left Victoria in the last year. So it's not
Speaker 6: just something like the project. It's not just this sort
Speaker 6: of lack of reflective of what people want to see
Speaker 6: in here. There's an undercurrent of businesses leaving Melbourne regardless
Speaker 6: of the project.
Speaker 2: Wow, one hundred and thirty thousand. What is the predominant
Speaker 2: reason that's happening.
Speaker 6: Well, red tape, difficulty of doing business in Victoria, all
Speaker 6: of those sort of economic pressures.
Speaker 2: State taxes were correct at all. Patrick, I can't believe
Speaker 2: Colleen has not watched any project in sixteen years. Surely
Speaker 2: you've caught an episode here and there.
Speaker 8: Not for many years, I think, to be fair, it
Speaker 8: is aimed at the audience far younger than us.
Speaker 2: It was sort of sixteen years ago you were that young.
Speaker 8: That's true, okay, But it always seemed that there was
Speaker 8: always a hint of sanctimony in the messaging of it.
Speaker 2: Wasn't that That's what I did like, it was the
Speaker 2: mix of sanctimony arrogance mixed with stupidity. I mean, if
Speaker 2: you have the sanctimony without the stupidity, or the stupidity
Speaker 2: without the sanctimony, could work. But is it sad though
Speaker 2: for Melbourne that it's no longer here?
Speaker 8: Look, I think Price you made a better point when
Speaker 8: he talked about panel shows being balanced. You don't see
Speaker 8: that on the ABC as a starting point. I mean,
Speaker 8: I always grow up to think that good TV was
Speaker 8: sort of disagreement and conflict and passionate opinions and heavy
Speaker 8: debating if you like, And you don't see a lot
Speaker 8: of that anymore. The middle has been lost on TV.
Speaker 2: But I I think the panel provided that. It really didn't.
Speaker 2: But I mean it is commercial TV. They're not obliged
Speaker 2: to have that balance. They don't have the charter like
Speaker 2: the ABC do. And here the ABC never live up
Speaker 2: to that. Now this is only in Victoria story another
Speaker 2: disappointment for the Victorian taxpayer. The Labor government here have
Speaker 2: spent two hundred and fifty million dollars on a high
Speaker 2: speed express busway from Doncaster to Melbourne that was supposed
Speaker 2: to be high speed as the name suggests, cut down
Speaker 2: travel times. But despite those promises from Premier Allen. It
Speaker 2: seems like this bus trip could take even longer, Colleen,
Speaker 2: because instead of one hundred kilometer speed limits, we might
Speaker 2: be down to as low as sixty in sections. So
Speaker 2: we've spent two hundred and fifty million dollars to have
Speaker 2: a longer bus trip to the city from Doncasters.
Speaker 6: It's like, well, it's like a Monty Python episode, isn't
Speaker 6: it It is. It's ridiculous, And apparently, of course there's
Speaker 6: issues with the trains as well.
Speaker 2: There's always issues with the trade.
Speaker 6: That the new trains don't actually fit on the gauge
Speaker 6: of the new infrastructure that's been built. So it's just
Speaker 6: a crazy situation and like an extreme waste of taxpace
Speaker 6: money not doing the planning that's required.
Speaker 2: Patrick the committee. Comedic value aside, this is a pretty
Speaker 2: massive stuff up, two hundred and fifty million dollars and
Speaker 2: very questionable value.
Speaker 8: It's not funny anymore. I mean, the Northeast links a
Speaker 8: little funny. The budgets are blown out. I drive through
Speaker 8: there going to and from home from time to time.
Speaker 8: It's just like a bomb site. It's been like that
Speaker 8: for years. And the idea that all that all that
Speaker 8: waiting in traffic jams is going to amount to something
Speaker 8: that's not even as good as what it was before.
Speaker 8: In this context is so galling. No, it's not funny anymore.
Speaker 2: It's a little bit funny, but you're not for the taxpayers.
Speaker 2: I've got to admit it before you go. The United
Speaker 2: Youth Bradge has made some unbelievable claims saying that Queenslanders
Speaker 2: young Queenslanders can't have a night out or see their
Speaker 2: friends because they're terrified they're being targeted by their government's
Speaker 2: adult crime at Old Time youth crime crackdown. I think
Speaker 2: you're only targeted if you're breaking the law. The UN's
Speaker 2: got no idea. They've tried to dictate to the Queensland
Speaker 2: government what to do. Premier Kristap fully had no time
Speaker 2: for that, and they're continuing on with their campaign.
Speaker 6: Right behind Christophully on this one. People have a right
Speaker 6: to feel safe when they go out, and I don't
Speaker 6: know what these people think that they do that they
Speaker 6: go out, that they can't just go out and have
Speaker 6: a good time unless.
Speaker 1: They break the law.
Speaker 6: I mean, it's an absurd sort of proposition to say
Speaker 6: that they're being targeted, you know, and Victoria is having
Speaker 6: a similar scenario about youth crime, and I know that
Speaker 6: the Coalition are talking about break what does it breach?
Speaker 6: Bail do jail time. It's the same scenario. I think
Speaker 6: people have fed up with not being able to live
Speaker 6: their civil life in a comfortable, expected way to be safe.
Speaker 2: Patrick, you've got teenage children. Are they scared to be
Speaker 2: out and about in Queensland if you're out there for
Speaker 2: a holiday.
Speaker 8: Look, I'm pretty sure this didn't resonate anywhere, but especially
Speaker 8: as Colin was saying, in Victoria. I mean the premier
Speaker 8: up there in Queensland has talked about adult crime, adult time.
