WEBVTT - The Rita Panahi Show | 18 June

0:00:02.759 --> 0:00:07.200
<v Speaker 1>On scorn wilds Oscodia. This is the Wider Panalty Show.

0:00:09.280 --> 0:00:12.000
<v Speaker 2>Good evening and welcome to the Rita Patty Show. Coming

0:00:12.080 --> 0:00:14.760
<v Speaker 2>up tonight. I speak to the father whose world was

0:00:14.760 --> 0:00:17.680
<v Speaker 2>turned upside down when he is then fifteen year old

0:00:17.760 --> 0:00:21.880
<v Speaker 2>son was almost killed after being struck by the Andrews

0:00:21.960 --> 0:00:26.680
<v Speaker 2>family suv. The Prime Minister reafirms his support for truth

0:00:26.840 --> 0:00:30.640
<v Speaker 2>telling and treaty despite the failure of the voice. Josh

0:00:30.680 --> 0:00:33.840
<v Speaker 2>Hammer will join me from the US, where Joe Biden's

0:00:33.880 --> 0:00:38.239
<v Speaker 2>intersectional base is breaking apart with black and Hispanic voters

0:00:38.720 --> 0:00:42.040
<v Speaker 2>flocking to Trump, and of course plenty of left is

0:00:42.120 --> 0:00:42.599
<v Speaker 2>losing it.

0:00:43.120 --> 0:00:45.360
<v Speaker 3>Where is the only country where it's legal to be

0:00:45.400 --> 0:00:47.519
<v Speaker 3>gay in the Middle East? Palty Asia, Do you know

0:00:47.560 --> 0:00:48.120
<v Speaker 3>it's Israel?

0:00:48.200 --> 0:00:49.720
<v Speaker 4>I don't consider it a country.

0:00:49.880 --> 0:00:50.360
<v Speaker 5>I've got a.

0:00:50.320 --> 0:00:56.360
<v Speaker 2>Palestine joining me now is Harold's Sons Senior columnist Patrick Carline. Patrick,

0:00:56.440 --> 0:00:59.360
<v Speaker 2>Let's start in Victoria. The Herald's Sons are revealed that

0:00:59.680 --> 0:01:04.440
<v Speaker 2>nine thousand Victorians have been the victims of aggravated burglaries

0:01:04.520 --> 0:01:07.960
<v Speaker 2>in the past ten years. That's one in every seventy

0:01:08.000 --> 0:01:13.120
<v Speaker 2>five Victorian homes. Incredible figure. Bayside area has been hit

0:01:13.480 --> 0:01:17.360
<v Speaker 2>hard we've seen burglaries up six hundred and seventy three

0:01:17.480 --> 0:01:21.640
<v Speaker 2>percent from ten years ago. Two hundred and one incidents

0:01:21.800 --> 0:01:24.760
<v Speaker 2>reported last year. A lot of this growth is due

0:01:24.840 --> 0:01:28.920
<v Speaker 2>to youth criminals. We've one police source telling The Herald's

0:01:28.920 --> 0:01:33.000
<v Speaker 2>son that the parents for most of these children is

0:01:33.120 --> 0:01:37.520
<v Speaker 2>the state of Victorian. That is a reoccurring problem, isn't it.

0:01:37.520 --> 0:01:41.000
<v Speaker 2>The Herald Son again reported a youth offender who had

0:01:41.200 --> 0:01:44.280
<v Speaker 2>hundreds of offenses.

0:01:44.280 --> 0:01:46.040
<v Speaker 6>Wiped off the books.

0:01:46.800 --> 0:01:50.800
<v Speaker 2>It's just an incredible number for such a young kid,

0:01:50.880 --> 0:01:53.280
<v Speaker 2>and you just wonder what his future is going to be.

0:01:53.480 --> 0:01:54.800
<v Speaker 6>But people are scared.

0:01:54.840 --> 0:01:57.280
<v Speaker 2>People are scared in their own homes, and they're getting

0:01:57.680 --> 0:02:01.360
<v Speaker 2>increasingly upset by some of the advice they're getting about

0:02:01.360 --> 0:02:05.680
<v Speaker 2>how to deal with this crisis. Things like putting a

0:02:05.720 --> 0:02:08.600
<v Speaker 2>tracking device in your car so when it's stolen, we

0:02:08.639 --> 0:02:10.280
<v Speaker 2>can track it down a little bit easier.

0:02:10.440 --> 0:02:12.000
<v Speaker 1>Yes, well that's the problem, isn't it.

0:02:12.040 --> 0:02:15.399
<v Speaker 7>I mean we're being told the official advice is surrender.

0:02:15.480 --> 0:02:17.440
<v Speaker 7>If they come to your castle, they come to your

0:02:17.480 --> 0:02:22.120
<v Speaker 7>home at two am, surrender on the spot. And Rebecca Judd,

0:02:22.200 --> 0:02:24.639
<v Speaker 7>the influencer, was going on we got it right the

0:02:24.639 --> 0:02:27.880
<v Speaker 7>other day. She talked about Melbourne being woke, broke and violence,

0:02:28.400 --> 0:02:32.440
<v Speaker 7>and there is a really palpable fear. If you leave

0:02:32.480 --> 0:02:34.839
<v Speaker 7>your car in the driveway, are you going to wake

0:02:34.919 --> 0:02:37.800
<v Speaker 7>up at two am to kids marauding through your house

0:02:37.919 --> 0:02:41.840
<v Speaker 7>demanding your keys as a revolving door. They get caught.

0:02:41.919 --> 0:02:44.200
<v Speaker 7>It sounds like the police are very good in turning

0:02:44.240 --> 0:02:46.760
<v Speaker 7>up quickly. They arrest some of them, they get bail,

0:02:46.880 --> 0:02:48.959
<v Speaker 7>and then they do it again. And this is getting worse.

0:02:48.960 --> 0:02:52.639
<v Speaker 7>I mean, these numbers vindicate that fear that so many

0:02:52.639 --> 0:02:54.239
<v Speaker 7>men Burnie is a feeling at the most.

0:02:54.520 --> 0:02:57.520
<v Speaker 2>And I remember when Beck Judd first brought this up,

0:02:57.560 --> 0:03:02.920
<v Speaker 2>particularly in the base Side area, backlash from the Victorian government.

0:03:03.000 --> 0:03:06.800
<v Speaker 2>Dad Andrews was Premier at the time, and he kind

0:03:06.840 --> 0:03:09.880
<v Speaker 2>of mocked her and said her figures were completely wrong

0:03:09.919 --> 0:03:12.560
<v Speaker 2>and the official stats don't back that up. The official

0:03:12.600 --> 0:03:16.400
<v Speaker 2>stats did back that, Hud, but he's gone and just

0:03:16.440 --> 0:03:20.560
<v Speaker 2>into Alan seems to be even less interested in this.

0:03:20.600 --> 0:03:22.240
<v Speaker 2>I mean, she would know that it's going to have

0:03:22.280 --> 0:03:24.160
<v Speaker 2>an impact at the polls, but the polls are a

0:03:24.160 --> 0:03:24.800
<v Speaker 2>long way away.

0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:27.640
<v Speaker 7>Absolutely now. I think she should be very mindful of that.

0:03:27.720 --> 0:03:31.040
<v Speaker 7>I mean, people are very sort of cynical. If you

0:03:31.200 --> 0:03:33.919
<v Speaker 7>like about this bail policy, and you keep reading these

0:03:33.919 --> 0:03:36.680
<v Speaker 7>stories where kids are given bail and you haven't judged,

0:03:36.720 --> 0:03:37.960
<v Speaker 7>So I'll give you another chance.

0:03:38.080 --> 0:03:39.960
<v Speaker 1>This is chance number nine or number ten.

0:03:40.360 --> 0:03:43.320
<v Speaker 7>Then they go and t bonakar at an intersection in

0:03:43.320 --> 0:03:46.200
<v Speaker 7>the stolen car, or they're in a police chase or whatever.

0:03:46.320 --> 0:03:47.760
<v Speaker 7>They're danger in the community.

0:03:48.040 --> 0:03:49.640
<v Speaker 1>It really does. These are the sorts of.

0:03:49.680 --> 0:03:53.120
<v Speaker 7>Things you might expect in Johannesburg or the South Side

0:03:53.760 --> 0:03:54.840
<v Speaker 7>or Chicago or something.

0:03:54.880 --> 0:03:55.839
<v Speaker 1>This is Melbourne.

0:03:56.200 --> 0:03:59.240
<v Speaker 2>Well, that was what was interesting when the police gave

0:03:59.280 --> 0:04:03.200
<v Speaker 2>that advice about put a was it the Apple device

0:04:03.320 --> 0:04:06.960
<v Speaker 2>that air tracker in your car so we can find it?

0:04:07.000 --> 0:04:09.920
<v Speaker 2>And I think there was other advice about leaving the

0:04:10.000 --> 0:04:12.680
<v Speaker 2>keys by the front door so if they come in,

0:04:12.760 --> 0:04:14.640
<v Speaker 2>they don't have to find you. They can just grab

0:04:14.680 --> 0:04:16.640
<v Speaker 2>the keys and grab your car. It's the sort of

0:04:16.680 --> 0:04:21.359
<v Speaker 2>advice crime riddled Californian cities were given to their residents.

0:04:21.400 --> 0:04:24.280
<v Speaker 2>So we're not expecting to hear that in Melbourne. Now

0:04:24.360 --> 0:04:28.800
<v Speaker 2>let's talk about Anthony Albanezi's while he's saying is open

0:04:29.040 --> 0:04:32.440
<v Speaker 2>to a macaratea commission, in other words, a treaty and

0:04:32.839 --> 0:04:37.200
<v Speaker 2>the whole truth telling process. We saw him on election

0:04:37.480 --> 0:04:41.239
<v Speaker 2>night promise to implement the Ullarys Statement from the Heart

0:04:41.240 --> 0:04:44.800
<v Speaker 2>in full and that does include treaty and truth telling.

0:04:44.960 --> 0:04:49.520
<v Speaker 2>But given that the Voice failed, and failed pretty comprehensively, Patrick,

0:04:49.560 --> 0:04:51.120
<v Speaker 2>you would think you would listen to the will of

0:04:51.160 --> 0:04:54.760
<v Speaker 2>the Australian people Because sixty one percent of them are

0:04:54.800 --> 0:04:59.080
<v Speaker 2>against the Voice. I would guess more than eighty percent

0:04:59.160 --> 0:05:02.360
<v Speaker 2>would be against an treaty process. So why is it

0:05:02.360 --> 0:05:07.600
<v Speaker 2>even entertaining it contemplating? It is really beyond me? Is

0:05:07.640 --> 0:05:09.440
<v Speaker 2>it determined to be a one term PM?

0:05:10.520 --> 0:05:12.680
<v Speaker 7>It seems like it doesn't. I think I've said to

0:05:12.680 --> 0:05:14.919
<v Speaker 7>you before. I went up to Cape York about a

0:05:14.920 --> 0:05:17.560
<v Speaker 7>month before the Voice. I spoke to people in remote

0:05:17.560 --> 0:05:20.200
<v Speaker 7>communities and they were seeing all about the Voice. They said,

0:05:20.200 --> 0:05:24.760
<v Speaker 7>this is big city nonsense. Basically, there is no appetite

0:05:24.760 --> 0:05:26.400
<v Speaker 7>for treaties at the moment, and I think there's a

0:05:26.440 --> 0:05:27.240
<v Speaker 7>lot of suspicion.

0:05:27.880 --> 0:05:31.599
<v Speaker 1>What's a treaty about. Is it about actually truth telling.

0:05:31.320 --> 0:05:35.240
<v Speaker 7>As it's called, or is it about activism and of

0:05:35.240 --> 0:05:38.159
<v Speaker 7>reparations down the track? What does a treaty actually lead to?

0:05:38.400 --> 0:05:40.840
<v Speaker 7>And people are sick of thinking about it. I think

0:05:41.360 --> 0:05:44.280
<v Speaker 7>people care a lot more about practical outcomes. There've been

0:05:44.279 --> 0:05:48.320
<v Speaker 7>no improvements across the board in indigenous sort of health

0:05:48.520 --> 0:05:53.680
<v Speaker 7>or employment or education for twenty years. People want to

0:05:53.720 --> 0:05:56.040
<v Speaker 7>see that get better. They're not that interested in sort

0:05:56.080 --> 0:05:56.760
<v Speaker 7>of going back.

0:05:57.279 --> 0:06:02.039
<v Speaker 2>We keep seeing successive governments listening almost exclusively to the

0:06:02.080 --> 0:06:04.360
<v Speaker 2>activist class, and I think that's a large part of

0:06:04.400 --> 0:06:04.839
<v Speaker 2>the problem.

