Speaker 1: From the Skying Center.
Speaker 2: This is Paul Murray Live. Thank you very much for
Speaker 2: watching Welcome to the Man Cave. We have got all stars tonight.
Speaker 2: It is all killer, no filler.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I'll have my say about what happened with Trump today.
Speaker 2: It won't be very long because it doesn't require anything
Speaker 2: longer than that. I'll explain why in a second. As
Speaker 2: I said Bromwin Bishop, the carry out a champ, Joe
Speaker 2: Hill the brand here. It'll be a fascinating chat. How's
Speaker 2: Joe going to tell us? How Elbow's going to win?
Speaker 2: And how willin put him back in his corner? And
Speaker 2: the wonderful Meghan Kelly about all things to do in
Speaker 2: the United States, including some of the big changes that
Speaker 2: maybe don't make the news here in Australia but are
Speaker 2: really important to talk about now. As always most important
Speaker 2: country in the world, ours, let's talk about it. The
Speaker 2: cleanup operation begins now in Queensland after the floods now
Speaker 2: not all over, not everyone out of the woods yet,
Speaker 2: but a little respite with things, meaning that the Premier
Speaker 2: was in Ingham today. Ingham, of course, the town that
Speaker 2: is between Keynes of the north Townsville in the south.
Speaker 2: All of it right up into the north of our car.
Speaker 2: Here is what David Crucifoley had to say while inspecting
Speaker 2: what mother nature has brought over the past few days.
Speaker 2: And next focus is the power. We've got to get
Speaker 2: permanent power.
Speaker 3: We've flown workers Inviyrair to try and get them in
Speaker 3: ahead of the game.
Speaker 2: It makes me proud to be a Queenslander.
Speaker 1: It really is special.
Speaker 3: So you know, to think that a town has rallied
Speaker 3: the way that it has and a state has rallied
Speaker 3: around that town, that everything you need to know about
Speaker 3: this state.
Speaker 2: Now, obviously our reporters have been all over this, and
Speaker 2: particularly Lauren who has been in the area doing her reporting.
Speaker 2: They were actually flown in by a chopper to part
Speaker 2: of the area today. Now all of our team have
Speaker 2: today a local legend, and I say legend because he
Speaker 2: went out of his way to help our crew and
Speaker 2: I know how much of Fanny he is, of the
Speaker 2: Channel and of this show in particular, so I want
Speaker 2: to give a massive shout out to Joey. Joey runs
Speaker 2: a excavations company which is a JdE Flow or JdE
Speaker 2: flow of excavations. But more importantly he was there helping
Speaker 2: our crew tell the story of his mates in that city.
Speaker 2: So to Joey, to his beautiful daughter and everyone else
Speaker 2: who is very kind when our reporters, our camera crews
Speaker 2: go out into real Australia, thank you so much. You
Speaker 2: help tell the stories better than any reporter can. Lauren
Speaker 2: and her team thank you, and certainly I thank you
Speaker 2: and Joey. I look forward to one day finding a
Speaker 2: way to meet you. I'll certainly give you a call
Speaker 2: to morrow to say thank you for everything you did
Speaker 2: for our team today. Strength and love to everyone who
Speaker 2: was involved in what has been taking place in our
Speaker 2: north Now, as we know, the Prime Minister is a
Speaker 2: handsome little boy when it comes to his very cozy
Speaker 2: relationship with the Chinese Communist Party leader Xi Jinping. And
Speaker 2: we know why because there's votes in it. You see,
Speaker 2: if you stand up to China, the message goes back
Speaker 2: and people who might be getting the information through we
Speaker 2: chat or something else, will they change their vote. In fact,
Speaker 2: communities who voted in twenty nineteen, twenty sixteen, twenty and
Speaker 2: thirteen twenty ten liberal all decided in one election, all
Speaker 2: at the same time for one particular reason.
Speaker 1: To change their vote.
Speaker 2: Now, as you can see, good analysis here which was
Speaker 2: done in the Financial Review. It shows that Chisholm, which
Speaker 2: was won by labor being along read won by labor.
Speaker 2: Also Morton, which was held onto by labor banks which
Speaker 2: also I think, well I didn't change, but very close
Speaker 2: at the election. All of that affected by a significant
Speaker 2: amount of people who speak Mandarin and home and they're
Speaker 2: changing their vote now, as you know, standing up to China,
Speaker 2: which results in will ban this and will punish you that,
Speaker 2: and will sort of put metaphorically your head on the
Speaker 2: spike and we'll make sure that we wave it around
Speaker 2: the village.
Speaker 1: So every other middle power.
Speaker 2: Country knows not to mess with China because they can
Speaker 2: cut you off financially, because we as a nation have
Speaker 2: all been stupid enough to slowly but surely sell this
Speaker 2: bit off, that bit off, sell this for cheaper, import here,
Speaker 2: import there, let them make the medicines. You know the story.
Speaker 2: And even after a global pandemic that literally killed millions
Speaker 2: of people, that definitely got worse in China, and by
Speaker 2: all common sense, started in a lab in China. The
Speaker 2: consequences nothing, nothing to see here, because you see, China,
Speaker 2: apart from its financial power, has found a way to
Speaker 2: get into the hearts and minds of millions of people
Speaker 2: around the world via the social media app TikTok, a
Speaker 2: Chinese surveillance app, so much so that the American government
Speaker 2: has said that they would shut it down unless the
Speaker 2: American version of it is sold off because their servers
Speaker 2: are in China. Of course, they serve nothing but intellectual
Speaker 2: garbage to the Western world, while the kids having their
Speaker 2: version of it in China. It's all about being the
Speaker 2: best student you possibly can. So the Australian government decided
Speaker 2: to ban TikTok. You can't use it in Parliament House,
Speaker 2: you can't use it on an MP's computer. Why, you know,
Speaker 2: the national security stuff. But because all the kids are
Speaker 2: on it and they don't care what's happening to their data,
Speaker 2: and they don't care who's got access to their microphone,
Speaker 2: their keystrokes or their camera, because isn't thet aren't the
Speaker 2: cat videos fund?
Speaker 1: Jesus? Isn't all those dancing videos great?
Speaker 2: And they've got the creators around their little finger, pretending
Speaker 2: that everyone on every subject is getting billions of hits,
Speaker 2: even though they know on every other social media platform
Speaker 2: they've barely being able to make it out of the
Speaker 2: tens of thousands. This particular device is dangerous. It is popular,
Speaker 2: which is why politicians will not ban it. So it
Speaker 2: has national security implications and it can't be used officially
Speaker 2: by the government. But the people who make up the government,
Speaker 2: they use the device to say garbage like this.
Speaker 4: It's not April Fool's Day. You couldn't make this up.
