1
00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:04,640
Speaker 1: On Scorning MS Australia.

2
00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:07,320
Speaker 2: This is the Reader Panalty Show.

3
00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:11,920
Speaker 3: Good evening and welcome to the Rita Panekee Show. Coming

4
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:16,079
Speaker 3: up tonight, President Donald Trump calls out Australia once more

5
00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:19,640
Speaker 3: for failing to assist in the war against the Iranian regime.

6
00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:22,960
Speaker 3: The panel will be here to cover the day's top headlines.

7
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 3: The fuel crisis deepens, despite the Energy Minister assuring Australians

8
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:31,480
Speaker 3: all is well. We'll get the facts with Prophecy in Plimer.

9
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:34,880
Speaker 3: Kosher Gator will have the latest from the US, including

10
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:39,839
Speaker 3: the New York mayor implementing radical race based policies, and

11
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:43,640
Speaker 3: later in the program, my second favorite Texan Alex Stein

12
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 3: will be here to discuss everything from Carnie's comeback to

13
00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:52,199
Speaker 3: an NBA player sanctioned for sharing his Christian beliefs and

14
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:56,080
Speaker 3: Left is losing its stars. This Democrat charmer.

15
00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 4: Just shut down there. You listen to me, you fat

16
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 4: I'm getting ready to tell you something does very important

17
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 4: knowledge and no one else is gonna tell you. So

18
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:05,479
Speaker 4: I'm gonna tell you right say. By the way, get

19
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 4: your finger out of yet, quit licking it.

20
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:12,040
Speaker 3: But first, Australian families are set to be sunk further

21
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 3: into debt as energy bills continue to climb, despite Labour's

22
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 3: promises that household bills would not increase. Figures from the

23
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:24,840
Speaker 3: Australian Energy Regulators show Australian households are being plunged into

24
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,199
Speaker 3: energy poverty, with a surge and the number of customers

25
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 3: in arrears on their gas and electricity bills. Those on

26
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 3: hardship programs have seen a twenty three percent jump in arrears,

27
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 3: with many owing thousands in unpaid energy bills and more

28
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:45,080
Speaker 3: than six thousand customers have had their electricity supply disconnected

29
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 3: in the first quarter. Joining me now to discuss this

30
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:52,640
Speaker 3: further is Institute of Public Affairs Research fellow Colleen Harken

31
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 3: and Sky News contributor proumc sween. Colleen, I'll start with you.

32
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 3: I've written about this issue in the Herald Sun today.

33
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 3: We have been failed by successive governments both at state

34
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 3: and federal level. They've allowed green hysteria to trump logic

35
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:10,640
Speaker 3: and sound economic policies.

36
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 5: It's a disgrace really, this ideological pursuit that has led

37
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,640
Speaker 5: to a scenario where people literally can't put food on

38
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 5: the table in a country that is energy rich as

39
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 5: we are is an absolute disgrace. Ordinary Australians are literally

40
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 5: hurting over this and it's not going to change anytime

41
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 5: soon because it's based on our energy policy, which is

42
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 5: all ideologically driven. If you ask IPA, research will show

43
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 5: you that four out of every five Australians just want

44
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:44,079
Speaker 5: affordable and reliable energy. They're not asking for very much

45
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,399
Speaker 5: and we ought to be able to provide it. But

46
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,799
Speaker 5: you know, our government is living in utopian lala land.

47
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:51,440
Speaker 5: They just don't seem to be able to connect the

48
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,520
Speaker 5: dots with this and the consequences of these energy policies

49
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:55,919
Speaker 5: pro I.

50
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:59,800
Speaker 3: Seem to recall the Climate Change and Energy Minister chrisp

51
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,840
Speaker 3: and promising us just I think it was a last

52
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:06,960
Speaker 3: month that households could see savings of up to ten percent.

53
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:09,959
Speaker 3: When are those savings coming well?

54
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 6: In his dreams?

55
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 7: I think Rita, I mean, the bulk is a scam

56
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:20,359
Speaker 7: artist and sadly, you know, fossil fuel has been demonized

57
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 7: so much, but these demons are being exorcized now as

58
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 7: reality has hit. You know, well meaning Australians who you

59
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,959
Speaker 7: know thought that they were doing the right thing by

60
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 7: the environment, have suddenly realized that not being able to

61
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 7: heat their food.

62
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 6: Or their homes.

63
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 7: You know the impact that we're finding that with these

64
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 7: rising energy costs that are impacting on all across the

65
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 7: cost of living.

66
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 6: And we've been sold apart.

67
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 7: This is a scam by Bowen, a scam by this government.

68
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,920
Speaker 7: And we've had to learn a hard lesson and probably

69
00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 7: we all had to go through this hard lesson for

70
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 7: people to understand that fossil fuel is not an enemy.

71
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 6: And unfortunately that's what we've been told.

72
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 8: Now.

73
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 3: US President Donald Trump has taken another shot at Australia

74
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 3: for the lack of help amidst the ongoing conflict with Iran.

75
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:17,679
Speaker 3: Have a listened to what he said.

76
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:19,760
Speaker 9: It's not just NATO.

77
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 8: You know, Welston help us. South Korea didn't help us.

78
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 8: You know, Welston help us. Or Australia didn't help us.

79
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:28,160
Speaker 9: You know, Welston help us.

80
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 10: Japan.

81
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 3: Pro Given our meager defenses in this country, aren't we

82
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:38,039
Speaker 3: reliant on the US? Isn't it a good idea to

83
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 3: not antagonize our biggest and most powerful ally, who we

84
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,880
Speaker 3: are going to have to call on if, for example, China,

85
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 3: if it becomes a little bit too aggressive.

86
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:50,279
Speaker 6: Well, we're sitting Ducks Reta.

87
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 7: And that's the thing that people who have very short

88
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:58,840
Speaker 7: memories don't realize how very saved us in the last war.

89
00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,599
Speaker 6: And we've got Albanezi.

90
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 7: Who didn't have a very great history with Trump or America.

91
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,040
Speaker 7: Then of course we saw what happened when he became

92
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 7: Prime minister, and it was very shaky grounds. And we

93
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 7: all know that we are in trouble here that we know.

94
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 7: Consecutive governments, and I don't just blame this one, have

95
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:26,799
Speaker 7: been really bad when it comes to allocating any defense budget.

96
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:31,480
Speaker 7: It's indefensible now that we need it for our national security.

97
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:36,600
Speaker 7: But we've failed Trump in so many ways, and so

98
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 7: I don't blame him for being put out. But of

99
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:42,720
Speaker 7: course he didn't really also consult his allies when he

100
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 7: started all of this, so I can understand why people fearful,

101
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 7: and particularly as he's becoming a little bit more erratic

102
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:53,600
Speaker 7: in his policy making when it comes to Iran.

103
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,599
Speaker 3: Well, I'm not surprised at you didn't consult with us, sir.

104
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 3: He wanted the element of surprise. I think the thing

105
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,800
Speaker 3: he would want would be someone within the Australian government

106
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 3: leaking we're being planned and if they're if the UK

107
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:12,039
Speaker 3: isn't going to be consulted, Australia certainly isn't going to

108
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:15,839
Speaker 3: be Isn't this just a matter of self interest here, Colleen?

109
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:19,880
Speaker 3: We need the US far more than they'll ever need us,

110
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 3: and it is in our national interest to not antagonize

111
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:26,039
Speaker 3: the leader of the free world.

112
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 5: Look, I mean, our defense budget is two percent of GDP. Like, seriously,

113
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:34,039
Speaker 5: if we weren't understand what could we what could we do?

114
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:35,120
Speaker 5: It would be ridiculous.

115
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,279
Speaker 3: You know. What we'd be doing would be going to

116
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,720
Speaker 3: the biggest weapon we have, which is the telephone for

117
00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 3: the White House. That's going to be the most powerful

118
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,720
Speaker 3: thing we'll be able to do at a time of crisis.

119
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,279
Speaker 5: Well, and we're in this sort of crazy situation where

120
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,159
Speaker 5: at our best we are giving mixed messages.

121
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,159
Speaker 9: You know, is that how you treat an la who

122
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 9: we are?

123
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 5: We've been told on the one hand that we live

124
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 5: in uncertain and danger times and on the other hand

125
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 5: we're sort of dissing our allies and we're not doing

126
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 5: anything about our defense budget. We're sort of again, we're

127
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 5: living in this kind of crazy situation where we think.

128
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 9: No harm will ever come to us, and it's just naive.

