00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:07,280
Speaker 1: On Scyne Lives Australia. This is the Wider Penalty Show.

2
00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:11,280
Speaker 2: Good evening and welcome to the Riata Paney Show.

Speaker 3: at risk of being dumped by Nike after questionable social

5
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:19,320
Speaker 3: media posts.

6
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:19,959
Speaker 2: And while we.

Speaker 3: expert Richard Ralph Smith will tell us the three fatal

9
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:32,200
Speaker 3: errors the Liberals made in their election advertising. Kosher Gator

10
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:35,000
Speaker 3: will have the latest from the US, and later in

11
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:36,440
Speaker 3: the hour They're Always Amusing.

12
00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:39,680
Speaker 2: Alex Stein will tell us why he was attacked.

13
00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:44,839
Speaker 3: By lgbt QIA activists and talking about Left is losing it.

14
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:47,720
Speaker 2: Tonight's segment comes with a warning.

15
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:52,880
Speaker 4: It felt so I don't know electric and yet still

16
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:53,680
Speaker 4: so natural.

17
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:57,720
Speaker 3: But first, the Prime Minister has a rubbish cause from

18
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:01,360
Speaker 3: the Trump administration to lift astra is defense spending to

19
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:04,960
Speaker 3: three point five percent of GDP from the current two percent.

20
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 3: After US Defense Secretary Pete Hegxed made the demand to

21
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:13,840
Speaker 3: Defense Minister Richard Miles during a meeting at the Shangri

22
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 3: La Security Dialogue in Singapore. Here's what the PM had

23
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 3: to say, earlier today.

24
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:24,680
Speaker 5: We determine our defense policy. Here where a sovereign nation

25
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:30,760
Speaker 5: that need to have pride in our sovereignty and in

26
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:36,039
Speaker 5: our capacity to make decisions in our national interest, in

27
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 5: our national interest, that is what we will do.

28
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 3: Former Army Chief Peter Leahy has warned that the government's

29
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 3: insistence on keeping defense spending low is an abrogation of

30
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 3: the primary responsibility of our elected representatives to provide for

31
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 3: the defense and security of the nation and the safety

32
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 3: of our servicemen and women.

33
00:01:57,800 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 2: Those who wear.

34
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 3: Australia's uniform place great trust in those who task and

35
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 3: equip them. This trust is not being honored. This comes

36
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 3: after close ally Japan doubled its defense budget amid expectations

37
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 3: that China will only get more aggressive, with Pete Hegsett

38
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 3: warning that a Chinese attack on Taiwan could be imminent.

39
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:21,679
Speaker 2: Joining me now for more on this.

40
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 3: As Deputy Executive Director of the Institute of Public Affairs,

41
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:28,840
Speaker 3: Daniel Ward Dan, just take a look at what's happening

42
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 3: with the NATO countries. They have increased their spending as

43
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 3: Trump asked them to do, demanded that they do. Can

44
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 3: Australia really afford to be this reckless and recalcitrant.

45
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,400
Speaker 6: Well, I think you know it's fair enough for the

46
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 6: Prime Minister to say that we'll decide what our own

47
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 6: defense policy is based on our own circumstances. But the

48
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:55,240
Speaker 6: case for Australia to increase our defense spending is not

49
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,920
Speaker 6: predicated necessarily in what the US is asking us to do,

50
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 6: but because we need to do it anyway, and we

51
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 6: should have been doing this a long time ago. Our

52
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 6: spending has been too low for too long, and the

53
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:09,680
Speaker 6: money that we have allocated toward defense and our national

54
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:13,360
Speaker 6: security has not been spent in an effective manner. We

55
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 6: are hopelessly unprepared for the challenges that we face in

56
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 6: our region and around the world, and this is only

57
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 6: set to get worse unless there is a dramatic and

58
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:27,680
Speaker 6: urgent change to how we approach our defense policy. Obviously

59
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 6: closely related to this reader, it's not just our national

60
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 6: defense but also our energy security, and for as long

61
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 6: as we're committed to policies like net zero, our capacity

62
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 6: to have our own sovereign manufacturing capabilities is going to

63
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 6: be undermined. So this is caused not just to increase

64
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 6: our defense spending, but to have a complete rethink about

65
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 6: our energy policy as well.

66
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,200
Speaker 3: And it's all good and well for the Prime Minister

67
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 3: to talk tough about sovereignty, But where was that tough

68
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 3: talk Dan when Chinese warships were doing their little exercises

69
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:08,880
Speaker 3: unannounced close to the Australian border. I mean, I just

70
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 3: find it very inconsistent from the Prime Minister to talk

71
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,840
Speaker 3: tough when a close ally wants us to increase our

72
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:21,360
Speaker 3: defense spending, but he goes missing when the aggressive when

73
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 3: the aggressive attitude is coming from China.

74
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 6: Well, that's exactly right, and it's not just issues pertaining

75
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 6: to China, as you rightly identify, but also the number

76
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 6: of international agreements which we are signed up to or

77
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,040
Speaker 6: are due to sign up to, for example, in relation

78
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:42,680
Speaker 6: to future pandemics. I haven't heard the Prime Minister talk

79
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 6: about our national sovereignty in relation to the World Health Organization.

80
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,480
Speaker 6: Nor have I heard him talk about national sovereignty as

81
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,280
Speaker 6: it relates to climate change commitments. For example, the Paris

82
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 6: Climate Agreement is handing over a massive amount of power

83
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 6: to unelected international bureaucrats. So you're quite right to point

84
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 6: out that the Prime Minister is being very selective when

85
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:07,159
Speaker 6: he discuss it discusses issues relating to our political and

86
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 6: national sovereignty.

87
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 3: Now, Western Australian Senator Drenda Cox, who was elected as

88
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:17,600
Speaker 3: a member of the Greens not too long ago, has

89
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:21,480
Speaker 3: made a shocked affection to the Labor Party, making this

90
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,920
Speaker 3: announcement alongside the Prime Minister just yesterday Today.

91
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,359
Speaker 7: I'm resigning from the Australian Greens to join the Labor

92
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:30,479
Speaker 7: Party to sit as a later senator as part of

93
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 7: the Albanese government.

94
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 2: It is not a decision I've taken lightly. Now.

95
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 3: This is a member of parliament who was hit with

96
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:42,720
Speaker 3: workplace misconduct and bullying allegations back in October last year,

97
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:47,480
Speaker 3: with twenty of her staff reportedly quitting their jobs.

98
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 2: In a period of about three years.

99
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 3: But I've got to ask you, Dan, put aside the

100
00:05:55,000 --> 00:06:00,279
Speaker 3: personalities here. She was elected as a Greens member, but

101
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 3: people voted for the Greens and she was.

102
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:04,039
Speaker 2: There to represent them.

103
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:08,040
Speaker 3: Is it okay for her to be defecting within a

104
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:11,440
Speaker 3: matter of weeks or she should be standing down and

105
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:16,600
Speaker 3: the Greens select someone else to represent them.

106
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think so, reader. I think Australian's pretty sick

107
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 6: and tired of this. I haven't looked at what her

108
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 6: personal vote was, how many below the line votes she

109
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 6: got in the Senate, but I can't imagine it was

110
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,359
Speaker 6: enough anywhere near enough to get her own quota to

111
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 6: get in. So you're right that she was elected as

112
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,920
Speaker 6: a Greens member, not as a member of the Labor Party.

113
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:40,800
Speaker 6: And to do this so soon after the election, I

114
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:44,160
Speaker 6: think suggests that perhaps something was in play beforehand. I

115
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 6: don't know, but it seems that it's unlikely that this

116
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,839
Speaker 6: kind of transition will take place in such a short

117
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 6: space of time. The other point that I would make

118
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 6: I watched Anthony Abernice's press conference today in Perth and

119
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,839
Speaker 6: it was interesting and revealing what he said. He said

120
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 6: that if you're serious about social change in Australia, then

121
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 6: you need to support the Labor Party. Now, what this

122
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 6: suggests to me to mean is that Labour's social values

123
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,000
Speaker 6: are the social values of the Greens. They're the social

124
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 6: values of treaty of truth telling, of reparations payments. I

125
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 6: believe that they will proceed with a voice to Parliament,

126
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 6: as Penny Wong said they would do prior to the

127
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:27,239
Speaker 6: last federal election, and I think it's time for Labor

128
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 6: just to be honest with the Australian people and have

129
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:32,200
Speaker 6: a formal coalition agreement with the Greens. If they're just

130
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,240
Speaker 6: going to adopt Green's members as part of their party,

131
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,640
Speaker 6: then they should do it in an open and transparent manner.

