Speaker 1: Late General, welcome the Late Debate.
Speaker 2: Thanks for joining us on the Late Debate. I'm James
Speaker 2: Macpherson with Lisdorra and Caleb Bond coming up. The football
Speaker 2: fan who went early getting a tattoo to celebrate England's
Speaker 2: victory in the European Championship. He got the tattoo before
Speaker 2: the final had been played. Needless to say a little
Speaker 2: bit of regret there. We'll talk about that guy a
Speaker 2: little later. Plus, when we look at the papers, the
Speaker 2: Greens want to end the independence of the Reserve Bank.
Speaker 2: What could possibly go wrong? And a very unusual smuggling
Speaker 2: investigation in Tasmania. All of that when we get to
Speaker 2: the papers. But first, the assassination attempt at the weekend
Speaker 2: has raised a lot of questions, not least of which
Speaker 2: how was it that a rooftop with a clear line
Speaker 2: of sight to where Donald Trump was speaking just one
Speaker 2: hundred and twenty meters away was left completely unattended. Well
Speaker 2: Agent Snowflake, also known as the Secret Service Director Kimberly
Speaker 2: Cheetle went on the ABC to explain it was all
Speaker 2: a matter of workplace health and safety.
Speaker 1: Should that roof have been secure?
Speaker 3: Period?
Speaker 4: That building in particular has a sloped roof at its
Speaker 4: highest point, and so you know there's a safety factor
Speaker 4: that would be considered there that we wouldn't want to
Speaker 4: put somebody up on a sloped roof, and so you know,
Speaker 4: the decision was made to secure the building from inside.
Speaker 2: You have got to be kidding me. They couldn't put
Speaker 2: agents on the roof because it was sloped. My driveway
Speaker 2: has a bigger slope than that roof. And it's funny
Speaker 2: how you know the Secret Service agents had no trouble
Speaker 2: navigating that dangerous slope when they were on the roof
Speaker 2: after the gunman had shot Donald Trump in the side
Speaker 2: of the head. There they are on that dangers roof.
Speaker 2: Call workplace health and safety basically a cliff basically. It's
Speaker 2: also funny how the Secret Service agents when they were
Speaker 2: poised behind Donald Trump during his speech, were on a
Speaker 2: slope roof. Have a look at this vision. Here's the
Speaker 2: Secret Service agents, the snipers behind Donald Trump while he's speaking.
Speaker 2: That looks to me.
Speaker 5: Slow.
Speaker 6: How would that has got to be a five degree
Speaker 6: slope right there? Call it.
Speaker 1: I'm surprised. I'm surprised.
Speaker 5: Could you imagine them being asked to do this?
Speaker 6: Your mission if you choose to accept it, and they're like,
Speaker 6: excuse me, did you just say there's a slope involved.
Speaker 2: I think those threes are the only two agents who
Speaker 2: passed the slope roof, and we're therefore certified beyond that.
Speaker 7: Well, this is this is the problem, and we know
Speaker 7: the Secret Service it's.
Speaker 1: Such a terrible job.
Speaker 7: Clearly they've unionized, right, and so they got their union
Speaker 7: rep to call up Cheetle and say, look, we're not
Speaker 7: going up on any slope roofs Miss, We're not going
Speaker 7: to do it. And I love that she says, Look,
Speaker 7: it was really about safety. We had to worry about
Speaker 7: the safety of our often what the safety President Trump
Speaker 7: not being shot in the ear because you were won't
Speaker 7: to about the safety of your own officers, whose job,
Speaker 7: by the way, is to take a bullue take a
Speaker 7: bullet off of their lives for the prediction of presidents
Speaker 7: and former presidents.
Speaker 2: Look, it's one thing to take a Bullet's another thing
Speaker 2: to sprain an ankle, Caleb, And we should point out
Speaker 2: that Secret Service agents and government snipers have no problem
Speaker 2: guarding the White House, where Joe Biden incidentally resides. Have
Speaker 2: a look at this image.
Speaker 4: Check out.
Speaker 6: Slope on that guy is basically he's what is it
Speaker 6: hang gliding at this point?
Speaker 5: What's the one where you like.
Speaker 2: Literally free falling? Basically, yes, that that.
Speaker 7: Should not be allowed, but we shouldn't talk about it
Speaker 7: too much because they might actually go and now flatten
Speaker 7: all the roofs on the White House and turn it
Speaker 7: into an architecture.
Speaker 2: Can you believe this Kimberly cheetool though, I mean, she
Speaker 2: oversees the biggest stuff up in probably our lifetime, refuses
Speaker 2: to quit and then trots out such ridiculous excuses as well,
Speaker 2: it was all about workplace health.
Speaker 1: I know, it is ridiculous.
Speaker 7: And again it opens up this question about whether or
Speaker 7: not it was a quote unquote inside job.
Speaker 1: Knowledge of what was going to.
Speaker 7: Happen, because I look to sit there with a straight
Speaker 7: face and say, we couldn't send anyone up on that
Speaker 7: roof because it had a slope on it. Meanwhile, they
Speaker 7: were on the other roof over the other side that
Speaker 7: did have a slope on it.
Speaker 1: We just left the one roof available that would.
Speaker 7: Give someone a direct line of sight to the President
Speaker 7: that was behind the crowd, so that the crowd.
Speaker 1: Couldn't see that he was there.
Speaker 7: It all just sounds too perfect, right, And a Republican
Speaker 7: representative for Florida, Corey Mills, who himself is a former sniper,
Speaker 7: has been.
Speaker 1: Raising exactly this question.
Speaker 7: He has it in the back of his head that
Speaker 7: perhaps there was something deliberate going on here, but he's
Speaker 7: a bit scared to raise it.
Speaker 8: I have a very difficult time not leaning myself towards
Speaker 8: this was intentional as opposed to fecklessness.
Speaker 5: Wait, talk to me about that.
Speaker 9: I actually heard you say this right the day after
Speaker 9: which I wanted to ask you about what do you
Speaker 9: mean intentional? You know, I mean an intentional failure on
Speaker 9: the part of.
Speaker 8: No, I wouldn't say an intentional failure on the part
Speaker 8: of but I got to just you know, I sit
Speaker 8: here and I scratch my head, and you don't want
Speaker 8: to be the conspiracist.
Speaker 2: You don't want to be the.
Speaker 9: I'm telling you because that's what it's leaning to.
Speaker 8: No, I know, and that's the issues that you walk
Speaker 8: this fine balance of you're not trying to be a conspiracist,
Speaker 8: but you look as you go how could this have gone?
Speaker 9: So? But it's one thing if someone on the street
Speaker 9: says it, it's not I mean you Cormill's member of Congress,
Speaker 9: former sniper. You saying it, I mean, it makes my
Speaker 9: eyebrows go up.