129
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 3: And it seems like the Australian government is making its

130
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:22,679
Speaker 3: decisions based on the hysterical media reporting about this conflict,

131
00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:26,080
Speaker 3: because I remember just a few weeks ago Anthony Alberenezi

132
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 3: talking about the evils of the Iranian regime, how necessary

133
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:33,920
Speaker 3: this action was, how Iran could never have nuclear weapons,

134
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 3: how the people deserve to be free, and yet just

135
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 3: a few weeks later that seems to all be forgotten,

136
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:45,520
Speaker 3: and and we're having large segments of the media accepting

137
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 3: propaganda from the Iranian regime about how this war is

138
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 3: going and reporting it sometimes uncritically colle.

139
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 5: Correct, and even sort of the general population I think

140
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 5: is sort of lost focus about what this is all about.

141
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,640
Speaker 5: There's not that sort of strategic understanding about why these

142
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 5: things happen, and it becomes this populous TikTok kind of

143
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 5: movement without actually understanding what the global relationships.

144
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 3: Mean now One nation MP Barnaby Joyce has said that

145
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 3: Australia should be wary of continuing its criticism of the

146
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 3: US president during this conflict. Let's have a listen to

147
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 3: what Barnaby Joyce said to Channel seven earlier.

148
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 11: One thing I do know is I can only make

149
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 11: things worse for Australians if we participate in sort of

150
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,000
Speaker 11: a character reference of the president. We are going to

151
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:35,840
Speaker 11: rely on the United States incredibly if things get worse

152
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:39,319
Speaker 11: and it sounds like they're not getting better, prove the.

153
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 3: Former Deputy PM. They're stating the bleeding obvious. But it

154
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 3: seems to be lost on members of the Albanesi government,

155
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 3: including the Prime Minister well sadly Rita.

156
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 7: Most things seem to be lost when it comes to

157
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:56,440
Speaker 7: common sense on this government.

158
00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 6: An Albanis as you said, you know, the.

159
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:04,360
Speaker 7: First defense mechanism will be the phone to pick them

160
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 7: up and say please help. But why we would be

161
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 7: criticizing the US regime and Trump himself is ridiculous. And

162
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 7: also the world is watching, you know, China, Russia, They're

163
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,559
Speaker 7: all watching how everyone is dealing.

164
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:20,199
Speaker 6: With this crisis.

165
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 7: And we are just a fair weather friend, or we

166
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 7: couldn't even say we're a friend. At the moment, we're

167
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:31,080
Speaker 7: not displaying any support. And it's only people who have

168
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:35,079
Speaker 7: lived through this before in these really dangerous times to

169
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:38,400
Speaker 7: understand that you really need every friend you've got when

170
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 7: you're sitting at the bottom of the globe and you

171
00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 7: have no defenses at all.

172
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 6: You know, you are as I said before a sitting duck.

173
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 3: Now, experts have worn that Australia faces unavoidable fuel rationing

174
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,320
Speaker 3: if the war in your aunt stretches beyond this week.

175
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 3: It follows a rise in global oil prices as US

176
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:01,680
Speaker 3: President Donald Trump's deadline for Iran to reopen the strait

177
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:07,079
Speaker 3: of Hormu's approaches prue. We had reports yesterday suggesting that

178
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:11,200
Speaker 3: Iran was desperate to strike a forty five day cease

179
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 3: fire deal. Can you see rationing happening in this country?

180
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:21,440
Speaker 3: It seems unbelievable. But we've already got an increasing number

181
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 3: of petrol stations that are running out of fuel.

182
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:26,080
Speaker 6: Well, I can see it, Rita.

183
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 7: And the sad thing is that we can't trust this government.

184
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 7: You know, we're getting mixed messages all the time. You know,

185
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 7: don't panic, go on holiday, oh but don't drive your car,

186
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 7: you know, try and stay home and work or you know,

187
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 7: I mean.

188
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 6: Who knows what's going on? Really?

189
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 7: And you couldn't trust a word that came out of

190
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 7: Bowen's mouth. They couldn't organize, you know, well anything basically

191
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,160
Speaker 7: that I can see. They have such a poor history

192
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:55,760
Speaker 7: and when they say that we will have you know,

193
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 7: fuels on the way, we've got it till May.

194
00:10:58,440 --> 00:10:59,959
Speaker 6: Well May's just around the corner.

195
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 7: So I cannot see any effort on their part that

196
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 7: is going to make reality hits, you know, and that

197
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 7: we really have got a crisis here.

198
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 6: They just seemed to be floating.

199
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 7: Lies and living in la la land, pretending it's all

200
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:15,440
Speaker 7: going to go away.

201
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 6: Well it ain't.

202
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 3: Well, it's not just the half truths, the wishful thinking, Colleen,

203
00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,760
Speaker 3: it's the contradictory messages we're getting from this government. It

204
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 3: doesn't exactly fill you with confidence that they know what

205
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,720
Speaker 3: they're doing and they have a firm plan in place

206
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:33,560
Speaker 3: to deal with whatever comes.

207
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:34,320
Speaker 9: Yeah, well that's right.

208
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 5: I mean I are very slow to convene a national

209
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:38,960
Speaker 5: cabinet to talk about the issues.

210
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,680
Speaker 9: They're very slow to do that. And then we had the.

211
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:46,960
Speaker 5: National Address, which was the fourth in over twenty years,

212
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:50,120
Speaker 5: and that was to tell us to not take too

213
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,000
Speaker 5: much fuel and to take the train if we could.

214
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:56,000
Speaker 3: Fantastic, fantastic use of a national untract.

215
00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 5: Right, So they didn't seem to be taking it seriously.

216
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 5: And now it's sort of being too towards this emergency

217
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 5: kind of conversation, but no one's hearing a plan. And

218
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 5: the real issue is that, you know, I might be

219
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:08,840
Speaker 5: able to take the trainers, somebody else might be able

220
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 5: to stay at home for a day or two, but

221
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:13,080
Speaker 5: the farmers are not getting their diesel and they're not

222
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,960
Speaker 5: getting their fertilizer, and that has a long tail to

223
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 5: it in terms of what we will receive in X

224
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 5: amount of months when the crops can't be cut and

225
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,600
Speaker 5: all of that kind of stuff. But there doesn't seem

226
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:24,960
Speaker 5: to be a planing place. If we're going to have rationing,

227
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:27,800
Speaker 5: be honest with us, get it moving and you know,

228
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 5: just be transparent with the Australian people, because that's what

229
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 5: we expect is leadership and honesty.

230
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:35,559
Speaker 3: Well, I'll be speaking to Professor in Plimer shortly about

231
00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,680
Speaker 3: this very issue on some of this contradictory messaging that's

232
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 3: coming out that is not helpful in any way. But

233
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 3: let's move on to the world of academia, your world's Colleen.

234
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,880
Speaker 3: Let's go to controversial writer at mcquarie University, academic Randa

235
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:57,000
Speaker 3: abdelf Fhata. The Australian newspaper reports today on the taxpayer largess.

236
00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:01,319
Speaker 3: She has enjoyed at children's picture books, Look and a

237
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:05,960
Speaker 3: young adult fiction novel were cited as research achievements in

238
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:09,880
Speaker 3: her successful grant application for nearly nine hundred thousand dollars.

239
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 3: We're talking about taxpayer funding here, and public funds were

240
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 3: also used to fly two American academics to Australia to

241
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 3: attend a workshop about the thirty year old play The

242
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:25,839
Speaker 3: Politics of Belly Dancing, at a cost of six one

243
00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:30,199
Speaker 3: hundred dollars prove this sounds like important work. The OS

244
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 3: also reports taxpays were built one hundred and seventy dollars

245
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:40,600
Speaker 3: an hour to transcribe interviews with Islamic activists. Again, how

246
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,200
Speaker 3: do you justify that at a time where we have

247
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:48,959
Speaker 3: people tightening their belt, We've got real financial crisis, increasing debt,

248
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:53,360
Speaker 3: cost of living crisis, and we seem to have just

249
00:13:53,440 --> 00:14:00,199
Speaker 3: this largest, this generosity for segments of academia.

250
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,840
Speaker 7: I think it needs to be renamed to the Research

251
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:07,880
Speaker 7: Wrought Counsel, because when you've got people like this woman

252
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:13,200
Speaker 7: who describes herself as a social activist, why is the

253
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:19,080
Speaker 7: Australian public allowing this council that has a budget of

254
00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:24,160
Speaker 7: one billion dollars a year to support activism, and that's

255
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 7: what she's openly doing and admitting, and this.

256
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 6: Is her quest in life.

257
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 7: She must be thinking we are all fills, which we

258
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:36,040
Speaker 7: are if we continue this. Jason Claire is in charge

259
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:39,920
Speaker 7: of this as the Education Minister. He should stop it immediately.

260
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:43,360
Speaker 7: And when we know what's coming for Australia, we are

261
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 7: going to hit the biggest recession ever and things are

262
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 7: going to get a lot worse than they are now.