Speaker 4: Peter Dutton's latest uncosted policy is to make Australian taxpayers,
Speaker 4: all of them, you pay for businesses, long lunches and
Speaker 4: golf trips. Yeah, you heard that correctly.
Speaker 2: Look, I haven't spent much time pushing back on that rubbish,
Speaker 2: but everyone who actually understands this policy and lives in
Speaker 2: the real world knows what it's really about. You See,
Speaker 2: big businesses are able when they entertain people to be
Speaker 2: able to write off that entertainment right, meaning the taxpayer
Speaker 2: pays for it. Well, of course tax bill doesn't pay
Speaker 2: for anything. It just means they're able to reduce the
Speaker 2: amount of money that they have to pay overall in tax.
Speaker 2: The idea that Peter Dunton has is that if you
Speaker 2: are in small business and you would like to have
Speaker 2: a meeting with someone who is one of your suppliers
Speaker 2: or somebody who helps you out. You would be able
Speaker 2: to potentially write off, say palm me at the pub
Speaker 2: off your tax. That's it. But this garbage that anyway,
Speaker 2: I'll do that another night. But I'm not just stry
Speaker 2: from the main point here, back to TikTok, back to China,
Speaker 2: back to the double standard. And even though the app
Speaker 2: is banned from use by a phone that an MP owns,
Speaker 2: they are still posting to the app from inside Parliament House.
Speaker 2: This is a Cabinet minister doing that.
Speaker 3: What is going on with housing in Australia. I'm Clara
Speaker 3: O'Neil and I'm Australia's new Housing and Homelessness Minister. I've
Speaker 3: been in this job now for about two weeks and
Speaker 3: I've spent much of that time talking to people around
Speaker 3: the country who are badly affected by a housing crisis.
Speaker 2: Seriously, you know, a ban is a ban, not really,
Speaker 2: because of course, the idea that the Wi Fi network,
Speaker 2: police mobile phone reception inside that building garbage. So someone's
Speaker 2: connected to something and if they've got TikTok, then there's
Speaker 2: a world of trouble, okay, which brings us to deep seek. Now,
Speaker 2: deep seek is the Chinese knockoff version of what has
Speaker 2: already been created by other companies, chiefly America about artificial intelligence. Now,
Speaker 2: for those who have not jumped onto Chat, GPT or
Speaker 2: all of the other things that are around, we haven't
Speaker 2: downloaded the latest version of something to your Apple software.
Speaker 2: So maybe all of this doesn't quite mean much to you.
Speaker 2: Think of something that is somewhere between Google, where you
Speaker 2: ask it for information and it goes back and collects
Speaker 2: some of it for you or writes it up for
Speaker 2: you in a little report. And also Facebook where you
Speaker 2: upload the images and then Facebook is allowed to sell
Speaker 2: the images to advertisers. They're able to sell your direct messages.
Speaker 2: None of that's private, by the way, just so you know,
Speaker 2: if it's free on the Internet, you're the customer. But
Speaker 2: unlike the American situation where it is the private companies
Speaker 2: that have the information, the Chinese companies, well, the Chinese
Speaker 2: government has full access to everything that the data is providing.
Speaker 2: So it means they're able to know an awful lot
Speaker 2: about you in the fine print that nobody reads when
Speaker 2: you download these apps. Again, that every single keystroke that
Speaker 2: you make on your mobile phone or your computer, that
Speaker 2: has this downloaded to it, even if they are not
Speaker 2: associated with the app at the time you are using it,
Speaker 2: So say an email or a text or anything you
Speaker 2: do on these devices is recorded by things like like
Speaker 2: deep Seek, like TikTok, and it is available to the
Speaker 2: Chinese government. If you're call with that, If you think
Speaker 2: that's a good trade off for dancing videos, good luck
Speaker 2: to you. I don't. And today our federal government turned
Speaker 2: around and said that they agree as well, because the
Speaker 2: announcement was made today that deep Seek is now banned
Speaker 2: from just like TikTok, all of the government computers in
Speaker 2: all of Australia, the Defense Force, the tax offers, the
Speaker 2: Federal Police, an MP's office in your suburb, all the
Speaker 2: way through to everything in Parliament House. In part this
Speaker 2: is why. And guess what.
Speaker 1: It's all the stuff I've just told you.
Speaker 2: The media's version.
Speaker 5: The Chinese artificial intelligence app deep Seek has been banned
Speaker 5: from Australian government devices over national security fears.
Speaker 6: Labour has banned the Chinese AI tool deep Seek from
Speaker 6: government devices.
Speaker 5: Over fears the chat GPT competitor poses a national security risk.
Speaker 7: Decision to ban the Chinese owned app was made on
Speaker 7: national security grounds after it was deemed to pose an
Speaker 7: unacceptable risk to Australian government technology.
Speaker 2: So these technologies are insidious. They find ways to get
Speaker 2: deep into your systems when you don't really know just
Speaker 2: how deep they are going and where the information is
Speaker 2: going back. Now, remember, if you have one of these,
Speaker 2: you've got a camera that can look at you or
Speaker 2: where you are at any time. It's got a microphone
Speaker 2: that you know is listening to you. Because isn't it
Speaker 2: amazing how often the ads change or your algorithm changes
Speaker 2: based off the thing that you randomly mentioned to somebody
Speaker 2: at a barbecue fifteen minutes earlier. You want to hand
Speaker 2: that full surveillance power over to the Chinese government in
Speaker 2: exchange for dancing videos, Well, good luck to you. But
Speaker 2: both of these technologies of course should be banned. But
Speaker 2: just like any major company that gets too big, it's
Speaker 2: going to be ruled too big to take on. So
Speaker 2: we have a scenario where the federal government knows what
Speaker 2: the dangers are so much so that the federal government
Speaker 2: will not allow any access to these devices on anything
Speaker 2: that could potentially threaten the federal government. But they're completely
Speaker 2: cool with the citizens of Australia being exposed to the
Speaker 2: same security dangers that are deemed too significant and therefore
Speaker 2: are banned for the Australian government. We would not cop
Speaker 2: this in any other area. If the federal government knew
Speaker 2: that there was asbestos in the offices of a federal
Speaker 2: government department, but they didn't tell the rest of the
Speaker 2: community that they got rid of all of the asbestos.
Speaker 2: But we won't tell you about the asbestos at your house.
Speaker 2: People would freak out. But because it's too popular, you
Speaker 2: couldn't possibly shut it down because it will displease a
Speaker 2: government that has got its hooks into too many people
Speaker 2: in business, to many people in academia, because it has
Speaker 2: an ability to distort the news information source of key
Speaker 2: voters in key electorates. They'll just let you lick the asbestos.