Speaker 7: I didn't actually see her eyebrows go up, and that
Speaker 7: clip to me perfectly honest. Maybe she's had botox, but
Speaker 7: but you know, she says right at the end, she
Speaker 7: lets the game away a former sniper.
Speaker 1: I mean, when a former sniper is.
Speaker 7: Asking those questions, maybe we should pay a little bit
Speaker 7: of attention.
Speaker 6: Yeah, he said he's done thousands of advanced teams. He's
Speaker 6: done thousands of these. He's the sniper. He said he's
Speaker 6: done it thousands of times himself. So this guy knows
Speaker 6: what he's talking about. And the prevailing question is, so
Speaker 6: we knew that the cops knew he was there. One
Speaker 6: of them even talked to him. We knew that the
Speaker 6: Secret Service had been alerted by the cops that they
Speaker 6: were there, and this sniper was well within their scope.
Speaker 6: They knew he was there too. Nothing was done to
Speaker 6: neutralize the threat. You'd think the least you could do
Speaker 6: in that situation is get Donald Trump off stage. You
Speaker 6: know that this guy's an imminent threat. You know where
Speaker 6: he used, He's got a direct.
Speaker 5: Line of sight. He is in perfect position.
Speaker 6: Andy has a rifle with a scope attached, so you
Speaker 6: know what he's there to do. The very least you
Speaker 6: can do is not leave the president a sitting duck
Speaker 6: on the stage, and that is what they did.
Speaker 5: Also, does someone want to explain to.
Speaker 6: Me why in the ten days before this shooting occurred
Speaker 6: Donald J. Trump's truth social stocks were bet against like
Speaker 6: you wouldn't believe.
Speaker 5: Check out this graph. They skyrocketed.
Speaker 6: The shorts on this stock skyrocketed the week before the hit.
Speaker 6: Shorts went from seven million to fifteen million between July
Speaker 6: first and July twelfth, meaning will certainly strongly suggesting people
Speaker 6: or large organizations were predicting that by Monday the stock
Speaker 6: would plummet, something that would have undoubtedly happened had Trump
Speaker 6: died in Pennsylvania.
Speaker 5: So again, another very big question to be asking.
Speaker 6: Ourselves, since we know, hey, follow the money and you
Speaker 6: usually find some pretty good answers, is who knew who
Speaker 6: knew to short those stocks and why did they do so.
Speaker 6: This reminds me of the day before nine to eleven,
Speaker 6: when investors were tipped off and bet against United Airlines
Speaker 6: and American Airlines, the two biggest, most successful airlines in America.
Speaker 5: Their stocks just plummeted. Why how did these people know?
Speaker 6: And an investigation found out who had, in fact obviously
Speaker 6: known something and put out a well placed newsletter in
Speaker 6: time for investors to be able to do this to
Speaker 6: miraculously bet against these two major airlines the day before,
Speaker 6: because obviously they took a major hit post nine to eleven.
Speaker 6: I just think this is beyond conspiracy theory, Congressman Cory.
Speaker 5: Anyone who can.
Speaker 6: Just simply look at the facts at this point has
Speaker 6: to know this guy can't have been acting alone.
Speaker 5: It's literally impossible.
Speaker 6: And the narrative that people are being asked to believe
Speaker 6: that this twenty year old with no history of political
Speaker 6: extremism or extremism of any kind, actually could scale the
Speaker 6: roof with a rifle, take a shot unintercepted by anyone,
Speaker 6: endserved everything observed by everyone, and the only political thing
Speaker 6: he'd ever done in his entire life was some weeks
Speaker 6: before register as a Republican, and we're supposed to believe
Speaker 6: that this guy was just some radicalized political nutjob. I'm sorry,
Speaker 6: there's a lot of things that aren't adding up here,
Speaker 6: including why they took the kill shot on this guy
Speaker 6: when they could have easily before he shot at anyone,
Speaker 6: simply taken one of his arms out.
Speaker 5: He wouldn't have been.
Speaker 6: Able to take a shot, then neutralize the threat, and
Speaker 6: then we could have heard from him what the heck
Speaker 6: was going on, unless, of course, whoever was really behind it,
Speaker 6: if we're rolling with this theory, took him out much
Speaker 6: like they did Oswald back in the days of JFK.
Speaker 2: Well, it's certainly hard to believe the Secret Service could
Speaker 2: be this inept. New vision continues to surface of them
Speaker 2: trying to deal with the situation. Have a look at this.
Speaker 2: This is the Secret Service and police trying to get
Speaker 2: to where the shooter was. Talk about ham fisted.
Speaker 10: Take it out like you mean.
Speaker 2: Now? Does that look like a crack security team for you?
Speaker 1: Get out, get out the bullbar and.
Speaker 6: Go for now.
Speaker 7: It's just look if you if we did not have
Speaker 7: this stuff actually happened, you couldn't make it upul not
Speaker 7: wish to live in a period of time, in a
Speaker 7: period of history where I could get to sit on
Speaker 7: live television every night and just talk about the weirder
Speaker 7: and weirder and weirder and weirder stuff that keeps happening
Speaker 7: in the US, particularly with relation to this election, and
Speaker 7: of course the president himself, Joe Biden has been asked
Speaker 7: about what's gone on here and his dealings with the
Speaker 7: Secret Service post Trump being shot in the ear, and
Speaker 7: you don't get a lot of confidence out of what
Speaker 7: Biden said about it all, either because he was asked
Speaker 7: in an interview until this point. Of course, Cheatle has
Speaker 7: now done an interview interview, but she hadn't when Biden
Speaker 7: was interviewed and he was asked, why haven't we heard
Speaker 7: publicly from Cheatle and.
Speaker 1: The Secret Service?
Speaker 7: But also more specifically, have you spoken to Cheatle? Pay
Speaker 7: very close attention here to the person that Biden claims
Speaker 7: he had spoken to side note, it ain't a woman.
Speaker 3: Is it acceptable that you have still not heard at
Speaker 3: least publicly from the Secret Service?
Speaker 2: Directing I've heard Jehan? Have you heard from her publicly?
Speaker 3: Public grafts sat down in a situation room downstairs, Secret Service,
Speaker 3: the FBI and that security agencies, the Homeland Security, all
Speaker 3: the major elements.
Speaker 7: Oh, I've heard from him. I don't think it can
Speaker 7: get him in depth. You were looking at Cheatle or
Speaker 7: speaking to Cheatle on the phone and you notice that
Speaker 7: the woman that was appointed basically by your wife and
Speaker 7: her stuff, and you're not aware.
Speaker 1: That the person leading the Secret Service is a woman.
Speaker 2: Did you notice how the NBC interviewer ran cover for Bodle.
Speaker 1: It's like very corrected.
Speaker 2: To be fair, no one in the Biden White House
Speaker 2: really is sure what a woman is anyway.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and we don't want to assume her gender.
Speaker 6: But the fact that everyone still has their jobs, not
Speaker 6: a single head has rolled, no one has resigned in disgrace.
