Adam, good to see you, 21 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:06,440 Speaker 3: Thanks for joining me. Let's start with Maverick MP Bob Catter, 22 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 3: who has exploded at a Brisbane Press conference after being 23 00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,800 Speaker 3: asked about his Lebanese heritage. Now, mister Katta had used 24 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 3: this event to argue that migrants in Sydney and Melbourne 25 00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 3: were failing to embrace Ossie culture. And here is his 26 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,679 Speaker 3: exchange with Channel nine reporter Josh Bavis. 27 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:26,560 Speaker 4: If you've got Lebanese heritage yourself. 28 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:30,200 Speaker 6: Oh, Mike, don't say that because that irritates me. And 29 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,400 Speaker 6: I've punch blokes in the mouth for saying that. Don't 30 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,080 Speaker 6: you dare say that? My family have been in this 31 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 6: country for one hundred and forty years, right, so you 32 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,319 Speaker 6: and you say anything like that, I have on many 33 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 6: occasions punch bloods in the mouth. Right, So I'm restraining 34 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 6: myself today. 35 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 5: They're a racist. 36 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 6: You cannot say what you just said without being identified. 37 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 5: As a racist. 38 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 6: Some gentleman, ladies, this man is a racist. Don't listen 39 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:00,680 Speaker 6: to employees. Well, dumbey at the freedom. 40 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 7: That even finished here? 41 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 4: Howdam he didn't hold back? What do you think? Look? 42 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,080 Speaker 7: So look, I think for a long time Bob Catter 43 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 7: has beat an adornment kind of in the Parliament. He's 44 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 7: a very volatile character, somewhat irascible sometimes as we saw there. 45 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 5: Look, I think the basic point he was. 46 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 7: Trying to make is that we need to encourage new 47 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,920 Speaker 7: migrants to assimilate into Australian culture. That's something that he 48 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 7: obviously feels very strongly about. He doesn't like the fact 49 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:32,799 Speaker 7: that he allegedly has Lebanese background of many generations ago. 50 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,239 Speaker 7: He clearly doesn't like to talk about that. On the 51 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 7: other hand, I think it was a bit unfair of 52 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:39,520 Speaker 7: him to call the reporter racist. I don't think the 53 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 7: reporter was making a racist point. But look, this issue 54 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 7: is increasingly volatile, you know, and somewhat divisive. We do 55 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 7: have a huge influx of immigrancy to the country and 56 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 7: I think it's probably fair to say that some of 57 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 7: them don't buy into Australian values. And I think that's 58 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 7: the point that Bob was trying to make, that he 59 00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 7: would like to see more buying into Australian values and 60 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 7: we currently see. 61 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 3: And I think he's absolutely spot on. There's a lot 62 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 3: of people have been brought here with welcome ams, some 63 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 3: who hate us and some who don't want to assimilate, 64 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:08,839 Speaker 3: So I think he's spot on. 65 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 4: Now, look, let's talk about AZO. 66 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,680 Speaker 3: In the situation with Iran, the intelligence agency is actively 67 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 3: now investigating whether an attack on the former Sydney home 68 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 3: of Jewish leader Alex Ripchen was ordered by Iran, a 69 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 3: mid warnings that Tehran could be behind many more anti 70 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 3: Semitic crimes in Australia, in addition to the fire bombings 71 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 3: of the Adas Synagogue and a Kosher cafe in Sydney. 72 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 3: Despite this, we know that the Albanesi government was aware 73 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 3: of Iran's hand in anti Semitic terror attacks in Australia 74 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 3: for months before it finally moved against the regime. But 75 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 3: it also failed to act on calls to list Iran's 76 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 3: Revolutionary Guard Corps as a terror group. Adam Labour's equivocated, 77 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 3: and here we are. Albo says it's up to law enforcement. Well, 78 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 3: I would say, well, hang on, what about leadership. 79 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:55,920 Speaker 7: Yeah, Look, I think it's a fair point. I think, 80 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 7: you know, as these facts come out, I think it's 81 00:03:57,920 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 7: more and more clear that they could have acted earlier 82 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 7: and it's not like this. You know, these are the 83 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 7: first accusations against Iran, I think. In twenty twenty two 84 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 7: and tween twenty three, we also heard from Azio that 85 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 7: there were reports that Iranian authorities were surveilling Iranians in 86 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 7: Australia and acting in various illegal ways. So I think 87 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:18,479 Speaker 7: there was a lot of evidence there they could have 88 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:20,599 Speaker 7: acted sooner. But look, I think credit to the government 89 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:22,800 Speaker 7: for booting out the ambassador. I think that was the 90 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,719 Speaker 7: right decision. I mean, it's a fairly extreme decision. In 91 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,719 Speaker 7: the diplomatic world, it doesn't happen very often, but I 92 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:30,359 Speaker 7: think it's justified in this case. 93 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 5: You know, but I can. 94 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:33,840 Speaker 7: Understand, you know, the anger and the Jewish community at 95 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 7: the government over this, and just how long it's you know, 96 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 7: it's taken to react. I think, you know, if there's 97 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,599 Speaker 7: any kind of silver lining to this at all, and 98 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 7: of course it's all absolutely horrible, it's just that these 99 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 7: events were not seemingly homegrown. They were orchestrated by a 100 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 7: foreign power which was acting illegally in Australia. 101 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 5: And you know that is that I suppose. 102 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,279 Speaker 7: You know, because there have a whole range of laws 103 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 7: in Australia past, various crackdowns on free speech in Victoria 104 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 7: and New South Wales in the wake of the Bollings. 105 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 7: But now we know more it was actually orchestrated by 106 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 7: Iran So so you know, maybe we could look back 107 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 7: at this legislation that we've since passed. 108 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:10,479 Speaker 4: Yeah, look, that's that's a fair point. 109 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 3: Now, there's been a lot of confusion about whether Defense 110 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 3: Minister Richard Miles had a formal meeting with his US 111 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 3: counterpart Pete HeiG Seth. Miles's office published an Instagram post 112 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,600 Speaker 3: showing the two of them together alongside the US Vice 113 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 3: President JD. 114 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 4: Varnce, but a US. 115 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,480 Speaker 3: Official soon after said that we can confirm that there 116 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 3: was no meeting. 117 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 4: It was a happenstance encounter. 118 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 3: And now the chief Pentagon spokesperson, Sean Parnell has told 119 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 3: The Guardian that the encounter was in fact a meeting, 120 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 3: walking back that previous statement and confirming it was coordinated 121 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 3: in advance. Adam, look, I'm so confused here. I don't 122 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,840 Speaker 3: know what on earth is going on? Says what, But 123 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 3: you know, it just goes to the point that if 124 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 3: there was a meeting, he gets a meeting, but Donald 125 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 3: Trump still can't get a meeting with the US president 126 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 3: at the Abez starry A. 127 00:05:56,279 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 7: Certainly, this this suggests to me that there's at least 128 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,720 Speaker 7: some elements in the US administration that don't like Australia 129 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 7: very much. 130 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 4: At the moment. 