0:06:04.920 --> 0:06:07.479
<v Speaker 6>The very people whose advices.

0:06:07.000 --> 0:06:10.760
<v Speaker 2>Let us here are the ones who are still setting

0:06:10.839 --> 0:06:15.039
<v Speaker 2>the agenda. Now, let's talk about South Coast residents in

0:06:15.040 --> 0:06:18.720
<v Speaker 2>New South Wales staging a rally to oppose the government's

0:06:18.839 --> 0:06:24.080
<v Speaker 2>offshort wind farm plans. National leader David littlproud told the

0:06:24.120 --> 0:06:28.320
<v Speaker 2>crowd a coalition government would dump the Illwarra project and

0:06:28.360 --> 0:06:32.120
<v Speaker 2>will look for other energy options. He said the coalition

0:06:32.440 --> 0:06:37.799
<v Speaker 2>isn't against renewables, but renewables should be an environment, should

0:06:37.880 --> 0:06:40.440
<v Speaker 2>be in an environment they can't destroy.

0:06:40.560 --> 0:06:41.760
<v Speaker 6>That is a good point.

0:06:42.800 --> 0:06:46.240
<v Speaker 2>The Daily Telegraph ran a poll on this issue. Eighty

0:06:46.360 --> 0:06:50.120
<v Speaker 2>nine percent of their readers are against this project. Patrick,

0:06:50.240 --> 0:06:54.120
<v Speaker 2>but the government is pressing ahead with so many of

0:06:54.160 --> 0:06:58.760
<v Speaker 2>these large scale renewable projects and they do seem to

0:06:58.800 --> 0:07:04.520
<v Speaker 2>destroy the natural environments, certainly esthetically. These soul of farms,

0:07:04.640 --> 0:07:09.279
<v Speaker 2>wind farms and the concerns of local residents seem to

0:07:09.279 --> 0:07:10.920
<v Speaker 2>be disregarded very easily.

0:07:11.320 --> 0:07:13.640
<v Speaker 7>It sounds like there's been very little consultation in a

0:07:13.640 --> 0:07:15.400
<v Speaker 7>lot of these cases. And I mean, you've got New

0:07:15.440 --> 0:07:19.160
<v Speaker 7>South Wales, you've got Southwest Victoria, and you've got CFA

0:07:19.280 --> 0:07:21.960
<v Speaker 7>units in Victoria today coming out and saying we're not

0:07:22.000 --> 0:07:24.800
<v Speaker 7>going to put out fires on renewable projects unless lies

0:07:24.800 --> 0:07:27.080
<v Speaker 7>are endangered, because we don't want these projects.

0:07:27.120 --> 0:07:28.680
<v Speaker 1>These are bad for our communities.

0:07:28.800 --> 0:07:31.120
<v Speaker 7>And it sounds like there's a real disconnect between the

0:07:31.520 --> 0:07:35.640
<v Speaker 7>ideology of the renewables push and those poor people on

0:07:35.680 --> 0:07:38.720
<v Speaker 7>the ground who actually have to live with the consequences

0:07:38.720 --> 0:07:40.920
<v Speaker 7>of transmission lines and those sorts of things.

0:07:41.880 --> 0:07:43.360
<v Speaker 1>It sounds like it's been badly handled.

0:07:43.400 --> 0:07:45.720
<v Speaker 7>I think we'll see more and more of these kind

0:07:45.760 --> 0:07:47.320
<v Speaker 7>of protests as time goes on.

0:07:48.120 --> 0:07:52.920
<v Speaker 2>I hope that there is some movement because these projects

0:07:52.920 --> 0:07:56.720
<v Speaker 2>are happening and if you travel in the countryside, and

0:07:57.080 --> 0:07:59.520
<v Speaker 2>a lot of Australians really never leave the big cities

0:07:59.520 --> 0:08:02.400
<v Speaker 2>where they live, they would see this and they would

0:08:02.440 --> 0:08:06.600
<v Speaker 2>see the impact it's having on just beautiful parts of

0:08:06.640 --> 0:08:10.040
<v Speaker 2>the country being really visually destroyed. And god knows what

0:08:10.040 --> 0:08:14.840
<v Speaker 2>those solar farms are doing to the actual farmable land. Now,

0:08:14.920 --> 0:08:19.280
<v Speaker 2>Skynese host and former Chinese prisoner Chung Lay was body

0:08:19.320 --> 0:08:24.200
<v Speaker 2>blocked at a China Australia press event by Chinese officials.

0:08:24.280 --> 0:08:25.080
<v Speaker 6>Let's have a look.

0:08:26.040 --> 0:08:26.240
<v Speaker 8>Here.

0:08:26.240 --> 0:08:29.520
<v Speaker 9>You can see an Australian official asking the Chinese media

0:08:29.560 --> 0:08:32.960
<v Speaker 9>staffer to move from blocking the journalist. The woman in

0:08:33.000 --> 0:08:35.160
<v Speaker 9>the brown coat and the man in the blue blazer

0:08:35.480 --> 0:08:38.640
<v Speaker 9>are both standing between Miss Chung and the cameras who

0:08:38.679 --> 0:08:43.040
<v Speaker 9>are about to film the premiere of China and Anthony Albanezi.

0:08:42.600 --> 0:08:43.480
<v Speaker 4>Walking in together.

0:08:44.200 --> 0:08:47.439
<v Speaker 9>You can see Australian officials repeatedly trying to get them

0:08:47.520 --> 0:08:50.320
<v Speaker 9>to move, and when missus Chung switches seats so that

0:08:50.360 --> 0:08:53.480
<v Speaker 9>she's on the other side, the Chinese officials again try

0:08:53.559 --> 0:08:56.480
<v Speaker 9>to block her view from the cameras. You can see

0:08:56.520 --> 0:08:59.640
<v Speaker 9>an Australian staffer in the light coat blocking the two

0:08:59.760 --> 0:09:03.080
<v Speaker 9>Chines news officials from getting near Miss Chung. This was

0:09:03.160 --> 0:09:05.679
<v Speaker 9>all during remarks that were due to be made by

0:09:05.720 --> 0:09:08.800
<v Speaker 9>the Prime Minister and Chinese premiere. You can see here

0:09:08.840 --> 0:09:11.080
<v Speaker 9>Miss Chung is very amused by the whole thing, and

0:09:11.120 --> 0:09:13.920
<v Speaker 9>the ministers are in the background signing documents.

0:09:14.000 --> 0:09:16.960
<v Speaker 2>Now, the Prime Minister said the matter had been formally

0:09:17.000 --> 0:09:20.480
<v Speaker 2>followed up with a Chinese embassy to express Australia's concern

0:09:20.559 --> 0:09:24.960
<v Speaker 2>at las treatment, calling it clumsy. I would have used

0:09:25.640 --> 0:09:27.800
<v Speaker 2>stronger language, Patrick than clum z.

0:09:28.120 --> 0:09:30.480
<v Speaker 7>I don't think clumsy is the right word. Maybe deliberate

0:09:30.640 --> 0:09:35.120
<v Speaker 7>or insistent. We're on astrand soil here. How can this

0:09:35.200 --> 0:09:38.200
<v Speaker 7>not possibly be condemned in the strongest terms From the

0:09:38.280 --> 0:09:41.080
<v Speaker 7>moment it happened, it was all over the news yesterday,

0:09:41.240 --> 0:09:44.760
<v Speaker 7>It hijacked the biggest story of constructive relations and everything.

0:09:45.440 --> 0:09:47.560
<v Speaker 7>The Prime Minister needed to come out and condemn it

0:09:47.600 --> 0:09:50.040
<v Speaker 7>on the spot, it looked very flat footed. I think

0:09:50.080 --> 0:09:52.160
<v Speaker 7>it took him till this morning on radio to actually

0:09:52.320 --> 0:09:55.880
<v Speaker 7>sort of deal with the question properly, and even there

0:09:55.960 --> 0:09:59.360
<v Speaker 7>he used fairly flimsy language to try and make the point.

0:10:00.200 --> 0:10:04.240
<v Speaker 2>They seem to be terrified of offending China, where we

0:10:04.360 --> 0:10:07.800
<v Speaker 2>are scared of any sort of economic coercion, any punishment

0:10:08.200 --> 0:10:08.920
<v Speaker 2>they're going to.

0:10:08.840 --> 0:10:10.760
<v Speaker 6>Meet out, but we can't have that.

0:10:10.800 --> 0:10:13.080
<v Speaker 2>It's not bad enough that they locked up this poor

0:10:13.080 --> 0:10:17.800
<v Speaker 2>woman for three years and just the most horrific of circumstances.

0:10:17.880 --> 0:10:23.120
<v Speaker 2>The conditions she endured were stuff of nightmares. And then

0:10:23.200 --> 0:10:29.000
<v Speaker 2>to do this here the nerve of it is beyond belief. Now,

0:10:29.040 --> 0:10:34.040
<v Speaker 2>the US state of Kansas is suing pharmaceutical giant Pisa

0:10:34.120 --> 0:10:38.400
<v Speaker 2>for misleading the public on their COVID nineteen vaccine. The

0:10:38.480 --> 0:10:43.400
<v Speaker 2>say claims Fiser made false statements about its vaccines effectiveness

0:10:43.440 --> 0:10:47.920
<v Speaker 2>and hid its risks, including safety related to pregnant women

0:10:48.160 --> 0:10:52.720
<v Speaker 2>and heart problems. Here is Kansas Attorney General Chris Kobak.

0:10:54.000 --> 0:10:56.640
<v Speaker 10>However, as Spiser knew, the United States government, the United

0:10:56.640 --> 0:11:00.360
<v Speaker 10>States military, foreign governments, and others had found that Weser's

0:11:00.400 --> 0:11:07.920
<v Speaker 10>COVID nineteen vaccine casmiocarditis and pericarditis number three effectiveness regarding variants.

0:11:08.120 --> 0:11:11.559
<v Speaker 10>Weiser also claimed that it's COVID nineteen vaccine protected against

0:11:11.640 --> 0:11:15.400
<v Speaker 10>COVID nineteen variants, even though data available at the time

0:11:15.440 --> 0:11:18.720
<v Speaker 10>should Weser's vaccine was effective less than half the time

0:11:18.920 --> 0:11:25.040
<v Speaker 10>against variants. Finally, transmission, Piser urged Americans to get vaccinated

0:11:25.040 --> 0:11:28.800
<v Speaker 10>in order to protect their loved ones, clearly indicating a

0:11:28.920 --> 0:11:32.240
<v Speaker 10>claim that p Weiser's COVID nineteen vaccination stopped transmission of

0:11:32.280 --> 0:11:36.640
<v Speaker 10>COVID nineteen. Peiser later admitted that it had never even

0:11:36.679 --> 0:11:39.000
<v Speaker 10>studied transmission.

0:11:39.400 --> 0:11:43.120
<v Speaker 2>Interesting indeed, and I'm sure there are many in Australia

0:11:43.160 --> 0:11:46.679
<v Speaker 2>who have COVID vaccine injuries who will be watching this

0:11:46.840 --> 0:11:53.480
<v Speaker 2>case Patrick carefully, but they don't have too many options

0:11:53.480 --> 0:11:58.120
<v Speaker 2>if they're in Australia because these big pharmaceutical giants have

0:11:58.200 --> 0:11:59.839
<v Speaker 2>effectively got immunity.

0:12:00.160 --> 0:12:02.760
<v Speaker 7>Look, I think Kansas is just the beginning of this story.

0:12:02.840 --> 0:12:04.600
<v Speaker 7>There's going to be other states that are going to

0:12:04.600 --> 0:12:06.880
<v Speaker 7>take very similar action, and it'll be fascinating to see

0:12:06.880 --> 0:12:09.280
<v Speaker 7>how it all plays out. I know you've been very

0:12:09.280 --> 0:12:12.160
<v Speaker 7>strong on that transmission question all the way through because

0:12:12.160 --> 0:12:15.400
<v Speaker 7>it did sound like being vaccinated would protect you from

0:12:15.440 --> 0:12:16.000
<v Speaker 7>spreading it.

0:12:16.559 --> 0:12:18.559
<v Speaker 6>Well, that's what vaccines typically do.

0:12:18.760 --> 0:12:21.600
<v Speaker 2>They stop you getting it and spreading it. And there

0:12:21.640 --> 0:12:25.480
<v Speaker 2>are some who say that even just calling this a

0:12:25.600 --> 0:12:30.240
<v Speaker 2>vaccine has been counterproductive because we're now seeing less trust

0:12:30.280 --> 0:12:32.920
<v Speaker 2>in vaccines than we should be seeing, because people are

0:12:32.920 --> 0:12:37.160
<v Speaker 2>associating with the COVID vaccines when you know most vaccines

0:12:37.240 --> 0:12:42.080
<v Speaker 2>are far more effective and stopping infection and transmission.

