WEBVTT - The Late Debate | 14 November 0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:05.040 Late, welcome the Late to pay. 0:00:06.880 --> 0:00:08.239 Good evening and thanks for joining us. 0:00:08.240 --> 0:00:10.920 I'm James Macpherson with Liz Store and filling in tonight 0:00:11.000 --> 0:00:14.200 for Caleb Bond from the Menzies Research and Freyer Leitch. 0:00:14.240 --> 0:00:17.119 Great to have you with us, Freyer, awesome to be here. 0:00:17.280 --> 0:00:18.200 We've got a lot to. 0:00:18.160 --> 0:00:20.840 Get through tonight, so let's get cracking. A little later, 0:00:20.880 --> 0:00:22.960 we'll talk about one of those stories that can only 0:00:23.040 --> 0:00:26.520 happen in Australia. A family come home to find an 0:00:26.520 --> 0:00:29.560 animal they were not expecting in their bed. It wasn't 0:00:29.680 --> 0:00:31.400 one of their pets. We'll show you what it was 0:00:31.520 --> 0:00:34.320 a little later. Plus, when we get to the papers, 0:00:35.200 --> 0:00:38.839 that the cost of renewables is a lot higher than 0:00:38.880 --> 0:00:42.360 you've been told. Try half a trillion dollars higher. That's 0:00:42.400 --> 0:00:44.560 the front page of tomorrow's Daily Telegraph. 0:00:44.720 --> 0:00:45.640 We'll unpack that. 0:00:46.240 --> 0:00:50.040 Plus Maya have canceled the opening of their Christmas window 0:00:50.120 --> 0:00:54.760 display after threats from Palestinian protesters. So all of that 0:00:55.360 --> 0:00:58.000 when we look at the papers. But first, Donald Trump 0:00:58.040 --> 0:01:02.920 hasn't even taken office yet, but the lefty meltdowns continue. 0:01:03.200 --> 0:01:07.080 Last night, The Guardian, a former newspaper, announced they will 0:01:07.120 --> 0:01:10.520 no longer be posting articles on Twitter. Here's the great 0:01:10.640 --> 0:01:13.440 thing about this story, though. You know when the Guardian 0:01:13.520 --> 0:01:16.440 post articles on Twitter, Freyer and Liz, you know, I 0:01:16.520 --> 0:01:19.280 have a look and most of their articles get like 0:01:19.280 --> 0:01:22.160 one hundred likes, maybe one hundred and twenty likes, maybe 0:01:22.160 --> 0:01:23.000 two hundred likes. 0:01:23.080 --> 0:01:24.640 They be very kind. Ye. 0:01:25.040 --> 0:01:27.520 The post that the Guardian put up saying they'll no 0:01:27.560 --> 0:01:31.000 longer be on Twitter had twenty nine thousand likes. 0:01:31.440 --> 0:01:34.039 What does that tell you they I don't know why 0:01:34.040 --> 0:01:35.920 they have to announce on Twitter that they're leaving. 0:01:35.959 --> 0:01:38.080 It's not like an airport where you have to announce 0:01:38.640 --> 0:01:42.080 your departure. But they said that the benefits of being 0:01:42.160 --> 0:01:45.440 on Twitter are now outweighed by the negatives because of 0:01:45.480 --> 0:01:50.200 what they described as quote disturbing content. Can I suggest 0:01:50.600 --> 0:01:52.960 maybe the Guardian would be a little less disturbed about 0:01:52.960 --> 0:01:55.560 the content on Twitter if they didn't read their own 0:01:55.720 --> 0:01:58.920 Twitter feed. Let me give you an example or two 0:01:59.560 --> 0:02:02.240 of this. Lots of things that Guardian have been posting 0:02:02.720 --> 0:02:07.040 on Twitter, and remember they're worried about disturbing content. Here's 0:02:07.080 --> 0:02:09.080 one of the articles they posted to Twitter. Is it 0:02:09.160 --> 0:02:13.400 okay for scientists to weep over climate change? I think 0:02:13.400 --> 0:02:15.200 we can all agree that's a waste of a tweet. 0:02:15.200 --> 0:02:18.880 All about this one? Stop calling women girls. It's either 0:02:18.880 --> 0:02:21.639 patronizing or sexually suggestive. 0:02:22.120 --> 0:02:22.919 What about this one? 0:02:22.960 --> 0:02:26.000 The Guardian posted teaching my daughter to cook does not 0:02:26.160 --> 0:02:29.440 make me a bad feminist. This is one of my favorites. 