Speaker 8: Wouldn't we love to have that down here?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 8: Yes, But I do invite the author of that report
Speaker 8: to come down and go shopping in Victoria and perhaps
Speaker 8: we'll have some machette wielding years running past.
Speaker 2: And it'll be very enriching for them, I'm sure, Patrick,
Speaker 2: Carli and Colleen Harkin thank you so much for your
Speaker 2: time tonight. Now, as reported by The Australian newspaper, Australia's
Speaker 2: foremost gender medicine expert and the lead author of the
Speaker 2: nation's guidelines on so called gender firming care Michelle Telfer
Speaker 2: was heavily criticized by family called Judge Andrew Strom for
Speaker 2: giving misleading evidence in support of a mother who wanted
Speaker 2: her child to be prescribed puberty blockers. Now this judgment
Speaker 2: has again called into question the integrity treatment of gender
Speaker 2: confused kids. Judge Andrew Strum in this case strip the
Speaker 2: mother of custody and effectively block the twelve year old
Speaker 2: from accessing these sort of gender treatments, but also criticize
Speaker 2: the Royal Children's Hospital here in Melbourne and its gender clinic.
Speaker 2: The Australian also reports that Justice Strum question the Australian
Speaker 2: Standards of Care and Treatment Guidelines for trans and gender
Speaker 2: diverse Children and Adolescents authored by Professor Telfer for not
Speaker 2: recognizing children may not be capable of making life altering
Speaker 2: medical decisions about their gender identity. Is said, it is
Speaker 2: concerning that an oddly binary approach is adopted in relation
Speaker 2: to children, especially of the age of the child the
Speaker 2: subject of these proceedings. That is, to affirm unreservedly those
Speaker 2: who present with concerns regarding their gender, brooking no questioning thereof.
Speaker 2: He wrote in the judgment, the case of the mother
Speaker 2: is is that because the child says so, the child
Speaker 2: is and must unquestionably be affirmed as being female in
Speaker 2: gender identity. However, that overlooks the obvious, namely that the
Speaker 2: child is still a child, and not even if it
Speaker 2: matters a teenager. Joining me now is Women's Forum Australia's
Speaker 2: head of Advocacies, Stephanie Bastian and steph everything I read there,
Speaker 2: the comments from the judge just seem like pure common sense.
Speaker 2: But it's common sense we have not heard in the
Speaker 2: family court on these sort of issues. How significant is
Speaker 2: this case?
Speaker 9: This is the most significant development so far. Michelle Telfer
Speaker 9: is the head of medicine at the Royal Children's Hospital.
Speaker 9: She's also, as you mentioned, the author of the so
Speaker 9: called standards of care, and the judge has delivered a
Speaker 9: damning appraisal of her standards of care and the treatments.
Speaker 9: It's very clear that these treatments are not evidence based,
Speaker 9: they are based on ideology. Children can't consent to these treatments.
Speaker 9: The side effects, which include things like infertility, cancer, damage
Speaker 9: to bone structure are horrendous. They cannot consent, and quite
Speaker 9: often also children who are struggling with gender dysphoria also
Speaker 9: struggle with other chomorbid mental health issues, including anxiety, depression
Speaker 9: and autism, and arguably adults young adults with these mental
Speaker 9: health issues also can't consent, which we will see. There's
Speaker 9: a case being run in the Supreme Court in Victoria
Speaker 9: with mel Jeffries. Will know where that sits in due time.
Speaker 9: But the fact of the matter is you're dealing with
Speaker 9: bunderable people who cannot consent and the treatments that they
Speaker 9: are being prescribed lack the evidence, which we know this
Speaker 9: should be enough for Health Minister Mark Butler and Prime
Speaker 9: Minister Anthony Alberesi to intervene immediately to halt these treatments
Speaker 9: and to hold a national review rather than the soft
Speaker 9: approach that they're taking at the moment.
Speaker 2: Well, if it wasn't for this case and this course
Speaker 2: of action being challenged in the courts, that twelve year
Speaker 2: old child would be on puberty blockers right now, and again,
Speaker 2: how can a twelve year old consent to that when
Speaker 2: the consequences can be quite serious, and when we know
Speaker 2: of so many cases where these gender treatments have had
Speaker 2: all sorts of medical consequences that the child will just
Speaker 2: have no understanding of at that age. Now nine newspapers
Speaker 2: columnist Peter Fitzsimon's The Pirate has declared shame on those
Speaker 2: who whip up hate against trans athletes for clicks and votes.
Speaker 2: This is an article he wrote recently where he said
Speaker 2: the nastiest and most ruthless purveyors of hate bait continually
Speaker 2: push out a catastrophically cliched warning that the sports world
Speaker 2: is a wash, with swarthy truck drivers wearing tutus and
Speaker 2: time's storming and swarming their way through girls' changing rooms
Speaker 2: and fields to lear and sneer their way to every
Speaker 2: trophy going. The truth of the matter that we are
Speaker 2: talking about mostly just a handful of gentle souls with
Speaker 2: the extraordinary courage to live as what they believe is
Speaker 2: their true gender and want to be included in sport.
Speaker 2: Doesn't rate as hate bait, So forget it. Your job
Speaker 2: is to whip it up. That's quite an amusing, unintentionally
Speaker 2: amusing little die tribe their Stephanie. But I think the
Speaker 2: Pirate is not happy with you or me, it seems.