0:12:42.160 --> 0:12:43.920
<v Speaker 7>Well, it all happened very quickly, didn't it, And at

0:12:43.960 --> 0:12:47.320
<v Speaker 7>the time the world was applauding that science.

0:12:46.960 --> 0:12:48.240
<v Speaker 1>Could come up with these vaccines.

0:12:48.280 --> 0:12:51.800
<v Speaker 7>So readily, Whereas you know, ordinarily things take years and

0:12:51.880 --> 0:12:54.080
<v Speaker 7>years and years and all sorts of checks and balances

0:12:54.120 --> 0:12:56.640
<v Speaker 7>before they're approved. This all happened very quickly, and I

0:12:56.640 --> 0:12:59.880
<v Speaker 7>think we're seeing the consequences for that man.

0:13:00.600 --> 0:13:02.160
<v Speaker 2>And I think one of the things we've got to

0:13:02.240 --> 0:13:06.840
<v Speaker 2>consider in this country, in this state in particular, is

0:13:07.679 --> 0:13:11.320
<v Speaker 2>the pressure to get young kids healthy, young kids who

0:13:11.360 --> 0:13:15.600
<v Speaker 2>are at the lowest risk from COVID vaccinated, because I

0:13:15.640 --> 0:13:19.880
<v Speaker 2>remember we were running stories about kids having to change

0:13:20.000 --> 0:13:25.040
<v Speaker 2>clothes on the sidewalk because they couldn't enter clothing shops

0:13:25.080 --> 0:13:29.640
<v Speaker 2>to try on clothes because they didn't have been double vax.

0:13:29.679 --> 0:13:32.720
<v Speaker 2>And we're talking about fourteen year old kids. So it's

0:13:32.760 --> 0:13:35.040
<v Speaker 2>almost like we've memory hold that episode for.

0:13:35.120 --> 0:13:37.679
<v Speaker 7>All we close playgrounds. I think we've got haircuts on

0:13:37.720 --> 0:13:39.760
<v Speaker 7>the street. At one point in Melbourne.

0:13:39.640 --> 0:13:43.920
<v Speaker 2>Well, we banned IVF treatments, and I think Victorians and

0:13:44.000 --> 0:13:47.960
<v Speaker 2>I think Australians at large, have forgotten so much of

0:13:47.960 --> 0:13:52.280
<v Speaker 2>that because so many signed up to the insanity wholeheartedly.

0:13:52.520 --> 0:13:54.960
<v Speaker 7>We've banned common sense, and we banned joy and we

0:13:55.000 --> 0:13:56.000
<v Speaker 7>did it for about two years.

0:13:56.360 --> 0:13:58.320
<v Speaker 1>And fish we shouldn't forget it, and fishing and fish

0:13:58.679 --> 0:13:59.280
<v Speaker 1>in Victoria.

0:13:59.520 --> 0:14:02.240
<v Speaker 2>You could fish elsewhere, Patrick Carline, thank you for your time.

0:14:02.400 --> 0:14:03.839
<v Speaker 1>Thanks for now.

0:14:03.960 --> 0:14:07.840
<v Speaker 2>Former Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews is fighting a court order

0:14:07.960 --> 0:14:10.839
<v Speaker 2>to submit phone records from the day his family is

0:14:11.520 --> 0:14:16.120
<v Speaker 2>Ford suv collided with a teenage cyclist who were seriously

0:14:16.160 --> 0:14:20.600
<v Speaker 2>injured on impact. The fifteen year old bike rider, Ryan Mullerman,

0:14:21.160 --> 0:14:23.360
<v Speaker 2>was riding on the morning in Peninsula when he was

0:14:23.440 --> 0:14:28.400
<v Speaker 2>struck on January seven, twenty thirteen. He's sustained serious injuries,

0:14:28.400 --> 0:14:32.760
<v Speaker 2>including a punctured lung, broken ribs, internal bleeding, and lost

0:14:32.920 --> 0:14:36.880
<v Speaker 2>ninety percent of his spleen. Dan Andrews's wife, Catherine was

0:14:36.920 --> 0:14:40.120
<v Speaker 2>behind the will at the time. Dan Andrews has engaged

0:14:40.160 --> 0:14:45.000
<v Speaker 2>high profile loyal Leon Swire and labeled the subpoena requiring

0:14:45.080 --> 0:14:49.000
<v Speaker 2>him to produce phone records from that day a phishing expedition.

0:14:49.600 --> 0:14:52.480
<v Speaker 2>We did reach out to Dan Andrews' media contact for

0:14:52.560 --> 0:14:53.360
<v Speaker 2>response and.

0:14:53.400 --> 0:14:55.120
<v Speaker 6>Have not received a reply.

0:14:55.320 --> 0:14:58.400
<v Speaker 2>We are happy to put their version of events to

0:14:58.520 --> 0:15:03.440
<v Speaker 2>airt any time if they respond to our request. Ryan's father,

0:15:03.800 --> 0:15:08.680
<v Speaker 2>Peter joins me, now, tell me about what you hope.

0:15:08.480 --> 0:15:10.640
<v Speaker 6>To achieve with this legal action.

0:15:12.000 --> 0:15:14.880
<v Speaker 8>We're hoping to get justice for Ryan from this. It's

0:15:14.960 --> 0:15:18.360
<v Speaker 8>just been such a long road for us, so we'd

0:15:18.360 --> 0:15:21.320
<v Speaker 8>really like to get closure on the case and if

0:15:21.320 --> 0:15:28.640
<v Speaker 8>we can get some honesty, some transparency, and some justice

0:15:28.640 --> 0:15:29.000
<v Speaker 8>for him.

0:15:29.400 --> 0:15:30.840
<v Speaker 6>It's been more than a decade.

0:15:31.560 --> 0:15:34.360
<v Speaker 2>We'll talk about how this has impacted your son and

0:15:34.400 --> 0:15:38.120
<v Speaker 2>your family, but first, speaking on behalf of the dissenter,

0:15:38.200 --> 0:15:42.560
<v Speaker 2>Alan government Minister Lily Dia Ambrosio has said that this

0:15:42.680 --> 0:15:45.360
<v Speaker 2>matter has already been thoroughly investigated.

0:15:46.360 --> 0:15:52.440
<v Speaker 11>This matter has been thoroughly investigated and has been concluded,

0:15:53.480 --> 0:15:55.960
<v Speaker 11>and there's nothing more to be added to this. I'm

0:15:55.960 --> 0:15:59.520
<v Speaker 11>not going to get into court matters, but what I

0:15:59.560 --> 0:16:03.120
<v Speaker 11>can say to everybody is that whenever this pops up

0:16:03.200 --> 0:16:07.160
<v Speaker 11>every now and then, the matter has been thoroughly investigated

0:16:07.840 --> 0:16:10.760
<v Speaker 11>by all relevant authorities and there's nothing more to be

0:16:10.800 --> 0:16:12.760
<v Speaker 11>added to it, and I won't be adding any more

0:16:12.760 --> 0:16:13.480
<v Speaker 11>comments to it.

0:16:15.360 --> 0:16:17.040
<v Speaker 6>What's your response to that.

0:16:17.880 --> 0:16:20.520
<v Speaker 8>Well, we don't feel that it's been thoroughly investigated. There's

0:16:20.560 --> 0:16:22.480
<v Speaker 8>been a lot of new evidence come to light just

0:16:22.600 --> 0:16:28.720
<v Speaker 8>recently the Triple O call for one, and we don't

0:16:28.720 --> 0:16:31.680
<v Speaker 8>believe that it was thoroughly investigated. Back at the time,

0:16:33.000 --> 0:16:35.960
<v Speaker 8>there was no breathalyzer done on either of the occupants

0:16:36.000 --> 0:16:42.080
<v Speaker 8>of the car. Daniel Andrews removed the car from the

0:16:42.200 --> 0:16:45.400
<v Speaker 8>crash scene, so removed that evidence from the scene.

0:16:46.080 --> 0:16:48.760
<v Speaker 2>He says that he did that to drive the kids

0:16:49.120 --> 0:16:51.480
<v Speaker 2>home because the kids, his kids in the car were

0:16:51.520 --> 0:16:56.120
<v Speaker 2>alarmed by the accident, so just to give his side.

0:16:56.120 --> 0:16:59.320
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, you're right, because we did have doctor Raymond Shwey,

0:16:59.360 --> 0:17:04.320
<v Speaker 2>who's the state's former Assistant Commissioner for Traffic and Operations.

0:17:04.359 --> 0:17:07.560
<v Speaker 2>He looked into this accident and said that Victoria Police,

0:17:08.359 --> 0:17:14.600
<v Speaker 2>the investigation they did, had twelve critical standards that were failed.

0:17:15.000 --> 0:17:19.240
<v Speaker 2>The standard operating procedures were not followed in at least

0:17:19.359 --> 0:17:25.000
<v Speaker 2>a dozen instances. Have you had an explanation from Victoria

0:17:25.119 --> 0:17:27.520
<v Speaker 2>Police for why they didn't do those sort of things

0:17:27.600 --> 0:17:30.000
<v Speaker 2>you mentioned the breathalysers, there's a number of other things

0:17:30.040 --> 0:17:33.800
<v Speaker 2>they didn't do properly. Is Have they been forthcoming and

0:17:34.000 --> 0:17:36.120
<v Speaker 2>explained their failures there?

0:17:36.560 --> 0:17:39.720
<v Speaker 8>No, we've had no correspondence from vic Pole at all,

0:17:40.359 --> 0:17:45.480
<v Speaker 8>and so that raises further suspicion. I guess if they

0:17:45.520 --> 0:17:49.240
<v Speaker 8>felt that they'd done their job entirely, they would have

0:17:49.280 --> 0:17:50.800
<v Speaker 8>come to us and said, well, we looked at it

0:17:50.800 --> 0:17:53.320
<v Speaker 8>this way and that way and that way, but none

0:17:53.359 --> 0:17:56.560
<v Speaker 8>of that happened. We've been really kept out of the loop,

0:17:56.720 --> 0:17:59.159
<v Speaker 8>and I think that they just wanted to close it

0:17:59.200 --> 0:18:05.760
<v Speaker 8>from their end, probably to protect a political career. But

0:18:06.240 --> 0:18:10.000
<v Speaker 8>our lawyers and our research team have uncovered a lot

0:18:10.000 --> 0:18:13.160
<v Speaker 8>of things. As I said, the breath Eliza, the removal

0:18:13.200 --> 0:18:15.879
<v Speaker 8>of the car. Yes, he took the children home, and

0:18:15.920 --> 0:18:18.360
<v Speaker 8>I'm aware that they would have been alarmed, but those

0:18:18.440 --> 0:18:21.480
<v Speaker 8>children are also witnesses to that accident, which is a

0:18:21.520 --> 0:18:23.280
<v Speaker 8>crucial piece of evidence as well.

0:18:24.000 --> 0:18:28.000
<v Speaker 2>Now, as I mentioned earlier, the premiere is the former premier,

0:18:28.040 --> 0:18:30.760
<v Speaker 2>Dan Andrews is fighting the court order to submit his

0:18:30.960 --> 0:18:36.120
<v Speaker 2>phone records from that night. What is your message, Jim,

0:18:36.160 --> 0:18:38.560
<v Speaker 2>if you could speak to him directly, if he's watching,

0:18:38.800 --> 0:18:41.320
<v Speaker 2>what is your message to Dan Andrews.

0:18:41.880 --> 0:18:45.240
<v Speaker 8>If you've got nothing to hide, you'd be transparent about

0:18:45.280 --> 0:18:48.639
<v Speaker 8>all of those records. But if you've got something to hide,

0:18:48.840 --> 0:18:51.120
<v Speaker 8>then you're going to fight to disclose those records.

0:18:51.400 --> 0:18:53.840
<v Speaker 2>But he says it's a fishing expedition, so we're not

0:18:54.240 --> 0:19:00.200
<v Speaker 2>casting any doubt on his reasons for that. But you've

0:19:00.240 --> 0:19:03.879
<v Speaker 2>made the point that given his standing in the community,

0:19:04.040 --> 0:19:06.760
<v Speaker 2>the fact that he's just been honored with the country's

0:19:06.840 --> 0:19:12.680
<v Speaker 2>highest honor, an ac Do you feel like he should

0:19:12.720 --> 0:19:18.800
<v Speaker 2>be forthcoming and provide those records just to make this

0:19:19.000 --> 0:19:22.600
<v Speaker 2>matter not drag out even longer in the courts.