131 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:06,479 Speaker 7: I mean, it was quite pointed to issue that statement 132 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 7: that there was no meeting, because it was so humiliating 133 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 7: for the deputy Prime Minister, who obviously had gone all 134 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:15,160 Speaker 7: the way to Washington to see the Defense Secretary and 135 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 7: you know he saw him for a photo op, it seemed, 136 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 7: but it was a pretty marginal meeting if there was one. 137 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 7: And you know, I think this just reflects on some 138 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 7: desperation I would say with the Albertazi government at the 139 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 7: moment to shore up their relationship with the Trump administration. 140 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 7: I think they're getting a lot of media pressure over 141 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 7: the issue, and quite justifiably, I would say, I mean, 142 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 7: there's still been no meeting with the US President from 143 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,280 Speaker 7: the Australian prime minists with the Australian Prime ministruction say, 144 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:43,600 Speaker 7: and he's practically met with all of the other G 145 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 7: twenty leaders. 146 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 5: I understand. 147 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,599 Speaker 7: There's only a handful of countries where the head of 148 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 7: state has not met has not met the US president, 149 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:52,160 Speaker 7: and we are one of those, and yet we're supposed 150 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 7: to be the top ally of the United States. 151 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 5: That is rather embarrassing. 152 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:57,840 Speaker 4: I would say, it's completely embarrassing. 153 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 3: As more time goes on, it just gets worse now 154 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 3: to the bush summer in Woggle Wogga. It blew up 155 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:06,279 Speaker 3: yesterday as Nationals MP Barnaby Joyce clashed with Clean Energy 156 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 3: Council spokesperson Chris o'keef in a fiery debate. 157 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 4: Here's how it went down. 158 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 7: What beach in Sydney do you want an intermitted power 159 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 7: breathing off? 160 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 8: I mean, if it's so virtuous, why can't you have 161 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:18,760 Speaker 8: them on on North edd or Middle Harbor? 162 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 7: Why do you have to put your filth in our background? 163 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 9: Let me ask you that seriously, is there a reason 164 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 9: we can't have them off Bondo Beach? 165 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 10: Talk about offshore, the issue of bond. 166 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 11: This is a resources industry and you are looking for 167 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 11: resource and wind is the resource. 168 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 12: And in regional Australia we have an abundance of sun 169 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 12: and a bundy that. 170 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 10: It doesn't shine in Sydney, the wind doesn't blow, and 171 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 10: why how don't you. 172 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 5: Go off Sydney? 173 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 2: But there is no proposal because why. 174 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 10: Don't you just transmission Let's just talk about it biocraphy, 175 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 10: you talk about it because overwhelming off the beach, you're 176 00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,280 Speaker 10: worried about your furf around you virtue. 177 00:07:58,440 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 2: Okay, we're not getting anywhere of this. 178 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 4: Adam Barbie Joyce is speaking for the regions. 179 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 3: They're the ones suffering from this net zero really is 180 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 3: bad to see. 181 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 4: I mean, do you think he's right? 182 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 7: Yeah, Look, I think he is right. And I think 183 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 7: one of the great virtues of this push summit, I 184 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 7: might say, is that people in the cities are getting 185 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 7: to understand and getting to learn about the challenges that 186 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 7: are being faced by various farmers from new legislation, from 187 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 7: the rollout of wind and solar panels, etc. And I 188 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 7: think on this issue he's absolutely right. It's also worth 189 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 7: pointing out that Chris o'kief is now a paid lobbyist, 190 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 7: whereas Barnaby Joyce is a politician who is paid by 191 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,199 Speaker 7: the taxpayer. So that makes one far more independent, I 192 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 7: would say, than the other. So just in terms of 193 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 7: these arguments, if you're a viewer out there and you're wondering, 194 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:41,559 Speaker 7: you know who should I believe here, Well, you should 195 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 7: probably believe the independent person, not the person who is 196 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 7: paid by the wind industry to make those arguments. But 197 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 7: you know, there are serious challenges at the moment being 198 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 7: faced by farmers in Victoria, for instance, the Parliament just 199 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 7: this week, I believe was about to pass a law 200 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 7: that will mean that essentially wind turbines can be installed 201 00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 7: on farms where the farmers don't even want them. Mean, 202 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 7: that could be a slight simplification, but this is what's 203 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 7: happening around the country, and you know, it's very devastating 204 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 7: for the regions. I think that they've had enough. 205 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, they absolutely have have had enough of you know, 206 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,200 Speaker 3: people tearing up the land, all in the name of 207 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 3: climate change. Now, Liberal Senator Linda Reynolds has been vindicated 208 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 3: after the WA Supreme Court found posts by former staffer 209 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 3: Britney Higgins made about her word defamatory, awarding damages of 210 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,560 Speaker 3: three hundred and fifteen thousand plus twenty six thousand in interest, 211 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 3: and the cost is still to be determined. Britney Higgins 212 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 3: has posted, I accept that Linda reynolds feelings were hurt 213 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:33,719 Speaker 3: by these events and I'm sorry for that. I wish 214 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 3: her well into the future. Adam, I've got to say, 215 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 3: Linda Reynolds had nothing to lose here. She spent a 216 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 3: lot of money, a lot of time, four years actually 217 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:42,840 Speaker 3: clearing her name and she got it. 218 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:46,440 Speaker 7: Yes, no, look it's great and you know a full 219 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 7: credit to her. I mean, she took a big financial risk. 220 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 7: I think she had to read mortgage a house and 221 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 7: you know it's paid off for her. You know, it's 222 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:54,599 Speaker 7: been shown that she effectively did nothing wrong and I 223 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,160 Speaker 7: think the decision makes makes Britney Higgins, you know, look 224 00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:00,680 Speaker 7: pretty bad. I would say, although that that said, she 225 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 7: did issue fairly gracious statement there that you just read out, 226 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 7: so I think that is creditable. But look the whole 227 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,080 Speaker 7: you know, let's just hope that this is the last 228 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 7: chapter of this you know, very sorry sordid saga in 229 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:15,320 Speaker 7: Australian political history. It's really blown up in everyone's face. 230 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 7: As I would say, you know, this was the high 231 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 7: point of the Me too movement back in twenty nineteen. 232 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 7: There was a shocking allegation which I'm not sure has 233 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:23,559 Speaker 7: ever been proved in a court. 