0:02:29.440 --> 0:02:32.640 They actually tweeted an article. Remember the Guardian, they're leaving 0:02:32.680 --> 0:02:35.840 Twitter because of the disturbing content, and yet they tweeted 0:02:35.880 --> 0:02:38.800 an article, the headline of which read, I'd read the 0:02:38.919 --> 0:02:43.600 day my daughter's poos get smaller. I have read that 0:02:44.360 --> 0:02:47.320 is about I don't why let me give you two more? 0:02:47.560 --> 0:02:52.040 Barbecue is an American tradition of enslaved Africans and Native Americans. 0:02:52.520 --> 0:02:56.240 And one final headline from the Guardian, would you believe it? 0:02:56.280 --> 0:02:56.600 Should? 0:02:56.600 --> 0:02:59.959 It really be a crime to look at child pornography? 0:03:00.760 --> 0:03:05.160 And the Guardian are worried about disturbing content on Twitter. Well, 0:03:05.200 --> 0:03:08.480 now that they've left Twitter, Liz, the amount of disturbing 0:03:08.520 --> 0:03:12.160 content has been reduced drastically. Talk about own goal. 0:03:12.400 --> 0:03:15.959 The transition to new media is full steam ahead. Last 0:03:16.040 --> 0:03:20.560 night we were telling you about the ratings deep dive off 0:03:20.639 --> 0:03:27.399 a clip being experienced in CNN MSNBC post the election. 0:03:27.639 --> 0:03:32.000 Now The Guardian, the mouthpiece of the establishment, is joining 0:03:32.040 --> 0:03:36.280 their ranks just by bowing out unasked. I think the 0:03:36.400 --> 0:03:39.839 real reason why they did this, though, is because they 0:03:39.920 --> 0:03:44.480 have been losing on average sixteen followers for every single 0:03:44.560 --> 0:03:48.880 tweet they post, which amounts to thirty six thousand followers 0:03:49.320 --> 0:03:54.240 unsubscribing from The Guardian in the last thirty days. 0:03:54.320 --> 0:03:56.560 So they know, ex users. 0:03:56.200 --> 0:03:59.520 We've figured out I'm not interested in our propaganda. 0:03:59.600 --> 0:03:59.840 They are. 0:04:00.000 --> 0:04:03.400 You're not interested in the utter slop we are calling 0:04:03.520 --> 0:04:05.920 news and feeding them. 0:04:06.000 --> 0:04:07.720 So I absolutely love this. 0:04:07.840 --> 0:04:10.520 Elon Musk quickly followed up by the way being like 0:04:11.080 --> 0:04:14.040 the Guardian is a dying publication. 0:04:14.760 --> 0:04:16.039 And funniest of all. 0:04:15.960 --> 0:04:18.479 Was the fact that they finished up this statement being 0:04:18.520 --> 0:04:22.680 like we're leaving there's all these right wing conspiracy theories 0:04:22.720 --> 0:04:27.440 and racism, always with the racism. Obviously there's so much racism. 0:04:27.839 --> 0:04:30.880 And then they finished their little statement by saying we 0:04:31.000 --> 0:04:34.480 are supported by readers, so if you can please pitch 0:04:34.560 --> 0:04:37.960 in and help us out, you are our sole benefactors. 0:04:38.520 --> 0:04:41.000 Of course, leaving out the fact that Bill Gates has 0:04:41.000 --> 0:04:46.560 donated well over ten million dollars to this establishment mouthpiece. 0:04:46.640 --> 0:04:48.360 So here they are crying poor. 0:04:48.400 --> 0:04:49.640 The truth of the matter Israel. 0:04:50.000 --> 0:04:53.200 They simply can't compete on a level playing field, which 0:04:53.279 --> 0:04:57.240 is what Elon Musk turned X into when he got 0:04:57.279 --> 0:05:00.280 all the Conservatives out of Twitter jail when he bored 0:05:00.279 --> 0:05:03.400 it in twenty twenty two. Now they're all crying poor, 0:05:03.480 --> 0:05:07.520 either leaving or they literally can't have the heat. 0:05:07.720 --> 0:05:10.880 I mean, funnily enough, people aren't particularly interested in far 0:05:11.000 --> 0:05:14.440 left propaganda. They had to struggle through it when Twitter 0:05:14.520 --> 0:05:16.599 was run by lefties, and now that they don't have 0:05:16.720 --> 0:05:19.120 to see it in their feed, it's no surprise that 0:05:19.160 --> 0:05:24.080 people just simply scroll past, unsubscribe, unfollow. I mean it 0:05:24.240 --> 0:05:28.120 truly is just ridiculous, to be honest, though, I didn't 0:05:28.120 --> 0:05:30.359 even know The Guardian had a Twitter account until they 0:05:30.400 --> 0:05:31.800 announced they were leaving. 