0:19:22.880 --> 0:19:25.720
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, absolutely, I feel that he should bring those records forwards. Again,

0:19:25.760 --> 0:19:28.959
<v Speaker 8>you know, if we've got nothing to hide and to

0:19:29.000 --> 0:19:32.280
<v Speaker 8>say that it's still a fishing expedition, it's a legal case,

0:19:32.280 --> 0:19:33.120
<v Speaker 8>which is far from.

0:19:33.040 --> 0:19:34.080
<v Speaker 1>A fishing expedition.

0:19:34.800 --> 0:19:39.320
<v Speaker 8>So we just want that clarity and that closure and

0:19:39.359 --> 0:19:40.120
<v Speaker 8>that justice.

0:19:40.280 --> 0:19:44.119
<v Speaker 2>Now, how has Ryan's life been impacted with this crash?

0:19:44.160 --> 0:19:50.440
<v Speaker 2>And we spoke earlier about his terrible injuries, but it's

0:19:50.480 --> 0:19:53.439
<v Speaker 2>been a critical juncture in his young life, isn't it

0:19:53.480 --> 0:19:56.040
<v Speaker 2>at the age of fifteen to undergo something like that.

0:19:56.200 --> 0:20:00.480
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, the injuries that he sustained were terrible, but you

0:20:01.440 --> 0:20:05.359
<v Speaker 8>do recover from those physical injuries. It's probably been the

0:20:05.400 --> 0:20:10.320
<v Speaker 8>mental injuries that he has sustained from that. He was

0:20:10.320 --> 0:20:15.320
<v Speaker 8>incredibly traumatized from that accident. But further to compound that,

0:20:16.080 --> 0:20:20.960
<v Speaker 8>he was warned that if he spoke about that incident

0:20:21.600 --> 0:20:23.680
<v Speaker 8>that he would be in trouble by the police.

0:20:24.040 --> 0:20:25.919
<v Speaker 6>So there's a phis he gave him that warning.

0:20:26.480 --> 0:20:27.040
<v Speaker 1>I think it was.

0:20:27.000 --> 0:20:30.800
<v Speaker 8>Either the lawyers or it might have been Vic Police himself.

0:20:30.840 --> 0:20:34.040
<v Speaker 8>I'm really not too sure, but if you're a fifteen

0:20:34.080 --> 0:20:36.760
<v Speaker 8>year old boy, that would ske you to death. So

0:20:36.800 --> 0:20:40.120
<v Speaker 8>he really feels like he's been shut down and silenced

0:20:41.160 --> 0:20:43.120
<v Speaker 8>since that twenty thirteen accident.

0:20:43.960 --> 0:20:47.280
<v Speaker 2>Now you're asking the public to support your case. It

0:20:47.359 --> 0:20:50.520
<v Speaker 2>is an expensive exercise, we know, any sort of legal action.

0:20:50.640 --> 0:20:53.040
<v Speaker 2>And you've set up a go fund Me page.

0:20:53.400 --> 0:20:55.639
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, we have set up a go fund Me page.

0:20:55.880 --> 0:20:59.720
<v Speaker 8>This is a really expensive legal exercise. We're a humble

0:20:59.760 --> 0:21:05.400
<v Speaker 8>fan from humble means and we want to fight this case.

0:21:05.440 --> 0:21:08.000
<v Speaker 8>You know, we want to get justice for Ryan. I'm

0:21:08.040 --> 0:21:11.240
<v Speaker 8>sure the Andrews camp thinks. I'm sure that they can

0:21:11.320 --> 0:21:15.240
<v Speaker 8>outspend us, and I'm sure that they think that once

0:21:15.280 --> 0:21:18.000
<v Speaker 8>they've outspent us that we just simply go away and

0:21:18.040 --> 0:21:20.919
<v Speaker 8>it all gets washed under the rug yet again, so

0:21:21.280 --> 0:21:24.880
<v Speaker 8>really reaching out to those people that want to support

0:21:24.960 --> 0:21:28.280
<v Speaker 8>our case with that go fund me page.

0:21:28.359 --> 0:21:29.640
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, we've got the page up.

0:21:29.680 --> 0:21:32.840
<v Speaker 2>So if people want to back your son and his

0:21:33.080 --> 0:21:37.320
<v Speaker 2>fight to find out precisely what happened on that night,

0:21:37.800 --> 0:21:40.080
<v Speaker 2>you can do that. Peter Mullman, thank you so much

0:21:40.119 --> 0:21:42.000
<v Speaker 2>for your time. This evening, I really do appreciate you

0:21:42.040 --> 0:21:45.320
<v Speaker 2>speaking with me. Still to come a bumper edition of

0:21:45.560 --> 0:21:48.679
<v Speaker 2>Left He's Losing It, and Josh Hammer joins me with

0:21:48.800 --> 0:22:01.159
<v Speaker 2>the latest from the US. It's time for Left is

0:22:01.440 --> 0:22:05.000
<v Speaker 2>losing it and we love nothing more than hearing intersectional

0:22:05.119 --> 0:22:08.880
<v Speaker 2>race baiting and political grandstanding from sports broadcasters.

0:22:08.920 --> 0:22:12.080
<v Speaker 6>And Stephen A. Smith delivers the goods here.

0:22:12.160 --> 0:22:16.199
<v Speaker 2>Apparently all the accolades that Caitlin Clark is receiving is

0:22:16.200 --> 0:22:20.160
<v Speaker 2>because she's white, and the jealous players who are attacking

0:22:20.200 --> 0:22:22.720
<v Speaker 2>her are really the real victims here.

0:22:24.240 --> 0:22:30.160
<v Speaker 12>She is a white young lady, and she's been a

0:22:30.240 --> 0:22:35.919
<v Speaker 12>magnet in a way that has benefited the league in

0:22:36.040 --> 0:22:40.320
<v Speaker 12>ways that others have not. No matter how far we

0:22:40.440 --> 0:22:44.639
<v Speaker 12>believe that we have advanced as a society, there's still.

0:22:44.359 --> 0:22:47.320
<v Speaker 1>Such a long way to go. Because in the end.

0:22:47.720 --> 0:22:51.880
<v Speaker 12>If you're white, you're bright, you're right, and as a result,

0:22:51.960 --> 0:22:55.000
<v Speaker 12>the shine comes your way in the eyes of a

0:22:55.040 --> 0:22:56.520
<v Speaker 12>lot of people in America.

0:22:56.920 --> 0:23:01.639
<v Speaker 2>Oh, the idiocy did not end there. Apparently make America

0:23:01.800 --> 0:23:06.240
<v Speaker 2>Great again is synonymous with make America white again.

0:23:07.560 --> 0:23:11.040
<v Speaker 12>You have somebody that's a presidential candidate, What is his

0:23:11.160 --> 0:23:15.720
<v Speaker 12>claim to feed make America great again, what have people

0:23:15.800 --> 0:23:19.240
<v Speaker 12>interpreted that to me make America white again?

0:23:19.960 --> 0:23:22.840
<v Speaker 2>Well, that must be newsed to the majority of Hispanic

0:23:22.960 --> 0:23:26.520
<v Speaker 2>voters who now back Trump instead of the Democrats. It

0:23:26.600 --> 0:23:28.879
<v Speaker 2>must be newsed also to the growing number of black

0:23:29.000 --> 0:23:33.800
<v Speaker 2>voters who are abandoning the Democrats to embrace the MAGA message.

0:23:33.840 --> 0:23:37.160
<v Speaker 2>I'll be speaking to Josh Hammer about that very shortly.

0:23:37.760 --> 0:23:40.440
<v Speaker 6>Now, we love a good vox pop on this program.

0:23:40.560 --> 0:23:43.400
<v Speaker 2>Let's see what the young folk at a DC pro

0:23:43.480 --> 0:23:47.760
<v Speaker 2>Palestinian rally are thinking. Surely even this lot will not

0:23:48.040 --> 0:23:53.159
<v Speaker 2>make excuses for rape, torture, and slaughter of innocent Israelis

0:23:53.160 --> 0:23:54.400
<v Speaker 2>on October seven.

0:23:54.280 --> 0:23:56.000
<v Speaker 13>Can you guys tell me a little bit about your

0:23:56.040 --> 0:23:56.680
<v Speaker 13>goal here today?

0:23:56.880 --> 0:23:59.159
<v Speaker 14>As queer people, we have a duty to show up

0:23:59.200 --> 0:24:02.520
<v Speaker 14>here and stand in solidarity with all of the other

0:24:02.640 --> 0:24:04.080
<v Speaker 14>marginalized communities.

0:24:04.400 --> 0:24:06.200
<v Speaker 6>All this kind of started October seventh.

0:24:06.320 --> 0:24:08.080
<v Speaker 13>So what do you have to say about October seventh

0:24:08.119 --> 0:24:10.720
<v Speaker 13>and the actions of Hamas. I think definitely the protests

0:24:10.720 --> 0:24:13.480
<v Speaker 13>started October seventh, but like this issue did not start

0:24:13.480 --> 0:24:14.359
<v Speaker 13>October seventh.

0:24:14.560 --> 0:24:17.560
<v Speaker 4>I guess Ostber seventh, they like did something they came

0:24:17.600 --> 0:24:19.359
<v Speaker 4>out of like trying to like fight back, you know,

0:24:19.560 --> 0:24:21.719
<v Speaker 4>because you know they've been oppressed for so many years.

0:24:22.040 --> 0:24:25.679
<v Speaker 3>Hamas is the reaction is not a problem. Hamas is

0:24:25.720 --> 0:24:27.360
<v Speaker 3>the result of the situation.

0:24:27.480 --> 0:24:28.600
<v Speaker 5>No other young people out there.

0:24:28.600 --> 0:24:30.640
<v Speaker 13>Should they come out and protest and share this work

0:24:30.640 --> 0:24:32.359
<v Speaker 13>for Homas?

0:24:32.560 --> 0:24:33.479
<v Speaker 6>I think they should.

0:24:33.840 --> 0:24:35.600
<v Speaker 13>And your sign says from the river to the sea,

0:24:35.640 --> 0:24:36.600
<v Speaker 13>Palestine will be free.

0:24:36.680 --> 0:24:37.080
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:24:37.119 --> 0:24:39.080
<v Speaker 13>Can you tell me which river and which sea we're.

0:24:38.960 --> 0:24:39.680
<v Speaker 4>Talking about here?

0:24:42.640 --> 0:24:44.600
<v Speaker 13>This is a a You've caught me on the spot,

0:24:44.600 --> 0:24:47.200
<v Speaker 13>and I'm really horrible when I asked some questions not true,

0:24:47.240 --> 0:24:49.960
<v Speaker 13>but basically the river and the sea that border both

0:24:50.320 --> 0:24:53.479
<v Speaker 13>sides of Palestine where Israel is right now?

0:24:54.040 --> 0:24:54.240
<v Speaker 5>Dear?

0:24:54.359 --> 0:24:59.400
<v Speaker 2>And here are more college kids who are frightfully stupid.

0:25:00.720 --> 0:25:01.440
<v Speaker 4>Did you guys see that?

0:25:01.480 --> 0:25:03.399
<v Speaker 3>Al Kaya just thank you guys. They thanked all the

0:25:03.440 --> 0:25:06.000
<v Speaker 3>college protesters and everything Houthis has BLA.

0:25:06.119 --> 0:25:07.000
<v Speaker 14>I make you happy, Uh.

0:25:06.960 --> 0:25:08.520
<v Speaker 4>Huh, yeah, of course we're supported.

0:25:08.600 --> 0:25:10.280
<v Speaker 3>It makes you feel like there's actually some kind of

0:25:10.280 --> 0:25:12.400
<v Speaker 3>home for one hundred buck who was the terrorist group

0:25:12.440 --> 0:25:14.800
<v Speaker 3>behind nine to eleven No food al Qaida?

0:25:16.760 --> 0:25:18.200
<v Speaker 14>Well you think that nine to eleven.

0:25:17.960 --> 0:25:19.199
<v Speaker 5>Had some justification?

0:25:19.280 --> 0:25:20.040
<v Speaker 4>Good in some ways?

0:25:20.680 --> 0:25:22.600
<v Speaker 3>Can you guys find God's on a map?

0:25:23.240 --> 0:25:24.560
<v Speaker 4>I think we need a better moth.

0:25:24.680 --> 0:25:27.320
<v Speaker 9>You can't find it. Who is the number one sponsor

0:25:27.359 --> 0:25:29.720
<v Speaker 9>of global terrorists in America and the US New York,

0:25:30.000 --> 0:25:30.720
<v Speaker 9>New York's Estate.

