1
00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:07,280
Speaker 1: On scorn Lands Ostrodia. This is the Wider Panalty Show.

2
00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:12,080
Speaker 1: Good evening and welcome to the readA Panety show coming

3
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:16,200
Speaker 1: up tonight. Did Scomo deserve his King's Birthday honor? As

4
00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:19,799
Speaker 1: the former PM gives some sage words of advice to

5
00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:23,279
Speaker 1: the coalition, Dan While will be here to unpack all that.

6
00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:27,520
Speaker 1: We'll also look at Jackie Lamby's colorful advice to the

7
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:32,080
Speaker 1: AFL as the Tasmanian senator implores the league to find

8
00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:36,199
Speaker 1: its snackers. Professor Implymer will join me to discuss Australia's

9
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 1: international reputation being damaged by overregulation. Corey DeAngelis will have

10
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:44,360
Speaker 1: all the latest from the US, and later in the

11
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 1: hour Gap Power joins me to cover everything from the

12
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 1: aftermath of Elon Musk's meltdown to the latest on Greta

13
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 1: Thumberg's ill fated trip to Gaza and left He's losing.

14
00:00:56,240 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 1: It is all about the rights in LA but first

15
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 1: good Morrison has been awarded a Companion of the Order

16
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 1: of Australia and the King's Birthday Honors for his leadership

17
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 1: of the nation's COVID nineteen response. The former PM had

18
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,400
Speaker 1: some words of advice for the Coalition to told The

19
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 1: Australian newspaper that since COVID we've become more focused on

20
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 1: treating the symptoms than treating the cause in policy, and

21
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:31,040
Speaker 1: that's obviously a mantle for the Coalition to take up now.

22
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 1: He also said that liberals need to realize that it's

23
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 1: not just about being responsible financial managers. You can't just

24
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 1: say oh, we're going to balance the budget. Well, what

25
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 1: does that mean? How is that helping me? How does

26
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 1: that address the opportunities that I have joining me now

27
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 1: for more on this As Deputy Executive Director of the

28
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 1: Institute of Public Affairs, Dan Wild, Dan, this King's Birthday On,

29
00:01:56,720 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 1: let's start with that. Is it deserved or not? Which

30
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 1: given Australias some would say extreme COVID response.

31
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 2: I don't think it's deserved in this particular instance reach

32
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,520
Speaker 2: or at least for what it was provided for. I

33
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,800
Speaker 2: do think it's right that the birthday on has acknowledged

34
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,840
Speaker 2: those who have given significant public service, and Scott Morrison

35
00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 2: has certainly done that. But to specify that it be

36
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 2: made for the COVID nineteen response, I think really diminishes

37
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:28,959
Speaker 2: the value of that honor's list because our COVID nineteen

38
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,320
Speaker 2: response was a complete and total disaster. It was a

39
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 2: case study in everything not to do, both at the

40
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 2: federal level and the state level. Although I will give

41
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 2: one bit of credit, which was when the federal government

42
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 2: did close the borders internationally very early on in twenty twenty,

43
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:48,360
Speaker 2: which was the right move, But everything that came after

44
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 2: that was the wrong thing, including handing out billions of

45
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 2: dollars to Daniel Andrews to shut down the state of

46
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 2: Victoria and lock up millions of Victorians for the longest

47
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 2: time of any jurisdiction in the world. So look, I

48
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 2: think that Scott Morrison would probably benefit from the idea

49
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 2: of dignified silence, you know, rather than trying to wait

50
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:08,799
Speaker 2: into these debates.

51
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 1: Yes, the National Cabinet, I think ended up being a

52
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:18,240
Speaker 1: disastrous idea and the fact that the premiers were so

53
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:21,640
Speaker 1: emboldened and there was no pushback from the federal government,

54
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 1: no pushback from Scott Morrison to some of the extreme

55
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 1: measures they were taking, and not just extreme in limiting

56
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,919
Speaker 1: people's freedoms, but just the economic carnage. We have seen

57
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 1: the harm done to young kids. The list is long,

58
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 1: as you know. But what do you make of his

59
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 1: advice to the Liberals that they have to be more

60
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 1: than just sound economic managers. I mean it's the sort

61
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 1: of advice that I wish he'd given himself when he

62
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 1: was PM, because as you may well recall, he was

63
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 1: famous for saying there's no jobs in the culture wars

64
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 1: and he was really kind of absent from some of

65
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 1: those important debates that are centered around values. Well, that's right.

66
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 2: I think that you know, Scott Morrison's comments lacked credibility,

67
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 2: you know, on the economy as well as on culture

68
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 2: as he mentioned, but on the economy. Don't forget he

69
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,760
Speaker 2: was the Prime Minister who, along with Josh Fredenberg, signed

70
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:17,840
Speaker 2: Australia up to net zero. I mean, one of the

71
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:22,159
Speaker 2: most economically illiterate policies that we've ever seen as a nation.

72
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 2: And the reason they signed up to it was actually

73
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 2: to save Josh Freidenberg's seat. Well how did that work out?

74
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 2: You know, it didn't work out politically and it's been

75
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:34,360
Speaker 2: a disaster for our economy, for our society, regional Australia,

76
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 2: as well as undermining our national security because it makes

77
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 2: us more dependent upon the imports of solar panels and

78
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,840
Speaker 2: wind turbines, the majority of which come from China. So

79
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 2: no matter which element you look at, net net zero

80
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:50,799
Speaker 2: has been a complete disaster for Australia. So you know, again,

81
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 2: I respect anybody who's engaged in public service in you know,

82
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,720
Speaker 2: including Scott Morrison who's put their hand up and had

83
00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 2: their name on a ballot and given it a go.

84
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 2: But really I think she's opening on this matter. Does

85
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,719
Speaker 2: lack credibility?

86
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:09,039
Speaker 1: Now re elected Tasmanian Senator Jackie Lamby has lashed out

87
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 1: of the AFL. She had some choice words for AFL

88
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:16,240
Speaker 1: CEO Andrew Dylan and Tasmanian Devil's boss Brendan Gailees and

89
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 1: to Lamby met with the duo and left the meeting

90
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:23,280
Speaker 1: very unimpressed Dan. She said the AFL is going down

91
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 1: the gurglar and needs new leaders with some knackers between

92
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:31,680
Speaker 1: their legs. She also said I'd built myself up and

93
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 1: was ready to go, thinking I was going to have

94
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,919
Speaker 1: to take on an Eddie McGuire type thing, and it

95
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:40,680
Speaker 1: was like walking into a sauna. Here, everyone, get your

96
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 1: towel wrapped around you. Let's have some fuzzy wuzzy time. Jesus,

97
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:49,039
Speaker 1: this should have been united this should have united Tasmania,

98
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 1: but instead it has ripped us apart. She also said

99
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 1: they need a hard man at the top, somebody with

100
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 1: some knackers between their legs. Christ Almighty, these are all

101
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 1: direct quote. By the way, I'm not at living here

102
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,600
Speaker 1: at all. She also said someone better go back in

103
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 1: there that's got some balls between their legs, because there

104
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:11,479
Speaker 1: is some shit going on in there that needs to

105
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:17,279
Speaker 1: be fixed. To put aside the colorful language, does she

106
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:21,720
Speaker 1: have a point about the AFL and it's a Tasmania strategy.

