Speaker 1: On scone Lils Australia.
Speaker 2: This is the Window Paney Show.
Speaker 3: Good evening and welcome to the Rita Panehy Show. I'm
Speaker 3: Danikiti Giorgio coming up tonight. Peter Dutton backflips on a
Speaker 3: key election policy as he falls even further behind Labor
Speaker 3: in the latest years poll. Anthony Albanezi says he's going
Speaker 3: to bring electricity prices down?
Speaker 4: How many times have we heard that?
Speaker 5: One?
Speaker 3: He and final will join us a former White House
Speaker 3: doctor to be grilled on whether he have it up.
Speaker 4: Joe Biden has cognitive decline, Josh haven't has the latest.
Speaker 3: Kinsey Schofield on garac Obama's frank marriage admission amid divorce
Speaker 3: roomors with Michelle.
Speaker 4: And of course Lestie's losing ears.
Speaker 3: She including the sad and sorry lunatics that hands off
Speaker 3: protests across America.
Speaker 6: Stand up and say it. Fascist, stand up and say it.
Speaker 6: I'm standing up and saying what I believe you, Stand up.
Speaker 1: And say what you look?
Speaker 4: Jotting me now?
Speaker 3: Is Skydy his contributor pro McSween prove good to see you.
Speaker 3: Thank you so much for jure to look. I want
Speaker 3: to start with this. Dutton backflip, because the opposition leader
Speaker 3: has really backflipped on a plan to make Canbra public
Speaker 3: servants work from the office five days a week after
Speaker 3: this particular policy proved unpopular with voters, particularly.
Speaker 4: Among women who want work flexibly.
Speaker 3: This is what he said, you conceding this policy was
Speaker 3: unpopular with female belops.
Speaker 1: But we've got it wrong.
Speaker 5: We've apologized for it.
Speaker 2: We support flexible workplace arrangements and our plan, which was
Speaker 2: only ever targeted for the public service in camera, labor's
Speaker 2: been able to create into a scare campaign and the.
Speaker 3: Prime Minister now claims that Peter Dutton doesn't understand women.
Speaker 7: Peter Dutton wants to undermine work right and in particular
Speaker 7: doesn't understand modern families, doesn't understand the important role that
Speaker 7: women and men play in organizing their families and organizing
Speaker 7: appropriate work conditions wherever it is possible.
Speaker 3: I mean, this is the first time Albo has actually
Speaker 3: been directed in the bit of passion throughout the whole campaign.
Speaker 3: I wonder why, but look, prou is this open admission.
Speaker 3: I guess of failure on Peter Dutton's part is that
Speaker 3: going to harm him. We're still early on in the campaign,
Speaker 3: but can he recover from this?
Speaker 8: Well, the problem is that he's being outplayed every day
Speaker 8: by this sneaky, cunning prime minister, and he's given them
Speaker 8: another opportunity to have a go at him. To be
Speaker 8: frank many people, including me, would have supported this because
Speaker 8: he's talking about public servants, the forty one thousand extra
Speaker 8: public servants that we now have, and frankly, I don't
Speaker 8: think we get value for money out of any of them.
Speaker 4: You wonder what the hell.
Speaker 8: They're doing for five days anyway. So I think it's
Speaker 8: a shame that he has not been clearer when he
Speaker 8: announced that policy. I think a lot of women who
Speaker 8: are as engage as we are in detail would have
Speaker 8: thought that he was talking about women generally in the workforce.
Speaker 8: So again the Liberal Party is failing in its messaging.
Speaker 8: It's not clear, it doesn't seem to be clear on detail,
Speaker 8: and I think this is where the foul of the
Speaker 8: campaign is. You know, as employers know, having people who
Speaker 8: are working from home is not good for the team,
Speaker 8: for productivity, for a million things. Why it's it's wrong.
Speaker 4: I completely agree with you. COVID is over.
Speaker 3: It onally is over and we managed before, we managed
Speaker 3: before people went to work Monday to Friday, nine to
Speaker 3: five before and now suddenly it's become this big deal
Speaker 3: pro and you.
Speaker 8: Know, and predictably, you know, the party of the worker Alberze.
Speaker 8: You give me a bra is, you know, using this
Speaker 8: exploding Oh of course.
Speaker 4: So, as I said, he's the most fine up. I
Speaker 4: think I've seen him very lazy. Seriously. Now let's talk
Speaker 4: about the latest news poll.
Speaker 3: Labour has increased its lead over the Coalition, with Anthony
Speaker 3: Alberezi edging closer towards retaining a majority. Labor leads the
Speaker 3: coalition fifty two to forty eight two party prefers. This
Speaker 3: actually mirrors the twenty twenty two federal election result In
Speaker 3: terms of the primary vote. Support for the Coalition has
Speaker 3: dropped one point to thirty six percent.
Speaker 4: Labor remains unchanged on thirty three.
Speaker 3: Peter Dunton, however, has managed to close Anthony Albanese's lead
Speaker 3: as preferred prime minister to just eight points. Look, pro
Speaker 3: it's early days. We've only had one week of the campaign.
Speaker 3: We've still got a month to go.
Speaker 4: Peter Dunton does have a mountain to climb here from
Speaker 4: the offset. He always did. But how do you interpret
Speaker 4: that data.
Speaker 8: Well, I think it's part of the reason why you know,
Speaker 8: he's not communicating. Well, I'm glad that the debate's on
Speaker 8: tomorrow night on Sky because I'm really hoping that he
Speaker 8: shows up. How nept really Anthony Albaneze he is, but
Speaker 8: their messaging is not clear. He doesn't ram home, thank god.
Speaker 8: Last week he was at a petrol bowser. Surely they
Speaker 8: should be exploiting that more. That the cut to fuel
Speaker 8: ex's excise is going to help everything, not just the
Speaker 8: people driving cars at home, not the people who aren't
Speaker 8: paying you know who. It's going to help the people
Speaker 8: who aren't even paying tax, who were going to get
Speaker 8: a piddling seventy who weren't going to get the seventy
Speaker 8: percent tax relief from labor in fifteen months time.
Speaker 4: But you know the fact that.
Speaker 8: The fuel excise is down means it's going to sky
Speaker 8: you know, snowball into the delivery vans. The cost of
Speaker 8: everything we buy is impacted by the cost of fuel.
Speaker 8: So I think it's one that he needs to push
Speaker 8: and push, and the other one that he's just sort
Speaker 8: of let go to the keeper is the gas reserve.
Speaker 8: We know that we need a gas reserve and if
Speaker 8: we had more gas then we can you know, we
Speaker 8: know that the renewables are going to you know, be augmented.
Speaker 4: We're going to have.
Speaker 8: More reliable, cheaper fuel, and it bids us time while
Speaker 8: the nuclear plan is well.
Speaker 3: I think he's going to release the costings and how
Speaker 3: it's going to work, and I'm sure that he will,
Speaker 3: but now it's probably the time. Look, I want to
Speaker 3: talk to you about tariffs because the impact of Donald
Speaker 3: Trump's tariffs have hit the markets.
Speaker 4: Wall Street is down.
Speaker 3: More than ten percent, or US nine trillion dollars in
Speaker 3: just two days.
Speaker 4: The Aussie dollar has hit a five year low now
Speaker 4: close to sixty US cents.
Speaker 3: That's actually surpassing the low recorded at the start of
Speaker 3: the pandemic, and there'd be massive losses across global share markets.