234 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 5: I don't think it has. 235 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 7: But nevertheless, a shocking allegation was made, you know, about 236 00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:30,080 Speaker 7: what happened to Britney Higgins back in twenty nineteen, and 237 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 7: of course politics was injected into it, and then it 238 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,840 Speaker 7: just became an absolute disaster for the courts, for the 239 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,679 Speaker 7: political class, for the media class. Everyone effectively came out 240 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,440 Speaker 7: of this looking absolutely terrible, and I think there are 241 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 7: lessons there. And look, I wish Britney Higgins, well I 242 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 7: don't know her, but you know it's been a pretty 243 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 7: crushing time for her, I would say. 244 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, and every single person involved in this, their lives 245 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 3: have been destroyed and ripped up somehow. It's been like 246 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,240 Speaker 3: a spider web. So yeah, look, hopefully this is the 247 00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 3: end of this long sorry saga. Adam Crichton, great to see, 248 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:00,679 Speaker 3: Thanks so much for your time. 249 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 7: Thanks very much. 250 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 3: Well, the ABC seemingly does not want to talk about 251 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,680 Speaker 3: big Australia getting bigger. Now we know more than one 252 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 3: million migrants have come into this country since Labor was elected, 253 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 3: and the records keep racking up. This week, two GB 254 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 3: hosts Ben Forden reported that fifteen. 255 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 4: Hundred migrants are coming into the country every. 256 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 3: Day, but ABC's Media Watch disagreed, claiming they'd spoken to 257 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 3: the experts who assured them that rather than being overwhelmed 258 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 3: by migrants, in fact we're getting fewer. 259 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 9: Where did the fifteen hundred a day figure come from? 260 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:40,599 Speaker 9: Best we can see, it came courtesy of the Institute 261 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 9: of Public Affairs, a conservative think tank, which eleven days 262 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 9: ago warned Australia's economy was being pummeled by excessive migration, 263 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 9: all on the basis of data published by the Australian 264 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:58,439 Speaker 9: Bureau Statistics. But most inconvenient for the media was this 265 00:11:58,520 --> 00:11:59,959 Speaker 9: little disclaimer from the. 266 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:04,080 Speaker 13: This data does not reflect the official ABS definition of 267 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:09,199 Speaker 13: migration and may lead to inaccurate interpretations and should not 268 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 13: be used as a measure of overseas migration. 269 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:16,280 Speaker 3: But as respected economist Leith van Onslan points out, the 270 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 3: Australian Bureau of Statistics attempted censorship of the migration debate 271 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 3: receives support from ABC's Media Watch, which attacked so called 272 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 3: right wing media outlets for raising alarm at the astronomical 273 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 3: numbers of net migrants landing in Australia, which are higher 274 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 3: than anything Australia experienced before the pandemic. He went on 275 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:39,040 Speaker 3: to say, the fact remains that the net permanent and 276 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 3: long term arrivals figure was the highest for the first. 277 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 4: Six months of any year in Australian history. 278 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:49,960 Speaker 3: Joining me now is journalist and author Kel Richards Kel, Nice. 279 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:50,480 Speaker 4: To see you again. 280 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 3: Why do you think that the abcage is so scared 281 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 3: to talk about Big Australia getting bigger. 282 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 14: Well, you've got a bear in mind. The HEBC now 283 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:01,560 Speaker 14: has an ideological position. They did get to the point 284 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 14: of saying to their staff you can express opinions and 285 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 14: their public servants and public servants are buy and large 286 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,319 Speaker 14: left wing, so they express left wing opinions. The problem 287 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,680 Speaker 14: is if you go down the left wing road, it's 288 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 14: a package. You have to take everything in the package. 289 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,200 Speaker 14: And if the package says no, no, Australia has to 290 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 14: get bigger and we have to take all these people 291 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:25,560 Speaker 14: from overseas because for whatever reason, then you have to 292 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:29,520 Speaker 14: say that it's part of the package. It reminds me 293 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,439 Speaker 14: a bit of how they vote in left wing factions. 294 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,440 Speaker 14: In the ALP, they use a show and tell method. 295 00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:37,439 Speaker 14: That is, you write your vote on a bit of 296 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,320 Speaker 14: paper and fold it up, but then you show it 297 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 14: to the factional leader before you put it in the 298 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 14: ballot box. The left works like that. The left works 299 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 14: on this is the package and everyone has to back 300 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:50,079 Speaker 14: the package. That's what's happened in the ABC. The package 301 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 14: includes because we've got a government which wants a lot 302 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 14: of people coming in, because that bumps up GDP because 303 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 14: they want that. Therefore they've got it doesn't matter what 304 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:02,840 Speaker 14: the facts are. There's a dispute about is the government 305 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 14: leaning on the Australium Bureau Statistics in order to get 306 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 14: them to hose down the figures? Is this an attempt 307 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 14: a censorship. They've decided what their position is and what 308 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:16,080 Speaker 14: side they're on before the whole dispute breaks out. 309 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly. 310 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:18,880 Speaker 3: And I also think that the left don't like to 311 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 3: talk about migration because they perceive it as being racist 312 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 3: or you're a bigot. But the reality is that we 313 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 3: actually need to have a debate and a discussion about 314 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 3: migration in this country. We've got a cost of living 315 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 3: and a housing crisis which has been exacerbated by the 316 00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 3: number of. 317 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 4: Migrants coming into this country. 318 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 3: So it's not racist and you're not a bigot to 319 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,080 Speaker 3: what I talk about it now. Look, the other issue 320 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 3: from Media Watch the other night was they also attacked 321 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 3: my colleague Sharry Markson over her one on one exclusive 322 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 3: interview with Benjamin Netnyahoo, basically claiming that she should have 323 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 3: attacked him more. 324 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 4: I've got to say, Kel, why doesn't. 325 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 3: The ABC fact check itself. I mean, on this they've 326 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 3: been very anti Israel. They certainly show a bias in 327 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 3: their reporting of this Middle Eastern conflict. But it's not 328 00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,160 Speaker 3: just that it's the climate hysteria and they pedal. Why 329 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 3: did they actually do some self reflection. 330 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 14: There is no room to do self reflection. When I 331 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 14: worked at the ABC, there was what Maurice Newman, when 332 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 14: he was chairman of the ABC called a group think. 