107
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 2: I'm not sure I quite follow the sauna analogy there that,

108
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 2: you know. Putting that aside, I think that I think,

109
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 2: you know, Senator Lamby's assessment of the leadership of the

110
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 2: AFL is correct. The AFL has been lacking in leadership

111
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 2: for a very long time. She said that going down

112
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:42,840
Speaker 2: the gurgler, well, I think they've will have truly gone

113
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:45,479
Speaker 2: down the gurgler in many ways, not just with the

114
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:49,599
Speaker 2: handling of the Tasmania situation, but maybe years ago, the

115
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,919
Speaker 2: AFL gave up being a real sporting code and basically

116
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:57,039
Speaker 2: became a you know that, I guess a wing of

117
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,719
Speaker 2: the Labor Party in essence by promoting you know, the

118
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:03,600
Speaker 2: labor parties to visit social agendas and supporting you know,

119
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,280
Speaker 2: the Voice to Parliament and various other forms of activism,

120
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,520
Speaker 2: and having a welcome to country ceremony before pretty much

121
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 2: every AFL match, and dividing the AFL community. Also acting

122
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:17,120
Speaker 2: in a way that's inconsistent with what fans want, you know.

123
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 2: For example, fans don't want the rules to be changed

124
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 2: every year. They want to bring back state of origin,

125
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 2: they want to keep the AFL Grand Final for Saturday afternoon,

126
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 2: not moving it to the evening, and various other things.

127
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:33,200
Speaker 2: So basically everything that the AFL community wants, AFL Headquarters

128
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 2: opposes and does the complete opposite thing. So I think,

129
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 2: you know, putting aside Senator Lamby's you know, somewhat ambiguous metaphors,

130
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 2: I think that her assessment of the massive failures of

131
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:45,680
Speaker 2: corporate AFL is bang on.

132
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 1: Now, global sportswear giant NIGI has decided to end it's

133
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 1: one hundred thousand dollars ambassadorial partnership with former Stralien of

134
00:07:56,520 --> 00:08:00,320
Speaker 1: the Year Grace Tame after she posted some radical left

135
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 1: content online attacking supporters of Israel and platforming some really

136
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 1: quite disturbing views her maas sympathizers. Essentially. Reportedly of particular

137
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 1: concern to the brand was Tame's decision to repost a

138
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 1: statement from Palestinian writer Mohammad L. Kurd, As reported by

139
00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 1: the Australian newspaper. El Kerd's statement appeared to condone the

140
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 1: murder of two Israeli embassy officials in Washington and angrily

141
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 1: attacked journalists who reported that the slayings were an act

142
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 1: of anti Semitism. He wrote, the media class is scrambling

143
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:38,480
Speaker 1: to reframe the shooting that targeted to Israeli state officials

144
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 1: as a random anti Semitic attack, even though it was

145
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:46,440
Speaker 1: undeniably and by the alleged shooter's own admission, a response

146
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:50,080
Speaker 1: to the ongoing Israeli assault on Gaza, which killed one

147
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 1: hundred and seven Palestinians in the last twenty four hours alone. Dan,

148
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:58,240
Speaker 1: this is quite a significant move by Nike. That've always

149
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,439
Speaker 1: been more for a long time anyhow, been very left

150
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:04,319
Speaker 1: in their political messaging, in their ads. They're not afraid

151
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 1: to be divisive. But Grace Tame was too far left

152
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:09,600
Speaker 1: even for Nike.

153
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:13,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right, reader. I think we might have talked

154
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,440
Speaker 2: about this last week when it looked like Nike was

155
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 2: going to dump the sponsorship, and now they've done that.

156
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 2: And look, I think this is an important decision by

157
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,440
Speaker 2: Nike to draw a line in the sand and say that,

158
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:26,840
Speaker 2: you know, there's certain forms of activism that they're not

159
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 2: going to tolerate. And you know, again, as I've said previously,

160
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 2: I think that it's a shame because a lot of

161
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:37,280
Speaker 2: what Grace Tame was representing and advocating for in terms

162
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:41,080
Speaker 2: of domestic violence and abuse of women. It's a very

163
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 2: important issue that should be used to unite the community

164
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,599
Speaker 2: behind that important cause. But you know, when some of

165
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 2: these advocates end up engaging in social activism, they have

166
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,120
Speaker 2: the effect of diminishing the couse that it is that

167
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 2: they're standing up for. And I think ultimately Nike really

168
00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 2: had no choice but to severtize. And you know, hopefully

169
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 2: this sends a bit of a message that if you're

170
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:06,200
Speaker 2: going to be an advocate for important causes in the community,

171
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,200
Speaker 2: that it's better off that you stay to those causes

172
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:12,480
Speaker 2: rather than deviating into different political issues that will ultimately

173
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 2: divide the community.

174
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:19,800
Speaker 1: Well, talking about deviating from political issues and dividing the community,

175
00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:24,400
Speaker 1: Greta Thumberg. She's gone from climate change warrior to anti

176
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:29,600
Speaker 1: Israeli activist and the IDEA has bordered the ship, the

177
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 1: boat she was on. They have taken control of the ship.

178
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 1: The activists have been arrested without resistance, accepting water and

179
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,440
Speaker 1: sandwiches from the IDEF. I don't think any of them

180
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 1: are in any trouble, but this prompted Greta to post

181
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 1: this pre recorded video.

182
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 3: My name is give A Chamber and I am from Sweden.

183
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 3: If you see this video, we have been intercepted and

184
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:57,440
Speaker 3: kidnapped in international waters by the Israeli occupational forces or

185
00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:02,280
Speaker 3: forces that support israel I. Urge all my friends, family

186
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:06,560
Speaker 3: and comrades to put pressure on the Swedish government to

187
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,560
Speaker 3: release me and the others as soon as possible.

188
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:13,839
Speaker 1: So much Hyperbly kidnapped dad. It hardly looked like a

189
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 1: kidnapping to me. But what has she achieved with this

190
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:21,679
Speaker 1: little mission of hers I'm not too sure.

191
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 2: I assume the sandwiches were vegan options that were available

192
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 2: to those on board.

193
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:31,120
Speaker 1: Plastic wrapped. Oh no, they're wrapped in plastic, Dan, this

194
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:32,319
Speaker 1: is this is very taping.

195
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:32,680
Speaker 4: I don't know.

196
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:34,520
Speaker 2: Maybe they won't they won't be able to eat them

197
00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 2: now as a moral sort of moral virtue. But look,

198
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,960
Speaker 2: I don't know what Greta is trying to achieve. It

199
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 2: sort of seems a bit old hat now. I'm not

200
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:48,800
Speaker 2: too sure how seriously she's she's sort of taken. You know,

201
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 2: I've often wondered whether she's you know, a bit of

202
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 2: a front for you know, those who are more motivated

203
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,280
Speaker 2: to try to do something. But you know, you just

204
00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 2: look at it and think, well, she's still quite young. Yeah, Look,

205
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:04,080
Speaker 2: I'm not too sure what she's trying to achieve by

206
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 2: doing this.

207
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:10,320
Speaker 1: I think her power is pretty much diminished. The way

208
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 1: she was used by a tool by others when she

209
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 1: was a child doesn't apply anymore because they would yes

210
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,400
Speaker 1: have her at the forefront of these causes, and you

211
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 1: couldn't criticize her because she was a child after all,

212
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 1: so you couldn't actually even dispute some of the nonsense

213
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:31,080
Speaker 1: she was saying. And once she turned eighteen, that change,

214
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:34,080
Speaker 1: once she became an adult and you could actually hold

215
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,760
Speaker 1: her to account as you would any other activists. I

216
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 1: think that has really seen her power and influence diminish somewhat. Dad.

217
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 1: While it's always a pleasure. Thanks for your time joining

218
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 1: me now is a esteem geologist and author, Professor Ian

219
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:54,880
Speaker 1: plymer Ian. Let's start with energy expert Soul Cavanick. He's

220
00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:58,719
Speaker 1: written in The Australian that an anti investment ideology has

221
00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:03,160
Speaker 1: taken hold, meaning that we now have a reputation of

222
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 1: over regulation and of finding excuses to say no to projects.

223
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:13,319
Speaker 1: He writes, we have become so accustomed to politicize delays

224
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:17,439
Speaker 1: and cancelations of projects we're surprised when a project is approved.