0:25:32.320 --> 0:25:37.040
<v Speaker 2>That's Zach Say, who does great work exposing these lefties

0:25:37.080 --> 0:25:37.560
<v Speaker 2>losing it.

0:25:38.119 --> 0:25:40.840
<v Speaker 3>Where is slavery legal in the Middle East?

0:25:40.920 --> 0:25:43.440
<v Speaker 4>Israel, you know, and Yemen the Huthi's brought it back.

0:25:43.480 --> 0:25:45.120
<v Speaker 4>Oh my god, wow, what a houi.

0:25:45.280 --> 0:25:47.480
<v Speaker 3>Where is the only country where it's legal to be

0:25:47.520 --> 0:25:48.280
<v Speaker 3>gay in the Middle East?

0:25:48.280 --> 0:25:50.399
<v Speaker 4>I would say, Asia, Do you know? It's Israel. I

0:25:50.440 --> 0:25:53.080
<v Speaker 4>don't consider it the country. I would go to Palestine

0:25:53.119 --> 0:25:54.560
<v Speaker 4>if you went to Palace and you'd be thrown off

0:25:54.600 --> 0:25:55.080
<v Speaker 4>of a building.

0:25:55.119 --> 0:25:56.639
<v Speaker 14>All of these like the gayest city on Earth.

0:25:56.720 --> 0:25:59.520
<v Speaker 4>I doubt it's the gayest city on it. It's really gay,

0:25:59.640 --> 0:25:59.919
<v Speaker 4>you know what?

0:26:00.200 --> 0:26:03.520
<v Speaker 3>The number one slogan the Iranian government chances death to America.

0:26:03.600 --> 0:26:05.720
<v Speaker 4>Honestly, like, I'm kind of not really.

0:26:06.160 --> 0:26:10.200
<v Speaker 2>Now to California, the bluest of blue states, where the

0:26:10.359 --> 0:26:14.520
<v Speaker 2>La City Council is taking down a no U turn

0:26:14.680 --> 0:26:18.680
<v Speaker 2>sign in the name of equity, tolerance and inclusion.

0:26:19.160 --> 0:26:26.560
<v Speaker 5>What La City Council members?

0:26:26.560 --> 0:26:26.760
<v Speaker 2>You go?

0:26:26.880 --> 0:26:30.199
<v Speaker 15>Sodo Martinez and Nythia Rahman were on hand today to

0:26:30.240 --> 0:26:32.960
<v Speaker 15>help remove the signs. They say the no cruising and

0:26:33.080 --> 0:26:35.720
<v Speaker 15>no U Turn signs were put up in the nineteen

0:26:35.800 --> 0:26:38.879
<v Speaker 15>nineties to prevent people in the gay community from meeting

0:26:38.960 --> 0:26:40.240
<v Speaker 15>up with other gay people.

0:26:42.040 --> 0:26:46.320
<v Speaker 14>I was also surprised that these U turn signs were

0:26:46.359 --> 0:26:48.800
<v Speaker 14>still up. And at first, you know, they seem a

0:26:48.840 --> 0:26:51.800
<v Speaker 14>little oh okay, it's just a no U turn sign.

0:26:51.840 --> 0:26:53.600
<v Speaker 14>But when you learn the history of it and you

0:26:53.680 --> 0:26:56.840
<v Speaker 14>realize that these were used to profile gay people.

0:26:57.640 --> 0:27:02.680
<v Speaker 2>Really, these activists are almost beyond parody. The descent into

0:27:02.760 --> 0:27:06.760
<v Speaker 2>a full blown leftist lunacy is pretty much complete. And

0:27:07.359 --> 0:27:09.080
<v Speaker 2>I think it's time to check in on the Leader

0:27:09.119 --> 0:27:13.480
<v Speaker 2>of the Free World again. Another incoherent rant here he

0:27:13.560 --> 0:27:17.720
<v Speaker 2>has a little mini melt down. Watch him completely mix

0:27:17.800 --> 0:27:22.200
<v Speaker 2>up a well known expression as he casually threatens Israel.

0:27:24.359 --> 0:27:26.040
<v Speaker 1>And I know you're a typical press guy.

0:27:26.080 --> 0:27:27.840
<v Speaker 6>You're grabbing me in front of this on and said

0:27:28.560 --> 0:27:29.040
<v Speaker 6>to trust you.

0:27:29.080 --> 0:27:30.720
<v Speaker 12>As far as I throw your phone, I can add

0:27:30.760 --> 0:27:31.159
<v Speaker 12>a good.

0:27:31.080 --> 0:27:31.800
<v Speaker 6>Arm, haven't you.

0:27:31.920 --> 0:27:33.639
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to throw this away. But my point is this,

0:27:38.680 --> 0:27:39.400
<v Speaker 1>I have made.

0:27:39.280 --> 0:27:43.200
<v Speaker 16>Very clear to the Israelis that they have to do

0:27:44.000 --> 0:27:44.800
<v Speaker 16>in the New Turn.

0:27:45.480 --> 0:27:50.360
<v Speaker 1>If they don't, what's gonna happen was going to come off.

0:27:50.960 --> 0:27:54.359
<v Speaker 2>Across the West, we continue to see anti Israeli, anti

0:27:54.480 --> 0:27:59.560
<v Speaker 2>West protesters run riot. They're even harassing their fellow lefties

0:27:59.640 --> 0:28:02.160
<v Speaker 2>in the lefty heartland of Washington, DC.

0:28:03.600 --> 0:28:06.600
<v Speaker 17>People who eat at Tati, the most basic is rarely

0:28:06.720 --> 0:28:10.359
<v Speaker 17>establishment in DC. Here we have some mediocre white people

0:28:10.440 --> 0:28:11.560
<v Speaker 17>to start the day off.

0:28:12.320 --> 0:28:13.879
<v Speaker 4>More mediocre white people.

0:28:15.000 --> 0:28:17.440
<v Speaker 1>More mediocre white people. Thank you for the smiles.

0:28:17.440 --> 0:28:18.119
<v Speaker 18>They're there, a.

0:28:18.240 --> 0:28:19.359
<v Speaker 17>Chubby, mediocre white man.

0:28:19.440 --> 0:28:19.680
<v Speaker 1>Hike.

0:28:19.720 --> 0:28:22.400
<v Speaker 17>Excuse me, man, Can we ask you your stance on Palestine?

0:28:23.080 --> 0:28:27.840
<v Speaker 17>Any stance, ma'am? No stance, No stances, no, just what

0:28:27.920 --> 0:28:31.000
<v Speaker 17>do you have for brunch? Some chuk shuka? Some Palestinian

0:28:31.119 --> 0:28:35.560
<v Speaker 17>chuk shuka? Hey, by leakyaknva you guys, wire gonna give

0:28:35.560 --> 0:28:38.160
<v Speaker 17>you a pass, but next time, please skip Tata. It's

0:28:38.200 --> 0:28:39.720
<v Speaker 17>owned by devilish white people.

0:28:41.640 --> 0:28:45.200
<v Speaker 2>Joining me now is Newsweek Senior editor at Large and

0:28:45.480 --> 0:28:48.640
<v Speaker 2>Article three Projects Senior Council Josh Hammer.

0:28:49.360 --> 0:28:49.680
<v Speaker 5>Josh.

0:28:49.720 --> 0:28:53.760
<v Speaker 2>We've seen these protesters take over university campuses. They have

0:28:53.840 --> 0:28:58.040
<v Speaker 2>these illegal encampments there. We've seen them cause enormous damage

0:28:58.080 --> 0:29:02.280
<v Speaker 2>to property and open threatened people. We've even seen acts

0:29:02.280 --> 0:29:05.120
<v Speaker 2>of violence. And yet as you have written in the

0:29:05.160 --> 0:29:08.960
<v Speaker 2>New York Post. Where are the consequences? Why are Blue

0:29:09.080 --> 0:29:13.320
<v Speaker 2>cities in particular turning a blind eye to this lawlessness?

0:29:15.720 --> 0:29:18.800
<v Speaker 3>You know, Rita, It is certainly not for lack of

0:29:18.840 --> 0:29:22.360
<v Speaker 3>available options. There are any number of options that federal

0:29:22.400 --> 0:29:25.720
<v Speaker 3>prosecutors have. I mean, there is the ku Klux Klanak

0:29:25.800 --> 0:29:28.080
<v Speaker 3>going back to eighteen seventy one, which is passing the

0:29:28.120 --> 0:29:31.360
<v Speaker 3>aftermath of the American Civil War, which basically bans people

0:29:31.400 --> 0:29:34.360
<v Speaker 3>from a mass conspiracy, especially if you go in disguise,

0:29:34.360 --> 0:29:36.480
<v Speaker 3>if you wear masks, like a lot of these protesters

0:29:36.560 --> 0:29:39.000
<v Speaker 3>have been doing, you are forbidden from doing that and masks,

0:29:39.000 --> 0:29:43.160
<v Speaker 3>so as to deprive your fellow American citizens of their

0:29:43.200 --> 0:29:46.640
<v Speaker 3>constitutional rights. There is a civil analog to that. There was,

0:29:46.680 --> 0:29:49.920
<v Speaker 3>of course material support for terrorism, which is a federal

0:29:49.960 --> 0:29:52.760
<v Speaker 3>criminal offense. But the point is that whether at a

0:29:52.800 --> 0:29:55.160
<v Speaker 3>federal level or at a local level, when it comes

0:29:55.200 --> 0:30:00.680
<v Speaker 3>to lower level local crimes such as harassment, intimidation, a

0:30:00.720 --> 0:30:02.600
<v Speaker 3>lot of this stuff on the street, you know, you

0:30:02.600 --> 0:30:05.440
<v Speaker 3>don't have a free speech right Riata in our country.

0:30:05.440 --> 0:30:07.800
<v Speaker 3>You don't have a first Memen free speech right to

0:30:07.960 --> 0:30:10.800
<v Speaker 3>intimidate and to harass people. You have a free speech

0:30:10.880 --> 0:30:13.120
<v Speaker 3>right to make your opinions known on the issues of

0:30:13.160 --> 0:30:15.480
<v Speaker 3>the day. You don't have a right to get into

0:30:15.520 --> 0:30:18.040
<v Speaker 3>someone's face and to say that you want them to die,

0:30:18.160 --> 0:30:20.840
<v Speaker 3>that you want to call for genocide. This was the

0:30:20.960 --> 0:30:23.040
<v Speaker 3>error that the Harvard president made, of course, in the

0:30:23.040 --> 0:30:25.960
<v Speaker 3>infamous December twenty twenty three congressional testimony that led to

0:30:26.000 --> 0:30:29.200
<v Speaker 3>her resignation. But the points here, and this is what

0:30:29.240 --> 0:30:31.000
<v Speaker 3>I wrote about for the New York Posts. Whether it's

0:30:31.000 --> 0:30:33.480
<v Speaker 3>the federal level, whether it's the local level, or anywhere else,

0:30:33.640 --> 0:30:36.400
<v Speaker 3>there was a very very simple and straightforward reason the

0:30:36.440 --> 0:30:39.719
<v Speaker 3>prosecutors and law enforcement in general are not bringing these charges,

0:30:39.760 --> 0:30:43.280
<v Speaker 3>which is that one, they probably largely at least left

0:30:43.320 --> 0:30:47.360
<v Speaker 3>wing jurisdictions, agree with the underlying conduct. Two, as we

0:30:47.440 --> 0:30:50.200
<v Speaker 3>saw in the twenty twenty Antifa Black Lives Matter riots,

0:30:50.200 --> 0:30:52.040
<v Speaker 3>and as we've seen again since October seven, these are

0:30:52.120 --> 0:30:54.920
<v Speaker 3>very violent people. Read, these are violent people who take

0:30:55.000 --> 0:30:57.920
<v Speaker 3>no prisoners. These prosecutors and cops don't want to be

0:30:58.000 --> 0:31:01.440
<v Speaker 3>on these miscreants bad side any more than anyone else

0:31:01.480 --> 0:31:03.840
<v Speaker 3>wants to be. So they agree with the Wolk orthodoxy,

0:31:03.920 --> 0:31:05.840
<v Speaker 3>and they don't want to get themselves hurt. What that

0:31:05.920 --> 0:31:09.520
<v Speaker 3>creates obviously is a toxic, toxic stew America is currently

0:31:09.560 --> 0:31:12.720
<v Speaker 3>failing its Jews, and by extension, is not merely just

0:31:12.760 --> 0:31:14.440
<v Speaker 3>feeling its Jews, is feeling us off.

0:31:16.880 --> 0:31:17.440
<v Speaker 5>Absolutely.