Speaker 9: Look, I just hope female athletes aren't paying attention to
Speaker 9: this latest dribble from Pirate Pete but it just shows
Speaker 9: how out of touch he is. He is a man
Speaker 9: telling women who are talking about their sex base rights
Speaker 9: that they should be quiet to protect the feelings of
Speaker 9: these so called trans athletes. A young woman from Victoria
Speaker 9: called into Ben Bordham's show this week and she talked
Speaker 9: about her experience of being confronted with a transathlete and
Speaker 9: I want to share it because I think it's very relevant.
Speaker 9: But she is five foot to four. He was six
Speaker 9: point six foot two, and she talked about being confronted
Speaker 9: with him in the change room and her fear of
Speaker 9: being crushed into the pavement in the event of an accident,
Speaker 9: and she talked about the fact that the violation that
Speaker 9: she felt when his body brushed against hers to block
Speaker 9: her from shooting a goal. She is representative of many
Speaker 9: girls around this country and Pirate Pete has no concern
Speaker 9: or consideration for what these girls are going through. And
Speaker 9: it is absolutely ridiculous that he is so out of
Speaker 9: touch that he would mock these women and the very
Speaker 9: real plight that they are fighting but also fighting to
Speaker 9: be able to speak in public about.
Speaker 2: Well, this is I think what the consequence of this
Speaker 2: article is those of us who have been reporting on this,
Speaker 2: and I've been writing about it for a decade before
Speaker 2: he was a big issue. I'm not going to be silenced,
Speaker 2: but I do worry whether young girls, women who are
Speaker 2: competing in sports where there are men present, men who
Speaker 2: identify as women present, whether they're going to be discouraged
Speaker 2: from speaking because they're being called nasty and spreading hate
Speaker 2: bait and what are the other hyperbolic language the pirate
Speaker 2: used there? And that's really the effect of this activism
Speaker 2: from the left is to silence women who are being
Speaker 2: impacted by these men.
Speaker 9: Absolutely, and I think I'm fearful that that is the
Speaker 9: intent from Pete's article. He is trying to continue that
Speaker 9: culture of silencing people who oppose this ideology, and he
Speaker 9: will do it at all costs, with no regard to
Speaker 9: the women and girls that he is impacting.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, Stephanie Bastian, thanks for your time. Still to come.
Speaker 2: Left is Losing at plus the latest from the US,
Speaker 2: including the violent fi Left protests in La Kosher Gator
Speaker 2: as the details. You're watching the Reader Patty Show, and
Speaker 2: it's time for Lefties Losing it, and we will get
Speaker 2: back to the demented Left's latest round of riots shortly,
Speaker 2: but first the Tony Awards were on overnight. You didn't
Speaker 2: know if near the did I until this dude caught
Speaker 2: my eye on the red carpet. Stunning and brave. That's
Speaker 2: Cole Escola, who beat out the likes of George Clooney
Speaker 2: and John Michael Hill to win the Tony for Best
Speaker 2: Leading Actor. And the media were of course keen to
Speaker 2: trumpet the fact that he was the first openly non
Speaker 2: by artists to win Leading Actor. Yes, a groundbreaking night,
Speaker 2: and the publications were also keen to mangle the English
Speaker 2: language to respect a scholars. They them pronouns. USA Today
Speaker 2: reported they are now the first non binary performer to
Speaker 2: win in that Tony category. I mean they are they
Speaker 2: multiple people. It was a piece just rendered nonsensical with
Speaker 2: deliberate grammar crimes. And let's not forget the non binary
Speaker 2: dude here says he prefers they then pronouns, but was
Speaker 2: nevertheless very happy to be nominated and win the very
Speaker 2: gendered Best Leading Actor award.
Speaker 10: All the scholer if you want to thank the other nominees,
Speaker 10: George and John and Harry and Daniel and Louis. It's
Speaker 10: an honor to be in your company, the most important
Speaker 10: people in my life, my friends who are here tonight,
Speaker 10: Jeffrey jen Ben, everyone watching at home, Christian Dakota, the
Speaker 10: whole Gang, John Claudia Oh and Tibo from Grinder.
Speaker 2: Can't forget Tbo from Grind. I here's fun na less
Speaker 2: one is this duo the Queens of Performative Caring, as
Speaker 2: Douglas Murray would call them, And gosh, don't they love
Speaker 2: each other? Or at least they pretend to get your
Speaker 2: buckets ready? This is nausea inducing.
Speaker 3: This woman has been a heroine, a hero for me
Speaker 3: for so many years I've admired from Afar, and this
Speaker 3: is the first time I've had the opportunity to sit
Speaker 3: down and have a conversation because she's written a book
Speaker 3: called A Different Kind of Power, And I love that
Speaker 3: you call it that because the different kind of power
Speaker 3: is kindness.
Speaker 1: Absolutely.
Speaker 11: It's all those things that you think are weaknesses or
Speaker 11: a taught are weaknesses. Empathy, sensitivity, self doubt and humility.
Speaker 4: That's powerful.
Speaker 3: What I admire is that you're a Prime Minister and
Speaker 3: you made a decision that I am going to have
Speaker 3: kindness as a principle from my administration.
Speaker 2: Told you it was gross, but we'll get through it together.
Speaker 2: It's okay. What did zindata and say? This is all
Speaker 2: about kindness? Empathy, sensitivity, self doubt, and humility are just
Speaker 2: like this.