0:05:32.279 --> 0:05:35.040 So I mean, clearly they've not been very SINU haven't. 0:05:34.800 --> 0:05:36.280 Been a subscriber, Pryer. 0:05:37.200 --> 0:05:39.320 I wondered why you were always so happy. It's because 0:05:39.360 --> 0:05:42.480 you weren't reading The Guardian. It's not only The Guardian 0:05:42.520 --> 0:05:45.880 who have now boycotted Twitter as a result of Donald 0:05:45.920 --> 0:05:48.960 Trump's election win. Jamie Lee Curtis, the actress, is no 0:05:49.040 --> 0:05:50.840 longer on Twitter. I'm not sure how any of us 0:05:51.240 --> 0:05:54.120 will sleep at night, and Don Lemon, the former CNN 0:05:54.160 --> 0:05:57.279 host will He's announced to everybody on Twitter that he's 0:05:57.400 --> 0:05:58.040 leaving Twitter. 0:05:58.080 --> 0:05:59.919 Here is hi, everyone. 0:06:00.800 --> 0:06:04.080 I have loved connecting with all of you on Twitter 0:06:04.120 --> 0:06:06.599 and then on x for all of these years, but it's. 0:06:06.480 --> 0:06:07.960 Time for me to leave the platform. 0:06:09.240 --> 0:06:11.760 Heart's breaking all over the world because of that announcement. 0:06:11.760 --> 0:06:15.760 Don Lemon actually said, I once believed that Twitter was 0:06:15.800 --> 0:06:19.640 a place for honest debate and discussion, transparency and free speech, 0:06:20.000 --> 0:06:22.040 but I now feel it does not serve that purpose. 0:06:22.240 --> 0:06:23.800 This is a guy who used to host a show 0:06:23.800 --> 0:06:24.600 on CNN. 0:06:25.480 --> 0:06:27.360 For real, that's all he's known for. 0:06:27.560 --> 0:06:31.919 Really, this is Don Lemon, and we still screenmembercy Honest 0:06:31.960 --> 0:06:35.839 debates the infamous interview that he did with Elon Musk 0:06:35.880 --> 0:06:38.800 where Elon Musk was like, well, you're for censorship and 0:06:38.880 --> 0:06:41.880 I'm not, and Don Lemon's like, no, no, that's not 0:06:41.960 --> 0:06:45.240 what I'm saying, and then Elon Musk basically just gave 0:06:45.279 --> 0:06:48.560 a short synopsis of everything Don Lemon had said in 0:06:48.600 --> 0:06:49.440 the interview and. 0:06:49.360 --> 0:06:51.560 Said, yes, yes you are. 0:06:51.760 --> 0:06:58.120 You're saying that this platform, my platform, must be censored. Otherwise, well, 0:06:58.279 --> 0:07:01.640 it's rife with racism and conspiracy theories, et. 0:07:01.640 --> 0:07:02.480 Cetera, and so on. 0:07:02.600 --> 0:07:04.440 So it was absolutely do you remember that. 0:07:04.880 --> 0:07:07.400 I do remember that, and I must say I love 0:07:07.640 --> 0:07:11.520 seeing the Lemon be a little sour. It's pretty entertaining 0:07:11.520 --> 0:07:13.760 to watch. But another person, I would have had no 0:07:13.880 --> 0:07:16.120 idea he had a Twitter account unless he announced he 0:07:16.200 --> 0:07:16.680 was leaving. 0:07:17.000 --> 0:07:19.200 But I mean, it's pretty ironic. 0:07:18.800 --> 0:07:23.080 To claim that Elon Musk's X is about censorship when 0:07:23.280 --> 0:07:27.400 before Elon Musk took over, there was legitimate censorship. Did 0:07:27.440 --> 0:07:31.160 he prefer a time when discussions around COVID were censored? 0:07:31.200 --> 0:07:34.280 When the President of the United States was kicked off 0:07:34.400 --> 0:07:35.120 the platform? 0:07:35.600 --> 0:07:36.840 That is censorship. 0:07:37.040 --> 0:07:40.480 What Elon Musk has done with X is truly transformative, 0:07:40.520 --> 0:07:44.400 and as you said, Liz, it is revolutionizing journalism, and 0:07:44.480 --> 0:07:48.920 people like The Lemon and the Propaganda Guardian they will 0:07:48.920 --> 0:07:50.720 be left behind in this new world. 