Speaker 2: This is not a game. But if the federal government
Speaker 2: is freaked out about it so much so that it's banned,
Speaker 2: why not banned for everyone. We have the capacity in
Speaker 2: Australia to turn around and say that certain URLs are
Speaker 2: just not available now. As a person who has spoken
Speaker 2: quite seriously about censoring the Internet before, I'm very aware
Speaker 2: of the fine line here. But if the back end
Speaker 2: of a website that is made somewhere else is about
Speaker 2: hoovering up your data and your information to a potential
Speaker 2: adversarial power. You wouldn't let it happen, right, So why
Speaker 2: are they letting it happen apart from the Chinese sending
Speaker 2: the message that we always knew that they would stand
Speaker 2: up to us and will change a government. So the
Speaker 2: people who claim to be in it for you and I,
Speaker 2: of course guess what are not in it for you
Speaker 2: and I. They're in it for covering their own backside.
Speaker 2: They're willing to do so with their own data, but
Speaker 2: they don't care about yours. And even when they ban
Speaker 2: it from every computer in Parliament House, they still use
Speaker 2: the Chinese software to upload their cute little videos, hoping
Speaker 2: that people of a certain age will somehow connect with
Speaker 2: them because they're on the top and everyone else is not.
Speaker 2: Which brings me to another little thing that I'm going
Speaker 2: to keep an eye on here, which is with a
Speaker 2: couple of weeks to go of parliament. Now, it all
Speaker 2: depends on when the election is called. But Parliament is
Speaker 2: this week, Parliament is next week, then there's a break,
Speaker 2: then there's another week of Parliament and then presumably we're
Speaker 2: getting pretty close to when they're going to call an election. Today,
Speaker 2: the Australian Federal Government decided to make a rather interesting announcement.
Speaker 2: It follows their announcement that they made a couple of
Speaker 2: years ago, which was that they were going to find
Speaker 2: social media companies for misinformation. Now, remember that legislation was
Speaker 2: so toxic, so terrible, that I made it very clear
Speaker 2: that people wouldn't copy it, and we ended up on
Speaker 2: the right side of history because they decided to abandon it.
Speaker 2: But guess what, everything old is new again? With the
Speaker 2: clock now ticking on the final two weeks of parliament,
Speaker 2: is there a way that vast swathes of what they
Speaker 2: plan is about to come back, but under another form? Now,
Speaker 2: of course, just like I'm suggest about deep Seek, much
Speaker 2: of the truly offensive material that apparently they're going to
Speaker 2: be going after and apparently finding people for if it
Speaker 2: is actually available on the Internet, is garbage that I
Speaker 2: would want blocked out the borders, no question. But today,
Speaker 2: after a review or review of course that they picked
Speaker 2: knowing what the outcome would be, brand new laws are
Speaker 2: going to be put in place to go after the
Speaker 2: very same companies that they wanted to go after for misinformation,
Speaker 2: but this time they claim they want to go after
Speaker 2: it for not just things like online hate, but also
Speaker 2: plenty of things to do with online abuse and sexual assault.
Speaker 2: Now I hope all of that, all of that gets banned,
Speaker 2: no question. But watch this space. It will be fascinating
Speaker 2: to see that. When the actual bill is presented, I'm
Speaker 2: going to compare letter by letter, line by line, and
Speaker 2: sentence by sentence, and let's see just how many of
Speaker 2: the things that they wanted to introduced but they decided
Speaker 2: not to, they'll be able to introduce via a backdoor,
Speaker 2: where of course the headline will be that if the
Speaker 2: opposition does not vote for this, then somehow they are
Speaker 2: voting in favor of child pornography. Watch this space. I
Speaker 2: certainly know that I am to Virgin Australia. Now I
Speaker 2: say our mates because I enjoy flying with them. I've
Speaker 2: never had anything but a wonderful experience with them. They're
Speaker 2: always very kind to me, and I have never hidden that.
Speaker 2: I like the idea of the startup, the person who
Speaker 2: is challenging the company that is the dominant one, and
Speaker 2: one that of course we all know at times a
Speaker 2: little too close to government.
Speaker 1: Well, they currently have a.
Speaker 2: CEO who is on their way out, and there is
Speaker 2: some speculation about whom the next CEO will be. Now,
Speaker 2: I don't know Paul Jones from a bar of soap,
Speaker 2: and I don't know if he's the best choice of
Speaker 2: the worst choice. I've got no idea, but I am
Speaker 2: fascinated that the union movement is now trying to throw
Speaker 2: its weight around, saying that it should have a veto
Speaker 2: power over whether Qatar Airlines will be able to partner
Speaker 2: up with Virgin Australia if the wrong CEO is put
Speaker 2: in place. Now, again, workers have every right to have
Speaker 2: an opinion about their boss, but this would be rather
Speaker 2: unique and weird scenario if the union is going to
Speaker 2: basically demand that the person who may well end up
Speaker 2: being the CEO is not going to be the CEO
Speaker 2: because they don't like the potential CEO. The powerful Transport
Speaker 2: Workers Union says it will withdraw support for Virgin Australia's
Speaker 2: plans to use Qatar Airways planes and its cruz if
Speaker 2: the private equity controlled airline appoints the former Quantus executive
Speaker 2: Paul Jones as a chief executive. But nothing surprising there
Speaker 2: or why are you talking about it on the telly
Speaker 2: Because unbelievably a federal government minister is trying to tell
Speaker 2: a publicly listed company who they should or should not
Speaker 2: choose to be the CEO of the company, and supposedly
Speaker 2: free market and open country, this is not okay, Murray,
Speaker 2: what is doing the bidding of the unions? This, in
Speaker 2: part is what he had to say, firing a shot. Now,
Speaker 2: Remember he represents a government that has the capacity to
Speaker 2: deny Virgin access to some of the basic things that
Speaker 2: are their business. It has the capacity to not allow
Speaker 2: them to grow their business by refusing to let them
Speaker 2: partner up with overseas airlines, and they of course are
Speaker 2: the chief regulator of the industry. For somebody who sits
Speaker 2: around the cabinet table to be offering a public threat
Speaker 2: to a company about whether he chooses the CEO of
Speaker 2: their choosing or not is a ligne too far from me.
Speaker 2: Think I'm making it up. Here's his own words.
Speaker 8: I think most Australians would like to see Virgin choose
Speaker 8: a CEO that has a demonstrated record of putting their
Speaker 8: workers and the public first. It took the transport workers Union,
Speaker 8: with the support of the then Albanezy Opposition, to stand
Speaker 8: up to Quantas about the way it illegally sacked its
Speaker 8: workforce during the pandemic and did a range of other
Speaker 8: things to hurt its workforce. So I would certainly hope
Speaker 8: and expect that virgin would think about that when it
Speaker 8: comes to its choice of CEO.