Speaker 11: Breaking the rules could kill someone close to you to
Speaker 11: maintain compliance, and there will be spot check's implants for
Speaker 11: anyone who is not vaccinated right now. Unless you choose
Speaker 11: to be, you will not be able to enjoy the
Speaker 11: freedoms of other New Zealanders if you don't comply with
Speaker 11: the rules, who run the risk of forcing us to
Speaker 11: extend the period of lockdown. For that information, do feel
Speaker 11: free to visit at any time to clarify any roamor
Speaker 11: you may hear COVID nineteen dot govt dot NZ. Otherwise
Speaker 11: dismiss anything else. We will continue to be your single
Speaker 11: source of.
Speaker 2: Truth, single source of truth. Just in this truth not
Speaker 2: the truth truth. Yes, the former Prime min through New Zealand,
Speaker 2: who impose some of the most illiberal, inhumane lockdowns anywhere
Speaker 2: in the world. She even banned pregnant New Zealand women
Speaker 2: from returning home, even from a war zone. This poor
Speaker 2: lass had to seek help from the Taliban because Jaisinda
Speaker 2: Adurn was too busy playing the media's favorite leftist darling
Speaker 2: to take care of her own citizens. She's the leader
Speaker 2: who preaches about love, tolerance and kindness, but oversaw the
Speaker 2: rise of huge societal problems in New Zealand, from homelessness
Speaker 2: to race relations. Remember when she promised shelter for every
Speaker 2: homeless New Zealander. But because she's an inept clown and
Speaker 2: not really interested in exercising kindness or sound policy, the
Speaker 2: problem exploded under her watch. Just a couple of years
Speaker 2: after that promise. Well, there were record numbers waiting for
Speaker 2: public housing record and that was before COVID hit Well done,
Speaker 2: Jacinda a hero? Oprah called her, no, not a hero,
Speaker 2: a terrible leader who made life harder for ordinary New Zealanders.
Speaker 2: And you quit before that could boot out. But here
Speaker 2: she is with Oprah rewriting history.
Speaker 3: Did you have a kindness gathering of faminess?
Speaker 12: Do you know?
Speaker 11: We'd spend a lot of time looking at what was
Speaker 11: happening in New Zealand. And it's not just about what
Speaker 11: you do when you're in government, it's.
Speaker 1: About the way you do it.
Speaker 11: And I felt we've lost their humanity and we were
Speaker 11: there to serve people and kindness was a really simple
Speaker 11: way to embody there. So no, we definitely didn't. We
Speaker 11: didn't do a huddle, we didn't workshop it.
Speaker 10: It was instinctive.
Speaker 11: But I think it was what we needed at the time,
Speaker 11: and I think it's what the world needs right now
Speaker 11: as well.
Speaker 2: I do too, a different kind of power. I need
Speaker 2: that bucket now to La where the mostly peaceful protests continue.
Speaker 2: And as you saw there, they continue. You to fly
Speaker 2: the Mexican flag. They loot, burn and write and keep
Speaker 2: waving that flag. And they're still burning the American flag.
Speaker 2: They're not only burning the American flag, but they are
Speaker 2: spitting on it. Just vile, vile, anti American crims, destructive creams.
Speaker 2: And if you want to know why the National Guard
Speaker 2: was called in, well it may have something to do
Speaker 2: with cops being attacked like this.
Speaker 10: Oh my god, you got.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that looks like attempted murder. But the mayor, Karen Bass,
Speaker 2: is more concerned with ice. She wants immigration officials to
Speaker 2: stop doing their job administration.
Speaker 8: And if you can speak to MO when.
Speaker 13: I would say stop the reids, stop the reeds, period,
Speaker 13: I would say, give the power back to our governor,
Speaker 13: and if we need the National Guard, we can do
Speaker 13: it in the numerous circumstances, which is the request is
Speaker 13: made local and the governor decides or not to grant
Speaker 13: that to our city.
Speaker 2: And it's not just the mayor. Democrats across the US
Speaker 2: are disgracing themselves by standing with the lawless thugs rather
Speaker 2: than the rule of law. His Democrat Congresswoman Promila Jayapa.
Speaker 14: Donald Trump calling out the National Guard unconstitutionally, illegally without
Speaker 14: the governor's authorize approval. As Heimi said, that's something that
Speaker 14: has not happened since nineteen sixty five, and it's hard
Speaker 14: to imagine that this time the National Guard were sent
Speaker 14: out to attack protesters that were exercising their constitutional obligation.
Speaker 2: Constitutional obligation. Yes, she said that these people are nuts
Speaker 2: and they are determined to lose. This issue is a
Speaker 2: loser for the Democrats every day of the weeken twice
Speaker 2: on Sundays. But Congresswoman Jaya Powell wants to see more
Speaker 2: of this craziness. It's apparently good for the country.
Speaker 15: It is actually in the interest of all American people
Speaker 15: to stand up for these rates.
Speaker 10: They know they know that dividing us is what will.
Speaker 4: Make them strong.
Speaker 2: She's as mad as a cut snake, and so is
Speaker 2: this dude, Senator Chris Murphy.
Speaker 16: Obviously, this is a moment where we have to be
Speaker 16: on the streets all over the country to protest what's
Speaker 16: happening to our immigrant community, but more broadly, to protest
Speaker 16: what's happening to our democracy. This is the most corrupt
Speaker 16: administration in the history of the country, and we are
Speaker 16: going to rise to this moment by being out there
Speaker 16: on the streets. But you know, ultimately, I think the
Speaker 16: country sees what Donald Trump is trying to do here.
Speaker 16: He's looking for a fight. There's nothing in what he
Speaker 16: is doing that is about peace or about restoring order.