263
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:53,280
Speaker 7: The last thing we need is for a billion of

264
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 7: our dollars to be spent on these activists. We need

265
00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:00,760
Speaker 7: to prioritize and this government needs to wake up to

266
00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:06,680
Speaker 7: itself and start saving money and not promoting activism and supporting.

267
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:10,360
Speaker 3: Such rot Well, I don't think you could even blame

268
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 3: this particular academic pre abdul Fatart. She's requesting these grants,

269
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:19,200
Speaker 3: but she doesn't approve them. The people who are approving them,

270
00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 3: who are signing off, I think, are the ones we

271
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:26,280
Speaker 3: need to be critiquing. But Colleen, this is your world academia.

272
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,960
Speaker 3: You're an expert in this area. Is this an isolated

273
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 3: example of hard left ideology being funded by the taxpayer

274
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:36,320
Speaker 3: or is this pretty much the norm?

275
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 5: Unfortunately, it's not isolated at all. Activism is in all

276
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:46,800
Speaker 5: of our institutions, from childcare all the way through schools, universities.

277
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 5: It's a non stop embedded scenario. I mean when you

278
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 5: listen to things like the politics of Bali dancing, I

279
00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 5: mean it must make people's blood boil who are trying

280
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 5: to put food on the table. You know, your first

281
00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,560
Speaker 5: story when you see this contradiction in what's happening in

282
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 5: our society.

283
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 9: But it is not isolated.

284
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:06,760
Speaker 5: Children from kindergarten all the way through every day, all day,

285
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 5: there's this like a dripping tap about this activist agenda,

286
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 5: whether it's decolonizing the curriculum or whether it's you know,

287
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:16,160
Speaker 5: you're a global citizen not an Australian one. There's about

288
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 5: three climate anxiety. There's about three touch points that are

289
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:24,160
Speaker 5: constant in the school day that parents would be shocked

290
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 5: to find out. Actually if they set in a classroom

291
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 5: for a week and saw what their children were being

292
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 5: exposed to, they would be shocked.

293
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,320
Speaker 3: Absolutely. Colleen Hark and pro McSween, thank you so much

294
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 3: for your time tonight.

295
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:33,720
Speaker 9: Thank you.

296
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:38,000
Speaker 3: It seems the fuel crisis is only going to get

297
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 3: worse before it gets better. Let's bring in Professor Ian Plymer,

298
00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 3: executive director at Hancock Prospecting in How worried are you

299
00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:50,120
Speaker 3: about oil prices and shortages leading to rationing.

300
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:55,000
Speaker 10: Well, I've been worried for twenty five years because we

301
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 10: just haven't done the expiration. We've had green law fare.

302
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 10: We are using more petrol and oil and diesel than

303
00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:07,679
Speaker 10: we actually find, so we've been absolutely dependent upon imports.

304
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:11,160
Speaker 10: These come across very very long trade routes, and Blowin

305
00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:14,159
Speaker 10: Freddy could see that there was eventually going to be

306
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 10: a problem and we were going to not have enough fuel.

307
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:21,040
Speaker 10: So we've read what we say and governments of all

308
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:23,680
Speaker 10: colors have not actually thought about the future.

309
00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:28,240
Speaker 3: Well, you're telling the truth here. You've been warning about

310
00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:32,399
Speaker 3: this for so many years, about this very thing about

311
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:36,720
Speaker 3: becoming dependent on overseas supply, and here we are. But

312
00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:40,160
Speaker 3: let's now here from National's leader Matt Canavan, who has

313
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:44,200
Speaker 3: called out the mixed messages coming from the Albanese and government.

314
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:48,359
Speaker 1: If credit what Chris Bowen has said over easter is

315
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 1: right that fuel supplies are good for the next month

316
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 1: or so, why did the prime mister A rest nation

317
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,359
Speaker 1: just doesn't seem to add up here. Peter that the

318
00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 1: Premister thought it is so important to do a national broadcast.

319
00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:04,959
Speaker 1: Things have only been done a handful of times in

320
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:08,880
Speaker 1: our generation. Yet only days later his Energy Minister saying

321
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:11,480
Speaker 1: is everything is fine, there's nothing to see here. So

322
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 1: I just do get this distinct impression the government is

323
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:17,480
Speaker 1: not being upfront with us about exactly what the risks are.

324
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:22,320
Speaker 3: The national address from the PM was utterly pointless. He

325
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 3: said nothing of consequence, spoke to us like we were

326
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 3: primary school age children, with that ridiculous tone that play

327
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:35,920
Speaker 3: school hosts reserve for their audience. What did you make

328
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:39,640
Speaker 3: of the Energy Minister's comments and the contradictions we are

329
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 3: hearing one minute we need a national address, the next minute,

330
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:46,000
Speaker 3: everything is fine, go about your business as normal.

331
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:50,879
Speaker 10: Well, the Energy Minister is outstanding at sending us broke.

332
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:55,120
Speaker 10: We're doubling up on renewable energy systems, which are really

333
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:59,719
Speaker 10: ruinable of using energy systems which are tried and proven.

334
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:01,639
Speaker 10: I know that the day don't work, and we know

335
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 10: they're very expensive and as soon as you faced with

336
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:07,360
Speaker 10: a problem, is incapable of solving it. And so we're

337
00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:11,000
Speaker 10: getting these mixed messages and basically they're floundering around trying

338
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:13,280
Speaker 10: to work out what to do, and I suspect what

339
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,360
Speaker 10: will happen is that they'll hope that the war will

340
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:18,960
Speaker 10: end and business will go back to usual. And then

341
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,600
Speaker 10: I say, well, losen the problem, aren't we wonderful?

342
00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:27,959
Speaker 3: Now let's talk about Indonesia coming to our rescue. Australia's

343
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:31,720
Speaker 3: ambassador in Jakata has been assured a major state owned

344
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:36,359
Speaker 3: urrea manufacturer in Indonesia will help to bolster crucial fertilizer

345
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:40,320
Speaker 3: supplies amid a global shortage caused by the war in Iran.

346
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:45,000
Speaker 3: Rahmad Probati, the head of Indonesia's state to own fertilizer manufacturer,

347
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:49,040
Speaker 3: told the Australian newspaper food security is a shared responsibility

348
00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:53,320
Speaker 3: because of our intertwined and interconnected value chain. It is

349
00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:57,320
Speaker 3: in Indonesia's interests for Australia to remain a strong agricultural

350
00:19:57,359 --> 00:20:02,159
Speaker 3: producer and exporter because Indonesia is also dependent on Australia

351
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:07,399
Speaker 3: for certain commodities. Ian, can you explain the significance of

352
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,919
Speaker 3: this deal? And again, how do we come to a

353
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:15,720
Speaker 3: position where we are so dependent on other countries? Has

354
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:20,239
Speaker 3: it always been this way or have we moved in

355
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:25,960
Speaker 3: that direction by offshoring so many of our crucial industries.

356
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,000
Speaker 10: We've moved in that direction over a couple of decades.

357
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:34,560
Speaker 10: We do need urea right now because we're planting winter crops.

358
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 10: We also need additives for diesel engines, which we get

359
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,359
Speaker 10: from urea. But we also need a lot of asset

360
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,280
Speaker 10: and that acid we use to react with super phostate

361
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:48,199
Speaker 10: or to produce super phostate from our phosphate rock. And

362
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 10: by having such high energy costs with smelters under such strain,

363
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:55,520
Speaker 10: they are reducing production. Some of them might even close.

364
00:20:55,760 --> 00:21:00,680
Speaker 10: So we're in a critical situation. By exporting a lot

365
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 10: of our products, we are not actually making things ourselves.

366
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 10: We are not actually creating any products in this country.

367
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,400
Speaker 10: We're working on a just in time basis, and as

368
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:13,919
Speaker 10: soon as it's a slight hiccup, we're in real trouble.

369
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:17,240
Speaker 10: Now that hiccup was very very quick. We were in

370
00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:20,399
Speaker 10: trouble very quickly, So we really have to take a

371
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:23,080
Speaker 10: deep breath and say we have to be self sufficient.

372
00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:25,000
Speaker 9: We're in Ireland, We're a long way.

373
00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:29,240
Speaker 10: From everywhere, and we cannot rely on basic commodities such

374
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:33,359
Speaker 10: as urea and ammonium nitrate to keep this country fed

375
00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,719
Speaker 10: and keep this country running, and to keep diesel engines running.

376
00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:40,520
Speaker 10: So we have been letting the country slip for decades.

377
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:43,199
Speaker 3: I think the message there is we have to be

378
00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:46,119
Speaker 3: self sufficient, we have to energy independent, we have to

379
00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:49,280
Speaker 3: be self sufficient when it comes to these critical areas.