Speaker 2: A federal government minister. Part of the team that regulates
Speaker 2: an industry is standing with the union that is threatening
Speaker 2: the private company about whom they choose to make its leader.
Speaker 2: This is extraordinary. And what about that nice little one.
Speaker 2: Now again, Quantas did illegally sack its workers during a
Speaker 2: part of the COVID pandemic. The High Court or sorry courts,
Speaker 2: of course turned around and backed in the unions and
Speaker 2: corners had to pay significant penalties as they should have.
Speaker 2: But nice try, Murray wad to pretend that the lo
Speaker 2: part is always on the side of the worker and
Speaker 2: always standing up to Quantas. You do know that I'm
Speaker 2: able to show you the image of upgrade Elbow because
Speaker 2: of the Australian public's understanding of his closeness to the
Speaker 2: bloke who used.
Speaker 1: To run the airline when he.
Speaker 2: Of course got the upgrades for private travel, let alone
Speaker 2: the oh so cozy deals where we'll keep some of
Speaker 2: the foreign players out, and you just miraculously back in
Speaker 2: the political campaigns that we do nothing, see nothing at all.
Speaker 2: As for question Time today and the usual nonsense which
Speaker 2: is playing out where the government is trying to gaslight
Speaker 2: the Australian people that despite the fact that everything is
Speaker 2: worse under this government, apparently everything is.
Speaker 8: Everything is.
Speaker 1: Everything is.
Speaker 2: Now. I mentioned last night a survey I think I
Speaker 2: said finder, it's not it's done by compare the market,
Speaker 2: which is that a very significant number of Australians have
Speaker 2: just one hundred bucks in the bank. These are the
Speaker 2: people who aren't just paycheck to paycheck to paycheck, but
Speaker 2: they run out of money probably the best part of
Speaker 2: two weeks into the month of money that they get
Speaker 2: on the fifteenth of the month. One in five people. Well,
Speaker 2: a little more detail on the same survey, because I
Speaker 2: only had the headline for you last night, are worrying.
Speaker 2: Eighteen point seven percent of Australian survey reported at having
Speaker 2: just one hundred dollars or less to their name. With
Speaker 2: high grocery prices, rising insurance premiums, increased energy costs pushing
Speaker 2: their savings to the brink. Four in five Australians, or
Speaker 2: seventy nine point two say that the cost of living
Speaker 2: is impacted on their ability to save money over the
Speaker 2: past twelve months. So the Prime Minister can try to
Speaker 2: say everything will be so to Peter Darton, they can
Speaker 2: try to say that somehow there are dark days ahead. Well,
Speaker 2: anyone who has lived in the real world for the
Speaker 2: past three years one outside of the Federal Parliament where
Speaker 2: every politician got a pay rise three of them in
Speaker 2: the past three years, where more public servants have been
Speaker 2: higher than ever before, and every public servant got a
Speaker 2: pay rise that was hist in ten years. The reality
Speaker 2: of Australia under Anthony Abnezi is worth repeating. The number
Speaker 2: of homes that are in financial stress. Worth noting here
Speaker 2: that almost thirty percent of homes are in mortgage stress,
Speaker 2: meaning too big a portion of the money that they
Speaker 2: have is going on paying off the house because of
Speaker 2: the twelve interest rate rises, which in part have cost
Speaker 2: fourteen thousand dollars extra in repayments per five hundred thousand
Speaker 2: dollars that you borrow, So if it's a million, it's
Speaker 2: twenty eight thousand dollars plus fourteen plus fourteen every five
Speaker 2: hundred thousand after that. That's money you did not have
Speaker 2: to pay before this bloke became the Prime minister. Twenty
Speaker 2: one months of a per capita recession leads to the
Speaker 2: worst living standards in Australias. It's nine fifty nine a
Speaker 2: football stadium, A businesses have gone busts three million people
Speaker 2: are this close to homelessness, or three point seven million
Speaker 2: people don't have enough food to get through the week.
Speaker 1: And throw a rental crisis on top of that.
Speaker 2: The country is being increasing its population by the day
Speaker 2: because it's good for the government, at an extra one
Speaker 2: point three million people since they became the government. Oh yeah,
Speaker 2: everything's awesome. We also got some data today from that
Speaker 2: far right wing thing tank, the Australian Bureau of Statistics,
Speaker 2: to help hammer home the point that I've been making
Speaker 2: here every night for the past three years, watching things
Speaker 2: get worse. There is a very significant number of people
Speaker 2: who work more than one job. But there's also a
Speaker 2: very significant number of people who are ready to work
Speaker 2: tomorrow if a job actually turned up. The barriers and
Speaker 2: incentives to labor force participation was the report released today,
Speaker 2: and a line in it says, of the one point
Speaker 2: two million people who want a job, a million of them,
Speaker 2: eighty nine percent of the one point two million people,
Speaker 2: they could start within the first next four weeks. But
Speaker 2: we keep importing people into the country to do these jobs.
Speaker 2: Why would you import people when there is this one
Speaker 2: point two million people who want to work, most of
Speaker 2: which ninety percent of which can do so in the
Speaker 2: next four weeks, and the rest of which could do
Speaker 2: so a little bit later. In fact, to actually show
Speaker 2: you as well, the number of Australians who have more
Speaker 2: than one job. Prime Minister, when it was the Opposition leader,
Speaker 2: used to la banging on about this statistic as an
Speaker 2: example of something terrible in the Australian economy. Well, if
Speaker 2: it was bad before he became the Prime minister, how
Speaker 2: does he explain nine hundred and eighty six four hundred
Speaker 2: people who have to work more than one job to
Speaker 2: make ends meet in a country that is growning as
Speaker 2: a result of his leadership. Good luck making it about
Speaker 2: Darton Powell. This election is about you. One of the
Speaker 2: more popular ideas that Peter Dutton's put on the table
Speaker 2: ahead of the Federal day is that he would like
Speaker 2: to ban all foreign property investment in this country for
Speaker 2: the first two years of his prime ministership. It is
Speaker 2: so popular that seventy three percent of people in marginal
Speaker 2: seats agree, sixty nine percent overall, fifty eight percent of
Speaker 2: Green's voters, almost eighty percent of his own voters, and
Speaker 2: sixty percent of Labor voters. That's all the dark Blue.
Speaker 1: Agree with the idea.
Speaker 2: And just in time. Daily Mail was talking to some
Speaker 2: real estate agents this week and their claiming that there
Speaker 2: has been an increase in the number of buyers coming
Speaker 2: from China to put their hands up at an auction,
Speaker 2: stopping Australians or your kids being able to buy a house.
Speaker 2: It's up by that twenty percent. That's why the idea
Speaker 2: is good, popular and the opposition should talk about it.