Speaker 2: Donald Trump started the fight. Was he the one who
Speaker 2: told these thugs to attack police, burn cars, loot stores
Speaker 2: right across LA And Trump's called in the National Guard
Speaker 2: not to restore order, but to continue the fight. Genius
Speaker 2: work there from the Democrat on MSNBC. Why don't you
Speaker 2: try saying that to LAPD chief Jim McDonald, who fears
Speaker 2: cops will lose their lives in this violence.
Speaker 17: This violence that I've seen is disgusting. It's escalated now
Speaker 17: since the beginning of this incident. What we saw the
Speaker 17: first night was bad we've seen subsequent to that is
Speaker 17: getting increasingly worse and more violent. Tonight, we had individuals
Speaker 17: out there shooting commercial grade fireworks at our offsters that
Speaker 17: can kill you. And we have adapted our tactics to
Speaker 17: be able to have a chance, to be able to
Speaker 17: take these people into custody and to be able to
Speaker 17: hold them accountable.
Speaker 2: Let's bring in Scott News contributor Kosher, Geeta Kosher. The
Speaker 2: Democrats are playing with fire here. Excuse the pod, but
Speaker 2: this is just dangerous territory for them.
Speaker 1: It really is.
Speaker 18: The shift in public support for getting illegal immigrants out,
Speaker 18: and especially criminal illegal immigrants, which is where the administration's
Speaker 18: focus is and where those initial people in LA were apprehended,
Speaker 18: has been unlike anything I've seen in terms of just
Speaker 18: even eight ten years ago, the public support was not there,
Speaker 18: and how it is completely shifted by double digits in
Speaker 18: the column of get these people out, because you don't
Speaker 18: have a country if you just allow ramp into illegal immigration,
Speaker 18: criminal or otherwise. So it is losing the only thing
Speaker 18: I can think of is Chris Murphy, Senator from Connecticut promilogae.
Speaker 1: Apart from the state of Washington, these are very.
Speaker 18: Blue sapphire blue states, and maybe they still believe that
Speaker 18: their constituency over their response to these comments, like you know,
Speaker 18: I'm here to defend democracy and role in this together,
Speaker 18: and that's why they're doing that. But when you look
Speaker 18: at just the global or the national picture, it doesn't
Speaker 18: make sense.
Speaker 1: And I think they're going to pay a price.
Speaker 2: I think they are. And what you said is one
Speaker 2: hundred percent accurate. The polls show that Donald Trump is
Speaker 2: on a solid ground when it comes to his immigration
Speaker 2: policy and the deportation plan as well. Let's check in
Speaker 2: with CNN for the latest data. This must have.
Speaker 12: Hurt, you know, if we just take a look at
Speaker 12: the baseline numbers here. This is Trump's net approval rating
Speaker 12: on immigration. It's gone up like a rocket compare now
Speaker 12: versus eight years ago during Trump's first term. It is
Speaker 12: his top issue so far. And the reason it is
Speaker 12: his top issue is because take a look at the
Speaker 12: individual nuggets in here. Why are people approving of Trump
Speaker 12: on immigration, approve of these different immigrans actions well, Trump's
Speaker 12: administration's program to deport those here illegally. Look at this
Speaker 12: fifty four percent approval. How about agents searching your hometown
Speaker 12: for those that they think are here illegally again, positive
Speaker 12: territory here above fifty percent for Donald Trump. So it's
Speaker 12: not just on the broad issue of immigration where Trump
Speaker 12: is doing well. It's on the specifics. When you dive
Speaker 12: into the issues, Trump is above fifty percent and his
Speaker 12: actions are above fifty percent.
Speaker 2: Now, what is really interesting is that this is an
Speaker 2: issue that Democrats used to win on. No more, and
Speaker 2: it seems that Dems are slow learners.
Speaker 12: The Democrats don't have a clue on the issue of immigration.
Speaker 12: I mean, you could just take it here closer to
Speaker 12: trust more and immigration. Democrats versus Republicans. Got three different
Speaker 12: polls for you across the board. They all tell the
Speaker 12: same story. Republicans lead on the issue of immigration. You
Speaker 12: see it here, CBS plus six, you see it here,
Speaker 12: CNN plus six, you see it here, IPSOS even bigger
Speaker 12: plus nineteen. No matter what poll you look at, no
Speaker 12: matter what which way you cut it, the American public
Speaker 12: is with the Republicans. The American public is with Donald Trump,
Speaker 12: and to a much greater extent than they were in
Speaker 12: term number one. And it's not just on the broad
Speaker 12: issue of immigration. It's on the specifics as well, in
Speaker 12: which the American public is with Donald Trump and the Republicans,
Speaker 12: and that is why Donald Trump is eager to take
Speaker 12: on this fight.
Speaker 2: The data there is pretty clear. It's pretty devastating for
Speaker 2: the Democrats and this despite the media coverage, and the
Speaker 2: media coverage we're getting in this country is being quite
Speaker 2: appalling and misleading. But that's the state of play. Could
Speaker 2: these protests extend to other parts of the country. Could
Speaker 2: we be looking at BLM two point zero?
Speaker 18: You know, that's the question everybody's asking, And sadly, rightly
Speaker 18: or wrongly, a lot of people wonder whether these are
Speaker 18: one hundred percent organic where there are agitators in the mix,
Speaker 18: given they're losing on the issue politically, and I'm sure
Speaker 18: it's hurting the media. Although I think Harry Enton is
Speaker 18: a secret Trump supporter, and those polling segments have become us.