Speaker 4: Look, obviously this is not good, but we knew this
Speaker 4: was going to happen. It was for shadowed. The thing
Speaker 4: is is that Donald Trump's not going to renege on this.
Speaker 3: He's going all out on unilateral tariffs totally.
Speaker 8: And we've seen now China's response, which is over the top.
Speaker 8: But I think people are reading the fact that you know,
Speaker 8: inflation is going to hit around the world, certainly in
Speaker 8: America with what Trump's done.
Speaker 4: China, the whole works.
Speaker 8: So we are in for a bad economic time, which
Speaker 8: is all the more reason why we should make sure
Speaker 8: Albanize is in. But when you look at it from
Speaker 8: an exporter's point of view, the fact that the dollar's
Speaker 8: gone down, we are more competitive. I hear the bitcoins
Speaker 8: going up even more. So maybe I think that people
Speaker 8: know that with the fluctuations in the share market where
Speaker 8: everyone's sort of panicking, it's a great time to buy
Speaker 8: if you have.
Speaker 4: Some cash and just relax. You know, it'll come back again,
Speaker 4: you know.
Speaker 8: I just think that people have this situation where they
Speaker 8: are panic merchants.
Speaker 4: They're reading the news, they're.
Speaker 8: Seeing the protests in America, which is more about the
Speaker 8: fact that people hate Trump.
Speaker 4: The repercussions of his tariffs are yet to be.
Speaker 8: You know, discovered. We are all a bit anxious about it.
Speaker 8: But I just think, chill everybody, well, so bad.
Speaker 4: In the end. He was elected on America First, wasn't he.
Speaker 3: So he's going ahead with his America First plan, whether
Speaker 3: or not the world likes it. He said he was doing,
Speaker 3: said he was doing tariffs. They do this come as
Speaker 3: any surprise. Now let's move on, because major Adelaide roads
Speaker 3: will get artificial intelligence cameras aimed at cutting traffic and
Speaker 3: boosting economic activity. The South Australian government believes every five
Speaker 3: thousand motorists stuck in traffic for twenty minutes cost the
Speaker 3: state economy thirty three thousand dollars. Now, this trial will
Speaker 3: involve the cameras analyzing congestion and tweaking traffic lights cycles.
Speaker 3: I actually like this idea personally proved, because if we
Speaker 3: can actually get traffic moving, you know sometimes when you're
Speaker 3: stuck in traffic lights and you're like, come on, your
Speaker 3: goodness sake.
Speaker 4: Move it along, move it along. I think that this
Speaker 4: is a good idea.
Speaker 3: But I will say, does this not point to a
Speaker 3: bigger problem that infrastructure has.
Speaker 4: Not been tackling there for for the future. We have
Speaker 4: a growing popular ange, so this is a problem. Look,
Speaker 4: I see your point.
Speaker 8: You know, it drives me nuts when I'm stuck at
Speaker 8: a red light in traffic there's no other traffic, You think,
Speaker 8: what the hell? But you know, I think it would
Speaker 8: be more intelligent to be spending that money on getting
Speaker 8: the infrastructure right. You know, we know that with this
Speaker 8: ridiculous migrant intake that we have. Every city in Australia,
Speaker 8: every town in Australia is really you know, not coping
Speaker 8: and we need to have money spent on infrastructure. So sure,
Speaker 8: let's do it trial, let's see how it goes. But
Speaker 8: in the end the intelligence should come from the people
Speaker 8: who are making decisions about infrastructure.
Speaker 4: As as far as I'm concerned, the.
Speaker 3: Big Australia policy that nobody voted for, Zach, We've got
Speaker 3: a booming population, which means congestion on the roads.
Speaker 4: You see your spot on primixween. Good to see you,
Speaker 4: Thank you so much for joining me on the show.
Speaker 4: This evening.
Speaker 3: Anthony Albanezi says he's going to bring electricity prices down
Speaker 3: for everyone.
Speaker 4: Can you believe it? How many times have we heard
Speaker 4: that line?
Speaker 3: This time though, the Prime Minister has committed two point
Speaker 3: three billion dollars to a subsidy program to make household
Speaker 3: battery storage more affordable now Labor claims a scheme will
Speaker 3: cut the cost of a typical home battery by around
Speaker 3: thirty percent. Joining us now is a steam geologist and author,
Speaker 3: Professor Ian Plymer. Good to see you again, Ian, Thank
Speaker 3: you for joining us. Does Labour's mats add up on
Speaker 3: this one?
Speaker 5: Oh, this is just another band aid bit of madness.
Speaker 5: If you are to put solar panels on your roof,
Speaker 5: you have to have a few bomb. If you are
Speaker 5: to buy a battery, even though you might get thirty
Speaker 5: percent of a paid you have to have some money.
Speaker 5: And labor is turning out to be the party that
Speaker 5: hates working people, hates people who are struggling financially.
Speaker 1: This year is just ridiculous.
Speaker 5: And the second thing is if you have batteries with
Speaker 5: power store there for when you might need it, for
Speaker 5: when the sun might be might not be shining, then
Speaker 5: the electricity company can actually take power out of your
Speaker 5: batteries and use it when there's a lack of power
Speaker 5: across the grid. So this is really really typical labor
Speaker 5: a policy on the run. It's not thought through and
Speaker 5: it doesn't go back to the original problem. And the
Speaker 5: original problem is that solar and wind are too expensive.
Speaker 5: They are far too polluting. We once had cheap and
Speaker 5: reliable electricity. We now I no longer have it, simply
Speaker 5: because we went into renewables. The only thing about renewables
Speaker 5: is that the money keeps coming in the subsidies are renewable,
Speaker 5: they keep flowing.
Speaker 1: So this is the hair brain.
Speaker 5: Scheme of Labor to try to win inner city votes
Speaker 5: of those people who can afford to have solar panels
Speaker 5: on the roof and who can afford to buy batteries
Speaker 5: people can't.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I love it that they're marketing this is a
Speaker 3: cost of living measure. Where As you mentioned, you actually
Speaker 3: need money to be able to invest in something like this.
Speaker 4: It's extraordinary.
Speaker 3: Now, look, the minister in charge of Labour's renewables only fantasy,
Speaker 3: you know, the one who lectures us about reducing emissions,
Speaker 3: has been revealed as quite the hypocrite. Because it's been
Speaker 3: revealed Chris Bowen builled US taxpayers two hundred and sixty
Speaker 3: thousand dollars to spend fifty five days across ten countries
Speaker 3: to attend political meetings like the G twenty and cop
Speaker 3: and according to coalition analysis, Bowen's travel produced at least
Speaker 3: two hundred tons of carbon emissions ian. Look, it's the
Speaker 3: classic green zealotry. Do as I say, not as I
Speaker 3: do approach.
Speaker 5: Well, very much so, And one wonders why a Minister
Speaker 5: of Climate and Energy actually needs to go to things
Speaker 5: like cop which ends up with Australia paying more money
Speaker 5: to the gray eminence out there. Why should we taxpayers
Speaker 5: pay more money because we paid a fortune for this
Speaker 5: carbon diox emitting Minister for Energy and Climate Change to
Speaker 5: go abroad. Why should he go to G twenty. That's
Speaker 5: the job for the Treasurer or the Prime Minister. So
Speaker 5: this is a typical case of hypocrisy. It's on the
Speaker 5: same scale as people like ol Gore telling us, oh God,
Speaker 5: we're all going to drown with a massive sea level rise.
Speaker 1: And yet he buys a waterfront property.
