It features an Irish band praising Hamas and 16 00:00:54,640 --> 00:01:06,560 Speaker 3: his buller. But first, a women will Speak rally in 17 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:11,760 Speaker 3: Melbourne organized by Women's Voices Australia descended into chaos on 18 00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:16,760 Speaker 3: the weekend after it was disrupted by a protrans counter protest, 19 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:18,880 Speaker 3: which quickly became violent. 20 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 4: Street fights breakout in the city fists fly as transgender 21 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 4: rights protesters and opponents scuffle in skirmishes. Capsico spray used 22 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 4: to disperse crowds. A women's rights protest was organized for 23 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 4: midday at Parliament. 24 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:39,399 Speaker 5: It's women who are losing their rights, not. 25 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:46,040 Speaker 3: People who have a gender identity. Women's spaces, women's sports 26 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 3: men are encroaching on all of that. 27 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 5: It is frightening. 28 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 6: I found it very difficult to walk past those people. 29 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:59,160 Speaker 3: They are rabbit. Joining me now senior fellow and chief 30 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 3: economists of the IPA, Adam Cricht and Adam. There was 31 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 3: four hours of utter mayhem in Melbourne. Roads were blocked, 32 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 3: public transport was disrupted, widespread violence and I haven't heard 33 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 3: condemnation yet. I may have missed it from the premiere 34 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 3: from the Prime Minister. There seems to be just this 35 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,639 Speaker 3: tolerance of left wing violence. Yeah. 36 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:25,520 Speaker 2: Well, actually I ended up in that protest. 37 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 7: Finally enough the transfer part of the violence walked around 38 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 7: the corner and something. I was surrounded by all these 39 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,679 Speaker 7: rabid people. That lady certainly used the right work. It 40 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 7: was shocking how vicious and horrible these people were. I 41 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 7: was actually very depressed about Melbourne actually watching it all. 42 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 7: They were spitting at police, pushing police, screaming at police. 43 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 3: And yet there was only a couple of arrests. When 44 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 3: you're talking about four hours of mayhem, of just lawlessness, 45 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 3: I don't know how you can have just two arrests. 46 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 3: You saw them literally spitting on police, yep. 47 00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 2: Well one person did. 48 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 7: They tried to break into the voter fora in store, 49 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,639 Speaker 7: strangely on the corner, but just on your broader point, Yeah, 50 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,640 Speaker 7: we always hear about far right this, far right that, 51 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 7: but you know one of these people, these are extreme 52 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,920 Speaker 7: far left, and you never hear it called out. So 53 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 7: it's extraordinary double standard and it's very depressing. These people 54 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,079 Speaker 7: are extremists in the true sense of the word. I 55 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,799 Speaker 7: think they're very aggressive and can be dangerous. And finally, 56 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 7: they're all wearing their COVID masks, and I'm not sure 57 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 7: whether they're still scared of the virus or virtue. 58 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,079 Speaker 2: Signaling, or they just don't want to show their identity. 59 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,800 Speaker 3: I think it's a little from column A and B 60 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:34,559 Speaker 3: and C because I think given some of the antics 61 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 3: that rather not be identified by police, they. 62 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 2: Don't have jobs, so it's they're probably not concerned about it. 63 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 3: And this protest was a three ProMED protests, so that 64 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 3: we're there because the women were holding a women's rights rally, 65 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 3: so of course that can't be allowed in Melbourne. But 66 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 3: they were also an anti Israel protest amongst them, and 67 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 3: also an anti police one because there was a police 68 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 3: shooting in Melbourne about a week ago. So it just 69 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 3: shows you it's the same leftist crowd. Whether it's an 70 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 3: anti police rally, whether it's an environmental rally, whether it's 71 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 3: a trans rally, it's the same usual suspects. 72 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 7: Yeah, the police did a good job too, I must 73 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 7: say they're putting up with a lot. They were very 74 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:18,400 Speaker 7: calm under pressure, and you know, I felt sorry for them. 75 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 3: Actually sometimes I'd like them to sort of show the 76 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:24,479 Speaker 3: attitude they showed with the anti lockdown protesters, with these 77 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 3: protesters that they arguably went in very hard. Not arguably, 78 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 3: they did go in very hard with what were peaceful 79 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 3: protests during lockdown, and now they have a very permissive attitude. Indeed, 80 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,040 Speaker 3: also more controversy in Melbourne. I'm going to be talking 81 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 3: to a professor Ian Plimer about this later, but I 82 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 3: am interested in your thoughts on the ANZAC service, the 83 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 3: Dawn service being disrupted in Melbourne when the Welcome to 84 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 3: Country was underway. It was a five minute long welcome 85 00:04:56,760 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 3: to country. What do you make of the controversy? And 86 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,479 Speaker 3: it should also be noted that along with the five 87 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 3: minute long official welcome to country one thousand dollars a minute, apparently, 88 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 3: there was also the MC who had an acknowledgment of country, 89 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 3: and also the governor added an acknowledgment of country. So 90 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:23,160 Speaker 3: it was a lot What are your thoughts about? What 91 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 3: about the whole thing? 92 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,599 Speaker 7: What shocked me was that both sides of politics basically 93 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,360 Speaker 7: defended the Welcome to country at the ENZAC service when 94 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 7: they must know that the vast. 95 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 2: Majority of Australians would not think it's appropriate. 96 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 7: Look, I don't know if there's been surveys on that, 97 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,160 Speaker 7: but I would bet one thousand dollars that the majority 98 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 7: would say on ANZAC Day it's not appropriate. And what 99 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 7: i'd certainly bet a lot more on is that if 100 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 7: you surveyed veterans, or surveyed our men and women in 101 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 7: the armed forces now, they would also say it's not 102 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:51,720 Speaker 7: appropriate on ANZAC Day because you know, to welcome soldiers 103 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 7: to the country that they defended is somewhat ridiculous, and 104 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:56,039 Speaker 7: I do think the broader point, we just have so 105 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 7: many of these things it's becoming a joke. You know, 106 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,600 Speaker 7: the plane lands as a welcome to country, plane takes 107 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 7: off as well in the country, you know, an Zac 108 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:04,279 Speaker 7: Day before, every. 109 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 3: Single before every meeting, sometimes multiple announcements during meetings. I mean, 110 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 3: it's beyond absurd. I've always said is a PC way 111 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 3: of saying, go back to where you came from. I 112 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:21,480 Speaker 3: find it, as a migrant very offensive. It's pretty telling 113 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,599 Speaker 3: me this isn't my land because I'm not entitled to 114 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 3: see Australia as fully my home because of my ethnicity. 115 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 3: I mean, how is that anything other than racial? Extremely 116 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 3: it is, Yeah, I know. 117 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 7: Just to give you an anecdote, when I landed in 118 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 7: Australia for I spent four years in the US, it 119 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 7: was a Quanters flight. 120 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 2: There was a welcome to country when I landed. I've 121 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:43,559 Speaker 2: never experienced that before. 