Speaker 2: He knows to create the numbers. The numbers are the numbers.
Speaker 1: And he's very honest.
Speaker 18: He's always a little bit too excited when he reports them,
Speaker 18: and that is showing you that it just doesn't make
Speaker 18: sense if everybody is approving even of the tactics that
Speaker 18: go into my communities go into the home. Deepert go
Speaker 18: into the schools, find them and get them out.
Speaker 1: Those were the numbers you're showing.
Speaker 18: It doesn't jive why there are so many protests unless
Speaker 18: it just is a function of the number of illegal
Speaker 18: immigrants in the country, and there are many of them,
Speaker 18: and if they band together and start to create mayhem,
Speaker 18: then maybe that was inevitable.
Speaker 2: Well, California's response, other than ignoring the violence and generally
Speaker 2: not even protecting law enforcement from these lawless thugs, they
Speaker 2: now want to and I think they have started suing
Speaker 2: the Trump administration. Has that going to work out? I mean,
Speaker 2: the judges in that state, we know how they lead.
Speaker 2: But really, is this going to end in anything other
Speaker 2: than just a waste of everybody's time.
Speaker 18: Definitely a waste of time. That is their favorite tactic,
Speaker 18: using the judicial system to their advantage. If they do
Speaker 18: get something favorable on their side of the column, it's
Speaker 18: going to go up to the Supreme Court. That's a
Speaker 18: little bit tenuous and it's not a healthy system. If
Speaker 18: fundamental questions, is the commander in chief, the head of
Speaker 18: the executive branch, allowed to expel non citizens who are
Speaker 18: in the country legally, and if that is even going
Speaker 18: to be tested yeah, and hanging in the balance of
Speaker 18: four or five people in rules just to find that
Speaker 18: we have problems. But I do think ultimately the Supreme
Speaker 18: Court will rule favorably for this. This is within his
Speaker 18: purview as the chief executive of the country and hopefully
Speaker 18: you'll have success with it.
Speaker 2: Well, we can't have this situation continue. You keep hearing
Speaker 2: talk about a constitutional crisis. This is the constitutional crisis.
Speaker 2: The court's being used to usurpt the power of the
Speaker 2: commander in cheap and the will of the people. We
Speaker 2: had an election, it was a landslide result. The president
Speaker 2: has a man date and he's not being allowed to
Speaker 2: deliver on that man date. And the Democrats have got
Speaker 2: to be careful with these tactics because it can come
Speaker 2: back to them the other way as well.
Speaker 18: Definitely, and this side is learning how to play by
Speaker 18: those rules. I think for so long they didn't. And
Speaker 18: so the Left is very effective at these strategies. But
Speaker 18: Trump and his successors, whether is JD. Vans or whoever,
Speaker 18: are going to use that same playbook on them.
Speaker 2: Absolutely. Now, Donald Trump had a bit of fun today.
Speaker 2: He had a diagnosis and some advice for Greta Thunberg,
Speaker 2: who is accusing Israel of kidnapping her.
Speaker 7: She's a strange person. She's a young, angry person. I
Speaker 7: don't know if it's real anger. It's hard to believe, actually,
Speaker 7: but I saw what happened. She's certainly different anger management.
Speaker 7: I think she has to go to an anger management class.
Speaker 7: That's my primary recommendation for her.
Speaker 1: As she says, well she can, I can.
Speaker 7: I find it. I think Israel has enough problems without
Speaker 7: kidnapping Greta Thunberg. And secondly, are you guys to know
Speaker 7: what she said she was kidnapped by Israel?
Speaker 2: Yes, sir, she needs anger management classes kosher and he
Speaker 2: questions whether that anger is genuine. But if it is genuine,
Speaker 2: he wants her to get some help.
Speaker 18: That was Trump and it's comedic timing and it's finance.
Speaker 18: I feel like we're back in the Apprentice, But in
Speaker 18: real life she is not a sympathetic figure. I think
Speaker 18: she's suffering from relevance deprivation syndrome, where her climate mandate
Speaker 18: has fizzled and she's trying to inject herself into whatever
Speaker 18: the issues of the day are. Sailing into Gaza, being
Speaker 18: intercepted and then claiming she was kidnapped by Israel, and
Speaker 18: I think she's petitioning her country, the Swedish government to intervene,
Speaker 18: even though I think they're sending her back.
Speaker 2: But they're sending it back. They're not even faulting hers.
Speaker 2: I don't know what this intervention is going totally.
Speaker 18: She sounds like somebody desperate for attention and fame, and
Speaker 18: mebe anger management.
Speaker 2: As the President said, now, let's talk a little about Columbia.
Speaker 2: The leading Conservative candidate for president, thirty nine year old
Speaker 2: Senator Migail Urubay Turba, was shot three times, including twice
Speaker 2: in the head, while he was addressed supporters at the weekend.
Speaker 2: Here's how it unfolded and a warning viewers might find
Speaker 2: this distressing. In the aftermath, the presidential hopeful was surrounded
Speaker 2: by supporters who put themselves in considerable danger to try
Speaker 2: to help him. Let's have a look Tourbe has survived
Speaker 2: emergency surgery and is an intensive care has been non
Speaker 2: responsive thus far. His wife, Maria Claudia Tarrizona, has asked
Speaker 2: the nation to pray for his survival, saying, Miguel is
Speaker 2: currently fighting for his life. Let us ask God to
Speaker 2: guide the hands of the doctors who are treating him.