225
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 1: Common sense is now being cherished as the exception rather

226
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 1: than the rule. The seven year delay to an approval

227
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 1: that always should and would ultimately be given is the problem.

228
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 1: Investors have to ask themselves if they should even bother

229
00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 1: trying to invest in Australia if they have to wait

230
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:38,720
Speaker 1: this long just to know if their investment is welcome.

231
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:42,320
Speaker 1: This is why the next wave of gas investments is

232
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 1: happening in the US and the Middle East instead of

233
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:51,000
Speaker 1: here in Is he being too harsh now? We just

234
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:56,320
Speaker 1: being careful in protecting the natural environment in having these

235
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:57,560
Speaker 1: regulations in place.

236
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:01,679
Speaker 4: Well, I think he's absolutely on the money. Investors want

237
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:04,800
Speaker 4: to make a profit while they're doing that. They employ people,

238
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:10,120
Speaker 4: they pay taxes, they pay royalties, they add infrastructure, and

239
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:16,120
Speaker 4: no investor worries about having to fulfill certain approvals. This

240
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 4: is done for the community good and for the environment.

241
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 4: But this has got absolutely and totally out of hand.

242
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 4: For example, in the Pilborough, to build the roy Hill

243
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,200
Speaker 4: iron ore mine in an iron ore mining district, in

244
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 4: an iron ore mining state, in an iron ore mining country,

245
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 4: four thousand, nine hundred and fifty approvals were needed. That

246
00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 4: costs hundreds of millions of dollars, That costs years of delays.

247
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 4: And this is at a time when our country has

248
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 4: low productivity, when the unions are capitalizing on having a

249
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,680
Speaker 4: labor government, so they're getting more muscle in the Pilborough.

250
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:55,760
Speaker 1: And then of.

251
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 4: Course a government's in debt and they will think, Hm,

252
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:06,120
Speaker 4: we've stolen all this super money with unrealized capital gains.

253
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:08,880
Speaker 4: Maybe we could do that with a mine. Maybe we

254
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 4: could steal the profits before they're made. And so as

255
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 4: an investor you think, well, why should I invest in Australia.

256
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:20,240
Speaker 4: Why not investing in Africa? And in the case of gas,

257
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 4: just the time to get the approvals and the conditions

258
00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 4: on those approvals make it a very very long and

259
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:31,040
Speaker 4: expensive process. So what has happened now is we've had

260
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 4: a massive drop in investment in Australia. We have eighty

261
00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:39,240
Speaker 4: mining projects that are now on hold. No one dares

262
00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:41,600
Speaker 4: go ahead with them because you don't know what the

263
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 4: future holds, and mining requires a very long term stability.

264
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 4: If I have a geological idea, by the time that

265
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 4: idea is drilled out and we do the feasibility studies

266
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:57,320
Speaker 4: and build a mind, it's twenty five years and then

267
00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 4: you need another twenty five years of production to pay

268
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 4: that back. So you cannot have governments having knee jerk

269
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 4: reactions because investment money is very fickle. It'll just move

270
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 4: somewhere else, and it'll move to countries which we regard

271
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 4: as very very high risk. But Australia, unfortunately is one

272
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 4: of the high risk countries of the world, and it's

273
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:22,800
Speaker 4: getting worse. So I'm not surprised. I think the comments

274
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:27,480
Speaker 4: were fairly restrained, and those of us in the mining

275
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:30,840
Speaker 4: industry they full well that there are better places to

276
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 4: invest money than Australia.

277
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:39,760
Speaker 1: Well, right now the Trump administration is turbocharging mining projects

278
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:42,480
Speaker 1: over there. They want to not just become energy independent,

279
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:46,240
Speaker 1: but become an energy superpower. Is that going to put

280
00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:51,560
Speaker 1: even more pressure for Australia because we've got investors that

281
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 1: can opt for America instead of US. They don't even

282
00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:56,680
Speaker 1: have to go to Africa or South America.

283
00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 4: Well, that's very much the case. There are for Australian

284
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:03,760
Speaker 4: companies who are looking at oil and gas in the

285
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 4: US simply because it's too risky in Australia. There are

286
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,440
Speaker 4: quite a few companies that are looking at downline process

287
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:14,479
Speaker 4: in the US rather than doing it in Australia. Why

288
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,560
Speaker 4: because energy is cheap and if you do not have

289
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:21,040
Speaker 4: cheap energy and do not have reliable energy for a

290
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:25,000
Speaker 4: long period of time, you cannot have a manufacturing industry.

291
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:28,159
Speaker 4: So the whole of the economy in the US is

292
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 4: based on cheap energy. That's why people are flocking there

293
00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:36,240
Speaker 4: to invest. But in Australia we're becoming a renewables powerhouse.

294
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:40,640
Speaker 4: Energy has got far more expensive, it's unreliable, so why

295
00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 4: invest here. So it's all about the cost of energy,

296
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:47,080
Speaker 4: and we are having Australian companies that have made money

297
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:50,080
Speaker 4: in Australia and are now looking at investing that money

298
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,080
Speaker 4: in the US. That shouldn't happen.

299
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:56,399
Speaker 1: Well, can we be become an renewable superpower? This is

300
00:17:56,440 --> 00:18:00,359
Speaker 1: something Chris Bowen has long talked about, is that the

301
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,120
Speaker 1: alternative here, Well, it's.

302
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:07,520
Speaker 4: Made as totally and totally dependent upon China. And as

303
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:12,120
Speaker 4: one of your earlier guests, Dan Wild mentioned, the Chinese

304
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:17,320
Speaker 4: control our systems for generating wind power, they control our

305
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 4: systems for generating solar power, they control our transmission systems.

306
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 4: They could turn off these systems in an instant and

307
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:28,320
Speaker 4: all of a sudden, we wouldn't have energy. All of

308
00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:31,840
Speaker 4: a sudden, we wouldn't have food being transported to the

309
00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:35,960
Speaker 4: markets and to the cities. So we have lost our

310
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 4: sovereign security by putting energy in the hands of a

311
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:45,840
Speaker 4: foreign power. You cannot run a successful country unless you

312
00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:51,080
Speaker 4: have cheap, reliable energy. And what our renewables investment is

313
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:55,600
Speaker 4: doing is forcing us to have expensive and unreliable energy

314
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,919
Speaker 4: and to be dependent upon someone else. This is a

315
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:05,840
Speaker 4: terribly dangerous path to go to heren.

316
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 1: And I've got some good news. The snow season has

317
00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:11,720
Speaker 1: started and despite the warnings we had that Australian kids

318
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,919
Speaker 1: will not see snow, it's going to be a bumper season.

319
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:17,960
Speaker 1: They're saying it's the best in several years. And at

320
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 1: the same time we've got Queensland recording temperatures as low

321
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:25,920
Speaker 1: as half a degree in some areas, residents waking up

322
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:29,440
Speaker 1: to frost. So we're run out of time in but

323
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 1: good news for Australian kids, many more years of enjoying, enjoying.

324
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:36,920
Speaker 1: J Climon, thank you so much for a time.

325
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:38,399
Speaker 4: Good night, Thank you.

326
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 1: See that's why we call it climate change. Now we've

327
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:44,240
Speaker 1: got to call it climate change, not global warming. They

328
00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:47,720
Speaker 1: give you a time, professor, good night, Thank you. Still

329
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:51,120
Speaker 1: to come, Left is losing it, plus the latest from

330
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:56,840
Speaker 1: the US, including the lawless protests in California Forridangelis is

331
00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:08,639
Speaker 1: up next. You're watching the reader Panning You show, and

332
00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:12,720
Speaker 1: it's time for Left is losing it and the Democrats

333
00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:17,080
Speaker 1: and their radical, violent wing are reminding the world tonight.