122 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 7: This is in Sydney, this is back in January, and 123 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:47,360 Speaker 7: I thought, you know, honestly, like seven of my eight 124 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 7: great great grandparents were born in Australia and I'm being 125 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:50,720 Speaker 7: welcome to. 126 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 3: Where will you not be have to be welcome where? 127 00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 3: Is actually home exactly coming. Come on, now, let's watch here. 128 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:04,720 Speaker 3: As three right wing activists from the National Workers Alliance 129 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:08,279 Speaker 3: launched a protest at a Friends of the ABC event 130 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 3: attended by til MP Monique Ryan. Naturally, the response of 131 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 3: some of the lefties there was to get very upset 132 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 3: and one of them hit, ran and hit one of 133 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 3: these protesters. Now, Monique Ryan, instead of perhaps admonishing this 134 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 3: woman for that act of violence, is quick to comfort 135 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 3: her and give her a hug. 136 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 8: Have a look at this, Oh, there is Monique coming 137 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 8: in for the hug the group hug. 138 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 3: Look. I don't even know who these protesters were, what 139 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 3: they were saying. That's not the point, right obviously, But 140 00:07:56,080 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 3: why is someone running up to someone and punching them. 141 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 2: It's crazy, it's funny. Actually, it's a little old. 142 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 3: It was a little old. It's just not going to 143 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 3: do much damage. But I mean, really, again, if the 144 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 3: cases were reversed, it was a far left activist who 145 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 3: wasn't being violent but being punched by somebody, and the 146 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 3: conservative politician went in and hugged the person throwing the punch, 147 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 3: it would be front page news. People would be irate. 148 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:27,240 Speaker 3: But we're just laughing. At this that's right. 149 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 7: It's just, you know, the inherent bias of the media. 150 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 7: Eighty percent of journalists folk one way, and it chose 151 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 7: in the. 152 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 3: Reporting absolutely Now to more serious matter. Despite vehement opposition 153 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:41,439 Speaker 3: from Victoria Police, registered sex offenders in Victoria are successfully 154 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 3: applying to have lifelong reporting conditions lifted, with some even 155 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 3: winning the right to live next to Victorians schools. As 156 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 3: a report from the Herald Sun, recent cases include a 157 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 3: foster carer who raped a fifteen year old in his care, 158 00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 3: but has now successfully argued that ongo reporting conditions have 159 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 3: become onerous. The man known as GT, has argued he 160 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 3: wanted to travel freely into state to visit his parents 161 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:12,840 Speaker 3: and honeymoon overseas with a new partner, Adam. The judge 162 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:16,960 Speaker 3: in that case determined that while GT's offending was very serious, 163 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 3: it was in the public interest to ease his reporting obligations. 164 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,559 Speaker 3: I'm not sure about that rationale. Maybe you can explain it. 165 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 7: Well, it's certainly not in the public interest. Look, I 166 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 7: mean there's a difficult force. This is a difficult philosophical issue. 167 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:33,679 Speaker 7: You know, people serve their time, should they still have 168 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 7: various conditions attached to them? But I do think in 169 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 7: the case of sexual abuse of children, you do forfeit 170 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 7: your rights, I think somewhat permanently when you commit these crimes, 171 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 7: and you have to understand that the rest of the 172 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:45,320 Speaker 7: community would like to know where you are or at 173 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 7: least generally, and there should be some restrictions. I mean, 174 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,839 Speaker 7: I'm not a criminologist, but my understanding is the rehabilitation 175 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:53,080 Speaker 7: rates of this class of crime is not great. 176 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 9: Well. 177 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 3: I think if the police vehemently against it, that should 178 00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:59,719 Speaker 3: tell us something because I don't think there are a 179 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 3: signing up to do more work. I think they're concerned 180 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 3: because they think there will be some sort of reoffending, 181 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 3: or at least a risk of reoffending. Now let's talk 182 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 3: about what's happening in Queensland, and new figures from the 183 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 3: government are showing that the tough on crime approach with 184 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:22,320 Speaker 3: youth offenders is working. They've got these new adult crime 185 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 3: adult time laws. There's been a thirty two percent drop 186 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 3: in cases against children charge with at least one of 187 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 3: the thirteen offenses that are included in these laws. So 188 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 3: we've had quite a dramatic drop there, Adam, and I 189 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 3: think it just shows that though tough on crime measures 190 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:45,559 Speaker 3: are enormously unpopular with the activists who work in that sector. 191 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 3: They actually work, No, they do work. 192 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:49,880 Speaker 2: And they've worked all around the world for many decades. 193 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 2: We know this. 194 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 7: Economists not this. They test this some in New York's 195 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 7: a classic example. There was the huge crime waves in 196 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:56,599 Speaker 7: the seventies and eighties. The new mayor came in, it 197 00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 7: got very tough and the crime went way down. 198 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:00,719 Speaker 2: So this is this is a good thing. 199 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 7: I think, well done to the Queensland government. And what 200 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 7: a contrast with Victoria. 201 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 2: I think they maybe need a bit of the. 202 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 7: Queensland attitude down here where crime has been increasing. So yeah, 203 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 7: so I think it's job well done. I mean I 204 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 7: was a little bit surprised actually just these youth offenders. 205 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 7: I don't think they're the smartest kids in the world. 206 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 7: I'm shocked if they even know what penalties are. But anyway, 207 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 7: maybe they've looked into it. 208 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:24,559 Speaker 3: Now before you go, we've just had the long weekend. 209 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 3: We've had two consecutive long weekends. A lot of people 210 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 3: have paid surcharges when they've been out dining and the 211 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 3: Prime Minister has had his say about this issue. He 212 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 3: says this supports the rights of workers to earn penalty rates, 213 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,199 Speaker 3: is all for that, but he doesn't think businesses should 214 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 3: be charging these public holiday surcharges to cover the increased 215 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 3: wages bill. I mean, this is just another sign to 216 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 3: me that the Prime Minister perhaps is economically illiterate. How 217 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 3: can you have these enormous cost imposed on small businesses, 218 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 3: little cafes, restaurants paying around eighty dollars an hour for 219 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 3: people waiting, and how can they absorb that without passing 220 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 3: it on? 221 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 5: Yeah? 222 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 7: Well, actually I was at a bar in Melbourne on 223 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,200 Speaker 7: Friday and the head bartender was telling me all the 224 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:17,240 Speaker 7: staff were earning seventy two dollars an hour because an. 225 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 3: Hour I had these sashes were earning seventy two dollars 226 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 3: an hour on the weekend in Victoria. 