Speaker 2: A security guard has detained the alleged attacker, who is
Speaker 2: believed to be just fifteen years old. He's in police custody. Kosher.
Speaker 2: We've seen this sort of violence too often in South America.
Speaker 2: I can argue it's happened in North America in recent
Speaker 2: times as well.
Speaker 18: Indeed, now Latin America is a very dangerous place. I
Speaker 18: think it's eight percent of the world's population and one
Speaker 18: third of the homicides happened there. So that's just the
Speaker 18: baseline situation. But then you layer on top of that
Speaker 18: the political angle to this, and there's been quite a
Speaker 18: few I was looking it up.
Speaker 1: A presidential candidate for Ecuador was shot and killed.
Speaker 18: Recently, a mayoral candidate from Mexico was shot as well.
Speaker 1: A few years ago.
Speaker 18: Bolscenario, the former president of Brazil, was stabbed survived.
Speaker 1: It was stabbed in twenty eighteen.
Speaker 18: So this seems to be another part of the playbook
Speaker 18: with just as a political climate gets worse and worse
Speaker 18: and the stakes get higher, you do see that, whether
Speaker 18: it's the riots in La or these kinds of assassinations,
Speaker 18: and I think we'll see more of them.
Speaker 2: Unfortunately, unfortunately, and the that so many of these victims
Speaker 2: tend to be on the conservative side of politics. Has
Speaker 2: not escaped attention either. Koshergator, thank you so much for
Speaker 2: your time. Time still to come. Alex Stein will be
Speaker 2: here to celebrate Pride months. You don't want to miss that.
Speaker 2: Welcome back. Joining me now is comedian and host of
Speaker 2: Primetime with Alex Stein on Blaze TV. Alex We've often
Speaker 2: remarked about Donald Trump being the funniest president. We saw
Speaker 2: some of his work earlier with his diagnosis of Greta Thunberg.
Speaker 2: His comedic timing is impeccable and it appears to have
Speaker 2: rubbed off on the VP. Here is jd Vance with
Speaker 2: comedian Theo Vaughn talking about the Big Beautiful Bill and
Speaker 2: the Bengals.
Speaker 12: You think Trey Hendrickson will get signed.
Speaker 15: That's the million dollar question or I guess the fifty
Speaker 15: million dollar question.
Speaker 12: Are you going to stub.
Speaker 15: That was actually an unknown? That's a big part of
Speaker 15: the Big Beautiful Bill is thirty million dollars to the
Speaker 15: Bengals to help with salary cap space. I mean, look,
Speaker 15: so Hendrickson in his market, dude, Dude, he's a generational talent.
Speaker 2: Alex is a rare politician. Vance just on the ho von.
Speaker 2: He revealed in that interview with the VP that he's
Speaker 2: got Tim Walls coming on the program tamp On. Tim
Speaker 2: is going to be on his show. How do you
Speaker 2: think that's going to go?
Speaker 19: Well, tam On tam the football coach and knows nothing
Speaker 19: about football.
Speaker 4: That is going to be very entertaining.
Speaker 19: But I just want to say something, Rita to your
Speaker 19: audience and Sky News. You know, I have been accused
Speaker 19: of being anti LGBTQ in the past, and I want
Speaker 19: to say that that is absolutely impossible because I'm a
Speaker 19: Dallas Cowboys fan, and being a Dallas Cowboys fan in
Speaker 19: America means that you cannot have any more gay pride
Speaker 19: than that. So you know, I wouldn't be surprised if
Speaker 19: they didn't try to give the Bengals thirty million dollars
Speaker 19: to help with the salary cap.
Speaker 4: I mean, they need it. They have a bunch of
Speaker 4: good players.
Speaker 19: There is that tether and I could be afore be
Speaker 19: able to afford very much longer.
Speaker 4: So I wouldn't be surprised if JD.
Speaker 19: Vance put his finger on the scale to try to
Speaker 19: help out his home team.
Speaker 2: Well, it happens that JD. Vance was being interviewed there
Speaker 2: with THEO Vaughn as Elon Musk and Donald Trump were
Speaker 2: having their massive feud on X. Of course he was
Speaker 2: asked about it. It was happening as he was on
Speaker 2: his way to the interview, And this is his explanation
Speaker 2: at that early stage about why Elon had him melt down.
Speaker 15: Elon's new to politics, right, so his businesses are being
Speaker 15: attacked NonStop. They're literally like firebombing some of his cars.
Speaker 15: And by the way, we're looking into a lot of
Speaker 15: the stuff. I mean, some of that stuff we're looking
Speaker 15: into as an active terrorism at the Department of Justice,
Speaker 15: because I think it is an act of terrorism. So
Speaker 15: I think part of it is this guy got into
Speaker 15: politics and has suffered a lot for it. But I mean,
Speaker 15: and I get the frustration there, and I get the
Speaker 15: frustration that. I mean, look, Congress got the spinning bil,
Speaker 15: But the main purpose of the bill is not actually
Speaker 15: spending or cutting spending, though it does cut a lot
Speaker 15: of spending. The main purpose of the bill is to
Speaker 15: prevent the biggest tax increase. But I understand, like it's
Speaker 15: a good bill, it's not a perfect bill. Like the
Speaker 15: process in DC if you're a business leader, you probably
Speaker 15: get frustrated with that process because it's more you know, bureaucratic,
Speaker 15: it's more slow moving. So I think there's just some
Speaker 15: frustrations there. But I really, man, I think it's a
Speaker 15: huge mistake for him to go after the president like that,
Speaker 15: And I think that if he and the President are
Speaker 15: in some blood feud, most importantly, it's going to be
Speaker 15: bad for the country. But I think it's going to
Speaker 15: be I don't think it's going to be good for
Speaker 15: Elon either.