Speaker 5: It's on the same level as those from WF who
Speaker 5: fly to divorce in Switzerland in their private jets and
Speaker 5: then they tell us we all should cut down on
Speaker 5: our fuel consumption. So this hypocrisy actually typifies the green movement,
Speaker 5: and we've got it. When we build these solar panels
Speaker 5: and these wind farms. These wind farms in North Queensland
Speaker 5: wipe out pristine forest.
Speaker 1: They actually kill wildlife. The offshore ones kill wildlife.
Speaker 5: We have a support of slavery if you buy solar
Speaker 5: panels made by slaves in China. So what is the
Speaker 5: high moral ground that labour's going to take. Are we
Speaker 5: going to go for a dud energy system promulgated by
Speaker 5: hypocrites and supported by slaves building your equipment, or are
Speaker 5: we going to go to a system where we have
Speaker 5: twenty four to seven cheap, reliable power.
Speaker 1: I know the answer. I wish they would.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I wish that they would too. You're absolutely spot on.
Speaker 9: Now.
Speaker 3: Look, construction is about to commence on Australia's first declared
Speaker 3: renewable energy zone. This one is centered by Dubbo and
Speaker 3: Dunnydoo in regional New South Wales.
Speaker 4: Ian We know that there.
Speaker 3: Has been significant community concern about this project going ahead. Realistically,
Speaker 3: are there actually any benefits to this?
Speaker 5: Well, there are no benefits in making the food producing
Speaker 5: people of our country incandescent with rage, and that is
Speaker 5: the case. I've spoken to groups out at Dubbo. I'm
Speaker 5: very much aware of what's happening there, and these people
Speaker 5: have been gutted. They've lost their family assets because the
Speaker 5: value has gone down. In many cases, they cannot use
Speaker 5: heavy equipment under these power lines. And these power lines
Speaker 5: are bringing in subsidized renewable energy from distant parts into
Speaker 5: the cities.
Speaker 1: Now, if these processes.
Speaker 5: Are so important, why not use our existing power lines
Speaker 5: and put nuclear coal fired power down those power lines.
Speaker 5: And if you really and inner city woke green and
Speaker 5: you want soul and wind power, there's plenty of places
Speaker 5: around bayside Melbourne, plenty of places along the coast. I
Speaker 5: can just see the coast from Cronulla up to Palm
Speaker 5: Beach covered in these wind turbines. That'd be fabulous because
Speaker 5: then you're not losing electricity with the voltage drop transporting
Speaker 5: it over long distances. This is a hair brain scheme,
Speaker 5: and it's a scheme that damages people who are the
Speaker 5: producers in this country. And this scheme has been devised
Speaker 5: by those who live in the cities, don't know where
Speaker 5: their food come from, and don't care about people who
Speaker 5: are the backband of this country.
Speaker 1: And that he's the farmers.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and the farmers, the ones who are having to
Speaker 3: deal with all the consequences of the land being carved
Speaker 3: up and the razoring of all these electricity poles. It's ridiculous,
Speaker 3: I implyim it. Nice to catch up with you. Thanks
Speaker 3: so much for joining us at the show this evening.
Speaker 3: For still to come Lefties losing it Plus did a
Speaker 3: white House doctor cover up Joe Biden's conattempt decline.
Speaker 4: Josh Hammer joins us next to the latest for leus.
Speaker 3: Now it is time for lefties losing it, starting with
Speaker 3: the diabolical lunatics who attended so called hands off protests
Speaker 3: against Donald Trump and Elon Musk. And boy did this
Speaker 3: guy deliver the theater performance.
Speaker 4: He's been waiting his whole life for.
Speaker 6: Idiot moronic the manga mana, break our NATO alliance, turn
Speaker 6: our allies against us, steal our money, Throw seventy one people,
Speaker 6: seventy one million people off Medicaid that people depend on,
Speaker 6: seventy one million people.
Speaker 10: Is this where you want?
Speaker 6: Do you want money taken from your gramdmar? Do you
Speaker 6: want to not support battered women and abuse children?
Speaker 11: Is that what you believe?
Speaker 6: Stand up and say it. Fascist, stand up and say it.
Speaker 6: I'm standing up for saying what I believe.
Speaker 1: You stand up and say what you believe and not.
Speaker 6: Platitudes and not idolatry.
Speaker 11: Let's hear ideas.
Speaker 1: You have no ideas.
Speaker 6: All you have is hate, racism, stupidity, and greed.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's been waiting years, has an't he to get
Speaker 3: that one off his chest? Waiting for that moment that
Speaker 3: a microphone that finally found him and he got his
Speaker 3: moment there.
Speaker 4: Very sweet.
Speaker 3: And now to this delightful character who gets more and
Speaker 3: more triggered and unhinged as he goes along.
Speaker 10: The streets between the Pope and City Hall are entirely
Speaker 10: filled with people who are here because they're very angry
Speaker 10: about what's going on about Trump and fascism. Teek trying
Speaker 10: to teak this wonderful country with all these wonderful people
Speaker 10: in there are great chance going on. The immigrants welcome here,
Speaker 10: trans people are welcome here, trans kids are welcome here.
Speaker 10: This is massas Eusett's kid, Get your hands off of it.
Speaker 4: All very normal.
Speaker 3: And how about this protester who probably should have thought
Speaker 3: twice about her public service announcement.
Speaker 4: My name is.
Speaker 11: Grasa Magda Rosa. I am an immigrant, I am que
Speaker 11: I'm a.
Speaker 3: Shame yes' who to being an undocumented immigrant.
Speaker 4: But whoopsie, it's really not going to end well for her,
Speaker 4: is it? Tom Home and anyone anyone around?
Speaker 3: And you don't have to give it to the left,
Speaker 3: because really they are just so tolerant.
Speaker 1: How do you feel about Donald Trump?
Speaker 3: I think that he deserves to die should die. Okay, Yes,
Speaker 3: just very loving, very inclusive, loving of everybody. And uh
Speaker 3: also at the same time, though, I've got to say
Speaker 3: they're equally as stupid.
Speaker 12: So what what makes Trump a fascist?
Speaker 11: What makes Trump a fascist? Does does things without?
Speaker 1: Yeah, talk loud, I don't have my mic on.
Speaker 12: I'm not really an intuitive Sorry, he just doesn't. He
Speaker 12: just does everything he wants and not following flaws or
Speaker 12: he was a he's a convicted felon.
Speaker 1: You know, that's what's that? So Abor gave me? Yeah,
Speaker 1: who gave you that?
Speaker 13: Then people that.
Speaker 11: Gave me the sign. It's a free sign.
Speaker 12: Someone gave you the sign, and then they gave you
Speaker 12: the handout.
Speaker 11: So are you reading it now to see try to
Speaker 11: answer the question.
Speaker 3: Ah, yes, you know your cause is desperate, don't you
Speaker 3: when you have to hand out signs and talking points?
Speaker 4: Because these lefty lunatics clearly have absolutely.
Speaker 3: No idea whatsoever why they're there, or who they are
Speaker 3: or who they're supposed to actually be talking about.
Speaker 11: Can you explain a little.
Speaker 4: Bit for our viewers what this means?
Speaker 5: Go ahead, check.
Speaker 2: Government by the least suitable or confident citizens of the state.
Speaker 11: Seems to fit, doesn't it?
Speaker 4: Oh god, it never gets sold. Why are you here?