333 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 14: And the group think is if you deviate from this, 334 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:20,760 Speaker 14: you're in trouble. Now. I was there at one stage 335 00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:24,360 Speaker 14: when there was the very early talk about same sex 336 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 14: marriage coming in and I expressed my conservative point of view. 337 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:30,320 Speaker 14: I actually was on the drum once talking about this, 338 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:32,520 Speaker 14: and they never had me back because they found how 339 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 14: conservative I was. But all of my colleagues just looked 340 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:38,560 Speaker 14: at me as if I was strange. There's only one 341 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 14: way to think. We all think like this. That's what 342 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:43,840 Speaker 14: group think is. There's no bits of paper issued, there's 343 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 14: no directives that come out. It is just everyone thinks 344 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 14: the same way. It's in the atmosphere. It's the culture 345 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 14: of the place. So that's what's going on. There is 346 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 14: no room for standing back and doing some critical reflection 347 00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 14: and saying, critically, is there evidence about there is there 348 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 14: any evidence on the other side. Is there a more 349 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 14: nuanced position that could be adopted. There is no space 350 00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 14: to do that, Danika, No, there's not. 351 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 4: And look, the ABC have got so many resources. 352 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 3: They didn't land an interview with Benjamin Etna who and 353 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 3: certainly with the time and the resources they have, they 354 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 3: could have gone through the property hills. 355 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 14: There are exhausted people in Radio National who spend a 356 00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 14: whole week making a fifteen minute radio program. So you 357 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:23,120 Speaker 14: don't push them too hard. 358 00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 4: He don't push them too hard. They can't be put 359 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:25,880 Speaker 4: on edge that much. 360 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 3: Now, look, let's talk about this famine that's been declared. 361 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 3: Here was a United Nations agency saying that there is 362 00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 3: a famine Gaza. 363 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 15: Have a look, be in no doubt that this is 364 00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 15: irrefutable testimony. It is a famine, the Gaza famine. It 365 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 15: is a famine that we could have prevented if we 366 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 15: had been allowed. 367 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 4: Now, that was just for a reference. 368 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:56,280 Speaker 3: That was Tom Fletcher, the UN's emergency relief coordinator, the 369 00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:59,520 Speaker 3: same Tom Fletcher who claimed that fourteen thousand babies would 370 00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 3: die in four eight hours without aid, but he was 371 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,120 Speaker 3: later forced to retract that. So already we're talking that 372 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,439 Speaker 3: there is untrustworthiness there but of course the ABC other 373 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 3: media around the world, they've lacked up this claim. But 374 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:14,879 Speaker 3: Israel says that that reporting nord Israel's humanitarian efforts failed 375 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:17,639 Speaker 3: to mention a drop in the price of oil, sugar, salt, flour, 376 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:21,159 Speaker 3: yeast and chickpeas, and the Foreign Affairs Ministry Director General 377 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 3: Eden Bar Towler's called for a retraction, saying the report 378 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 3: is deeply flawed, our professional gravely missing the standards expected 379 00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:32,199 Speaker 3: from an international body entrusted with such a serious responsibility. 380 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:34,560 Speaker 3: The other issue here cal is that the Hamas run 381 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 3: Gaza Health Ministry says ten more people have died of 382 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 3: malnutrition and starvation in the last twenty four hours. 383 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:42,359 Speaker 4: That's just the exact problem. 384 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:45,760 Speaker 3: We're getting the figures and the information from Hubbas Humas. 385 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 14: Indeed, and I've got to say about Tom Fletcher, I'm 386 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,720 Speaker 14: sure he's a nice man, but anyone who cannot pronounce 387 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 14: him refutable, I'm sorry, has no credibility with me. What 388 00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 14: they're ignoring is the video evidence. We have seen too 389 00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:05,879 Speaker 14: muchvideo evidence. There's been video evidence occasionally parents supposedly bringing 390 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 14: out there under fed children and the parents are clearly 391 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:12,159 Speaker 14: well fed, and there are other siblings who are well fed. 392 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:14,800 Speaker 14: The video evidence is strong, and there was video evidence 393 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:17,919 Speaker 14: of a marketplace. There was a market set up in 394 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 14: the middle of Gaza City, which will shortly be occupied 395 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:23,679 Speaker 14: by the IDF. But in Gaza City there is a market, 396 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:27,440 Speaker 14: a typical Eastern market in the market square. There's food 397 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:30,119 Speaker 14: on the table, people are buying it, and the people 398 00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 14: standing behind the table selling the stuff don't look stuff. 399 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:37,639 Speaker 14: There's too many images the people who are clearly not starving. 400 00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 14: It's the video evidence that really knocks this on the head. 401 00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 1: In the end. 402 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, and there seems to be a real stunning lack 403 00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:45,960 Speaker 3: of curiosity around the world to question what's coming out 404 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 3: of the United Nations, and they've proven themselves very untrustworthy. 405 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,680 Speaker 3: Before we Let You Go veteran broadcast to Sarbra Lane. 406 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 3: She's apparently calling time on her role after a decade 407 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 3: of hosting one of the ABC's flagship radio shows. Now 408 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:01,080 Speaker 3: this is where it gets interesting, because sources told Stein 409 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 3: News that her frustrations center on ABC chairman Kim William's 410 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:07,920 Speaker 3: alleged failure to deliver on his promised radio revolution, which 411 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 3: would include greater investment in radio or do we pay 412 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:13,200 Speaker 3: them a billion dollars a year col and that they 413 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 3: want more money otherwise, that they're walking away. 414 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:18,120 Speaker 14: My heart goes out to Subra Lane, but I think 415 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:22,680 Speaker 14: she's nuts. I am a former compater of am SO 416 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 14: back in the days when it was the flagship program, 417 00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 14: which has been for so long. I compared it for 418 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,000 Speaker 14: two years. I didn't give it up because I didn't 419 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 14: like the management. You don't do that with good broadcasting jobs. 420 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:36,719 Speaker 14: I'm sorry, Sarbra. This is some sort of performance so 421 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 14: that's really odd. The radio revolution was originally the ABC 422 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 14: decided to abolish the radio division and collapse it all 423 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:48,119 Speaker 14: together in something called an audio area, and the audio 424 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 14: area would feed into online because online was going to 425 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:53,439 Speaker 14: be the big future that took over the entire world. 426 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:56,400 Speaker 14: And it happened much more slowly than they expected, so 427 00:19:56,119 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 14: they split the radio division back off again. Now they 428 00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:02,359 Speaker 14: need to work out where they're going with their radio. 429 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:06,400 Speaker 14: It's really hard to justify radio national. It's really hard 430 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 14: to justify almost anything except regional radio. Regional ABC regional 431 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 14: radio is brilliant. How you justify any of the rest 432 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:15,840 Speaker 14: of it, I simply do not know. So they need 433 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 14: to rethink it all properly. It appears not to be happening. 434 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 14: But if you're frustrated about that, you know, I feel 435 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:25,439 Speaker 14: for you. I understand your frustration. But you don't stop 436 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:28,440 Speaker 14: a top job because you're feeling a bit frustrated about 437 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:29,480 Speaker 14: how they're running the place. 438 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:30,639 Speaker 4: You don't do that. 439 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:33,199 Speaker 3: This is a professional in my view as well, I 440 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:34,119 Speaker 3: don't like it either. 441 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 14: Well, I can't say big boys like I'm professional. 442 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 5: I think it's nuts. 443 00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:38,720 Speaker 4: I like nuts. 444 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:41,000 Speaker 3: I think you absolutely summarize it much much better than 445 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 3: I did. Cal Richard's good to see you, Thanks so 446 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:45,480 Speaker 3: much for coming on. Still to come Lefties Losing It 447 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:49,439 Speaker 3: plus devastation in Minnesota after a gunman opened fire on 448 00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 3: a Catholic school.

