Speaker 1: On Scolus Oskolia.
Speaker 2: This is the Reader Panalkey Show.
Speaker 3: Good evening and welcome to the Rita Panekey Show. Coming
Speaker 3: up tonight Swedish Doom Goblin. Greta Thumberg is sailing to Gaza.
Speaker 3: We'll discuss that and plenty more with Caroline Marcus.
Speaker 4: The cost of Victoria's renewable.
Speaker 3: Energy plan has been understated by at least sixteen billion.
Speaker 4: Professor Ian Plimer.
Speaker 3: Will tell us more, and the wonderful Shamika Michelle will
Speaker 3: have the latest from the US, including a terrifying domestic
Speaker 3: terror attack in Colorado. Later in the Alkinsy Schofield, we'll
Speaker 3: have all your celebrity and will news, including the latest
Speaker 3: on the ugly Hugh Jackman and Deborah Lee Ferness divorce
Speaker 3: and leftis Losing It has a new YO pronoun do
Speaker 3: you identify as a flow?
Speaker 5: Flow suggests fluidity, movement, change, which can be important symbols
Speaker 5: for gender. All right, now, let's see how to use
Speaker 5: these pronouns in a conversation. And this came so much.
Speaker 5: Have you seen Floria today? Yeah, Iran into floor at
Speaker 5: the library. Earlier today, Flawa was working on Full's presentation
Speaker 5: for tomorrow.
Speaker 3: But first let's have a look at the day's top
Speaker 3: headlines with Sky News senior reporter Caroline Marcus. Caroline, the
Speaker 3: US has made it clear it wants allies to pull
Speaker 3: their weight and increase their defense spending to at least
Speaker 3: three percent of GDPA. US Defense Secretary Pete Hexett has
Speaker 3: met with Deputy Prime Minister Richard Miles and Singapore and
Speaker 3: asked Australia to boost its defense budget. This is something
Speaker 3: that many experts have also called for. But Caroline, it
Speaker 3: would mean tens of billions of extra money going into
Speaker 3: the defense budget. Is that something you can see happening?
Speaker 6: Well, where would that money come from? Rieu?
Speaker 7: The government's already made all these big spending promises in
Speaker 7: order to win the election, and frankly they don't have
Speaker 7: the money to bear.
Speaker 6: But that could be a huge problem for US.
Speaker 7: According to a readout from this meeting in Singapore, Pete
Speaker 7: Hegseth asked his Australian counterpart, Richard Miles, to boost defense
Speaker 7: spending here to three point five percent. That's because the
Speaker 7: US wants it's allies, including Australia, to stop taking it
Speaker 7: for a free ride when it comes to defense spending.
Speaker 7: And expect all the money to be put in from
Speaker 7: the US and not make a fair contribution themselves. Now, look,
Speaker 7: Richard Miles seemed to open to the idea initially. He
Speaker 7: even said that though he would continue the conversation and
Speaker 7: he understood why those that request was being made. But
Speaker 7: our Prime Minister Anthony Alberizi quickly dismissed them and he said, no,
Speaker 7: we will determine our own defense spending, thank you very much.
Speaker 7: So it'll be interesting to see where this leads, because
Speaker 7: in a couple of weeks, mister Albinizi is Judah met
Speaker 7: Ju to meet the US President Donald Trump in Canada
Speaker 7: and he's going to be asking the US to reaffirm
Speaker 7: its commitment to orcus our nuclear submarine deal, as well
Speaker 7: as to lower the tariffs that it's going to put
Speaker 7: on our imports there. So will Australia get its way
Speaker 7: if it's refusing to do what the US is asking
Speaker 7: of it as a friend.
Speaker 3: Well, I'll be speaking to Professor Implymer a little bit
Speaker 3: later about those steel tariffs and how the ub and
Speaker 3: Easy government is negotiating a decent deal for the country.
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's a few things to worry about there.
Speaker 3: Meanwhile, the coalitionist said that it's open to negotiating a
Speaker 3: deal with Labor regarding its proposal to double the tax
Speaker 3: rate on superbalances.
Speaker 4: Of over three million.
Speaker 3: Opposition trutary spokesman Ted O'Brien told The Australian what is
Speaker 3: being put forward really does breach a red line in
Speaker 3: taxing unrealized capital gains. But if Jim Chalmers is prepared
Speaker 3: to be humble for a moment and realize has made
Speaker 3: a mistake and which is to engage with me, my
Speaker 3: door is open.
Speaker 4: Caroline.
Speaker 3: Do you think Charmers is open to negotiating this policy.
Speaker 3: He doesn't need to labor one with a massive landslide.
Speaker 3: They have a mandate and they have the Greens holding
Speaker 3: the balance of power in the Senate.
Speaker 6: Well, that's all very true.
Speaker 7: I mean, look, he could be open to it at
Speaker 7: the moment. This policy as it stands would rake in
Speaker 7: two point three billion dollars initially per year for the government,
Speaker 7: and as we just talked about, they need all the
Speaker 7: money that they can get in order to pay for
Speaker 7: their big spending promises. Now they don't need the coalition supporter.
Speaker 7: As you point out, the Greens hold the balance of
Speaker 7: power in the Senate. But if they were to make
Speaker 7: the deal with the coalition instead and maybe water down
Speaker 7: this policy or add protections like indexing the levels so
Speaker 7: that it doesn't with bracket creep take in more and
Speaker 7: more people on and their super annuation balances, then it
Speaker 7: will be less of a contentious issue going forward. If
Speaker 7: they make the deal with the Greens who want the
Speaker 7: threshold lowered from three million dollars to two million dollars,
Speaker 7: then this stays a hot topic, possibly until the next
Speaker 7: election in another.
Speaker 6: Three years time.
Speaker 3: Well, we've got the Greens wanting the threshold to be lowered.
Speaker 3: Greensley that Larissa Waters told Australian that her party supports
Speaker 3: taxing unrealized capital gains.
Speaker 4: Of course they do.
Speaker 3: The only objection they have is that they want that
Speaker 3: threshold to be lowered to two million dollars Caroline.
Speaker 7: And it sounds like a lot of money, but it
Speaker 7: really won't necessarily be, especially if that's baked in and
Speaker 7: in years time, you know, is an indexed with inflation,
Speaker 7: people could a lot more people could be earning that
Speaker 7: amount of money and having that in their superbalances, so
Speaker 7: it will catch a lot more.