132
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 3: Well, they're in a coalition with the Greens, Let's be honest.

133
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:46,680
Speaker 3: The Greens and Labor depend on each other and Labour

134
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 3: wouldn't be where they are without the Greens support. So

135
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 3: whether it's an official coalition agreement as the Libs and

136
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 3: Nets have or an unofficial one like Labor and Greens,

137
00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 3: it works pretty much in the same way.

138
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 2: Let's talk about Victoria.

139
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 3: Former Premier Jeff Kenned has made another some would say

140
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:09,720
Speaker 3: desperate attempt to try to save John Pursudo, the former

141
00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:14,239
Speaker 3: opposition leader, pend a letter to the Victorian Liberal Party's

142
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 3: Administrative Committee begging them to pay the entire two point

143
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 3: three million debt that mister Pursudo now owes Liberal MP

144
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:27,320
Speaker 3: Moor Deeming. If he doesn't come across with his money,

145
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 3: if he doesn't find it somewhere dan he faces bankruptcy,

146
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:34,920
Speaker 3: which means it will step down from parliament. Jeff Kenned argues,

147
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 3: not supporting the pursuito family now denies the fundamental values

148
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 3: the party was founded upon. It is wrong to ask

149
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 3: him to foot the bills to bankrupt him and his family,

150
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 3: wrong to ask him to borrow money from the capital

151
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 3: funds we might have at our disposal. I implore you

152
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:56,199
Speaker 3: to act decisively. We must put the issue to bed quickly.

153
00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:01,079
Speaker 3: Remember money can always be replaced, a change of government cannot.

154
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 2: I've got a lot of thoughts on.

155
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:08,640
Speaker 3: This one, Dad, but I'm interested in yours. My first

156
00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:13,200
Speaker 3: thought though, is has Jeff forgotten who the victim here is.

157
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,040
Speaker 3: It's Moira Deeming, it is not John Persudo.

158
00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:19,480
Speaker 8: Yeah.

159
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:21,000
Speaker 6: Look, I mean I have a lot of respect for

160
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:24,320
Speaker 6: Jeff Kenned and everything he's done for Victoria, but I'm

161
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 6: not sure this is quite the right way to go.

162
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,760
Speaker 6: You know, Moira Deeming is entitled to seek compensation as

163
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,080
Speaker 6: per the court order. You know, she's well within her

164
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:36,200
Speaker 6: rights to do that. And also the Liberal Party was

165
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 6: founded on the value of freedom of speech, which is

166
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:43,720
Speaker 6: what Moyra was exercising. And she was really, you know,

167
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 6: the victim of what happened to her and went through

168
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,600
Speaker 6: that legal process. So you know, this has been a

169
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,800
Speaker 6: disaster for the Victorian Liberal Party from the very beginning,

170
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 6: and I think it really shows what happens when firstly

171
00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 6: you lose sight of what your values are, secondly when

172
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 6: you become intimidated by your political opponents. It was very

173
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 6: clear from the court documents that one of the reasons

174
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:11,280
Speaker 6: why the decision was taken to go after more redeeming

175
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 6: was because of concerns that Daniel Andrews was going to

176
00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 6: exploit it for political purposes, as of course he would,

177
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,960
Speaker 6: being a very effective political operator. But look, look what's

178
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:23,559
Speaker 6: happened now. I mean, this all happened because they didn't

179
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 6: stand up to Daniel Andrews and the Labor government. So look,

180
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 6: they just need to draw a line under this and

181
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 6: try to get clean air as they head to the

182
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 6: next election in November of next year.

183
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 3: They showed such poor political judgment in this case. It

184
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 3: was actually an opportunity for them to lay a glove

185
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:46,880
Speaker 3: on Dan Andrews. And that's fairly rare during Dan Andrews's

186
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:50,600
Speaker 3: political career that the Libs would hurt him any way.

187
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 3: But they had an opportunity there because this is an

188
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:56,080
Speaker 3: eighty twenty issue, and they decided to side with the

189
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:59,559
Speaker 3: twenty percent, along with Labor and the Greens just idiotic

190
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 3: in the extreme. I want to ask you about former

191
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 3: Australian of the Year Grace Tame. She has come under

192
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:10,760
Speaker 3: five for her anti Israel social media content, which has

193
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 3: now put her partnership with Nike at risk. The megasports

194
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 3: brand has said via a spokeswoman, Nike does not stand

195
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 3: for any form of discrimination, including anti Semitism. We take

196
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:27,640
Speaker 3: this matter very seriously and are in touch with Grace's

197
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:29,760
Speaker 3: team to understand the matter further.

198
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:30,679
Speaker 9: Now.

199
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:34,480
Speaker 3: The Australian has done some great reports on this story.

200
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:39,920
Speaker 3: They reported that Tame reposted a statement from Palestinian writer

201
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:43,880
Speaker 3: Mohammed el Kurd in which she appeared to condone the

202
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 3: murder of two Israeli embassy officials in Washington and angrily

203
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 3: attacked journalists who reported that the slayings were an act

204
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 3: of anti Semitism.

205
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 2: Yes, the former.

206
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:58,319
Speaker 3: Australian of the Year is a endorsement of El Kurd

207
00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 3: and the message she published last week is deeply troubling.

208
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:04,079
Speaker 2: He wrote.

209
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 3: The media class is scrambling to reframe the shooting that

210
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:12,960
Speaker 3: targeted to Israeli's state officials as a random anti Semitic attack.

211
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:16,840
Speaker 3: Tame reposted this to her two hundred and sixty thousand followers,

212
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:21,319
Speaker 3: even though it was undeniably and by the alleged shooter's

213
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:26,600
Speaker 3: own admission, a response to the ongoing Israeli assault on Gaza,

214
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:30,160
Speaker 3: which killed one hundred and seven Palestinians in the last

215
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:35,320
Speaker 3: twenty four hours alone. Dan, it's astonishing to me that

216
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:40,680
Speaker 3: she would endorse share this in any way back a

217
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,559
Speaker 3: position that is so extreme.

218
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:47,080
Speaker 9: Yeah.

219
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:50,160
Speaker 6: Well, the first thing is good on Nike for doing this.

220
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:53,840
Speaker 6: I mean, quite often we rightfully call out big businesses

221
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 6: for dividing us and doing the wrong thing. Well, Nike

222
00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 6: is at least, you know, standing up and is asking

223
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 6: for an explanation from Grace Tame, and that's the right

224
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:04,720
Speaker 6: thing for them to do. I think it's a shame

225
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 6: for Grace Tame because she has rightly been acknowledged for

226
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 6: the work that she's done in advocating for and raising

227
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 6: the profile of victims of domestic violence and abuse, and

228
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 6: that's a very important cause. But for her to go

229
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:21,680
Speaker 6: down the road of political activism I think has really

230
00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:25,400
Speaker 6: let down the important work that she did. Of course,

231
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:29,680
Speaker 6: she famously wore the f Murdoch t shirt when she

232
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:32,960
Speaker 6: was meeting with the Prime Minister some time ago and

233
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 6: has a history of political activism. Now, if she wants

234
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:36,080
Speaker 6: to do.

235
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:36,719
Speaker 7: That, that's up to her.

236
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:38,439
Speaker 6: I mean, it's entirely up to Grace Tame if she

237
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:40,720
Speaker 6: wants to go down that road. But I don't think

238
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 6: you can at one time be an advocate for a

239
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,960
Speaker 6: very important cause and at the same time also see

240
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:49,800
Speaker 6: yourself as a political advocate for what are very divisive

241
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:53,120
Speaker 6: cultural issues as well.

242
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:56,600
Speaker 3: Yes, indeed, and I think as Australian of the Year

243
00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:59,680
Speaker 3: she's not in that role anymore. But I think you

244
00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 3: have to be a political you have to be a

245
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:07,200
Speaker 3: unifying figure. You can't be a divisive activist. And we've

246
00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:12,439
Speaker 3: too often put given that on our two divisive activists.