0:31:17.440 --> 0:31:20.320
<v Speaker 2>And we've got this two tier policing, this two tier

0:31:20.600 --> 0:31:24.800
<v Speaker 2>justice system, where if you were out there protesting from

0:31:24.840 --> 0:31:28.680
<v Speaker 2>some right wing cause, you would have the authorities come

0:31:28.760 --> 0:31:31.400
<v Speaker 2>down on you like a ton of bricks. But if

0:31:31.440 --> 0:31:35.480
<v Speaker 2>they agree with you viewpoint, you can get up to

0:31:35.520 --> 0:31:38.000
<v Speaker 2>the mischief we've seen, and the calling it mischief is

0:31:38.040 --> 0:31:42.640
<v Speaker 2>really underplaying it, because sometimes it is just violent intimidation

0:31:43.200 --> 0:31:47.640
<v Speaker 2>and nothing else. Now, even a broken clock is right

0:31:47.760 --> 0:31:50.280
<v Speaker 2>twice a day. And so I was interested in this

0:31:50.360 --> 0:31:54.920
<v Speaker 2>analysis from CNN on the historic levels of support the

0:31:55.000 --> 0:31:59.880
<v Speaker 2>Republicans are getting from black folk under Trump. They are

0:32:00.080 --> 0:32:04.520
<v Speaker 2>perplex the f I at CNN, but they acknowledge this

0:32:04.640 --> 0:32:06.240
<v Speaker 2>is a seismic shift.

0:32:07.560 --> 0:32:10.400
<v Speaker 18>And more than that, it's not just that Joe Biden

0:32:10.520 --> 0:32:13.640
<v Speaker 18>is losing ground, it's that Donald Trump is gaining ground.

0:32:13.720 --> 0:32:16.200
<v Speaker 18>You go from seven percent single digits at this point

0:32:16.240 --> 0:32:20.840
<v Speaker 18>in twenty twenty to now twenty one percent. And again, John,

0:32:21.080 --> 0:32:22.840
<v Speaker 18>I keep looking for signs that this is going to

0:32:22.880 --> 0:32:25.560
<v Speaker 18>go back to normal, and I don't see it yet

0:32:25.560 --> 0:32:28.160
<v Speaker 18>in the polling of anything. Right now, we're careening towards

0:32:28.200 --> 0:32:31.600
<v Speaker 18>a historic performance for Republican presidential candidate, the likes of

0:32:31.640 --> 0:32:35.440
<v Speaker 18>which we have not seen in six decades. Look at

0:32:35.440 --> 0:32:38.840
<v Speaker 18>black voters under the age of fifty. Holy cow, folks,

0:32:38.840 --> 0:32:41.040
<v Speaker 18>Holy cal Look at this. Joe Biden was up by

0:32:41.080 --> 0:32:43.400
<v Speaker 18>eighty points among this group back at this point in

0:32:43.440 --> 0:32:46.640
<v Speaker 18>twenty twenty. Look at where that margin haskreem down towards

0:32:46.800 --> 0:32:50.920
<v Speaker 18>it's now just get this, thirty seven points. That lead

0:32:51.000 --> 0:32:54.760
<v Speaker 18>has dropped by more than half. Mister Berman Home, I

0:32:55.240 --> 0:32:58.600
<v Speaker 18>just never seen anything like this. I'm like speechless because

0:32:58.720 --> 0:33:00.760
<v Speaker 18>you always look at history and you go, okay, this

0:33:00.800 --> 0:33:04.360
<v Speaker 18>is a historic moment. If this polling is anywhere near correct,

0:33:04.520 --> 0:33:06.600
<v Speaker 18>we are looking at an historic moment right now. We're

0:33:06.640 --> 0:33:09.360
<v Speaker 18>Black voters under the age of fifty, which have historically

0:33:09.440 --> 0:33:12.600
<v Speaker 18>been such a big part of the Democratic coalition, are

0:33:12.720 --> 0:33:14.320
<v Speaker 18>leaving it in droves.

0:33:15.880 --> 0:33:20.080
<v Speaker 2>Josha Donald Trump has launched his Black Voter Coalition group.

0:33:20.120 --> 0:33:23.800
<v Speaker 2>His campaign is saying historic rates of black voters are

0:33:23.840 --> 0:33:25.880
<v Speaker 2>now behind the Republican candidate.

0:33:26.480 --> 0:33:28.360
<v Speaker 6>And if those CNN figures.

0:33:28.080 --> 0:33:32.520
<v Speaker 2>Are accurate, what's that going to mean for the Democrats

0:33:32.640 --> 0:33:37.000
<v Speaker 2>going forward. They have just relied on getting ninety percent

0:33:37.120 --> 0:33:40.280
<v Speaker 2>plus of the black vote for decades.

0:33:40.320 --> 0:33:40.600
<v Speaker 5>Now.

0:33:42.560 --> 0:33:45.400
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you know, Red, I'm trying not to leugh too

0:33:45.400 --> 0:33:48.040
<v Speaker 3>hard over here because Harry Enton is the CNN d

0:33:48.120 --> 0:33:50.280
<v Speaker 3>and analyst that we just saw. I've actually known Harry

0:33:50.280 --> 0:33:52.200
<v Speaker 3>since he and I were both eighteen years old. He

0:33:52.240 --> 0:33:54.280
<v Speaker 3>and I go way back. He's probably the only straight

0:33:54.280 --> 0:33:57.280
<v Speaker 3>shooter at CNN. He is not a far left liberal guy.

0:33:57.520 --> 0:33:59.520
<v Speaker 3>He calls it like he sees it. But Harry knows

0:33:59.560 --> 0:34:02.280
<v Speaker 3>his audience and he knows of the CNN audience is

0:34:02.320 --> 0:34:04.440
<v Speaker 3>a liberal audience. So he's just trying to do what

0:34:04.520 --> 0:34:07.040
<v Speaker 3>any good television broadcasters should do, which is just trying

0:34:07.080 --> 0:34:10.280
<v Speaker 3>to be very honest with your audience. And here honesty

0:34:10.400 --> 0:34:14.719
<v Speaker 3>means that Joe Biden's intersectional coalition is falling apart. Black

0:34:14.800 --> 0:34:17.960
<v Speaker 3>voters are peeling away at record pace for very simple

0:34:18.040 --> 0:34:20.480
<v Speaker 3>bread and butter reasons. Because the economy in the United

0:34:20.520 --> 0:34:23.840
<v Speaker 3>States has never been good. Bidenomics they tease it out

0:34:23.920 --> 0:34:26.520
<v Speaker 3>like a wet BALLOONA went absolutely nowhere last year. They

0:34:26.520 --> 0:34:30.279
<v Speaker 3>haven't talked about Bidenomics since November. They for a little while.

0:34:30.320 --> 0:34:32.000
<v Speaker 3>That's all I talked about. Then they decide that they

0:34:32.040 --> 0:34:35.600
<v Speaker 3>couldn't bamboozol Americans into thinking the bidnominous was anything other

0:34:35.680 --> 0:34:38.240
<v Speaker 3>than a stink bomb, so they let it go. Inflation,

0:34:38.360 --> 0:34:40.719
<v Speaker 3>of course, reached nine point one percent to forty year

0:34:40.800 --> 0:34:42.600
<v Speaker 3>high back on the summer of twenty twenty two. The

0:34:42.600 --> 0:34:45.759
<v Speaker 3>economy formally entered a recession back on that same year,

0:34:45.800 --> 0:34:48.600
<v Speaker 3>twenty twenty two. So Black voters are peeling away from

0:34:48.680 --> 0:34:52.480
<v Speaker 3>Joe Biden for the same reason that many underrepresented minorities,

0:34:52.560 --> 0:34:54.680
<v Speaker 3>Hispanic voters among them, are peeling away, which is that

0:34:54.760 --> 0:34:57.120
<v Speaker 3>they don't like the way that the country is being

0:34:57.160 --> 0:35:00.359
<v Speaker 3>governed right now. And if these numbers are real, and

0:35:00.400 --> 0:35:02.759
<v Speaker 3>as Harry said right there on CNN, we have every

0:35:02.760 --> 0:35:06.160
<v Speaker 3>indication to believe that the shift actually is real, especially

0:35:06.160 --> 0:35:08.680
<v Speaker 3>for young black men. Young black men are now supporting

0:35:08.719 --> 0:35:13.040
<v Speaker 3>Trump twenty five sometimes even thirty percent in polls that

0:35:13.239 --> 0:35:16.560
<v Speaker 3>could easily could easily make or break the election when

0:35:16.600 --> 0:35:20.279
<v Speaker 3>it comes to states like Michigan, Georgia, and North Carolina Pennsylvania,

0:35:20.600 --> 0:35:24.000
<v Speaker 3>all of which have sizeable Black populations there. But the

0:35:24.040 --> 0:35:26.399
<v Speaker 3>broader point to read is that the entire post two

0:35:26.440 --> 0:35:29.600
<v Speaker 3>thousand and eight Barack Obama Joe Biden Ara Democratic Party,

0:35:29.800 --> 0:35:33.280
<v Speaker 3>which is built on the house of cards of intersectionalism

0:35:33.400 --> 0:35:37.120
<v Speaker 3>and identity politics. It's all falling apart right now. They're

0:35:37.160 --> 0:35:38.880
<v Speaker 3>stuff between a rock and a hard place when it

0:35:38.880 --> 0:35:41.640
<v Speaker 3>comes to the Middle East conflict. Obviously, they can't make

0:35:41.640 --> 0:35:44.399
<v Speaker 3>the error voters in Michigan happy, but then they can't

0:35:44.400 --> 0:35:46.960
<v Speaker 3>make the Jewish voters happy either, or the majority of

0:35:46.960 --> 0:35:49.719
<v Speaker 3>Americans who support Israel for the matter. So everywhere you look,

0:35:49.760 --> 0:35:52.560
<v Speaker 3>this whole identity politics thing is falling apart for them,

0:35:52.880 --> 0:35:54.680
<v Speaker 3>and you know, frankly, as a conservative, I kind of

0:35:54.719 --> 0:35:55.239
<v Speaker 3>love to see it.

0:35:57.800 --> 0:36:02.160
<v Speaker 2>And you're absolutely right about this into sectional coalition falling apart,

0:36:02.200 --> 0:36:05.120
<v Speaker 2>because it's not just black voters leaving the Democrats. There

0:36:05.120 --> 0:36:09.839
<v Speaker 2>are increasing numbers of other ethnic groups, including Hispanics, who

0:36:09.880 --> 0:36:13.560
<v Speaker 2>now prefer Trump to the Democrats. A number of polls

0:36:13.560 --> 0:36:17.240
<v Speaker 2>have shown a majority of Hispanic voters backing the Republicans,

0:36:17.320 --> 0:36:20.880
<v Speaker 2>and a new poll shows that a majority of registered

0:36:20.960 --> 0:36:24.480
<v Speaker 2>voters from all backgrounds are now in favor of mass

0:36:24.520 --> 0:36:29.040
<v Speaker 2>deportations of illegal immigrants. According to a new yek Of poll,

0:36:29.200 --> 0:36:33.880
<v Speaker 2>sixty two percent want to see mass deportations, and that

0:36:34.080 --> 0:36:39.719
<v Speaker 2>includes josh A clear majority of Hispanic voters, and I've

0:36:39.880 --> 0:36:44.279
<v Speaker 2>long said that Hispanics will become part of the Republican

0:36:44.400 --> 0:36:49.960
<v Speaker 2>base that are typically socially conservative. They are aspirational, and

0:36:50.000 --> 0:36:52.440
<v Speaker 2>the Democrats have really little to offer them at the

0:36:52.480 --> 0:36:56.200
<v Speaker 2>moment other than victimhood and pronouns.

0:36:57.640 --> 0:36:57.960
<v Speaker 5>Yeah.

0:36:58.000 --> 0:37:00.160
<v Speaker 3>Look, I live in South Florida. I mean this is

0:37:00.200 --> 0:37:03.360
<v Speaker 3>kind of the epicenter of the Hispanic part of America.

0:37:03.480 --> 0:37:05.839
<v Speaker 3>Moving to the right, I mean Miami Day County, which

0:37:05.880 --> 0:37:09.279
<v Speaker 3>is the most populous county in all of Florida. You know,

0:37:09.400 --> 0:37:12.200
<v Speaker 3>Ron de Santis won that by double digits in his

0:37:12.200 --> 0:37:13.600
<v Speaker 3>group of toyal reelection.

0:37:13.320 --> 0:37:13.920
<v Speaker 1>Twenty twenty two.