Speaker 4: Check check my script? Never get sold? And now to liberalism,
Speaker 4: but make it musical.
Speaker 14: Don't give up, not yet, be hopeful, be happy, there's
Speaker 14: still tomorrow. Don't give up, never give up. No no no,
Speaker 14: I won't give up. No no, no up, No. I
Speaker 14: won't get out no no, never give up none no no.
Speaker 5: Love you.
Speaker 11: Of you.
Speaker 3: Wow, American idol eats your heart out. And now to
Speaker 3: this lefty who has today decided to voluntarily tell us
Speaker 3: all about going to the toilet.
Speaker 13: I can't pee in four percent of America right now, so.
Speaker 4: You can't pe in four percent of America.
Speaker 13: In four percent of America, it is illegal for me
Speaker 13: to use the men's restroom in government buildings.
Speaker 15: So because of the biology, feel that they.
Speaker 13: Just passed yes, because I am biologically female, I cannot
Speaker 13: use the men's restroom in Florida or Utah.
Speaker 3: Thank you so much for giving up that information to
Speaker 3: the world so freely.
Speaker 5: There.
Speaker 3: And now to the most difficult question, apparently in this
Speaker 3: day and age, what is a woman?
Speaker 15: Do you think that women have the right to single
Speaker 15: sex spaces?
Speaker 11: Yes, but that needs to include transgender women.
Speaker 15: But transgender women are male, aren't they?
Speaker 11: No, Transgender women are women.
Speaker 15: So if transgender women are women, why are they trans?
Speaker 11: Transgender women are women?
Speaker 15: If they're women, why are they trans? What makes transgender
Speaker 15: women transgender women?
Speaker 11: The fact they are transgender?
Speaker 15: And what does trans mean when it comes before the
Speaker 15: word women? So what's your definition of women?
Speaker 9: Then?
Speaker 11: Anyone who identifies as a woman.
Speaker 15: So that's a circular definition, so it's not telling anyone what.
Speaker 11: A woman is. Anyone who identifies as a woman is
Speaker 11: a woman.
Speaker 15: So on one hand, you think that trans women should
Speaker 15: be allowed into women's only spaces because they're women, But
Speaker 15: you also can't define what a woman.
Speaker 11: Is not by your definition because I'm not a medical doctor.
Speaker 3: It's just such a difficult concept, isn't it. It really never
Speaker 3: gets old.
Speaker 4: Look, let's try it again, person, What is a woman?
Speaker 15: A person is a woman who works the earth.
Speaker 11: There's well for.
Speaker 4: Others, but we are the women's mind. O.
Speaker 1: What is a woman?
Speaker 11: A person is somebody that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're just so triggered, really really triggered at the prospect.
Speaker 4: Of a woman.
Speaker 3: Now to Karmala Harris, who has emerged after months in hiding,
Speaker 3: and she's returned with another word salad.
Speaker 11: And these are the things that we are witnessing.
Speaker 8: Each day in these last few months in our country,
Speaker 8: and it understandably creates a great sense.
Speaker 1: Of fear.
Speaker 16: Because you know, there were many things that we knew
Speaker 16: would happen, many I'm.
Speaker 3: Not told you so, yes, just a reminder the majority
Speaker 3: of Americans, Karmla, didn't.
Speaker 4: Vote for you. And finally, can someone please.
Speaker 3: Give this woman in the background a medal, because really
Speaker 3: she is all of us right now in a world
Speaker 3: of woke.
Speaker 8: You democrats and workers are going to fight back and
Speaker 8: the bend.
Speaker 10: Our jobs and our country ready to fight back.
Speaker 13: Well.
Speaker 3: Former President Barack Obama has attacked the Trump administration's recent
Speaker 3: moves to remove certain media outlets from the White House
Speaker 3: Reporter Press Pool.
Speaker 4: Here is what he had to say.
Speaker 14: Imagine if I had done any of this.
Speaker 4: Let me just I just want to be clear about this.
Speaker 16: Imagine if I had pulled Fox News' credentials from the
Speaker 16: White House Press Court.
Speaker 11: You're laughing, but this is what's happening.
Speaker 3: You see, the only problem with that is Barack Obama
Speaker 3: did try and limit access to Fox News in two
Speaker 3: thousand and nine, unsuccessfully. Fox News wrote at the time
Speaker 3: the Obama administration on Thursday failed in its attempt to
Speaker 3: exclude Fox News from participating in an interview of an
Speaker 3: administration official, as Republican on Capitol Hill stepped up their
Speaker 3: criticism of the hardball tactics employed by the White House.
Speaker 3: Joda me now is Newsweek Senior editor at Large and
Speaker 3: Article three Projects Senior counsel Josh Hammer. Josh, nice to
Speaker 3: see you again. Thank you so much for joining me.
Speaker 3: Look that they're obviously key differences with what these administrations
Speaker 3: have tried to do, but this all just seems a
Speaker 3: little hypocritical.
Speaker 13: Well, it's more than a little hypocritical. It's a lot hypocritical.
Speaker 13: And you know, you know, good for us for having
Speaker 13: this conversation, for pointing out this glaring hypocrisy. Frankly, I
Speaker 13: wonder openly, actually whether Barack Obama even remembers the fact
Speaker 13: that he tried to do that. I mean, I mean,
Speaker 13: he's worn many hats over the years. This of course
Speaker 13: was many years ago. But when it comes to the
Speaker 13: left in general here in the States and frankly across
Speaker 13: the Western world for that matter, if I can extrapolate,
Speaker 13: I mean, but you know, consistency is not necessarily their
Speaker 13: modus operandi. I mean, I mean, these people are just
Speaker 13: arraging hypocrites. They are scaling hypocrites day in and day out.
Speaker 1: There.
Speaker 13: Look at look at Corey Booker's filibuster here, he just
Speaker 13: broke strong third in his record for the longest filibuster
Speaker 13: on the floor of the United States anyway, actually wasn't
Speaker 13: even technically a filibuster, so so the longest floor of speech.
Speaker 13: But Corey Booker, if you go back and look at
Speaker 13: his social media history, he was excoringting the filibuster as
Speaker 13: recently as like a couple of years ago. He was
Speaker 13: in that it was a vestige of a racist bygone
Speaker 13: arrow and people used to filibuster civil rights there. And
Speaker 13: now he's literally have the longest speech to break whose record?
Speaker 13: Oh yeah, the very guy who's filibustering civil rights there.
Speaker 13: So I mean, there's nothing new under the sun. You know,
Speaker 13: Democrats here in the States love to do the very
Speaker 13: things they say were totally ghost and socially non nonconformists
Speaker 13: recently just a few years ago there. But Barack Obama,
Speaker 13: the big problem with him is that his agenda is dead.
Speaker 13: The Barack Obama version the Democratic Party was on the
Speaker 13: ballot in November. That version died.
Speaker 4: At this point, he's.
Speaker 13: Basically just grasping for straws. He's trying to find anything
Speaker 13: remotely possible to try and remain relevant. Unfortunately, his entire
Speaker 13: end all for his political being has been rejected now
Speaker 13: soundly by the American people.
Speaker 4: Absolutely, And you know it's typical of the left, is it.
Speaker 3: It's to do it as I say, not as I do,
Speaker 3: attitude that we see time and time again, and that
Speaker 3: was just display by Obama.
Speaker 4: Now.
Speaker 3: Look, Democratic strategist James Carville, he really has completely lost it.