247
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,599
Speaker 3: It started well before Grace Tame, Dan Wild, thank you

248
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 3: so much for your time tonight, joining me now to

249
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:24,360
Speaker 3: discuss how the Coalition got its advertising campaign so terribly wrong.

250
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 2: Is DPR and.

251
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 3: Co advertising co founder Richard Ralph Smith. Richard, you've come

252
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:35,000
Speaker 3: up with three key areas the Coalition failed with its

253
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:36,119
Speaker 3: election messaging.

254
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:36,920
Speaker 2: Take us through it.

255
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 10: Yeah, okay, Well, in marketing terms, we can speak brand,

256
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 10: product and retail, and so if you think about brand.

257
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:49,400
Speaker 10: That's a long term, strategic investment in what you stand for.

258
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 10: At the other end of the spectrum, you've got retail,

259
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 10: which is intended to be a short term, tactical expenditure

260
00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 10: designed to drive immediate sales. What the Liberal Party did

261
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 10: is they had all their attention over here and ignored

262
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 10: their brand almost entirely.

263
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:10,040
Speaker 3: So you're saying the substance wasn't there. They actually didn't

264
00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:13,040
Speaker 3: have the policies to sell. It wasn't the selling that

265
00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 3: they failed it. It was the stuff that matters. They

266
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 3: are what they stand.

267
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,400
Speaker 10: For exactly even above the policy level, the values and

268
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:23,520
Speaker 10: the principles that give rise to the policies in the

269
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 10: first place. And that's something you don't like. John Howard

270
00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 10: used to say, you don't fatten a pig on market day,

271
00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 10: You've got to do that years in advance. And so

272
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:36,240
Speaker 10: Australians now no one is buying the Liberal brand. The

273
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 10: reason they're not buying the Liberal brand is that nobody's selling.

274
00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:39,760
Speaker 11: It, you know.

275
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 3: And that is what we've been saying on Sky News,

276
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 3: one of the few media outlets who's been pointing out

277
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:50,960
Speaker 3: that the Liberals, well since the Voice where they had

278
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,240
Speaker 3: the Trump for they did stand for something and articulated

279
00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:57,520
Speaker 3: that position very well. They haven't stood for anything. Where

280
00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:01,320
Speaker 3: is the policy differentiation? Where are they taking it up

281
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 3: to labor and giving the electro to clear choice and

282
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:06,040
Speaker 3: saying this is who we are what we stand for.

283
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 3: And you're right, it's too late to do it during

284
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:11,160
Speaker 3: an election campaign. You need to have come to that

285
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 3: position organically throughout. You can't just show up and say

286
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 3: we are this.

287
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 10: You have to drive it and you have to believe

288
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:24,000
Speaker 10: in it. And even at the highest brand level that

289
00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:27,479
Speaker 10: they really spoke about was their line for the election campaign,

290
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 10: Let's get Australia back on track. Yeah, okay, so what's

291
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 10: the track?

292
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:33,920
Speaker 8: Where does it lead?

293
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:34,600
Speaker 9: Yeah?

294
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,880
Speaker 3: It's a gym that you included net zero that would

295
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:43,800
Speaker 3: not even deviate on a policy areas as harmful to

296
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 3: their brand as net zero and I think they still

297
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:49,560
Speaker 3: understand that now. Talking about social media, because so many

298
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 3: now consume their news consumed information via social media, I've

299
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:58,160
Speaker 3: got to say Labour's campaign wasn't particularly great, but the

300
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 3: Coalition seemed to particularly str.

301
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 2: In that space.

302
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:06,919
Speaker 3: How can they reach younger voters effectively through social media?

303
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:11,919
Speaker 10: Well, the important thing is don't try so hard to

304
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:15,160
Speaker 10: fit into your environment that you change who you are.

305
00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:19,080
Speaker 10: It really comes back again to being confident about who

306
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 10: you are and saying these are our principles and then

307
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,720
Speaker 10: finding a way to express it in a way that's

308
00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:28,119
Speaker 10: new and true for young people. Trying to find a

309
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:32,000
Speaker 10: way to really articulate that without trashing your brand by

310
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:35,639
Speaker 10: doing things such as that ridiculous disk track which was

311
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 10: entirely debranding.

312
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:40,280
Speaker 3: For the Liberals, Yeah, that was a little bit cringe

313
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:45,880
Speaker 3: labor though landslide victory, so they can take all the plauded.

314
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 3: What did they do well or were they just lucky

315
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 3: to have really little opposition at this election?

316
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,439
Speaker 10: I think in large part it is the latter. This

317
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:58,960
Speaker 10: was not a contest of high minded ideals expressed brilliantly

318
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:04,840
Speaker 10: by two top notch opponents. They didn't do anything particularly

319
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,440
Speaker 10: well from a brand point of view. What they did

320
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:11,879
Speaker 10: do is define Peter Dutton on their terms very very well,

321
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:17,280
Speaker 10: and they had the most powerful negative line of the campaign,

322
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,720
Speaker 10: which was he cuts you pay. And they managed to

323
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:24,560
Speaker 10: again frame nuclear in their own terms, making up their

324
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,960
Speaker 10: own numbers, convincing people of those numbers and saying this

325
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:29,560
Speaker 10: is what is going to cost six.

326
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:34,359
Speaker 3: Negative campaigns are enormously effective. People say they don't like it,

327
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:37,400
Speaker 3: that don't like when politicians or political parties go negative,

328
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:41,080
Speaker 3: but the proof is there that they work, and that's

329
00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:43,880
Speaker 3: why labor go to these sorts of campaigns, whether it's

330
00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 3: many scale, nuclear or cuts.

331
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:49,919
Speaker 10: They work better for the incumbent than they do for

332
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:54,680
Speaker 10: the opposition. And in this situation, you know, the environment

333
00:18:54,920 --> 00:19:00,520
Speaker 10: was that we had a really uncertain geostrategic ron happening.

334
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 10: We had you know, China conducting live fire exercises three

335
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:07,359
Speaker 10: hundred k's off the coach of Sydney. We had Trump

336
00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 10: firing off tariffs every which way. People were feeling nervous

337
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 10: and sort of leaning towards the incumbent, and that would

338
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:21,879
Speaker 10: have required the liberals to define something really really compelling

339
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,760
Speaker 10: based on liberal values to do it. It was an

340
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,679
Speaker 10: uphill battle in the first place, yes, but they just

341
00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:30,359
Speaker 10: couldn't do it. I think they were sort of this

342
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:34,359
Speaker 10: time late last year, they were in the lead in

343
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,359
Speaker 10: terms of the polls, and also Peter Dutton's preferred prime

344
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:39,560
Speaker 10: minister rating was in a really really good space. He

345
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 10: looked like a leader. Late last year it was as

346
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:46,120
Speaker 10: if they were defending a lead that didn't really.

347
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:47,320
Speaker 2: Exist, and I think they got.

348
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:50,240
Speaker 10: Failed to deliver on a brand plan.

349
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,119
Speaker 3: They were playing like they were in front, and I

350
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:56,439
Speaker 3: think that we're getting some poor polling data that they

351
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,439
Speaker 3: were relying on and ignoring everything else around them.

352
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:01,480
Speaker 2: Richard Ralph Smith, thank you so much for your time tonight.

353
00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:02,199
Speaker 9: All right, thank you.

354
00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:03,840
Speaker 2: Still to come.

355
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 3: Lefties a losing it? Plus will we see record amounts.

356
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,920
Speaker 2: Of corporate virtue signaling during Pride Month?

357
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:24,240
Speaker 3: Kosher Gator has the details. You're watching the Reader Panny

358
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,640
Speaker 3: Show and it's time for Lefty's Losing It. I don't

359
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:30,400
Speaker 3: know how to apologize for what I'm about to show you,

360
00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:33,520
Speaker 3: but just know this hurts me as much as it's

361
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:36,639
Speaker 3: going to hurt you. Let's have a look at trump

362
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:41,480
Speaker 3: deranged Rosie O'Donnell, who has fled the country because of potus,

363
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 3: but she has returned from Ireland to film this hot

364
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:47,160
Speaker 3: mess for Sex and the City spin off.