380
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:51,240
Speaker 3: Professor Plymath, thank you so much for your time. Thank

381
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 3: you Still to come. Lefties Losing at past. The latest

382
00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:59,840
Speaker 3: from the US, including the New York may implementing radical

383
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:14,480
Speaker 3: race based policies. Kosher gata is up next. You're watching

384
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:17,399
Speaker 3: the Reader Paney Show, and it's time for left is

385
00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:21,680
Speaker 3: Losing It, and we're starting tonight with the seriously deranged

386
00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:26,440
Speaker 3: Democrats strategist James Carvill, who is apparently now an authority

387
00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:30,199
Speaker 3: on manners and decorum. This is how he speaks to

388
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:32,120
Speaker 3: the President of the United States.

389
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,119
Speaker 4: Just sit down and you're listen to me, you fat

390
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:37,960
Speaker 4: all right, I'm getting ready to tell you something that's

391
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,119
Speaker 4: very important, knowledge that no one else is gonna tell you.

392
00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 4: So I gonna tell you right to you. By the way,

393
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:43,960
Speaker 4: get your finger out of yet, quit licking it. You

394
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,800
Speaker 4: don't know goddamn manners. How are you brought up.

395
00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:53,359
Speaker 3: Ah, Yes, here's mister congeniality. Quite clearly. Carvill is also

396
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:57,359
Speaker 3: promising that the Democrats are going to engage in law

397
00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:01,320
Speaker 3: fare and not only go after prison in retirement, but

398
00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:02,400
Speaker 3: also his children.

399
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:06,080
Speaker 12: To me, Trump, I'm gonna tell you, I fat something.

400
00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 12: You're getting ready to get the living kicked out of you.

401
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:14,159
Speaker 12: You don't know because they haven't really told you. Let

402
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:16,640
Speaker 12: me tell you something. They're gonna They're gonna start breaking

403
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:20,639
Speaker 12: the news to you kind of gently, and you're gonna

404
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:24,280
Speaker 12: sit there and wonder what it feels like to be

405
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,240
Speaker 12: pushing the mouth, by my case. Then they're gonna start

406
00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:30,440
Speaker 12: going after you. Then they're gonna start figuring out where

407
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:32,159
Speaker 12: all the money's stolen it. Then they're going to go

408
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:37,480
Speaker 12: after your stupid kids and their spousers and all other

409
00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:40,679
Speaker 12: you see, and they're gonna investigate out of you.

410
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:45,560
Speaker 3: I'd believe their threats. The Democrats have already shown that

411
00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:50,120
Speaker 3: they are quite happy to manufacture share charges and use

412
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:54,160
Speaker 3: activist judges to go after their political opponents. No wonder

413
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 3: they like the Iranian regime so much. They share plenty

414
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 3: in common. Now here, we have a case of life

415
00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:04,600
Speaker 3: coming at you fast. Let's hear from a leftist bragging

416
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:10,760
Speaker 3: about fleeing America for Mexico. Everything is apparently glorious in Mexico.

417
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:14,280
Speaker 13: Like, how is it that Mexicans have fallen for American

418
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:19,360
Speaker 13: propaganda of Mexico because we're we're moving is amazing, it's thriving.

419
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:21,040
Speaker 13: We're moving to ply at Elkarma in Mexico. It's like

420
00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 13: thirty minutes from Cancun. They're acting like where we're moving

421
00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 13: isn't safe or livable. We want our kids to be

422
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:30,840
Speaker 13: a majority and out of minority. I want to be

423
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:34,160
Speaker 13: a majority and out of minority, real food, affordable health care,

424
00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:37,479
Speaker 13: problical beaches, jungle, not having to fear for our safety

425
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:41,360
Speaker 13: due to racism, diversity, Trump not being our president.

426
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:47,960
Speaker 3: Now that was late last year, November. Surely the Mexico

427
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 3: honeymoon hasn't worn off yet.

428
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:54,399
Speaker 13: Surely we were finally able to escape the United States

429
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:57,119
Speaker 13: and we're having to move back already. So with that,

430
00:24:57,680 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 13: we're having to go to the States to get him

431
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:02,480
Speaker 13: the proper care. We've had to spend hundreds thousands of

432
00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:04,800
Speaker 13: dollars out of pocket that we were not planning on.

433
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:09,800
Speaker 13: So now we're going back to the United States. To

434
00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:13,600
Speaker 13: get ours send the care that he needs, and we're

435
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:16,520
Speaker 13: having to let go of the stream of living here

436
00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 13: in Mexico.

437
00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:20,000
Speaker 14: Are we going to get a bunch of our torture solves? Probably?

438
00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:23,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, you probably will, but we we share.

439
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:24,240
Speaker 6: Well.

440
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:27,199
Speaker 3: Now let's go to the UK, where the taxpayer funded

441
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:32,360
Speaker 3: public broadcaster, the BBC remains a bastion of leftist ideology,

442
00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 3: but every now and then their well funded echo chamber

443
00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:40,119
Speaker 3: receives a much needed reality check. And Douglas Murray, a

444
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:43,520
Speaker 3: good friend of this program, was the right man to

445
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:47,600
Speaker 3: deliver this brutal reality check on the issue of Islamism

446
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:48,359
Speaker 3: in the UK.

447
00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 2: Because of that threat of Islamic extremism, we should have

448
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:57,440
Speaker 2: less Islam in this country. Was that a wise phrase?

449
00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:02,040
Speaker 2: Talking about less Islam? Rely, Less Islam means less people

450
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,720
Speaker 2: of the Muslim faith. That means less Sadjadjavid's less Suddy

451
00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:10,440
Speaker 2: can'ts well, it means anyone who's a Muslim means I.

452
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:12,400
Speaker 15: Mean, it would also mean less people like the Abaedy

453
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 15: family wound it. Yes, I mean, I mean yeah.

454
00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:19,440
Speaker 2: The point is you're talking about less Islam that is Muslim.

455
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:21,879
Speaker 15: No, just bear with me, because I know better than

456
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:26,600
Speaker 15: you what I think this country has had a wildly

457
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:31,920
Speaker 15: stupid and lacks immigration policy for decades, and we allowed

458
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:35,920
Speaker 15: people like the Abadi family, a family of jihadists who'd

459
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:39,639
Speaker 15: fallen out with Colonel Gadaffi because they were from rival

460
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:43,960
Speaker 15: jihadist groups. When their Bady family fell out with Colonel Gadaffi,

461
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:47,439
Speaker 15: they came first to London and then to Manchester. And

462
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:51,840
Speaker 15: one of the sons they gave this country was Salman Abady,

463
00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:54,800
Speaker 15: who at the age of twenty two killed twenty two

464
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:58,359
Speaker 15: young girls at the Manchester Arena in a suicide bomb.

465
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:02,520
Speaker 15: Won by the way, for every year of life this

466
00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:07,879
Speaker 15: country gave him. His brothers just stabbed and thrown boiling

467
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:09,199
Speaker 15: oil at three prison prisons.

468
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:10,080
Speaker 3: Let me be terrific.

469
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:11,680
Speaker 2: Why would the Abady hang on?

470
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:15,240
Speaker 15: Why were the Abedy family in the UK? Why is

471
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 15: nobody interested in asking that?

472
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:18,920
Speaker 6: Look?

473
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:22,439
Speaker 3: I knew the BBC presenter then, Nick wash was in

474
00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:25,520
Speaker 3: all sorts of trouble when Douglas said I think I

475
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,320
Speaker 3: know better than you what I think and what would

476
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:31,800
Speaker 3: hope that the BBC presenter would try a little harder

477
00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:36,080
Speaker 3: to listen to Douglas's arguments, but alas he came back

478
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:39,439
Speaker 3: with the same old tide lines, and he got the

479
00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:41,480
Speaker 3: schooling he richly deserved.

480
00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:46,480
Speaker 2: There is a problem with fundamentalism and Islamic extremism and

481
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:51,640
Speaker 2: fundamental Islam. You're saying less of everyone, which means less

482
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 2: Sajid David d less, Sodi cahn't and.

483
00:27:55,720 --> 00:28:00,000
Speaker 15: Problem but always Sergid. No, of course he's not stereotype.

484
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 15: I mean this is a kind of dated conversation to

485
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:06,560
Speaker 15: my mind, because this is all being addressed elsewhere as

486
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:11,720
Speaker 15: we speak. Nobody else is as incredibly slow in learning

487
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,600
Speaker 15: as the British media and political class when it comes

488
00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:15,159
Speaker 15: to this problem.