Speaker 3: He is now claiming that those who cooperate with Donald
Speaker 3: Trump's administration maybe treated the way Nazi collaborators were at
Speaker 3: the end of World War II. This is what he said.
Speaker 17: I'm not saying that these people should be placed at
Speaker 17: pajamas and have their head shaped watched now on Pennsylvania
Speaker 17: Avenue spin Up, I'm not saying that, but I'm saying
Speaker 17: that that did happen.
Speaker 3: Look, it got more and more unhinged as that podcast
Speaker 3: went on.
Speaker 4: Josh, what on earth is he on about? Seriously?
Speaker 13: So it's actually really sad because James Carville was actually
Speaker 13: one of the more seen rational Democrats for a very
Speaker 13: long time. I mean, I mean he was the mastermind
Speaker 13: of the nineteen ninety two Bill Clinton gampaign. You know,
Speaker 13: Bill Clinton, his presidency. Relative to modern Democratic Party standards,
Speaker 13: you wouldn't even recognize the party. I mean the Democratic
Speaker 13: Party of Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carvell, the totally bygone era. There,
Speaker 13: they signed the Defensive Marriage Acting to Law. There was
Speaker 13: there was a major tough on crime legislation, welfare for him.
Speaker 13: I mean that that was Jimmy carveoll Democratic Party from
Speaker 13: thirty years ago, and as recently as like a half
Speaker 13: year to a year ago, Jimmy Carvell was making the
Speaker 13: rounds on left wing podcasts here in America basically telling
Speaker 13: Democrats don't go too far left, don't go too far
Speaker 13: awoke when it comes to the twenty twenty four election.
Speaker 13: So he was actually an immoderately clarion voice of reason
Speaker 13: actually within the broader fold of the Democratic Party. Clearly though,
Speaker 13: he he just hates Donald Trump. I mean, like so
Speaker 13: many people who are both Democrats and Foe Faue fake
Speaker 13: you know, Trump derangement syndrome induced Republicans. There, he just
Speaker 13: has a debilitating case of Trump derangement syndrome, and that
Speaker 13: clearly is affecting his judgment at this point. There, this
Speaker 13: is disgusting stuff. I mean, Donald Trump has he had,
Speaker 13: He has a Jewish daughter, Ivanka Trump, converted to Judaism.
Speaker 13: I know that because, like her, I live in South Florida.
Speaker 13: Like her, I'm Jewish. I know where her Jewish children
Speaker 13: go to grand school or go to preschool. Frankly, so,
Speaker 13: I mean the notion here that don Trump's a crypto fascist,
Speaker 13: it doesn't even pass the Laft test there. All that
Speaker 13: they are doing with with this kind of rhetoric is
Speaker 13: just further alienating half the country. They're the very voters
Speaker 13: that they desperately need to get back into the world
Speaker 13: in order to regain anything remotely resembling relevance to win
Speaker 13: national elections.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like they're completely grappling at straws.
Speaker 3: The reality is the elections over, the Americans made their decision.
Speaker 4: It's time to really move.
Speaker 3: On from this absolutely unhinged, rant lifestyle.
Speaker 4: Now.
Speaker 3: Look, the Trump administration is slashing millions of dollars in
Speaker 3: de EI grants from a library and museum system. This
Speaker 3: is of course part of its overall Doge push to
Speaker 3: try and get rid of government waste, but it's actually
Speaker 3: cutting fifty million US dollars from the Institute of Museum
Speaker 3: and Library in the form of grants, and one of them,
Speaker 3: Bang Josh, have a listen to this, a DEI grant
Speaker 3: of two hundred and sixty five thousand dollars going to
Speaker 3: Queens College in New York to conduct a research project
Speaker 3: on why BIPOP teens read Japanese comic books. Well, thank
Speaker 3: goodness that we've established that. And aside from the progress
Speaker 3: do just making Josh, I mean, what does it say
Speaker 3: about the nonsense waste in government like this?
Speaker 13: I mean, how do you not laugh at that?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 13: I mean I see a headline like that, and I
Speaker 13: just I mean my first thought, Denia is I mean,
Speaker 13: who thought this was a good idea? I mean, what
Speaker 13: kind of mandarin deep in the bowels of the unaccountable
Speaker 13: deep state in Washington, you see, actually came across this
Speaker 13: idea and was like, Wow, we need to allocate US
Speaker 13: tax payer dollars to figure out whether BIPOC people I
Speaker 13: mean whatever that means, and this is left wing jargon,
Speaker 13: but whether BIPOP people like Japanese comic books there I mean,
Speaker 13: why don't we go ahead and try and figure out
Speaker 13: why the children of American Indians prefer Crayola crayon, so
Speaker 13: a different type of crayon there. I mean, you're literally
Speaker 13: just flushing money down the drain at this point. I mean,
Speaker 13: it's just so utterly stupid. This is why to this day,
Speaker 13: Elon Musk's Doze agenda, when you phrase it properly in
Speaker 13: the public pulling to the voters, it remains very successful. Now,
Speaker 13: the Left has done a very successful job of tarring
Speaker 13: and feathering Elon Muskin and Doze there, and unfortunately Tesla
Speaker 13: stock has taken quite a plunge since inauguration day in
Speaker 13: Elon Musk's personal favorability favability rating has gone.
Speaker 4: Down a little bit.
Speaker 13: But when you actually explain what Doze is doing there,
Speaker 13: that they are cutting stupid freaking crap, Like this part
Speaker 13: of my blunt this there, but this is just stupid
Speaker 13: freaking crap. When you are cutting stuff like this, when
Speaker 13: you are cutting DEI programs for me and mar and
Speaker 13: gender ideology instruction for teachers in the Congo, I mean,
Speaker 13: most Americans wake up and they're like, I'm sorry, what
Speaker 13: do you say? I mean, like, what where am I
Speaker 13: harder and tax payer dollars going there? So I say
Speaker 13: keep this up. There's a lot of rumors coming out
Speaker 13: of DC right now that Eli Musk could be out
Speaker 13: of Washington sooner rather than later. I personally expected that.
Speaker 13: I mean, he's the wealthies man in the world. He
Speaker 13: has other things to do with this time. He has
Speaker 13: to manage multiple companies there, but he has to see
Speaker 13: the DOJE operation through, whether it's him or his handpicked disaster.
Speaker 13: This is very very important, frankly, very long overdue work,
Speaker 13: and I look forward to seeing that work continue.
Speaker 3: I completely agree, and I just think it's astonishing that
Speaker 3: for so many years governments have been given these sorts
Speaker 3: of DEI grants out here.
Speaker 4: There and everywhere.
Speaker 3: So you know, you can see why DOJE is needed
Speaker 3: in America right now now.
Speaker 4: Meanwhile, Trump has had a DEI court win.
Speaker 3: The Supreme Court lifted an order that blocked the Trump
Speaker 3: administration from cutting millions of dollars in grants for teacher
Speaker 3: trainings as part of the president's efforts to terminate taxpayer
Speaker 3: funded DEI initiatives. So Josh explain to us what does
Speaker 3: this mean.
