WEBVTT - The Late Debate | 25 June 0:00:00.400 --> 0:00:04.960 Late wait General, welcome to the lait To base. 0:00:07.800 --> 0:00:09.240 Well, good evening and thanks for joining us. 0:00:09.280 --> 0:00:12.360 I'm James Macpherson with freyer Leitch and Caleb Bond coming 0:00:12.400 --> 0:00:15.880 up tonight. A truck driver left dangling over a massive 0:00:15.960 --> 0:00:19.560 cliff after a bridge collapse. Will show you the incredible 0:00:19.680 --> 0:00:22.560 footage plus the offer for help. And when we get 0:00:22.600 --> 0:00:24.759 to the papers, an amazing story on the front page 0:00:24.760 --> 0:00:29.160 of Tomorrow's Australian. A street sweeper wins in court after 0:00:29.240 --> 0:00:33.120 being sacked for objecting to Welcome to country, and Labour 0:00:33.280 --> 0:00:37.320 MPs skip Parliament in Queensland to travel the state criticizing 0:00:37.400 --> 0:00:40.560 the budget. All of that when we get to tomorrow's headlines. 0:00:41.000 --> 0:00:43.640 But first, the ceasefire in the Middle East appears to 0:00:43.680 --> 0:00:46.680 be holding, and in a sign of confidence, Donald Trump 0:00:46.760 --> 0:00:49.680 has ordered the US embassy in Jerusalem to reopen, as 0:00:49.680 --> 0:00:52.440 well as advising consular staff and their families that they 0:00:52.440 --> 0:00:56.360 can go about business as per normal. Trump himself is 0:00:56.360 --> 0:00:59.520 in Europe for the NATO summit, where he told reporters 0:00:59.520 --> 0:01:02.640 his attack on Tehran to end the war was the 0:01:02.680 --> 0:01:06.040 modern day equivalent of the attack on Hiroshima to end 0:01:06.040 --> 0:01:09.920 the conflict with the Japanese I don't want to use. 0:01:09.840 --> 0:01:13.040 An example of Hiroshima. I don't want to use an 0:01:13.080 --> 0:01:17.119 example of Nagasaki. But that was essentially the same thing 0:01:17.280 --> 0:01:19.600 that ended that war. This ended that with the war. 0:01:20.080 --> 0:01:21.920 If we didn't take that out, they would have been 0:01:21.959 --> 0:01:23.200 they'd be fighting right now. 0:01:23.959 --> 0:01:27.520 But it wasn't all good news for Trump, and US 0:01:27.560 --> 0:01:32.160 intelligence report linked to CNN claims that the US attack 0:01:32.280 --> 0:01:35.959 didn't do that much damage to Iran's nuclear capabilities, at worst, 0:01:36.440 --> 0:01:37.600 setting them back just a. 0:01:37.520 --> 0:01:38.360 Couple of months. 0:01:38.920 --> 0:01:43.120 So having attacked Iran, Trump then went nuclear on the 0:01:43.200 --> 0:01:43.840 US media. 0:01:48.400 --> 0:01:52.440 Yeah, some great reporters, but you have scum. CNN is scum, 0:01:53.200 --> 0:01:57.120 MSDS is scum. The New York Times is scum. They're 0:01:57.160 --> 0:02:00.880 bad people, they're sick, and what they've done is trying 0:02:00.920 --> 0:02:04.040 to make this unbelievable victory into something worse. 0:02:05.560 --> 0:02:08.960 So now Trump is an argument Caleb with, Well, it's 0:02:09.000 --> 0:02:12.440 a leaked report. It's not a direct report, it's a leak, 0:02:12.600 --> 0:02:16.880 So CNNA trusting the leaker and his version of what 0:02:16.960 --> 0:02:18.040 this report says. 0:02:18.280 --> 0:02:19.359 It's pretty important to. 0:02:19.320 --> 0:02:22.840 Trump to have seen to have won this victory and 0:02:22.880 --> 0:02:26.560 to have obliterated Around's nuclear capabilities. But he either has 0:02:26.680 --> 0:02:28.760 or he hasn't, and to be honest, it's going to 0:02:28.760 --> 0:02:32.080 be some time before intelligence on the ground can confirm 0:02:32.480 --> 0:02:34.040 exactly what damage is being done. 0:02:34.200 --> 0:02:37.440 That's correct. And I was certainly skeptical of the claims, 0:02:37.600 --> 0:02:40.480 you know, basically straight away on the weekend that they 0:02:40.520 --> 0:02:43.919 had destroyed their nuclear capabilities, because how do you know that? 0:02:44.000 --> 0:02:48.440 I mean, they sent