WEBVTT - The Rita Panahi Show | 14 October 0:00:02.759 --> 0:00:04.479 On scorn Lils Oscodia. 0:00:05.120 --> 0:00:07.200 This is the reader Panecky Show. 0:00:08.560 --> 0:00:11.319 Good evening and welcome to the reader Panicky Show. Coming 0:00:11.400 --> 0:00:14.640 up tonight. Why the latest news poll has the Albanizer 0:00:14.720 --> 0:00:18.880 government in panic mode? The lessons from the failed race 0:00:18.920 --> 0:00:22.560 based referendum. I'll speak with Dan Wild about that shortly. 0:00:23.000 --> 0:00:25.960 The latest from the US with Alex Stein and what 0:00:26.280 --> 0:00:28.920 major motion picture is being slammed as one of the 0:00:28.920 --> 0:00:33.000 worst films ever made. I'll discuss that with Kinsey Schofield 0:00:33.479 --> 0:00:36.760 and we never miss Left is losing it tonight. Kamala 0:00:36.800 --> 0:00:38.680 tries a new Jamaican accent. 0:00:39.040 --> 0:00:40.680 Have you know empathy man? 0:00:42.040 --> 0:00:46.840 You know for the suffering? Now, today's news poll shows 0:00:46.880 --> 0:00:50.080 the Coalition leading Labor for the first time since the 0:00:50.120 --> 0:00:53.840 May twenty two election. This is an enormous boost for 0:00:53.880 --> 0:00:57.080 the opposition and in particular Peter Dutton. Is the one 0:00:57.160 --> 0:01:01.280 year anniversary today of The Voice being defeated, and it 0:01:01.400 --> 0:01:04.560 was through the Voice that Peter Dutton showed Australians that 0:01:04.640 --> 0:01:09.720 he is a conviction politician. He can articulate a conservative 0:01:09.760 --> 0:01:14.360 position and is unashamed about pursuing those goals, something many 0:01:14.520 --> 0:01:17.800 so called conservative leaders in the past have failed to 0:01:17.800 --> 0:01:21.800 do and that strength, that contrast with the Prime minister 0:01:22.080 --> 0:01:26.080 is partly why Anthony Alberize's approval rating has also fallen 0:01:26.520 --> 0:01:29.640 to a new low. Now, let's have a look at 0:01:29.640 --> 0:01:32.480 some of the data. The Coalition have a two point 0:01:32.560 --> 0:01:35.840 lead now over the Labor government in the two party 0:01:35.920 --> 0:01:39.600 preferred figures, the two major parties did not actually see 0:01:39.640 --> 0:01:42.480 a change to their primary vote from the last News poll. 0:01:42.560 --> 0:01:45.880 Coalition is still at at thirty eight percent, Labor at 0:01:45.959 --> 0:01:49.320 thirty one, But that change in the two party preferred 0:01:49.400 --> 0:01:53.080 vote for the coalition is due to more preferences flowing 0:01:53.120 --> 0:01:57.040 to them. Newspaul showed that one percent of the Greens 0:01:57.080 --> 0:02:00.720 went down by one percent and one nation went up 0:02:00.760 --> 0:02:03.560 by one percent. Joining me now for more on this 0:02:03.760 --> 0:02:07.360 as Daniel Wild, Deputy executive director at the Institute of 0:02:07.400 --> 0:02:10.880 Public Affairs, Dan, what do you make of these figures? 0:02:10.919 --> 0:02:14.640 If they hold, will the Albert Easy government be a 0:02:14.720 --> 0:02:15.800 one term? Wonder? 0:02:18.919 --> 0:02:21.959 At the moment reader, if these figures hold, it will 0:02:21.960 --> 0:02:25.120 probably be a labor minority government, but of course the 0:02:25.160 --> 0:02:29.480 momentum is shifting against Labor and towards the Coalition. I 0:02:29.520 --> 0:02:33.520 think your assessment is right, which is that Australians are 0:02:33.600 --> 0:02:37.440 rewarding Peter Dutton and the Coalition for sticking to the values, 0:02:37.480 --> 0:02:40.120 particularly on the Voice to Parliament, where Australians did not 0:02:40.240 --> 0:02:43.800 want to be divided by race. We've also seen important 0:02:43.880 --> 0:02:49.200 policy around nuclear power, around big business and other key areas. 