Speaker 2: More interesting story in the Telegraph today which was about
Speaker 2: the number of empty jobs there are in the police force,
Speaker 2: not just in one state, your state, but in fact
Speaker 2: in the whole country. About seven thousand spots are available
Speaker 2: and open inside inside the collective police forces of every state,
Speaker 2: every territory. And there's a whole collection of ideas about
Speaker 2: how they can improve this, including the Police Association in
Speaker 2: some states saying payroll tax and the rest of it.
Speaker 2: I've got a few ideas about how you can improve
Speaker 2: the number of people that want to put their hand
Speaker 2: up to be the police force. Number One, governments that
Speaker 2: actually support the police force by giving them the powers
Speaker 2: and giving them the laws that people are not able
Speaker 2: to find. Also clever ways of getting out of making
Speaker 2: sure that a judiciary that constantly is giving the old
Speaker 2: wet lettuce leaf treatment to the people who the police
Speaker 2: actually are able to go find charge and bring before
Speaker 2: a court. And third and most difficult for the government
Speaker 2: is that I want a Royal commission into the effects
Speaker 2: of trauma on people in our emergency services. I've told
Speaker 2: to the story before about a young lady that I
Speaker 2: met one night playing the Pokeys. We started chatting and
Speaker 2: she was out of the paramedic service because of the
Speaker 2: trauma of what she had seen. A couple of blokes
Speaker 2: came and saw me who were former police officers in
Speaker 2: South Australia when we were doing a show in Renmark
Speaker 2: last year, saying that they too would like a Royal
Speaker 2: commission into the lack of support for police once you
Speaker 2: stop being a police officer. If we do not support
Speaker 2: the men and women of this country who wish to
Speaker 2: run towards danger each and every day, not just when
Speaker 2: they are the officers, but after they are the officers.
Speaker 2: Then why would anyone put their hand up to be
Speaker 2: an officer in the first place. I'm pro cop. Humans
Speaker 2: are not perfect, but I am pro COP. I pro
Speaker 2: the institution, and I am pro the people that are
Speaker 2: part of it. I am thankful for what they do.
Speaker 2: I'm not entirely sure that many people who are officers
Speaker 2: of the law in this country would feel as supported
Speaker 2: by their government, and certainly not by their judiciary, and
Speaker 2: increasingly not by some individuals out there who have been
Speaker 2: brought up by parents who challenge all authority and have
Speaker 2: ever since their kids were really little. You know, the
Speaker 2: ones who go and complain about the teacher punishing little
Speaker 2: Johnny because my little Johnny would never do anything wrong. Well,
Speaker 2: of course, what's the lesson they learn? There is no
Speaker 2: authority that can't be ultimately overturned, and so frequently we
Speaker 2: see that in our community. The emergency services deserve support.
Speaker 2: Let's see whether it actually happens. And just finally, I
Speaker 2: want to talk about Donald Trump, and I want to
Speaker 2: talk about the events of today, and I just want
Speaker 2: to be very brief because, as you know, there was
Speaker 2: a meeting today between the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin and
Speaker 2: Who and the President of the United States. And didn't
Speaker 2: the world freak out about what Trump had to say today?
Speaker 2: I mean, clearly there is now it's an official foreign
Speaker 2: policy of the United States, the illegal occupation of a
Speaker 2: sovereign land. He's talking about going in and rebuilding Gaza.
Speaker 5: He's talking about taking control of Gaza, but we still
Speaker 5: have dozens of hostages in Gaza who have not been brought.
Speaker 8: Home forcibly displaced two million Palestinians from the Gaza strip.
Speaker 9: That is ethnic cleansing by another name.
Speaker 2: It's not going to happen, and he knows it more
Speaker 2: than a secure on Pulmary Live.
Speaker 1: That's all I had to say. It's thank you very
Speaker 1: much for watching.
Speaker 2: Remember see you going? Wait, you can't always send me
Speaker 2: an email. Paulitzgoes dot com dot I you Joe Hildebrand
Speaker 2: is here.
Speaker 9: Hello, save me, Hello great man.
Speaker 2: Hello, very good to carry have a champions problem and
Speaker 2: be shipping. No, she's He's sorry, Palace just the way
Speaker 2: it is now. Before we get to other events that
Speaker 2: have dominated the youth day. I don't pro and the
Speaker 2: show based off what everyone else is talking about. I
Speaker 2: like to focus on what matters the most. So let's
Speaker 2: get to the attempt to gaslight the Australian people that
Speaker 2: the Prime Minister is involved in the Labor Party is
Speaker 2: clearly trying to troll the coalition and its supporters that
Speaker 2: everything will be worse under done. Help me out here, Joe,
Speaker 2: if you are aware at all all of some of
Speaker 2: the inner thinkings about this. Cos Samaras, who is of
Speaker 2: course the bloken charge of Redbridge. We have him and
Speaker 2: his team on Sunday nights with Michael Kroger. Anything we're
Speaker 2: going to do every week up until the election called
Speaker 2: state of the Race, which is we're really getting deep,
Speaker 2: like we're really, as I tortured last night for you,
Speaker 2: we're counting the grains of sound on the beach, right,
Speaker 2: that's the joy. Everyone else can to have the view
Speaker 2: of the beach. We're going to get right in to
Speaker 2: what's happening. His view was that this ad is not
Speaker 2: actually about trying to convince people who are soft on labor.
Speaker 2: It's actually about convincing Labour supporters to lock in behind
Speaker 2: and once you lock your base in then you go
Speaker 2: off to fight. But I just think anyone who's kind
Speaker 2: of paying half attention and seeing that add somewhere, and
Speaker 2: there's been a lot of talk of it in the
Speaker 2: past week, I'm going to go worse under the other bloke.
Speaker 1: It is worse under you, Yeah.
Speaker 9: I think.
Speaker 5: I mean, my preference is always for parties to run
Speaker 5: positive campaigns, but negative campaigns, but negative campaign and Chris
Speaker 5: Bins showed it could be done, just be sort of respectful.
Speaker 5: And I think there will come a time where, because
Speaker 5: people are so disillusioned with political institutions, everything will end
Speaker 5: up being a pox on both your houses.
Speaker 9: Every election will be And my name is Pollyanna. But
Speaker 9: but again, this is where we are in a right.
Speaker 6: We are nice, nice Labor Party people with their files.
Speaker 10: I was speaking so one of he was just talking
Speaker 10: about his dream, one of my this.
Speaker 5: Is just my dream as a young girl from the
Speaker 5: Swiss Alps. That obviously like someone who used to run
Speaker 5: ads for the Coalition campaigns, right, this guy I spoke
Speaker 5: to and he said, the number one. If I've got
Speaker 5: two cans of soup and I want customer who's just
Speaker 5: so in between the two to buy my can of soap.
Speaker 5: There is one sure fire way to make that happen.