Speaker 5: He saw them there trying to ram down a fence.
Speaker 6: They had locked themselves out of the very area in
Speaker 6: which security should have been the tightest, and they're like quick,
Speaker 6: got to get to the shooter.
Speaker 5: Just keep ramming the fence.
Speaker 6: There was actually another fence after that one as well,
Speaker 6: and so they had to do it the second time.
Speaker 6: So the Secret Service had literally locked themselves out of
Speaker 6: the red zone, the most the most dangerous zone. I'm
Speaker 6: telling you, the fact that nobody has lost their job already,
Speaker 6: that is that tells you something is very wrong here,
Speaker 6: Something is very very subt.
Speaker 7: I always thought, you know, working as a journalist, that
Speaker 7: my backup option. If I thought that my career might
Speaker 7: be in the toilet was to go to the ABC,
Speaker 7: and then I would have a job for life, because of.
Speaker 5: Course, he can you really think they take you per?
Speaker 7: You just do a JD vance and do a mere
Speaker 7: culper and I've come to the.
Speaker 1: Son.
Speaker 7: I'll go over to the ABC and then I'll have
Speaker 7: a job for life, nothing to worry about. Increasingly, I'm thinking,
Speaker 7: if all this goes up the Crapper, maybe I should
Speaker 7: just go and join the Secret Service, because I.
Speaker 1: Mean it sounds like to shelter over there.
Speaker 2: Anyone could get a job there. So the question remains,
Speaker 2: how on Earth did a twenty year old d weeby
Speaker 2: kid manage to get up onto a rooftop where Secret
Speaker 2: Service agents feared to tread lest they breach workplace health
Speaker 2: and safety and rules. Well, the answer has been supplied.
Speaker 2: He had helped from the Iranians. Apparently. How convenient that
Speaker 2: news has just been dropped that the Biden administration received
Speaker 2: information some weeks ago from a quote human source that
Speaker 2: the Iranians were planning on assassinating Donald Trump. Evidently they
Speaker 2: had warned the Secret Service and Trump's campaign and the
Speaker 2: Secret Service. This is my favorite part of this story.
Speaker 2: They had boosted Trump's security of this terror threat. So
Speaker 2: I ask you, if that was the boosted security, imagine
Speaker 2: what the B team would have been like.
Speaker 1: What was it like before?
Speaker 6: If that's the booster, probably all women, just those women
Speaker 6: fumbling around trying to figure out how to holmster a pisiness.
Speaker 2: Now, of course, back in twenty twenty, Trump had the
Speaker 2: head of the Iranian Islamic Revolution Regard assassinated, So it's
Speaker 2: no secret that the Iranians would love payback on Donald Trump.
Speaker 2: But at the end of this report, conveniently, it says
Speaker 2: there is currently no connection between the Iranian plot and
Speaker 2: to the weekend shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks, according to several
Speaker 2: people briefed on the matter, So at the moment, there's
Speaker 2: no connection, but you know, just keep that as a
Speaker 2: possibility rather than speculate on an inside job.
Speaker 5: First it wasn't so true. Now it's Iran.
Speaker 6: This is the definition, ladies and gentlemen, of escalating quickly.
Speaker 7: But I mean, if it was Iran, they don't need
Speaker 7: to call in some like weak, little weedy, twenty year
Speaker 7: old white boy who looks like he had no friends
Speaker 7: at school. Just in the Hooty's right. I mean they've
Speaker 7: got all these people on speed dial. They fund all
Speaker 7: of them as if he's the bloke they go for.
Speaker 2: We speaking of the Houties, I mean the Secret Service
Speaker 2: could have borrowed a drone that might have helped.
Speaker 1: It could have been helpful.
Speaker 6: I just find it interesting that the headlines are now
Speaker 6: featuring Iran regarding this plot to get rid of Trump,
Speaker 6: when just hours earlier the new VP nominee had said,
Speaker 6: we've got to stop taking it easy on Iran and
Speaker 6: just go in there and let it rip.
Speaker 11: A lot of people recognize that we need to do
Speaker 11: something with Iran, but not these weak little bombing runs.
Speaker 11: If you're going to punch the Iranians, you punch a barrot.
Speaker 11: And that's what he did when he took out some
Speaker 11: of the money. By the way that action, people said
Speaker 11: that it would lead to broad a war, it actually
Speaker 11: brought peace and actually checked the Uranians and slowed them.
Speaker 6: Down a little bit coincidence, I think. Not moving on
Speaker 6: to RFK Junior now, because he has been long since
Speaker 6: a friend of Trump, despite running against him obviously first
Speaker 6: for the DAMS, then as an independent well, Trump obviously
Speaker 6: gave him a call after he'd dodged a bullet quite literally,
Speaker 6: and somehow this entire call was filmed and leaked onto
Speaker 6: the internet. For some strange reason, RFK had President Donald
Speaker 6: Trump on speakerphone and didn't think.
Speaker 5: To shut off filming. Here's a bit of it.
Speaker 1: Could just turned my head to show the jib and
Speaker 1: something wrapped me.
Speaker 3: It sounded like a.
Speaker 6: Giant, like the world's largest measido and it was.
Speaker 1: It was a bullet over you know what?
Speaker 3: Did they call it an AR fifteen or something?
Speaker 6: As a big guy for shame RFK with friends like these,
Speaker 6: who needs enemies. The entirety of the call was leaked
Speaker 6: online and they discussed a great many other.
Speaker 5: Things as well.
Speaker 6: And Trump is such a good friend to RFK that
Speaker 6: he has said on his social network platform because he
Speaker 6: refuses to use any others. Still, in light of what
Speaker 6: is going on in the world today, I believe it
Speaker 6: is imperative that Robert F. Kennedy Junior receives Secret Service
Speaker 6: protection immediately. Given the history of the Kennedy family. This
Speaker 6: is the obvious right thing to do. Because, of course
Speaker 6: RFK has been refused up until this point, despite the
Speaker 6: fact that he's not doing badly in the polls and
Speaker 6: is legitimately running and therefore needs security like everybody else does.
Speaker 6: Trump still went into bat for him after this terrible,
Speaker 6: terrible lead.
Speaker 1: It's extraordinary.
Speaker 7: Look, the first rule of talking to someone on speaker
Speaker 7: phone is that you tell them that they are on speaker.
Speaker 5: Phone, how many other people are in the race thing to.
Speaker 2: Do and also being recorded by a third party right video, because.
Speaker 7: He has said RFK Junior has said that he profusely
Speaker 7: apologizes whatever, that he had a third party videographer in
Speaker 7: the room who was there when he took the phone call,
Speaker 7: and then obviously at some point via someone, that video
Speaker 7: was leaked. Now, if you get a phone call from
Speaker 7: Donald Trump, it's not all that often you get a
Speaker 7: phone call from Donald Trump, particularly just after he's been
Speaker 7: shot in the ear. Not only would you not talk
Speaker 7: to him on speakerphone without letting him know you were
Speaker 7: doing so, you'd pick up the phone and you'd go
Speaker 7: to the next room, wouldn't you Like, you wouldn't stand
Speaker 7: there unless you're trying to impress the guy in front
Speaker 7: of this videographer put Trump on speaker phone and go,
Speaker 7: oh my god.