365
00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 2: Just like that, enough talking, let's just dive right in.

366
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:58,280
Speaker 4: It felt so I don't know electric and yet still

367
00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:02,520
Speaker 4: so natural. I never dreamed my first time could be

368
00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:03,560
Speaker 4: both those things.

369
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:04,920
Speaker 2: First time.

370
00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:09,920
Speaker 4: You were a virgin, Yes, I'm a nun.

371
00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:15,560
Speaker 3: Yes, that was Rosi o'donald playing a virgin none called

372
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:18,880
Speaker 3: Mary who ends up in bed with Miranda played by

373
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,960
Speaker 3: Cynthia and Nixon, the worst character on Sex and the City.

374
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:25,320
Speaker 3: I think you'll agree, and that show jumped the shark

375
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:27,160
Speaker 3: many many moons ago.

376
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,359
Speaker 2: But at least Rosi o'donald.

377
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:32,520
Speaker 3: And Cynthia Nixon could share their deranged hatred of Trump

378
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:38,680
Speaker 3: together in between takes. Both are ardent Trump haters and mothers.

379
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:40,119
Speaker 2: Of non binary or trans children.

380
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:46,120
Speaker 3: Remember Cynthia Nixon boasted about having her daughter's healthy breast removed.

381
00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 2: They call it top surgery. My hand had his.

382
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:58,800
Speaker 12: Top surgery, ass NYU a number of years ago. Please

383
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:04,359
Speaker 12: work pastic His surgeon was the best we could have imagined.

384
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:07,320
Speaker 2: It's time to check in with Joe Biden.

385
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:10,440
Speaker 3: The former president has his good days and he has

386
00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:11,800
Speaker 3: his bad days.

387
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 2: But every day is a delusional day. Listen to this.

388
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 1: And there's also been a lot of discussion recently about

389
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:21,960
Speaker 1: your mental and physical capabilities while you were in office.

390
00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 13: You can see that I'm mentally incompetent and I can't walk,

391
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:26,080
Speaker 13: and I can beat the.

392
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:27,720
Speaker 1: Hell out of both of them. Do you want to

393
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:31,240
Speaker 1: reply to any of those reports, and also to the

394
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:34,080
Speaker 1: fact that there are some Democrats who are now questioning

395
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,840
Speaker 1: whether you should have run for reelection in the first place.

396
00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:37,800
Speaker 2: Run against me that.

397
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:40,960
Speaker 4: Because I'd have beaten it.

398
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:42,440
Speaker 1: Do you have any regrets?

399
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 11: No, I don't know.

400
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 9: Your guests.

401
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:49,240
Speaker 3: Naylon Mask has had enough of his fellow billionaires talking trash.

402
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 2: Listen here as he gives Bill Gates.

403
00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:56,160
Speaker 3: An almighty spray after Gates made all sorts of unfounded

404
00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:57,920
Speaker 3: claims about us aid.

405
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:01,280
Speaker 2: He starts by calling Gates a liar.

406
00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 14: I know you've said that already I.

407
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:10,240
Speaker 7: Wanted and I'm just who does Biggates think he is

408
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,920
Speaker 7: to make comments about the welfare of children, given that

409
00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:17,680
Speaker 7: he is before quented Jeffrey Epstein, Okay.

410
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:17,840
Speaker 9: Well.

411
00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:22,480
Speaker 14: He's he's he said he regrets those.

412
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,200
Speaker 8: And he's he spent he spent a lot.

413
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:27,959
Speaker 14: He spent a lot of his own money on on

414
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:31,119
Speaker 14: philanthropy around the world over the years. My question to

415
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:34,160
Speaker 14: you is have you looked at the data to check

416
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:37,560
Speaker 14: if he might be right that the cuts to US

417
00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:40,680
Speaker 14: A I. D might cost millions of lives.

418
00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 7: Yes, I'd like him to preshure us any any evidence whatsoever.

419
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:50,480
Speaker 3: None whatsoever, And bono you know him from you two.

420
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 3: He was making the same bas claims on Joe Rogan,

421
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:56,920
Speaker 3: and Rogan was not having it.

422
00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:03,320
Speaker 15: Just recent report, it's not proven, but there's surveillance enough

423
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:07,439
Speaker 15: suggests three hundred thousand people have already died from just

424
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:11,520
Speaker 15: this cutoff, this hard cut of usaid.

425
00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:17,000
Speaker 16: The problem is, for sure, there have been a lot

426
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:21,240
Speaker 16: of organizations that do tremendous good all throughout the world. Also,

427
00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:24,560
Speaker 16: for sure it was a money laundering operation. For sure,

428
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:28,480
Speaker 16: there was no oversight. For sure, billions of dollars are missing.

429
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:32,240
Speaker 16: In fact, trillions that are unaccounted for that were sent

430
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:36,960
Speaker 16: off into various they don't even know where because there's

431
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:40,120
Speaker 16: no receipts. The way Elon must describe that, he said,

432
00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:42,840
Speaker 16: if any of this was done by a public company,

433
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:46,919
Speaker 16: the company would be delisted and the executives be in prison.

434
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:51,120
Speaker 16: But in the United States, this is a standard. When Biden

435
00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:54,800
Speaker 16: left office, when it was clear that Trump won, in

436
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:59,680
Speaker 16: the seventy three days, they spent ninety three billion dollars

437
00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:03,920
Speaker 16: from the the Department of Energy on just radical loans,

438
00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 16: just throwing money into places and there's no oversight.

439
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:13,040
Speaker 3: Well, folks, it's June, and that means it's Pride month,

440
00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:30,640
Speaker 3: and they started celebrating early in West Hollywood. Not sure

441
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 3: that's suitable for young kids in the audience there. But

442
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 3: it's not just the public nudity, it's the corporate virtue

443
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 3: signaling we're going to see in the coming weeks. Yes,

444
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:43,880
Speaker 3: a whole month of far left foolishness, but for some

445
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 3: it's never enough.

446
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:49,240
Speaker 2: Watch this Karen a whine about Target getting.

447
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:53,480
Speaker 3: Rid of their LGBTQIA plus plus display and replacing it

448
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 3: with a pro American one.

449
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:57,879
Speaker 17: Happy Pride Month. In my Target that used to have

450
00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:05,639
Speaker 17: the pride section, it's now all USA. Yay USA. And honestly,

451
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:07,520
Speaker 17: my dad serves the military, and I'd love to be

452
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:09,240
Speaker 17: really proud of this nation, but it's hard to be

453
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 17: proud of.

454
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:11,159
Speaker 2: It under Donald Trump.

455
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:13,399
Speaker 17: But hey, you know, while you're here, pick up a

456
00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 17: USA bikini, you know why not? Yeah, Target's really taken

457
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:24,920
Speaker 17: this anti DEI thing to another level.

458
00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:28,760
Speaker 3: Oh Dear God forbid anyone should have pride in their country.

459
00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:31,760
Speaker 3: I'm sure your granddad risked his life so Target could

460
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:34,840
Speaker 3: sell breastbinders to young girls.

461
00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:37,840
Speaker 2: Let's bring in Sky News contributor Kosher.

462
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:41,080
Speaker 3: Gaeta Kosher, there's been a cultural shift in the US,

463
00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:45,879
Speaker 3: It's undoubted. And are we going to see things like

464
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:49,480
Speaker 3: Pride Month marked differently from the corporate world.

465
00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 2: Are we going to have the same.

466
00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,960
Speaker 3: Sort of activism and enthusiasm as we have seen in

467
00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:55,320
Speaker 3: previous years.

468
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:56,080
Speaker 9: Seemingly not.

469
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,720
Speaker 11: It looks like we have finally broken the camel's back

470
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:01,959
Speaker 11: on this issue. It almost just send it as quickly

471
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:04,280
Speaker 11: blink and you missed it as it ascended just in

472
00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:06,320
Speaker 11: the last five years. And you see, you know, the

473
00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 11: Silicon Valley titans and the high finance people and cultural

474
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:12,879
Speaker 11: icons all coming out and endorsing Trump in this election.

475
00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:15,640
Speaker 9: Everything sort of trickles down from that, I think.