227 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:23,720 Speaker 7: So of course they have to pass it on to 228 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 7: some extent. And the fifteen percent, by the way, is 229 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,200 Speaker 7: a lot less than the added costs, so their margins 230 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 7: would be a lot smaller that day. 231 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 3: Well, it's basically you either shut up shop or you 232 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 3: have to have the surcharge. I mean, no one likes 233 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,320 Speaker 3: getting that surprise on their bill and off when it 234 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,679 Speaker 3: is a surprise you missed the little note on the 235 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 3: menu that tells you it exists. But I don't think 236 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 3: you can be blaming the cafe owners for being greedy 237 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 3: in that instance. Adam Krista, thanks bittime tonight, Thanks for now. 238 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:54,280 Speaker 3: The latest news poll out today has revealed that while 239 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:57,960 Speaker 3: almost half the country believes the Albanezi government doesn't deserve 240 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 3: another term, even more people believe that the coalition isn't 241 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 3: ready to return to power, with the major party's primary 242 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 3: votes remaining unchanged from the last poll, with a two 243 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 3: party preferred figure stuck at fifty two forty eight percent 244 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:16,680 Speaker 3: in Labour's favor. And that's actually an improvement for labor 245 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 3: on the twenty twenty two election result. Let's bring in 246 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 3: a esteem geologist and author, Professor Ian Plymer, Professor, the 247 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:30,599 Speaker 3: opposition leader is still confident of victory. Is that confidence misplaced? 248 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 10: Perhaps? 249 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:36,680 Speaker 6: But one has to have a lot of faith in 250 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 6: the polls. I'm not so sure I do. This is 251 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:44,720 Speaker 6: a elect by electorate, a campaign. There are some seats 252 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,560 Speaker 6: that will go against the national trend. There are others 253 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 6: that will go with it or follow the polls. Now, 254 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 6: we have a situation in this country where we used 255 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 6: to have two major parties and the ILP is the 256 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 6: political wing of the unions. Have so few people that 257 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:04,680 Speaker 6: are in unions now and the ALP has performed so badly. 258 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:07,959 Speaker 6: The people are leaving the Alps. They've gone to one nation, 259 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 6: some Family First people. Actually we're once ALP people. For example, 260 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:16,680 Speaker 6: Family First in this state is run by the former 261 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:21,560 Speaker 6: Labor State treasurer. So Labour has lost people. The Libs 262 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 6: have lost people. They've lost people into Libertarians, into one nation, 263 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 6: into Family First and perhaps living the Parment party. So 264 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 6: the game has changed a lot, and we now rely 265 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 6: on preferences. We really have no idea how they're going 266 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 6: to go. And I think a hung parliament is going 267 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 6: to be the worst thing for this country because we 268 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 6: will be making decisions that are very very few people 269 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,840 Speaker 6: will be pushing for very hard, and they will be 270 00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 6: against what the nation really requires. The best thing can 271 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,680 Speaker 6: happen would be the ALP to win outright or the 272 00:14:56,760 --> 00:15:00,520 Speaker 6: Libs to win outright. But a hung parliament will not 273 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 6: help this country. 274 00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 3: And particularly if the Greens hold a balance of power 275 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 3: or even some of those tills, I think either case 276 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 3: would be a disaster. 277 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 10: Now. 278 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:14,760 Speaker 3: Peter Darton has done a bit of a u turn 279 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 3: in the space of forty eight hours on the Welcome 280 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 3: to Country ceremony and the controversy that was sparked over 281 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 3: the weekend or over ANZAC Day. I should say he 282 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 3: initially said this after the ANZAC Day ceremony was disrupted. 283 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 11: Welcome the Country is an important part of efficient ceremonies 284 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 11: and it should be respected. 285 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 6: And I don't agree with the doing, and I don't agree. 286 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 11: In our democracy the people can't accept the user and 287 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:46,960 Speaker 11: the others. 288 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 3: But last night, during the debate with the Prime Minister, 289 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 3: he had this to say. 290 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:55,920 Speaker 11: For the opening of Parliament, fair enough, it's respectful to do. 291 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 11: But for the start of every meeting at work or 292 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 11: the stuff out of a football game, I think a 293 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 11: lot of Australians think it's overdone and it cheapens the 294 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 11: significance of what it was meant to do. It divides 295 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 11: the country. 296 00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 2: Not dissimilar to the Prime mister. 297 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 3: Look, I don't know why you didn't just say that 298 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 3: to begin with. You could condemn the ANZAC service being 299 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 3: disrupted without backing the Welcome to Country, which you did 300 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 3: in that first clip, saying was an important part of 301 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:27,680 Speaker 3: the ceremony had to be respected. There's an online poll 302 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:32,720 Speaker 3: that's just been published. Over fifty thousand Australians participated, and 303 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 3: ninety percent of them want to see less or no 304 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:40,160 Speaker 3: more welcome to country ceremonies. The poll had sixty seven 305 00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:45,479 Speaker 3: percent saying that wants welcome to country ceremonies to stop completely, 306 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 3: while another twenty three percent said they want to see 307 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 3: less of them. I would have thought this is a 308 00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 3: fairly clear cut issue, particularly if you're the conservative candidate. 309 00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 3: But I there just seems to be a reluctance to 310 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 3: take a firm position on this. 311 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,360 Speaker 6: Well, people who had a gut full of welcome to country. 312 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:07,320 Speaker 6: You can't move without having a welcome to country. We 313 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 6: should be opening Parliament with a prayer, not a welcome 314 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 6: to country. That's happened for generations. You cannot travel an 315 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:17,359 Speaker 6: aeroplane without getting some sort of political propaganda as you 316 00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:21,440 Speaker 6: land on an international flight. You come in from well, 317 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:23,800 Speaker 6: I came in from Dallas Fort Worth not so long ago. 318 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,359 Speaker 6: The plane was full of Americans and they get a 319 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:29,120 Speaker 6: welcome to country. I mean, they have no idea what 320 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:33,119 Speaker 6: this means. It's absolute total nonsense. Now people have had 321 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 6: enough and The only place I can go to and 322 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,639 Speaker 6: be guaranteed of not getting a welcomed to country isn'to 323 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 6: my local pub. I might get welcomed as a creditor 324 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:46,840 Speaker 6: to pay off my tab, but you can virtually not 325 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 6: move without having. 326 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:49,479 Speaker 2: A welcome to country. 327 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:52,360 Speaker 6: I'm over it. I'm thick of it. Well, I think 328 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:53,639 Speaker 6: most of the population is. 329 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:57,879 Speaker 3: I think you're one hundred percent right about most of 330 00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:00,040 Speaker 3: the country being sick of it. And it's something that 331 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 3: Senator just Enter Price has spoken about, and she is 332 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 3: very articulate on the issue, and I don't know why 333 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 3: we're not seeing more of her during this election campaign, 334 00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:14,639 Speaker 3: particularly talking about these sorts of issues. Now, before you 335 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 3: go pitter. Dutton was booed after he refused to do 336 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 3: a showy on Anzac Day at a RSL in Townsville. 