Speaker 1: Guess who called me?
Speaker 7: It's Donald Trump like it's just a treacherous sort of
Speaker 7: thing to do.
Speaker 1: But it's interesting.
Speaker 7: In this phone call, Trump appears to be courting RFK Jr.
Speaker 7: Asking him in someway or suggesting that he wants him
Speaker 7: to come across to his campaign. He says, I would
Speaker 7: love you to do something, and I think it would
Speaker 7: be I've got to read this in Trump's voice, because
Speaker 7: reading the trun script, it really sounds like Trump.
Speaker 1: He says, I think it would be so good for
Speaker 1: you and so big for you.
Speaker 7: Now what he's doing there effectively saying to RFK Junior,
Speaker 7: look forget about your campaign and running on your own.
Speaker 7: Come and join me and we'll do some good things together.
Speaker 7: Part of me why does Trump want potentially for RFK
Speaker 7: to not run. Is Trump worried that perhaps he could
Speaker 7: bleed votes to RFK Jr.
Speaker 1: And he's trying to neutralize.
Speaker 7: That threat because I would have thought that in all
Speaker 7: likelihood RFK might actually pull some votes away from Biden
Speaker 7: and the Dems, and that that would ultimately play well
Speaker 7: for Trump.
Speaker 1: So I think he's trying to court him. I'm not sure.
Speaker 6: I think he's pulling for both though, because people who
Speaker 6: don't want to vote for Biden, but are also abowt
Speaker 6: never Trump is, RFK gives them a very very He's
Speaker 6: a great third option, and in certain seats that's make
Speaker 6: or break.
Speaker 5: You don't want to split that vote.
Speaker 6: So obviously Trump team would be thinking in certain seats
Speaker 6: that really count if he joins our tribe where over
Speaker 6: the line. If he doesn't, this is going to split
Speaker 6: the vote in a way that could end up being
Speaker 6: very detriminateive.
Speaker 2: It'd also be a great propaganda coup to have RFK decide,
Speaker 2: you know what, I would prefer Donald Trump to be
Speaker 2: president and Joe Biden that The other thing I thought
Speaker 2: about that phone call is Donald Trump shows a good sense.
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't think that league will hurt Trump.
Speaker 2: He knows a good sense of humor. Describing the bullet
Speaker 2: as a giant mosquito. He talks about the fact that
Speaker 2: Joe Biden had called him, and he says to RFK
Speaker 2: that Joe Biden was actually very nice. And so you
Speaker 2: learn from that phone called Donald Trump's not there bagging
Speaker 2: his opponent. He's actually quite gracious. And Trump is very impressive.
Speaker 2: I mean, I think this was the day after he's
Speaker 2: been shot in the side of the head.
Speaker 5: And you can hear him.
Speaker 2: He's in good spirits, played a round of golf, and
Speaker 2: now he's back on the campaign trail doing deals. Here
Speaker 2: is the mass of the deal. So he comes out
Speaker 2: of it quite well.
Speaker 7: But then do we want to go down the conspiracy
Speaker 7: wrote again and say that RFK was in on all
Speaker 7: of it with Trump, and the idea was that the
Speaker 7: call would be leaked because it makes Trump look so good.
Speaker 1: I know, it's a bit fantastic.
Speaker 7: I never know the day, but you never know, You
Speaker 7: really never know, but it is.
Speaker 1: It's interesting.
Speaker 7: You raised the point about how well it would play
Speaker 7: to say that that he's come across and he would
Speaker 7: prefer Trump over Barden, And of course that would play.
Speaker 1: Directly into the selection of J. D.
Speaker 7: Vans as his vice president, who, of course is someone
Speaker 7: who previously had criticized Trump quite heavily. It plays into
Speaker 7: all the people who've been speaking at the Republican National
Speaker 7: Convention this week who've been saying that, you know, we
Speaker 7: voted for Biden in twenty twenty and now we're going
Speaker 7: to vote for Trump in twenty twenty four. To have
Speaker 7: someone who comes from a very famous Democrat family to
Speaker 7: say that they were endorsing Trump would probably be political dynamite.
Speaker 7: Speaking of the Republican National Convention, they got into day
Speaker 7: two today and I have to say, look, they do
Speaker 7: politics in America so much better than we do politics
Speaker 7: in Australia, at least when it comes to the entertainment factor. Right,
Speaker 7: we have the most boring, up and down straight politicians
Speaker 7: in this country. And you might argue that's a good
Speaker 7: thing because it generally means they're a safer pair of hands.
Speaker 7: But because in the US they treat politics like sports,
Speaker 7: you know, state of origin as it is to many
Speaker 7: of you, here is what politics is to a lot
Speaker 7: of Americans. So the entertainment has been rolling thick and
Speaker 7: fast at the RNC this week, and today was no
Speaker 7: exception where they rolled out a montage of Donald Trump's
Speaker 7: famous dance moves. I don't know whether they've done him
Speaker 7: dirty here, so I think it is. It is a
Speaker 7: great shame that Donald Trump does not drink because watching
Speaker 7: him with those dance moves.
Speaker 1: Can you imagine if.
Speaker 7: The bloke got on the source, hit the dance floor
Speaker 7: at the karaoke bar, he would be an absolute man.
Speaker 5: I don't know what you're talking about they're great moves.
Speaker 6: You're twenty I not can't pull something off like that late.
Speaker 1: I can do it as well.
Speaker 5: I'm going to dad shuffle down. He's like, sweet, yeah.
Speaker 1: Good, it's pretty good.
Speaker 5: But he's said the rallies love it well. With the
Speaker 5: y m c A. You're locking in the gave.
Speaker 6: Before the lgbt IQ's are like, oh, maybe that's not.
Speaker 7: Because this that's the thing, right, Like the convention has
Speaker 7: basically been like a rock concert, and in fact.
Speaker 1: They've had a rock band there.
Speaker 7: And you saw in that clip earlier of jd Vance
Speaker 7: when he was talking about Iran, like they've got the
Speaker 7: music going in the background. It's it's just a real
Speaker 7: great background to all of this stuff. Of course, one
Speaker 7: of the other iconic I hate using that word, but
Speaker 7: you know it is kind of iconic, the image of
Speaker 7: Trump coming out on the first day yesterday at.
Speaker 1: The convention with that big old bandage over his ear.
Speaker 7: Well, few of the delegates got in on the fun
Speaker 7: today and rocked up with a few bandages themselves. Have
Speaker 7: looked at these photographs we have here of Arizona, Stacey
Speaker 7: Goodman and Joe Niglia who've rocked up there with the
Speaker 7: bandages on their own ears join him a bit of
Speaker 7: the fun there.