Speaker 13: So it's a good ruling insofar as this allows the
Speaker 13: president to have some greater discretionary control over the funding
Speaker 13: decisions within his executs branch. I mean, frankly, danikav and
Speaker 13: being very honest with you, I think it's a pall
Speaker 13: and that we're even having this conversation. I mean, as
Speaker 13: a matter of basic separation of power is basic American
Speaker 13: constitutional law. It should be beyond obvious that the President
Speaker 13: of the United States has the ability to cut funding
Speaker 13: from within his own executive branch. There was only one
Speaker 13: person in America's system of governance who wields the executive power,
Speaker 13: and that's the President of the United States. It's not
Speaker 13: the vice president, it's not the attorney general, it's not
Speaker 13: any random deep state bureaucrat. It's not the dogcatcher, the
Speaker 13: coffee boy, or anyone else. It is the President of
Speaker 13: the United States. He has the executive power, and as
Speaker 13: all sorts of legal scholarship on the topic has confirmed
Speaker 13: over the decades, frankly, over the centuries, the executive power
Speaker 13: entails the decision to control the decisions within your executive branch.
Speaker 13: So it's a very simple ruling. I find that a
Speaker 13: little disturbing. As the lawyer myself that this was not
Speaker 13: a nine to zero ruling. I believe it was five
Speaker 13: to four of America prepty. Unfortunately, everything these days is politicized,
Speaker 13: even when it comes to be a Supreme Court. The
Speaker 13: Court is going to have their hands full over the
Speaker 13: rest of this Trump presidency because the Left is going
Speaker 13: to just keep on coming at with all these NGOs
Speaker 13: and left wing public interest nonprofits. The litigation is going
Speaker 13: to keep on coming. The Court is going to have
Speaker 13: to stand firm. I wish that I could confidently project
Speaker 13: to this audience and say that I think that they're
Speaker 13: going to do the right thing day in and day
Speaker 13: out there. Unfortunately, I've been burned too many times, but
Speaker 13: tend to be a little bit more realistic and sober
Speaker 13: when it comes to the Supreme Court. Where they got
Speaker 13: to right this time, and that's good.
Speaker 3: Yeah, the only win is out of this long litigation
Speaker 3: over the next few years and the lawyers who will
Speaker 3: be absolutely raking in the money because of the constant
Speaker 3: left trying to take Trump to court. Now, look, Vice
Speaker 3: President jd. Vance has suggested that he could indeed run
Speaker 3: for president in twenty twenty eight if he delivers as
Speaker 3: Vice president.
Speaker 16: This is what he said, it's the presidential election in
Speaker 16: twenty twenty eight.
Speaker 2: When we get to that point, I'll talk to the president,
Speaker 2: we'll figure out what we want to do. But the
Speaker 2: way that I think about it is, if we do
Speaker 2: a good job, the politics take care of themselves.
Speaker 3: Josh, there's no doubt. Come on, hey will run, don't
Speaker 3: you think.
Speaker 13: Look, I think if the Trump presidency goes as expected,
Speaker 13: and look, I mean the jury is currently out on
Speaker 13: the tariffs, arts are clearly not reacting very well to it,
Speaker 13: we will see what happens in the midterm electians next fall. Personally,
Speaker 13: I think that the economy will more than rebound by them.
Speaker 13: This is quite a short term disturbance. But there are
Speaker 13: a lot of people that are already panicking, saying the
Speaker 13: Republicans are getting set to lose the Congress next fall.
Speaker 13: I'm not one of those people. It's a long ways away.
Speaker 13: Americans have a very, very very short memory. So to
Speaker 13: have this kind of chatter in April twenty twenty five,
Speaker 13: a year and a half before the elections, strikes me
Speaker 13: as wildly premature. But all that has to say that
Speaker 13: if the Trump presidency is a generally successful presidency, when
Speaker 13: it comes to the economy, when it comes to immigration,
Speaker 13: foreign affairs, all the various important issues there, and I
Speaker 13: like what I see certainly thus far. Then yes, I mean,
Speaker 13: of course Jade Vans is going to run for twenty
Speaker 13: twenty eight. I would be absolutely shocked if not. The
Speaker 13: only possible way that I can see that not happening
Speaker 13: is if Donald Trump somehow does try to argue some
Speaker 13: sort of interesting twenty second Amendment constitutional loopholand or to
Speaker 13: himself run for a third term. That's probably not going
Speaker 13: to happen, in part because it's kind of legally dubious,
Speaker 13: and be honest with you, it's not a very strong
Speaker 13: argument there that would pass constitutional muster. So assuming that
Speaker 13: his lawyers don't try to finagle that sort of outside
Speaker 13: the box thinking that, I think JD. Vans will run,
Speaker 13: and Frankie he probably will be the favorite at that
Speaker 13: point as well.
Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely no doubt. Now, look in some absolutely fabulous
Speaker 3: notes news, I've got to say Tim Walls apparently will
Speaker 3: not be running again.
Speaker 4: Have a listened.
Speaker 2: Well, I'm certainly thinking about running again in Minnesota if
Speaker 2: that's what they want. I am not thinking about running
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty.
Speaker 4: Eight Josh, what a great relife that is.
Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean, talk about the least memorable vice presidential
Speaker 13: running mate ever. I mean, I guess, right up there
Speaker 13: with Tim Kaine with Hillary Clinton in twenty sixteen. People
Speaker 13: forget that Tim Kane even ran frankly for vice president,
Speaker 13: I mean, tampon, Tim Walls did not exactly make a
Speaker 13: smoking name for himself on the national stage. I mean,
Speaker 13: people to this day will remember Tim Walls still properly
Speaker 13: and rightfully, as the man who set the George Floyd
Speaker 13: Riots on a national conflagration. He could have contained that,
Speaker 13: he could have nipped in the above there. Instead, he
Speaker 13: and his and his left wing spouse, and all the
Speaker 13: left wingers there in the in the government in Minneapolis
Speaker 13: and Saint Paul, they let the fire spread. They were
Speaker 13: tacitly and in some ways not so tacitly, encouraging the
Speaker 13: riose to spread. And ultimately we saw billions and billions
Speaker 13: of dollars in property damage from left wing vandals and
Speaker 13: arsonists and generally just anarchists there in this twenty twenty
Speaker 13: horrific summer. So Tim Wallas's legacy is terrible. I'm sure
Speaker 13: that he's frankly not going to be successful if he
Speaker 13: runs again in Minnesota. I think the voter's even there
Speaker 13: in that center left say, probably had too much of
Speaker 13: him there Where the Democratic Party goes from here, I
Speaker 13: frankly have no idea. I'm just very happy it's not
Speaker 13: my problem. But I do feel pretty confident saying that
Speaker 13: Tim Walls is not the future. He's not the past either. Boy,
Speaker 13: he's not the past. He's not the president. He's definitely
Speaker 13: not the future.
Speaker 4: No, I mean it was completely invisible in the past.
Speaker 3: Let's be realistic, so couldn't this He's established he won't
Speaker 3: run again. But look, part of that interview, and I
Speaker 3: found this particularly interesting. He was asked about Joe Biden's decline,
Speaker 3: and I thought that his answer was very telling.
Speaker 4: This is what he said.
Speaker 16: Do you think your party needs to acknowledge that President
Speaker 16: Biden was not up for the job of running for
Speaker 16: reelection and that this was a major mistake.
Speaker 3: But he made that.
Speaker 16: Decision, I know, but you all went along with that
Speaker 16: he was up for it and he wasn't, and everybody
Speaker 16: saw it and the country rejected it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, look, history will tell us to go back
Speaker 2: on that. That very well could be the case, Jake,
Speaker 2: what I'm concerned about is learning from those lessons. I
Speaker 2: would hope we would never do it again, make a mistake, Josh.
Speaker 3: Learning from those lessons, history will look back on that.
Speaker 3: I personally took that as an admission they didn't know
Speaker 3: all along that Joe Biden had declined.