Speaker 6: People in the net.
Speaker 7: It's already seen as an unfair policy by the Opposition
Speaker 7: and many economic experts. Because of the way that the
Speaker 7: policy is structured. That would make it even more unfair,
Speaker 7: you'd have to say. And possibly the most unfair aspect
Speaker 7: of it is it doesn't seem to include politicians like
Speaker 7: the Prime Minister, like many of the ministers, who have
Speaker 7: special benefits attached to their super and their pensions, and
Speaker 7: they wouldn't be personally affected by it, So that's possibly
Speaker 7: the most unfair aspect of it all.
Speaker 3: Absolutely, and there's a fear that they will extend it
Speaker 3: to apply to other asset classes, whether we're talking about
Speaker 3: share portfolios or property or.
Speaker 4: Any number of other assets.
Speaker 3: Meanwhile, Senator James Patterson has admitted to tactical errors Caroline
Speaker 3: within the Coalition's foiled election bit, stating the obvious there.
Speaker 3: He also conceded it was a mistake to oppose Labour's
Speaker 3: income tax cuts at the election, and the Liberals also
Speaker 3: needed to be less antagonistic towards big business and support
Speaker 3: free enterprise. Now, Caroline, I don't know if the Coalition
Speaker 3: get it. I don't think if the Liberal parties still
Speaker 3: get it. They're clinging onto net zero. They're stating absolutely
Speaker 3: captain obvious areas here. Of course they should have supported
Speaker 3: income tax cut. What sort of liberal party stands opposed
Speaker 3: to people keeping more of their own money, money they've earned.
Speaker 7: That's what the core values of the Liberal Party should be,
Speaker 7: that it's for smaller government, for lower taxes. And the
Speaker 7: way that it argued against Labour's policy here made it
Speaker 7: look like they were the party of higher taxing than
Speaker 7: even the Labor Party, which is it's pretty extreme. I mean,
Speaker 7: the thing is that the coalition did offer various incentives
Speaker 7: harving the fuel excise. It offered a one off tax
Speaker 7: offset for people, as well as other incentives when it
Speaker 7: came to property and mortgages, but I think these were
Speaker 7: more complex for voters to understand. Of course, everyone is
Speaker 7: an expert in hindsight, but that is just one thing
Speaker 7: as a liberal party that you can never be seen
Speaker 7: to be against and harrow tax cuts.
Speaker 3: Absolutely, But I don't know if it's being an expert
Speaker 3: in hindsight, because if the Liberal Party actually listened to
Speaker 3: the advice given on Sky News, they wouldn't have made
Speaker 3: these mistakes. These are statements that were made throughout the
Speaker 3: election campaign that were in fact statements that were made
Speaker 3: throughout the year that they were on the wrong track
Speaker 3: and they really needed to make some bold decisions if
Speaker 3: there were any chance of winning, and they listened to
Speaker 3: none of that advice. Now, Carra to a story I
Speaker 3: know we've both covered extensively, and World Boxing has banded
Speaker 3: Olympic gold millists Iman Khalif from the sport, advising the
Speaker 3: Algerian Boxing Federation the Khalif would have to undergo a
Speaker 3: mandatory sex test if Khalif wants to compete in future
Speaker 3: boxing competitions. International Boxing Bodies saying that it has introduced
Speaker 3: the measure following the furor surrounding Khalif winning gold at
Speaker 3: the twenty twenty four Paris Olympics. Caroline, I remember at
Speaker 3: the time there were a lot of people outrage that
Speaker 3: this was even being talked about, but there was quite
Speaker 3: obviously something very wrong.
Speaker 7: Absolutely in this case Imman Khalif and the Taiwanese boxer
Speaker 7: who also won at the Olympics gold medal. They are
Speaker 7: DSD athletes disorders of sex development slightly different from trans
Speaker 7: but it's similar in the sense that they are also
Speaker 7: said to be biologically male. They have x Y chromosomes,
Speaker 7: but they're born with disorders that mean that they during
Speaker 7: They don't go through puberty in exactly the same way,
Speaker 7: but they do go through a male puberty.
Speaker 6: They might just not look male.
Speaker 7: At birth, but there are to test whether you've got
Speaker 7: this disorder, and.
Speaker 6: That's what both of these athletes are said to have.
Speaker 7: Now it's similar to the issue of transgender athletes and
Speaker 7: women's sport because they've both reportedly gone through male puberty.
Speaker 6: They have all the advantages that male.
Speaker 7: Puberty affords you, bigger muscles, bigger heart, greater lung capacity.
Speaker 7: The Italian boxer female boxer Angela Karini, who came up
Speaker 7: against Munk Khalif in the Olympics in the first round,
Speaker 7: gave up after something like forty eight seconds. She said
Speaker 7: she'd never been punched so hard as she had by
Speaker 7: Imunk Khalif. So this is completely a common sense move
Speaker 7: and it's just unfortunate that it's taken this long to
Speaker 7: get here. People were like yourself and and me were
Speaker 7: speaking out during the Olympics and many more people around
Speaker 7: the world, and we were dismissed by the Olympics Committee
Speaker 7: president Thomas Buck who called it a war issue and
Speaker 7: said these are women. Well, if they're women, have the
Speaker 7: very simple gender test, it's a cheek or those swab
Speaker 7: and it will define you as being biologically female and
Speaker 7: that by all means compete.
Speaker 6: But until then, no, thank you.
Speaker 4: Now Swedish doom goblin.
Speaker 3: Greta Thumberg is in a boat and she's heading to Gaza.
Speaker 8: Hello, I am currently standing on the Madeline, the ship
Speaker 8: that on Sunday, June first will attempt to again saale
Speaker 8: towards Gaza and to try to break the siege and
Speaker 8: open up a humanitarian corridor by delivering aid like food
Speaker 8: and medical supplies.
Speaker 3: Carolina, what more can you tell me about this expedition.