0:07:51.240 --> 0:07:51.720 It really is. 0:07:51.720 --> 0:07:54.640 They're upset that people they disagree with are allowed to 0:07:54.640 --> 0:07:58.120 exist on Twitter, so that's why they're leaving it. 0:07:58.400 --> 0:08:02.760 I think they're also there retired of community notes, because 0:08:02.800 --> 0:08:06.760 when I then went to the Guardian Twitter feed and 0:08:06.920 --> 0:08:10.880 checked out a lot of their posts community notes. Now 0:08:10.920 --> 0:08:14.960 anyone can slap a community note on anyone's tweet and 0:08:15.040 --> 0:08:18.640 just be like ah ah, excuse me, correction, and the 0:08:18.680 --> 0:08:22.400 Guardian had a bountiful supply of those to the States 0:08:22.480 --> 0:08:25.360 now where it is a great day for democracy, ladies 0:08:25.360 --> 0:08:28.840 and gentlemen, because today is the day that we learnt 0:08:29.000 --> 0:08:33.600 that the GOP has clinched the trifecta. Not only have 0:08:33.679 --> 0:08:37.000 they won the Senate and of course the presidency, but 0:08:37.120 --> 0:08:40.760 they are maintaining their majority in the House. 0:08:40.800 --> 0:08:41.960 So it was a beautiful day. 0:08:42.000 --> 0:08:44.880 It was a perfect day for Donald Trump to do 0:08:45.000 --> 0:08:48.960 the usual I'm taking over from the president visit with 0:08:49.120 --> 0:08:53.400 President elect and current president shaking hands. Now, a lot 0:08:53.440 --> 0:08:56.280 of people are all over this like a rash, a 0:08:56.320 --> 0:08:57.760 good one, being. 0:08:57.600 --> 0:09:00.199 Like these guys seem. 0:08:59.720 --> 0:09:04.000 To be great mates. Watch this short clip and see 0:09:04.040 --> 0:09:06.960 what you think. There seems to be a lot of 0:09:07.160 --> 0:09:09.280 genuine regard going on here. 0:09:10.640 --> 0:09:15.760 President elect, former president and you found congratulations, thank you, 0:09:16.200 --> 0:09:20.440 and looking forward to having Like we said, it's through 0:09:20.480 --> 0:09:23.840 the transition. Soever we can make sure you're a comedy 0:09:24.040 --> 0:09:26.199 what you need and we're gonna get a chance to 0:09:26.240 --> 0:09:29.120 talk across some out to this good welcome. 0:09:28.920 --> 0:09:33.800 Bling back, no animosity, all smiles, and check out this 0:09:34.080 --> 0:09:39.079 happy snap of the Bidens with Trump on this auspicious occasion. 0:09:39.760 --> 0:09:44.480 Check out the size of these smiles and it seems genuine. 0:09:44.559 --> 0:09:46.479 Am I wrong in saying. 0:09:46.640 --> 0:09:48.319 Winners are grinners? 0:09:48.360 --> 0:09:51.680 There's no convincing me now that the Bidens didn't. Indeed, 0:09:52.040 --> 0:09:55.920 as gossip has had it, voted for Trump at the 0:09:56.000 --> 0:09:59.320 election in order to flip the bird to the establishment 0:09:59.360 --> 0:10:03.520 that had flipped the bird to them so unceremoniously after. 0:10:03.400 --> 0:10:04.520 Years of service. 0:10:04.720 --> 0:10:07.160 Everyone had been making a lot of talk about the 0:10:07.200 --> 0:10:11.040 fact that Jill Biden on election Day wore a brilliant 0:10:11.200 --> 0:10:15.920 red suit, which everyone knows stands for Republicans for the win, 0:10:16.280 --> 0:10:20.760 especially on election Day, and she did this loud and proud. 0:10:20.880 --> 0:10:24.040 It hasn't been any secret that these guys do despise 0:10:24.120 --> 0:10:28.240 Kamala and have actually warmed to Trump in recent days. 0:10:28.720 --> 0:10:31.360 I just can't believe how happy Joe Biden looked in 0:10:31.400 --> 0:10:31.880 that photo. 0:10:31.920 --> 0:10:33.160 I've not seen him look. 0:10:33.040 --> 0:10:36.160 That happy in at least four years, but he was 0:10:36.240 --> 0:10:38.480 positively beaming in that photograph. 0:10:38.559 --> 0:10:42.280 He looked so happy. I was honestly shocked. He didn't 0:10:42.280 --> 0:10:45.520 start sniffing Trump's hair or nibbling on his shoulder. 