bombs the buster I keep missing 0:02:48.520 --> 0:02:52.880 this up busker busting, bunker busting bombs that are meant 0:02:52.880 --> 0:02:55.600 to be destroying things seventy meters underground, and no one 0:02:55.639 --> 0:02:58.160 has yet been seventy meters underground to actually have a 0:02:58.160 --> 0:03:00.440 look to see what it may or may not done. 0:03:00.480 --> 0:03:02.720 We can certainly see what it's done from the surface, 0:03:03.000 --> 0:03:05.720 which would appear to be that it's blocked entry points 0:03:05.760 --> 0:03:10.920 to these stations and may will have destroyed stuff within it, 0:03:11.000 --> 0:03:14.680 but we don't know exactly how much enriched uranium that 0:03:14.720 --> 0:03:18.000 they may will have already moved out before they were struck. 0:03:18.040 --> 0:03:21.200 We don't know exactly how much damage has been done within. 0:03:21.440 --> 0:03:23.160 So I did think it was a bit rich for 0:03:23.200 --> 0:03:26.600 the present, and then Pete Hegseth the following morning to 0:03:26.639 --> 0:03:29.160 straight up say, well, we've destroyed it, because we don't 0:03:29.160 --> 0:03:33.959 actually know that, and the International Atomic Agency didn't actually 0:03:34.160 --> 0:03:38.560 detect any extra radiation coming out of those sites post 0:03:38.640 --> 0:03:41.280 the attack, so it may well be that all of 0:03:41.320 --> 0:03:45.480 that enriched uranium had been taken to another location. So 0:03:45.600 --> 0:03:48.520 you can understand, of course why CNN and other places 0:03:48.520 --> 0:03:50.400 would want to get this out there as far and 0:03:50.440 --> 0:03:52.480 wide as possible in the manner they have, because of 0:03:52.520 --> 0:03:55.160 course they want to discredit Trump by any means necessary. 0:03:55.320 --> 0:03:57.000 But the point still. 0:03:56.760 --> 0:04:01.880 Remains, regardless of whether this obliterate everything they had or not, 0:04:02.440 --> 0:04:05.680 it has put them on the back foot, particularly when 0:04:05.720 --> 0:04:08.880 it comes to this war. It has achieved the aim 0:04:09.240 --> 0:04:12.920 that Trump went out to achieve. So you can't argue 0:04:13.320 --> 0:04:16.120 with the point of what he did and what it's achieved, 0:04:16.200 --> 0:04:19.360 because the reality is, let's be honest, that you're never 0:04:19.480 --> 0:04:23.800 going to stop Iran from enriching uranium if it wants 0:04:23.839 --> 0:04:29.440 to without literally killing every nuclear scientist in Iran, every 0:04:29.520 --> 0:04:32.520 person who would have an issue with the United States 0:04:32.600 --> 0:04:34.960 or Israel in Iran, which is never going to happen. 0:04:35.200 --> 0:04:37.600 So whatever deals you come up with, whatever bombs you 0:04:37.680 --> 0:04:40.200 drop on them, there's always going to be someone trying 0:04:40.240 --> 0:04:43.640 to do something. What they're talking about in CNNA Tetri 0:04:43.800 --> 0:04:45.760 does not discredit the work of. 0:04:45.760 --> 0:04:47.880 Truck Well, and I think one thing we can be 0:04:48.040 --> 0:04:51.560 sure of is that if there is any enriched uranium 0:04:51.640 --> 0:04:55.640 left and any nuclear infrastructure left, Israel will find it 0:04:55.680 --> 0:04:58.120 and Israel will try to destroy it. That's why I 0:04:58.120 --> 0:05:01.320 don't really understand what's so dramatic about this report. It's 0:05:01.360 --> 0:05:06.600 like it's in Israel's existential interest to find the nuclear 0:05:06.680 --> 0:05:09.359 science and the enriched uranium. I think they're going to 0:05:09.400 --> 0:05:13.240 do it. They already had agents at all levels, including 0:05:13.360 --> 0:05:17.040 very high levels of the Iranian regime, feeding back intelligence, 0:05:17.240 --> 0:05:20.200 which is why the initial attack on Iran has been 0:05:20.240 --> 0:05:23.080 so successful. So I'm not too worried about this. The 0:05:23.120 --> 0:05:25.800 other question is who is leaking this? And this seems 0:05:25.800 --> 0:05:29.560 to be a consistent theme in the US's intelligence operations. 