489
00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 3: You know, I most feel sorry for the guy. But

490
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:21,479
Speaker 3: talking about race, obsessions and Islamism, let's go to New

491
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:25,320
Speaker 3: York City, where mayors are in Mendani has decided that

492
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:29,000
Speaker 3: the color of your skin will determine what resources you're

493
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:34,879
Speaker 3: able to access. Forget about equality, his instituting equity. I

494
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 3: don't know what could possibly go wrong.

495
00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:40,240
Speaker 16: And while today's true cost of living measure confirms that

496
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:44,440
Speaker 16: the affordability crisis touches every corner of our city, we

497
00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 16: know that these effects are not applied evenly. So often

498
00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 16: it is black and brown New Yorkers who are hit

499
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:54,640
Speaker 16: the hardest. This preliminary Racial Equity Plan is the first

500
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:58,960
Speaker 16: step in developing a whole of government approach to tackling

501
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 16: that reality. It is a plan that lays out these

502
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:05,200
Speaker 16: first steps to solve decades of neglect and discrimination.

503
00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:13,240
Speaker 3: Genius, just genius, fighting imaginary discrimination with real discrimination. What

504
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:18,800
Speaker 3: Ma'm Dani is instituting isn't just racism institutional racism. It's

505
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 3: government mandated racism and it should be illegal. Let's bring

506
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:28,440
Speaker 3: in Sky News contributor Kosher gaita kosher equity and terms

507
00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 3: like positive discrimination, well they're just nice sounding ways to

508
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:38,200
Speaker 3: say racist because you are determining the access people have

509
00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:41,120
Speaker 3: to certain resources based on the color of their skin.

510
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:44,920
Speaker 17: Equity reminds me of Kamala Harris. There was this thing

511
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:46,760
Speaker 17: on the campaign trail where she was like, I'm not

512
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:49,920
Speaker 17: talking about equality, I'm talking about equity and it sounds meant,

513
00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 17: sounds rebro and smart, but like, what.

514
00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:52,960
Speaker 18: Does it mean?

515
00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:56,680
Speaker 17: Usually it's a business term stakeholder value and seeing black

516
00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:58,760
Speaker 17: and brown people deserve more stakeholder I don't know, it

517
00:29:58,760 --> 00:29:59,520
Speaker 17: doesn't make any sense.

518
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:02,000
Speaker 3: It means communism is what it means. It makes not

519
00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 3: equality of opportunity, but of equality of outcome right, which

520
00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:10,120
Speaker 3: you can only really have if you enforce it.

521
00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:13,680
Speaker 17: That's right, but they hide behind your point words like

522
00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:15,880
Speaker 17: don't actually make sense, and so they can sort of

523
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:18,160
Speaker 17: say what they're trying to say without actually saying it.

524
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,880
Speaker 17: I also think the black and brown scope creep is interesting.

525
00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:24,000
Speaker 17: I don't know when that happened, but it did along

526
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:26,600
Speaker 17: the way, and just say nonwait, because that's basically what

527
00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:28,320
Speaker 17: they're saying. And if he had the people standing behind

528
00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:31,720
Speaker 17: him doesn't Includesians and like Indian Americans that are very successful,

529
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:33,040
Speaker 17: so they're not this is it.

530
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:38,520
Speaker 3: He can be certain colors where by his logic, you

531
00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:42,880
Speaker 3: should be qualifying, but you don't because you are very

532
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:48,040
Speaker 3: economically capable. It's not very Indian Americans is a good example.

533
00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:51,160
Speaker 3: Asian Americans, which Iranian Americans.

534
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:53,240
Speaker 17: All of it is, and that's when they're sneaking and

535
00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:55,920
Speaker 17: brown into that. And to a point about the legality

536
00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:59,800
Speaker 17: in so far as he does any actual enforcement of it,

537
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:02,040
Speaker 17: would run a file with civil rights law and Hermie

538
00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 17: Dillon is generally all over those types of things.

539
00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 3: But she's already said she's going to be watching this

540
00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:08,000
Speaker 3: one very closely.

541
00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:09,880
Speaker 17: It's more I think the pandering and sort of the

542
00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:12,440
Speaker 17: soft discrimination that I think he will keep pushing because

543
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:13,320
Speaker 17: that's what he believes it.

544
00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:16,520
Speaker 3: Now, let's go to the conflict in Iran and President

545
00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:19,040
Speaker 3: Donald Trump has made it clear to the media that

546
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:22,360
Speaker 3: he's not interested in the critiques of opponents upset by

547
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:25,520
Speaker 3: his rehetrick and threats against the Iranian regime.

548
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 15: Yesterday, in your Truth Social you called the Iranians crazy bastards.

549
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 16: True.

550
00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:33,840
Speaker 19: What is your response to critics who say that I

551
00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:36,040
Speaker 19: don't care about? What is your response to critics who

552
00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:38,240
Speaker 19: said that is your mental health that should perhaps be

553
00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:39,360
Speaker 19: examined as this worked.

554
00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:42,160
Speaker 8: I haven't heard that. But if that's the case, you're

555
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:44,000
Speaker 8: going to have to have more people like me, because

556
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:48,680
Speaker 8: our country is being ripped off on trade and everything

557
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:51,960
Speaker 8: for many years until I came along. So if that's

558
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:53,600
Speaker 8: the case, you're going to have to have more people.

559
00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:57,800
Speaker 3: And the President also pointed out that the Islamist Iranian

560
00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:00,000
Speaker 3: regime cannot be trusted.

561
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:03,240
Speaker 8: Because they're very good bullshited artists. That's why for forty

562
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:06,760
Speaker 8: seven years they've been bullshitting other presidents and they haven't

563
00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:10,080
Speaker 8: done the job. And people are living in hell. You

564
00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:13,440
Speaker 8: live in that country, they're living in hell. No, I

565
00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:18,800
Speaker 8: think that forty seven years of this stuff is long enough.

566
00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:21,640
Speaker 8: They're at the weakest point they've ever been.

567
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:26,520
Speaker 3: Kosher. The President also pointed out that the Iranian regime

568
00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:29,160
Speaker 3: doesn't have an air force any longer, doesn't have a navy,

569
00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:33,240
Speaker 3: doesn't really have decent communication, and that is in fact

570
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:35,840
Speaker 3: impeding negotiation efforts.

571
00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:39,040
Speaker 17: Yes, I think the first bit over there of the

572
00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:42,360
Speaker 17: journalist was using a tweet as proof positive of mental

573
00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:44,000
Speaker 17: stability that doesn't land anymore.

574
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:45,040
Speaker 18: It's very twenty fifteen.

575
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:47,960
Speaker 17: There is a legitimate line of questioning, which is the

576
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:51,000
Speaker 17: second clip sort of touches on that around that point

577
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 17: that if you have decimated them to the point that

578
00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:55,360
Speaker 17: there's no one to negotiate with, then what what's her

579
00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:55,960
Speaker 17: off ramp?

580
00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:57,720
Speaker 18: What's a negotiation strategy?

581
00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:00,320
Speaker 17: The other piece of that tweet that the world up

582
00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:01,800
Speaker 17: to where he said, you know, it's gonna be bridge

583
00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:04,400
Speaker 17: day and land today, that could have been a line

584
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:06,239
Speaker 17: of questioning that, you know, was that just rhetoric orre

585
00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:09,280
Speaker 17: you serious? Because that's civilian infrastructure. What are you saying here?

586
00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:11,080
Speaker 17: And he wouldn't have given up his strategy, but that

587
00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:12,480
Speaker 17: would have been a better approach than it, but.

588
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:14,920
Speaker 3: That looking for their ex moment. They're looking for their

589
00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:19,680
Speaker 3: TikTok moment than looking for the opportunity to say to

590
00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:23,560
Speaker 3: the American President that you know, it's your mental health

591
00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:24,840
Speaker 3: that is being questioned.

592
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:25,160
Speaker 6: They are.

593
00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:28,640
Speaker 3: But yeah, it doesn't land An, It wasn't land It's

594
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:32,080
Speaker 3: not twenty fifteen, folks. We've moved on. Those sort of

595
00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:36,160
Speaker 3: tactics don't work any longer. President Trump mentioned there that

596
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:39,280
Speaker 3: the Iranian people have been living in health for forty

597
00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:44,240
Speaker 3: seven years, and even now while the regime is being decimated,

598
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 3: it is still killing its own citizens.

599
00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:50,800
Speaker 19: Amir Hussein Hatami was an innocent eighteen year old who

600
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:54,600
Speaker 19: was arrested in January. His crime was simply protesting against

601
00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:58,360
Speaker 19: is amirigime. They executed him yesterday and took his life.

602
00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:01,120
Speaker 19: He was denied a trial, is still cut off. We

603
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:03,640
Speaker 19: still can't hear from his family. These are the war

604
00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:05,960
Speaker 19: crimes that you're not going to hear on the headlines

605
00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:08,399
Speaker 19: of the western media outlets. There are four other men

606
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,120
Speaker 19: who are sentenced execution on the same day as here.