0:10:46.760 --> 0:10:49.839 He was chill, and he was leaning he wanted. 0:10:49.600 --> 0:10:51.960 To get there, but they kept it very cordial, which, 0:10:52.240 --> 0:10:54.680 to be honest, I mean, there definitely is an element 0:10:54.720 --> 0:10:58.679 of self interest here. The Biden's got absolutely slammed by 0:10:58.679 --> 0:11:00.679 the Democrats and completely shafted. 0:11:01.120 --> 0:11:02.360 But it is nice to. 0:11:02.280 --> 0:11:07.839 Actually see political leaders getting along and supposedly respecting one 0:11:07.840 --> 0:11:09.280 another like that was refreshing. 0:11:09.520 --> 0:11:10.199 That was refreshing. 0:11:10.240 --> 0:11:12.000 And the other thing I thought was amazing was just 0:11:12.040 --> 0:11:15.959 how comfortable Joe Biden looked welcoming a fascist who was 0:11:16.000 --> 0:11:19.679 going to absolutely destroy democracy to the White House and saying, look, 0:11:19.720 --> 0:11:22.920 we'll make this transition as peaceful and as easy as possible. 0:11:23.080 --> 0:11:25.280 Let us know what you need so you'd hand. 0:11:25.080 --> 0:11:28.040 Over so easily to add off Hitler. What an amazing thing. 0:11:28.800 --> 0:11:31.000 This is not official, but I have heard rumors of 0:11:31.040 --> 0:11:34.520 some of the discussion. Apparently Joe Biden leaned over to 0:11:34.600 --> 0:11:36.240 Trump and said, hey, listen, I want to make you 0:11:36.280 --> 0:11:38.680 a deal when you get into office if you could 0:11:38.679 --> 0:11:42.560 pardon my son Hunter, and I of course will have 0:11:42.640 --> 0:11:45.360 all the charges dropped against you. And Trump liked the idea, 0:11:45.400 --> 0:11:47.839 but said to Joe Biden, the problem is, in ten 0:11:47.880 --> 0:11:49.520 minutes from now, you'll forget we had. 0:11:49.400 --> 0:11:54.120 This talk, to which Joe Biden said, what talk all all. 0:11:54.160 --> 0:11:57.200 Here's hey, ladies and gentlemen, do not spread that around. 0:11:57.200 --> 0:12:01.400 But a very very funny idea there. The AI world 0:12:01.559 --> 0:12:05.240 has gone absolutely mad after seeing this very friendly visit 0:12:05.679 --> 0:12:09.520 between the incoming and the outgoing president. And if this 0:12:09.640 --> 0:12:11.960 video that you're about to see doesn't convince you that 0:12:12.080 --> 0:12:15.960 AI is completely out of control. This is the mashup 0:12:16.040 --> 0:12:20.280 that the online trolls did up saying these two were 0:12:20.440 --> 0:12:35.360 forced to be enemies but born to be friends. 0:12:36.760 --> 0:12:39.920 Check out those beaming smiles. All the world that we 0:12:40.000 --> 0:12:40.760 could live in. 0:12:41.600 --> 0:12:44.400 It's actually very heartwarming to see, as he said, Ray, 0:12:49.240 --> 0:12:52.480 the whole montage actually goes on for longer and longer, 0:12:52.600 --> 0:12:53.440 like they're both. 0:12:53.240 --> 0:12:55.079 Wearing medieval night armor. 0:12:55.400 --> 0:12:58.959 Like it got absolutely ridiculous, but of course they were 0:12:59.000 --> 0:13:02.640 just taking it to the nth degree. Staying in America now, 0:13:03.160 --> 0:13:06.200 this has got to be We've been introducing you to 0:13:06.400 --> 0:13:09.440 Trump's new appointees as they come to light and what 0:13:09.640 --> 0:13:13.960 absolute legends they are, but none has shocked the establishment 0:13:14.080 --> 0:13:18.520 more than the appointment of Matt Gates to the all 0:13:18.559 --> 0:13:24.560 important position of Attorney General. This has absolutely sent shock 0:13:24.640 --> 0:13:30.200 waves through Washington. This is their worst nightmare confirmed. And 0:13:30.240 --> 0:13:34.640 I tell you what, this guy is an absolute firebrand. 0:13:34.840 --> 0:13:39.079 For years and years prior to entering Congress, he was 0:13:39.120 --> 0:13:44.640 a very tenacious attorney and that is simply the guy's disposition. 