Speaker 1: I mean, we just wouldn't do that.
Speaker 7: Can you imagine going along to a campaign launch for
Speaker 7: the Labor Party or the Liberal Party and getting anything
Speaker 7: near that kind of entertainment?
Speaker 5: Yeah? Yeah?
Speaker 6: Or the guy that we played last night who got
Speaker 6: up to do the benediction and took trumpe blot.
Speaker 5: It's gonna be the best blessing. You're gonna be so blessed.
Speaker 6: Can you imagine someone getting up at say the Labor
Speaker 6: National Conference and speaking in an alban Easy Lish for
Speaker 6: something like everyone would be like, you can't do that.
Speaker 5: But one of my personal highlights from the RNZ on
Speaker 5: day two was this one.
Speaker 6: I don't know who the dude is who's even speaking,
Speaker 6: but nothing prepared me for the last four seconds of
Speaker 6: the video that you're about to see.
Speaker 3: Bottom line to every single thing that's going on in
Speaker 3: this great country today is one thing. We become totally
Speaker 3: unhinged if Donald Trump is not elected in November, that
Speaker 3: chunky boy.
Speaker 5: Has got my vote.
Speaker 6: And I'm not talking about the governor who was speaking.
Speaker 6: I mean who were in Australia would bring along their
Speaker 6: bulldog to just sit next to them while they address
Speaker 6: tens of thousands of people at the Republican National Conference.
Speaker 5: I mean, this boy's in it to win it.
Speaker 2: Look clearly he's a very nervous public speaker, and that
Speaker 2: was his emotional support dog to give him confidence.
Speaker 1: Is he the lieutenant governor?
Speaker 7: Is that what they talks about how America will be
Speaker 7: unhinged if Donald Trump doesn't get elected. But the guys
Speaker 7: pretty unhinged watching a dog standing sitting there on stage
Speaker 7: during a political speech. But again again, I mean that's
Speaker 7: something you would just never get in politics in this country.
Speaker 2: But he rocks with his dog, and our politicians would
Speaker 2: have a bulldog, have a poodle?
Speaker 1: Oh well, that's what.
Speaker 7: What's what's Toto? What's total to one of those brutal
Speaker 7: law whatever the hell they are?
Speaker 1: Albanesi's dog? Is it a poodle? No, it looks a
Speaker 1: bit poodly.
Speaker 7: I don't know.
Speaker 5: It's one of those I don't know he had a dog.
Speaker 5: Now I feel sorry it didn't know Elbow had a dog.
Speaker 1: The planes named after him. Toto won.
Speaker 7: He's always going on a walk of the plane and
Speaker 7: it's the number one thing you want it.
Speaker 1: You want to seem relatable. I've got a dog.
Speaker 9: I'm like you.
Speaker 1: He's like, no, no, no, I'm not going to be relatable.
Speaker 1: I've got a dog. And this dog goes on stage.
Speaker 1: He doesn't go for walks. He sits up here like
Speaker 1: a badass.
Speaker 2: Let's talk about rock music for a moment. Tenacious D
Speaker 2: turns out are not so Tenacious after all. They've canceled
Speaker 2: their entire Australian tour after the uproar over band member
Speaker 2: Kyle Gas calling for another attempt on Donald Trump's life.
Speaker 2: Just in case you haven't seen the vision from their
Speaker 2: concert in Sydney on Monday, Kyle Gas was asked what
Speaker 2: he'd like for his sixty fourth birthday, and here's how
Speaker 2: he replied, Trump next time. So for his birthday, he
Speaker 2: hopes that the next shooter doesn't miss charming stuff. Well today,
Speaker 2: of course they've done a big apology because there's absolute outrage,
Speaker 2: aside from the audience who laughed. But Kyle Gas had
Speaker 2: this to say. He said, I don't condone violence of
Speaker 2: any kind in any form against anyone, which is kind
Speaker 2: of curious since just twenty four hours ago he called
Speaker 2: for renewed violence against Donald Trump. He added I'm incredibly
Speaker 2: sorry for my severe lack of judgment. Liz is calling
Speaker 2: for someone to be assassinated a lack of judgment. That's
Speaker 2: what you would call telling your wife her but doesn't
Speaker 2: look big in those genes. That would be a lack
Speaker 2: of judgment.
Speaker 7: Or James, James Chandon, you said telling your wife that
Speaker 7: who but doesn't look big in the genes would be
Speaker 7: a lack of judgment.
Speaker 1: I thought, no, I said looks no, No, no, you
Speaker 1: said doesn't. Either way, there would be a movie would
Speaker 1: be you would be in trouble.
Speaker 2: Calling for a politician to be assassinated is not a
Speaker 2: lack of judgment. It's not even a severe lack of
Speaker 2: Judgment's a lack of humanity. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Look, I wouldn't say it on a stage.
Speaker 7: I wouldn't say it privately either, but but I tend
Speaker 7: to think, look, he should be allowed to say. I
Speaker 7: don't think you should be drummed out of the country.
Speaker 2: You have never been sitting a few nights talking about
Speaker 2: how the Democrats I have incited this, and now someone
Speaker 2: comes to Sydney says exactly the same, more probably worse
Speaker 2: than most of the Democrats have said. Am we're going
Speaker 2: to defend him.
Speaker 7: No, I'm not defending him. I'm just defending his right
Speaker 7: to say it. I told you I don't agree with
Speaker 7: what he said. I'm just defending his right to say it.
Speaker 7: What has happened here is that they have taken the
Speaker 7: decision to cancel the tour.
Speaker 1: Now that is simply.
Speaker 5: Event. The the buildings that they were going to be
Speaker 5: held in canceled on them.
Speaker 6: So while they come out fay, oh we're canceling the tour,
Speaker 6: it was kind of canceled on them. But this makes
Speaker 6: them look better if as a pr move they just say, oh, well,
Speaker 6: we're canceling it. Jack Black has come out the lead
Speaker 6: singer of the band, if you can even call it
Speaker 6: a band, it sounds terrible and Jack Black can't sing,
Speaker 6: but he's come out saying, oh, I was completely blindsided.
Speaker 1: I was shocked.
Speaker 6: If you know the politics of either of these guys,
Speaker 6: you know that they are talking through their teeth here
Speaker 6: they're saying what must be said, and I dare say
Speaker 6: that they both they both meant it. I mean Jack
Speaker 6: Black did nothing to push back on the night, and
Speaker 6: that was when it counted.
Speaker 5: Obviously, if he'd done a quick oh, this has gone
Speaker 5: too far. We take it back.
Speaker 6: But my question is, when it comes to incitement, etc.