0:05:29.760 --> 0:05:32.280 They are supposedly the leaders of the free world. If 0:05:32.279 --> 0:05:36.719 they can't have briefings within the White House's own intelligence 0:05:36.760 --> 0:05:40.719 department stay confidential, I think that is a critical concern 0:05:40.839 --> 0:05:46.760 for the administration. And thirdly, wasn't the US intelligence community 0:05:47.160 --> 0:05:49.839 just a couple of weeks ago saying Iran wasn't even 0:05:49.960 --> 0:05:51.520 trying to create a nuclear bomb? 0:05:51.880 --> 0:05:54.600 Wasn't that the whole thing that was used to say no, 0:05:54.720 --> 0:05:55.880 the US shouldn't. 0:05:55.480 --> 0:05:57.600 Go in and then now what a week later, know 0:05:57.720 --> 0:05:59.880 they were trying to enrich it and actually you haven't 0:06:00.000 --> 0:06:01.160 destroyed all of it. 0:06:01.200 --> 0:06:02.679 This seems like a bit of a flip flop. 0:06:02.720 --> 0:06:04.159 Well, Trump's at least an invoice. 0:06:04.200 --> 0:06:07.200 Steve Whickcoff said whoever made the leak to C and 0:06:07.320 --> 0:06:10.400 M should be charged with trees and his comments. 0:06:12.200 --> 0:06:15.280 You know what we're talking about with this leaked intel report. 0:06:17.400 --> 0:06:20.479 Well it goes without saying that that leaking that type 0:06:20.520 --> 0:06:24.000 of information, whatever the information, whatever side it comes out on, 0:06:24.360 --> 0:06:28.000 is outrageous. It's it's treasonous. So it ought to be 0:06:28.040 --> 0:06:31.400 investigated and whoever did it, whoever is responsible for it, 0:06:31.400 --> 0:06:34.479 should have been He should be held accountable. It could 0:06:34.680 --> 0:06:39.440 hurt lives in the future. Leaking is completely unacceptable. 0:06:40.200 --> 0:06:42.560 Still, Trump's not letting any of this get him down. 0:06:42.640 --> 0:06:46.680 He posted this video on his social media account earlier today. 0:06:47.600 --> 0:07:39.800 Bomb bom bom bom, bomb Land really hard. 0:07:43.080 --> 0:07:45.800 So there you go, Donald Trump making war fun again. 0:07:45.920 --> 0:07:49.480 As the US president. He has walked back his calls 0:07:49.480 --> 0:07:53.320 for regime change or his suggestions that that is possible. 0:07:53.760 --> 0:07:55.200 Speaking at the NATO summit. 0:07:55.320 --> 0:07:58.360 He said that the Iranians are good traders, they're good 0:07:58.440 --> 0:08:00.640 business people, and they've got a lot of oil, so 0:08:00.680 --> 0:08:02.800 they should be fine. They're never going to have nuclear 0:08:03.120 --> 0:08:06.040 but other than that, they should do a great job 0:08:06.200 --> 0:08:10.200 moving forward. So Trump clearly trying to calm things down now. 0:08:10.560 --> 0:08:13.760 Israel responded to his overtures not to retaliate for the 0:08:13.760 --> 0:08:18.040 broken cease fire. There are discussions now, I believe happening 0:08:18.120 --> 0:08:22.640 between America and Iran to try and normalize affairs. So 0:08:23.120 --> 0:08:25.920 hopefully things will move ahead calmly. 0:08:26.200 --> 0:08:29.520 What a shame. Brian Wilson from The Beach Boys signed 0:08:29.520 --> 0:08:31.840 it out a week ago. He wasn't here to see 0:08:31.880 --> 0:08:35.680 that magnificent work done with his song, And of course 0:08:36.080 --> 0:08:38.160 I've just got to show you to you again because 0:08:38.200 --> 0:08:40.960 I just love the clip so much. Another bomb the 0:08:41.000 --> 0:08:42.600 Trump was talking about last night. 0:08:42.679 --> 0:08:47.400 Yes, we basically have two countries that have been fighting 0:08:47.440 --> 0:08:49.480 so long and so hard that. 0:08:49.320 --> 0:08:51.360 They don't know what the fuck they're doing. 