According to Axius, the total money raised 572 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:12,800 Speaker 3: from the events has been disappointing. And look, really it's 573 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:15,280 Speaker 3: not hard to see. Why shall we take a trip 574 00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:16,359 Speaker 3: down memory lane? 575 00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:20,720 Speaker 19: The children of the community are the children of the community. 576 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:22,920 Speaker 19: You need to get to go and need to be 577 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 19: able to get where you need to go to do 578 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,439 Speaker 19: the work and get home. Talking about the significance of 579 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 19: the passage of time, right, the significance of the passage 580 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:31,960 Speaker 19: of time. 581 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:34,120 Speaker 1: So when you think about it. 582 00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,879 Speaker 19: There is great significance to the passage of time in 583 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:37,880 Speaker 19: terms of what we. 584 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 4: Need to do to see. 585 00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 19: The moment in time in which we exist and are 586 00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:44,080 Speaker 19: a present. 587 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,320 Speaker 3: Oh, John, to tell you what it said, shivers up 588 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 3: my spine every time I see that vision. But look, 589 00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 3: of course this comes as the DNC continues to pay 590 00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 3: off her November campaign expenses, which notched one point five 591 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 3: billion US dollars, and Democrats are rightly frustrated. And now 592 00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 3: she can't even get enough money at fundraisers. What does 593 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 3: it say about Kamala Harris? 594 00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 12: Well, and so something about Kamala Harris, who was a 595 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 12: terrible candidate and the video clips he played remind us 596 00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:24,360 Speaker 12: of how bad she was. She spent one and a 597 00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:28,520 Speaker 12: half billion dollars in just one hundred and seven days, 598 00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:31,160 Speaker 12: wound up in debt, so they tried to pay off 599 00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:34,480 Speaker 12: those campaign debts. But the thing I would say, Denika, 600 00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 12: is that it's not only Kamala Harris. It's the Democratic 601 00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:41,920 Speaker 12: Party across the board that is having a hard time 602 00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:44,960 Speaker 12: raising money. And that's partly because some of the people 603 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:49,960 Speaker 12: who had been big Democratic donors, especially in the tech industries. 604 00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:50,920 Speaker 5: Are holding back. 605 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 12: I'm not sure if they're changing parties or not, but 606 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 12: at least for now, they're not supporting the Democrats. 607 00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:57,880 Speaker 4: No, clearly. 608 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 3: And yeah, she's really struggling to to get money into 609 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 3: the fundraisers. So really speaks volumes about t Kamala Harris. Now, look, 610 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 3: I want to turn to this awful, awful shooting in Minneapolis. 611 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 3: Two children, of course, have been shot dead and another 612 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:14,880 Speaker 3: two are fighting for life after a shooter opened fire 613 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:16,800 Speaker 3: through the windows of a church. 614 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:18,760 Speaker 4: Here's what we know about the shooter. 615 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:23,640 Speaker 2: The coward that shot these victims took his own life 616 00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:27,360 Speaker 2: in the rear of the church. That coward has been 617 00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:32,000 Speaker 2: identified as twenty three year old Robin Westman, no prior 618 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:32,880 Speaker 2: criminal history. 619 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:37,200 Speaker 3: Now, John, we also know that this shooter was trans 620 00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:40,760 Speaker 3: and it's understood their handwritten manifesto suggests that they were 621 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 3: in the midst of a gender identity crisis and had 622 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 3: killed Donald Trump and for the children scrawled on gun magazines. Now, 623 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 3: obviously this is just awful for the families, but a 624 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 3: lot of questions need answering about the shooter and their ideology. 625 00:30:57,200 --> 00:31:01,080 Speaker 12: So, Denika, this is close to my because I used 626 00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:05,280 Speaker 12: to live in the neighborhood where this school Annunciation is located. 627 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 12: If my wife and I hadn't decided to move to 628 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:11,720 Speaker 12: the suburbs, our youngest child would have attended this school, 629 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 12: and so I'm very familiar with it. And this is 630 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:20,240 Speaker 12: another instance of a trans mass shooter. And given the tiny, 631 00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:23,760 Speaker 12: tiny number of trans people, there have been quite a 632 00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 12: few incidents like this, And I think one of the 633 00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:28,920 Speaker 12: things that we need to take a harder look at 634 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:32,680 Speaker 12: is these are people who are seriously mentally ill. If 635 00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:36,480 Speaker 12: you look at the video that this Robert or Robin 636 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:41,200 Speaker 12: whoever it was released, it's completely insane. I mean completely insane, 637 00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 12: and it's hard to understand why no one seems to 638 00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:49,960 Speaker 12: notice until someone actually starts shooting people. And then another 639 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 12: thing I think we need to look at is a 640 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:54,280 Speaker 12: lot of these trans people, and I don't know whether 641 00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 12: it's true of this one or not, but they get 642 00:31:56,680 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 12: injected with powerful drugs as part of the transition, and 643 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 12: I think we should step back and take a very 644 00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:06,760 Speaker 12: hard look at whether these drug therapies may in fact 645 00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 12: be exacerbating preexisting mental illness and maybe inclining some of 646 00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:13,160 Speaker 12: these people to violence. 647 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:16,520 Speaker 3: I think, as well, we've got to look at that 648 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 3: they're being enabled here, because you know, we've got this 649 00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 3: moment here. I want to show you Tim Woles he 650 00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 3: signed a bill to make Minnesota his own state a 651 00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 3: trans refuge state late last year, and only a few 652 00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 3: days ago he spoke about it again. 653 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:31,440 Speaker 4: Have a listen. 654 00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:35,560 Speaker 23: Minnesota ranks the highest per capitable for being a safe 655 00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:43,240 Speaker 23: haven for transgender individuals in Minnesota. And can I just say, 656 00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 23: we can talk about economic growth and feeding children and 657 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:50,600 Speaker 23: growing the economy and creating jobs simultaneously with talking about 658 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 23: everybody's human rights matters, and. 659 00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 21: We shouldn't animalizing that. 660 00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:55,200 Speaker 5: You can evolve. 