Speaker 7: Well, this is the second time Greta Thumberg is hoping
Speaker 7: to jump on a ship. Plan to jump on a
Speaker 7: ship and head out to go where frankly, I hope
Speaker 7: she remains and sees what life is really like, especially
Speaker 7: for women in Gaza. She is on this expedition with
Speaker 7: this group called Freedom Flotilla Coalition. They set off from
Speaker 7: Sicily and Southern Italy. They're hoping to as they say,
Speaker 7: break the Israeli siege on Gaza, deliver aid, raise awareness,
Speaker 7: of the humanitarian crisis there. But of course Greta Thumberg
Speaker 7: only speaks about what she calls the genocide in Gaza
Speaker 7: and the starvation of.
Speaker 6: All these people.
Speaker 7: She never speaks about her mass, about the horror. She
Speaker 7: never puts any context into it, that this is a
Speaker 7: war that was started by a terror organization that has again,
Speaker 7: only days ago, refused to accept a ceasefire deal put
Speaker 7: forward from the US. It's only ever one side with
Speaker 7: her own, only ever propaganda. Apparently she's got tied a
Speaker 7: limit stuff now she's preaching us to us on this.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, Carolina Marcos, thank you so much for your
Speaker 3: time tonight, joining me now is a esteem geologist and author.
Speaker 4: Professor in Plymer.
Speaker 3: Let's start with Victoria reports in the Australian Financial Review
Speaker 3: that the cost of Victoria's renewable energy plan has been
Speaker 3: understated by at least sixty billion, with the total cost
Speaker 3: of households and businesses as a result of the transition
Speaker 3: to renewables said to be more than four times the
Speaker 3: four point three billion figure set out in the state's
Speaker 3: transition roadmap. Ian builds up high already in it seems
Speaker 3: they're only going to get.
Speaker 9: Higher well, it doesn't surprise me. Every time you ask
Speaker 9: LA the government what's again to cost, they can never
Speaker 9: give you the number. Yet they are rapiting on about
Speaker 9: the cost of proposed nuclear using a false number. By
Speaker 9: the way, So the one thing that lay governments can't
Speaker 9: do is to handle the economy. They can take your
Speaker 9: money from you and spend it on all sorts of
Speaker 9: pet projects, but they can't balance the books and run
Speaker 9: an economy. So every time they've been asked the cost
Speaker 9: of a project, they can't give it. So I'm not
Speaker 9: surprised it's a cost overrun.
Speaker 4: But this is some doozy.
Speaker 3: I mean, it's one thing to get the cost wrong
Speaker 3: by say twenty even one hundred percent. We're talking about
Speaker 3: four times that four hundred percent.
Speaker 4: Well, how do you make it stuff up like that?
Speaker 4: That's almost possible to do.
Speaker 9: I would have SAYD any project, you normally have a
Speaker 9: contingency in there, and so if you go beyond that contingency,
Speaker 9: it is a cost overrun. So not only have they
Speaker 9: gone above the contingency, they've just blown this right out.
Speaker 9: Now I don't know how you can do that.
Speaker 4: Now, partly, you can do it if.
Speaker 9: You have a lot of your mates from the unions
Speaker 9: working and overcharging. That's quite normal. But what governments have,
Speaker 9: it's the ability to actually raise revenue through tax. But
Speaker 9: what they never do is cut their costs. And this
Speaker 9: is a classic example of an ideological project that no
Speaker 9: one has costed, no one's looked at the costs, and
Speaker 9: people have thought, oh, yes, r okay, if we run over,
Speaker 9: we can retrieve this money from the poor, bleeding consumer.
Speaker 3: Now we've got two hundred residents of the Victorian town
Speaker 3: of drang and apologies if I mispronounced that it's and
Speaker 3: many of these volunteer firefighters have expressed fears that proposals
Speaker 3: for two lithium ironed battery energy storage systems in the
Speaker 3: area would create an unacceptable fire risk, which has and
Speaker 3: this is an area in that's been ravaged by numerous
Speaker 3: bushfires over the years.
Speaker 4: This isn't an isolated issue.
Speaker 3: There are regional communities across the country with similar fears.
Speaker 9: Well, there've been some huge battery fires around the train
Speaker 9: apps and these batteries you cannot put out a fire
Speaker 9: when you've got a big fire operating, and that's because
Speaker 9: they're a chemical battery and you've basically got to let
Speaker 9: them burn out. Now, during that burning, they produce toxic fumes.
Speaker 9: One of them is hydrofluoric acid. Now where geologists in
Speaker 9: laboratory is we dissolve rocks in hydrofluoric acid. That's how
Speaker 9: strong it is. If you want to etch glass, you
Speaker 9: use hydrofluoric acid. So these battery fires produce extremely toxic chemicals.
Speaker 9: They can't be put out, and if you're in a
Speaker 9: bush fire prone area, they're the trigger from war fires.
Speaker 9: So any CFA member would be better to go down
Speaker 9: the pub rather than to try to put out one
Speaker 9: of these fires.
Speaker 3: Well, hopefully a pub well away from the fire. Judging
Speaker 3: by these chemicals, is the same chemical that would be
Speaker 3: released if an electric car was alive.
Speaker 9: Yes they are, but in the batteries see much much
Speaker 9: bigger and electric car fires. Again, you can't put them out. Now,
Speaker 9: some of these battery buyers can't be put out and
Speaker 9: they just burn out. But sometimes they take a week
Speaker 9: to burn out, during which time you've got no operational
Speaker 9: power systems, during which time you're putting toxic fumes into
Speaker 9: the air, into the soil, and into the waterways. It
Speaker 9: is a really bad idea. We once said, cheap reliable
Speaker 9: electricity without these sort of problems and we've got rid
Speaker 9: of it.
Speaker 4: Yes, it's psych They haven't thought this through.
Speaker 3: Never mind the cost overruns, but just the practicality.
Speaker 9: That's an understatement.
Speaker 4: Haven't thought it through.
Speaker 3: Now Prime Minister Anthony Alberdeasy has given Donald Trump some
Speaker 3: unsolicited advice following the US President's decision to double tariffs
Speaker 3: on Australian steel, lifting the tariff from twenty five percent
Speaker 3: to fifty percent. Labor labeling the move as an inappropriate action.
Speaker 3: That's a Albo's assessment there, and he wasn't done yet.
Speaker 3: He also said it would be an act of economic
Speaker 3: self harm for the United States. I'm sure the President
Speaker 3: of the United States is really appreciating these words of
Speaker 3: wisdom from Anthony Albernezi. Economic advice from the labor prime minister.