0:02:49.240 --> 0:02:52.239 So you know what this shows, reader, is that Australians 0:02:52.280 --> 0:02:55.880 will back leaders who have vision and who stick to 0:02:55.919 --> 0:02:58.880 their principles and who reflect and speak up for the 0:02:59.000 --> 0:03:02.480 values of mainstream Australians. And that is exactly what Peter 0:03:02.560 --> 0:03:05.359 Dutton and the Coalition are doing at the moment. 0:03:07.400 --> 0:03:10.639 Now. Today does mark the one year anniversary of the 0:03:10.680 --> 0:03:15.960 failed Voice referendum, and the Yes advocates are still in denial, 0:03:16.080 --> 0:03:19.680 utter denial about what happened and why they continue to 0:03:19.720 --> 0:03:24.560 blame things like misinformation and disinformation for the defeat of 0:03:24.600 --> 0:03:29.000 the Voice instead of accepting the reality that the overwhelming 0:03:29.080 --> 0:03:32.320 majority of Australians do not want to be separated by race. 0:03:32.360 --> 0:03:36.240 We don't want to have racial privilege enshrined into our 0:03:36.720 --> 0:03:41.960 founding document. Earlier today, there was a heated debate between 0:03:42.080 --> 0:03:48.360 a NO advocate Warren Mundine and YES advocate Eddie sinnot 0:03:49.760 --> 0:03:50.280 deal with the. 0:03:50.240 --> 0:03:52.560 Real issues of crime to deal with the real issues 0:03:52.560 --> 0:03:57.360 of education and deal with the real issues of economic participation. 0:03:57.680 --> 0:04:00.680 There were many, many pieces of misinformation. It was something 0:04:00.720 --> 0:04:04.640 that the No campaign was able to exploit and use 0:04:04.800 --> 0:04:07.560 very well. Warren's problem with the truth and honesty. Just 0:04:07.600 --> 0:04:08.800 continue worrying. 0:04:08.960 --> 0:04:10.640 This is the lie. This is the lie that he 0:04:10.720 --> 0:04:13.400 goes on with. This bloke is a worrying boy. 0:04:13.480 --> 0:04:15.520 Warren, and I got the statistics, I got all the 0:04:15.520 --> 0:04:18.360 information to show you you're often a fantasy world. 0:04:18.760 --> 0:04:21.880 Start focusing on the local people and. 0:04:21.800 --> 0:04:25.960 Stop going on with this stupidity about calling people lit Now. 0:04:25.880 --> 0:04:29.640 Voice architect Megan Davis has also lashed out. She took 0:04:29.680 --> 0:04:34.200 the opportunity to express her support for Labour's draconian Misinformation 0:04:34.440 --> 0:04:39.240 Bill because she says that the No vote was built 0:04:39.400 --> 0:04:44.760 on lies, so called lies that were propagated, and that 0:04:44.880 --> 0:04:48.800 the result could have been different if those misinformation laws 0:04:48.839 --> 0:04:52.039 were in place. Is she right down where the Yes 0:04:52.200 --> 0:04:54.720 camp victims of disinformation? 0:04:57.720 --> 0:04:59.640 Well, it shows that the elites don't get it. 0:04:59.680 --> 0:04:59.920 Reader. 0:05:00.160 --> 0:05:03.359 One year on, they don't understand why Australians voter know, 0:05:03.800 --> 0:05:06.880 which was the simple reason that we do not want 0:05:06.920 --> 0:05:08.039 to be divided by race. 0:05:08.240 --> 0:05:09.520 It was that simple. 0:05:10.520 --> 0:05:14.279 Now, the interesting question is whether those if these proposed 0:05:14.279 --> 0:05:15.480 misinformation laws were. 0:05:15.360 --> 0:05:17.880 In place, would the No campaign have one. 0:05:18.040 --> 0:05:21.000 I don't know, Maybe they wouldn't have because the misinformation 0:05:21.080 --> 0:05:24.440 laws are about censorship. They are about censoring the opinions 0:05:24.760 --> 0:05:29.040 of mainstream Australians. We saw unprecedented censorship throughout the Voice 0:05:29.120 --> 0:05:32.800 debate by tech companies and by government. And what it 0:05:32.880 --> 0:05:37.000 shows is that on referendum night Anthony Abernezi himself he 0:05:37.160 --> 0:05:41.119 blamed misinformation. Well, it's time to put up or shut 0:05:41.200 --> 0:05:43.960 up to those Yes campaigners who are saying the No 0:05:44.120 --> 0:05:45.400 campaign only one. 0:05:45.680 --> 0:05:47.800 Because of lies. What were they? 0:05:48.440 --> 0:05:52.359 What was the misinformation that the No campaign engaged in. 0:05:52.360 --> 