Speaker 2: Alex what's been the fallout. Will Elon ever be trusted
Speaker 2: again after that meltdown?
Speaker 4: I do not think that Elon will be trusted again.
Speaker 19: I mean, you're hearing stories too of Elon of Shelton
Speaker 19: cabinet members that had secret service, you know, detail with
Speaker 19: him at the time, and he's not getting in trouble,
Speaker 19: and you know, there's been allegations that he was supposedly
Speaker 19: potentially on some sort of therapeutic kenemine at the time
Speaker 19: of these tweets. Listen, if you really look at Elon Musk,
Speaker 19: I like Elon Musk, but and honestly, I'm actually I
Speaker 19: agree with him that.
Speaker 4: There's probably a little too much bloating this bill.
Speaker 19: But at the same time, Elon Musk called out Donald Trump,
Speaker 19: and I think that it needs to publicly apologize and
Speaker 19: try to harp back on the Trump train because him
Speaker 19: beefing with Donald Trump is a proposition that I think
Speaker 19: will only be a hindrance to his success in the
Speaker 19: future for Elon to continue to favor Donald Trump.
Speaker 2: Oh look, I think Elon very quickly realized his considerable
Speaker 2: mistake there. He's gone back and deleted some of those
Speaker 2: crazy tweets and he was tweeting in a far more
Speaker 2: conciliatory tone. But you know what, if you're going to
Speaker 2: have a meltdown behind closed doors, do not put it
Speaker 2: on X. That is not very clever at all. Now
Speaker 2: you've been up to mischief again, Alex. I know how
Speaker 2: much you enjoy Pride Month. He talked about that earlier.
Speaker 2: Here you are spreading the joy at a city council meeting.
Speaker 20: I just want to say that this is my favorite
Speaker 20: month of the year. So I wrote a little song
Speaker 20: about this month and why it's so special to me.
Speaker 20: So if you guys want to sing along, you guys
Speaker 20: are welcome to sing along.
Speaker 2: In that is That's enough. That's enough, Alex, I don't
Speaker 2: know what to say. Is the tune going to be
Speaker 2: out on iTunes? What were you thinking there? Some of
Speaker 2: those lyrics we kin'd even played at this time of night.
Speaker 4: No, we can't.
Speaker 19: But Rita, there is no lies detected whatsoever. This whole
Speaker 19: entire month, every corporation decides to put their pride flag
Speaker 19: right in our face and listen, I'm not anti gay.
Speaker 19: I love my gay brothers and sisters, but I'm kind
Speaker 19: of sticking of these companies virtue signaling for one month
Speaker 19: of the year. It's like, give me a break. You know,
Speaker 19: we should have a support for everybody year round. And
Speaker 19: you know I had to go up there and do
Speaker 19: a little primetime Alex Stein and I will say this
Speaker 19: that ruta you called it. We're having a better version,
Speaker 19: a much higher quality version of this song.
Speaker 4: Coming out this week.
Speaker 19: It should be a out I think within twenty four
Speaker 19: hours of this interview tonight.
Speaker 2: Oh wonderful. Maybe you could put it with a bonus track,
Speaker 2: the one you wrote about AOC What was that one
Speaker 2: called Big Booty Latina's I think again another bang out
Speaker 2: from you now before you go. Those crazy La riots
Speaker 2: have spread to Texas, the great state of Texas. Well,
Speaker 2: they're not rights there yet, They're just a protest if
Speaker 2: you doesn't confuse Souls have showed up in Austin, which
Speaker 2: is barely Texas anyway these days, but they refuse to
Speaker 2: explain their position. When Owen Schreyer showed up, I would just.
Speaker 12: Think, if you're out here for a cause, you'd be
Speaker 12: able to talk about it, and none of you can.
Speaker 2: Bunches, if you can't, le don't you just wait? All right?
Speaker 16: Think what we're all here for. I've been just shut
Speaker 16: up like everybody else, and all right, you're edituting everyone.
Speaker 4: I'm asking as do you believe it alone?
Speaker 2: Yes?
Speaker 7: I do. But the time in a place.
Speaker 4: States America at the time.
Speaker 2: I won rate the room, Alex, what do you think
Speaker 2: about these protests or that they're going to take hold
Speaker 2: in Texas?
Speaker 3: Well?
Speaker 4: I think Texas is not going to be as bad
Speaker 4: as La.
Speaker 19: And great job of Owen Schroyer going into the Lions
Speaker 19: then and talking to the protesters.
Speaker 4: But this is the problem though real quickly. It is
Speaker 4: that these protesters, the.
Speaker 19: American ones, now we have our own military potentially fighting
Speaker 19: against American citizens.
Speaker 4: That's bad, and the other thing is the illegal immigrants.
Speaker 19: They don't even want to be legal immigrants because they
Speaker 19: want to be able to make money, send it back home,
Speaker 19: and not pay taxes.
Speaker 4: So these people that are fighting against Americans don't even
Speaker 4: want to actually be American. That's a big problem.
Speaker 2: Well, they're fighting the flag of another country, so that's
Speaker 2: a pretty good sign of where they want to be.
Speaker 2: Alex Stein, thank you for your time, and that's it
Speaker 2: from May. Up next is Newsnight, good Night,