Speaker 5: And it's not to say mike can of soup is better.
Speaker 5: It's to say that the other can of soup has
Speaker 5: rat poison. H Yeah, yeah, yeah, Now that doesn't cover
Speaker 5: you in glory, but it gets the job done.
Speaker 9: And clearly what Labor is saying.
Speaker 2: So I get their logic here, but does anyone think
Speaker 2: it actually moves the needle because literally to little two
Speaker 2: text cuts did not change their polling. All right, you know,
Speaker 2: one interest rate cut, which we all hope happens, is
Speaker 2: not going to reverse the cumulative the thing, right, but
Speaker 2: that the past three years.
Speaker 5: But what they're doing is pretty much kind of as
Speaker 5: you've been saying, which is they know obviously that people
Speaker 5: are doing it tough.
Speaker 9: They know that people are largely blaming it for so
Speaker 9: we're saying, we.
Speaker 2: Know we're giving you rat poison, but this guy's going
Speaker 2: to give you a double rat poison dearly.
Speaker 5: What you would say, and what I would prefer has said,
Speaker 5: is that we know it's been really really tough, but
Speaker 5: things will get better.
Speaker 9: They are getting better.
Speaker 5: And here's how right, But they know that nobody believes that,
Speaker 5: so they just say, yes, we know things are tough,
Speaker 5: but they will be even worse under done because there
Speaker 5: so it's a double negative.
Speaker 2: Because Promen and I think part of their deep thinking
Speaker 2: four dy chess genius conversations around the lazy Susan as
Speaker 2: it is for the Labor Party. Although I do love
Speaker 2: a lemon chicken, no question, I think that that there's
Speaker 2: some perception here that if they adopt some of the
Speaker 2: language of COVID. Right, you saw the Prime Minister of
Speaker 2: the past couple of days. Look, we've done the hard yards.
Speaker 2: We're working on this together. We've all gotten through a
Speaker 2: flat liqua.
Speaker 9: No like Buggy, you gave us the crisis in the
Speaker 9: first place.
Speaker 2: He's got three pay rides, he's got three pay rises,
Speaker 2: and you know enough rental cash coming through that he
Speaker 2: buys the clifftop Manshen while anyone on a mortgage of
Speaker 2: five hundred thousand dollars had to find fourteen grand in
Speaker 2: the past three years. They are not going to forgive
Speaker 2: him for that. But Labour's very good at pushing their message.
Speaker 2: So what's your retort about how your side should be
Speaker 2: fighting back?
Speaker 1: Because it feels to me like they're not well.
Speaker 6: When I watch that ad, even the cadence of it,
Speaker 6: you'll be worse off. It sort of brings up it
Speaker 6: won't be easy under Alban Easy. It's got the same cadence,
Speaker 6: and I think it brings up that memory of that
Speaker 6: which did stick in people's minds. Megan say, well, actually
Speaker 6: it's right. It was rotten under Alban Easy. So they
Speaker 6: obviously believe it's good. They've obviously run a past their
Speaker 6: focus groups, they've done all their work and whatever. But
Speaker 6: I remember sitting in on a campaign once I won't
Speaker 6: say which one, and watching the presentation of the storyline
Speaker 6: and the full box and dice and I there and
Speaker 6: I thought, oh my god, this is not going to work,
Speaker 6: and it didn't look.
Speaker 2: I'm not an advertising genius, but my immediate suggestion some
Speaker 2: of the most effective political advertising I've seen, which is
Speaker 2: the comparison style advertising. Remember when there was the ad
Speaker 2: and then rud response to the how it happened, Then
Speaker 2: Howard responds, and then eventually it becomes this more liberal
Speaker 2: party should come to that ad straight away, same number
Speaker 2: of tiles, same number of options, and reveal all of
Speaker 2: the things that have been worse under our Beernesi and
Speaker 2: with the simple line of you are worse off under
Speaker 2: OLBERNICI see what happens, right, all right, I look forward
Speaker 2: to the mocking if that idea of actually comes true.
Speaker 2: So we know the federal government got itself into a
Speaker 2: world of pain with the censory of the Internet that
Speaker 2: they were trying to do last year about musoom informosion,
Speaker 2: where they would decide the truth on they wouldn't just
Speaker 2: a body they appoint would decide the information or the
Speaker 2: independent fact checkers that have now, of course, all been
Speaker 2: removed from many of the companies like Meta, Facebook and
Speaker 2: all the rest of it. But there is a new
Speaker 2: piece of legislation which presumably is going to get talked
Speaker 2: up in the next couple of days and forced on
Speaker 2: a vote in the next couple of weeks, which is
Speaker 2: all about going after a whole bunch of other nasties
Speaker 2: on the Internet. Now, Joe again, I'm not going to
Speaker 2: sit here and say, well, for the benefit of free speech,
Speaker 2: the following horrible garbages allowed on the Internet. No one's
Speaker 2: going to sit in there, And that's not the game
Speaker 2: I'm playing. But I am going to see with the legislation,
Speaker 2: and let's see letter for letter, paragraph for paragraph. How
Speaker 2: much of the stuff they dumped is going to be
Speaker 2: in this one and the reason that everyone will have
Speaker 2: to vote for it because the new legislation is about pedophiles.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think the way that it's going to work,
Speaker 5: and it's just a matter of I suppose where the
Speaker 5: line is and how it's actually I think even when
Speaker 5: you see the legislation, a lot will come down to
Speaker 5: how it's in force.
Speaker 9: So you can imagine.
Speaker 5: Obviously I have a few concerns as well, I should declare,
Speaker 5: and she hates me doing it, but I have to.
Speaker 5: My wife as a campaign director for Equality Australia, so
Speaker 5: she's one of the people pushing that organization, is one
Speaker 5: of those pushing for it to go harder. So it
Speaker 5: sits at the moment at a kind of incitement to
Speaker 5: violence test and what they want is to extend to
Speaker 5: racial or gender or vilification or whatever based on any
Speaker 5: of those characteristics. Now, the problem with that is that
Speaker 5: one person's vilification is another person's joke or you know,
Speaker 5: or valid criticism of, say, you know, a particular ideology
Speaker 5: or religion or whatever it might be.
Speaker 9: And so it will be.
Speaker 5: It'll have to be designed very very carefully. But I
Speaker 5: think you do appreciate when you see the anti Semitic
Speaker 5: attacks and you know, f the Jews and etcetera, etcetera,
Speaker 5: clearly there has to be some kind of circum brking.
Speaker 5: I think the bigger problem is that sentiment is there.
Speaker 5: I don't think laws make people change.