337 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 3: Oh and it's a bit of fun, But I can 338 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,119 Speaker 3: see why you refuse. I could just see him copying 339 00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:51,399 Speaker 3: all sorts of criticism backlash for glorifying drinking culture if 340 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:53,960 Speaker 3: he actually did it. But I think it would have 341 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 3: endeared him to young male voters, and I think he's 342 00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 3: got to stop worrying about a backlash from people who 343 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:03,160 Speaker 3: are never going to vote for him anyway. 344 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 6: Well, North Queen's Land's a bit different from the rest 345 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 6: of Australia. Their hairy chest and real people. If you 346 00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 6: can knock off half a dozen pints in ten minutes, 347 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 6: you are one of them. And Bob Hawk understood that 348 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:20,199 Speaker 6: he was able to compete with the best. He had 349 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 6: a period of abstinence, well so he says, but then 350 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,200 Speaker 6: was back on it again. So I think that does 351 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 6: connect with the working man in North Queensland. They actually 352 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:34,359 Speaker 6: connect with people who speak their language. Perhaps it was 353 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:37,040 Speaker 6: a mistake, perhaps it wasn't. I don't think it's important. 354 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 6: The important thing is the matters of principle that mister 355 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:44,440 Speaker 6: Dutton has to stand up for. And these are the 356 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 6: situations that people find themselves in, being unable to pay 357 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 6: their electricity bill, unable to buy food, unable to pay rent, 358 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 6: never able to buy a house. 359 00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:56,639 Speaker 3: These are issues which affect. 360 00:19:56,320 --> 00:20:01,680 Speaker 6: Everyone and just having a drink, you know, that's not important, 361 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:04,920 Speaker 6: but the legacy media want to harp on with this 362 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:08,200 Speaker 6: and keep away from the major issues. The major issues 363 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 6: are that if we have a labor coalition with the Greens, 364 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:16,119 Speaker 6: then this country really goes backward economically. We're on that 365 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 6: path already. 366 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:23,200 Speaker 3: Let's stop it, Professor Employmer, thanks for your time. Thank 367 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:26,879 Speaker 3: you still to carm Left is Losing It? Plus the 368 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 3: latest from the US, from the arrest of judges hiding 369 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 3: criminals to the fake news about Donald Trump's blue suit, 370 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 3: the Great Josh Hammer as the latest. You're watching the 371 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:49,159 Speaker 3: reader panning your show, and it's time for left is 372 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:52,919 Speaker 3: Losing It And let's start with a musical flavor. And 373 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 3: it seems that leftism destroys everything. Even the biggest superstars 374 00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 3: like Beyonce and Katie Perry become figures of ridicule in 375 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:05,720 Speaker 3: twenty twenty five. Let's start with Katie, who, fresh from 376 00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:08,879 Speaker 3: pretending to be an astronaut, is now being mocked for 377 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 3: her cringe performance in her latest concertour. Did she leave 378 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:33,880 Speaker 3: any discernible talent she had in space? I mean, imagine 379 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:35,520 Speaker 3: paying good money to see this. 380 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:52,200 Speaker 5: Now. 381 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 3: She never had much of a voice, but if that's 382 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,359 Speaker 3: how she dances nowadays, I think we can give the 383 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:01,119 Speaker 3: concert a miss. You can't odo tune whatever that now? 384 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 3: I do. Wonder where did it all go so wrong 385 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 3: for Katie? Perhaps it was on election Eve last November 386 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:09,200 Speaker 3: when she posted. 387 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 12: This PI guys, I'm with one of my favorite senators. 388 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 3: This is Kamala Harris. She's going to be well, or 389 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:19,520 Speaker 3: perhaps it all went pear shape when she posted this 390 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:24,199 Speaker 3: on election dates, her Orlando bloom chumming it up with 391 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:35,760 Speaker 3: Kamala and Doug Oh dear. Now Paul Katie is reduced 392 00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 3: to a punchline, and she's not alone. Pop stars don't 393 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:42,560 Speaker 3: come much bigger than Beyonce. But then she went all 394 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 3: Kamala on us. Remember that woeful speech she gave at 395 00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:49,399 Speaker 3: a Kamala rally When people thought she was going to perform, 396 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 3: they thought they were going to get a free concert. Instead, 397 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:56,000 Speaker 3: they heard Beyonce mention a bunch of suburbs in Texas. 398 00:22:55,800 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 9: Texans and Houstonians from Thurlward River Books, Sugarman, Bit bore 399 00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 9: Ailey Memorial, Southwestern North sign Alloway down. 400 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 3: To Moll City, and now no one wants to go 401 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 3: to her concerts. Daily Mail's headline reads, Beyonce mercilessly mocked 402 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 3: as tickets for flop Cowboy Carter Tour reached the same 403 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:32,119 Speaker 3: price as a McDonald's meal. Yes, she's slash ticket prices 404 00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:35,760 Speaker 3: by more than seventy percent and still having trouble moving them. 405 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 3: Now to round up our little musical interlude, let's check 406 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,159 Speaker 3: in with these charmers. I played this clip for you 407 00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:47,439 Speaker 3: when it happened. Here is Kneecap at Coachella singing Maggie 408 00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 3: is in a Box, a song about the late great 409 00:23:50,560 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 3: Margaret Thatcher. Well, they've gone from that degeneracy to this. 410 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:12,640 Speaker 3: Now Kneecap are openly praising the savage mass murdering terrorists 411 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:25,240 Speaker 3: of her mass. Oh, yes, you heard right. They just 412 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:29,480 Speaker 3: praise Hezbollah and her mask And they have the simpletons 413 00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:32,879 Speaker 3: at a music festival cheering for the type of people 414 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 3: who slaughtered youngsters just like them at the Nova Music Festival. 415 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 3: The Palastinians have. 416 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 13: Home and they're balling them from this. 417 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:45,119 Speaker 3: Guys, if you're not calling it a Jana said, what 418 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 3: are you calling it. 419 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 4: Now? 420 00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:52,159 Speaker 3: If the left didn't have double standards, that have no 421 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:55,359 Speaker 3: standards at all. And here is another prime example. This 422 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 3: is Andrew Weisman claiming that Trump being targeted with Vogue 423 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:03,000 Speaker 3: charges in a shocking case of law fare. Well, that 424 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:05,440 Speaker 3: was a great day for America because it proved no 425 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 3: one is above the law. But when an activist judge 426 00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:13,040 Speaker 3: breaks real laws, well, their rest is a violation. 427 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 12: He is being treated no better or worse than anyone else. 428 00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:21,840 Speaker 12: This is not selective prosecution. That this is not somebody 429 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:25,200 Speaker 12: who singled out that he is being treated just like 430 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 12: anyone else. 431 00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:29,080 Speaker 5: That is what it means to have a rule of law. 432 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:32,480 Speaker 12: That is what the justice periment is really singling and 433 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 12: messaging here is that everyone will be treated as Merrick 434 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 12: Garland has said, as equally in this country. This is 435 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 12: really really a great day for America. So there has 436 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,639 Speaker 12: been a violation here that we know for sure, and 437 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 12: it is not the judge exactly. You don't do it, 438 00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 12: even if you thought that there was a ground for 439 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 12: doing this. The judgment call that you thought that this 440 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 12: is the case to bring it tells you everything. There 441 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:05,600 Speaker 12: is no adult in the room who would have said, 442 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 12: are you kidding me? Why would you possibly do this? 443 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:11,720 Speaker 12: And the answer is because we want to send a 444 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 12: signal to the judiciary and that's what you shouldn't be doing. 