661 00:32:56,400 --> 00:33:01,040 Speaker 3: John is democratic leadership responsible for fostering this trans and 662 00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:04,400 Speaker 3: woke ideology. I mean, now, this trans person has committed 663 00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 3: such a heinous act and I'm not suggesting that this 664 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:10,000 Speaker 3: happens all the time, but the Democrats have really pushed 665 00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:11,240 Speaker 3: this agenda forward. 666 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:16,640 Speaker 12: DENNI gets unbelievable. You know, usually the victims are not poor, 667 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:20,600 Speaker 12: innocent school children like in this case. Usually the victims 668 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:24,480 Speaker 12: are the trans people themselves, who, instead of getting proper 669 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:29,440 Speaker 12: medical care for a very severe mental illness, get encouraged 670 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:32,440 Speaker 12: sometimes as if this is reality. 671 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:33,760 Speaker 5: And I think you're right. 672 00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:37,240 Speaker 12: I think Democratic politicians like Tim Wallas, my own governor, 673 00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:41,480 Speaker 12: have played a very poor role in this whole situation. 674 00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:44,720 Speaker 3: Now, look, I completely agree with you. It's a sad, 675 00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:47,120 Speaker 3: sad day again in America. But you know, there's so 676 00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 3: many questions that need to be answered. Now, look, let's 677 00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:53,720 Speaker 3: talk crime. The vast majority of Americans see crime is 678 00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:56,400 Speaker 3: a huge issue in the US and approve of Donald 679 00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 3: Trump's handling of it. According to an ap nork pole, 680 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:02,960 Speaker 3: eighty one percent of Americans agree that crime is a 681 00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:07,240 Speaker 3: major issue, including ninety six percent of Republicans, sixty eight 682 00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 3: percent of Democrats, and seventy two percent of independence while 683 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:14,480 Speaker 3: fifty three percent of Americans approve of the methods by 684 00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:17,759 Speaker 3: which Trump is combating crime. You know, John, the left, 685 00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:20,440 Speaker 3: they're all up in arms about this, cracked out, particularly 686 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:25,280 Speaker 3: in Washington, DC. But the reality is America's American America 687 00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:26,000 Speaker 3: wants this. 688 00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:29,560 Speaker 4: This is exactly what America voted for, Daniki. 689 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:33,600 Speaker 12: It is a mystery why democratic politicians in big cities 690 00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 12: will not take strong measures to combat crime. They have 691 00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:41,880 Speaker 12: no cash bail. You know, it's a revolving door. Criminals 692 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:44,240 Speaker 12: get arrested, they put them right back out. 693 00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:45,839 Speaker 5: On the street. It's really appalling. 694 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 12: And the natural consequence of that is sky high violent 695 00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 12: crime rates. 696 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:52,600 Speaker 5: Now in Washington. 697 00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 12: Donald Trump was able to do what he did because 698 00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:57,520 Speaker 12: Washington is a unique jurisdiction. 699 00:34:57,680 --> 00:34:59,240 Speaker 5: It is a federal district. 700 00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:02,279 Speaker 12: It's the only place in America that's not part of 701 00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:06,120 Speaker 12: a state. It is run by the federal government, and therefore, 702 00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:09,279 Speaker 12: by law, Donald Trump had the ability to come in, 703 00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:12,560 Speaker 12: take over the police force, bring in FBI agents, a 704 00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:16,800 Speaker 12: first another federal law enforcement, and bring in the DC 705 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:20,279 Speaker 12: National Guard, which is under his command. And so that 706 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:22,960 Speaker 12: was a unique opportunity for him to come in and 707 00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:28,800 Speaker 12: fight crime. Carjackings are down by eighty seven percent since 708 00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:33,360 Speaker 12: this federal takeover in DC, and so it's very popular. 709 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 12: It's popular with people in DC, and I think it's 710 00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:37,400 Speaker 12: popular with people across the country. 711 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:41,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, and note even the Washington DC mayor Muriel bows 712 00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:43,799 Speaker 3: ashieven praise it given that. Yeah, as you said, that 713 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:48,720 Speaker 3: eighty seven percent reduction in carjackings in just the last 714 00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 3: twenty days alone. 715 00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:52,760 Speaker 4: So the proof is absolutely in the pudding. 716 00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:56,120 Speaker 3: Now, look, I want to talk to you about Alligator Alcatraz, 717 00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:59,800 Speaker 3: the immigration facility of course in the Florida ever Glades 718 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:03,080 Speaker 3: now that will soon have no detainees in it. Officials 719 00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:06,760 Speaker 3: will reportedly shut down that facility after a judge ordered 720 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:08,480 Speaker 3: them to cease operations. 721 00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:11,960 Speaker 4: John, what do you make now of this development? 722 00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:16,000 Speaker 12: Well, the important thing to understand here, Janika, is that 723 00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:20,239 Speaker 12: the basis of that court order was environmental, nothing to 724 00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:24,960 Speaker 12: do with the use of the facility for deportees. It 725 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:29,080 Speaker 12: was that the judge held that certain environmental procedures hadn't 726 00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:33,160 Speaker 12: been complied with. The federal government could appeal that order. 727 00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:36,000 Speaker 12: I'm not sure they're going to. They might just say fine, 728 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:40,240 Speaker 12: They're opening up a number of other deportees centers around 729 00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:44,759 Speaker 12: the country. I don't know that they necessarily need Alligator Alcatras. 730 00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:46,680 Speaker 5: But here's the real point that was going on. 731 00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:52,959 Speaker 12: Anita Danika what they're trying to do is encourage self deportation. 732 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:56,719 Speaker 12: You can't fly ten or fifteen million people out of 733 00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:59,719 Speaker 12: the country. What you've got to do is impress upon 734 00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:02,000 Speaker 12: them that it would be a good idea for them to. 735 00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:04,240 Speaker 5: Leave the same way they came. 736 00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:08,480 Speaker 12: And the administration has done that by publicizing things like 737 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 12: Alligator Alcatraz, and I'm sure that's caused a lot of 738 00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:15,799 Speaker 12: illegal immigrants to self deport and I think that's the 739 00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:16,840 Speaker 12: real idea here. 740 00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:20,040 Speaker 3: Yes, so maybe it actually has had the desired effect 741 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:23,040 Speaker 3: after all. You spot on now, Look, Donald Trump has 742 00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:25,800 Speaker 3: held a White House meeting with former British Prime Minister 743 00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:29,600 Speaker 3: Tony Blair and former Trump Middle East Envoy Jared Kushner 744 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:32,279 Speaker 3: on ending the Gaza War. What do you make of 745 00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:37,080 Speaker 3: Tony Blair being invited to give his views and his 746 00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 3: rationale for ending the Gaza War? 747 00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:43,640 Speaker 5: Denik, I really don't know. 748 00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:46,279 Speaker 12: I mean, I assume he's being brought in because he's 749 00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:50,319 Speaker 12: got a more pro Israel orientation than car Starmer, the 750 00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:55,239 Speaker 12: current Prime minister, who is talking about recognizing a Palestine, 751 00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:58,000 Speaker 12: whatever that is, you know, whatever its borders might be, 752 00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:01,960 Speaker 12: whatever it's government might be. I think that Trump is 753 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:06,240 Speaker 12: trying to help the Israelis, help Benjamin Natanya, who get 754 00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:10,160 Speaker 12: to an appropriate resolution of this Gaza war? And what 755 00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:12,719 Speaker 12: does that mean. It means a resolution that does not 756 00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:17,839 Speaker 12: leave Homas in power in Gaza and does not leave 757 00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:23,040 Speaker 12: Hamas as a viable terrorist organization. I don't think nat 758 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:26,000 Speaker 12: Yaho will settle for anything less, and I don't think 759 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:29,520 Speaker 12: Trump is going to pressure him to accept anything less. 760 00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:30,239 Speaker 18: No. 761 00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:32,239 Speaker 3: Well, look, Trump's been very firm on this from the 762 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:35,600 Speaker 3: very beginning, and obviously those negotiations are still open. 763 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:38,359 Speaker 4: So you're right, Let's let's see what happens here now. 764 00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:42,160 Speaker 3: US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has fired the head of 765 00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:46,440 Speaker 3: the Pentagon's intelligence agency and two other senior military commanders. 