607
00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:14,120
Speaker 3: So much of this news is being shared on social

608
00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:20,080
Speaker 3: media by Uranian dissidents expats who are trying to get

609
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:24,120
Speaker 3: this message out their kosher at a time when increasing

610
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:27,680
Speaker 3: amounts of the US media seem to be siding with

611
00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:34,880
Speaker 3: the Iranian regime, repeating their propaganda and really characterizing this

612
00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:38,160
Speaker 3: war in the most bizarre fashion. It seems like their

613
00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:43,520
Speaker 3: hatred of Trump is blinding them to the regime they're defending.

614
00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:45,919
Speaker 17: So true, and we see them do that all the time,

615
00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:49,520
Speaker 17: where the teds is the guiding principle, and then everything

616
00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:52,080
Speaker 17: else will fall around that, you know, as the chips may.

617
00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:55,240
Speaker 17: This kind of reporting is a reminder of the regime

618
00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:58,279
Speaker 17: and how brutal it is. And as you say, it's

619
00:34:58,280 --> 00:34:59,920
Speaker 17: hard for those things to get out because there's sort

620
00:34:59,920 --> 00:35:02,040
Speaker 17: of just a blanket around that kind of media. But

621
00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:04,399
Speaker 17: we live in the world of social media and independent media,

622
00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:06,600
Speaker 17: so it does come out, and it just again makes

623
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:10,080
Speaker 17: the media look feckless because there is again a legitimate

624
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:12,480
Speaker 17: critique to tigue against Trump, but that would require them

625
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:14,839
Speaker 17: to sort of side with that faction of the Trump

626
00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:16,880
Speaker 17: coalition that has been against US war because it's not

627
00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:20,640
Speaker 17: America first, as brutalism regime is, how is that our business?

628
00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:23,040
Speaker 17: That line of questioning the left and the media won't

629
00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:25,520
Speaker 17: go there. Because they don't want to ally with that

630
00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:26,440
Speaker 17: side of the islands.

631
00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:27,439
Speaker 18: They are just going to That.

632
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:30,040
Speaker 3: Actually would be a fascinating thing for the media to

633
00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:34,920
Speaker 3: focus on about any potential rift between the President and

634
00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:40,160
Speaker 3: his Vice President jd. Vance. Even the President has admitted

635
00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:43,520
Speaker 3: it has not been as enthusiastic about what's happening in

636
00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:46,680
Speaker 3: Iran as others in the administration. That is actually something

637
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:51,760
Speaker 3: very interesting to explore on Oever, now, Trump has called

638
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:56,600
Speaker 3: out the media's relentless negative coverage of him in recent days.

639
00:35:56,640 --> 00:35:58,760
Speaker 3: He has made this point several times.

640
00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:03,120
Speaker 8: I get ninety three to ninety seven percent bad press,

641
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:04,360
Speaker 8: fake press, or fake.

642
00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:07,040
Speaker 6: I wanted a landslide.

643
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:11,600
Speaker 3: The point he keeps making is that there must be

644
00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:14,640
Speaker 3: something terribly wrong with the media and with trust in

645
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:18,720
Speaker 3: the media. With someone who receives so much bad coverage,

646
00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:21,719
Speaker 3: we're talking well over ninety percent, there can win an

647
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:23,880
Speaker 3: election in a landslide.

648
00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:24,919
Speaker 18: And they know it. Trust is down.

649
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:27,120
Speaker 17: Even as Trump's pull numbers maybe take or taking a

650
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:28,960
Speaker 17: little bit of a dip right now, he's still way

651
00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:32,280
Speaker 17: way above the trust numbers, and the media it's irredeemably

652
00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:35,920
Speaker 17: use their friend Hillary Clinton's famous whatever, it's irredeemable right now,

653
00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:39,040
Speaker 17: their status, their ratings are down, trust is down, everything

654
00:36:39,080 --> 00:36:39,319
Speaker 17: is down.

655
00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:41,359
Speaker 18: They're circling the drain. They know it.

656
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 17: But that adversarial relationship between the press and journalists and

657
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:48,759
Speaker 17: Trump is one of the many things that was his

658
00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:51,319
Speaker 17: signature put him on the map. He coined that term

659
00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:54,640
Speaker 17: fake news. The media was already going down, but he really,

660
00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:56,480
Speaker 17: I think was the final nail in the coffin, and

661
00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:59,719
Speaker 17: he's going to continue that adversarial positioning.

662
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:03,880
Speaker 3: Well, trust in the US media is a historic glows

663
00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:08,200
Speaker 3: and when you look at trust from Republicans and independent voters,

664
00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:12,520
Speaker 3: it is rock bottom. Democrats still have some trust in

665
00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:15,320
Speaker 3: the media well, because the media are mainly Democrats.

666
00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:15,759
Speaker 8: Now.

667
00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:20,320
Speaker 3: We have spoken about that commy convoy to Cuba previously

668
00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:22,799
Speaker 3: on this program. It featured the likes of stream A

669
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:27,600
Speaker 3: Hassan Pika and he was on CNN talking about his experience.

670
00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:30,680
Speaker 20: I couldn't believe the site that I was seeing. It

671
00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:33,640
Speaker 20: was very sad. You had homes that looked like they

672
00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:36,480
Speaker 20: were bombed out. I already had known about the rolling

673
00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:39,920
Speaker 20: blackouts and I experienced them later in the day and

674
00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:43,160
Speaker 20: it was definitely unlike anything I've ever experienced. Before everything

675
00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:47,239
Speaker 20: is pitch black, there aren't any traffic lights on. It's crazy, right,

676
00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:50,839
Speaker 20: But I was taken aback. I was very sad by

677
00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:53,080
Speaker 20: all the poverty that I saw, and then I was

678
00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:54,240
Speaker 20: very angry.

679
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:56,920
Speaker 3: Kosher, of course, he was not angry at all with

680
00:37:57,080 --> 00:38:00,799
Speaker 3: the communist regime there that they've destroyed that island nation.

681
00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:06,040
Speaker 3: He's not angry with the failed doctrine of communism. And

682
00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:08,560
Speaker 3: I've got to ask why is sin and having a

683
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:12,400
Speaker 3: guy on who said America deserve nine eleven or his

684
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:15,759
Speaker 3: exact words. I'm not taking him out of context. And

685
00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:18,480
Speaker 3: not only did Sina not ask him about that, it

686
00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:20,960
Speaker 3: didn't ask him about all the other crazy comments he's

687
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:21,600
Speaker 3: made like this.

688
00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,319
Speaker 14: Well, my understanding is that the property owners who have

689
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:27,560
Speaker 14: properties there choose just not to rent it at all.

690
00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:32,200
Speaker 20: Yeah, chill them, murder those in the street, let the streets,

691
00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:36,320
Speaker 20: let the streets sook in their red capitalist bloods.

692
00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:40,320
Speaker 3: Dude, if a figure on the right Kosher had said

693
00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:44,919
Speaker 3: anything remotely close to that, that had to be disavowed

694
00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:50,240
Speaker 3: by everyone. But Hassan Pika is a hobnobbing with Democrats

695
00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:54,759
Speaker 3: and is invited on CNN as a serious guest.

696
00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:56,120
Speaker 17: Because he's part of the club, and it really is

697
00:38:56,160 --> 00:39:00,200
Speaker 17: a lesson and that circular firing squad that the ratars'll

698
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:01,520
Speaker 17: be the first, or right will be the first to

699
00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:04,080
Speaker 17: chastise somebody on their side of the aisle who say

700
00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:07,239
Speaker 17: even remotely what he does. The left just doesn't do

701
00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:09,319
Speaker 17: that because he's part of the club. I think maybe

702
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:11,080
Speaker 17: there's a business reason too. He does have lots and

703
00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:13,760
Speaker 17: lots of viewers, and CNN is hemorrhaging viewers, as we discuss,

704
00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:15,560
Speaker 17: so they think, oh, let's, you know, get some of

705
00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:18,839
Speaker 17: this independent media talent on our airwaves. Maybe that's sort

706
00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:22,560
Speaker 17: of a cynical business aspect to it. But he, you know,

707
00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:24,880
Speaker 17: I'll give him credit for doing on location reporting by

708
00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:27,520
Speaker 17: going to Cuba, but he won't take that next step.

709
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:29,759
Speaker 18: Why is it like that? Why are there blackouts and

710
00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:30,480
Speaker 18: he won't go there?