0:05:56.440 They don't have any examples, because there are none. Australians 0:05:56.520 --> 0:05:59.800 understood what the Voice was about. They understood it very 0:05:59.839 --> 0:06:03.520 well and they comprehensively rejected it. 0:06:05.920 --> 0:06:10.640 Well, they may say that the suggestion that the Ullery 0:06:10.720 --> 0:06:13.520 statement from the Heart was more than one page would 0:06:13.560 --> 0:06:17.039 be a piece of disinformation, when of course it wasn't 0:06:17.080 --> 0:06:20.400 because it was certainly more than one page, and they 0:06:20.880 --> 0:06:23.680 objected to that fact being shared. And you're so right. 0:06:23.800 --> 0:06:29.400 What's often called disinformation misinformation are just inconvenient facts that 0:06:29.520 --> 0:06:32.440 left don't want to the public to know about. And 0:06:32.480 --> 0:06:36.160 I think really throughout that debate, Dan, the most impactful 0:06:36.360 --> 0:06:40.520 arguments were the arguments from the S camp. When you 0:06:40.640 --> 0:06:44.880 actually broke down the positions these people had what they've 0:06:45.120 --> 0:06:48.119 argued for in the past. When you quoted them word 0:06:48.160 --> 0:06:51.800 for word, which I often did in columns I wrote 0:06:51.880 --> 0:06:56.040 or on this program, that is what really brought the 0:06:56.080 --> 0:06:59.520 message home to Australians that this is something that we 0:06:59.640 --> 0:07:02.280 do not want in our constitution. We do not want 0:07:02.279 --> 0:07:07.880 to have racial division, racial privilege enshrined into our founding document. 0:07:10.840 --> 0:07:13.120 Well, that's right, And if there was misinformation, it was 0:07:13.160 --> 0:07:15.600 by the Yes campaign. I mean remember the Prime Minister 0:07:15.680 --> 0:07:17.960 himself said, oh, this is just a modest proposal. 0:07:18.280 --> 0:07:20.760 It's a modest request. No, it wasn't. 0:07:21.120 --> 0:07:24.720 It was fundamentally changing the entire edifice of our parliamentary 0:07:24.720 --> 0:07:30.440 democracy by permanently enshrining racial division in our nation's founding documented. 0:07:30.520 --> 0:07:33.600 So it's just a tiny little request. It was never 0:07:33.640 --> 0:07:37.160 a grassroots movement. It was a movement designed by and 0:07:37.280 --> 0:07:42.000 for the elite activist class. And that's why Australians voted 0:07:42.000 --> 0:07:44.200 for it. They're not silly. They understood that this was 0:07:44.240 --> 0:07:46.920 not going to create one job, stop one crime from 0:07:46.920 --> 0:07:52.360 being committed, or fix one single problem out in the bush. 0:07:52.520 --> 0:07:55.200 Now, let's have a little trip down memory lane and 0:07:55.280 --> 0:07:58.000 see how the likes of Warren Mundine and Just Enterprise 0:07:58.160 --> 0:08:00.520 were treated by segments of the media. 0:08:00.960 --> 0:08:03.720 We're going to sit here and cop laws from. 0:08:03.560 --> 0:08:06.880 Well, we're not going to sit here. You abusing before 0:08:07.400 --> 0:08:10.320 a National treasure like Marcia Lanton who never said that 0:08:10.400 --> 0:08:13.280 Australians were racist and her. 0:08:13.120 --> 0:08:14.680 Words were twisted. I'm going to stop you. 0:08:14.720 --> 0:08:15.160 Their warrant. 0:08:15.280 --> 0:08:17.200 People make the decisions. 0:08:17.680 --> 0:08:20.680 I think, well, we've just seen who Warren Mundane is. 0:08:21.440 --> 0:08:21.880 That's right. 0:08:23.200 --> 0:08:24.720 Do you have any thing further. 0:08:24.480 --> 0:08:27.280 To add I didn't say that Australians are racist. 0:08:27.720 --> 0:08:31.680 National Treasure Aron, Here is a video that Warren Mundane 0:08:31.720 --> 0:08:33.920 was referring to, and yes it does appear to be 0:08:34.360 --> 0:08:37.480 to show that National Treasure Marsha Langdon did actually say 0:08:37.600 --> 0:08:41.120 that the No campaign was racist while speaking at a 0:08:41.320 --> 0:08:43.120 Regional West Australian forum. 