0:37:13.920 --> 0:37:16.320
<v Speaker 3>He won Miami Day County, which is a seventy percent

0:37:16.400 --> 0:37:19.280
<v Speaker 3>Hispanic county. He won it by eleven points. Marco Rubio,

0:37:19.400 --> 0:37:21.719
<v Speaker 3>our center here in Florida, won by ten points. And

0:37:21.760 --> 0:37:23.480
<v Speaker 3>a lot of people look on that and they say, oh,

0:37:23.520 --> 0:37:25.960
<v Speaker 3>it's Miami Day County. It's just these Cubans. They're all

0:37:26.040 --> 0:37:29.720
<v Speaker 3>conservative because they're fleeing the castros and communism. It's actually

0:37:29.760 --> 0:37:32.680
<v Speaker 3>not true. So in Osceola County here in Florida, which

0:37:32.680 --> 0:37:36.279
<v Speaker 3>is a suburb of Orlando, heavily Puerto Rican County, Puerto

0:37:36.360 --> 0:37:39.640
<v Speaker 3>Rican's historically a very very liberal demographic here in the

0:37:39.719 --> 0:37:43.920
<v Speaker 3>United States. Osciola County, Florida actually voted for Romda Santis

0:37:43.920 --> 0:37:46.440
<v Speaker 3>and Marco Rubio as well in twenty twenty two. You know,

0:37:46.480 --> 0:37:49.680
<v Speaker 3>going back to twenty twenty, even in heavily Mexicans South Texas,

0:37:49.680 --> 0:37:52.000
<v Speaker 3>down in the Rio Grand Valley, you had ninety to

0:37:52.040 --> 0:37:55.000
<v Speaker 3>ninety five percent Hispanic counties like Star County, Texas, is

0:37:55.080 --> 0:37:58.560
<v Speaker 3>Upota County, Texas, which some of them were actually outright

0:37:58.600 --> 0:38:01.160
<v Speaker 3>breaking for Trump, but then Trump was actually very narrowly

0:38:01.200 --> 0:38:04.320
<v Speaker 3>losing others by single digits. The broader shift is happening,

0:38:04.320 --> 0:38:06.080
<v Speaker 3>And like I was just talking about with black voters,

0:38:06.120 --> 0:38:08.440
<v Speaker 3>it's the same thing for these Hispanic voters. Reader. They

0:38:08.480 --> 0:38:10.640
<v Speaker 3>don't like the way the economy is doing. They want

0:38:10.680 --> 0:38:13.520
<v Speaker 3>their communities to be secure, They want people to be

0:38:13.520 --> 0:38:16.120
<v Speaker 3>able to walk the streets safely without fear of being mugs,

0:38:16.360 --> 0:38:19.880
<v Speaker 3>and they care about general public safety and deterring violence

0:38:20.000 --> 0:38:21.840
<v Speaker 3>just as much as white voters or anyone else. So

0:38:21.880 --> 0:38:24.160
<v Speaker 3>I am not surprised to see these data points, but

0:38:24.280 --> 0:38:26.360
<v Speaker 3>I certainly do hope that they are giving Democrats a

0:38:26.400 --> 0:38:27.040
<v Speaker 3>lot of heartburn.

0:38:29.520 --> 0:38:33.799
<v Speaker 2>Now to Texas and the Department of Justice is indicted.

0:38:33.920 --> 0:38:38.480
<v Speaker 2>A whistleblowing doctor exposed how a Texas hospital was continuing

0:38:38.520 --> 0:38:43.279
<v Speaker 2>to perform sex change procedes and treatments on children as

0:38:43.360 --> 0:38:46.879
<v Speaker 2>young as eleven despite announcing that were shutting down their

0:38:46.920 --> 0:38:51.880
<v Speaker 2>gender clinic after Texas bans surgical procedures and prescription treatments

0:38:51.880 --> 0:38:57.160
<v Speaker 2>for transgender youth. Doctor Ethan Haim, a surgeon at the

0:38:57.239 --> 0:39:01.360
<v Speaker 2>Texas Children's Hospital, is accused of accessing and obtaining information

0:39:02.680 --> 0:39:07.759
<v Speaker 2>belonging to these patients without authorization, and it's convicted. He

0:39:07.840 --> 0:39:10.759
<v Speaker 2>faces up to ten years in federal prison and a

0:39:10.840 --> 0:39:13.360
<v Speaker 2>two hundred and fifty thousand dollars maximum fine.

0:39:13.600 --> 0:39:15.200
<v Speaker 6>Tell me about this case, Josh.

0:39:15.239 --> 0:39:19.279
<v Speaker 2>This seems to be a whistleblower who is being punished

0:39:19.400 --> 0:39:22.719
<v Speaker 2>for doing the right thing. How could he possibly expose

0:39:22.800 --> 0:39:25.279
<v Speaker 2>this if he didn't access that information?

0:39:27.280 --> 0:39:27.480
<v Speaker 1>Right?

0:39:27.520 --> 0:39:32.279
<v Speaker 3>So the DOJ is alleging that he They're saying that

0:39:32.320 --> 0:39:36.720
<v Speaker 3>he violated HIPPA, which is a patient privacy protection statue

0:39:36.719 --> 0:39:39.440
<v Speaker 3>that existed in the United States for a number of

0:39:39.560 --> 0:39:43.040
<v Speaker 3>decades now. But the point here, Rita, is that they're

0:39:43.080 --> 0:39:45.879
<v Speaker 3>picking the target very carefully here. You know, the very

0:39:45.960 --> 0:39:49.160
<v Speaker 3>nature of prosecution is that prosecutoral resources are scarce here.

0:39:49.200 --> 0:39:50.840
<v Speaker 3>I mean you learn this as a first year lawsuitent.

0:39:50.920 --> 0:39:54.520
<v Speaker 3>Going back to criminal law course, no prosecutor literally has

0:39:54.560 --> 0:39:57.279
<v Speaker 3>the manpower, the time, the resource, or anything in order

0:39:57.320 --> 0:40:01.000
<v Speaker 3>to prosecute every possible offense that comes across or her jurisdiction.

0:40:01.320 --> 0:40:04.520
<v Speaker 3>The fact that they are going after after this whistleblower,

0:40:04.560 --> 0:40:08.120
<v Speaker 3>who again audibly and nobly was blowing the whistle because

0:40:08.160 --> 0:40:11.360
<v Speaker 3>the Texas Children's Hospital was lying. That they were lying.

0:40:11.440 --> 0:40:14.440
<v Speaker 3>They said that they were cutting back on these genital

0:40:14.520 --> 0:40:18.520
<v Speaker 3>mutilations so called surgeries on chemical castration. They said in

0:40:18.600 --> 0:40:21.640
<v Speaker 3>response to pressure from Texas Attorney General Ken Pax and

0:40:21.640 --> 0:40:23.680
<v Speaker 3>Governor Greg Gavit. They said, in response to that that

0:40:23.719 --> 0:40:26.440
<v Speaker 3>they were finally shutting it down, and they lied about it.

0:40:26.480 --> 0:40:28.400
<v Speaker 3>That is why this whistleblower came out and said, you

0:40:28.400 --> 0:40:31.080
<v Speaker 3>know what, mister Governor, mister train General, they're telling you

0:40:31.120 --> 0:40:32.880
<v Speaker 3>one thing, they're not doing it. So the fact that

0:40:32.920 --> 0:40:36.400
<v Speaker 3>he's being prosecuted for doing the righteous, noble, just and

0:40:36.520 --> 0:40:40.560
<v Speaker 3>correct thing here on dubious statutory grounds says everything they

0:40:40.560 --> 0:40:45.239
<v Speaker 3>need to know about America's further further unraveling weaponization of

0:40:45.239 --> 0:40:47.160
<v Speaker 3>our law enforcement apparatus.

0:40:49.080 --> 0:40:52.200
<v Speaker 2>And I've saying that trust in the justice system at

0:40:52.440 --> 0:40:55.719
<v Speaker 2>historic laws in America and we know why. It's very

0:40:55.800 --> 0:40:59.160
<v Speaker 2>much a justified point of view. Josh Hammer, always a

0:40:59.160 --> 0:41:00.000
<v Speaker 2>pleasure to hear from you.

0:41:00.840 --> 0:41:01.560
<v Speaker 5>Still to come.

0:41:01.680 --> 0:41:05.160
<v Speaker 2>The Hawthorne racism saga, i'm one of the most shameful

0:41:05.200 --> 0:41:07.520
<v Speaker 2>episodes in Australian media.

0:41:07.719 --> 0:41:09.319
<v Speaker 6>So Vie Ellsworth joins me.

0:41:09.440 --> 0:41:20.759
<v Speaker 2>Next joining me now is media writer for The Australian.

0:41:20.880 --> 0:41:22.040
<v Speaker 6>Sophie Ellsworth.

0:41:22.200 --> 0:41:24.840
<v Speaker 2>Let's start with what is one of the most shameful

0:41:24.920 --> 0:41:28.040
<v Speaker 2>episodes in the Australian media and the sports media. But

0:41:28.800 --> 0:41:31.880
<v Speaker 2>this story went further than just the sports media, and

0:41:31.920 --> 0:41:35.880
<v Speaker 2>it's the way three men were defamed as racist monsters

0:41:35.920 --> 0:41:40.560
<v Speaker 2>after the ABC published Elaked Report, a deeply flawed report

0:41:41.040 --> 0:41:44.880
<v Speaker 2>into the culture at Hawthorne Football Club. Last week, former

0:41:44.960 --> 0:41:48.520
<v Speaker 2>Hawthorne coach Alistair Clarkson, now the coach of North Melbourne,

0:41:48.560 --> 0:41:51.600
<v Speaker 2>spoke about his desire for the saga to end up

0:41:51.640 --> 0:41:54.640
<v Speaker 2>in the Federal Court so he can finally put his

0:41:54.800 --> 0:41:56.000
<v Speaker 2>side of the case forward.

0:41:57.320 --> 0:42:00.239
<v Speaker 16>And that's what's perplexing for focus, myself and Jayson. We've

0:42:00.280 --> 0:42:05.759
<v Speaker 16>got to six over six hundred days later and we

0:42:05.840 --> 0:42:08.920
<v Speaker 16>still haven't had the opportunity either through Hawthorne, through the AFL,

0:42:09.040 --> 0:42:12.279
<v Speaker 16>through the AFL investigation, through the Human Rights Commission, nor

0:42:12.320 --> 0:42:16.839
<v Speaker 16>a court of law to actually tell our story. And

0:42:17.360 --> 0:42:21.360
<v Speaker 16>ironically enough, the three people were actually quite going for

0:42:21.360 --> 0:42:23.400
<v Speaker 16>it to go to the federal court as Fergus, myself

0:42:23.400 --> 0:42:25.560
<v Speaker 16>and Jas because that will provide a platform to be

0:42:25.560 --> 0:42:27.400
<v Speaker 16>able to tell our story.

0:42:27.960 --> 0:42:32.920
<v Speaker 2>This is a fascinating case. I remember writing about this, well,

0:42:33.000 --> 0:42:35.840
<v Speaker 2>that was it September twenty twenty two, whenever this story

0:42:35.840 --> 0:42:40.960
<v Speaker 2>first broke and you looked at some of the allegations,

0:42:41.000 --> 0:42:45.240
<v Speaker 2>some of the claims that were just being accepted uncritically,

0:42:46.160 --> 0:42:49.600
<v Speaker 2>and the way people were condemning these men that were

0:42:49.640 --> 0:42:54.920
<v Speaker 2>guilty as charged was incredible because there were massive holes

0:42:55.200 --> 0:43:00.040
<v Speaker 2>in that entire report. There were huge concerns, and yet

0:43:00.440 --> 0:43:05.640
<v Speaker 2>the media almost uniformly ignored those to just go after

0:43:05.719 --> 0:43:09.080
<v Speaker 2>these three men and destroy them. And for a period

0:43:09.160 --> 0:43:11.520
<v Speaker 2>all three had to step down from their roles and

0:43:11.800 --> 0:43:14.160
<v Speaker 2>things have turned around now, but it looked like and

0:43:14.239 --> 0:43:18.160
<v Speaker 2>I was hearing from season Footy types predicting that Alistair

0:43:18.800 --> 0:43:22.080
<v Speaker 2>Clarkson Chris Fagan, coach of Brisbane, they would never coach

0:43:22.120 --> 0:43:25.319
<v Speaker 2>again because of how they were perceived after this story.

0:43:25.040 --> 0:43:26.680
<v Speaker 5>Broke a terrible situation.

0:43:26.840 --> 0:43:30.400
<v Speaker 19>Reata and you've written about this many times and called

0:43:30.400 --> 0:43:31.840
<v Speaker 19>it out right from the beginning.

0:43:32.160 --> 0:43:33.960
<v Speaker 5>It was flimsy from the beginning.