Speaker 2: This most thing. Last time I checked, it's already illegal
Speaker 2: to fire bomb child Cassy. It's already illegal to have
Speaker 2: something full of explosives brom when this is my issue,
Speaker 2: right and again, you know, maybe it's how many angels
Speaker 2: on a pinhead, But I think there's sort of some
Speaker 2: key principles in all of this, right, which is that
Speaker 2: we have a government that has already spent a couple
Speaker 2: of years trying to censor the Internet, who won't censor,
Speaker 2: by the way, the Chinese surveillance apps that are either
Speaker 2: social media or AI, but they ban them off their
Speaker 2: own computers. And again, I think what this is really
Speaker 2: about is the next two weeks trying to force Peter
Speaker 2: it up into a scenario where you had a chance
Speaker 2: to vote against re antisemitism and you and you you didn't.
Speaker 2: You had a chance to shut down pornography and you didn't.
Speaker 1: That's the wedge they're.
Speaker 2: Trying to play. So that's why they're going to I'll
Speaker 2: tell you when they will have released the text of
Speaker 2: this about ten minutes before it's voted on.
Speaker 6: Well, I thought they can't quite do that. It's got
Speaker 6: to be brought into the Parliament and there's got to
Speaker 6: be a second reading speech. But look at it this way.
Speaker 6: We've got two problems. We've got a judiciary that is
Speaker 6: weak correct, and we've got the problem of anti Semitism
Speaker 6: which is real and has been lad to fester because
Speaker 6: of a weak prime minister. So they are the two
Speaker 6: problems that should be addressed. So you do it by
Speaker 6: having a mandatory sentence, which is what Darton suggested. And
Speaker 6: now Burke raced in tonight and said, oh, we're got
Speaker 6: to have mandatory sentencing.
Speaker 2: Even though the Labour Party, by the way, voted against
Speaker 2: multiple times mandatory sentencing for illegal gun importation. Oh, because
Speaker 2: we don't believe in manatory sentencing. Because they think somehow,
Speaker 2: you know, a year.
Speaker 6: Olds to the territory, an't there so far being to
Speaker 6: watch the details kids, they know they're so far behind
Speaker 6: on the anti Semitism issue because of their weakness, and
Speaker 6: they're pandering to win seats in Western Sydney and people
Speaker 6: know that. And now they're trying to make up ground,
Speaker 6: which is why Burke's raced in there. And they had
Speaker 6: to be Burke, didn't it.
Speaker 2: No, he's seen the light at a minute too. I've
Speaker 2: got one minute left. I've got one minute left, which
Speaker 2: gives me Brom with the chance. Your observation of Trump today,
Speaker 2: I know you wanted to talk about it because I
Speaker 2: love you. You've got the floor.
Speaker 6: Well, I thought what Trump did today was the ultimate disruptor.
Speaker 6: He came in. I was watching it and when he
Speaker 6: said it, I thought, oh god. And then you start
Speaker 6: to think about what is he trying to do? And
Speaker 6: he is trying to get the Arabs to come in
Speaker 6: and take responsibility.
Speaker 2: You're going to play for a guitar? Well, because they've
Speaker 2: been they've been harboring her masks and they're the ones
Speaker 2: that have been buoquer quote unquote.
Speaker 5: Gar gently weeps. Yeah, it's just true. It's just Trump
Speaker 5: being Trump. It's just Trump like right, you guys want.
Speaker 1: How many people fell into this today?
Speaker 10: But they do a pissed off for we defending it.
Speaker 10: This is exactly what he did with the tariffs in Canada.
Speaker 10: Suddenly says, I'll do whatever you want. He sees this
Speaker 10: Grdian not the old people, the old faces, the old
Speaker 10: tactics haven't worked. Says right, you won't come to an arrangement.
Speaker 10: We're just going to cut the whole thing. We'll just
Speaker 10: buy guys, how do you like that?
Speaker 5: And then just as her must suddenly started releasing hostages
Speaker 5: when he said I unleash hell, yes, you will find that.
Speaker 5: Suddenly they're much more amenable to reaching your negotiating, negotiated solution.
Speaker 6: He says, quite clearly, oil stuff hasn't worked, correct, d
Speaker 6: you since the speak agreement.
Speaker 1: Which you will educate it this whole next week.
Speaker 2: We'll do it earlier. I just got to get out
Speaker 2: of here because we've got Meghan Kelly up in a
Speaker 2: moment or two. Thank you guys to appreciate it, so
Speaker 2: you will be next week, all.
Speaker 1: Right, A quick break than the one of all Meghan Kelly.
Speaker 2: She's fired up tonight plenty to talk about, including the
Speaker 2: stuff you don't really see about how America is changing
Speaker 2: for the bed Warness favorite time of the week to
Speaker 2: talk to out favorite person in the world. What a
Speaker 2: way to say good ay to Meghan Kelly.
Speaker 1: Lovely to see you, Rock, Stay, you've.
Speaker 7: Been hi, It's great to be here. I've been wonderful.
Speaker 2: So it's day what fifteen of Donald Trump as president
Speaker 2: and he has already done more in fifteen days than
Speaker 2: the last bloke did, let's be honest in his hole
Speaker 2: four but maybe twenty years before that.
Speaker 1: I love the pace of change.
Speaker 2: I love that he's actually just just going root and branch, buggerant,
Speaker 2: let's go after all the big problems. And he's going
Speaker 2: to have two soldiers with him. Well, let's see how
Speaker 2: the Senate goes. But basically the first hurdles have now
Speaker 2: been cleared. RFK in health, Tulsi Gabbard in and around
Speaker 2: the national intelligence agencies. Both of these people are great because,
Speaker 2: just like Trump, they see the problem and there's no
Speaker 2: such thing as the too hard basket.
Speaker 7: That's right, and they're not owned by anybody. That's one
Speaker 7: of the most delightful things about them. You know. RFKJ
Speaker 7: has had a lifetime of being being oppositional to big
Speaker 7: Pharma and some of these other large corporate interests, and
Speaker 7: so as Tulsi like Tulsi has had a lifetime of
Speaker 7: questioning the intel agencies and the tactics they're using, and
Speaker 7: whether they're coloring inside the lines when it comes to
Speaker 7: their constitutional mandates and restraints. And that's why they're not
Speaker 7: that popular with the groups they're about to go not
Speaker 7: rule over, but at least have some authority in dealing with,
Speaker 7: which is all the more reason why it's very important
Speaker 7: that they get confirmed and do exactly that. The American
Speaker 7: people left to Trump because the country's not working for them.
Speaker 7: It needed a makeover, or like a serious makeover, and
Speaker 7: you can't make over the country with the cabinet that
Speaker 7: looks just like the last cabinet, including the last cabinet
Speaker 7: of Trump's. We didn't really have a makeover under him.