Speaker 9: Well, economic advice from someone who has no idea about economics,
Speaker 9: Economic advice from someone who's been in the politics and
Speaker 9: the union movement all their life, compared with that from
Speaker 9: a multi billionaire who's made a lot of money and
Speaker 9: had to watch his pennies, and economic advice from a minnow. Now,
Speaker 9: whatever Australia does, it's not going to affect the economics
Speaker 9: in the US, and tariffs have been around for a
Speaker 9: long period of time. The balance of trade is in
Speaker 9: our favor. I don't know what mister Albin is going
Speaker 9: on about, because people in this country don't care about tariffs.
Speaker 9: The Americans don't care about the tariffs. They're looking at
Speaker 9: bigger things. And to have an economic illiterate trying to argue.
Speaker 4: With someone who's been thinks it would tell you, oh.
Speaker 9: Yes, yes, well that's with tofu as well, you're a
Speaker 9: green that's economically good.
Speaker 4: What of the tariffs?
Speaker 3: The Prime Minister is going to finally have a meeting
Speaker 3: with the President. It's taken some time to get this meeting.
Speaker 3: Now we know President Trump is well aware of things
Speaker 3: that people have said about him over the years, and
Speaker 3: the labor ministers, the Prime Minister himself have been very
Speaker 3: very foolish in saying some things that are really uncharitable,
Speaker 3: and that's putting it kindly. Is that going to come
Speaker 3: back to haunt us when these negotiations happen.
Speaker 9: Well, Trump settle schools and there's been a lot of
Speaker 9: comment about Trump from people who are not very wise,
Speaker 9: and it wouldn't surprise me if Trump gave Albo a
Speaker 9: tongue lashing. He's done it to others. We saw it
Speaker 9: recently from the President of South Africa.
Speaker 3: He's imagine if it pulls in a big TV screen.
Speaker 4: Albert he's not getting that sort of true, but is.
Speaker 9: Well informed, and he does have a number of Australian
Speaker 9: friends and he talks to them, and we have one
Speaker 9: big Australian company, Visy, who are active in the US.
Speaker 9: I'm sure he would talk to the Pratt family. I'm
Speaker 9: sure he would talk to others, and he would be
Speaker 9: well informed by his own staff as well as insiders.
Speaker 9: So it wouldn't surprise me if we saw a wonderful
Speaker 9: bit of television and see a tongue lashing of Elbow.
Speaker 3: I do hope the meeting is televised, but it may
Speaker 3: just be a very quick thing behind closed doors.
Speaker 9: Well, he's got to learn who Elbow is first. He
Speaker 9: doesn't know his name, so he's got a bit of
Speaker 9: catching up to do.
Speaker 4: He does. I think he knows Albow's name.
Speaker 3: I don't know if he knew Peter Dutton's name, so
Speaker 3: that was a little bit sad for Peter Dutton. So
Speaker 3: you think we are in a decent position to get
Speaker 3: a trade deal that's at least better than our trading partners,
Speaker 3: given that we're in a rare position of having a
Speaker 3: deficit with the US.
Speaker 9: We are in fortunate and very rare position, and I
Speaker 9: suspect we could get a good trade deal, but it
Speaker 9: would not be mister Rado, mister Albinizi that could negotiate it.
Speaker 9: Someone like Joe Hockey would be the perfect person to
Speaker 9: do it, or even Anthony Pratt, or even Gina Reinhart.
Speaker 9: These are the people that you get the trade deal
Speaker 9: that we would need because the balance of trade is
Speaker 9: in the US Australia.
Speaker 3: And that is highly unusual. There's only a handful of
Speaker 3: counties in that position. So let's hope for the best.
Speaker 3: Prophecy employment. Thank you so much for your time tonight.
Speaker 4: Thank you still to come.
Speaker 3: Lefties losing it plus a terrifying domestic terror attack rocks
Speaker 3: the state of Colorado, Chamigan Michelle as the details. You're
Speaker 3: watching the Panny his show and it's time for left
Speaker 3: He's losing it and bad news for MSNBC. Their ratings
Speaker 3: were already low, but they have plummeted even further in
Speaker 3: the crucial twenty five to fifty four age demographic. MSNBC
Speaker 3: has seen its ratings plunge forty one percent during prime
Speaker 3: time and thirty four percent across the total broadcast day compared.
Speaker 4: With just a year ago. Now, this is according to
Speaker 4: leaked ratings figures. And I can't imagine why we finished.
Speaker 1: It's bad.
Speaker 6: It's a rare, it's a rare.
Speaker 4: Weback.
Speaker 9: Meanwhile in the back they're like, Okay.
Speaker 10: Come back.
Speaker 4: Why isn't there show a rating?
Speaker 3: It's it's a mystery. And the host has suffered. The
Speaker 3: most humiliating collapse is Jensaki.
Speaker 4: Let's have a look.
Speaker 11: The speeches are getting much more disturbing and much more unhinged.
Speaker 10: And we should all hear it that way.
Speaker 3: Now to CNN, who would have been none too happy
Speaker 3: about airing an interview where a hostage helped by her mask,
Speaker 3: made it clear that the terrorists wanted Kamala Harris to
Speaker 3: win the election.
Speaker 1: Scared of him. Yeah, they wanted two terrorists. We're afraid
Speaker 1: of Trump. Yeah, they wanted Kamala to be chosen. You
Speaker 1: talked to politics with them, Yeah, yeah, yeah, they wanted
Speaker 1: Kamala to be elected. When Trump came into became president. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the way they treated us changed for me personally, this
Speaker 1: is what.
Speaker 12: I think, because they anticipated that a deal would come soon.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and that's when they started giving you more.
Speaker 1: Food exactly, more food. Treated me better, you know, Stop
Speaker 1: cursing me, stop speeding me, spitting on me.
Speaker 3: Now to the Hollywood elite, here are some pearls of
Speaker 3: wisdom from Idris Elba, who thinks he knows how to
Speaker 3: stop knife crime in the UK.
Speaker 4: Let's ban all those pointy kitchen knives.