0:43:34.160 --> 0:43:37.040
<v Speaker 19>And this is the concern with the media is sometimes

0:43:37.040 --> 0:43:41.920
<v Speaker 19>it's trial by media. It's guilty until you've proven innocent,

0:43:42.040 --> 0:43:43.200
<v Speaker 19>not the other way round.

0:43:43.480 --> 0:43:45.920
<v Speaker 5>And I think that was really problematic with this story.

0:43:45.960 --> 0:43:49.719
<v Speaker 19>And you can see when Alistair Clarkson spoke there, he's

0:43:49.760 --> 0:43:52.319
<v Speaker 19>obviously still very distressed by them.

0:43:52.440 --> 0:43:56.200
<v Speaker 2>He went out on stress leave, that's right, last year.

0:43:56.120 --> 0:43:56.680
<v Speaker 5>That's right.

0:43:56.760 --> 0:43:59.600
<v Speaker 19>So the fallout from this has been shocking and it

0:43:59.640 --> 0:44:03.040
<v Speaker 19>hasn't been a good reflection on the ABC, on the

0:44:03.080 --> 0:44:05.719
<v Speaker 19>AFL or Hawthorne Football Club.

0:44:05.520 --> 0:44:08.520
<v Speaker 2>In my view, No, I think there are many answers

0:44:08.840 --> 0:44:11.120
<v Speaker 2>for the Hawthorn Food Club, many questions for the Hawthorn

0:44:11.440 --> 0:44:13.600
<v Speaker 2>Bok Club to answer, and they may be facing a

0:44:13.800 --> 0:44:17.960
<v Speaker 2>multimillion dollar lawsuit as well, so they've got all sorts

0:44:18.000 --> 0:44:21.719
<v Speaker 2>of issues to contend with in the coming years off field. Now,

0:44:21.840 --> 0:44:25.600
<v Speaker 2>let's talk about nine and their ongoing woes. Kerie Anne

0:44:25.640 --> 0:44:28.719
<v Speaker 2>Kennley is the latest start to speak out about the

0:44:28.880 --> 0:44:34.040
<v Speaker 2>entrenched culture of the network. Has there been any response

0:44:34.200 --> 0:44:37.360
<v Speaker 2>from nine to what Kerie Ane Kenley told you in

0:44:37.400 --> 0:44:38.080
<v Speaker 2>the Australian.

0:44:38.280 --> 0:44:42.120
<v Speaker 19>So basically nine, you know, keeping their responses very careful

0:44:42.120 --> 0:44:45.440
<v Speaker 19>with all of these allegations, RITA, because we now have

0:44:45.600 --> 0:44:50.520
<v Speaker 19>the external review that is undergoing in the News and

0:44:50.600 --> 0:44:54.480
<v Speaker 19>Current Affairs Division within nine, so they are not saying

0:44:54.560 --> 0:44:57.880
<v Speaker 19>much other than Mike Sneezeby has come out yesterday in

0:44:57.920 --> 0:45:00.799
<v Speaker 19>an email to all staff and said basic, we need

0:45:00.840 --> 0:45:04.000
<v Speaker 19>to change the culture at nine. He admits there were

0:45:04.440 --> 0:45:06.920
<v Speaker 19>wrongs in the past and they need to change the

0:45:06.960 --> 0:45:09.080
<v Speaker 19>culture in order to move forward.

0:45:09.080 --> 0:45:12.040
<v Speaker 5>But Nine have been very careful what they say.

0:45:11.800 --> 0:45:16.879
<v Speaker 19>Because this external investigation is still afoot and could take

0:45:16.920 --> 0:45:20.400
<v Speaker 19>some months. But apparently from what I have been told

0:45:20.440 --> 0:45:24.840
<v Speaker 19>from numerous sources is that dozens of women and females,

0:45:25.080 --> 0:45:30.120
<v Speaker 19>both former and current staff, are making complaint Dozen.

0:45:30.520 --> 0:45:31.800
<v Speaker 5>That's what I've been told.

0:45:32.239 --> 0:45:34.680
<v Speaker 2>Well, are we going to have any clarity once this

0:45:34.960 --> 0:45:38.520
<v Speaker 2>review is completed about what their findings are. Is this

0:45:38.560 --> 0:45:42.000
<v Speaker 2>school going to be kept in house or will they

0:45:42.040 --> 0:45:44.960
<v Speaker 2>actually come clean because they did try to hide this.

0:45:45.080 --> 0:45:47.040
<v Speaker 6>It was the Australian that broke this story.

0:45:47.680 --> 0:45:47.960
<v Speaker 5>RITA.

0:45:48.080 --> 0:45:51.280
<v Speaker 19>They have to well have said to staff they will

0:45:51.480 --> 0:45:56.200
<v Speaker 19>share the findings when it's handed down by the Advisory

0:45:56.200 --> 0:45:59.960
<v Speaker 19>Group Intersection, and this will have to be made public.

0:46:00.160 --> 0:46:03.239
<v Speaker 2>I mean this is impacted Nine. This has impacted them.

0:46:03.440 --> 0:46:05.440
<v Speaker 2>They've lost their chair Peter Costello.

0:46:05.840 --> 0:46:09.280
<v Speaker 19>You know, they've had managers move, They've had Darren Wick

0:46:09.400 --> 0:46:13.239
<v Speaker 19>leave the business. They've had such widespread problems. Their share

0:46:13.239 --> 0:46:16.319
<v Speaker 19>price has fallen too, So this saga is far from over.

0:46:17.160 --> 0:46:22.040
<v Speaker 2>Meanwhile, seven is also facing some challenges. They've also had

0:46:22.080 --> 0:46:24.960
<v Speaker 2>allegations of cultural issues.

0:46:24.520 --> 0:46:27.439
<v Speaker 6>And they have a new news boss.

0:46:27.120 --> 0:46:30.960
<v Speaker 2>Who has hired a comedian from the ABC, Mark Humphreys,

0:46:31.040 --> 0:46:33.399
<v Speaker 2>to refresh their news coverager.

0:46:34.280 --> 0:46:35.880
<v Speaker 6>I'm not sure how this is going to work. Do

0:46:35.960 --> 0:46:36.239
<v Speaker 6>we have.

0:46:36.200 --> 0:46:41.880
<v Speaker 2>Any information about how Mark Comphreys came to be hired

0:46:41.960 --> 0:46:44.120
<v Speaker 2>and what his role is going to be within the

0:46:44.160 --> 0:46:44.680
<v Speaker 2>news team.

0:46:45.080 --> 0:46:47.880
<v Speaker 19>So Retel, we've obviously got a new news director at

0:46:47.960 --> 0:46:52.359
<v Speaker 19>Channel seven, Anthony de Segli, and he has made this

0:46:52.440 --> 0:46:56.960
<v Speaker 19>bold decision to insert Mark Humphreys into the six pm

0:46:57.040 --> 0:47:01.600
<v Speaker 19>news bulletin in Sydney. Mark Humphrey's is obviously a comedian,

0:47:01.920 --> 0:47:05.480
<v Speaker 19>He's done this sort of work before, and Anthony Decegli

0:47:05.560 --> 0:47:08.319
<v Speaker 19>is trying to shake things up at seven. So Mark

0:47:08.360 --> 0:47:11.000
<v Speaker 19>Comfreys will start at the network in the coming weeks.

0:47:11.120 --> 0:47:13.520
<v Speaker 19>It will be on a weekly basis. This sort of

0:47:13.600 --> 0:47:17.440
<v Speaker 19>comedy inserted into the news. Now, I wonder how this

0:47:17.560 --> 0:47:20.160
<v Speaker 19>is going to work, reader, when you have a serious

0:47:20.239 --> 0:47:23.160
<v Speaker 19>news bulletin and suddenly trying to inject news.

0:47:23.160 --> 0:47:24.360
<v Speaker 5>So let's see if it works.

0:47:24.840 --> 0:47:27.960
<v Speaker 2>Let's look at some silly reporting from the UK.

0:47:28.120 --> 0:47:29.919
<v Speaker 6>You could mock this. This is easy to mock.

0:47:30.040 --> 0:47:33.320
<v Speaker 2>The Mirror warned its readers last week of a heat

0:47:33.360 --> 0:47:34.560
<v Speaker 2>wave set.

0:47:34.440 --> 0:47:35.760
<v Speaker 6>To hit major cities.

0:47:36.160 --> 0:47:41.120
<v Speaker 2>They wrote, UK to be blasted by forty eight hours.

0:47:40.719 --> 0:47:43.120
<v Speaker 6>Of twenty six degree heat wave.

0:47:43.280 --> 0:47:45.600
<v Speaker 2>I don't notice twenty six degrees a heat wave anywhere

0:47:45.600 --> 0:47:50.680
<v Speaker 2>in the world, but it's incredible the hardship the poems

0:47:50.719 --> 0:47:54.640
<v Speaker 2>have to endure for forty eight hours. But we've got

0:47:54.640 --> 0:47:57.400
<v Speaker 2>The Guardian, on the other hand, saying that it's actually

0:47:57.480 --> 0:48:00.440
<v Speaker 2>quite cold in the UK. But they still need to

0:48:00.480 --> 0:48:05.279
<v Speaker 2>get some climate cult commentary in their saying the cool

0:48:05.360 --> 0:48:09.160
<v Speaker 2>start to the summer may feel more miserable than figures

0:48:09.200 --> 0:48:12.520
<v Speaker 2>suggest because people have come to see heat.

0:48:12.320 --> 0:48:13.600
<v Speaker 6>Waves as the norm.

0:48:14.080 --> 0:48:18.160
<v Speaker 2>Global heating means UK summers are more than a degree

0:48:18.239 --> 0:48:20.680
<v Speaker 2>warmer than in the seventies, but I wonder how much

0:48:20.719 --> 0:48:23.320
<v Speaker 2>warmer they are than the I don't know, twelve hundreds,

0:48:23.400 --> 0:48:28.120
<v Speaker 2>thirteen hundreds, you know, the medieval warming period. So there

0:48:28.200 --> 0:48:31.160
<v Speaker 2>is a lot of material there to be mocked. But

0:48:31.480 --> 0:48:34.520
<v Speaker 2>I do wonder if Marc Comfrey's is going to touch

0:48:34.560 --> 0:48:37.239
<v Speaker 2>any of that. I think you'll just be watching Sky

0:48:37.480 --> 0:48:41.279
<v Speaker 2>hoping for moments for Sky, which is wonderful promotion for us.

0:48:41.320 --> 0:48:43.799
<v Speaker 6>So if you see this mark, please publicize.

0:48:43.920 --> 0:48:44.240
<v Speaker 5>Yeah.

0:48:44.239 --> 0:48:47.040
<v Speaker 19>Absolutely, But Rita, I mean, really, the Brits are complaining

0:48:47.040 --> 0:48:49.439
<v Speaker 19>about twenty three degrees celsius twenty six.

0:48:49.520 --> 0:48:51.399
<v Speaker 5>It's twenty three, so should I say?

0:48:51.480 --> 0:48:53.279
<v Speaker 19>I mean, it's a heat wave and they are all

0:48:53.320 --> 0:48:56.400
<v Speaker 19>panicking and they need to stay indoors because it's so hot.

0:48:56.600 --> 0:48:58.800
<v Speaker 19>I mean, you can mock these It's just too easy

0:48:58.800 --> 0:49:02.160
<v Speaker 19>to mock Rita. It sort of shows the fast that

0:49:02.600 --> 0:49:05.920
<v Speaker 19>you know, when they're making headlines that's twenty six degrees

0:49:06.160 --> 0:49:09.359
<v Speaker 19>and it's a heat wave and this is a climate emergency,

0:49:09.440 --> 0:49:12.080
<v Speaker 19>then you start to really question thisty you.

0:49:12.080 --> 0:49:14.880
<v Speaker 2>See this, So it's so prevalent in the UK when

0:49:14.920 --> 0:49:18.719
<v Speaker 2>they're doing their weather reports on television, the heat and

0:49:18.840 --> 0:49:21.520
<v Speaker 2>the map is all in red in summer, like the

0:49:21.520 --> 0:49:25.000
<v Speaker 2>whole place is on fire, even though the temperatures are

0:49:25.040 --> 0:49:26.839
<v Speaker 2>the same as they were a couple of years ago

0:49:26.920 --> 0:49:30.840
<v Speaker 2>with a normal map, so it is all about those optics.

0:49:30.840 --> 0:49:33.560
<v Speaker 2>Sophie Lsworth, thank you so much for your time this evening.

0:49:33.680 --> 0:49:36.800
<v Speaker 2>Thank you, Rita, and that's it from me. Up next

0:49:37.040 --> 0:49:37.920
<v Speaker 2>is Newsnight.