766 00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:50,000 Speaker 3: It comes just weeks after the White House rebuked a 767 00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:55,080 Speaker 3: review assessing the impact of American strikes on Iran. John, 768 00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:57,719 Speaker 3: I guess you know what choice did heg Seth have here, 769 00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:02,680 Speaker 3: because the head of the intelligence agency essentially cost doubt 770 00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:05,160 Speaker 3: over the administration's own strikes. 771 00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:10,600 Speaker 12: Yeah, this guy was the head of the Defense Intelligence Agency, 772 00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:12,960 Speaker 12: one of a number of intelligence agencies that we have. 773 00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:14,040 Speaker 5: He was a. 774 00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:18,760 Speaker 12: General named Jeffrey Cruz. And right after those Iranian air strikes. 775 00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:22,160 Speaker 12: You put out this ridiculous intelligence report saying that he 776 00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:24,000 Speaker 12: thought they had done very little damage. 777 00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:24,840 Speaker 5: Now that's absurd. 778 00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:30,120 Speaker 12: It's contradicted by every other assessment by everybody all around 779 00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:34,040 Speaker 12: the world. They did terrific damage. What's going on here 780 00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:39,520 Speaker 12: is that the military bureaucracy and the intelligence bureaucracy have 781 00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:44,520 Speaker 12: both been taken over by woke liberals. And Pete Hagseeth 782 00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:47,600 Speaker 12: knows all about this. He actually wrote a book about it, 783 00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:51,040 Speaker 12: how wokeism was taking over the highest levels of the 784 00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:53,839 Speaker 12: Department of Defense. And that's one of the reasons why 785 00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:57,200 Speaker 12: President Trump made him Secretary of Defense, because Trump wants 786 00:39:57,280 --> 00:40:01,000 Speaker 12: him to clear out this woke dead. These are guys 787 00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:04,080 Speaker 12: who never fought a war, but are they're pursuing these 788 00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:08,040 Speaker 12: liberal DEI policies and so on. So we're going to 789 00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:10,600 Speaker 12: see more of this. There are more people at the 790 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:13,920 Speaker 12: top of the military establishment as well as at the 791 00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:17,640 Speaker 12: top of some of these intelligence agencies who need to go, 792 00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:19,840 Speaker 12: and I think we'll see some more firings. 793 00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:22,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, it wouldn't surprise me at all. 794 00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:24,120 Speaker 3: You can tell that Pete Hegseth is really getting it 795 00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:25,120 Speaker 3: done and clearing. 796 00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:26,799 Speaker 4: Out that department and good on him. 797 00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:29,279 Speaker 3: I say, now, The New York Times has done a 798 00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:34,760 Speaker 3: special investigation into Chinese meddling and influencing campaigns. It's found, quote, 799 00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:38,279 Speaker 3: the Chinese government wields its influence in New York politics 800 00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:42,360 Speaker 3: through diaes a poor organizations that are usually organized around 801 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:46,000 Speaker 3: people from the same village, city, or province in China. 802 00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:48,760 Speaker 3: It goes on to say Chinese diplomats at the country's 803 00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:52,280 Speaker 3: New York consulate on Manhattan's West Side were in constant 804 00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:54,520 Speaker 3: communication with leaders of these groups. 805 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:56,200 Speaker 4: John, how concerning is this. 806 00:40:57,800 --> 00:41:00,799 Speaker 12: It's interesting, Danika, because, as you know, in our life, 807 00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:03,759 Speaker 12: there's been a lot of talk about Russian influence on 808 00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:06,960 Speaker 12: our elections, and that's been way overstated. I think the 809 00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:10,440 Speaker 12: much more serious question is Chinese influence, not just in 810 00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:14,640 Speaker 12: local elections in New York City, but in many other ways. 811 00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:19,400 Speaker 12: We know that the Chinese have heavily influenced American universities 812 00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:22,400 Speaker 12: by giving them a lot of money, which is supposed 813 00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:25,640 Speaker 12: to be reported by law, but often has not been reported. 814 00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:29,560 Speaker 12: That's been really insidious. We know that the Red Chinese 815 00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:33,320 Speaker 12: have placed spies in high places. So for example, Senator 816 00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:38,200 Speaker 12: Dianne Feinstein for years had a driver was with her 817 00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:41,719 Speaker 12: every day, turned out to be a Chinese spy. A 818 00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:46,960 Speaker 12: prominent Democratic congressman had a girlfriend who had almost certainly 819 00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:51,240 Speaker 12: was the Chinese spy. And so we had the Chinese 820 00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:55,400 Speaker 12: spy satellite drifting across the United States during the Biden 821 00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:58,440 Speaker 12: administration and they wouldn't shoot it down. So there's a 822 00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:01,680 Speaker 12: lot of reason to think that China is spying. China 823 00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:07,040 Speaker 12: is exerting political influence. China's trained influenced our academic institutions 824 00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:08,839 Speaker 12: to be friendly two of it. 825 00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:09,920 Speaker 5: And I think we. 826 00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:14,640 Speaker 12: Need a really much broader across the board understanding of 827 00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:17,880 Speaker 12: these efforts and response to those efforts. 828 00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:20,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, I completely agree as you said. 829 00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:23,000 Speaker 3: I mean, normally we think about Russia, but gee, China 830 00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:26,399 Speaker 3: is certainly a worry right now. John Heindereika, it's great 831 00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:28,200 Speaker 3: to catch up with you again. Thank you so much 832 00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:30,560 Speaker 3: for joining us on the show. This evening still to come. 833 00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:34,480 Speaker 3: Meghan Markle responds to backlash over her Netflix series Wait 834 00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:37,759 Speaker 3: Till You Hear what she has to say. Kinsey Schofield 835 00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:49,880 Speaker 3: is up next. Welcome back and joining me now is 836 00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:53,560 Speaker 3: celebrity and royal commentator Kinsey Schofield. Kinsey, good to see you, 837 00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:56,840 Speaker 3: Let's start with Meghan Markle. She's hit out at critics 838 00:42:56,880 --> 00:43:00,040 Speaker 3: of her Netflix cooking show We Love Meghan, and he 839 00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:03,000 Speaker 3: reckons most people actually love the show and. 840 00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:05,319 Speaker 4: The heights are just trying to pay their bills. Have 841 00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:05,800 Speaker 4: a listen. 842 00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:09,120 Speaker 8: I think I knew who I was trying to meet, 843 00:43:10,360 --> 00:43:12,880 Speaker 8: and so if you know your audience, you know your demographic. Well, 844 00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:15,919 Speaker 8: they love the show, and my partners love the show, 845 00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:17,919 Speaker 8: and that's why we have a season two and why 846 00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:21,680 Speaker 8: we have more fun coming. So I think oftentimes the 847 00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:24,400 Speaker 8: negative voices are they saying the negative things and then 848 00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:28,200 Speaker 8: secretly going home and making single skill at spaghetti possibly, 849 00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:30,880 Speaker 8: And that's all right. They're trying to pay their bills, 850 00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:33,120 Speaker 8: and that's for them to sort out if they're comfortable 851 00:43:33,120 --> 00:43:34,640 Speaker 8: doing it at someone else's detriment. 