0:08:52.400 --> 0:08:54.640 God, that clip just goes so hard. 0:08:54.920 --> 0:08:58.520 I send it to so many people today describing situations 0:08:58.840 --> 0:09:01.600 in my life. You know, the horse trainer in mar 0:09:01.640 --> 0:09:03.839 Ca sends your horse out to do something that you know, 0:09:04.200 --> 0:09:06.600 the horse doesn't want to do or when you go 0:09:06.640 --> 0:09:08.800 to the fish and chip shop and the man doesn't 0:09:08.800 --> 0:09:12.000 offer you chicken salt. These are the situations where you 0:09:12.040 --> 0:09:14.480 may well want to whip out that video and use 0:09:14.520 --> 0:09:17.080 it for other purposes. Of course, Donald Trump, those cripts 0:09:17.120 --> 0:09:19.520 we showed you earlier is at DATO where he is 0:09:19.559 --> 0:09:23.040 at the moment. He's due to speak again later this evening, 0:09:23.120 --> 0:09:25.680 so we'll bring you any of that if and when 0:09:25.960 --> 0:09:29.120 it happens. But of course Trump going to NATO has 0:09:29.320 --> 0:09:33.320 really shaken this meeting up because they were hoping that 0:09:33.360 --> 0:09:35.320 this would be this is a week or two ago, 0:09:35.400 --> 0:09:38.880 that this would be a pretty uneventful NATO meeting, of course, 0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:41.560 on the backdrop of what is still going on in 0:09:41.800 --> 0:09:44.600 Ukraine and Russia. They were hoping this would be pretty 0:09:44.640 --> 0:09:47.320 smooth and they get through it without any troubles and 0:09:47.360 --> 0:09:50.000 Trump wouldn't cause them any grief. Well, of course that's 0:09:50.000 --> 0:09:53.800 the exact opposite of what has happened, given the events 0:09:54.200 --> 0:09:58.920 of the weekend. But I tell you what, it has shuck, shook, 0:09:59.080 --> 0:09:59.720 shuck and people. 0:10:00.000 --> 0:10:00.880 He's shaken people. 0:10:01.480 --> 0:10:05.120 I'm really struggling tonight with some of these words. It 0:10:05.160 --> 0:10:09.120 has shaken people into action, and we really have to 0:10:09.200 --> 0:10:12.520 thank Trump for this, whether it's and I know people 0:10:12.600 --> 0:10:16.280 were critical of the way that he approached Zelenski and 0:10:16.400 --> 0:10:20.000 the Russia is RICHU a while ago, but I think 0:10:20.080 --> 0:10:22.400 that scared the EU and a lot of Europe into 0:10:22.480 --> 0:10:25.840 action when it came to their military investment and spending, 0:10:25.880 --> 0:10:28.160 so ultimately that was a good thing for the rest 0:10:28.200 --> 0:10:31.400 of the world. Trump going there this week, having done 0:10:31.440 --> 0:10:35.360 what he has done in Iran and being praised so 0:10:35.520 --> 0:10:39.760 openly by NATO for doing so, has opened the door 0:10:39.840 --> 0:10:42.240 to other nations saying, well, we need to up our 0:10:42.320 --> 0:10:47.560 game as well, including the UK Siki Stama going out 0:10:47.880 --> 0:10:50.319 to buy a whole bunch of new planes that they 0:10:50.360 --> 0:10:55.079 could fit with the US nuclear weapons, etc. You know, Trump, 0:10:55.320 --> 0:10:57.840 through in peace through strength has been what he's talked 0:10:57.840 --> 0:11:01.760 about for a long time, has demonstrated how that can work, 0:11:02.160 --> 0:11:05.440 and he's finally scared people into realizing if we don't 0:11:05.440 --> 0:11:08.880 do something ourselves, we are at the mercy of the 0:11:09.000 --> 0:11:11.920 United States to do what it wants when it wants. 0:11:12.000 --> 0:11:14.840 And I think part of why Trump went so hard 0:11:14.960 --> 0:11:19.079 last night about the ceasefire is he is demonstrating that sure, 0:11:19.520 --> 0:11:22.199 I'm willing to come to the aid of my allies, 0:11:22.600 --> 0:11:26.400 but don't cross me after I've helped you. This doesn't 0:11:26.440 --> 0:11:29.960 come with no strings attached. I am dictating terms here, 0:11:30.200 --> 0:11:32.800 and other nations such as the UK are starting to realize. 