Speaker 6: And so on, where did you draw the line? Because
Speaker 6: we've we played a comic on Monday Night who much
Speaker 6: smaller than Jack Black. She had over eighty thousand followers,
Speaker 6: but she was saying the same and she was posting
Speaker 6: it on her socials. Weeks earlier, we played a clip
Speaker 6: of some actress in Hollywood. He was literally saying, Joe Biden,
Speaker 6: take this guy out. He is the modern day Hitler.
Speaker 5: And if he were Hitler, you.
Speaker 6: Know that you'd take him out if you had a chance,
Speaker 6: take this guy out.
Speaker 5: We played that for you guys weeks ago.
Speaker 6: So my question is there's so many people cracking this
Speaker 6: joke and intimating it in many ways. I mean, here's
Speaker 6: just an everyday lady by the name of Linda Peterson.
Speaker 6: She took to her Facebook to write, Dan, he didn't die, well,
Speaker 6: at least one supporter did. I'll take what I can get.
Speaker 6: My heart goes out to the family of the shooter.
Speaker 6: Know that he died doing what needed to be done.
Speaker 6: Hopefully someone will accomplish the task before we vote.
Speaker 5: So if we're going to start saying.
Speaker 6: Okay, we now deport you from our country because you
Speaker 6: said this line. Where are we drawing the line when
Speaker 6: people all over social media are already echoing these sentiments,
Speaker 6: coming out.
Speaker 5: With them on their own.
Speaker 6: We've heard this kind of rhetoric for years from the Democrats,
Speaker 6: not just saying that he's illegitimate, but from the President
Speaker 6: of the United States Biden, saying.
Speaker 5: He's the greatest threat to democracy.
Speaker 6: This is the end of the world as we know
Speaker 6: it is a rock star standing on stage in Sydney
Speaker 6: where no one's got access to Trump anyway, So.
Speaker 2: We used to look global audience. That video has gone
Speaker 2: all around the world. Five minutes after he said it.
Speaker 2: It's clearly he's calling for someone to be killed. That's illegal.
Speaker 2: He should immediately What about all the comics who have
Speaker 2: done so, they should be prosecuted.
Speaker 6: Okay, so that's a lot of prosecution, Linda put You
Speaker 6: either have laws, Lady mac is onto your is.
Speaker 2: We have laws against incitement and calling for people to
Speaker 2: be killed, or you say, oh no, it's fine as corporated.
Speaker 5: Well, recently ches in Western Sydney apparently there are laws
Speaker 5: on incitement.
Speaker 2: That's a great point.
Speaker 6: So it to me, either we go free slather where
Speaker 6: libertarian central everyone can say whatever the heck they want,
Speaker 6: or there has to be defined rules.
Speaker 5: But this arbitrary type depends on the way you say
Speaker 5: it and in what setting you say it. It just
Speaker 5: it can never work that way.
Speaker 2: I didn't even buy the idea that that was a joke.
Speaker 1: I hope that it wasn't.
Speaker 2: Miss where's the punchline in that it's it's a statement?
Speaker 5: They absolutely mention.
Speaker 7: Yeah, well there's there's not a punchline. There's just an
Speaker 7: ending to it ultimately, which is which is what he wants.
Speaker 7: But look, you know they've canceled.
Speaker 1: They're off out of here.
Speaker 7: I don't think any of us are crying too hard
Speaker 7: about that. Now, before we go to a break, I
Speaker 7: read some great news today, and you know, we're finally
Speaker 7: moving on from all the Trump stuff and the fun
Speaker 7: and frivolity of the r n C. Some even better
Speaker 7: news is that Microsoft and John Deere, two very big companies,
Speaker 7: have decided to clean out their diversity, Equity and Inclusion
Speaker 7: arm so so we do not need them anymore. Microsoft
Speaker 7: has laid off its entire DEI team because now they
Speaker 7: say that it's no longer business critical. Perhaps they've worken
Speaker 7: up over there and worked out that making money.
Speaker 1: Is business critical.
Speaker 7: Longer making money is business critical, or getting involved in
Speaker 7: social politics, perhaps not so much. Microsoft's spokesman Jeff Jones,
Speaker 7: he said.
Speaker 1: That don't worry about it. Nothing that's really changing here.
Speaker 1: He said, our focus on diversity and inclusion.
Speaker 7: Is unwavering, and we are holding firm on our expectations,
Speaker 7: prioritizing accountability and continuing to focus on this work, except,
Speaker 7: of course, that you've just sacked the entire team that
Speaker 7: you hired in order to try and achieve those ins
Speaker 7: perhaps because they were all de Hires themselves weren't doing
Speaker 7: the job that you hired them to do.
Speaker 1: And John Dear, who of course manufactures tractors, is.
Speaker 7: Doing exactly the same thing, And you might ask yourself
Speaker 7: the question why did attractor manufacturer needed DEI team?
Speaker 1: Anyway?
Speaker 7: I mean, I've never walked into a shop and gone,
Speaker 7: can I have the gay tractor?
Speaker 2: Please?
Speaker 7: But they say our customers trust and confidence in us
Speaker 7: are the utmost importance to everyone at John Deere. We
Speaker 7: fully intend to earn it every day and in every
Speaker 7: way we can. Isn't it good to just see that
Speaker 7: a little by little this stuff is starting to fall
Speaker 7: by the wayside because they're realizing, hell were we doing
Speaker 7: in the first.
Speaker 2: Or Microsoft spent one hundred and fifty million dollars on
Speaker 2: diversity equity inclusion since twenty twenty after George Floyd's death,
Speaker 2: and I think someone simply asked, what do we actually
Speaker 2: get for that one hundred and fifty million and no
Speaker 2: one could nominate anything.
Speaker 5: So esg points.
Speaker 2: Indeed, we're going to go to a break when we
Speaker 2: come back to look at what's making news in tomorrow's papers.
Speaker 2: That's coming up in just a second. Welcome back. Well,
Speaker 2: let's look at what's making news in tomorrow's papers. And
Speaker 2: calib the Australian newspaper, have been doing a series of
Speaker 2: articles looking at the Greens policies. It's quite enlightening.
Speaker 7: Indeed they have, and reading some of them, you'd think
Speaker 7: perhaps they'd taken a bullet to the head because here's
Speaker 7: this one Left has called a kneecap the RBA.
Speaker 1: It is just extraordinary.
Speaker 7: The Greens are urging Jim Charmers to muscle up to
Speaker 7: the Reserve Bank and override any decision to lift interest rates.
Speaker 7: In August, in a major attack on the institution's independence,
Speaker 7: with the minor party arguing that cash rate decisions are
Speaker 7: inherently political. Now they may well be correct insofar as
Speaker 7: that cash rate decisions can be inherently political. But what
Speaker 7: the Greens are suggesting here is that the entire point
Speaker 7: of the RBA be dismantled and that the treasurer basically
Speaker 7: starts running the RBA.
Speaker 1: Can you imagine? Can you imagine?