852 00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:37,319 Speaker 3: Kinsey, she's kidding yourself, isn't she. 853 00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:41,000 Speaker 18: I mean, it's a little ironic for Megan Markle to 854 00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:44,480 Speaker 18: dismiss critics as just trying to pay their bills when 855 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:47,520 Speaker 18: much of her own income over the last five years 856 00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:51,520 Speaker 18: has come from Megan criticizing the British royal family. That 857 00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:55,120 Speaker 18: strategy paid her bills too, and that's for her to 858 00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:58,680 Speaker 18: sort out if she's comfortable doing it to Harry's family's detriment. 859 00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:02,879 Speaker 18: Prince Philip Andqueen Elizabeth died feeling under attacked by their 860 00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:06,880 Speaker 18: grandson and his wife. Some call that elder abuse. Harry 861 00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:09,920 Speaker 18: and Meghan might call it paying their bills. So, you know, 862 00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:14,200 Speaker 18: another pr mishap, misfire for miss markle Gosh. 863 00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:15,520 Speaker 4: That's such a good point. You're right. 864 00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:18,319 Speaker 3: I mean that she's built her whole career on criticizing 865 00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:20,880 Speaker 3: people and can't take the heat when it's turned on 866 00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:21,480 Speaker 3: her spot. 867 00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:22,640 Speaker 4: On Now, Kinsey, we. 868 00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:25,200 Speaker 3: Have to talk about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelcey, who've 869 00:44:25,239 --> 00:44:28,080 Speaker 3: just announced their engagement. It's no secret Trump is not 870 00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:30,319 Speaker 3: the biggest fan of the pop star, and I think 871 00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:33,160 Speaker 3: the press maybe would have wanted a harsher reaction from him, 872 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:34,320 Speaker 3: but he kept it civilized. 873 00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:39,560 Speaker 5: Have listen, Well, I wish I'm a lot of love. Yeah, 874 00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:43,080 Speaker 5: I think it's I think he's a great player. 875 00:44:43,239 --> 00:44:45,640 Speaker 7: I think he's a great guy, and I think that 876 00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:46,960 Speaker 7: she's a terrific person. 877 00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:48,520 Speaker 5: So I wish they'm a lot alone. 878 00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:51,640 Speaker 3: So civilized from the President, Kinsey, But I just don't 879 00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:53,120 Speaker 3: know what the big deal about it is. 880 00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:54,239 Speaker 4: Why do people care so. 881 00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:57,719 Speaker 18: Much about their engagement or Trump. I mean, I think 882 00:44:57,719 --> 00:44:59,960 Speaker 18: we care about Trump because of the I hate Taylor 883 00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:03,719 Speaker 18: Swift in all caps truth social posts not too long ago, 884 00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:06,600 Speaker 18: which gave us all you know, a giggle. It is 885 00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:09,440 Speaker 18: a rare moment of restraint from President Trump, and I 886 00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:12,239 Speaker 18: appreciate that he didn't want to overshadow her big day 887 00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:13,040 Speaker 18: with negativity. 888 00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:13,960 Speaker 4: It shows he has a. 889 00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:17,080 Speaker 18: Heart and knows how to read the room. I don't 890 00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:20,279 Speaker 18: care what Taylor's current issues are with him. She has 891 00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:24,240 Speaker 18: to appreciate the fact that a sitting president is congratulating 892 00:45:24,280 --> 00:45:26,120 Speaker 18: her on her happily ever after. 893 00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:27,240 Speaker 4: That's pretty cool. 894 00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:30,480 Speaker 3: I completely agree, especially after she came out so publicly 895 00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:31,680 Speaker 3: back in Kamala Harris. 896 00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:35,480 Speaker 4: So yeah, she's gotta be pleased by that with Trump now. 897 00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:39,120 Speaker 3: Snoop Dogg has slammed woke gender ideology being promoted in 898 00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:42,560 Speaker 3: kids films, explaining that when he took his grandson to 899 00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:45,480 Speaker 3: say the twenty twenty two Disney animated film light Year, 900 00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:48,480 Speaker 3: he struggled to explain how one of the characters had 901 00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:49,279 Speaker 3: two moms have. 902 00:45:49,239 --> 00:45:52,600 Speaker 19: A look my grandson in the middle of a movie 903 00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:55,040 Speaker 19: like Papa Slop, How she have a baby with a 904 00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:56,080 Speaker 19: woman she a woman. 905 00:45:56,719 --> 00:45:59,800 Speaker 5: Uh, I didn't come in for this, just came a 906 00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:01,800 Speaker 5: good dearn movie. 907 00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:01,920 Speaker 4: Now, Kinsey. 908 00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:04,920 Speaker 3: This actually comes a mid debate in Australia surrounding the 909 00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:08,280 Speaker 3: AFL's decision to have Snoop perform at the AFL Grand 910 00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:09,440 Speaker 3: Final over his lyrics. 911 00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:12,080 Speaker 4: But I have to agree with him here listening to. 912 00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:15,000 Speaker 3: Him now, because you know, why should kids be exposed 913 00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:17,120 Speaker 3: to wope gender ideology? 914 00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:21,040 Speaker 18: Yeah, at fifty three and now a grandfather, Snoop admits that, 915 00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:24,080 Speaker 18: you know, he was unprepared for the inevitable questions that 916 00:46:24,160 --> 00:46:27,040 Speaker 18: followed a storyline like this, and his comments reflect what 917 00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:31,320 Speaker 18: many parents and grandparents feel.

I mean, look, I'd say good on the 946 00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:03,160 Speaker 3: crew for doing that, for getting back at her. 947 00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:05,759 Speaker 4: But if she's bored, find a hobby, Ellen, find a 948 00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:06,480 Speaker 4: hobby now. 949 00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:06,640 Speaker 21: Look. 950 00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:10,120 Speaker 3: It's been revealed that beloved music icon Gloria Gainer has 951 00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:13,640 Speaker 3: donated thousands of dollars to MAGA Republicans in recent years, 952 00:48:13,880 --> 00:48:16,560 Speaker 3: and this comes a bit pressure on her from several 953 00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:19,760 Speaker 3: lefties like the views Ana Navarro to decline a Kennedy 954 00:48:19,840 --> 00:48:22,920 Speaker 3: Center on her because they are being awarded by Donald Trump. 955 00:48:23,080 --> 00:48:25,399 Speaker 4: Cansey, The left are so easily triggered, aren't they. I mean, 956 00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:29,319 Speaker 4: if she was a dem donor, they wouldn't care. I 957 00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:31,720 Speaker 4: think Anna Navarro is so jealous. 958 00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:34,040 Speaker 18: The only thing that Anna is likely to win is 959 00:48:34,080 --> 00:48:35,360 Speaker 18: a hot dog eating contest. 960 00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:38,800 Speaker 4: Go get your trophy, Gloria. You survive without the support 961 00:48:38,840 --> 00:48:39,520 Speaker 4: of Anna Navarro. 962 00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:43,120 Speaker 18: And you know what, I don't think that these donations, 963 00:48:44,160 --> 00:48:48,600 Speaker 18: the revelations of the donations, will hurt Gloria's musical legacy, 964 00:48:48,920 --> 00:48:51,400 Speaker 18: but I think that that was likely the objective and 965 00:48:51,480 --> 00:48:54,040 Speaker 18: how pitiful, how sad. I think people are just trying 966 00:48:54,080 --> 00:48:54,759 Speaker 18: to stir the pot. 967 00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:56,480 Speaker 4: I completely agree. 968 00:48:56,520 --> 00:48:59,000 Speaker 3: Before we let you go, Mark Zuckerberg has gifted neighbors 969 00:48:59,080 --> 00:49:02,520 Speaker 3: noise canceling phones to drown out he's one hundred and 970 00:49:02,560 --> 00:49:06,640 Speaker 3: ten million dollar construction spree, and gave him some sparkly 971 00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:09,040 Speaker 3: wine and crispy cream donuts at the same time. 972 00:49:09,160 --> 00:49:10,680 Speaker 4: Kinsey Now. 973 00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:14,479 Speaker 18: One commentator replied, what can the neighbors buy someone that's 974 00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:18,920 Speaker 18: clearly so tone deaf. I mean, some online commentators have 975 00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:22,000 Speaker 18: suggested that this could be a preemptive move in case 976 00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:24,919 Speaker 18: of a lawsuit. I mean, I'm having a hard time 977 00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:27,120 Speaker 18: justifying it, but it's something his lawyer can point to 978 00:49:27,160 --> 00:49:29,680 Speaker 18: as an attempt to be considerate and solve the problem. 979 00:49:30,360 --> 00:49:32,920 Speaker 18: But you know, it's just further proof that Mark Zuckerberg 980 00:49:32,960 --> 00:49:34,560 Speaker 18: doesn't live on the same planet that we do. 981 00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:37,600 Speaker 3: No, he's in a league of his own, I think 982 00:49:37,640 --> 00:49:40,319 Speaker 3: at the moment.