445 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:19,359 Speaker 3: And isn't it funny how the notion that nobody is 446 00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 3: above the law disappears when leftist activist judges break laws. 447 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:26,920 Speaker 3: And these are real laws, not trumped up charges used 448 00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:30,640 Speaker 3: to stop a political candidate from winning offers. Remember when 449 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 3: Russian collusion hopes O, Rachel Maddow was all about no 450 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,920 Speaker 3: individual being above the law. I wonder what's changed. 451 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:41,280 Speaker 1: Nobody's above the law. We only have one system of 452 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 1: law for everyone. Nothing about being an elected official gives 453 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:47,920 Speaker 1: you a license to commit crimes or a license to 454 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 1: get away with it. If you do, why step up 455 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 1: politically and defend a judge or a prosecutor that's supposed 456 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:54,480 Speaker 1: to be a non political part of our systems. It's 457 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:56,479 Speaker 1: not like we didn't know it was going to be terrible, 458 00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:01,080 Speaker 1: and it is terrible. He really did have a arrested today, 459 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:02,800 Speaker 1: arresting a judge today? 460 00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:04,119 Speaker 12: Are you kidding me? 461 00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 3: And why was Wisconsen Judge Hannah Jugan arrested by the FBI. Now, 462 00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:13,120 Speaker 3: this is the part of the story that Rachel met 463 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:16,480 Speaker 3: Out failed to tell her audience. Let's see it from 464 00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:17,959 Speaker 3: Attorney General Pambondi. 465 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:21,240 Speaker 10: This guy was in court being prosecuted by a state 466 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:26,119 Speaker 10: prosecutor for domestic violence battery. He had beat up two people, 467 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:29,120 Speaker 10: a guy and a girl. Beat the guy, hit guy 468 00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:31,760 Speaker 10: thirty times, knocked him to the ground, choked him, beat 469 00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 10: up a woman so badly they both had to go 470 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 10: to the hospital and John, you know, it's so rare 471 00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 10: for victims to want to cooperate. They wanted to cooperate. 472 00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:43,200 Speaker 10: They were sitting in the court room with the state prosecutor. 473 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 10: The judge learns that Ice was outside to get the 474 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:49,160 Speaker 10: guy because he had been deported in twenty thirteen, came 475 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 10: back in our country, commits these crimes, charged with committing 476 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:56,120 Speaker 10: these crimes. Victims in court. Judge finds out. She goes 477 00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 10: out in the hallway, screams at the immigration officers. She's fury, 478 00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:03,960 Speaker 10: visibly shaken, upset, sends them off to talk to the 479 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 10: chief judge. 480 00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:08,360 Speaker 5: She comes back in the courtroom here can believe this, takes. 481 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 10: The defendant and the defense attorney back in her chambers, 482 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 10: takes them out of private exit and tells them to leave, 483 00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:18,800 Speaker 10: while a state prosecutor and victims of domestic violence are 484 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 10: sitting in the courtroom. 485 00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:23,359 Speaker 3: Join I mean now is Newsweek's senior editor at large 486 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:27,119 Speaker 3: and article three projects seeniing Council Josh Hamma. Josh, the 487 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:32,200 Speaker 3: leftist media is actually pushing the narrative these arrests are sinister, 488 00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:35,680 Speaker 3: that politically motivated. They seem to think that these leftist 489 00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 3: judges are above the law. They can obstruct justice, they 490 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 3: can high defenders. 491 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:44,120 Speaker 6: Reader. 492 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:47,479 Speaker 13: You know, Rachel Maddow is one thing, But I mean, seriously, 493 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 13: how many times for the past two years do we 494 00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 13: hear leftist media talking hands, leftist lawyers, Democratic senators, Congressman 495 00:28:55,600 --> 00:29:00,240 Speaker 13: Barack Obama, Michelle Obama, Joe Biden, Kamwala Harris, the all this, 496 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:01,920 Speaker 13: over and over and over again. 497 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 5: No one is above the law. No one is above law. 498 00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 13: Oh wait, yeah, no one is above the law until 499 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:10,360 Speaker 13: it's a sympathetic Democrat judge trying to harbor an illegal 500 00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 13: alien's escape. I mean, you can't make this stuff up. 501 00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:18,880 Speaker 13: I mean literally, like these people are just systemically incapable 502 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:22,959 Speaker 13: of anything remotely resembling intellectual consistency. I mean it literally 503 00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 13: is what is good for the goose is apparently not 504 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 13: good for the gander. Now I happen to agree with 505 00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:30,760 Speaker 13: Rachel Maddow in those first two clips. I agree that 506 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:33,320 Speaker 13: no one is above the law. I happened to disagree 507 00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:35,960 Speaker 13: with her on what the law is as it applied to, 508 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 13: for example, Donald Trump and these four prosecutions. But in 509 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 13: this particular case, the case of the state judge in Wisconsin, 510 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,600 Speaker 13: there this is constitutional law. One on one stuff Frita. 511 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 13: The Article six of the US Constitution is very clear. 512 00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:50,840 Speaker 13: Federal law is supreme over state law. If federal law 513 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 13: says you're an illegal alien, you got to get out, 514 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,480 Speaker 13: and the state judged trying to undermine that, that state 515 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:57,880 Speaker 13: judge has to be arrested, and thank god that's what happened. 516 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 3: Well, Trump did vow to tackle this two tier justice system. 517 00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 3: This was part of the election campaign. But we're still 518 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 3: seeing cases. And this one involving Tim Walls's employee in Minnesota, 519 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 3: government employee Dylan Bryan Adams, is another example. This guy 520 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:22,400 Speaker 3: was caught on tape. There's extensive video of him vandalizing Tesla's, 521 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:26,040 Speaker 3: causing around twenty thousand dollars in damage. Well, he won't 522 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 3: be facing jail because the progressive district attorney in that 523 00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:34,960 Speaker 3: state is declining to charge him. Yes, she looks exactly 524 00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 3: as you'd expect her to look, Josh. The local police 525 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:42,320 Speaker 3: chief has called this decision to opt for a diversion 526 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 3: rather than criminal charges a betrayal of victims. Now, this 527 00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 3: is just one case, but we see these sort of 528 00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 3: instances over and over again. 529 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,880 Speaker 13: Yeah, nothing says progressivism in America in the year twenty 530 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:58,520 Speaker 13: twenty five, like someone who looks like that with that 531 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:02,360 Speaker 13: particular haircut and that very white, pale skin tongue wearing 532 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 13: a black Defenders Matter t shirt. Right, I mean literally, 533 00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:10,560 Speaker 13: nothing I think encapsulates an underscores the utter ridiculousness that 534 00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:15,000 Speaker 13: is the identity politics intersectionality obsessed modern American left than 535 00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:17,880 Speaker 13: that image right there. But again, these people have no 536 00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:21,480 Speaker 13: interest in anything remotely resembling the neutral enforcement of the 537 00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:25,160 Speaker 13: rule of law. They are the original pioneers of reward 538 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 13: my friends and punish my enemies by any means possible, 539 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:29,960 Speaker 13: and we see that play out time and time again. 