0:08:43.440 --> 0:08:46.400 Every time the No case raises one of their arguments, 0:08:46.440 --> 0:08:49.480 if you start pulling it apart, you get down to 0:08:49.679 --> 0:08:52.480 base racism. I'm sorry to say it, but that's where 0:08:52.520 --> 0:08:57.559 it lands. Or just sheer stupidity. 0:08:58.000 --> 0:09:01.959 And remember these hideous remarks that Noel Pearson made about 0:09:02.000 --> 0:09:06.599 just Center namber Jinpurprice on ABC Radio during a fifteen 0:09:06.679 --> 0:09:10.520 minute winch fest that the ABC allowed to go unchallenged. 0:09:10.800 --> 0:09:14.480 She's caught in a vortex. That reminds me of Pauline 0:09:14.520 --> 0:09:18.960 Hanson twenty six years ago, because paul and Hansen got 0:09:19.040 --> 0:09:24.120 caught in a vortex, and it's a celebrity vortex, a 0:09:24.240 --> 0:09:28.080 celebrity bortex. It's very compelling, that gets her out in 0:09:28.120 --> 0:09:31.000 front of people and that gets a lot of cheers, 0:09:31.360 --> 0:09:36.400 but it's also a redneck celebrity vortex. And their strategy 0:09:36.559 --> 0:09:40.480 was to find a blackfellow to punch down on other blackfellows. 0:09:41.000 --> 0:09:45.719 Dan, there was so much ugliness, so much division. Has 0:09:45.760 --> 0:09:47.280 the country healed from that yet? 0:09:48.320 --> 0:09:50.480 Yeah, we're still bitterly divided, reader. 0:09:51.000 --> 0:09:54.160 The Prime Minister has comprehensively failed to unite us after 0:09:54.160 --> 0:09:58.080 the Voice defeat. We've got the activist class that keep 0:09:58.120 --> 0:10:01.920 on trying to divide us. They understand why Australians voted no. 0:10:02.520 --> 0:10:05.000 My concern, though, reader, is that we won the war, 0:10:05.440 --> 0:10:07.840 but we are at risk of losing the peace because, 0:10:08.160 --> 0:10:11.680 as you know, these activists don't stop just because Australians 0:10:11.720 --> 0:10:16.000 democratically voted no. We've still got treaty processes underway where 0:10:16.040 --> 0:10:18.120 I am in South Australia. They've got a state based 0:10:18.160 --> 0:10:20.719 voice to Parliament even though two thirds of South Australians 0:10:20.800 --> 0:10:23.080 voted no. So at the end of the day, we 0:10:23.120 --> 0:10:26.360 need to make sure that racial division of any kind 0:10:26.880 --> 0:10:29.720 is refuted because it has no place in our country. 0:10:32.160 --> 0:10:36.200 Now let's move on to the state premiers being accused 0:10:36.200 --> 0:10:39.240 of being disrespectful after a number of them, including the 0:10:39.320 --> 0:10:43.040 Victorian and New South Wales premiers, a declined and invitation 0:10:43.320 --> 0:10:45.920 to meet with our Head of State, King Charles the 0:10:45.960 --> 0:10:49.040 Third when he arrives in Australia this week, and no 0:10:49.200 --> 0:10:52.760 state premier will attend a special reception in Canberra later 0:10:52.800 --> 0:10:54.520 in the week which is said to be attended by 0:10:54.559 --> 0:10:58.720 a number of high profile political and community leaders. Premiere 0:10:58.720 --> 0:11:03.640 just Into Alan from Victoria has declined to attend. Instead, 0:11:03.679 --> 0:11:07.640 she's sending a junior labor MP, Nick staykhosts I've never 0:11:07.640 --> 0:11:10.840 ever heard of him in her place. New South Wales 0:11:10.920 --> 0:11:13.840 Premier Chris Mins. He says he's got a cabinet meeting 0:11:14.000 --> 0:11:17.560 so he won't be able to be there. Queensland Premier 0:11:17.600 --> 0:11:22.640 Steven Miles has got an election campaign, has mainium premieres overseas, 0:11:23.280 --> 0:11:27.959 and the South Australian premier has also got a cabinet meeting, 0:11:28.840 --> 0:11:33.000 and Roger Cook from WA has other commitments. Stands so 0:11:33.840 --> 0:11:36.800 not exactly the red carpet treatment for our head of 0:11:36.920 --> 0:11:40.160 state there. Do you think that's fair enough? Do you 0:11:40.160 --> 0:11:44.480 think this is just a deliberate snubbing, or they're too 0:11:44.520 --> 0:11:49.200 busy with other things, or is it actually a principal position. 