0:11:33.000 --> 0:11:35.240 But by the way, sorry, just quickly, all these people 0:11:35.240 --> 0:11:37.959 that say, oh, Trump's just in Israel's pockets, He's been 0:11:38.040 --> 0:11:41.120 controlled by he pretty clearly demonstrated last night he is 0:11:41.160 --> 0:11:42.640 not in anybody's pocket. 0:11:42.920 --> 0:11:44.800 He will do what he believes is best. 0:11:44.559 --> 0:11:48.160 For the United States, best for peace, whether net Yahoo 0:11:48.200 --> 0:11:50.920 agrees with it or not. So all those people talking 0:11:50.920 --> 0:11:53.640 about all these conspiracy theories, and I think it's proved 0:11:53.679 --> 0:11:54.800 pretty well last night. 0:11:55.040 --> 0:11:55.960 Trump's his own man. 0:11:56.120 --> 0:11:59.080 And ultimately, isn't that how every government should operate. Every 0:11:59.080 --> 0:12:02.400 government should put their own national interests first. The Israelis 0:12:02.400 --> 0:12:05.360 are naturally going to always act in their own interests. Likewise, 0:12:05.400 --> 0:12:08.760 the Americans likewise, if only our Australian government did the 0:12:08.800 --> 0:12:11.360 same thing. But alas they're not. But as well, if 0:12:11.400 --> 0:12:14.760 you remember, in Trump's first term, there were the hysterical 0:12:14.960 --> 0:12:17.840 leftists in the media who was saying Trump is blowing 0:12:17.920 --> 0:12:21.040 up NATO, He's going to walk away from NATO, all 0:12:21.080 --> 0:12:24.320 because he said, if you don't pull your weight, this 0:12:24.440 --> 0:12:25.800 thing is over. 0:12:26.200 --> 0:12:30.280 And it was almost prophetic. If he hadn't shook. 0:12:30.000 --> 0:12:33.440 Them out of their slumber back then, I mean the 0:12:33.600 --> 0:12:36.319 instability that we're in now, it could have. 0:12:36.360 --> 0:12:38.280 Been so much worse. 0:12:38.600 --> 0:12:41.560 And I also think on the other side, the Europeans 0:12:41.960 --> 0:12:45.520 especially are definitely learning the art of dealing with Trump. 0:12:45.800 --> 0:12:49.920 He got a literally a royal welcome in the Netherlands 0:12:50.160 --> 0:12:52.920 by the King and Queen of the Netherlands, and they 0:12:53.040 --> 0:12:57.360 even rolled out the red carpet for him. And that 0:12:57.520 --> 0:13:00.240 is ultimately how you deal with Trump. You have to 0:13:00.280 --> 0:13:04.760 show him respect. It's all about the deal. And another 0:13:04.880 --> 0:13:08.760 person who finally got the message about respect was Zelenski, 0:13:09.160 --> 0:13:12.120 the President of Ukraine, who rocked up in a suit 0:13:12.280 --> 0:13:15.600 this time after being chastised for rucking up to the 0:13:15.600 --> 0:13:18.439 Oval office it is army ensemble. 0:13:18.800 --> 0:13:20.280 This time he wore a suit. 0:13:20.520 --> 0:13:22.760 So I think it's fair to say that all parties 0:13:22.760 --> 0:13:24.960 are learning how to get along with each other. They're 0:13:25.040 --> 0:13:28.960 learning each other's quirks and ultimately how to show respect 0:13:29.360 --> 0:13:32.199 to America, which is what they deserve. 0:13:32.360 --> 0:13:34.559 We should quote the text that was sent to Donald 0:13:34.559 --> 0:13:37.560 Trump when he was on his way to NATO from 0:13:37.600 --> 0:13:40.720 the NATO Secretary General. This was a private text that 0:13:40.800 --> 0:13:43.240 then Trump thought, you know what everybody needs to know 0:13:43.400 --> 0:13:45.800 just how good I am, and so he published it 0:13:45.840 --> 0:13:49.280 for everyone to read. Mister President, dear Donald, congratulations and 0:13:49.320 --> 0:13:51.439 thank you for your decisive action in Iran that was 0:13:51.440 --> 0:13:54.360 truly extraordinary and something no one else dared to do. 0:13:54.480 --> 0:13:57.400 Remember this is from the NATO Secretary General. He goes 0:13:57.440 --> 0:14:00.240 on to say that Trump's made us all safer. You're 0:14:00.240 --> 0:14:02.680 flying into another big success in the Hague this evening. 