Speaker 13: The truth is is that kitchen knives are perhaps twenty
Speaker 13: five percent of the knives used in most of the
Speaker 13: terrible crimes. That's one of the stats in the films.
Speaker 13: And those kitchen knives are usually a domestic situation.
Speaker 10: Okay, so kitchen.
Speaker 13: Knives, of course, it's very difficult their domestic knife. I
Speaker 13: do think there is areas of innovation that we can
Speaker 13: do with kitchen knives. I hate to say, not all
Speaker 13: kitchen knives need to have a point on them. That
Speaker 13: sounds like a crazy thing to say, but actually it
Speaker 13: would reduce you know, you can still cut your food
Speaker 13: without the point on the knife, which is an innovative
Speaker 13: way to sort of look at it. And in a
Speaker 13: country in crisis. I'm sorry, but yeah, let's look at that.
Speaker 3: Oh yes, Genu's idea there, maybe we can ban forks. Next,
Speaker 3: now to Dylan Mulvaney his back and this time he's
Speaker 3: promoting fashion label John Paul Gautier. Dylan taking more jobs
Speaker 3: from women. The patriarchy always wins. Now, a lot has
Speaker 3: been said about Democrat appointed activist judges, lawfare, and even
Speaker 3: the term judicial insurrection is starting to gain hold.
Speaker 1: Here is a.
Speaker 3: Judge not talking about constitutional matters, but the importance of
Speaker 3: judges looking like the offenders.
Speaker 4: This is Judge Cassandra Collier Williams.
Speaker 12: I thought that it was important that, especially in criminal cases,
Speaker 12: where when you have people that on one side of
Speaker 12: the bench, they can look at the judge and say, wow,
Speaker 12: she looks like me, then maybe I have a better shot.
Speaker 4: Yep, that's really important.
Speaker 3: By the way, that judge's own son is in jail
Speaker 3: for murder, murdering his wife, shooting her in the head
Speaker 3: three times.
Speaker 4: Let's check it out with brave women's rights warrior Kelly J. Keane.
Speaker 3: She's a great champion of women and she's in the
Speaker 3: US to fight against the excesses of the trans movement,
Speaker 3: But the young woman interviewing her here insists that Kelly J.
Speaker 3: Keen call men trans women.
Speaker 14: A man who calls himself a woman is not one
Speaker 14: that you shouldn't transition to children.
Speaker 2: So how are a trans women infringing onso women's faces?
Speaker 14: So men in women's spaces makes it no longer a
Speaker 14: women's space, So we don't have a right to a
Speaker 14: woman's space if a man is a lad in it?
Speaker 2: Have you ever felt personally on sero for the trans
Speaker 2: women in your presence?
Speaker 14: Have I felt unsafe with man and my presence?
Speaker 6: Yes, I'm a woman.
Speaker 9: Yeah.
Speaker 6: Now, so that would be free speech.
Speaker 14: If you set your false free speech and you're trying
Speaker 14: to please my speech to call a man a man,
Speaker 14: then you wouldn't be for free speech, would you?
Speaker 6: Are you four? Are you for free speech? I guess not?
Speaker 6: Very upsetting.
Speaker 4: And here is Kelly J.
Speaker 3: Kin telling women in burkers those dehumanizing Muslim modesty garments
Speaker 3: to free themselves.
Speaker 14: You gotta love her, Free yourselves, ladies, free your faces,
Speaker 14: free your felves.
Speaker 3: And exciting news, folks. There's a new pronoun in town. Yes,
Speaker 3: it's a flow and flows.
Speaker 4: Here's how you use it.
Speaker 5: This pronoun of the day is flow flows. Remember that
Speaker 5: these pronouns were requested by someone who does currently use
Speaker 5: them or intends to use them in the future. Word
Speaker 5: flow suggests fluidity, movement, change, which can be important symbols
Speaker 5: for genders. All right, now, let's see how to use
Speaker 5: these pronouns in a conversation. And this came so much.
Speaker 5: Have you seen Floor today?
Speaker 10: Yeah?
Speaker 5: I ran into flow at the library earlier today, Flaw
Speaker 5: was working on Flour's presentation for tomorrow. Oh nice, I
Speaker 5: can't mean to ask if Floor needs any.
Speaker 6: Help with it.
Speaker 5: Appreciate that Bill said that it's been really hard to
Speaker 5: handle all by fore self.
Speaker 4: Now to Boulder, Colorado.
Speaker 3: Earlier today the site of an act of terrorism domestic
Speaker 3: terrorism against a pro Israel demonstration. People were set alight,
Speaker 3: with a number of individuals seriously hurt, some with life
Speaker 3: threatening injuries.
Speaker 4: This was among the first clips after the attack.
Speaker 3: In the chaos, you can see people running towards and
Speaker 3: away from the attack, and you can see the alleged attacker,
Speaker 3: Mohammad Solomon to the left of your screen, topless and
Speaker 3: meters away from victims who he just set alight. He
Speaker 3: FBI direct Daksh Patil said the incident was a targeted
Speaker 3: terror attack. Let's have a look at this footage of
Speaker 3: the alleged terrorists shouting about Zionists as a badly injured
Speaker 3: woman is helped by brave individuals.
Speaker 15: We can't do nothing.
Speaker 3: Here, and in this clip you can see the man
Speaker 3: continuing to rant about Palestine and calling the pro Israeli
Speaker 3: protesters killers.
Speaker 6: What we can't do.
Speaker 1: He's got right here.
Speaker 3: Joining me now is author and commentite Her Shamaka Michelle Shamika.
Speaker 3: It's hot to believe that that's America, but there's no
Speaker 3: doubt that the anti Jewish, anti Israel sentiment has intensified
Speaker 3: in recent wakes.
Speaker 4: You know, Rita, it's really sad.
Speaker 16: As you said, this is America, and this isn't something
Speaker 16: that I'm used to seeing, you know, being here all
Speaker 16: of my life, about twenty five years. I'm just kidding,
Speaker 16: but you know, it's just sad that we have to
Speaker 16: witness this, and it's sad that people just going out
Speaker 16: for a peaceful protests.
Speaker 4: Have to be harmed in this manner.
Speaker 16: And it really makes me upset that people would go
Speaker 16: out and do this to fellow Americans. I don't understand
Speaker 16: why Boulder is refusing to call it a terror attack.