540 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:32,560 Speaker 13: The Rachel Maddow klep as it applies, this notion and 541 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:34,600 Speaker 13: known as about the law is one thing there, But 542 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 13: this scoff law in Minnesota. And by the way, color 543 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:40,520 Speaker 13: me surprise, really, I mean color me surprised, and that 544 00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 13: this is happening in Tim Wallas's Minnesota. Tim Walls of 545 00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:46,800 Speaker 13: Minnesota was ground zero of the Saint George Floyd ryots 546 00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:49,120 Speaker 13: back in May and into June and July of the 547 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 13: summer of twenty twenty. There, Tim Walls was the one 548 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:54,440 Speaker 13: who lets what could have been a small contained fire 549 00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:58,360 Speaker 13: erupted into a nationwide great conflagration, and now it's happening 550 00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:00,480 Speaker 13: here when it comes to the so called test take 551 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:03,400 Speaker 13: down this latest form of leftist anarchy and political violence. 552 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 13: There I none of this story surprised me. The fact 553 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:08,240 Speaker 13: that the prosecutor looks like that, the fact that this 554 00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:10,760 Speaker 13: has taken place in Tim Wallas's backyard, the fact that 555 00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:14,320 Speaker 13: Elon must test us above. This one story in many 556 00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:18,200 Speaker 13: ways where I think completely underscores everything that is wrong 557 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:20,520 Speaker 13: with the current American political left, and it kind of 558 00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 13: reminds me. A lot of folks here in the United 559 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 13: States are making a big fuss of the fact that 560 00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 13: a couple of polls have been trending downward over the 561 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:29,080 Speaker 13: past couple weeks for Donald Trump. But what they're not 562 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:30,880 Speaker 13: telling you is that if you look on the second 563 00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:33,320 Speaker 13: and third paragraph and most of these posters' articles, they 564 00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 13: will still note that Donald Trump is still more trusted 565 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 13: and more popular than the Democrats. And the reason for 566 00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:39,200 Speaker 13: that is for stuff like this. 567 00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:46,480 Speaker 3: Absolutely. Now, Josh to the shocking tragedy that saw the 568 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:49,520 Speaker 3: loss of more than sixty lives when a black Hawk 569 00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:54,480 Speaker 3: helicopter collided with an American Airlines flight near Reagan International Airport. 570 00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 3: There was a great deal of criticism and defense of 571 00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 3: DEI at the time, diversity equity inclusion programs, a great 572 00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 3: deal of focus on the fact that the pilot here, 573 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:11,800 Speaker 3: the helicopter pilot in the black Hawk, was a female, Captain, 574 00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:15,320 Speaker 3: Rebecca low back Well. We now have more details on 575 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,320 Speaker 3: the crash, and it's been revealed that not only was 576 00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 3: the black Hawk flying too high, but in the final 577 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:26,320 Speaker 3: seconds before the crash, the pilot failed to heed a 578 00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:30,640 Speaker 3: directive from her co pilot, an Army flight instructor to 579 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 3: change course. As many speculated at the time, Josh, this 580 00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 3: looked like human era, an avoidable strategity that's taken the 581 00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:42,680 Speaker 3: lives of sixty seven people. 582 00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 13: So this was a truly horrific story. I was actually 583 00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 13: in Washington, DC when this happened. I was set to 584 00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:52,479 Speaker 13: fly out of Reagan Airport, the very airport less than 585 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:54,920 Speaker 13: twenty four hours after the crash. My flight was delayed, 586 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 13: and then when I finally got to the airport the 587 00:33:56,720 --> 00:34:00,240 Speaker 13: next day for my delete flight, it was quite growing. 588 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:02,200 Speaker 13: As you can imagine pulling up to the airport and 589 00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:05,040 Speaker 13: seeing the wreckage there with the sirens and the flashing 590 00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 13: lights in the Potomac River there. So this is a 591 00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:10,239 Speaker 13: tragedy that I'm on a personal level, I'm not going 592 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:13,560 Speaker 13: to soon forget anytime soon there. But we do know 593 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 13: a little bit more about what happens here. We do 594 00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:20,240 Speaker 13: know that this was just just a total, just great 595 00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:24,399 Speaker 13: amalgamation of errors happening all at once. Some person left 596 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:26,560 Speaker 13: early who was supposed to be there in flight control 597 00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:29,280 Speaker 13: there as you saw what just happened here. The pilotist 598 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:32,040 Speaker 13: just simply did not listen to a co pilot there. 599 00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:34,640 Speaker 13: I think the DEI is one of many factors to 600 00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:36,719 Speaker 13: blame here. It seems like there are numerous factors there. 601 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:39,439 Speaker 13: But when it comes to something like this, rita something 602 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 13: like when you were near the pilot of a Blackhawk 603 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:46,719 Speaker 13: military helicopter, I'm sorry. There is literally one thing. There 604 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:48,960 Speaker 13: is one thing that I want to know that is 605 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:51,600 Speaker 13: happening there and choosing who is piling that aircraft, and 606 00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:54,279 Speaker 13: that is who is the most skilled aviator possible. I 607 00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:57,560 Speaker 13: don't give a crap about literally anything else in the world, 608 00:34:57,640 --> 00:34:59,719 Speaker 13: the same way that I don't give a crap about 609 00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:03,160 Speaker 13: what skin colors. If you are doing open heart surgery, 610 00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:06,520 Speaker 13: if you are doing any task or public safety, anyone's 611 00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:09,799 Speaker 13: health safety is at rest there. Literally, the only thing 612 00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:12,239 Speaker 13: they care about is how good you are. That is 613 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:15,920 Speaker 13: the entire notion of equal just under under the law 614 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:18,720 Speaker 13: of meritocracy. That is the bread and butter of Western 615 00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:22,120 Speaker 13: civilization itself. We we lose that to our own peril. 616 00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:24,719 Speaker 13: We forget that to our own peril. And frankly, with 617 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:27,840 Speaker 13: every tragedy like this, there's obviously a horrific loss of 618 00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:30,120 Speaker 13: human life, and may their memories all be a blessing there. 619 00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:32,719 Speaker 13: But every time that DEI contributes in some way to 620 00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:35,960 Speaker 13: a tragedy like this, frankly, Lamir Putin and Shijimping, they're 621 00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:38,719 Speaker 13: just licking their chops because they see these stupid Americans 622 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 13: that are doing this and they're literally causing death and 623 00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:44,359 Speaker 13: destruction there, and our enemies are only embolded and frankly laughing. 