0:14:02.920 --> 0:14:05.160 It wasn't easy, but you've got them all signed on 0:14:05.200 --> 0:14:07.960 to five percent. Donald, You've driven us to a really 0:14:08.000 --> 0:14:10.840 really important moment for America and Europe and the world. 0:14:11.280 --> 0:14:14.720 You will achieve something no American president in decades could 0:14:14.720 --> 0:14:17.559 get done. Europe is going to pay in a big way, 0:14:17.600 --> 0:14:20.440 as they should, and it will be your win. Safe travels, 0:14:20.480 --> 0:14:23.920 and see you at His Majesty's dinner. Mark Rutty, who 0:14:24.000 --> 0:14:27.800 is the NATO Secretary General. Compare that with the way 0:14:27.920 --> 0:14:31.240 Joe Biden would be treated at these international affairs. 0:14:31.320 --> 0:14:34.280 I remember, not that long ago a meeting and you had. 0:14:35.600 --> 0:14:39.560 The Italian leader, you had the French leader, and you 0:14:39.600 --> 0:14:41.680 had the German leader. And you had Joe Biden, who 0:14:41.720 --> 0:14:43.440 do you remember he sort of wandered off to look 0:14:43.440 --> 0:14:45.360 at some parachuters. 0:14:44.720 --> 0:14:46.360 Over here and literally had to be. 0:14:46.400 --> 0:14:50.120 Guided back to the gathering by other world leaders. Donald 0:14:50.120 --> 0:14:52.960 Trump walks in and talk about big dog energy. The 0:14:53.000 --> 0:14:55.720 whole world knows who the leader of the free world is. 0:14:56.360 --> 0:15:00.760 And Trump has NATO lifting their spend. Sudden, the West 0:15:00.840 --> 0:15:04.600 looks strong. It's amazing what leadership is always the problem 0:15:04.640 --> 0:15:07.920 and it's always the solution. And it's amazing how strong 0:15:07.960 --> 0:15:10.360 the West is starting to look under the leadership of 0:15:10.400 --> 0:15:11.360 a strong Donald Trump. 0:15:11.440 --> 0:15:15.440 Now, well, you remember the film Team America World Police, Yes, 0:15:15.520 --> 0:15:19.960 and the song America you can fill in the blank. Yeah, 0:15:20.200 --> 0:15:22.640 you know, that's sort of what it feels like is 0:15:22.680 --> 0:15:23.080 going on. 0:15:23.160 --> 0:15:23.360 Though. 0:15:23.880 --> 0:15:24.720 How good. 0:15:24.800 --> 0:15:26.520 I who's not looking strong though? 0:15:26.720 --> 0:15:28.680 Just before we move any further, and that of course 0:15:28.800 --> 0:15:29.880 is Australia. 0:15:30.040 --> 0:15:32.280 Check out this group photo I think we can show you. 0:15:32.560 --> 0:15:33.360 They have their. 0:15:33.360 --> 0:15:36.480 Photograph of everyone in attendance at NATO. You can see 0:15:36.520 --> 0:15:39.120 Trump there in the front, just to the left of 0:15:39.400 --> 0:15:43.520 the Queen, and there's Richard Miles, the Australian Deputy Prime 0:15:43.520 --> 0:15:45.760 Minister right on the outer there, and now. 0:15:45.760 --> 0:15:46.840 Of course I. 0:15:46.840 --> 0:15:50.920 Understand photographers probably order where everybody stands, so maybe there's 0:15:50.920 --> 0:15:54.720 nothing in it. But the problem is when Australia's relationship 0:15:54.760 --> 0:15:58.280 with the US is so fractured at the moment, people 0:15:58.400 --> 0:16:01.840 read things into every thing, and the fact we're reading 0:16:01.880 --> 0:16:05.640 something into that is entirely the Albanese government's fault because 0:16:05.640 --> 0:16:06.360 they've created this. 0:16:06.560 --> 0:16:10.320 You look like you're I'm reading into I mean, we're not, 0:16:11.360 --> 0:16:11.520 And the. 0:16:11.480 --> 0:16:14.760 Albaneze government has created a situation where we do read 0:16:14.920 --> 0:16:16.880 things into perhaps stuff that's not there. 0:16:16.920 --> 0:16:18.840 We were never going to be, That's what we've created. 0:16:19.120 --> 0:16:20.600 We were never going to be in the front row. 0:16:20.640 --> 0:16:23.240 We're not a member of NATA. We're there as an observer. 