Speaker 4: How do you read that?
Speaker 13: I read the exact same way you read it. So
Speaker 13: this that's my first time seeinges interview with Jake Tapper.
Speaker 13: That's pretty astounding stuff. Frankly from Tim Wallace there. That
Speaker 13: is really kind of jaw dropping stuff that he would
Speaker 13: basically admit this a national television It's not really emitting
Speaker 13: a whole lot because we basically all knew this, But
Speaker 13: for the guy who was actually God forbid, who could
Speaker 13: have been the vice President United States, who actually go
Speaker 13: ahead and say that to a very friendly leftist center
Speaker 13: commentator in this case, Jake Tapper's that's no small news.
Speaker 13: The Democratic Party likes to take the moral high grounds.
Speaker 13: They think of themselves as being the morally superior statesman,
Speaker 13: the morally superior elected officials, the morally superior human beings
Speaker 13: in general here in the United States. There but we
Speaker 13: have not scratched the surface of the who knew what
Speaker 13: and when did they know? Its scandal that is going
Speaker 13: to go on for a very very long time when
Speaker 13: it comes to Joe Biden and his decline. But decline
Speaker 13: is actually a relative term because if you go back
Speaker 13: and actually look at some of the reporting that's come up.
Speaker 13: The Wall Street Journal had a very deep dive a
Speaker 13: couple months ago, for instance. There, if you go back
Speaker 13: and actually look at the reporting, people say that it
Speaker 13: was obvious from within the first weeks, the first months
Speaker 13: of the Biden presidency, going back to the year twenty
Speaker 13: twenty one, that this guy did not have all of
Speaker 13: his wits about them there. Frankly, go back and look
Speaker 13: at the at the footage from even the twenty twenty
Speaker 13: Democratic primary, and you compare that to Joe Biden back
Speaker 13: from two thousand and when he ultimately became Barack Obama's
Speaker 13: vice president. Something clearly happened between the years twenty eight
Speaker 13: and twenty twenty. So by the time that you know
Speaker 13: that this last year came in twenty twenty four, I mean,
Speaker 13: he was just totally beyond out to lunch. And like
Speaker 13: I said, we have not even scratched the service of
Speaker 13: this there. I expect there to be some sort of
Speaker 13: maybe even Church Committee style investigation here when it comes
Speaker 13: to the United States Senate using their subpoena power. I
Speaker 13: wanted to see all. I mean, we should not spare
Speaker 13: anything when it comes to trying to root out what
Speaker 13: the Biden family knew, when did they know it, who
Speaker 13: was making these decisions there, who was he actually signing
Speaker 13: the pardons? I mean, I mean, these are all very
Speaker 13: very very real questions, and I think the American people
Speaker 13: want to answers. Frankly, they actually really deserve those answers
Speaker 13: to well.
Speaker 3: No, I completely agree, and actually speaking of a former
Speaker 3: White House doctor is going to be grilled by House
Speaker 3: Republicans for hiding Joe Biden's decline.
Speaker 4: You know, this could be a key moment.
Speaker 3: I think, Josh, this could be the key moment where
Speaker 3: we find out what that doctor knew and either or
Speaker 3: not there was indeed a cover up.
Speaker 13: So I look forward to this very much. I mean, look,
Speaker 13: so so so medical records we're not going to be
Speaker 13: able to access, right, We're not gonna be able to
Speaker 13: actually see, uh the literal documents there. We're not able
Speaker 13: to see the communication that the doctor had with with
Speaker 13: the president, with with with with quote unquote doctor Jill Biden,
Speaker 13: because that's a shielded by by America is somewhat busy
Speaker 13: time privacy laws, especially when it comes to medical records.
Speaker 13: But he can basically, he can certainly speak about it there,
Speaker 13: and he can basically then put the ball back into
Speaker 13: Joe and Jill's court and say no, no, no, no no.
Speaker 13: But I mean, I mean, what about the chief of staff.
Speaker 13: I mean, I mean, what about like Jeff Zien's I mean,
Speaker 13: what what about the what about the Biden inner circle
Speaker 13: people there? I mean, I ultimately do want to hear
Speaker 13: from them, Get them under oath, I mean, get all
Speaker 13: these people under oath. The Republicans controlled the United States
Speaker 13: House and the United States Senate. That means they have
Speaker 13: the subpoena power. The subpoena power is pretty Seriousnes's country there.
Speaker 13: You might be able to make some sort of executive
Speaker 13: privilege argument and in order to finagle yourself out of
Speaker 13: getting a subpoena there, but easier said than done, and
Speaker 13: courts do not typically look very fairly there because the
Speaker 13: subpoena power is actually very broad. Frankly, multiple MAGA acolytes
Speaker 13: like Pierre Navarro and my friend Steve Vannin just went
Speaker 13: to prison because of their of their quote unquote defiances
Speaker 13: of their congressional subpoena. So this is very serious stuff there,
Speaker 13: and I hope there a Republicans in both the houses
Speaker 13: that actually use this power again to trying to get
Speaker 13: to the bottom of this horrible scandal.
Speaker 3: Yeah, look, I think get your popcorn ready. I really
Speaker 3: hope we finally get an answer to what wentong and
Speaker 3: who knew what? Josh Hammer, nice to catch up with you.
Speaker 3: Thanks so much for joining us on the show this evening.
Speaker 4: My pleasure. Thank you so much.
Speaker 3: Still to count Barack Obama's frank marriage admission fuels divorce
Speaker 3: rooms with Michelle Kinsey Scofield, all these upmoms, welcome back
Speaker 3: to the program. Joining me now is celebrity and royal
Speaker 3: commentator Kinsey Schofield. Kinsey, thank you so much for joining
Speaker 3: me on the show this evening. Let's start with Barack Obama.
Speaker 3: The former US President has told a Q and A
Speaker 3: at Hamilton College in New York that he was quote
Speaker 3: in a deep deficit with his wife, Michelle, having spent
Speaker 3: eight years in the White House, adding that he's also
Speaker 3: been trying to dig himself out of that hole by
Speaker 3: doing occasionally fun things. Now, Kenzie, look, this is interesting
Speaker 3: because of course there's been a lot of rumors circulating
Speaker 3: lately that perhaps the term Michelle and Baraka are heading
Speaker 3: for divorce, and this sort of brutally honest COVID won't
Speaker 3: help that speculation, will it.
Speaker 9: I feel like we're on bo Divorce Watch, Barack Obama
Speaker 9: Divorce Watch.
Speaker 4: It's every other day.
Speaker 9: A story like this is coming out, whether it's him
Speaker 9: spotted somewhere with alt Michelle Obama. There was that really
Speaker 9: cute picture he accidentally photo bombed these kids having their
Speaker 9: photos professionally taken a few days ago. When these two
Speaker 9: ever together or talking lovingly about each other? Whenever I
Speaker 9: hear Michelle talking about her husband, it's derogatory on her
Speaker 9: new podcast. So I do think that it's we have
Speaker 9: rates to be discussing it right now. I think that
Speaker 9: there's something very odd going on. Any pr professional in
Speaker 9: their right mind would tell these two either be seen
Speaker 9: together or say nice things.
Speaker 4: About each other.
Speaker 3: Yeah, from a publicity perspective, do something to make it
Speaker 3: look like you are actually still together.
Speaker 4: We'll be watching this one closely. Won't wait.
Speaker 3: Now, Look, you mentioned that podcast and it's actually bombed.