624 00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:45,200 Speaker 13: And that's as a result of this. 625 00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:51,279 Speaker 3: Well, we've got airlines, multiple airlines that are pushing for 626 00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:55,040 Speaker 3: these DEI policies that want to have commercial airline pilots 627 00:35:55,120 --> 00:36:00,440 Speaker 3: that are more reflective of society. They're overwhelmingly white male 628 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:03,799 Speaker 3: at the moment, and there's been numerous articles on these 629 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:08,279 Speaker 3: numerous programs that have been highlighted with different airlines, And 630 00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:11,040 Speaker 3: what you just said is so true. I don't think 631 00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:14,840 Speaker 3: there's a single person who flies who cares about the color, 632 00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:17,920 Speaker 3: or the gender, or the sexual orientation of who's in 633 00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:20,840 Speaker 3: the cockpit. You just want to have the best person 634 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:24,400 Speaker 3: for the job, and I would have thought airline pilots 635 00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:27,919 Speaker 3: would be one area where you want to value meritocracy 636 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:31,960 Speaker 3: above all else, Josh. The lies against Donald Trump are 637 00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:36,279 Speaker 3: getting ever more absurd. Now they're accusing him of disrespecting 638 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:39,840 Speaker 3: the late Pope and the Vatican by wearing a blue 639 00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:45,000 Speaker 3: suit to Pope Francis's funeral. The fake news here just 640 00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 3: spread like wildfire. Starts with this headline, the Vatican asked 641 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:54,399 Speaker 3: Pope France's funeral attendees to wear all black. Trump wore 642 00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:57,319 Speaker 3: a blue suit, and this is the image they used 643 00:36:57,480 --> 00:37:02,239 Speaker 3: with that story, carefully cropped foot deliberately hiding all the 644 00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:05,680 Speaker 3: men in blue suits, including Prince William and all sorts 645 00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:08,239 Speaker 3: of other dignitaries. And as you can see in the 646 00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:13,279 Speaker 3: wider shots, these publications have gone out of their way 647 00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:16,840 Speaker 3: to kind of mislead and we've seen publications from the 648 00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:21,399 Speaker 3: UK to the US Josh spreading this fake news about 649 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:22,400 Speaker 3: Trump's blue suit. 650 00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:24,960 Speaker 13: I mean, look, I mean, reader, I watch a lot 651 00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:26,920 Speaker 13: of Donald Trump coverage over the years. I've seen him 652 00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:29,239 Speaker 13: give many speeches, I've seen him give many White House 653 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:33,280 Speaker 13: overlops interviews. I genuinely, as someone who pays actually fairly 654 00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:35,920 Speaker 13: close attention to men's sartorial choices when they are in 655 00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:38,960 Speaker 13: high positions, I actually genuinely struggle to think of a 656 00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:42,040 Speaker 13: single instance when Donald Trump is actually wearing a black suit. 657 00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:43,800 Speaker 13: I'm genuinely is like thinking out loud here with you 658 00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:45,840 Speaker 13: in real time. Here, I feel like the guy's always 659 00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:47,560 Speaker 13: wearing a blue suit. I mean, I mean Trump's go 660 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:50,560 Speaker 13: to Look. Anyone knows anything about Donald Trump's wardrobe, you 661 00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:52,800 Speaker 13: know that he is known for wearing various shades of 662 00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:56,560 Speaker 13: blue suits, and typically his go to choices is a thick, bald, 663 00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:59,400 Speaker 13: long red tie. That is Donald Trump. One on one, 664 00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:01,279 Speaker 13: you want to go get bobblehead Donald the toy store 665 00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:03,239 Speaker 13: of Donald Trump. You're gonna get a blue suit, red tie. 666 00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:05,719 Speaker 13: That is the image, that's the magazine covered, That's who 667 00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:07,799 Speaker 13: he is there. Now he has a lot of blue suits. Now, 668 00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:10,359 Speaker 13: he has various shades of blue suits. There, there's lighter blue, 669 00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:13,880 Speaker 13: there's darker blue, there's royal blue, navy blue. But I'm 670 00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:18,040 Speaker 13: genuinely now thinking here, my mind is racing. I can't 671 00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:19,719 Speaker 13: think of a single time where he wears like a 672 00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:21,759 Speaker 13: jet black suit there. That's just not who he is, 673 00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:24,320 Speaker 13: that's not his style. There, And yes, I mean to 674 00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:27,880 Speaker 13: your broader point here, this obviously is it's beyond silly. 675 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:32,000 Speaker 13: It's so trite, it's so done. No one cares for this, literally, 676 00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:34,359 Speaker 13: no one cares for this. I mean Fortune Magazine there. 677 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 13: I mean, how desperate can you get there? I mean, 678 00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:39,680 Speaker 13: when you're forced to run articles like this, Really, when 679 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:42,960 Speaker 13: you're actually forced to run ridiculous headlines like this, the 680 00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:45,600 Speaker 13: only logical conclusion that any consumer in the media can 681 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:48,200 Speaker 13: possibly reach is that you are out of luck, because 682 00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:50,279 Speaker 13: you are out of content, because you have nothing better 683 00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:52,759 Speaker 13: to point you there, So you're forced You're forced to 684 00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:56,440 Speaker 13: cavil about his choice of suit there. It's just so 685 00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:58,759 Speaker 13: utterly absurd read. But frankly, no one cares about this. 686 00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:02,680 Speaker 3: It is so But I tell you it has an impact, 687 00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:05,279 Speaker 3: particularly outside of the US, because the US, he do 688 00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:08,759 Speaker 3: have a bit more diversity in the media, not as 689 00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 3: much as you would like to see, but there is 690 00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:17,359 Speaker 3: counter narratives that are actually correcting some of this fake news. 691 00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:21,200 Speaker 3: But in Australia and elsewhere in the world, it's almost 692 00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:24,719 Speaker 3: all we get is just this relentless negative stuff, whether 693 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 3: it's a serious issues or trivial like the color of 694 00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:31,360 Speaker 3: his suit at a funeral. Before you go, just I 695 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:34,719 Speaker 3: want to get your opinion on this remarkable New York 696 00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:37,719 Speaker 3: Times fluff piece that they've done on a character called 697 00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:42,360 Speaker 3: Hassan Piker, a character they describe as a progressive mind 698 00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:45,359 Speaker 3: in a magabody because he works out. Apparently that makes 699 00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:49,200 Speaker 3: him a megabody, but he's as bad as maga as 700 00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:54,240 Speaker 3: I'm blonde. What he is, Josh is virulently anti Israel. 701 00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 14: Any kind of Zionist tendency should be treated in the 702 00:39:57,680 --> 00:40:02,120 Speaker 14: same way as being a f rabbit neo Nazi, and 703 00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:05,279 Speaker 14: you couldn't even you shouldn't even let someone be the 704 00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:10,560 Speaker 14: local dogcatcher. As as as Felix was posting, if they've 705 00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:16,520 Speaker 14: ever exhibited any sort of any sort of like positive 706 00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:20,000 Speaker 14: feelings about the state of Israel, I'm so serious about. 707 00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:23,920 Speaker 3: This, Josh. He has a hugely popular show on Twitch 708 00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:30,040 Speaker 3: where he honest shamedly praises hooty terrorists, spreads all sorts 709 00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:34,560 Speaker 3: of Hamas propaganda, and now he's getting fluff pieces in 710 00:40:34,640 --> 00:40:36,440 Speaker 3: the New York Times. What is going on? 711 00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:39,920 Speaker 13: Well, I think what was going on as ex accurate, 712 00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:42,680 Speaker 13: it looks like, which is that someone who has literally 713 00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:46,480 Speaker 13: made a name for himself as an apologist for Hamas, 714 00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:50,759 Speaker 13: who these has balla various other US recognized foreign terrorist organizations. 715 00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:53,560 Speaker 13: I mean, this is the guy who is now getting 716 00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:57,640 Speaker 13: you know, the page a one full spread treatment from 717 00:40:57,680 --> 00:40:59,839 Speaker 13: the New York Times, an organization that was probably best 718 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:03,720 Speaker 13: known for burying coverage of the Holocaust back towards towards 719 00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:06,319 Speaker 13: the back of the paper for three four five years 720 00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:07,960 Speaker 13: during World War to the New York Times is a 721 00:41:08,080 --> 00:41:10,600 Speaker 13: long and deeply inglorious track record when it comes to 722 00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:14,000 Speaker 13: these particular issues. This particular individual, Hassan Piker, is so 723 00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:16,840 Speaker 13: toxic that after AOC of all people went on his 724 00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:19,319 Speaker 13: show one point last year, she kind of did did 725 00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:21,560 Speaker 13: a quasi maya culpa when she was asked about you. 726 00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:22,840 Speaker 13: She was like, Oh, I didn't know his views were 727 00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:26,080 Speaker 13: actually that radical. So I mean, I mean, this guy 728 00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:27,880 Speaker 13: has really made a name for himself there. So so 729 00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:30,280 Speaker 13: for him to get the full New York Times treatment 730 00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:32,719 Speaker 13: there that says a lot, frankly about The New York Times. 