476
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:19,760
Speaker 11: And you haven't seen mass backlash or young people rioting

477
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,600
Speaker 11: and leaving their hypie Silicon Valley jobs or New York

478
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,040
Speaker 11: jobs or anything like that. And you don't see corporations

479
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:27,679
Speaker 11: putting the little black square, a little ratio square on

480
00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:30,679
Speaker 11: their LinkedIn profiles. So maybe we are past the worst.

481
00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 9: Dare I say?

482
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:33,719
Speaker 3: I think the corporates are seeing there is actually a

483
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:37,520
Speaker 3: price to pay, and it's probably a bit more clever

484
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:40,760
Speaker 3: to be a political and not alienate at least a

485
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:44,840
Speaker 3: portion of your customer basis significant portion and I think

486
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:51,240
Speaker 3: USAID really exposed just how much of this far left activism,

487
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:56,520
Speaker 3: this far left movement was funded unwittingly by tax payers.

488
00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:59,880
Speaker 3: It wasn't just some organic grassroots movement.

489
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:02,959
Speaker 11: That's been one of so many examples of just as

490
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:05,119
Speaker 11: much as we know what's going on in the culture,

491
00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:06,920
Speaker 11: there's so much more. And when you think you've got

492
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,360
Speaker 11: the whole picture, there's yet more that we don't know.

493
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:11,560
Speaker 11: And you say, idea, it was about fifty billion dollars

494
00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:13,640
Speaker 11: a year in spending, It's like a billion dollars a week.

495
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,480
Speaker 11: It's not a small amount, and even worse, as you say,

496
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:19,480
Speaker 11: because more than the money and the wastage financially, what

497
00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 11: it was doing domestically and all around the world. And

498
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:26,280
Speaker 11: it's completely been gutted. Ninety percent of contracts have been terminated. Yes,

499
00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:27,720
Speaker 11: it was challenged in a court. There are a few

500
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:30,639
Speaker 11: challenges still working its way up, but by and large

501
00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:34,960
Speaker 11: this organization has been fundamentally changed, and I think everybody

502
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:36,680
Speaker 11: is for the better, and maybe we can do something

503
00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:38,120
Speaker 11: without tax payer money. Yeap.

504
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:42,600
Speaker 3: People's eyes have been opened, even those of us who

505
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 3: are very engaged in this space. I was shocked by

506
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:49,600
Speaker 3: the money that was being spent taxpayers money all around

507
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:53,800
Speaker 3: the world pushing this far left activism.

508
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:56,560
Speaker 2: Bizarre use of taxpayers money.

509
00:28:57,040 --> 00:29:00,280
Speaker 3: And whilst we're talking about usiidal On mass the man

510
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:04,480
Speaker 3: who was responsible for cutting so much of that waste

511
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 3: and fraud, well, he had some parting words for members

512
00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:10,000
Speaker 3: of the media, pointing out that they are the ones

513
00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:13,720
Speaker 3: responsible for so many of the slings and arrows that

514
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 3: have come his way, and they are discredited.

515
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:18,160
Speaker 8: The President mentioned that you had to deal with all

516
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 8: the slings and arrows during your time.

517
00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:22,160
Speaker 7: It does there's this New York other people, you know,

518
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:25,120
Speaker 7: some of the media re organizations, Let's room work, the lingers.

519
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:25,840
Speaker 8: Well, so.

520
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:29,880
Speaker 1: There is a New York Times before today that accuses

521
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:32,200
Speaker 1: you of blurring way between.

522
00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:33,320
Speaker 18: New York Times.

523
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:37,560
Speaker 7: Is that the same publication that got a Bulletzer prize

524
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:42,120
Speaker 7: for a false reporting on the Russia Gate? Is it

525
00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:47,200
Speaker 7: the same organization? I got to check my tots, so

526
00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:48,000
Speaker 7: I think they.

527
00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:48,560
Speaker 8: I think the.

528
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:51,800
Speaker 7: Judge just ruled against New York Times for their lies

529
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,600
Speaker 7: about the Russia Gate hoax, and that they might have

530
00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:57,520
Speaker 7: to give back that Fullitzer price that New York Times.

531
00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:01,240
Speaker 3: Let's move on, and we've seen this from Trump administration

532
00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:04,160
Speaker 3: across the board almost whether it's heg Zeth, where it's

533
00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:09,600
Speaker 3: Rubio Musk there, who you know isn't a politician, but

534
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:13,120
Speaker 3: he had a fairly significant role. They are just hitting

535
00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:17,560
Speaker 3: back the media hard. They've taken on Trump's attitude towards

536
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:20,880
Speaker 3: the media, and you've got to say it's pretty effective.

537
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:21,120
Speaker 9: For sure.

538
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:25,280
Speaker 11: It's not your grandmother's Republican Party and this whole group

539
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:28,400
Speaker 11: starting the Trump leading he really showed people how to

540
00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:31,480
Speaker 11: fight and when things go as bad as they've gone,

541
00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:34,880
Speaker 11: you're kind of past nice manners and niceties and all

542
00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:37,040
Speaker 11: those things we saw from John McCain and Mitt Romney

543
00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:38,800
Speaker 11: and even Ronald Reagan. It was just a different world

544
00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:40,480
Speaker 11: that we're living in and here you've got to be

545
00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:42,840
Speaker 11: willing to roll up your sleeves and fight, and they

546
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:43,640
Speaker 11: kind of relish it.

547
00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 9: So it's not everybody's cup of tea.

548
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:48,360
Speaker 11: Always running to people who don't like it or wish

549
00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:49,480
Speaker 11: the demeanor would be different.

550
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:51,240
Speaker 9: But I think it's very effective.

551
00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:52,959
Speaker 3: And a lot of people, actually, if they want to

552
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:56,440
Speaker 3: go back to the gop of Mitt Romney or McCain

553
00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:59,400
Speaker 3: or good luck to them, because that's the GoPay of losers.

554
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:04,160
Speaker 3: And those days are over. The voters have no appetite

555
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:06,520
Speaker 3: for that. So never mind whether Trump's there or not.

556
00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:09,240
Speaker 3: The voters don't want that. They don't want to have

557
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:13,920
Speaker 3: polite losers. Now, we saw the way the media treated

558
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:18,120
Speaker 3: Elon Mask after his salute from the Heart. They were

559
00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:20,240
Speaker 3: calling him a Nazi, saying he was doing some sort

560
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:24,800
Speaker 3: of a Hile Hitler salute, which was just so dishonest. Well,

561
00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:28,680
Speaker 3: Democrat Cory Booker did something well pretty much exactly the

562
00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:32,040
Speaker 3: same in the last couple of days, and there was

563
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:35,320
Speaker 3: no condemnation, no accusations.

564
00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 2: Many didn't even report on it.

565
00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:40,160
Speaker 3: And Kosh, I guess this goes to the point of

566
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:43,760
Speaker 3: why they feel like the media deserves to be treated

567
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:47,920
Speaker 3: with this stain, because it's just discredited itself.

568
00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:48,560
Speaker 9: Time and again.

569
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:50,400
Speaker 11: And when you think they can't sink any lawa you

570
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:53,560
Speaker 11: can see these examples. And it's not even about hypocrisy,

571
00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:56,000
Speaker 11: it's about hierarchy. So Cory Brooker, you see, is a

572
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:59,000
Speaker 11: higher in the totem pool where he gets extra protections

573
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,480
Speaker 11: that the others side doesn't. And there's many people who've

574
00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:04,360
Speaker 11: done this, and I think the good thing is that

575
00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 11: media has been democratized because of the Internet and social

576
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:10,520
Speaker 11: media that these clips do get out there other programs

577
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:13,360
Speaker 11: like yours and the social media covers it, and that

578
00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:17,040
Speaker 11: just further delegitimizes the mainstream media unless they wise up

579
00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:18,680
Speaker 11: to that, but they don't seem to be doing it

580
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:19,360
Speaker 11: as far.

581
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:23,520
Speaker 3: And sticking with the media, yesterday we had CNN claimbing

582
00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:27,480
Speaker 3: that the Colorado terror attack was carried out by a

583
00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:31,600
Speaker 3: white man. And here we have NBC going to great

584
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:34,800
Speaker 3: lengths not to use the words where it's like Jews

585
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:38,280
Speaker 3: or even pro Israel, calling the victims of the attack

586
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:41,520
Speaker 3: Gaza hostage awareness marches.