0:13:44.840 --> 0:13:45.640 And when he's. 0:13:45.520 --> 0:13:48.920 Cornered by the left, he doesn't back down. This is 0:13:48.920 --> 0:13:52.080 one of my all time favorite Matt Gates clips. If 0:13:52.120 --> 0:13:55.240 you don't know him, just remember this one when he's 0:13:55.280 --> 0:13:59.080 asked by a reporter, I'm you sorry for offending women? 0:14:01.440 --> 0:14:03.240 Is it safe to see that based off of your comments, 0:14:03.280 --> 0:14:06.680 you're suggesting that these women at these abortion rallies are 0:14:06.880 --> 0:14:07.720 ugly and overweet? 0:14:07.920 --> 0:14:10.120 Yes, what do you see to people who. 0:14:10.040 --> 0:14:11.520 Think that those comments are offensive? 0:14:11.960 --> 0:14:12.560 Be offended? 0:14:13.840 --> 0:14:17.400 Now you may think that's hah, sure, okay, but this 0:14:17.640 --> 0:14:20.840 is what we need to see in conservatives. We always 0:14:20.880 --> 0:14:24.640 say every capitulation to the left emboldens them. 0:14:24.720 --> 0:14:27.320 This guy just backs himself. Be offended. 0:14:27.520 --> 0:14:31.440 What's going to happen, Beryl? Absolutely nothing? Did you mean 0:14:31.480 --> 0:14:38.280 what you said? Yes, do not capitulate, Just back yourself in. Also, 0:14:38.600 --> 0:14:41.320 Elon Musk has got a great friend in this guy, 0:14:41.400 --> 0:14:45.080 because as Attorney General, he's all about cutting the fat 0:14:45.480 --> 0:14:49.800 out of government departments. Elon Musk has famously said, we 0:14:49.920 --> 0:14:54.640 currently have around four hundred and thirty government agencies, and 0:14:54.760 --> 0:14:57.920 I think ninety nine sounds like a great number. Well, 0:14:57.960 --> 0:15:02.120 here's Matt Gates talking at SEE last year. I don't 0:15:02.160 --> 0:15:05.560 know about you, but I think he's in furious agreement. 0:15:06.920 --> 0:15:10.440 Seems like every time I turn around, they're engaged in 0:15:10.640 --> 0:15:14.920 surveillance or list building or monitoring. And I don't care 0:15:15.040 --> 0:15:18.440 if it takes every second of our time and every 0:15:18.480 --> 0:15:21.480 ounce of our energy. We either get this government back 0:15:21.520 --> 0:15:24.840 on our side, or we defund and get rid of, 0:15:25.080 --> 0:15:32.560 abolish the FBI, CDC, ATFDJ, every last one of them. 0:15:32.920 --> 0:15:34.800 If they do not come to heal. 0:15:35.600 --> 0:15:36.680 Let's get them all. 0:15:36.720 --> 0:15:38.680 And if you want to see him in action on 0:15:38.960 --> 0:15:42.760 the job, you actually may remember this clip that you're 0:15:42.800 --> 0:15:46.280 about to see. This is when the government we're taking 0:15:46.480 --> 0:15:50.840 the FBI to task on this atrocious cover up that 0:15:50.880 --> 0:15:55.360 they undeniably did when it came to the Hunter Biden 0:15:55.680 --> 0:15:57.440 laptop scandal. 0:15:57.680 --> 0:15:59.240 This is Matt Gets in action. 0:16:00.560 --> 0:16:03.640 I have other questions. I'm sitting here with my father. 0:16:04.440 --> 0:16:06.800 I will make certain that between the man sitting next 0:16:06.840 --> 0:16:08.960 to me and every person he knows, and my ability 0:16:09.000 --> 0:16:11.880 to forever hold a grudge that you will regret not 0:16:12.120 --> 0:16:15.520 following my direction. I am sitting here waiting for the 0:16:15.600 --> 0:16:20.080 call with my father. Sounds like a shakedown, doesn't a director. 0:16:22.480 --> 0:16:23.880 I'm not going to get into company with that. 0:16:24.400 --> 0:16:28.240 You you seem deeply uncurious about it, don't you? Almost 0:16:28.240 --> 0:16:30.720 suspiciously uncurious? Are you protecting the bidens? 