Speaker 7: And look, I have no truck with the RBA and
Speaker 7: its previous governor, Philip Low, who of course famously said
Speaker 7: that you won't get an interest rate rise until twenty
Speaker 7: twenty four. Go and borrow all this money to stimulate
Speaker 7: the economy, which people dutifully did. Then we overheated the economy,
Speaker 7: which Stevie Wonder could have seen coming, and then of
Speaker 7: course we had to raise interest rates to deal with
Speaker 7: that fact and put people through a hell of a
Speaker 7: lot of pain. I've got plenty of criticism of the RBA,
Speaker 7: but when you start saying that the treasurer ought to
Speaker 7: be running it, what you're going to end up in
Speaker 7: is an even worse situation where interest rates will never ever, ever,
Speaker 7: ever ever rise because you don't want to be the
Speaker 7: treasurer who does that and then inflation, I don't know,
Speaker 7: you end up like Zimbabwe where they have one hundred
Speaker 7: billion dollar notes for a load of bread.
Speaker 2: Nick McKim is the Greens finance spokesperson, which doesn't exactly
Speaker 2: fill you with a lot of confidence about what the
Speaker 2: country would look like if the Greens ever had influence.
Speaker 7: Man who wanted to lock up Brad Banducci.
Speaker 2: Exactly well, the man who accused everybody in the chamber
Speaker 2: of being psychopaths because they weren't doing anything about climate change.
Speaker 2: Their other economic policies include no surplus. In fact, they
Speaker 2: say it's disgusting that Australia is running a surplus. A
Speaker 2: super profits tax of course, because if we just tax
Speaker 2: the billionaires everything will be all right. And they want
Speaker 2: to remove funding. Would you believe it from private schools now?
Speaker 6: I just love that their answer to the many problems,
Speaker 6: most of which are created by the government, is to
Speaker 6: give more power to the government. To the front page
Speaker 6: of the Mercury, now shell shock. Here's a weird one
Speaker 6: for you. Exclusive three thousand allegedly illegal harvested Tasmanian bird
Speaker 6: eggs worth half a million dollars seized in global smuggling investigation.
Speaker 6: Federal officials have raided a property north of Hobart and
Speaker 6: seized more than three thousand bird eggs, including some thought
Speaker 6: to be a threatened species, after a Tasmanian man was
Speaker 6: identified as a suspect in a global Wildlife Prime investigation.
Speaker 5: Who knew that birdies had like a swat team of
Speaker 5: their own.
Speaker 6: But this is really interesting, especially after the story that
Speaker 6: we did a couple of weeks ago about the guy
Speaker 6: who was caught smuggling into China.
Speaker 5: Snakes four pants, one hundred and four snakes down his pants,
Speaker 5: and so naturally it looks like this is where this
Speaker 5: guy's struggling his eggs.
Speaker 2: If you're smuggling three thousand eggs in your pants, you'd
Speaker 2: have to walk very you'd walk like Joe Biden.
Speaker 5: I reckon.
Speaker 6: He had to come up with some sort of briefcase
Speaker 6: system in this situation, otherwise the eggs weren't gonna make it.
Speaker 10: Well.
Speaker 7: Look, I mean look, as a man, the idea of
Speaker 7: having one hundred and four snakes in my trousers just
Speaker 7: fills me with existential dread because you can imagine the
Speaker 7: pain if one of them decided to inflict a little
Speaker 7: bit of a bite on you. But clearly what's happening
Speaker 7: here is that there is an overseas market for these birds,
Speaker 7: and so he would then sell the eggs to China
Speaker 7: or wherever it might be at a good premium and
Speaker 7: make a lot of money out of it. Now I
Speaker 7: get that it's potentially an environmental risk to certain parts
Speaker 7: of the world, But part of me thinks, is that
Speaker 7: not a problem for other parts of the world to
Speaker 7: deal with?
Speaker 1: Like if he's managed to get eggs.
Speaker 7: From these birds and then he sells the eggs to
Speaker 7: someone overseas, what genuine damage is it doing to Australia.
Speaker 7: Like sure, if we're saying that there's only two of
Speaker 7: this particular species left, and so their eggs are obviously
Speaker 7: really valuable as a threatened species, because that could be
Speaker 7: the one bird that allows the species to continue propagating.
Speaker 7: But if he's collecting eggs and selling them to someone
Speaker 7: and it's not going to mean that they go extinct,
Speaker 7: I'm kind of struggling. He's running real business here, but
Speaker 7: I'm kind of struggling to see what the issue is.
Speaker 6: To be perfectly honest, I would assume it was more
Speaker 6: of a health safety thing.
Speaker 5: For the birds. How can you properly look after three
Speaker 5: thousand eggs?
Speaker 6: None of the chicks are dying inside apparently keeping them
Speaker 6: at the right temperatures, they're not hatching too soon.
Speaker 5: I don't think you can do that.
Speaker 2: Well, you'd have to look after them to I mean,
Speaker 2: there's no point, you know, taking them to China and
Speaker 2: they're all dead, So you'd have.
Speaker 5: To do well.
Speaker 7: I know, if you've paid this bloke a lot of
Speaker 7: money and your egg's dead on arrival, you're not going
Speaker 7: to be terribly happy.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 5: What are you doing if you haven't sold them before
Speaker 5: it's hatching time?
Speaker 6: Do you just.
Speaker 5: Shove to celebrate they won't survive?
Speaker 2: Well, you just story story, okay.
Speaker 1: Also on the.
Speaker 6: Front page of the MRK, poker back on cards in Tasmania.
Speaker 5: Get ready people.
Speaker 6: Social poker tournaments are back on the table after Finance
Speaker 6: Minister Nick Street issued in order to exempt them from
Speaker 6: the Gaming Control Act. The article goes on to explain
Speaker 6: that in November last year, the Treasurer said that poker
Speaker 6: games or tournaments which charge money to participate.
Speaker 5: Only be organized by casino operators.
Speaker 6: So Tasmanians, if you were enjoying a at home poker
Speaker 6: game with a.
Speaker 5: Pile of friends round the table. Illegal illegal daddy sat
Speaker 5: Daddy's busting down the door.
Speaker 7: I'm just struggling with the concept that in the beginning
Speaker 7: the Tasmanian government was like, if you have your mates
Speaker 7: around for poker on a Wednesday night and you're all
Speaker 7: chucking in money, like you're playing for money, that that
Speaker 7: is illegal. You're running some kind of illegal betting ring.
Speaker 7: I mean, can you imagine how many blokes in their
Speaker 7: sheds in Tasmania have been unwittingly breaking the law for
Speaker 7: the last year, Like it's just a thing that you do.
Speaker 7: We're going to play poker and we'll chuck some money. You,
Speaker 7: my friends are dead set criminals.
Speaker 1: You should have been locked up.
Speaker 7: I mean, god forbid, you met your sixteen year old
Speaker 7: son have a sick of beer at the same time.