334
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:20,200
Speaker 1: Why Donald Trump won the election in a landslide, winning

335
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 1: every swing state, the popular vote, and the all important

336
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:27,479
Speaker 1: Electoral College with a massive margin of three hundred and

337
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:30,920
Speaker 1: twelve to two hundred and twenty six votes. And the

338
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:34,520
Speaker 1: heart of Trump's America First agenda was ending the illegal

339
00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:40,119
Speaker 1: immigration crisis and deporting the millions who flooded in illegally

340
00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:43,919
Speaker 1: in recent years. And you will not find a better

341
00:20:44,000 --> 00:21:16,480
Speaker 1: ad for that policy than the scenes in LA right now. Yes,

342
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:21,199
Speaker 1: the lawless thugs are demonstrating precisely why they should be

343
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:25,080
Speaker 1: deported and why those who break the law to support

344
00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:28,560
Speaker 1: them should be locked up. As the National Guard is

345
00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:32,399
Speaker 1: called in to restore order, the fires continue to burn.

346
00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:35,359
Speaker 1: Some of these fires have been burning for so long

347
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:39,119
Speaker 1: that the cars are almost gone. Look at that. But

348
00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 1: authority is the National Guard will restore order. As these

349
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:46,440
Speaker 1: writers found out. Some of these writers found out.

350
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:47,720
Speaker 4: They're coming out.

351
00:21:47,760 --> 00:22:03,399
Speaker 5: They're coming out.

352
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:09,240
Speaker 1: And while the Mexican flag was proudly flying throughout these protests,

353
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:13,119
Speaker 1: the American flag was really nowhere to be seen unless

354
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:21,960
Speaker 1: it was being set alight. Yes, they proudly fly the

355
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:25,520
Speaker 1: Mexican flag, but they burned the American one as they

356
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:29,560
Speaker 1: riot to stop being deported to Mexico and other countries

357
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:33,760
Speaker 1: they hold in higher esteem than America. This is the left.

358
00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:37,879
Speaker 1: It's what they do, whether it's Antifa, BLM or these

359
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:42,360
Speaker 1: lawless thugs. Remember, the violence from the left intensified as

360
00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:45,560
Speaker 1: soon as Trump became president. The first time.

361
00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:58,040
Speaker 6: Police had to push back the protesters so firefighters could

362
00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:10,560
Speaker 6: get to the fleemes.

363
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 7: Small fires had appeared all day, this up to the temperature,

364
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:21,119
Speaker 7: which of course was the point.

365
00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:26,280
Speaker 8: One demonstrator through a flash bangrenade back at police.

366
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:28,920
Speaker 1: It exploded in an officer's face.

367
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:29,840
Speaker 5: And save to your gas.

368
00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 1: Six officers reportedly injured. Funny how that was never called

369
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:38,720
Speaker 1: an insurrection. The Democrats have always fanned this sort of violence.

370
00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:42,320
Speaker 1: They have incentivized it, they have defended it, and even

371
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:45,960
Speaker 1: as La descends into violence and chaos, they are calling

372
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:51,639
Speaker 1: for more his Democrats. La City council member Hernandez telling

373
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:56,359
Speaker 1: protesters rioters really to escalate their tactics.

374
00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 9: They know how quickly we mobilized. That's why they're changing tactics.

375
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,080
Speaker 8: Because community defense works and our resistance has slowed them

376
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:03,639
Speaker 8: down before.

377
00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 10: And if they're doing their tactics, then so are we.

378
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:12,360
Speaker 10: When they saw up, when they saw up, we got

379
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 10: to throw up even stronger.

380
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:17,720
Speaker 1: And La Mayor Karen Bass also defended the protest and

381
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:20,760
Speaker 1: trumpeted LA's sanctuary city status.

382
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:24,880
Speaker 11: We are going to fight for all Angelinos, regardless of.

383
00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:27,719
Speaker 5: When they got here, whether they have papers or not.

384
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:32,200
Speaker 11: We are a city of immigrants, and this impacts hundreds

385
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,119
Speaker 11: of thousands of Angelinos.

386
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:37,200
Speaker 1: You know, it was only last year when Democrat congress

387
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:42,239
Speaker 1: Woman Maxine Waters was accusing Trump of being divisive and

388
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:44,280
Speaker 1: engaging in dangerous rhetoric.

389
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 8: I am going to spend some time with the criminal

390
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:51,960
Speaker 8: justice system, with the justice system, asking them, tell us

391
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:55,359
Speaker 8: what's going on with the domestic arians. Are they preparing

392
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:59,520
Speaker 8: a civil war against us? Should we be concerned about

393
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:03,080
Speaker 8: our say? What is he doing with this divasive language?

394
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:06,160
Speaker 8: It is dangerous and we're going to have to make

395
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 8: sure that we understand that we're not at risk with

396
00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:12,440
Speaker 8: this man talking in the way that he's doing.

397
00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:16,840
Speaker 1: Oh, Maxine Waters had plenty of fears, fevered dreams about

398
00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:20,679
Speaker 1: Trump and his supporters starting trouble. But it's the left,

399
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:24,399
Speaker 1: always the left resorting to violence and right there to

400
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:28,040
Speaker 1: defend the protesters and defend the rights of illegal immigrants

401
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:32,160
Speaker 1: to stay in the country illegally, was the congresswoman. Let's

402
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 1: have a listen to Maxine Waters.

403
00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:38,440
Speaker 11: Hughes deportation as a way to enhance his position.

404
00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:39,840
Speaker 5: We're all to fate.

405
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:40,520
Speaker 10: Where you're out there.

406
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:44,159
Speaker 11: We don't want his country to be a country a

407
00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:48,200
Speaker 11: potball coming from other broadcasts. It's outrageous. It is horrible,

408
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:51,400
Speaker 11: and we've got to make sure that we do everything

409
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:54,639
Speaker 11: every parts of the care because I think he's up

410
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:56,359
Speaker 11: to creating martial life.

411
00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:01,879
Speaker 1: He even look together we alluded to civil war. This

412
00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 1: from the woman who has a long champion feral behavior,

413
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:09,359
Speaker 1: who has called for her ideological opponents to be harassed

414
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:12,840
Speaker 1: and intimidated even when they're out for dinner, And now

415
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 1: as California descends into a lawless, violent protest, she's fanning

416
00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:21,000
Speaker 1: the flames with this sort of talk. Here, she's asked

417
00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:24,480
Speaker 1: about the National Guard being called into restore order. Don't

418
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 1: you think about the National Guard being here Trumps deploying

419
00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:29,360
Speaker 1: them and not our own governorate.

420
00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:32,080
Speaker 11: Well, the thing about it is, I don't know why

421
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:33,359
Speaker 11: they're here with guns.

422
00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:36,920
Speaker 5: Whom are they going to shoot and for what? Why

423
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,200
Speaker 5: are the gun Why are these guns here?

424
00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:40,040
Speaker 1: That's my question.

425
00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:42,639
Speaker 11: I don't care. Why are the guns have to be

426
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,520
Speaker 11: Santuary City. We know Trump doesn't like us, we know

427
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:48,680
Speaker 11: that it's tring to try to use us as an example.

428
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:52,640
Speaker 1: Is she kidding? Why they're guns? Why are they there?

429
00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:52,959
Speaker 5: Are?

430
00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:57,000
Speaker 1: Because violent miscreants have taken over the streets. They're attacking

431
00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:02,000
Speaker 1: law enforcement and generally being lawless thugs. Does she expect

432
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:04,720
Speaker 1: the National Guard to go in there with Teddy Bears

433
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:09,120
Speaker 1: and hug these criminals into submission? And if that wasn't enough,

434
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:12,720
Speaker 1: Maxine then showed up at a detention center and tried

435
00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:18,440
Speaker 1: to use her congressional authority to gain access. It didn't

436
00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:21,640
Speaker 1: go too well, as the kids say, not Today's Satan.