Speaker 7: He was still figuring out how do I get my
Speaker 7: agenda through. He was taking people's recommendations on, oh, this
Speaker 7: guy's good, you need this guy here, and we later
Speaker 7: found out that many of those people were working against
Speaker 7: Trump and for the so called deep state, which is
Speaker 7: really just another word for establishment types who were entrench
Speaker 7: in the government and don't want to change a thing anyway.
Speaker 7: Trump's ripping all the band aids off, starting a new
Speaker 7: in almost every area, and as the kids say, I
Speaker 7: am here for it.
Speaker 2: The thing that I think is really interesting, And maybe
Speaker 2: it's just because you know, we have such a positive
Speaker 2: view of what these people are going to do, But
Speaker 2: I like that we're sort of getting to this stage
Speaker 2: where I don't care who you slept with twenty years ago.
Speaker 2: I don't care what happened in college. What's your plan
Speaker 2: to do with the job you're about to have? And
Speaker 2: RFKJ and we've talked about this for such a long time,
Speaker 2: and you've done hours and hours and hours of sit
Speaker 2: downs with this guy. Right when he was running for president,
Speaker 2: I remember playing a tape from one of his very
Speaker 2: many speeches where he points out the obvious America is fat,
Speaker 2: and it's sick, and it has chronic diseases that he
Speaker 2: didn't have when his uncle and his father were in
Speaker 2: the middle of the white And anyone who loves America
Speaker 2: knows that's exactly true.
Speaker 7: One hundred percent. And I also feel like, I don't know,
Speaker 7: if you are electing a pope, you need to know
Speaker 7: about the love life, you need to know about serious
Speaker 7: moral personal failings. It's very relevant to the job. But
Speaker 7: in twenty twenty five, you know, America, Australia. I just
Speaker 7: feel like at this point we just need to get
Speaker 7: done just we really need to overhaul these institutions that
Speaker 7: have been stuck mired in their own bad habits for
Speaker 7: decades now. And so rfkj No, I would not date him.
Speaker 7: I would not date Pete Hegseth either. I wouldn't. But
Speaker 7: I love Pete and I think Bobby's great too. To
Speaker 7: have dinner with them, you know, I can be friends
Speaker 7: with them, and I would one hundred percent vote for
Speaker 7: them for the positions they're in. Pete's already doing a
Speaker 7: great job over at Defense, and Bobby's going to do
Speaker 7: a great job over at health. He's an expert on
Speaker 7: the very things that you just ticked off that we
Speaker 7: need somebody to look at.
Speaker 2: I also think it's important to note I've been sort
Speaker 2: of trying to watch what's the pattern of each and
Speaker 2: every day because then, akay, when things get worse, this
Speaker 2: is going to get louder, or if things get better,
Speaker 2: then this is going to get softer. Right, And clearly,
Speaker 2: one of the things that's very different this time around
Speaker 2: is that you know, the four AM tweets that fed
Speaker 2: into the breakfast television that then he was reacting to
Speaker 2: by the middle of the day before people reacted to
Speaker 2: the reaction, and then the feedback loop continues that, sure,
Speaker 2: he's still banging out the truth socials, but because he's
Speaker 2: doing these sort of look, I'm sitting at the desk,
Speaker 2: got any questions for me, guys? You know quick yep, no, yes,
Speaker 2: bang bang bang, that some of the people around him
Speaker 2: have worked out how to let that part of his
Speaker 2: personality fly. But also it means it's being done in
Speaker 2: a quite authoritative setting. It's again, it's not the theory
Speaker 2: of him sitting on the toilet at a him. Is
Speaker 2: him sitting behind the oval doing his job. And I
Speaker 2: think that whoever's behind that, and if it's Trump himself, awesome,
Speaker 2: most likely probably not whoever's put him in that space,
Speaker 2: they know how to get the best out of him
Speaker 2: and what's good for him, because otherwise you end up
Speaker 2: in this feedback loop of outrage.
Speaker 7: Absolutely Trump needs to be talking to the people. He
Speaker 7: needs it. He needs to be in front of a
Speaker 7: camera or in front of a microphone. It's his oxygen
Speaker 7: and it's not just Trump. I have to say one
Speaker 7: of the nice things about this new administration fifteen days in,
Speaker 7: is how transparent and accessible they've all been. You know,
Speaker 7: Pete Heseth put out a video just talk about what
Speaker 7: he's about to do, right from his desk at the
Speaker 7: Department of Defense before. Never seen that from a Pentagon chief.
Speaker 7: Sean Duffy, same thing. Let me give you the latest
Speaker 7: on the airline disaster that we had over the Potomac.
Speaker 7: And then there's another flight that went down in Philadelphia
Speaker 7: on Friday night. Like, here's exactly what we're doing. This
Speaker 7: is what I've done. I brought these people in. It
Speaker 7: doesn't always have to be a big presser, right, it
Speaker 7: can just be the actual guy saying, I know what's
Speaker 7: on your mind. Here's what I'm doing to combat it.
Speaker 7: And that's what Trump's doing, whether it's from the Oval
Speaker 7: or you know, on Marine one wherever he is, just
Speaker 7: popping into the press briefing room. His press secretary has
Speaker 7: been very visible too, Like they really are a vibrant, modern,
Speaker 7: visible presidency. If you could envision the polar opposite of
Speaker 7: the Joe Biden administration, that's what we're experiencing over here.
Speaker 7: You forget, you forget that Trump is seventy eight, Like
Speaker 7: I noticed something. Paul Elon Musk is constantly on X constantly,
Speaker 7: and I don't know how he does it, because look
Speaker 7: at all good he's doing. It's like rescuing astronauts from space.
Speaker 7: It's shooting rockets of his own up there. He runs Tesla,
Speaker 7: which is an innovative electric vehicle company. He runs the
Speaker 7: Boring company where they're trying to bore it through all
Speaker 7: this underground cave material so that we can have high
Speaker 7: speed trains. He runs the Neuralink company, where they're literally
Speaker 7: trying to solve paralysis and have figured out how to
Speaker 7: put something in somebody's brain such that they can control
Speaker 7: the computer just with their thoughts. That's what I think.
Speaker 7: I'm He runs X, he runs Twitter and is on Twitter.
Speaker 7: I'm exhausted. I need a nap just talking about it. Well,
Speaker 7: Trump is the same. That's exactly how Trump is. And
Speaker 7: I don't know if he's just built that way or
Speaker 7: if it's the pseudo fed which I do know he likes.
Speaker 7: But whatever it is, it's they're both constantly awake, alert
Speaker 7: and ready for more. So again, I don't want to
Speaker 7: be married to that like that. I'd be like, go
Speaker 7: to bed. I'm tired, for the love of Pete. But
Speaker 7: I do like it in an executive and a billionaire
Speaker 7: who wants to work for us for free. It's this
Speaker 7: pairing that I think will truly change the world. But