587
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:43,160
Speaker 2: I mean, really kosher.

588
00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:48,040
Speaker 11: If the backdrop wasn't as tragically, it is almost funny.

589
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:51,760
Speaker 11: And they really are the kings and queens of linguistics.

590
00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:52,479
Speaker 9: They always have been.

591
00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:55,280
Speaker 11: So you have the Gaza awareness marchers, you had the

592
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:59,160
Speaker 11: Maryland Dad that famous case, and even back in during

593
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:02,360
Speaker 11: then President Oba Hillary Clinton's I'm reminded of the story

594
00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:06,440
Speaker 11: of the terrorist attack in Colombo, Sri Lanka on Easter Sunday,

595
00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:09,120
Speaker 11: and both of them referred to them as Easter worshippers

596
00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:12,200
Speaker 11: because they couldn't use the word Christians. So they are

597
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 11: very aware of words and which words they use, which

598
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:17,520
Speaker 11: words they don't use. But again to your point earlier,

599
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 11: in this day and age of just podcasts and media

600
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 11: and social media, we all are discussing it and seeing

601
00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:25,560
Speaker 11: right through it. So I just think it's a losing strategy,

602
00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:27,040
Speaker 11: but they seem to be addicted to it.

603
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:27,800
Speaker 9: Now.

604
00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:31,640
Speaker 3: In recent weeks, we've had a governor's house fire bombed,

605
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:35,160
Speaker 3: We've had two Israelian busy workers murdered in cold blood,

606
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 3: and now this attack in Colorado several pro israel protests

607
00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:44,400
Speaker 3: is set alight, badly hurt. If there was a right

608
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:48,360
Speaker 3: wing group or movement behind these sorts of attacks, it

609
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:52,600
Speaker 3: would be leading news coverage all around the world. It

610
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:54,960
Speaker 3: would all be as such a crisis that needs to

611
00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:58,200
Speaker 3: be addressed. But it seems like we've got a fairly

612
00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:01,120
Speaker 3: permissive attitude when it comes to violence from the left.

613
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:04,880
Speaker 3: We saw that throughout the BLM riots and we're seeing

614
00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:08,200
Speaker 3: it again with this anti Israeli movement.

615
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:11,360
Speaker 11: It feels like it's the next dimension on this continuum

616
00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:13,400
Speaker 11: where we talked at the top about culture and the

617
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:16,120
Speaker 11: culture is shifting and corporates aren't virtually signaling as much.

618
00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:18,520
Speaker 11: Then we've talked about the media losing its potency and

619
00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:21,279
Speaker 11: legitimacy because we can all see through their games. And

620
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:23,359
Speaker 11: now this is where it gets really serious, where it's

621
00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:27,640
Speaker 11: actual violence taking place, and that double standard again still continues.

622
00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:29,480
Speaker 9: And as you say, BLM or even.

623
00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:33,160
Speaker 11: The Antifa rights before that in Portland elsewhere. So this

624
00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:35,440
Speaker 11: feels like the last printerier. If the right can somehow

625
00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:39,279
Speaker 11: crack this and just reclaim the narrative around that which

626
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:41,919
Speaker 11: they're doing the current administration in terms of their line

627
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:45,160
Speaker 11: order agenda, that will be another big win in this

628
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:46,000
Speaker 11: continuum that we're on.

629
00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:48,600
Speaker 2: And we say that everywhere there was Antifa.

630
00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:51,960
Speaker 3: You mentioned there was some violence in California where they

631
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:54,799
Speaker 3: were there to protest against I think some Christians who

632
00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:57,640
Speaker 3: were gathering, And we see it right here in Australia

633
00:34:57,680 --> 00:35:00,600
Speaker 3: when we have the let women speak much and there's

634
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:02,880
Speaker 3: always some sort of a counter protest because they're not

635
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:08,680
Speaker 3: allowed to speak without the far left activist disrupting them.

636
00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:10,960
Speaker 2: On Colorado, there's been.

637
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:12,880
Speaker 3: A lot of commentary in the past twenty four hours

638
00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:17,120
Speaker 3: about this image summing up the modern Democrat Party.

639
00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:19,080
Speaker 2: Let's have a look at it, Kosha, what do you

640
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:22,920
Speaker 2: say to this. There's a lot happening in that in

641
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:23,640
Speaker 2: that picture.

642
00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:26,920
Speaker 11: Oh my goodness, I could say modern Democrat Party in

643
00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:28,799
Speaker 11: an AI simulator, and I don't think it would come

644
00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:30,960
Speaker 11: out very different from that. You've got the flag in

645
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:33,319
Speaker 11: the background, it's like perfectly framed. In the middle, you

646
00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:36,000
Speaker 11: have this violent person. It's the heinous ax he committed.

647
00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:38,680
Speaker 11: He's shirtless, he's not in particularly good shape. He's an

648
00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:41,759
Speaker 11: illegal immigrant. Yeah, throwing him all the top cocktail, And

649
00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:43,480
Speaker 11: I think it does sum it up everything we just

650
00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:46,480
Speaker 11: talked about, the cultural virtue signaling, the way the media

651
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:48,920
Speaker 11: is covering it, and then the violence from the left

652
00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:52,399
Speaker 11: that's been getting away, but not for long. We'll see

653
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:54,479
Speaker 11: what's going to happen. Some judge is likely going to

654
00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:58,200
Speaker 11: block his deportation. But cases like this only help the

655
00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:00,680
Speaker 11: cause politically on the other side because these are not

656
00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:02,000
Speaker 11: sympathetic figures.

657
00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:03,280
Speaker 2: And Trump's made that point.

658
00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:08,280
Speaker 3: The Muhammad Solomon, the alleged attacker, there's an Egyptian national

659
00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:09,759
Speaker 3: in the US illegally.

660
00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 2: He overstate his visa, entered the.

661
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:16,640
Speaker 3: US during the Biden administration sort asylum in twenty twenty two,

662
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:22,160
Speaker 3: was granted the right to work. Is the Biden administration

663
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 3: in any way to blame for this. They let millions

664
00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:29,600
Speaker 3: through unvetted, and you're going to get characters like this

665
00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:30,440
Speaker 3: amongst them.

666
00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:33,880
Speaker 11: Percent I think this really personifies what we know. So

667
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:36,680
Speaker 11: we know the numbers and the ridiculous new eleven million

668
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:40,400
Speaker 11: plus that were allowed to pour in through four years,

669
00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:43,160
Speaker 11: and then the particulars of this case where he was

670
00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:46,600
Speaker 11: caught even by the ace Agans in the Biden administration,

671
00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:48,400
Speaker 11: but was let go because that was the policy wele

672
00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:51,600
Speaker 11: catching release and then he was rewarded with legal work

673
00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:54,040
Speaker 11: access even though he oversteed his visa. So you're just

674
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:56,600
Speaker 11: creating magnets and rewarding So every issue that we talk

675
00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:59,239
Speaker 11: about August presonified in this case, and then he goes

676
00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:01,720
Speaker 11: and does what he did, So it really just puts

677
00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:05,040
Speaker 11: a huge red line, I think, under this issue in

678
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:07,799
Speaker 11: a way that had never happened before. And hopefully the

679
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:10,200
Speaker 11: current administration can take advantage of that momentum and do

680
00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:10,960
Speaker 11: something about it.

681
00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:14,560
Speaker 3: Now, before you go, we talked about that cultural shift

682
00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:18,440
Speaker 3: across the US, Let's have a look at another example

683
00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:20,160
Speaker 3: of that. This is something we wouldn't have seen a

684
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:23,000
Speaker 3: few years ago, certainly wouldn't have seen it in Trump's

685
00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:24,200
Speaker 3: first term.

686
00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:27,120
Speaker 2: What yere as football legends.

687
00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:30,960
Speaker 3: And current Pittsburgh Steelers stars pay tribute to Donald Trump

688
00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:32,360
Speaker 3: in Pennsylvania.

689
00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:35,359
Speaker 14: I'd like to present to this to a Hall of

690
00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:38,600
Speaker 14: Fame President, please accept that.