Speaker 16: That's exactly what it is. But it just shows exactly
Speaker 16: how terrible the hold is the left had that they
Speaker 16: just won't call a thing a thing, they never say
Speaker 16: exactly what it is.
Speaker 3: Well, you're right about that, because it seemed to be
Speaker 3: a clear case of domestic terrorism. There's so much footage
Speaker 3: of the incident and the alleged assailants saying what He's saying.
Speaker 3: And even after the FBI, the FBI labeled it a
Speaker 3: terror attack, local authorities in Colorado were reluctant to do.
Speaker 11: So.
Speaker 3: Let's listen to our bolder police chief Stephen Redford.
Speaker 10: FBA is already calling it a tarnet, a terror atturn.
Speaker 10: Would you also refer to it as a terror attack?
Speaker 11: So I've been in contact with our local FBI multiple times.
Speaker 11: We are in contact with them here. We're not calling
Speaker 11: it a terror attack at this point. Again, it's way
Speaker 11: too early to speculate motive.
Speaker 8: You know.
Speaker 11: I know there's a lot out there on social media,
Speaker 11: but I ask people just to give us a little
Speaker 11: bit of patience while we work through a really complex scene.
Speaker 3: Shamika, why do you think this is that they are
Speaker 3: so reluctant to call spade a spade, even after it
Speaker 3: identifies itself as a spade.
Speaker 4: I think they're just so used to lyon.
Speaker 16: This is what mainstream media does, and they promote this
Speaker 16: type of behavior because someone behind the camera or behind
Speaker 16: the microphone should have called him on his foolishness.
Speaker 4: Because if the FBI.
Speaker 16: Has already determined this is what it is, what do
Speaker 16: you mean you don't know what the motive is? The
Speaker 16: man was hollering free Palestine. I just don't understand why
Speaker 16: we have to be so silly and pretend like we.
Speaker 4: Don't know his motive when it's clear.
Speaker 3: Well, there were anti Israel's speeches at a number of
Speaker 3: universities across the US in recent days, including MIT. Let's
Speaker 3: listen here to the class president mega V Muri, who
Speaker 3: spent a graduation speech advocating for Palestine and bashing Israel.
Speaker 2: Last spring, MT's undergraduate body and graduate student union voted
Speaker 2: overwhelmingly to cut ties with the genocidal Israeli military. You
Speaker 2: called for a permanent ceasefire and Guza and you stood
Speaker 2: installidarity with the pro Palti and activists on campus. We
Speaker 2: are watching Israel try to wipe passign off the face
Speaker 2: of the earth, and it's a shame that MIT is
Speaker 2: a part of it. The Israeli occupation forces are the
Speaker 2: only foreign military that MIT has research ties with.
Speaker 10: This means that Israel's.
Speaker 2: Assault on the Palestinian people is not only aided and
Speaker 2: abetted by our country.
Speaker 4: But our school, Shamika.
Speaker 3: These protests across university campuses are ongoing. We're seeing some
Speaker 3: of their top students using a moment where they're supposed
Speaker 3: to be celebrating academic excellence, devoting it to activism. What
Speaker 3: is happening in American universities. I thought the Trump administration
Speaker 3: was really looking at tackling some of these issues.
Speaker 16: You know, and Noah's going to take time, but I
Speaker 16: am so excited about them tackling these issues. The universities
Speaker 16: here are really just in doctrination camps. And I'm so
Speaker 16: glad this wasn't at my daughter's school. My two youngest
Speaker 16: just graduated college a couple of weeks ago, and I
Speaker 16: am so grateful that the speakers during their graduation ceremonies
Speaker 16: just really encouraged them. They applauded them for, you know,
Speaker 16: their accomplishments, told them how to go out into the world.
Speaker 16: It was not a political rally or something that had
Speaker 16: absolutely nothing.
Speaker 12: To do with them.
Speaker 4: It just makes me upset that she took this time when.
Speaker 16: Other people were graduating as well, to use this for
Speaker 16: her own, you know, special soapbox. I just I would
Speaker 16: have been in the audience booing her and telling her
Speaker 16: to shut it up, because this.
Speaker 4: Was just not the time or the place.
Speaker 3: Now, let's talk about Lee trum administration's efforts to deport
Speaker 3: the millions of illegal immigrants that Joe Biden allowed into
Speaker 3: the country. The Democrats are fighting this tooth and nail,
Speaker 3: using the courts activist judges, and we've got to hear
Speaker 3: veteran Democrat Jerry Nageler explaining why America needs illegal immigrants.
Speaker 3: He says, without them, who's going to pick the vegetables
Speaker 3: and have babies?
Speaker 17: And we need immigrants in this country. Forget the fact
Speaker 17: that the farm that our vegetables would right in the
Speaker 17: ground if it weren't if they weren't being picked by
Speaker 17: many immigrants, many illegal immigrants. The fact is that the
Speaker 17: birth rate in this country is way below replacement level,
Speaker 17: which means our population is going to start.
Speaker 3: Shrinking Shamika, we need illegal immigrants to pick vegetables.
Speaker 4: Does that remind you of an argument from the long
Speaker 4: dark past, right exactly?
Speaker 16: And how disrespectful it is to just diminish them down
Speaker 16: to vegetable pickers. You know, Jerry is actually shaped like
Speaker 16: a peanut eminem with legs. I just can't take him seriously.
Speaker 16: So many of them sit in these positions decades after decade,
Speaker 16: you know, and just say the craziest things. They don't
Speaker 16: even realize they're being racist or xenophobic. He's just coming
Speaker 16: out of his mouth to just diminish an entire group
Speaker 16: of people down to vegetable pickers.
Speaker 4: That's something I would do, you know, just as a joke.
Speaker 4: To see this gag in conference is crazy.
Speaker 6: You know, you would do it as a joke.
Speaker 3: He's making that as a serious argument for stopping these deportations,
Speaker 3: a kin to arguing for keeping slavery.
Speaker 4: Him and who else is going to pick the corton.
Speaker 4: It's just abhorrent.