437
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:27,320
Speaker 11: Well, I watched Hello, Hello, Hello, congress Roman writer.

438
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:32,520
Speaker 6: I just came to use my congressional I'll go to

439
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:33,480
Speaker 6: chapline Bears.

440
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:37,359
Speaker 11: Now I need to get in.

441
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:39,359
Speaker 8: I need to get it.

442
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:47,680
Speaker 1: That was pretty delicious footage. At the end there joining

443
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:51,439
Speaker 1: me our is American Culture Project Cedia Fellow and school

444
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:56,359
Speaker 1: choice advocate Corey Deangelus. Corey Donald Trump couldn't have hoped

445
00:27:56,480 --> 00:28:00,359
Speaker 1: for a better advertisement for his deportation program, and then

446
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:03,879
Speaker 1: the violent uprising we're seeing in California right now.

447
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,960
Speaker 10: Yes, this is a great advertisement for Trump's deportation program,

448
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:11,040
Speaker 10: but it's also a great advertisement for the Republican Party

449
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:14,720
Speaker 10: in general. The Republicans already beat the Democrats on the

450
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:18,480
Speaker 10: issue of immigration overwhelmingly in the last election, and now

451
00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:22,159
Speaker 10: this is only going to cement that view in voters' minds.

452
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:24,440
Speaker 10: You look at the images from Los Angeles. It's a

453
00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:28,040
Speaker 10: war zone right now, and it's because the Democrats can't

454
00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:30,720
Speaker 10: keep their house an already. Look at Democrat runs cities.

455
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:33,920
Speaker 10: We saw this in twenty twenty with the George Floyd protest.

456
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:37,080
Speaker 10: They were burning cities all across the country. You had

457
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 10: mainstream media calling it mostly peaceful protests that were fiery,

458
00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:43,800
Speaker 10: and we're seeing the same kind of problems right now.

459
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:46,360
Speaker 10: And you have Gavin Newsom trying to tell Trump to

460
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:48,000
Speaker 10: call off the National Guard.

461
00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:49,960
Speaker 9: They're siding with the criminals.

462
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:53,280
Speaker 10: They're against the victims in these situations.

463
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 9: They are against personal property rights, they're with the looters.

464
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:01,120
Speaker 10: And you know, voters don't like this. If they're paying taxes,

465
00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:04,400
Speaker 10: they want to be protected. They don't want criminals roaming

466
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 10: the streets. You see the Mexican flag being flown all

467
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:11,720
Speaker 10: across Los Angeles. This is supposed to be America, not Mexico.

468
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:15,360
Speaker 10: And so this is this is only providing more advertising

469
00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:19,840
Speaker 10: for Trump's efforts because you know, one of his main

470
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:22,320
Speaker 10: arguments is that a lot of the immigrants are not

471
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 10: assimilating with American culture. You see them in these photographs

472
00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:29,480
Speaker 10: and these videos with flags that aren't even the American flag.

473
00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,080
Speaker 9: I mean, it's making Trump's point for him.

474
00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:37,560
Speaker 1: Well, we've seen scenes of them burning the American flag.

475
00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:39,680
Speaker 1: That's the only time I've seen the American flag in

476
00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:43,280
Speaker 1: these protests is when it was being burned. And you're right,

477
00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:46,640
Speaker 1: where is Governor Newism seems to be doing more harm

478
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 1: than good. The local authorities seem to have run soft

479
00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 1: on this as well, releasing ridiculous statements saying the peaceful protests,

480
00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:59,400
Speaker 1: and they seem to be completely unprepared for the violence

481
00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,640
Speaker 1: of the left, even though we see it often enough.

482
00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:06,000
Speaker 1: And you mentioned the Mexican flag. I think this image

483
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:09,840
Speaker 1: really summed up the protest. You can see the lineup

484
00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:14,520
Speaker 1: of police cars in this image shrouded in thick black smoke,

485
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 1: and you've got a mass protest there there flying the

486
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:22,480
Speaker 1: Mexican flag. This, to me, Corey is just the height

487
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:26,680
Speaker 1: of absurdity. These people are flying the Mexican flag and

488
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:31,280
Speaker 1: violently protesting to avoid being deported to Mexico. If you

489
00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 1: love Mexico so much that you're flying their flag on

490
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:37,840
Speaker 1: American soil, why are you so opposed to going back there?

491
00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:42,360
Speaker 10: Yeah, look, this is an invasion, it's an insurrection. If

492
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:44,200
Speaker 10: you want to take the words from the left and

493
00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:47,760
Speaker 10: use it right against them. But look, I mean this,

494
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,120
Speaker 10: Los Angeles is supposed to be the home of the

495
00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:53,200
Speaker 10: twenty twenty eight Summer Olympics, and all we have right

496
00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:57,560
Speaker 10: now is they're public officials using mental gymnastics to defend

497
00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:01,400
Speaker 10: the criminals, the rapist and the murderers and not the

498
00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:04,240
Speaker 10: victims of all these crimes. So you know, you were

499
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:09,360
Speaker 10: already We're already forecast in twenty thirty that California is

500
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:14,160
Speaker 10: going to lose four electors because they're losing population already.

501
00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:18,400
Speaker 10: More people are going to flee California. They have beautiful beaches,

502
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 10: they have a great weather, but they're still losing population

503
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:26,560
Speaker 10: because they have numbskulls running their state into the ground.

504
00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 1: Well they do. And as California is in disarray, you've

505
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 1: got in New Jersey. UFC three sixteen was underway and

506
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:43,040
Speaker 1: Trump was there and is now customary walking occurred again

507
00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:55,200
Speaker 1: to thunderous applause and krey. As soon as the big

508
00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:58,960
Speaker 1: fights were one, the fighters were jumping out of the

509
00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:04,680
Speaker 1: cage to shake Trump's hand. Here is Mehror devilishly.

510
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:10,520
Speaker 5: Thomas, He's an unjuged man he's a monster.

511
00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:11,560
Speaker 10: He's a monster.

512
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:13,080
Speaker 1: He's a monster.

513
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 4: And look he's not even not a breath.

514
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:19,000
Speaker 2: He tried that chunk in the first round too, shows

515
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,800
Speaker 2: ever to depend but I mean you're tier, You've been

516
00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:24,280
Speaker 2: worn down, and eventually he gets that choke.

517
00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:25,680
Speaker 9: Look at Moracos.

518
00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:30,320
Speaker 1: Second meeting. More time of it than the first judge

519
00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 1: is not needed tonight, Corey. There certainly has been a

520
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:39,200
Speaker 1: big cultural shift in the States, more so in sport

521
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:43,800
Speaker 1: than in entertainment. But you are seeing Trump embraced these

522
00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:47,640
Speaker 1: sporting events, particularly the UFC, but also football games, and

523
00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:54,480
Speaker 1: he's enormously popular with even in places you willdn't expect

524
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:56,920
Speaker 1: him to be popular. New Jersey is a blue state.

525
00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:00,360
Speaker 9: Yeah, it's right. Trump is a man in the people.

526
00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:04,480
Speaker 10: He won all seven swing states in November twenty twenty four,

527
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:08,400
Speaker 10: and he's continuing that trajectory. See winners like Trump, and

528
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:11,120
Speaker 10: Trump likes to win too, So you can see that

529
00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 10: in his policies and you can see it in his

530
00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:15,400
Speaker 10: public events as well. We saw us at football games

531
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:18,200
Speaker 10: leading up to the election. He's a very popular guy

532
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:21,080
Speaker 10: and he's he's a man of the people. Your everyday

533
00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:26,640
Speaker 10: citizen can can relate with Trump, and it's just as

534
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:27,360
Speaker 10: it's obvious.

535
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:28,080
Speaker 9: A plus.