0:16:31.480 --> 0:16:33.520 Absolutely not the FBI. 0:16:35.120 --> 0:16:39.040 Anti that's a shakedown, And everybody knows why you won't 0:16:39.080 --> 0:16:41.840 answer it because to the millions of people who will 0:16:41.840 --> 0:16:44.520 see this, they know it is. And your inability to 0:16:44.560 --> 0:16:48.480 acknowledge that is deeply revealing about you. You preside over 0:16:48.640 --> 0:16:51.720 the FBI that has the lowest level of trust in 0:16:51.800 --> 0:16:55.640 the FBI's history. People trusted the FBI when Jaye Ercover 0:16:55.800 --> 0:16:57.360 was running the place than when you are. And the 0:16:57.400 --> 0:16:59.320 reason is because you don't get straight answers. 0:16:59.560 --> 0:17:03.200 You That FBI director was a grease spot on the 0:17:03.240 --> 0:17:05.240 carpet by the time Matt Gates had. 0:17:05.119 --> 0:17:06.320 Gotten through with him. 0:17:06.359 --> 0:17:10.280 Now, this is a very controversial pick. If you're a lefty, 0:17:10.359 --> 0:17:13.960 this is your worst nightmare come true. And there's all 0:17:13.960 --> 0:17:18.080 these objections going online. People are having absolute meltdowns. And 0:17:18.119 --> 0:17:21.400 I loved elon mouth Sweet today where he was replying 0:17:21.400 --> 0:17:25.800 to the ball saying, the hammer of justice is coming, 0:17:25.880 --> 0:17:27.800 because that's what Gates is known for. 0:17:28.400 --> 0:17:31.960 The Wall Street Journal they were particularly scathing about this pick. 0:17:32.000 --> 0:17:34.560 They said, he's a nominee for those who want to 0:17:34.680 --> 0:17:39.199 use the law for political revenge. What have you been 0:17:39.240 --> 0:17:42.720 paying attention for the last four years? That's the reason 0:17:42.800 --> 0:17:46.280 Trump has appointed this guy, because the DOJ had become 0:17:46.480 --> 0:17:51.840 under the Biden administration so politicized. Trump is doing exactly 0:17:51.920 --> 0:17:54.840 what he said he would do and exactly what the 0:17:54.880 --> 0:17:56.480 American people voted for. 0:17:56.520 --> 0:18:00.520 And he's appointing people in charge of intelligence. 0:18:00.119 --> 0:18:03.119 Get to Tulsi Gabbard in a moment, in charge of 0:18:03.160 --> 0:18:05.840 the military and in charge of the DOJ, who are 0:18:05.880 --> 0:18:10.159 deeply suspicious of these institutions. But if you're going to 0:18:10.240 --> 0:18:14.000 drain the swamp, then you can't have establishment people. You've 0:18:14.000 --> 0:18:16.439 got to have outsiders who come in and are prepared 0:18:16.480 --> 0:18:19.240 to get their hands dirty. And so you would expect 0:18:19.320 --> 0:18:23.400 pushback from the media and from public servants and those involved. Yeah, 0:18:23.520 --> 0:18:25.880 but I think Americans they voted for change, they want 0:18:25.880 --> 0:18:26.240 to see it. 0:18:26.320 --> 0:18:27.960 Trump's going to do it exactly. 0:18:28.040 --> 0:18:30.920 And I think perhaps the mistake Trump made last time 0:18:31.080 --> 0:18:34.040 was going for too many of these establishment types and 0:18:34.119 --> 0:18:37.280 putting them in senior leadership positions. But if he wants 0:18:37.320 --> 0:18:40.520 to make the radical change that America is crying out 0:18:40.560 --> 0:18:44.520 for desperately, you need to take radical measures, and that 0:18:44.640 --> 0:18:47.840 might actually include putting people into power who actually are 0:18:47.920 --> 0:18:52.840 committed to the vision that Americans elected by an overwhelming 0:18:53.160 --> 0:18:55.959 majority at all three levels the House, the Senate, and 0:18:56.000 --> 0:18:58.840 the popular vote, and so Americans. 