Speaker 7: These are hardened criminals they have down there in Tasmania.
Speaker 2: Let's go to the front page of the Adelaide Advertiser.
Speaker 2: Nurse ratchet patrolling hospital corridors rats in the ra says
Speaker 2: The headline asked a rare standing for Royal Adelaide Hospital.
Speaker 2: A rat has been captured scurrying around an office space
Speaker 2: at Royal Adelaide Hospital, prompting warnings from a health boss.
Speaker 2: Mice and rodents are in open areas surrounding the hospital,
Speaker 2: and pest patrols have been ordered daily.
Speaker 6: Now.
Speaker 2: The article goes on to say that there are suspicions
Speaker 2: that with cleaning hours being cut, that's what's led to
Speaker 2: rats in the hospital. I wonder, Liz, if the poor
Speaker 2: thing just got sick of waiting for an ambulance.
Speaker 5: It was like, this ramping is trash. I'm just getting
Speaker 5: straight in there. No. But also, how do you know
Speaker 5: that this wasn't someone's emotional support animal. It's just one
Speaker 5: and it was in the office area. Can you imagine
Speaker 5: how stressed the staff are so it could be a pet.
Speaker 2: It could have been one of the him.
Speaker 5: He looks pretty cute, he looks pretty clean. He looks
Speaker 5: like a rat.
Speaker 1: Something something something tells me, Liz, that's a stockphoto. I
Speaker 1: don't think he's the one that was that's him.
Speaker 7: But I'm just going to go and a limb here
Speaker 7: and say that if your emotional support animal is a rat,
Speaker 7: then you need a lot more than an emotional support
Speaker 7: animal like you should be you should you would be
Speaker 7: taken to the psych ward and assessed what the hell
Speaker 7: are you doing with your emotional support?
Speaker 2: You would need an emotional support animal to help you
Speaker 2: with your emotional support.
Speaker 1: I know, I know, I just going and get over it.
Speaker 7: But the subjects of the story, of course being that
Speaker 7: the cleaning hours have been cut, right, I mean, how
Speaker 7: bad a situation can the South Australian Health system be
Speaker 7: in if they're cutting the cleaning hours. Right, the one
Speaker 7: place you want to go to in the knowledge that
Speaker 7: it is hygieneriz and stafe and sterile and that there
Speaker 7: ain't going to be nothing in there of a danger
Speaker 7: to you is a hospital. And they're like, oh yeah,
Speaker 7: we better cut the cleaning hours at the hospital. They
Speaker 7: should like, I don't care if the cleaners are on
Speaker 7: one hundred grand a year. If that place is spotless,
Speaker 7: it's far better than the alternative.
Speaker 1: So they cut the cleans Now they've got rights in there.
Speaker 2: If the cleaners were represented by the CFMU, they'd be.
Speaker 1: On two exactly. Bring them on.
Speaker 2: We're going to go to a break. When we come
Speaker 2: about a football fan who went early celebrating England's European
Speaker 2: Championship loss, it's in a moment welcome back well. Obviously,
Speaker 2: the R and C conference is on Republican National Convention.
Speaker 2: We've been talking about it, Liz and a lot of reporters.
Speaker 2: They're doing live reports.
Speaker 6: Has it all going for them, proving that not all
Speaker 6: heroes wear cape. Some guy who attended the RNC decided
Speaker 6: to make the most of fake news. CNN also covering
Speaker 6: this proceedings is what he got up to.
Speaker 7: Campaign?
Speaker 5: Knew and when?
Speaker 10: Because I have talked to a number of people who
Speaker 10: have been on the ground for the former president in
Speaker 10: recent days and weeks who had no idea.
Speaker 5: Now.
Speaker 10: One thing to remember is that Donald Trump is a
Speaker 10: very tight knit security team. He has been with the
Speaker 10: c detail for years. He is very clusive.
Speaker 6: Where is the Jeffrey Emstein client les? One of the
Speaker 6: most intelligent questions to ever make it on the CNN.
Speaker 2: The Jaws soundtrack? It was not part of the cn.
Speaker 7: It would be more entertaining if CNN did put tours
Speaker 7: over the top of a lot of their programming. But
Speaker 7: I love it every time something like this happens. One
Speaker 7: of the most obscure ones was the Tasmania election earlier
Speaker 7: this year, and people kept rocking up in different costumes
Speaker 7: behind because they still do it in the tally room
Speaker 7: in Tasmania and people kept rocking up with his son.
Speaker 7: He's on Big Wigs and some bloke rocked that with
Speaker 7: his phone numbers scralled across his shit.
Speaker 1: You know, at least we can have a little bit
Speaker 1: of fun in politics.
Speaker 7: Now before we go, I'm sure you're well aware that
Speaker 7: England once again coughed it up at the Euro's on
Speaker 7: the weekend.
Speaker 1: Well, one bloke by the name of Dan Thomas.
Speaker 7: He was pretty confident that they were going to pull
Speaker 7: it off, so confident that he went and got the
Speaker 7: winning tattoo before that even.
Speaker 1: Played the game.
Speaker 7: You can in the corner of the screen there the
Speaker 7: poor bugger, Oh my god, England Euro twenty twenty four.
Speaker 1: Of course that did not happen.
Speaker 7: Spain pulled it off, as they did of course at
Speaker 7: Wimbledon as well on the weekend. Here is mister Thomas
Speaker 7: himself explaining that despite being such a duffer, he doesn't
Speaker 7: regret it.
Speaker 5: Have you been looking at the tattoo thinking why did
Speaker 5: I do this?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 7: I actually went back into the tattoo studio today because
Speaker 7: they wanted to have a look at it. So yeah,
Speaker 7: a couple of more friends that text me and said
Speaker 7: can you can you come in and have a look
Speaker 7: and we can have a look.
Speaker 2: At it again.
Speaker 1: But yeah, there's a little bit of why did I
Speaker 1: do it?
Speaker 9: But there's definitely no regrets.
Speaker 1: Definitely no regret.
Speaker 6: Only one of those manifesting things where you like, if
Speaker 6: I just think positive and I feel as if we've
Speaker 6: had it, then we will.
Speaker 2: It could be redeemed helpful of the Euro's played it
Speaker 2: like every second.
Speaker 1: Year you're asking that how many on the year on it?
Speaker 2: Didn't he every four years?
Speaker 11: Right?
Speaker 2: So all he needs to do if they win in
Speaker 2: twenty twenty eight, he just changes the four to an eight,
Speaker 2: which would not be even though I could do that.
Speaker 1: Good luck look look him solved.
Speaker 7: At the very least, it's a conversation piece because everyone
Speaker 7: is going to say, mate, what the hell were you
Speaker 7: thinking when you're did you know?
Speaker 5: We didn't?
Speaker 2: We gotta go. That's it from us stick around. Coming
Speaker 2: up right now is the Reader Pennety Show.