0:11:49.280 --> 0:11:54.000 If these premiers are Republicans, should they be sticking to 0:11:54.080 --> 0:11:56.000 their guns and saying we're not going to meet with 0:11:56.040 --> 0:12:01.920 the king because we don't even believe in that system. 0:12:02.480 --> 0:12:05.560 I think it's probably deliberate, to be honest, And even 0:12:05.600 --> 0:12:09.040 if they are Republicans, they should still respect the institutions 0:12:09.040 --> 0:12:13.440 of our constitutional democracy which have afforded them the opportunity 0:12:13.480 --> 0:12:15.000 to be in the positions that they are, and they 0:12:15.000 --> 0:12:17.960 should be more respectful to the king, because it's not 0:12:18.000 --> 0:12:20.000 just about the individual who happens to be the king 0:12:20.040 --> 0:12:22.800 at the time, as I say, it's about the institutions 0:12:23.120 --> 0:12:26.760 which flow from that. And we have an incredibly stable democracy, 0:12:26.800 --> 0:12:31.000 a well functioning democracy because in part the monarchy sits 0:12:31.040 --> 0:12:31.400 over that. 0:12:31.520 --> 0:12:33.400 So you know, this is really sort. 0:12:33.240 --> 0:12:36.880 Of university student activism level stuff that I think most 0:12:36.920 --> 0:12:39.400 Australians look at and they think it's pretty petty, to 0:12:39.440 --> 0:12:41.199 be honest, no matter what side you're on, it just 0:12:41.240 --> 0:12:43.120 looks petty. 0:12:44.400 --> 0:12:47.040 Well, he is still the head of state. So even 0:12:47.080 --> 0:12:49.400 if you're a Republican, I guess the argument would be 0:12:50.360 --> 0:12:52.920 until we are a republic, or if we are ever 0:12:52.960 --> 0:12:55.640 become a republic, this is the system that you've elected 0:12:55.640 --> 0:12:58.839 to participate in, and you've got to respect the head 0:12:58.880 --> 0:13:02.200 of state. Dan Wild, thank you for your time this evening. Now, 0:13:02.480 --> 0:13:07.280 education and particularly school choice are big election issues in 0:13:07.320 --> 0:13:10.839 the US. Doesn't receive the coverage it deserves, but it 0:13:10.960 --> 0:13:14.360 is certainly an issue tens of millions of Americans care 0:13:14.920 --> 0:13:17.839 passionately about. On the one side, you have the left, 0:13:17.880 --> 0:13:21.560 the bureaucracy, the unions led by this woman. 0:13:21.880 --> 0:13:26.960 Whether it's wages or a dignified retirement, or education opportunity 0:13:27.240 --> 0:13:31.920 or college without crushing death, or family leave or healthcare 0:13:32.040 --> 0:13:37.560 or housing, any of the things are important every single day. 0:13:38.000 --> 0:13:39.719 We need to fake to. 0:13:39.800 --> 0:13:43.040 Get Kamala Harris and ten Wall selected. 0:13:43.440 --> 0:13:49.679 Are you ready are you ready, Oh dear, that's Randy Winkgarden, 0:13:49.760 --> 0:13:53.640 the president of the American Federation of Teachers. And on 0:13:53.679 --> 0:13:56.480 the other side you have my next guest, who has 0:13:56.559 --> 0:13:59.960 been one of the most effective advocates for school ches, 0:14:00.400 --> 0:14:05.840 Corey DeAngelis. Thanks for your time. Randy there has targeted 0:14:05.880 --> 0:14:09.720 you personally in her speeches. Tell me why you think 0:14:09.800 --> 0:14:12.760 school choice is such an important issue. 0:14:13.960 --> 0:14:16.880 Well, look Brandy's video. 0:14:16.960 --> 0:14:20.040 There is basically free advertising for the school choice movement. 0:14:20.040 --> 0:14:21.360 Every time she opens her mouth. 0:14:21.360 --> 0:14:24.200 That should be counted as an inkind contribution to the 0:14:24.240 --> 0:14:27.760 Republican Party because she's fighting the trapped kids in her 0:14:27.760 --> 0:14:32.560 failing government run, unionized, monopolistic schools. And do you want 0:14:32.600 --> 0:14:35.480 this unhinged lunatic educating your kids. 0:14:35.920 --> 0:14:37.600 This is why we should have school choice. 