Speaker 3: Now you mentioned nobody trusting the mainstream media, the leftist
Speaker 3: mainstream media in the US, and earlier today seen and
Speaker 3: refer to that alleged domestic terrorist as a white man. Naturally,
Speaker 3: and here we've got NBC News gas lighting the nation,
Speaker 3: or trying to by calling a boy competing in and
Speaker 3: dominating girls sporting events, calling him a she, calling him her,
Speaker 3: and painting this grossly unfair situation is something to be celebrated.
Speaker 18: Aby Hernandez opening up for the first time about her
Speaker 18: ongoing participation as a trans athlete in a high school
Speaker 18: girls sports competition, It's generated strong criticism, including from President Trump,
Speaker 18: who threatened to cut state funding if they quote illegally
Speaker 18: allow men to play in women's sports. This was the
Speaker 18: girl's triple jump varsity competition on Friday, held up Buchanan
Speaker 18: High School in Clovis. Hernandez took the top spot.
Speaker 4: A few hours earlier, the.
Speaker 18: High school teenager competed in the girl's high jump and
Speaker 18: long jump farsity, where she also ranked first place and
Speaker 18: qualified her to Saturday's events.
Speaker 16: When you see how happy this kid is being herself,
Speaker 16: you know, the first time I saw her come out
Speaker 16: dressed as a girl, that she didn't have to hide.
Speaker 12: It from me.
Speaker 6: I saw it in her face, So I was like,
Speaker 6: this is it?
Speaker 3: Well, yes, her boy is happy, but Shamika, what about
Speaker 3: the girls who lose out after years of trading.
Speaker 10: Right, the actual girls are not happy at all.
Speaker 16: And this is why I could never be a part
Speaker 16: of mainstream media because I would actually.
Speaker 4: Call the boy a boy.
Speaker 16: You know, if it walks like a duck, looks like
Speaker 16: a duck, quacks like a duck, it's a duck, that
Speaker 16: say boy. I don't care how long he grows his hair.
Speaker 16: I don't care that he wears makeup. I don't even
Speaker 16: care if he takes his male parts and sit him
Speaker 16: on a mantle and pray to them, you're a boy.
Speaker 16: And so it just makes me upset that we have
Speaker 16: these grown adults that won't lead these kids in the
Speaker 16: right direction to say, look, this is the way you
Speaker 16: are created.
Speaker 1: This is what you are.
Speaker 16: You can't change it. You can't change your chromosomes. Therefore
Speaker 16: you cannot change your gender.
Speaker 6: You are what you are.
Speaker 10: And that's just the bottom line.
Speaker 16: We would never be promoting this. If he said I
Speaker 16: want to be Spider Man, we would never say, while,
Speaker 16: go up to the tallest building and climb out the
Speaker 16: window and let's see you scale down.
Speaker 4: We would never say that to him.
Speaker 16: So I don't understand why we are allowing children or
Speaker 16: even adults to think there's something that they.
Speaker 3: Aren't Schamika, Michelle, thank you so much for your time tonight.
Speaker 3: Still to come the latest on the Hugh Jackman departly
Speaker 3: for nest divorce. Kinsey Schofield is up next. Welcome back
Speaker 3: Joining Me Now. Celebrity and royal commentator Kinsey Schofield Kinsey
Speaker 3: Young New York singles have told The New York Post
Speaker 3: that being maga is more attractive now than ever before.
Speaker 3: It's never been a better time to date as a conservative,
Speaker 3: set Cjparson, co chair of the GOP Youth Advisory Council.
Speaker 3: He added, being conservative right now is the coolest it's
Speaker 3: ever been, and that women want to be with a
Speaker 3: guy who's a and I quote a provider who they
Speaker 3: feel safe around. Is that being your experience, Kinsey.
Speaker 4: I know you're not in New York, but you get around.
Speaker 4: Is being conservative the hot cool thing now?
Speaker 10: I think it's certainly more accepted in Hollywood.
Speaker 15: You would never dare admit who you voted for if
Speaker 15: you were a conservative, because not only would it cost
Speaker 15: you a job, it would cost you friends. And with
Speaker 15: this particular organization, it helps that they're pretty funny and clever.
Speaker 10: One of the socials.
Speaker 15: Bringing young conservative singles together is called make America Hot again.
Speaker 15: So I mean, obviously you're going to see that on
Speaker 15: a flyer or a Facebook invite, and it's going to
Speaker 15: pick your curiosity and you're going to say, I want
Speaker 15: to know what that's about.
Speaker 3: Well, I think it has been noted throughout the election
Speaker 3: campaign that sometimes you could just pick the party by
Speaker 3: the appearance appearance of the supporters.
Speaker 4: Make of that what you will.
Speaker 9: Now.
Speaker 4: Season three of Sex and the City spin off Just
Speaker 4: Like That is out and.
Speaker 3: The first episode features a guest appearance from Rosy O'Donnell
Speaker 3: playing a virgin.
Speaker 4: Nun named Mary.
Speaker 3: Naturally, now Mary meets Miranda played by Cynthia Nixon and
Speaker 3: Mary the Virgin Nune. After meeting Miranda at a lesbian bar,
Speaker 3: they end up in bed together, Kinz, I mean, I
Speaker 3: would rather stick a thumb tacks in my eyes than
Speaker 3: watch mess.
Speaker 15: Welcome to Hell, you know, And Just Like That is
Speaker 15: disappointing to so many fans because it forgets what made
Speaker 15: Sex and the City fund in the first place, bold friendship,
Speaker 15: fearless humor, and smart, flawed women.
Speaker 10: The original was witty, irreverent, and sharp.
Speaker 15: The reboot it's like everyone's been lobotomized and handed a
Speaker 15: BuzzFeed article on how to sound progressive. The jokes are
Speaker 15: awkward and the dialogue feels more like a lecture than banter.
Speaker 15: And you're right, if I could, I'll never unsee what
Speaker 15: I just witnessed on your show.
Speaker 10: Reader, I'm I'm filing a complaint. Rosie needs to put
Speaker 10: a shirt on.
Speaker 4: I don't blame you.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that series, even six in the City itself, I
Speaker 3: argue you jump the shark after a few years. Yes,
Speaker 3: it was great to begin with, and then it deteriorated
Speaker 3: in a quick time. Now, deborahly for Ness, Australian depitly
Speaker 3: for Ness, is finally filed for divorce from Hugh Jackman,
Speaker 3: citing betrayal and nice guy. Hugh responded by posting this
Speaker 3: the following day, and note the music and the lyrics, Kinsey.