536
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:31,440
Speaker 10: The main thing is that his policies are great, especially

537
00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:36,040
Speaker 10: when it comes to things like education, immigration, keeping cities safe.

538
00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:40,480
Speaker 10: Hopefully some states like California and New York can learn

539
00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:45,000
Speaker 10: from from Republican led states to be safer and.

540
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:48,440
Speaker 9: To have a better education system too.

541
00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:55,080
Speaker 1: I think New Jersey's it can be won. I mean,

542
00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:57,800
Speaker 1: there's a lot of those that it is a polarized country.

543
00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:01,080
Speaker 1: We might talk about Trump being popular. He is loath

544
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:05,400
Speaker 1: in those deep blue states, that's for sure. But I

545
00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:08,960
Speaker 1: think New Jersey is one of those ones where at

546
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:11,520
Speaker 1: the next election or maybe the one after, it could

547
00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:16,440
Speaker 1: become a red state because the people there are are

548
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:19,960
Speaker 1: sick of the Democrats abandoning them and the issues they

549
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:23,319
Speaker 1: care about. They have become so radically left some lest

550
00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:25,800
Speaker 1: the Democrats find their way, they are in danger of

551
00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:29,040
Speaker 1: losing states like New Jersey. Now let's marvel at this

552
00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:34,200
Speaker 1: ridiculous piece from the Washington Post about life on Martha's

553
00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:39,239
Speaker 1: Vineyard and Nantucket being disrupted after migrant workers were shackled

554
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:45,280
Speaker 1: and boarded onto Coast Guard boats, igniting fear among undocumented workers.

555
00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:50,320
Speaker 1: They call them who form the backbone of the island's workforce, Cory,

556
00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:54,320
Speaker 1: is this not the same community in Martha's Vineyard that

557
00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:58,600
Speaker 1: called in authorities when a few dozen illegal immigrants were

558
00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:01,840
Speaker 1: sent their way from Florida. I mean that were removed

559
00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:04,880
Speaker 1: within a couple of days, if I remember correctly. And

560
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:08,040
Speaker 1: now we're supposed to feel sorry for them because they

561
00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:09,320
Speaker 1: chap labor's gone.

562
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:12,799
Speaker 10: Yeah, they're afraid that they're not going to have their

563
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,479
Speaker 10: low cost labor. The elites over there and want people

564
00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:17,840
Speaker 10: to mow their yards and to serve them.

565
00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:21,400
Speaker 9: At the dinner table. But look, yeah, they're total hypocrites.

566
00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:23,399
Speaker 10: And this just goes to show you that so much

567
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:27,080
Speaker 10: of these knee jerk reactions from elites and these kind

568
00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:29,920
Speaker 10: of cities, it's all just based on who.

569
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:30,440
Speaker 9: They don't like.

570
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:33,200
Speaker 10: So a few years ago, is they didn't like DeSantis.

571
00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:35,880
Speaker 10: They thought DeSantis had a shot at becoming president, so

572
00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:39,279
Speaker 10: they wanted to respond by saying, oh, well, we don't

573
00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:41,680
Speaker 10: like what he's doing by sending the immigrants here, even

574
00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:43,719
Speaker 10: though they said they were a sanctuary city and they

575
00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:45,040
Speaker 10: embraced immigrants.

576
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:48,400
Speaker 9: But then now that Trump is trying to go the

577
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:48,960
Speaker 9: other way.

578
00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:53,720
Speaker 10: On the same issue and to deport immigrants from Martha's Vineyard.

579
00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:56,080
Speaker 10: Now all of a sudden, they come out with their

580
00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:57,200
Speaker 10: Trump arrangement syndrome.

581
00:35:57,239 --> 00:36:00,800
Speaker 9: That's all this is. It's the It's more of a

582
00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:02,919
Speaker 9: political argument than anything else.

583
00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:08,480
Speaker 1: And let's end with the media. ABC News has a

584
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:13,880
Speaker 1: suspended correspondentary Moran after he posts the most unhinged diet

585
00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:17,480
Speaker 1: tribe on x imaginable about President Donald Trump and Trump's

586
00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:21,680
Speaker 1: deputy chief of Staff Stephen Miller Corey. This was a

587
00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:25,960
Speaker 1: crazy rand, he wrote, and he's deleted this, but the

588
00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:29,920
Speaker 1: damage is done. He wrote, amongst other things, Miller is

589
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:34,360
Speaker 1: a man who is richly endowed with the capacity for hatred.

590
00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:38,480
Speaker 1: He's a world class hater. You can see this just

591
00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:41,360
Speaker 1: by looking at him, because you can see that his

592
00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:46,960
Speaker 1: hatreds are his spiritual nourishment. He eats his hate, he

593
00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:52,839
Speaker 1: eats his Corey. This is demented, even by ABC standards.

594
00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:55,160
Speaker 1: I could not believe this. I thought he'd been hacked,

595
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:56,600
Speaker 1: but no, he's responsible.

596
00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:00,440
Speaker 10: Yeah, it's a classic case of pure projection. And I mean,

597
00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:03,160
Speaker 10: you can see his hatred just seeping through that tweet.

598
00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:04,480
Speaker 10: He later deleted it.

599
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:07,120
Speaker 9: Maybe he was drunk when he was tweeting this. I

600
00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:08,080
Speaker 9: don't know what happened, but.

601
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:13,479
Speaker 10: It's very surprising to me that ABC is actually doing

602
00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:15,759
Speaker 10: something about it. I would have figured that he would

603
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:18,560
Speaker 10: have got a promotion at this left wing news outlet.

604
00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:22,000
Speaker 1: For he's only suspended. Corey.

605
00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:29,239
Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, maybe one when it blows over, he'll he'll

606
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:30,400
Speaker 10: get a raise or something.

607
00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:31,399
Speaker 9: In a couple of months.

608
00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:36,600
Speaker 1: Well, let's not forget Donald Trump sat down with him

609
00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:38,840
Speaker 1: for that one on one interview and he was fairly

610
00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:42,479
Speaker 1: thoroughly embarrassed. He was unprepared for that interview, and Trump

611
00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:45,880
Speaker 1: held him to account when he made some claims boldly

612
00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:48,000
Speaker 1: and when he was questioned he's like, oh no, no,

613
00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:50,440
Speaker 1: I'm not sure, I'm just asking the question, and when

614
00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:53,560
Speaker 1: he'd actually been making a statement. There were quite a

615
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:56,840
Speaker 1: few examples there. Corey DeAngelis always a pleasure. Thanks for

616
00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:57,360
Speaker 1: your time.

617
00:37:57,239 --> 00:37:59,719
Speaker 9: Tonight, Thank you reader, good talking to you.

618
00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:03,839
Speaker 1: Still to come. The fallout from Elon masks meltdown as

619
00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:08,440
Speaker 1: President Trump comments on the billionaires alleged drug use. Gabriella

620
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:20,920
Speaker 1: Power has the details. Welcome back, joining me now as

621
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:23,879
Speaker 1: host of the Power Hour, available across Guy In News

622
00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:29,440
Speaker 1: Australia's digital platforms. Gabriella Power gab Let's start with allegations

623
00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:33,120
Speaker 1: made by former advisor to Donald Trump about Elon Mask.

624
00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:37,200
Speaker 1: He claims that Elon shoulder charge Treasury Secretary Scott was

625
00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:41,600
Speaker 1: sent after a war of words turned physical just meters

626
00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:44,759
Speaker 1: from the Oval office. Gabber, what else can you tell

627
00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:46,120
Speaker 1: us about these allegations?