0:14:37.640 --> 0:14:40.280 Families should be able to choose the school that works 0:14:40.320 --> 0:14:43.640 best for them, that has the best math, reading and 0:14:43.680 --> 0:14:47.800 writing outcomes, and also that in a way that aligns 0:14:47.800 --> 0:14:51.120 with your values. You want a curriculum that is not 0:14:51.360 --> 0:14:54.360 far left socialism. You want the schools to focus on 0:14:54.400 --> 0:14:57.560 the basics on education, not on indoctrination. 0:15:00.080 --> 0:15:04.000 Well, tell me about school choice. It essentially means that 0:15:04.440 --> 0:15:07.920 the parents have the power. The funding is attached to 0:15:08.000 --> 0:15:11.240 the child, so they could put their child in a 0:15:11.280 --> 0:15:14.880 school that may not necessarily be the one they're zoned to, 0:15:15.480 --> 0:15:18.720 but it's, like you said, one that matches their values, 0:15:18.840 --> 0:15:21.920 or has better academic results, a better sports program, whatever 0:15:21.960 --> 0:15:25.640 they're looking for. Where do the Trump and Harris camps 0:15:26.040 --> 0:15:29.480 land on this issue? Is this something that Kamala Harris 0:15:30.000 --> 0:15:31.720 may be willing to compromise on. 0:15:34.000 --> 0:15:36.720 Kamala Harris is a communist who thinks your kids belong 0:15:36.840 --> 0:15:39.800 to the government, whereas Donald Trump understands that parents are 0:15:39.840 --> 0:15:42.680 the primary decision makers for their own kids. 0:15:42.720 --> 0:15:44.080 He believes in school choice. 0:15:44.080 --> 0:15:49.040 He's called for full throated universal school choice. He's on 0:15:49.120 --> 0:15:51.440 the side of parents. Kamala Harris is an enemy of 0:15:51.480 --> 0:15:56.200 parental rights and education. She could have chosen Josh Shapiro. 0:15:56.320 --> 0:15:59.560 He's the governor of Pennsylvania, a must win swing state 0:15:59.600 --> 0:16:03.400 in the US that Democrats need to win in November. 0:16:03.680 --> 0:16:04.760 She didn't choose him. 0:16:04.600 --> 0:16:08.920 Because he supported school choice. She chose Tim Walls, the tyrant, 0:16:09.320 --> 0:16:13.280 who was a former member of Randy Winegartens and American 0:16:13.320 --> 0:16:16.960 Federation of Teachers, and the Democrat Party in the US 0:16:17.040 --> 0:16:20.440 is a wholly owned subsidiary, the teachers Union. So Kamala 0:16:20.480 --> 0:16:23.640 Harris is going to do the bidding of the teachers unions, 0:16:24.600 --> 0:16:27.560 and that means trapping kids in their failing unionized in 0:16:27.680 --> 0:16:32.000 doctrination centers, whereas Donald Trump, he knows families are in 0:16:32.040 --> 0:16:34.400 the best position to make the best decisions for their 0:16:34.440 --> 0:16:35.360 own kids' education. 0:16:37.840 --> 0:16:41.280 And Randy Winegarden, I've got to say, she really did 0:16:41.320 --> 0:16:46.520 disgrace herself during the COVID era her desperation to keep 0:16:46.640 --> 0:16:49.880 schools closed for as long as possible, despite the fact 0:16:49.880 --> 0:16:53.240 that schools were open in much of the world, even 0:16:53.280 --> 0:16:59.440 places where there were lockdowns, and masking the smallest of kids, 0:16:59.480 --> 0:17:02.760 all sorts of measures that were just crazy, but the 0:17:03.200 --> 0:17:07.320 unions backed them strongly. Now, Trump has said that he 0:17:07.840 --> 0:17:12.280 wants federal education dollars to follow the student Tell me 0:17:12.359 --> 0:17:14.560 what that would mean for parents. 0:17:16.160 --> 0:17:18.399 Yeah, in the US, we have the US Department of 0:17:18.480 --> 0:17:21.560 Education at the federal level provides about eight percent of funding. 0:17:21.960 --> 0:17:24.760 It shouldn't exist at all. I mean, it was great 0:17:24.840 --> 0:17:27.560 in nineteen seventy nine. Is a payoff from Jimmy Carter 0:17:27.640 --> 0:17:31.320 to the Teachers Union, the National Education Association, and in 0:17:31.359 --> 0:17:34.840 our constitution, the word education does not exist. So the 0:17:35.119 --> 0:17:39.480 entire department is a violation of our tenth Amendment. 