Speaker 3: Hugh Jackman is being called out for that right rightfully,
Speaker 3: so explained to my audience who may not be familiar
Speaker 3: with that song and the lyrics.
Speaker 4: Why he's been called out, Well.
Speaker 15: Look, I think the big scandal here is the affair,
Speaker 15: the alleged affair, I should say, with actress Sutton Foster
Speaker 15: and Debrah was so gracious and kind and spoke out
Speaker 15: about the traumatic journey of betrayal last week, saying that
Speaker 15: there split was a profound wound that cuts deep and
Speaker 15: for Hugh to be so insensitive. People do believe that
Speaker 15: the betrayal of Sutton, who he recently moved into his home,
Speaker 15: and this is just on.
Speaker 10: Top of all of the chaos surrounding him.
Speaker 3: That he bought with Deborah Lee Finesse the home they
Speaker 3: brought together, which would be an extra wound to deal.
Speaker 15: With, absolutely, and she stood by him when he was
Speaker 15: a no one, you know, and watched helped elevate him
Speaker 15: and cheerlead him into this amazing career that he has today.
Speaker 15: So I do think that he is he's jeopardizing his
Speaker 15: career because on top of this, he has the association
Speaker 15: and the scandal with Ryan Reynolds, who you know, he
Speaker 15: very well could be drawn into the Justin Baldoni lawsuit
Speaker 15: thanks to text messages and things like that.
Speaker 10: So he needs to tread lightly.
Speaker 4: Oh, he certainly does.
Speaker 3: I think that the gracious thing would have been just
Speaker 3: to say nothing, but to post something like that, it's
Speaker 3: not only juvenile, it's so dismissive of his former wives hurt,
Speaker 3: and she was quite brave in being forthcoming about the
Speaker 3: betrayal and how deeply it cut her.
Speaker 4: Now let's talk about Ashley Sinclair.
Speaker 3: We haven't talked about her for a few weeks. She's
Speaker 3: one of the latest Elon baby mammas. Now she has
Speaker 3: said that Elon and she's done another interview, this time
Speaker 3: with The New York Times, and she says Elon father
Speaker 3: another child, this time with a Japanese pop star, and
Speaker 3: he told an ex that he would offer his sperm
Speaker 3: to anyone. Kinsey, We're going to see women just forming
Speaker 3: an orderly queue here.
Speaker 4: What's this about.
Speaker 3: Surely Elon isn't going to be just fathering children with
Speaker 3: random women.
Speaker 10: I mean, here's so many kids.
Speaker 15: Ancestry dot com has started fundraising for a bigger server.
Speaker 10: There's not enough space. The family tree is now a forest.
Speaker 10: And if he'll just give his sperm to anybody, I'm like,
Speaker 10: is Amber heard a possibility?
Speaker 15: I know I'm the only one that's beating the drum weekly,
Speaker 15: but I'm like, this is getting a little too suspicious
Speaker 15: based on what he was willing to pay Ashley, Yes,
Speaker 15: women would line up and they would keep their mouths
Speaker 15: shut and they would have his baby.
Speaker 3: I'm surprised she's doing more interviews. I just don't know
Speaker 3: why she wants to be in the spotlight, because a
Speaker 3: lot of the baby mamas apparently don't want that. They're
Speaker 3: quite happy to raise the kids without the fad fare.
Speaker 3: Meghan Markael is said to be teaming up with Beyonce's mom,
Speaker 3: Tina Knowles for a surprise podcast episode.
Speaker 15: Can't wait for this, Kinsey, Yeah, I know, we're both
Speaker 15: so thrilled, right, So this is after completing the initial
Speaker 15: eight episode run, Meghan announced that she's releasing this additional
Speaker 15: episode with Beyonce's mom on Tuesday, and some of us
Speaker 15: are trying to understand why she's returning to her entertainment
Speaker 15: roots here or even the archetypes failed format. The shift
Speaker 15: away from the show's original focus on founders and entrepreneurs
Speaker 15: as raising eyebrows, and some of us are.
Speaker 10: Interpreting it as a calculated rebrand.
Speaker 15: But there are others that are arguing that this is
Speaker 15: just you know, she's trying to go out with a bang.
Speaker 10: I think it's odd, you know, is she going to
Speaker 10: teach us?
Speaker 3: Why?
Speaker 10: What is Tina going to.
Speaker 15: Is Meghan going to like try to become a manager
Speaker 15: to Lily? That's my question, is that the next route
Speaker 15: we're going.
Speaker 3: Well, if that's what she wants to do, get Chris
Speaker 3: Jenner on, because I think Chris Jenner is one of
Speaker 3: those people who got that jar of jam and she's
Speaker 3: the best at that role, much better than Tina and Knowles,
Speaker 3: because really her daughters don't seem to have any obvious
Speaker 3: talents and all of them are just enormously rich and famous.
Speaker 3: Before you go, just on Meghan, Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola
Speaker 3: Peltz have hired Meghan's lawyer to help them with their
Speaker 3: reputation management amid continuing reports of refine within the family.
Speaker 4: Is that really wise?
Speaker 3: I wouldn't have thought Harry and Meghan's reputations were the
Speaker 3: best in the industry.
Speaker 15: Right, Like, why stop there? Go ahead and hire the
Speaker 15: captain of the Titanic while you're at it. Hiring their
Speaker 15: crisis team or their lawyers or whatever is like asking.
Speaker 10: For a match to put out a fire. It only
Speaker 10: makes things worse.
Speaker 15: And now everyone is watching, so good luck, thoughts and
Speaker 15: prayers to Brooklyn and his wife.
Speaker 3: Well, this is a little bit sad though, to see
Speaker 3: Brooklyn falling out with his mum and dad because David
Speaker 3: and Victoria Beckham, they've always presented this image of having
Speaker 3: this very united, close family and to have their eldest
Speaker 3: son kind of be a strange because of his partner.
Speaker 4: No one wants to see that at Kinsey Schofield. It's
Speaker 4: always a pleasure.
Speaker 3: Thank you so much for your time tonight, and that's
Speaker 3: it for me. I'll see you at eleven tomorrow night.
Speaker 4: Up next, it's Newsnight,