628
00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:49,040
Speaker 12: Oh my gosh, all Elon Mask just keeps bringing so

629
00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:52,040
Speaker 12: much drama to the White House. But as you say,

630
00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:55,080
Speaker 12: this is really interesting because this is coming from Steve Bannon,

631
00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:57,840
Speaker 12: a former advisor to Trump, and he has told the

632
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:02,040
Speaker 12: Washington Post that essentially eli and Scott Besson got into

633
00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:06,680
Speaker 12: a physical altercation back in April. So Scott Besson and

634
00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:10,720
Speaker 12: Elon Musk were pitching strategies around the IRS to Donald Trump,

635
00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:14,719
Speaker 12: and Donald Trump was apparently backing bessence, and Elon Musk

636
00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:19,239
Speaker 12: was not having any of it and allegedly treated Scott

637
00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:22,439
Speaker 12: Besson like a rugby player and put a shoulder into

638
00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:24,960
Speaker 12: his rib and the two of them had to actually

639
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:26,320
Speaker 12: get torn.

640
00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:28,439
Speaker 5: Apart by other people that were in the room.

641
00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:31,120
Speaker 12: So who knows what Elon Musk was actually on at

642
00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:34,839
Speaker 12: this point in time. Elon Musk is quickly learning how

643
00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:38,480
Speaker 12: politics works, and that is not how you handle a disagreement.

644
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:43,160
Speaker 1: Well, no, and that wouldn't explain that black eye, because

645
00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:46,319
Speaker 1: if that happened in that timeframe, that the black eye

646
00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:48,640
Speaker 1: was far more recent than that. So I don't know.

647
00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:51,239
Speaker 1: Maybe he got into a rugby taggle with somebody else.

648
00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:54,680
Speaker 1: Let's see now. From President Donald Trump, he was asked

649
00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:57,919
Speaker 1: about Elon Musk's possible drug use.

650
00:39:58,239 --> 00:40:01,279
Speaker 5: Did you have any concerns about his drug use when

651
00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:02,080
Speaker 5: he was working for you?

652
00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:05,719
Speaker 10: I don't want to comment understrug news, I don't know.

653
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:08,719
Speaker 10: I don't know what his status is. I read an

654
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:10,880
Speaker 10: article on the New York Times. I thought it was Frankly,

655
00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:12,200
Speaker 10: it sounded very unfair to me.

656
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:15,200
Speaker 5: You said earlier today that mister Musk had a problem.

657
00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:17,839
Speaker 5: What did you mean by that? Did you misjudge him?

658
00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:18,319
Speaker 1: May?

659
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:20,440
Speaker 10: I don't want to talk about problems. I think that.

660
00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:24,000
Speaker 5: I think the United States had problems that.

661
00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:25,960
Speaker 10: If you look at the numbers day, the numbers were.

662
00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:30,960
Speaker 1: Unbelievable, Gab. This clash was inevitable in many ways, and

663
00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:35,759
Speaker 1: Elon Musker made a major major miscalculation here. I don't

664
00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:38,600
Speaker 1: know if he was on something. I suspect it possibly was.

665
00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:43,360
Speaker 1: When he was tweeting some of that reckless, crazy retoric.

666
00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:46,920
Speaker 1: He's gone back and deleted most of it. But he

667
00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:50,320
Speaker 1: thought perhaps being the world's richest man meant that he

668
00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:52,800
Speaker 1: could be the world's most powerful man, and he is

669
00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:55,880
Speaker 1: not that, And he found out the hard way that

670
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:57,640
Speaker 1: Donald Trump is potus.

671
00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:00,960
Speaker 12: Isn't it interesting because so how long were we hearing

672
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:03,680
Speaker 12: from Democrats in the mainstream media they were so concerned

673
00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:07,560
Speaker 12: about Elon Musk's influence over Donald Trump. And Donald Trump

674
00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:10,160
Speaker 12: is showing that he really didn't have much at all.

675
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:13,240
Speaker 12: And Donald Trump is the most powerful person in America,

676
00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:16,240
Speaker 12: not Elon Musk. But you're right, reader, I think Elon

677
00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:19,360
Speaker 12: has realized he made a massive mistake. He has deleted

678
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:23,399
Speaker 12: that bombshelled sweet that was absolutely ridiculous, linking Donald Trump

679
00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:26,080
Speaker 12: to the Epstein files. He's deleted that. And he's not

680
00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:29,600
Speaker 12: only deleted that, he's now starting to show that he

681
00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:33,200
Speaker 12: is groveling because he is now resharing on his x

682
00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:36,880
Speaker 12: feed posts that Donald Trump has made in response to

683
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:39,200
Speaker 12: what is going on in Los Angeles at the moment.

684
00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:43,120
Speaker 12: So look, they are both patriots, and Elon Musk is

685
00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:47,640
Speaker 12: supporting Donald Trump publicly once again over Donald trump support

686
00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:51,000
Speaker 12: for what is unfolding in Los Angeles and both absolutely

687
00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:54,280
Speaker 12: tearing apart Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass because they cannot

688
00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:58,680
Speaker 12: handle cannot show that they have any control over what

689
00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:01,759
Speaker 12: is unfolding with his Vibe protest. But as you say,

690
00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:03,920
Speaker 12: you know, Elon Musk has made a mistake. I think

691
00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:06,080
Speaker 12: he's realized that, and I think he's quickly trying to

692
00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:09,160
Speaker 12: patch things up. Let's see how forgiving Donald Trump is.

693
00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:11,200
Speaker 12: But I think many Americans would like to see them

694
00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:12,760
Speaker 12: working together again.

695
00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:16,919
Speaker 1: Well, yes, for the good of the country, you would

696
00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:20,040
Speaker 1: like to see that. But he's got to know his place.

697
00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:23,600
Speaker 1: He can't have another episode like that. And you're right.

698
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:29,759
Speaker 1: I've heard some absolutely crazy commentary today from some you know,

699
00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:32,920
Speaker 1: veteran pundits saying, some of the trouble in LA it's

700
00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:35,800
Speaker 1: not a coincidence that it started when Elon Musk and

701
00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:39,480
Speaker 1: Donald Trump have fallen out, as if that has anything

702
00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:41,279
Speaker 1: to do with it. I don't know what planet some

703
00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:46,520
Speaker 1: of these analysts are on. But now decorated gymnast Simone

704
00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:50,680
Speaker 1: Biles has clashed with women's sports campaigner Riley Gains on X.

705
00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:55,040
Speaker 1: You posted something quite nasty, writing you're truly sick all

706
00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:58,000
Speaker 1: of this campaigning because you lost a race, straight up,

707
00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:01,560
Speaker 1: saul loser, You should be uplifting the trans community and

708
00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:05,480
Speaker 1: perhaps finding a way to make sports inclusive, or creating

709
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:08,919
Speaker 1: a new avenue where trans feels safe in sports, maybe

710
00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:13,719
Speaker 1: a transgender category in all sports. But instead you bully them.

711
00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:16,840
Speaker 1: One thing for sure is no one in sports is

712
00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:20,759
Speaker 1: safe with you around bully someone your own size, which

713
00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:25,719
Speaker 1: would ironically be a male gap. Nasty, nasty and low.

714
00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:30,720
Speaker 1: And I've got to say Files has been roundly criticized

715
00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:34,560
Speaker 1: here because Ralegh Gains not only was she beaten by

716
00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:37,360
Speaker 1: a man, but she has worked tirelessly ever since to

717
00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:41,840
Speaker 1: protect girls and women from men taking over their sport.

718
00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:43,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, she does.

719
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:45,319
Speaker 12: But there's a lot of support for Raley Gains here,

720
00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:47,239
Speaker 12: and this is one of the biggest stories in the

721
00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:51,480
Speaker 12: US right now. And someone Files wrote that horrible tweet

722
00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:53,600
Speaker 12: when Raley Gains was called out that there was a

723
00:43:53,640 --> 00:43:57,839
Speaker 12: biological male competing in its softball tournament and where else

724
00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:03,680
Speaker 12: but Minnesota tampon tim country. But look, Riley Gaines has

725
00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:07,920
Speaker 12: hit back at Simon Barles' comments, and she's brought in

726
00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:11,080
Speaker 12: or she's brought up rather Larry Nasa, of course, the

727
00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:15,879
Speaker 12: convicted pedophile who was convicted for assaulting hundreds of young girls.