0:16:23.800 --> 0:16:26.680 We weren't going to be standing next to Donald Trump were. 0:16:26.520 --> 0:16:29.480 Well, we certainly shouldn't be right on the outer as 0:16:29.520 --> 0:16:31.480 one of the key allies of the United States in 0:16:31.480 --> 0:16:32.120 the position it. 0:16:32.080 --> 0:16:34.880 Is very indicative of where we stand, not just in 0:16:34.920 --> 0:16:36.600 the eyes of America, but I think in the eyes 0:16:36.640 --> 0:16:39.280 of the world. They look at Australia right now and 0:16:39.360 --> 0:16:41.680 just go like, who are we, what do we do, 0:16:41.760 --> 0:16:44.520 what do we stand for? What value do we bring 0:16:44.600 --> 0:16:48.680 to the free world? No one really knows anymore. But 0:16:48.800 --> 0:16:52.080 I also have a theory that Miles was told by 0:16:52.160 --> 0:16:56.000 Albanesi to avoid Trump at all costs, because imagine how 0:16:56.040 --> 0:16:59.120 embarrassing it would have been for Albanesi if Miles did 0:16:59.200 --> 0:17:01.640 get the meeting with Trump before. 0:17:01.720 --> 0:17:03.440 Almost more embarrassing than that. 0:17:03.560 --> 0:17:05.840 I read tonight that the leader of Papua New Guinea 0:17:05.920 --> 0:17:08.359 is organizing a meeting with Donald Trump. If the leader 0:17:08.400 --> 0:17:11.600 of POG, God bless all our friends in p and G. 0:17:11.720 --> 0:17:13.040 But if the leader of p and G gets a 0:17:13.040 --> 0:17:16.120 meeting with Trump before Alberanizi does, that is. 0:17:16.080 --> 0:17:20.359 Embarrassed and Alba were really upset because the leader of 0:17:20.480 --> 0:17:22.280 Papua New Guinea will be able to talk about how 0:17:22.280 --> 0:17:25.000 he's getting a new rugby league team before the Prime 0:17:25.000 --> 0:17:27.680 Minister has been able to talk about his beloved rabbitos 0:17:27.720 --> 0:17:30.879 to the president. And Trump's up for a Nobel Peace 0:17:30.920 --> 0:17:34.400 Prize now is all. Pakistan's nominated him for the work 0:17:34.440 --> 0:17:37.600 he did working with Pakistan and India over the conflict. 0:17:37.600 --> 0:17:39.760 Of course that's been going on in cash me, so 0:17:39.960 --> 0:17:41.800 you know, it's a hell of a week. 0:17:41.600 --> 0:17:45.040 When he's also been nominated by a Republican politician, as 0:17:45.080 --> 0:17:48.119 you would expect, but Funnily enough, he was nominated a 0:17:48.160 --> 0:17:51.120 third time for a Nobel Peace Prize, but that nomination 0:17:51.200 --> 0:17:54.919 has been withdrawn. He was nominated by a Ukrainian politician 0:17:55.240 --> 0:17:58.399 who said he only nominated Trump some time ago to 0:17:58.480 --> 0:18:01.840 try and egg Trump into creating peace in order to 0:18:01.920 --> 0:18:05.399 get the award, But now dissatisfied with the progress in Ukraine, 0:18:05.440 --> 0:18:07.520 that politician has withdrawn his nomination. 0:18:07.760 --> 0:18:11.240 And also it is worth noting that Pakistan's intention to 0:18:11.280 --> 0:18:15.680 nominate Trump was announced before Trump struck Iran, and now 0:18:15.760 --> 0:18:18.640 Pakistan saying Trump has blood on his hands, they phoned 0:18:18.640 --> 0:18:22.560 Iran expressing their condemnation. So you never know, Pakistan might 0:18:22.600 --> 0:18:26.760 also withdraw the nomination. But this certainly isn't the weirdest one. 0:18:26.800 --> 0:18:29.440 I mean, Obama got a Nobel Peace Prize in two 0:18:29.480 --> 0:18:32.040 thousand and nine before he had even. 0:18:32.000 --> 0:18:34.000 Done anything, and everyone admitted it. 0:18:34.160 --> 0:18:36.560 They said, oh, well, it's just to raise his profile 0:18:36.640 --> 0:18:38.439 and the ideals of democracy. 0:18:38.440 --> 0:18:41.600 They said he'd changed the tone of the discussion. In 0:18:41.720 --> 0:18:43.960 another wids, he literally got a Peace Prize nine months 0:18:43.960 --> 0:18:46.639 into his presidency for the vibe. 0:18:46.760 --> 0:18:49.600 The vibe, I mean Ya sa Arafat, the leader of 0:18:49.720 --> 0:18:54.879 the Palestinian Liberation Organization a terrorist group also got a 0:18:54.920 --> 0:18:58.560 Nobel Peace Prize, So I mean maybe Trump actually would 0:18:58.560 --> 0:19:01.879 be one of the most meritorious candidates given its past 0:19:03.000 --> 0:19:04.040 past recipients. 