711
00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:34,200
Speaker 3: How is he railing against capitualism like we just heard,

712
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:38,400
Speaker 3: when the man's a multimillionaire, he lives in a multimillion

713
00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:41,600
Speaker 3: dollar property. I mean, how do you say, you know,

714
00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:46,960
Speaker 3: basically kill capitalist when you're a very good example of one.

715
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:49,600
Speaker 17: From his lips to Billie Eilish's ears when she was

716
00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:53,400
Speaker 17: about the stolen land, they don't make that connection, or

717
00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:55,400
Speaker 17: they do, but they don't.

718
00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:55,880
Speaker 18: Want to reveal it.

719
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:57,960
Speaker 17: And you know that's sort of the act and the

720
00:39:57,960 --> 00:39:58,680
Speaker 17: game that they play.

721
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:02,400
Speaker 3: Now, we've covered the news of the US reporting at

722
00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:07,440
Speaker 3: bumper jobs report, well above market expectations, and that comes

723
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:10,920
Speaker 3: kosher at a time when the Trump administration is slashing

724
00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:15,920
Speaker 3: taxpayer roles. The number of federal employees is decreasing at

725
00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:20,400
Speaker 3: a rapid rate while employment in the private sector is increasing.

726
00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:24,759
Speaker 3: It's a good situation for the taxpayer, very different to

727
00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:27,440
Speaker 3: what we see here in Australia, where just about every

728
00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:31,400
Speaker 3: new job is either directly or indirectly funded by taxpayers.

729
00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:36,160
Speaker 17: Absolutely, I've seen banking, mining and real estate and government.

730
00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:38,080
Speaker 17: That's basically the economy here. And it didn't have to

731
00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:38,600
Speaker 17: be in this way.

732
00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:40,520
Speaker 18: That's a self inflicted.

733
00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:43,640
Speaker 17: Wound over many years in Australia many parts of the country,

734
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:48,200
Speaker 17: and in America certainly under the last administration and even.

735
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:48,840
Speaker 18: Before and Trump.

736
00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:52,320
Speaker 17: His whole platform when it was trade and tariffs and

737
00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:55,279
Speaker 17: then immigration, both those things together was about jobs and

738
00:40:55,320 --> 00:40:59,200
Speaker 17: the American worker being a key constituent more than the consumer.

739
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:01,920
Speaker 17: Even even a pricess go up. For example, with tariffs,

740
00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:04,480
Speaker 17: the worker and the jobs is important more than being

741
00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:07,920
Speaker 17: thisbastian to welcome the world. That has been a signature issue.

742
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,239
Speaker 17: If those numbers continue, that will be helpful to him

743
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:12,400
Speaker 17: because he is suffering right now and the Paul's on

744
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:14,000
Speaker 17: economics and infletion and all of that.

745
00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:15,520
Speaker 18: So this was definitely a bright spot.

746
00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:20,040
Speaker 3: Kosha Gator, thank you for the time. Pleasure still to come.

747
00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:24,080
Speaker 3: The latest in entertainment news from Carnier's comeback to an

748
00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:28,600
Speaker 3: NBA player sanctioned for sharing his Christian beliefs, Alex Stein

749
00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:40,800
Speaker 3: is up next Welcome Back.

750
00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:41,160
Speaker 4: Now.

751
00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:46,680
Speaker 3: The Chicago Bulls are being accused of hypocrisy, cowardice, and stupidity.

752
00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:50,759
Speaker 3: It's an unhappy trifecta. Basketball fans are I rate with

753
00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:54,840
Speaker 3: the club because the club has waived guard Jaden Ivy

754
00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:58,680
Speaker 3: for what they say is conduct detrimental to the team.

755
00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:03,279
Speaker 3: Apparently about Christian speaking out about the NBA's embrace of

756
00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:08,200
Speaker 3: Pride Month is detrimental, but being a lefty activist is

757
00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:13,360
Speaker 3: perfectly fine. Players pushing racial politics and anti ice messaging

758
00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:17,760
Speaker 3: have had no penalties imposed. Here is Jade and Ivy

759
00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:21,839
Speaker 3: saying no one is going to stop him from talking in.

760
00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:26,520
Speaker 21: Terms of like LGBTQ, right, I don't. I'm not against

761
00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:32,560
Speaker 21: the man or the woman. I'm against what is contrary

762
00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:35,719
Speaker 21: to the word of God. Man is not supposed to

763
00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:38,720
Speaker 21: lie with a man, and a woman is not supposed

764
00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:42,360
Speaker 21: to lie with a woman. So for me as a Christian,

765
00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:48,839
Speaker 21: as a born again Christian who believes in Jesus Christ, right,

766
00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:53,440
Speaker 21: I can proclaim the truth what the Word of God says,

767
00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:57,200
Speaker 21: and I can do that with freedom. I have a

768
00:42:57,239 --> 00:42:59,120
Speaker 21: mouth to speak. No one can.

769
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:02,920
Speaker 3: Start me joining me now is the host of After

770
00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:07,720
Speaker 3: Hours with Alex Stein on Real America's Voice. Alex, what's

771
00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:09,480
Speaker 3: your take on all of this. I know you're a

772
00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:12,719
Speaker 3: sports fan, and whether you agree with him or not,

773
00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:16,359
Speaker 3: shouldn't he have the right to say that without having

774
00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:17,640
Speaker 3: his livelihood threatened?

775
00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:21,680
Speaker 14: Well, of course, he deserves to have the ability to

776
00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:23,880
Speaker 14: speak freely. That's why we have the First Amendment. But

777
00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:26,759
Speaker 14: we learned during the pandemic that these corporations don't have

778
00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:28,040
Speaker 14: to follow the constitution.

779
00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:30,080
Speaker 10: So I think that's.

780
00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:32,120
Speaker 14: Where the rubber meets the road, is the fact that

781
00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:34,920
Speaker 14: the NBA can control the way these people speak. And

782
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:36,839
Speaker 14: what's really crazy about it is that if you think

783
00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:41,160
Speaker 14: about what is pride Night represent it represents people's sexual preference.

784
00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:42,960
Speaker 14: That's the only difference between a gay person and a

785
00:43:42,960 --> 00:43:45,719
Speaker 14: straight person is who they're sexually attracted to. So why

786
00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:49,120
Speaker 14: does the NBA a league that is dedicated and focused

787
00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:51,920
Speaker 14: on you know, children, Basically those are their biggest fans,

788
00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:54,920
Speaker 14: celebrating who people like to have sex with. So it's

789
00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:57,960
Speaker 14: ridiculous that he is getting canceled for this because it's

790
00:43:57,960 --> 00:43:59,520
Speaker 14: just an unnecessary thing to celebrate.

791
00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:03,680
Speaker 3: In my opinion, well, I think we would all like

792
00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:08,680
Speaker 3: to see sporting leagues step away from politics and just

793
00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:13,160
Speaker 3: focus on what they're good at and stop having so

794
00:44:13,239 --> 00:44:16,399
Speaker 3: many fans angry with them as it's just every week

795
00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:19,400
Speaker 3: we seem to hear from sports fans or upset with

796
00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:23,239
Speaker 3: the NFL, the NBA, whatever the league is that has

797
00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:27,560
Speaker 3: taken some contentious political position. Now let's go to the UK.

798
00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:31,759
Speaker 3: British Prime Minister Kiss Starmer has slammed organizers at the

799
00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:36,120
Speaker 3: Wireless Festival after they booked Carnea West. Starma told The

800
00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:39,960
Speaker 3: Sun newspaper it is deeply concerning the Carnee West has

801
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:43,720
Speaker 3: been booked to perform at Wireless despite his previous anti

802
00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:50,359
Speaker 3: Semitic remarks and celebration of Nazis. Nazism, anti Semitism in

803
00:44:50,680 --> 00:44:54,600
Speaker 3: any form is abhorrent and must be confronted firmly wherever

804
00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:58,560
Speaker 3: it appears, everyone has a responsibility to ensure Britain is

805
00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:02,320
Speaker 3: a place where Jewish people f alex. Do you agree

806
00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:07,680
Speaker 3: with Starmer's comments there? Certainly, Kanye West has made quite

807
00:45:07,719 --> 00:45:11,120
Speaker 3: a comeback. You had those sold out concerts in Mexico,

808
00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:15,200
Speaker 3: and he's just had two sold out shows in California

809
00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:19,839
Speaker 3: and people have been absolutely raving about those programs.

810
00:45:21,560 --> 00:45:24,759
Speaker 14: Listen, Kanye West is definitely on the record saying some

811
00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:27,640
Speaker 14: very heinous things, but at the same exact time, he

812
00:45:27,680 --> 00:45:30,320
Speaker 14: has apologized for what he said. So, in my opinion,

813
00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:33,880
Speaker 14: America is a country about giving people second chances. I

814
00:45:33,920 --> 00:45:36,800
Speaker 14: know kier Stromer's not in America, and obviously he's British

815
00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:39,680
Speaker 14: or maybe he doesn't have that same sort of mentality,

816
00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:42,319
Speaker 14: But when it comes to Kanye West, the guy apologized.