0:17:39.520 --> 0:17:40.800 It should be up to the states. 0:17:40.800 --> 0:17:44.400 Each of our states have state level departments of education. 0:17:44.520 --> 0:17:45.520 That's all you really. 0:17:45.320 --> 0:17:49.119 Need, and we also have local school boards as well. 0:17:49.560 --> 0:17:53.639 But Donald Trump fighting for school choice, you can also 0:17:53.800 --> 0:17:57.600 abolish the department. There's a bill while also passing a 0:17:57.640 --> 0:18:00.600 bill in Congress right now called the Educational Choice for 0:18:00.720 --> 0:18:04.840 Children Act. It's a tax credit where people can get 0:18:04.960 --> 0:18:08.200 their federal tax dollars back to be used for KATE 0:18:08.240 --> 0:18:11.720 to twelve education expenses. So it's not actually, you know, 0:18:11.920 --> 0:18:15.760 federal public money following the student. It's people keep getting 0:18:15.800 --> 0:18:18.480 to keep more of their hard earned tax dollars and 0:18:18.640 --> 0:18:19.119 using that for. 0:18:19.200 --> 0:18:20.760 KATE the twelve education expenses. 0:18:20.800 --> 0:18:23.320 And you can also abolish the Department of Education at 0:18:23.359 --> 0:18:24.040 the same time. 0:18:24.960 --> 0:18:27.000 But we also have at the state level. 0:18:27.320 --> 0:18:30.320 There have been twelve states in the past three years 0:18:30.320 --> 0:18:33.320 that have passed universal school choice, having state. 0:18:33.119 --> 0:18:34.359 Dollars follow the child. 0:18:34.880 --> 0:18:37.680 And this is why Randy Weingarten's freaking out on stage 0:18:37.800 --> 0:18:40.280 just because we're winning so much. I'm almost getting tired 0:18:40.320 --> 0:18:44.000 of winning Rita. We've had so much momentum in the 0:18:44.040 --> 0:18:46.600 past three years more than we've had in the preceding 0:18:46.760 --> 0:18:50.160 three decades. Because they fought to keep the schools closed. 0:18:50.440 --> 0:18:53.240 They upset parents who got to see what was happening 0:18:53.240 --> 0:18:55.240 in the classroom and vote. 0:18:55.359 --> 0:18:56.480 Bacham said it best. 0:18:56.520 --> 0:18:59.159 We cannot continue to send our children to Caesar for 0:18:59.200 --> 0:19:03.480 their education and be surprised when they come home. As Romans, 0:19:03.920 --> 0:19:05.320 parents aren't surprised anymore. 0:19:05.359 --> 0:19:07.960 They've woken up. They're never going back to sleep. 0:19:08.000 --> 0:19:10.720 And that could get Donald Trump into the White House 0:19:11.000 --> 0:19:13.440 in November because he's on the side of parents. 0:19:15.720 --> 0:19:17.920 It is, like I said at the start, a huge 0:19:18.000 --> 0:19:21.920 issue for so many voters. Tell me about how much 0:19:21.960 --> 0:19:26.480 more is being spent on education and whether that's increased 0:19:27.000 --> 0:19:32.280 the academic results of the average student, because the spending 0:19:32.359 --> 0:19:36.000 seems to have exploded. You shared some data showing that 0:19:36.480 --> 0:19:40.800 around twenty thousand dollars is spent per student per year. 0:19:40.880 --> 0:19:43.359 That's one hundred and sixty percent more than one hundred 0:19:43.400 --> 0:19:47.000 and sixty percent high in real terms inflation adjusted to 0:19:47.520 --> 0:19:51.840 what was being spent in nineteen seventy. But the results 0:19:52.000 --> 0:19:55.560 are dropping. Where is that money going? Is it all 0:19:55.560 --> 0:19:58.119 going to the bureaucracy Like that graph which I. 0:19:58.200 --> 0:20:02.840 Saw, Yeah, exactly. The government school system has become. 0:20:02.560 --> 0:20:05.840 More of a jobs program for administrators and adults as 0:20:05.840 --> 0:20:09.280 opposed to an education initiative for kids. Since two thousand, 0:20:09.640 --> 0:20:12.560 enrollment for students that only went up by about five percent, 0:20:13.000 --> 0:20:18.000 Administrative staffing increase by about ninety five percent, about fourteen 0:20:18.119 --> 0:20:21.960 times the amount of student increase in places like Chicago, 0:20:22.040 --> 0:20:22.720 where they fought to. 0:20:22.760 --> 0:20:24.359 Keep the schools closed for two years. 