0:19:04.119 --> 0:19:07.280 Well, you certainly changed the vibe. Speaking of the vibe, 0:19:07.320 --> 0:19:09.800 that's all you will need now to change your gender 0:19:10.280 --> 0:19:13.080 in New South Wales it's the last state, funnily enough, 0:19:13.080 --> 0:19:15.800 where they've done this. This law was passed in October 0:19:15.880 --> 0:19:19.160 last year, but it's coming into effect next Tuesday, where 0:19:19.200 --> 0:19:21.240 in New South Wales you will be able to change 0:19:21.320 --> 0:19:24.040 your gender on your birth certificate without having to have 0:19:24.160 --> 0:19:27.880 had any kind of gender reassignment surgery. As I say, 0:19:28.119 --> 0:19:31.119 every other state has already done this. I'm surprised that 0:19:31.200 --> 0:19:34.160 New South Wales is the last one to bring it in, 0:19:34.240 --> 0:19:37.760 but they are. You'll be able to change your gender 0:19:38.200 --> 0:19:43.200 once a year as many times as so I can be, 0:19:43.240 --> 0:19:46.800 as a resident of New South Wales as of next Tuesday, female, 0:19:47.240 --> 0:19:49.800 and then next year I could elect to be non binary, 0:19:50.080 --> 0:19:52.000 and then the year after that I could elect to 0:19:52.040 --> 0:19:55.520 be not specified, that's one of the options, and then 0:19:55.560 --> 0:19:57.440 I can go back to being a male, and then 0:19:57.480 --> 0:20:00.440 I can be female again. I mean, you know, depending 0:20:00.480 --> 0:20:03.760 on what clubs I want to join or what toilets 0:20:03.760 --> 0:20:05.960 I want to use. I suppose I just go down 0:20:06.000 --> 0:20:09.120 to birth, Deaths and Marriages and say, well, sign me up. 0:20:09.200 --> 0:20:13.280 The Customer Service Minister ghadb in New South Wales was 0:20:13.320 --> 0:20:17.080 in Parliament yesterday saying that this would be next Tuesday 0:20:17.400 --> 0:20:19.000 a very special. 0:20:18.600 --> 0:20:22.360 Day because from next Tuesday it's going to be easier 0:20:22.760 --> 0:20:25.479 for the people of New South Wales for gender diverse 0:20:25.520 --> 0:20:28.560 people to be able to update their birth certificate. And 0:20:28.640 --> 0:20:31.040 up until now, New South Wales has been the only 0:20:31.160 --> 0:20:35.240 jurisdiction where it required a person to undergo surgery to 0:20:35.640 --> 0:20:38.640 be able to change their registered sex. But the amendments 0:20:38.640 --> 0:20:40.760 that have been made to the Birth Test and Marriages 0:20:40.800 --> 0:20:43.960 Registration Act nineteen ninety five, something I share with the 0:20:43.960 --> 0:20:47.480 Attorney General, do away with this requirement and now bring 0:20:47.560 --> 0:20:49.480 us into line with the rest of the country. 0:20:50.359 --> 0:20:52.080 Now, the fact that New South Wales will be the 0:20:52.160 --> 0:20:54.480 last one to enact it does make it kind of 0:20:54.480 --> 0:20:56.720 seem like, oh, well, you're all falling into line. But 0:20:57.240 --> 0:20:59.920 I think it's really important because it will officially meet 0:21:00.040 --> 0:21:05.320 in the death of genuine gender in this country. Because 0:21:05.359 --> 0:21:08.720 the last state where you actually have to at least 0:21:08.800 --> 0:21:10.560 have some surgery. 0:21:10.000 --> 0:21:12.600 To change your gender on your birth certificate. 0:21:12.280 --> 0:21:15.600 Will be gone. You can just go online and say 0:21:15.640 --> 0:21:17.800 well I'm a man, or I'm a woman, or whatever, 0:21:18.119 --> 0:21:21.040 change my birth certificate. I mean, surely your birth certificate 0:21:21.200 --> 0:21:26.560 is a legal record of your birth, nothing more, nothing less. 0:21:26.760 --> 0:21:30.560