728
00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:18,359
Speaker 12: Now read you exactly what she said. She wrote all

729
00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:21,480
Speaker 12: the horrific sexual abuse at Simone Bile's witness and spoke

730
00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:25,239
Speaker 12: out against caused by one man, yet believes women should

731
00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:27,520
Speaker 12: be forced to strip naked in front of men to

732
00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:30,320
Speaker 12: validate the man's feelings. You know how many gold medals

733
00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:33,160
Speaker 12: you'd have if your inclusive dream came true?

734
00:44:33,719 --> 00:44:33,959
Speaker 1: Zero?

735
00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:37,600
Speaker 12: Now, Riley Gaines also clarified her position that she absolutely

736
00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:40,759
Speaker 12: hopes that this convicted pedophile, Larry Nasa, spends the rest

737
00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:43,279
Speaker 12: of his life rotting away in prison. But at the

738
00:44:43,360 --> 00:44:47,080
Speaker 12: same time, men do not belong in women's sports, and

739
00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:49,920
Speaker 12: female athletes continue to be failed by a system that

740
00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:53,680
Speaker 12: protects men at the expense of women safety. And look,

741
00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:56,600
Speaker 12: she's absolutely right, and we're just seeing that support for

742
00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:57,880
Speaker 12: Riley Gaines at the moment.

743
00:45:00,440 --> 00:45:03,480
Speaker 1: Now, I wanted to get your reaction to the IDF

744
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:09,239
Speaker 1: boarding Greta Thunberg's so called freedom Yachta. What did you

745
00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:13,040
Speaker 1: think of this little expedition by Greta Thumberg. Did she

746
00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:16,640
Speaker 1: achiever aims? I mean, she's certainly got a lot of

747
00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:22,040
Speaker 1: international attention, which is what I guess she's really after.

748
00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:24,560
Speaker 1: She's in the business of attention seeking.

749
00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:29,160
Speaker 12: This pr stunt of hers has spectacularly failed. It was

750
00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:33,359
Speaker 12: always going to I mean, this narcissist Greta Thunberg, who

751
00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:37,560
Speaker 12: has spent so many years being so hysterical about climate change,

752
00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:41,919
Speaker 12: and now she's showing support for her muss on this ship,

753
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:46,160
Speaker 12: which was absolutely ridiculous. She was bringing in barely any

754
00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:48,800
Speaker 12: aid to Gaza, thinking that she was going to be

755
00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:52,239
Speaker 12: some hero. She was going and doing CNN crosses and

756
00:45:52,400 --> 00:45:56,840
Speaker 12: live streaming it. And even before Israeli authorities took control

757
00:45:57,000 --> 00:45:59,440
Speaker 12: of this ship, she even recorded a video saying that

758
00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:03,720
Speaker 12: she had been kidnapped by Israeli authorities. If anything happens

759
00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:05,759
Speaker 12: to her, it's because she's been kidnapped.

760
00:46:05,840 --> 00:46:06,000
Speaker 8: You know.

761
00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:09,480
Speaker 12: She has just become such a laughing stock if she

762
00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:12,800
Speaker 12: wasn't already, and it's brilliant. We have heard from Israeli

763
00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:17,239
Speaker 12: officials that were reacting to this and keeping us all

764
00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:20,920
Speaker 12: in the loop pretty much instantly. They clarified that all

765
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:24,560
Speaker 12: the passengers and the celebrities on board the selfie yacht

766
00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:27,880
Speaker 12: are of course safe, unharmed, and they were provided with

767
00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:32,560
Speaker 12: sandwiches and water and selfie is well and truly over.

768
00:46:32,719 --> 00:46:35,120
Speaker 12: But just to put it into perspective, how much aid

769
00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:37,080
Speaker 12: they were actually carrying, and it was less than a

770
00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:41,279
Speaker 12: single truckload of aid. And just for some perspective, more

771
00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:44,800
Speaker 12: than twelve hundred AID trucks have entered Gaza from Israel

772
00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:49,160
Speaker 12: within the past two weeks. Congratulations go to Thunberg. That

773
00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:53,080
Speaker 12: has just been a spectacle for us all to laugh at.

774
00:46:53,760 --> 00:46:55,799
Speaker 12: And she has completely foiled. She's on her way back

775
00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:57,279
Speaker 12: to Israel and then she'd be going home.

776
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:02,320
Speaker 1: I do like that term selfie yacht though. That's something

777
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:05,840
Speaker 1: new that we can have fun with. Now I've got

778
00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:09,080
Speaker 1: to ask you also about Hugh Jackman and Deborah Leaf Furness.

779
00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:11,600
Speaker 1: They were the Golden couple for so many years. Their

780
00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:17,280
Speaker 1: divorce is getting increasingly ugly. They've begun splitting up their assets,

781
00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:21,400
Speaker 1: including their real estate assets thirty six million dollar apartment

782
00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:26,320
Speaker 1: in Manhattan, gab. There's even talk that Deborah Leaf Furness

783
00:47:26,480 --> 00:47:30,200
Speaker 1: might do a tell all book. Oh wow, this could

784
00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:35,800
Speaker 1: really blow up Hugh Jackman's good boy, well, golden boy images.

785
00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:38,279
Speaker 1: He's been always known as this mister nice guy.

786
00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:42,040
Speaker 12: Absolutely well, that would be an interesting read for sure,

787
00:47:42,120 --> 00:47:44,600
Speaker 12: but as you say there right now, splitting up their assets,

788
00:47:44,640 --> 00:47:47,600
Speaker 12: they've got two hundred and fifty million dollars, that's what

789
00:47:47,880 --> 00:47:49,879
Speaker 12: that is their fortune that they have to work out.

790
00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:52,600
Speaker 12: So this divorce is probably going to get pretty messy,

791
00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:56,640
Speaker 12: as you say. That thirty six million dollar penthouse apartment

792
00:47:56,760 --> 00:47:59,520
Speaker 12: in New York City. It's in the Chelsea District. Beautiful

793
00:47:59,640 --> 00:48:03,440
Speaker 12: area it's got. It's a three bedroom place, five thousand

794
00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:06,279
Speaker 12: square feet. It looks out to the Hudson River. The

795
00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:10,800
Speaker 12: apartment features an elevator entrance, a library that convert to

796
00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:13,840
Speaker 12: a fourth bedroom that wants to a chef's kitchen with

797
00:48:13,880 --> 00:48:17,319
Speaker 12: a breakfast bar. You know, it certainly looks pretty fantastic.

798
00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:21,040
Speaker 12: But they have some places all over the world, not

799
00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:23,839
Speaker 12: just in the United States, here in Australia as well

800
00:48:24,040 --> 00:48:26,879
Speaker 12: and the UK. So I think we'll be seeing more

801
00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:30,680
Speaker 12: reports as they work out how to divide up their fortune.

802
00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:36,480
Speaker 1: Yes, and apparently Hugh Jackman is now living in that

803
00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:40,880
Speaker 1: apartment with his new lady who he perhaps was seeing

804
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:45,279
Speaker 1: for many many years throughout his marriage, allegedly allegedly a

805
00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:48,840
Speaker 1: gab power. Pleasure to speak to you tonight, Thanks for

806
00:48:48,960 --> 00:48:52,759
Speaker 1: your time, and that's all. The time we have, I'll

807
00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:56,480
Speaker 1: see you tomorrow night at eleven up. Next it's Newsnight

808
00:49:00,520 --> 00:49:00,800
Speaker 3: Six