Speaker 3: Michelle Obama's new podcast, This is the one that she's
Speaker 3: done with her brother, Craig Robinson.
Speaker 4: The ratings are so bad, reaching.
Speaker 3: Just thirty fourth on the Spotify podcast streaming charts. Kimsey,
Speaker 3: this is quite an embarrassment for the former First Lady.
Speaker 9: I don't think that this is what the audience ever
Speaker 9: wanted from her. Her sitting on a microphone and just
Speaker 9: shooting the un know what with her brother and taking
Speaker 9: swapes at her husband every other episode. I don't think
Speaker 9: that that's what they want it all. There's also a
Speaker 9: bitterness in her tone, and I think that Barack Obama
Speaker 9: and his family sold themselves on hope and change and
Speaker 9: so to lack that I think has really been detrimental
Speaker 9: to her brand. But Megan Markle, watch out your next
Speaker 9: April eighth Confessions of a Female Founder.
Speaker 4: We're going to be watching your numbers too. Oh gosh.
Speaker 3: Well, I mean now I think we can safely say
Speaker 3: that one is going to be a flop from the
Speaker 3: very beginning. And I look, speaking of Megan, she's suffered
Speaker 3: yet another humiliating setback and this is over the launch
Speaker 3: of her new lifestyle brand. As Ever, now customers Kinsey
Speaker 3: who bought her twenty eight dollar honey, they've been told
Speaker 3: that actually they're not going to be receiving that product.
Speaker 1: Why not?
Speaker 9: Can we just take a moment? Can we take a moment?
Speaker 11: Can you believe that?
Speaker 9: I mean, seriously, as my friend, can you believe that
Speaker 9: this headline is real? You are a woman, you insist
Speaker 9: we were to you as a duchess. You have all
Speaker 9: of the resources in the entire world, and you are
Speaker 9: having to send emails to your customers to apologize because
Speaker 9: the product that they purchased and paid for doesn't exist.
Speaker 9: It doesn't exist. Can you believe this? I mean, I
Speaker 9: honestly thought that this was an onion headline, a parody
Speaker 9: when I read it. What horrible planning. And also I
Speaker 9: would stress that we were warned about this from the
Speaker 9: Daily Mail a week or so ago. They announced that
Speaker 9: the company that's actually running Megan's website some of their
Speaker 9: customers said, beware, don't use anyone that goes in business
Speaker 9: with these people, because they sell products that don't exist.
Speaker 9: And here we are today. It's frightening.
Speaker 4: It actually is unbelievable.
Speaker 3: You're right that she all this hype I'm launching a
Speaker 3: lifestyle brand and to absolutely bugger it up so sensationally
Speaker 3: when you actually go on sale.
Speaker 4: Is extraordinary, Kinsey.
Speaker 3: I mean, well, I'm not surprised, to be honest, but geez,
Speaker 3: it's so so bad. Now, look, let's move on, because
Speaker 3: it's official. Bianca Sensori is done with Kanie West, and
Speaker 3: it seems she's gone completely a wall, even ignoring attempts
Speaker 3: by Kim Kardashian to reach out and show her some
Speaker 3: support amid this split. Tell us a bit more about
Speaker 3: what's going on, Kinsey.
Speaker 9: So when Kim found out, along with the rest of
Speaker 9: the world, that Bianca had officially left Kanye, she privately
Speaker 9: reached out to her privately. I mean, we're hearing about it,
Speaker 9: so obviously she told somebody and Bianca did not respond,
Speaker 9: and that became the story. But I would say to you,
Speaker 9: I imagine that Bianca is in a really weird, potentially
Speaker 9: scary place right now, distancing herself from Kanye. You know,
Speaker 9: he raps about how she was scared of his behavior online.
Speaker 9: So I'm sure she's behaving very carefully going forward. Not
Speaker 9: sure what he'll say, what he'll do how he'll react. Also,
Speaker 9: come on, Kim Kardashian, knowing what we know about her,
Speaker 9: doesn't everything, even if it is sincere empathy, doesn't everything
Speaker 9: feel like a PR stunt? If I were a Bianca,
Speaker 9: i'd keep my distance too.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Look, I think that's a very very fair point. It's
Speaker 3: really none of Kim's business, to be honest, And yeah,
Speaker 3: I do worry about Bianco, that's for sure, you know,
Speaker 3: because Carnee is clearly unhinged. You don't know what he's
Speaker 3: going to do day by day. It's just a shame
Speaker 3: it's taken this long to actually split, because she can
Speaker 3: certainly do a lot better than somebody.
Speaker 4: Like Karnee West. Now, as we all know, it starts
Speaker 4: with us.
Speaker 3: Actress Blake Lively is a course suing co star Justin
Speaker 3: Baldoni for alleged sexual harassment, among many other things that
Speaker 3: went down on set there. But she's now under fire
Speaker 3: for her own what's being described as disgusting act while
Speaker 3: filming A Simple Favor in twenty eighteen. Now, this is
Speaker 3: apparently because she grabbed actor Henry Golding's crutch during an
Speaker 3: improvised scene. Now, she later laughed about the impulsive improvisation
Speaker 3: in the movies behind the scenes feature saying, Hey, nice
Speaker 3: to meet you.
Speaker 4: Can I grab your nuts really hot?
Speaker 3: But look, given what's going on Kinsey at the moment,
Speaker 3: what do you make of this?
Speaker 9: What I make up this is? This is another Megan Markle.
Speaker 9: There are receipts. Be careful what you say, be careful
Speaker 9: what you do, because if you go and accuse someone
Speaker 9: of not having the proper intimacy coordinator on set because
Speaker 9: they're trying to you know, freestyle it, then you can't
Speaker 9: do the same thing to your male co star in
Speaker 9: a different scenario. And again, you know, I know a
Speaker 9: lot of people compare her to Amberhard, but to me,
Speaker 9: this is a Megan Markele move where she accuses someone
Speaker 9: of doing something that we know she's done previously. You're
Speaker 9: a bully, I'm a bully, etc. So, yeah, Blake, you
Speaker 9: have got to behave yourself going forward because your case
Speaker 9: is crumbling.
Speaker 13: Yeah.
Speaker 3: At the Sames before we let you go, King Charles
Speaker 3: is reportedly raring to go and looking forward to spending
Speaker 3: some time in Italy at next week, Kinsey, and this
Speaker 3: follows his recent health scare.
Speaker 9: I can we just say that this is also in
Speaker 9: the midst of celebrating his twentieth wedding anniversary.
Speaker 4: Can you believe that?
Speaker 9: I mean, I want to say, I'm so grateful that
Speaker 9: he feels well enough to take this first state visit
Speaker 9: of twenty twenty three, I think since marcha yeah, of
Speaker 9: twenty it's his first date visit of twenty twenty five,
Speaker 9: but it's also his first since March of twenty twenty three.
Speaker 4: Because of his health battle.
Speaker 9: And I love that he's chosen to go to Italy,
Speaker 9: and he's also going to be celebrating twenty years with
Speaker 9: Queen Camilla. And as a Diana fan, I'm surprised to
Speaker 9: say that.
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, I gret look to it. Look twentieth anniversary
Speaker 3: in Italy. It's romantic. I think it's actually quite nice.
Speaker 3: Kinsey Schofield, thank you so much for joining me this evening.
Speaker 4: Good to see you. Well that's it for me. Up
Speaker 4: next is News Night, Good Night
Speaker 9: Four