0:20:24.359 --> 0:20:29.560 Here in Chicago, they've increased their staffing by twenty percent 0:20:29.680 --> 0:20:34.360 since twenty nineteen, but their student enrollment has decreased by 0:20:34.480 --> 0:20:38.040 ten percent. And what other industry do you lose your 0:20:38.080 --> 0:20:40.600 customers to the tune of about ten percent and then 0:20:40.640 --> 0:20:44.000 you go on a hiring spree. That's because it's a monopoly, 0:20:44.119 --> 0:20:47.239 has no incentive to spend money wisely. But guess what 0:20:47.320 --> 0:20:49.720 when you have school choice, when people can vote with 0:20:49.800 --> 0:20:53.480 their feet take their money elsewhere, well, the providers of 0:20:53.520 --> 0:20:57.040 the service, the district schools start to say, hey, maybe 0:20:57.040 --> 0:20:59.560 we should spend our money wisely, maybe we should listen 0:20:59.600 --> 0:21:02.000 to the pay parents. And then that is a rising 0:21:02.080 --> 0:21:06.000 tide that lifts all boats. Competition improves the outcomes in 0:21:06.040 --> 0:21:09.760 our government schools when parents can take their money elsewhere. 0:21:09.800 --> 0:21:11.119 So this is a win win solution. 0:21:13.640 --> 0:21:16.040 Corey Deangelas, thank you so much for your time this evening. 0:21:17.440 --> 0:21:21.800 Thank you still to come your favorite segment, Lefti's Losing It, 0:21:22.040 --> 0:21:25.560 Plus the latest from the US with Alex Stein, including 0:21:25.560 --> 0:21:38.440 a Donald Trump is appealing to jen Z voters. Welcome back. 0:21:38.520 --> 0:21:41.760 Now it's time for lefties losing it And let's start 0:21:41.840 --> 0:21:45.840 with the many accents of chameleon Kamala. She can go 0:21:45.960 --> 0:21:47.800 from Ivy League to the ghetto. 0:21:48.200 --> 0:21:52.679 So friends, sixty four days, let's just get through the 0:21:52.720 --> 0:21:53.919 next sixty four days. 0:21:55.119 --> 0:21:58.960 She's even pulled out a little Latino heat in recent weeks. 0:21:59.000 --> 0:22:01.560 But I believe this this may be the first time 0:22:01.640 --> 0:22:03.800 she's tried a Jamaican accent. 0:22:04.160 --> 0:22:10.040 Have you no empathy? Man, You're not for the suffering 0:22:10.160 --> 0:22:14.800 of other people? Have you no sense of purpose? 0:22:15.720 --> 0:22:20.880 She's so authentic, so likable and confident. Of course I jest. Now, 0:22:20.920 --> 0:22:23.960 Kamala has a man problem. And it's not just Doug 0:22:24.119 --> 0:22:27.240 knock him out, m Hoff. No, He's not the only 0:22:27.280 --> 0:22:30.640 one causing her headaches. But the fact that so many 0:22:30.760 --> 0:22:34.639 American men, including black men, do not want to vote 0:22:34.640 --> 0:22:37.879 for her. Now, the reasons are numerous. They're real and 0:22:38.080 --> 0:22:42.160 valid reasons, but of course the simplistic take is that 0:22:42.200 --> 0:22:47.120 these men must be sexist. Here is Barack Obama lecturing 0:22:47.200 --> 0:22:50.159 the Brothers as he calls them on why they must 0:22:50.280 --> 0:22:51.480 back Kamala. 0:22:51.800 --> 0:22:55.399 You did not yet see the same kind sort of 0:22:55.640 --> 0:22:57.600 energy and turn. 0:22:57.440 --> 0:23:01.040 Out in all words of. 0:23:00.840 --> 0:23:02.560 Our neighborhood's and communities isms. 0:23:03.600 --> 0:23:04.000 I was run. 0:23:04.840 --> 0:23:05.119 Now. 0:23:07.920 --> 0:23:10.800 I also want to say that that seems to be 0:23:10.920 --> 0:23:13.520 more pronounced with the brothers. 0:23:14.000 --> 0:23:16.600 He then went on to lecture them about why they 0:23:16.720 --> 0:23:20.400 must pick Kamala and why any reluctance must be due 0:23:20.480 --> 0:23:24.200 to what sexist, misogynist monsters they are. 0:23:24.720 --> 0:23:27.680 You just aren't feeling the idea of having a woman 0:23:27.680 --> 0:23:32.160