691
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:42,040
Speaker 15: How about this president of ours?

692
00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:45,640
Speaker 5: Huh?

693
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:48,200
Speaker 2: Just wanted to say, God bless you President Trump, and

694
00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:50,080
Speaker 2: God bless you Pittsburgh.

695
00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:54,840
Speaker 3: Now, that was Pittsburgh Steeler's legend and Vietnam warvet Rocky

696
00:37:54,960 --> 00:38:00,520
Speaker 3: Blayer and current quarterback Mason Rudolph and defensive back Miles

697
00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:03,759
Speaker 3: Killer Brood. I mean, that is something we wouldn't have

698
00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:08,280
Speaker 3: seen kosher just a few years ago. Those players, current

699
00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:10,640
Speaker 3: players would have been canceled. They would have made all

700
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:15,439
Speaker 3: sorts of uproar. No one really was bothered by any

701
00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:17,600
Speaker 3: of that. I didn't say too much backlash at all.

702
00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:18,600
Speaker 9: So true.

703
00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:21,000
Speaker 11: You know, there's that old adage I think attributed to

704
00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:24,600
Speaker 11: Andrew Breitbart that politics is downstream from culture. Every once

705
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:26,799
Speaker 11: in a while, in a case like Donald Trump, who's

706
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 11: very unique, it almost was like culture is downstream from politics,

707
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:33,399
Speaker 11: and just his whole story even before politics and since

708
00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:36,319
Speaker 11: then the comeback, being the under dog, being counted out

709
00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:38,800
Speaker 11: and coming is like classic American stuff.

710
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:39,640
Speaker 9: Everybody loves that.

711
00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:41,759
Speaker 11: Story, even though they've been trained not to admit it,

712
00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:43,719
Speaker 11: and this carries a lot of weight when you have

713
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:47,239
Speaker 11: NFL stars and Hall of Fame legends doing that. The

714
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:50,200
Speaker 11: other piece two, since it's a Steelers Pittsburgh that is

715
00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:54,200
Speaker 11: a key constituency of Trump Pennsylvania and particularly that town.

716
00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:57,400
Speaker 11: The Steelers and miners didn't go to Republicans since Ronald

717
00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:00,840
Speaker 11: Reagan forty years and he in both terms turned that around,

718
00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:02,360
Speaker 11: and I think that's sort of the other piece of it,

719
00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:05,120
Speaker 11: and the Steelers, of course exemplify that part of his constituency.

720
00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:08,319
Speaker 3: Kosher Gator, thanks for your time tonight coming up, But

721
00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:13,200
Speaker 3: why was Alex Stein attacked by LGBTQIA activists?

722
00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:25,880
Speaker 2: It joins me next to explain, welcome back.

723
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 9: Now.

724
00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:29,479
Speaker 3: We've seen morale and recruitment numbers in the US Army

725
00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:34,320
Speaker 3: saw in recent months after President Donald Trump's election triumph,

726
00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:37,920
Speaker 3: and get ready to see those numbers saw further because

727
00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:42,360
Speaker 3: the ad campaigns have changed a bit. They've gone from

728
00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:44,080
Speaker 3: this under the Biden administration.

729
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:49,960
Speaker 19: Although he had a fairly typical childhood, took ballet, played violin,

730
00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:54,319
Speaker 19: I also marched for equality. I like to think I've

731
00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:56,560
Speaker 19: been defending freedom from an early age.

732
00:39:56,760 --> 00:40:00,240
Speaker 2: Yep, that was under Biden. This is the latest.

733
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:09,000
Speaker 16: No more distractions, no more electric tanks, no more gender confusion,

734
00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:11,080
Speaker 16: no more climate change worship.

735
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:15,960
Speaker 8: We are laser focused on our mission of war FI.

736
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:23,120
Speaker 13: We will measure our success not only by the battles

737
00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:26,360
Speaker 13: we win, but also by the wars we end, and

738
00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:29,919
Speaker 13: perhaps most importantly, the wars we never get into.

739
00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:33,040
Speaker 8: It's called peace through strength.

740
00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:36,120
Speaker 13: Through our power and might, we will leave the world

741
00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:39,600
Speaker 13: to peace. Our friends will respect us, our enemies will

742
00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:43,200
Speaker 13: fear us, and the whole world will admire the unrivaled

743
00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:48,719
Speaker 13: greatness of the United States military. We will replenish the

744
00:40:48,840 --> 00:40:52,799
Speaker 13: pride of our armed forces and the recruitment crisis.

745
00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:57,040
Speaker 10: We don't fight because we hate what's in front of us.

746
00:40:57,800 --> 00:40:59,520
Speaker 8: We fight because we love us behind us.

747
00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:06,279
Speaker 13: God bless you, God bless our armpornsers, God bless our

748
00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:10,320
Speaker 13: men and women serving overseas, and God bless the United

749
00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:12,280
Speaker 13: States of America.

750
00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:15,720
Speaker 3: Joining men as comedian and host of Primetime with Alex

751
00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:20,000
Speaker 3: Dahn on Blastava, Alex it MAXs you want to sign up.

752
00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:22,440
Speaker 2: That is some inspiring stuff.

753
00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 8: No doubt about it.

754
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:27,640
Speaker 20: And now that young soldiers don't have to worry about

755
00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:31,279
Speaker 20: being basically under the thumb of a person with gender

756
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:34,040
Speaker 20: dysphoria that's mentally ill. I think they have a lot

757
00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:37,120
Speaker 20: more confidence in joining the Armed Services. So I'm happy

758
00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:39,880
Speaker 20: that people like Rachel Levine are now banned from joining

759
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:42,960
Speaker 20: the United States Armed Services. So Pete Haig Seth and

760
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:45,920
Speaker 20: Donald Trump have given the American people, and especially the

761
00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:46,960
Speaker 20: young American.

762
00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:49,920
Speaker 8: People, faith into our arm services. It's beautiful.

763
00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:52,560
Speaker 20: I love to see it, and I can't wait for

764
00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:55,000
Speaker 20: more young people to sign up and actually support our

765
00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:57,080
Speaker 20: country in a positive way and not some sort of

766
00:41:57,160 --> 00:41:59,600
Speaker 20: weird LGBTQ gender mafia way.

767
00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:05,319
Speaker 3: Well, talking about l g b t Q I a community.

768
00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:08,279
Speaker 3: You've really been embraced by that community.

769
00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:09,359
Speaker 2: It is Pride Month.

770
00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:24,440
Speaker 3: Let's just have a look at how you've been embraced.

771
00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:25,399
Speaker 20: Protect How are you going to protect a kid I cutting.

772
00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:30,800
Speaker 9: Off in genital No?

773
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:35,560
Speaker 2: No, look at this.

774
00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:37,440
Speaker 8: Do you think I should kill me?

775
00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:39,680
Speaker 18: I hope you live forever.

776
00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:41,160
Speaker 2: I'm sorry that you want me to kill myself.

777
00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:48,319
Speaker 3: Alex, that don't seem to like you.

778
00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:49,279
Speaker 20: No, Rita, but I mean there aren't a lot of

779
00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:54,839
Speaker 20: pharmaceutical drugs, and luckily for me, the estrogen hormone keeps

780
00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:58,000
Speaker 20: them pretty docile and pretty weak, so they're not too tough.

781
00:42:58,040 --> 00:42:59,879
Speaker 8: So thank goodness, I didn't look to do.

782
00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:03,520
Speaker 9: That.

783
00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:06,520
Speaker 3: Didn't look so docile where they were pouring water. I

784
00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:10,239
Speaker 3: hope it was water on you and coming after you.

785
00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:12,279
Speaker 3: Must be frightening. I know you joke about it, but

786
00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:14,640
Speaker 3: we've got a bunch of people.

787
00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:17,640
Speaker 2: All worked up coming at you.

788
00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:21,239
Speaker 3: You must fear for your safety occasionally. But I want

789
00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:25,600
Speaker 3: to ask you about CNN. They had some disturbing news

790
00:43:25,719 --> 00:43:27,280
Speaker 3: to impart to their views.

791
00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:30,360
Speaker 18: Plus eight point advantage for the Republican Party.