817
00:45:42,400 --> 00:45:44,440
Speaker 14: I believe in second chances. I think he learned from

818
00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:47,720
Speaker 14: his mistakes. And you know, a lot of other artists

819
00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:51,000
Speaker 14: say some even more discussing things, if you can believe that,

820
00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:55,360
Speaker 14: about killing people and degenerate sex. So sometimes these artists

821
00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:59,120
Speaker 14: choose to say offensive things to push people's buttons, and

822
00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:00,680
Speaker 14: I think that's what kind of he was doing. He

823
00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:03,120
Speaker 14: was trying to push buttons because really, at the end

824
00:46:03,120 --> 00:46:05,399
Speaker 14: of the day, I don't think he's as antisemitic as

825
00:46:05,440 --> 00:46:08,200
Speaker 14: the media labels him. And like I said, he did apologize.

826
00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:09,319
Speaker 14: What more can we ask for him?

827
00:46:11,239 --> 00:46:11,399
Speaker 10: Now?

828
00:46:11,440 --> 00:46:15,000
Speaker 3: I want to play a beautiful Jada Pinkett Smith for you.

829
00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:20,880
Speaker 3: Actress Jada Pinkett Smith's talking about her clearly dysfunctional relationship

830
00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:24,759
Speaker 3: with fellow actor Will Smith. The clip was uploaded by

831
00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:29,439
Speaker 3: fifty cent with the caption God damn father, God, thank

832
00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:32,520
Speaker 3: you for not letting me get into a relationship like this.

833
00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:35,040
Speaker 3: Happy Easter, God bless Let us have a look at

834
00:46:35,080 --> 00:46:35,520
Speaker 3: the clip.

835
00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:40,000
Speaker 18: It is not his responsibility to.

836
00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:41,240
Speaker 6: Make you happy.

837
00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:42,320
Speaker 18: He can't.

838
00:46:42,640 --> 00:46:43,880
Speaker 10: It's impossible.

839
00:46:44,120 --> 00:46:48,560
Speaker 21: But it took me forever, hard headed, stubborn, you know,

840
00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:51,560
Speaker 21: because that romantic idea.

841
00:46:51,719 --> 00:46:53,880
Speaker 6: And that's why I talk about checking the boxes.

842
00:46:55,080 --> 00:46:56,960
Speaker 3: It's like I did everything I was supposed to do.

843
00:46:57,440 --> 00:46:59,319
Speaker 3: You get to have your dream, how come I'm not

844
00:46:59,360 --> 00:46:59,919
Speaker 3: having mine?

845
00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:02,320
Speaker 18: And that's because Will was doing what he wanted to do.

846
00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:06,440
Speaker 6: He was making himself happy.

847
00:47:08,960 --> 00:47:09,320
Speaker 9: Alex.

848
00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:13,040
Speaker 3: I'm interested in your take on the Will Smith Jada

849
00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:18,440
Speaker 3: Pinkett Smith relationship. We've seen it blow up previously, some

850
00:47:18,560 --> 00:47:22,160
Speaker 3: bizarre antics between the two. Basically, Will Smith's sitting there

851
00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:26,800
Speaker 3: whilst his wife detailed affair she had with her son's friend,

852
00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:30,399
Speaker 3: remember that, and Will Smith is having to sit there

853
00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:33,399
Speaker 3: and listen to the details of this. And of course

854
00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:36,360
Speaker 3: there was that incident at the Oscars with Will Smith

855
00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:40,720
Speaker 3: punching who did he punch Chris Rock who was hosting

856
00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:44,520
Speaker 3: the Oscars. So this relationship seems a little bit toxic

857
00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:46,200
Speaker 3: to me. I'm interested in your take.

858
00:47:47,640 --> 00:47:50,000
Speaker 14: I mean, I think bizarre is an understandmer when it

859
00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:52,960
Speaker 14: comes to the description of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett

860
00:47:52,960 --> 00:47:55,480
Speaker 14: Smith's relationship. And to me, it seems like Jada Pinkett

861
00:47:55,480 --> 00:47:59,360
Speaker 14: Smith is doing her best Michelle Obama impression because she

862
00:47:59,520 --> 00:48:03,080
Speaker 14: had a very public affair with one of her children's

863
00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:06,839
Speaker 14: friends where she humiliated Will on her podcast. They got

864
00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:09,919
Speaker 14: billions of yous, probably not even millions, So I think

865
00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:12,160
Speaker 14: she's been able to have her cake and eat it too,

866
00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:14,799
Speaker 14: and for her to sit there and you know, act

867
00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:17,520
Speaker 14: like she's a victim when in reality, Will Smith was

868
00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:19,960
Speaker 14: one of the hottest actors in all of Hollywood and

869
00:48:20,080 --> 00:48:22,799
Speaker 14: Jada Pinkett Smith did not have the same cachet that

870
00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:25,919
Speaker 14: her husband did, and that shouldn't be a punishment on him.

871
00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:29,000
Speaker 14: And really and truly, she's unhappy because she's probably in

872
00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:32,279
Speaker 14: a loveless marriage where she knows that in order to

873
00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:34,600
Speaker 14: get any sort of gratification she has to go find

874
00:48:34,640 --> 00:48:38,440
Speaker 14: it from her child's friends. So, I mean, it's obviously

875
00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:41,480
Speaker 14: toxic and bizarre. And that's just the reality of these

876
00:48:41,520 --> 00:48:44,319
Speaker 14: Hollywood relationships. You know, they have this veneer that they're

877
00:48:44,320 --> 00:48:46,640
Speaker 14: all good, when in reality they're incredibly toxic.

878
00:48:48,239 --> 00:48:52,840
Speaker 3: Well, that relationship and the public airing of Dirty Laundry

879
00:48:52,880 --> 00:48:56,399
Speaker 3: has so damaged Will Smith's image. I mean, you were right.

880
00:48:56,480 --> 00:48:59,680
Speaker 3: He was I think the highest paid actor at one point,

881
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:05,600
Speaker 3: universally loved, and now after that whole furl the Oscars,

882
00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:11,280
Speaker 3: he is just such a figure of mockery. Really. Now,

883
00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:15,080
Speaker 3: I want to ask you about Savannah Guthrie. We've been

884
00:49:15,120 --> 00:49:20,040
Speaker 3: speaking about her because her mother was kidnapped, but Savannah

885
00:49:20,080 --> 00:49:21,160
Speaker 3: is now back on air.

886
00:49:22,400 --> 00:49:24,600
Speaker 9: Welcome to you today on this Monday morning.

887
00:49:24,640 --> 00:49:27,520
Speaker 5: We are so glad you started your week with us,

888
00:49:27,640 --> 00:49:28,759
Speaker 5: and it is good to be home.

889
00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:30,960
Speaker 6: Yes, it is good to have you back at home. Well,

890
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:33,240
Speaker 6: here we go, ready or not, Let's do the news.

891
00:49:33,320 --> 00:49:34,600
Speaker 4: Yes, so good to have you back.

892
00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:40,040
Speaker 3: It's an incredible effort to be fronting up with this

893
00:49:40,160 --> 00:49:44,560
Speaker 3: still hanging over your head. Alex. It's I don't even

894
00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:47,040
Speaker 3: know how she did it, you know.

895
00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:49,240
Speaker 14: I think she's really brave. And I'm happy that Hoda

896
00:49:49,360 --> 00:49:52,000
Speaker 14: wasn't able to steal her job at the Today's Show,

897
00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:54,640
Speaker 14: because you know, Hoda already had her run. So I'm

898
00:49:54,680 --> 00:49:57,120
Speaker 14: happy that Savannah got to keep her job after this

899
00:49:57,160 --> 00:49:59,520
Speaker 14: horrible tragedy, considering there was you know a lot of

900
00:49:59,560 --> 00:50:02,200
Speaker 14: talk speculation that she wasn't going to have that position anymore.

901
00:50:02,320 --> 00:50:05,560
Speaker 14: So good for her, and I'm happy that she's starting to,

902
00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:08,400
Speaker 14: I guess, come to terms with the horrible tragedy of

903
00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:10,760
Speaker 14: losing her mom and one of the worst ways possible.

904
00:50:12,760 --> 00:50:15,320
Speaker 3: Alex Stein, thank you so much for your time tonight,

905
00:50:16,000 --> 00:50:19,080
Speaker 3: and that's all the time we have. Don't go anywhere.

906
00:50:19,239 --> 00:50:20,640
Speaker 3: Newsnight is up next