731 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:34,840 Speaker 13: But for those of us who pay close attention there, this, 732 00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:36,560 Speaker 13: tragically is what The New York Times has been for 733 00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:37,200 Speaker 13: a very long. 734 00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:44,160 Speaker 3: It is incredibly Can not imagine something happening with someone 735 00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:46,920 Speaker 3: like that from the right side of politics. Can you 736 00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:51,240 Speaker 3: imagine some one spreading the sort of stuff he spreads 737 00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:56,600 Speaker 3: getting a cover like that? Incredible Josh Hammer. It's always 738 00:41:56,640 --> 00:42:00,160 Speaker 3: a pleasure, Thank you reader. Still to come. What on 739 00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:04,959 Speaker 3: earth has happened to Katie Perry. Kinsey Schofield is up next, 740 00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:17,560 Speaker 3: Welcome back, joining me now a celebrity and a royal reporter, 741 00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:23,040 Speaker 3: Kinsey Schofield Kinsey. Pop superstar Beyonce has been ridiculed as 742 00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:26,760 Speaker 3: tickets for her Cowboy Carter tour reached the same price 743 00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:30,799 Speaker 3: as a McDonald's mill due to lack of demand. Now, 744 00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:33,600 Speaker 3: I've got to tell you, Kinsy, I love country music, 745 00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:37,839 Speaker 3: but Beyonce's country album ain't country. Even her fans don't 746 00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:40,680 Speaker 3: seem to like it that much, judging by the lack 747 00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:44,840 Speaker 3: of demand for tickets for her concert. How did she 748 00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:47,919 Speaker 3: win a Grammy for Best country album with this mess. 749 00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:51,640 Speaker 15: You know, it's all about who you know, I imagine, 750 00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,600 Speaker 15: especially when you're Beyonce and jay Z. But I did 751 00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:59,800 Speaker 15: read an interesting article from Forbes about her new marketing technique, 752 00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:04,760 Speaker 15: this approach, you know, to bypass traditional media, where Beyonce 753 00:43:05,080 --> 00:43:09,080 Speaker 15: just associates or just promotes herself through social media in 754 00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:12,279 Speaker 15: a way to engage with fans. But I think that 755 00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:16,440 Speaker 15: that ultimately hurts her. You know, we the audience, like 756 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:20,200 Speaker 15: you or I are going to be watching Good Morning America. 757 00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:22,440 Speaker 15: We're going to be watching the morning shows, and you 758 00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:26,560 Speaker 15: never ever see Beyonce sit down and do that kind 759 00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:30,360 Speaker 15: of fluff. I think she fears being asked really tough. 760 00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:33,160 Speaker 5: Questions about her husband, about Diddy. 761 00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:33,160 Speaker 13: You know. 762 00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:35,440 Speaker 15: I think that that's why we are saying this real 763 00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:37,759 Speaker 15: transition in her marketing strategy. 764 00:43:38,719 --> 00:43:41,400 Speaker 3: I think it's more than that. I don't think the 765 00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:44,200 Speaker 3: lack of ticket sales are just because she's not doing 766 00:43:44,280 --> 00:43:48,720 Speaker 3: mainstream media. I think it's just she's lost the luster. 767 00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:52,440 Speaker 3: Maybe she became too political, aligned herself a little bit 768 00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:55,720 Speaker 3: too much with the Democrats during the election campaign. Perhaps 769 00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:59,120 Speaker 3: it's all the other activism we've seen from her, which 770 00:43:59,239 --> 00:44:03,880 Speaker 3: seems inco heron or at very least hypocritical and also 771 00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:07,800 Speaker 3: just a very terrible album with this so called country music. 772 00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:13,600 Speaker 3: Now Katie Perry is also being mocked for her concert 773 00:44:13,719 --> 00:44:17,160 Speaker 3: to have footage of her trying to dance, if you 774 00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:20,480 Speaker 3: can call it, that has gone viral. This choreography is 775 00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:39,800 Speaker 3: pretty terrible. Kinsey, she was a pop icon. What's happened? 776 00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:44,120 Speaker 5: What did space take from her? Her soul? 777 00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:47,040 Speaker 15: I mean, she has spaced a lot of criticism for 778 00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:50,719 Speaker 15: the recent Blue Origin spaceflight. She's constantly fighting with the 779 00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:54,479 Speaker 15: elderly over real estate. A nun involved in a legal 780 00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:58,320 Speaker 15: battle with Katie literally died in court while fighting Katie 781 00:44:58,440 --> 00:45:02,640 Speaker 15: over real estate. Perry worked with someone accused of sexual 782 00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:07,239 Speaker 15: assault on her latest feminist anthemb which we've discussed previously. 783 00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:09,600 Speaker 5: Her album sales have been in the gutter. 784 00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:13,080 Speaker 15: A lot of these scandals are being attributed to negatively 785 00:45:13,160 --> 00:45:17,200 Speaker 15: impacting her ticket sales. But those dance moves cannot help. 786 00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:24,479 Speaker 3: Oh dear Now, seventy three year old football coach Bill 787 00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:31,640 Speaker 3: Belichick's girlfriend, Jordan Hudson, has interrupted his CBS Sunday Morning interview. 788 00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:34,799 Speaker 3: I should add Jordan is just twenty four years old, 789 00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:38,320 Speaker 3: so she's twenty four, he's seventy three, and he was 790 00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:41,759 Speaker 3: being asked about this relationship. That's raising eyebrows. 791 00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:45,680 Speaker 14: Make sure that that's the Jordan was a constant presence 792 00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:46,720 Speaker 14: during our interview. 793 00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:49,399 Speaker 5: You have Jordan Threat over there. 794 00:45:50,280 --> 00:45:52,759 Speaker 14: Everybody in the world seems to be following this relationship. 795 00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:54,799 Speaker 14: They've got an opinion about your private life. 796 00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:56,840 Speaker 12: It's got nothing to do with them, but they're invested 797 00:45:56,920 --> 00:45:59,000 Speaker 12: in it. How do you deal with that? 798 00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:02,840 Speaker 5: Never been too worried about what everybody else. Thanks, just 799 00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:04,600 Speaker 5: to try to do what I feel like is that's 800 00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:05,640 Speaker 5: for me and what's right? 801 00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:08,600 Speaker 3: How did you guys meet not talking about this? 802 00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:09,520 Speaker 15: No? 803 00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:13,239 Speaker 3: No, well, if they want people to stop talking, I 804 00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:15,840 Speaker 3: don't know that. Probably shouldn't have her had the interviews 805 00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:19,680 Speaker 3: at interrupting them. Surely a question about how a seventy 806 00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:22,080 Speaker 3: three year old got together with a twenty four year 807 00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:25,959 Speaker 3: old is expected to be asked. That's a fairly regular question. 808 00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:29,239 Speaker 5: I would have thought, Yeah, I imagine it wasn't on 809 00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:30,640 Speaker 5: Farmers Only dot com. 810 00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:34,120 Speaker 15: But if I were a Bill Belichick, Yeah, but you're 811 00:46:34,120 --> 00:46:37,960 Speaker 15: hearing you're hearing Pierce Morgan and all sorts of people 812 00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:41,440 Speaker 15: warning him like blinkt twice if you need help, I 813 00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:46,080 Speaker 15: would watch Single White Female, Fatal Attraction and Basic Instinct. 814 00:46:46,239 --> 00:46:49,040 Speaker 15: And if you're feeling, you know, still feeling good about 815 00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:52,719 Speaker 15: your relationship after those, then good luck to you. 816 00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:58,000 Speaker 3: She could be his granddaughter. I mean, it's not even 817 00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:02,320 Speaker 3: she's old enough to be his. It could be granddaughters. 818 00:47:02,760 --> 00:47:06,000 Speaker 3: At some point, we've just got to say the age 819 00:47:06,080 --> 00:47:08,640 Speaker 3: gap is too much. I'm very liberal with these things. 820 00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:12,880 Speaker 3: I'm happy for people. Love is love. But come on, now, 821 00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:17,960 Speaker 3: let's go to the og Influenza Martha Stewart, She's thrown 822 00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:21,240 Speaker 3: a bit of a shaded Meghan Markle.

Translation, you're not even on my radar. 826 00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:33,759 Speaker 15: I love it. 827 00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:36,320 Speaker 5: Martha barely knows Megan Mirkle exists. 828 00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:39,600 Speaker 15: It reminds me of the ultimate diva, Mariah Carey, repeatedly 829 00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:43,760 Speaker 15: saying I don't know her when asked about Jennifer Lopez. 830 00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:46,520 Speaker 15: It's the type of shade you're just born with. But 831 00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:49,440 Speaker 15: you're right, it's a master class I applied. Martha Stewart. 832 00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:55,800 Speaker 3: Now, before you go celebrity.