792
00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:31,640
Speaker 9: How is that possible?

793
00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:32,160
Speaker 8: Democrats?

794
00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:34,879
Speaker 18: How is that possible? After all the recession, because after

795
00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:37,440
Speaker 18: the stock market's been doing all of this, after all

796
00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:40,200
Speaker 18: the terrorists that Americans are against, and Republicans still hold

797
00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:41,840
Speaker 18: an eight point lead on the economy.

798
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:42,880
Speaker 16: Are you kidding me?

799
00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:45,600
Speaker 17: This is a CNN This is new CNN pulingd How

800
00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:46,000
Speaker 17: was that?

801
00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:48,560
Speaker 11: When we look for trends, how is that trending with

802
00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:49,600
Speaker 11: other data that you're pulling in.

803
00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:51,920
Speaker 18: Yeah, if it was just this one CNN pul that

804
00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:54,240
Speaker 18: would be one thing. But take a look at Reuter's ipsos.

805
00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:57,680
Speaker 18: What do we see here? Party with a better economic plan? Well,

806
00:43:57,680 --> 00:44:00,760
Speaker 18: it may have twenty twenty four, just before Donald Trump

807
00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:03,759
Speaker 18: was reelected president, Republicans had a nine point advantage. Look

808
00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:05,839
Speaker 18: at where we are now. In May of twenty twenty five,

809
00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:10,200
Speaker 18: the advantage actually went up by three points. Now Republicans

810
00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:12,680
Speaker 18: have a twelve point advantage when it comes to the

811
00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:14,960
Speaker 18: party with a better economic plan Alex.

812
00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:18,960
Speaker 3: They just can't understand why their own polling is showing

813
00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:20,759
Speaker 3: Trump winning on the economy.

814
00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:25,439
Speaker 20: Yeah, it's really not a hard equation to figure out.

815
00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:28,000
Speaker 20: And if you really just look at our economy now,

816
00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:30,719
Speaker 20: the fact that people actually have some faith that they

817
00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:33,320
Speaker 20: can actually go work and that industries are coming back

818
00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:35,480
Speaker 20: here in America, its just created so much of a

819
00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:38,879
Speaker 20: better lifestyle for the American people. And you know, when

820
00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:42,120
Speaker 20: it comes to the polling though, of course, these Democrats

821
00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:45,080
Speaker 20: are now changing. I mean, nobody predicted Donald Trump to

822
00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:46,960
Speaker 20: win in a landslide. So it just tells you that

823
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:48,640
Speaker 20: even though the mainstream media is going to tell you

824
00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:51,319
Speaker 20: that the liberals are in charge, that everybody loves, you know,

825
00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:54,759
Speaker 20: Kamala Harris and progressiveness, that's not the case. There's been

826
00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:59,240
Speaker 20: a major shift and it's really in the conservative shavor

827
00:44:59,320 --> 00:44:59,719
Speaker 20: right now.

828
00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:05,560
Speaker 3: Well, those figures on who's best for the economy are

829
00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:09,719
Speaker 3: just overwhelmingly leaning Donald Trump's way, and he's had some

830
00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:14,879
Speaker 3: good data recently. Inflation is down, real wages are up,

831
00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:19,319
Speaker 3: and the tariffs haven't been the disaster that we were

832
00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:21,800
Speaker 3: told they were going to be. Just tell me how

833
00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:26,400
Speaker 3: that's seen in the US right now, particularly the tariff policy,

834
00:45:26,520 --> 00:45:31,480
Speaker 3: because obviously around the world we're very concerned about the tariffs.

835
00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:35,279
Speaker 20: Well, of course, Rita and I try to talk to

836
00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:37,799
Speaker 20: people that are in industries here in America, and the

837
00:45:37,840 --> 00:45:40,040
Speaker 20: car business isn't hurting that bad. But you know where

838
00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:42,840
Speaker 20: I've heard is hurting so far is Las Vegas.

839
00:45:42,880 --> 00:45:45,719
Speaker 8: They've lost a little bit of their international travelers, and

840
00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:48,279
Speaker 8: so they said, I swear Rita, that's what they said.

841
00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:50,239
Speaker 20: They said, Las Vegas is down a little bit right now,

842
00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:52,279
Speaker 20: but other than that, the economy is pretty good, and

843
00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:55,080
Speaker 20: if Las Vegas is down, it's probably better for society

844
00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:55,719
Speaker 20: if you ask me.

845
00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:02,200
Speaker 3: Well, we've got some more good news with a big

846
00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:05,360
Speaker 3: drop in fentanyl crossing the border.

847
00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:07,160
Speaker 2: Washington Post calls.

848
00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:10,680
Speaker 3: It mysterious, this drop, but I don't think, alex it

849
00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:14,960
Speaker 3: is all that mysterious, and it's certainly going to save many,

850
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:15,760
Speaker 3: many lives.

851
00:46:17,719 --> 00:46:20,120
Speaker 20: Reader doesn't it make you sick how they can just

852
00:46:20,239 --> 00:46:22,520
Speaker 20: pretend to be so naive. I mean, just the fact

853
00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:24,640
Speaker 20: that Donald Trump was able to shut down the border

854
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:28,920
Speaker 20: in one day and make our country infinitely more safe

855
00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:32,200
Speaker 20: when it comes to all of the drugs in fentanyl,

856
00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:35,520
Speaker 20: and not only fentanyl, cocaine, meth amphetamines, all kinds of

857
00:46:35,600 --> 00:46:38,319
Speaker 20: drugs that are being you know, just taken into our

858
00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:41,040
Speaker 20: country by coyotes. So this is not a hard problem

859
00:46:41,040 --> 00:46:43,040
Speaker 20: to solve, and Donald Trump basically solved it, and for

860
00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:45,120
Speaker 20: them to try to placate it like it's some sort

861
00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:48,120
Speaker 20: of mystery, it just shows you how dumb the mainstream

862
00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:50,759
Speaker 20: media really is. And no offense the people the Sky

863
00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:53,120
Speaker 20: News are great, they are not so much.

864
00:46:55,080 --> 00:46:55,200
Speaker 9: Now.

865
00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:59,920
Speaker 3: We call it the leftist mainstream media. It's Donald trumpet

866
00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:02,520
Speaker 3: any credit at all. We know they hate him, and

867
00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:07,640
Speaker 3: it's just relentless negative coverage of all things Trump. But

868
00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:12,680
Speaker 3: for things like the border and you know, the fentanel

869
00:47:13,160 --> 00:47:18,040
Speaker 3: numbers dropping the economy, is there any credit going the

870
00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:19,799
Speaker 3: Trump administration's way yet?

871
00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:24,440
Speaker 20: Seriously, the only complaint that I have seen in Trump's

872
00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:26,680
Speaker 20: administration right now, because you know, I go to these

873
00:47:26,719 --> 00:47:30,680
Speaker 20: college campuses and I debate is the deportation of Abrego Garcia,

874
00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:33,279
Speaker 20: and honestly, a Brego Garcia, the Trump administration. You know,

875
00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:35,360
Speaker 20: they admit that they didn't give him fully due process,

876
00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:37,480
Speaker 20: but he came here illegally, so he got kicked out illegally.

877
00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:41,040
Speaker 20: And that's one person that's not the overwhelming majority of

878
00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:44,040
Speaker 20: you know, the situations when it comes to deporting people.

879
00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:45,920
Speaker 20: So other than that, I mean, when it comes to

880
00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:48,319
Speaker 20: the economy, when it comes to January sixth, when it

881
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:51,000
Speaker 20: just comes to the overall you know, feelings that people have,

882
00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:54,640
Speaker 20: when it comes to our safety and especially our geopolitical relationships.

883
00:47:54,680 --> 00:47:58,640
Speaker 20: You know, people who have never been more satisfied than

884
00:47:58,920 --> 00:48:01,680
Speaker 20: in the past four years than we are today, especially

885
00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:07,480
Speaker 20: under you know, Joe Biden, sleepy, Joe alex Stein.

886
00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:10,080
Speaker 3: Thank you for your time, and that's all the time

887
00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:13,319
Speaker 3: we have. I'll see you tomorrow at eleven. Newsnight is

888
00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:13,960
Speaker 3: up next