0:18:58.280 --> 0:19:00.680 Voted for this, this is what they should get. 0:19:00.800 --> 0:19:03.320 And I think there are a lot of lessons Australia 0:19:03.440 --> 0:19:08.160 can actually learn from this in having rain in government bureaucracies, 0:19:08.200 --> 0:19:11.640 because seriously, as you actually dig into the data, into 0:19:11.680 --> 0:19:13.840 the budgets and you look at the kinds of things 0:19:14.080 --> 0:19:16.720 even we here in Australia spend money on, it is 0:19:16.920 --> 0:19:21.000 genuinely insane. There are a lot of bureaucrats benefiting off 0:19:21.160 --> 0:19:25.080 the gravy train of taxpayer dollars. There are some great bureaucrats, 0:19:25.080 --> 0:19:27.960 for sure, But I think Elon Musk is right when 0:19:27.960 --> 0:19:30.520 he says you could probably cut a quarter of all 0:19:30.560 --> 0:19:34.200 government spending, and no one with three quarters realize he's 0:19:34.240 --> 0:19:36.040 talking cutting three quarters. 0:19:36.119 --> 0:19:37.720 In matter fairness to. 0:19:37.720 --> 0:19:40.240 Trump, It's true that a lot of his appointments first 0:19:40.320 --> 0:19:41.280 time around. 0:19:40.960 --> 0:19:43.960 Were pretty like Rah really made what are you doing? 0:19:44.400 --> 0:19:46.200 But he was a stranger to Washington. 0:19:46.280 --> 0:19:47.800 He wasn't even supposed to win. 0:19:48.480 --> 0:19:51.200 So when the president comes in, he's supposed to have 0:19:51.400 --> 0:19:56.000 ten thousand staff lined up, bombs in seats, ready to go, 0:19:56.560 --> 0:19:59.639 and so first time he kind of floundered. But this 0:19:59.800 --> 0:20:03.000 is such a revenge appointment because remember it was Matt 0:20:03.119 --> 0:20:07.160 Gates who was investigated for sex trafficking of all things, 0:20:07.200 --> 0:20:11.240 just a few years ago by the Department of Justice. 0:20:11.320 --> 0:20:14.240 Remember what I told you the jokes in the name. 0:20:14.720 --> 0:20:17.960 And now as part of his appointment, guess what comes 0:20:18.040 --> 0:20:22.960 under him the Department of Justice. Trump's mandate reads, Matt 0:20:23.000 --> 0:20:27.080 will root out the systemic eruption at the DOJ and 0:20:27.160 --> 0:20:30.560 return the department to its true mission of fighting crime 0:20:30.600 --> 0:20:35.600 and upholding our democracy and constitution. But speaking of revenge picks, 0:20:36.080 --> 0:20:40.760 Tolci Gubbard has gone from being on a terror watch 0:20:40.960 --> 0:20:46.159 list because keep track here, so Matt Gates being an 0:20:46.200 --> 0:20:49.000 actual gun, they want to take him out, so they 0:20:49.040 --> 0:20:55.320 come out with these ridiculous trafficking allegations. They put Tolci Gubbard, 0:20:55.359 --> 0:20:58.600 who is a war vet. She's done several tools. She's 0:20:58.640 --> 0:21:03.040 an incredible woman. Former Democrat or Hawaii, former Democrats. She's 0:21:03.040 --> 0:21:05.000 one of the ones who said I'm leaving the Dems. 0:21:05.240 --> 0:21:10.640 I'm running for the Republicans. Now she is now Director 0:21:10.920 --> 0:21:15.560 of National Intelligence. I love these revenge picks because Trump 0:21:15.640 --> 0:21:18.680 knows that these guys who have been prosecuted by the 0:21:18.800 --> 0:21:23.600 very agencies that he needs to gut and transform completely, 0:21:24.040 --> 0:21:27.200 people who have been hurt by them so unjustly. They're 0:21:27.240 --> 0:21:28.840 the perfect people for the job. 0:21:29.200 --> 0:21:32.359 She also has the distinction not only of having been 0:21:32.400 --> 0:21:34.320 on a terror watch list. Now she's in charge of 0:21:34.359 --> 0:21:38.960 America's seventeen intelligence agencies, and she also is famous for 0:21:38.960 --> 0:21:41.840 getting more votes in a Democratic primary than Kamala. 0:21:41.480 --> 0:21:43.720 Harris ever got. So there's that as well. 0:21:43.960 --> 0:21:47.280 But I think John Fetterman, the Democratic Senator, he summed 0:21:47.320 --> 0:21:49.159 it up best, and he's probably the smartest of all 0:21:49.200 --> 0:21:52.680 the Democrats these days. He knows exactly what Donald Trump 0:21:52.800 --> 0:21:53.160 is doing. 0:21:53.160 --> 0:21:53.640 Have a listen. 0:21:55.200 --> 0:21:58.040 I mean it's I would describe it as guard to 0:21:58.119 --> 0:22:03.159
