Speaker 1: On scoring leaves Oustrodia.
Speaker 2: This is the Wader Panalty Show.
Speaker 3: Good evening, A welcome to the Rita Panekey Show coming
Speaker 3: up tonight. The Victorian government plunged into a fresh crisis,
Speaker 3: with the acting Chief Police Commissioner sensationally quitting the force
Speaker 3: after just forty one days in the top job. The
Speaker 3: latest wacky ads from Labor and the Liberals as the
Speaker 3: major parties flood social media with campaign ads.
Speaker 4: Democrats in Congress find new.
Speaker 3: Lows they're approval rating, hitting a record low of twenty
Speaker 3: one percent.
Speaker 4: Link Lauren will.
Speaker 3: Have the latest, including Cory Booker's marathon filibuster and Alex
Speaker 3: Stein will tell us why he was attacked during trans
Speaker 3: Day of Visibility celebrations and we never forget left.
Speaker 4: He's losing it.
Speaker 5: Is there anything anything, oh earn you thing it are
Speaker 5: that they could do to lose your supper?
Speaker 4: Worried at this.
Speaker 3: Point, But first Labor has been weaponizing all things Trump
Speaker 3: to attack Peter Dutton, and it must be said the
Speaker 3: Opposition leader is not dealing with these attacks particularly well.
Speaker 3: But the Prime Minister himself has been struggling to explain
Speaker 3: some of his own commentary regarding the US President, watch
Speaker 3: this rather bizarre exchange.
Speaker 6: Prime Minister, you previously said that Donald Trump scares the
Speaker 6: ship out of you.
Speaker 3: What scared the ship out of you?
Speaker 6: And are you still frightened by those things about Donald Trump?
Speaker 7: Now?
Speaker 8: It's Prime Minister. I have a constructive relationship with the
Speaker 8: President and I've had two very constructive phone calls with him.
Speaker 9: But no, no, sorry, So what skipped out of the question?
Speaker 4: What actually scared me about him?
Speaker 8: As Prime minister?
Speaker 10: Said this?
Speaker 8: As Prime Minister, I have a constructive relationship with the
Speaker 8: President and I look forward to continue and engage with him.
Speaker 3: Dear, what we have there is a weak, reckless leader
Speaker 3: who made I advise comments about a former president who
Speaker 3: anyone with a fully functioning brain knew was likely to
Speaker 3: be a future president. Joining me now for more on
Speaker 3: this is their panel. We've got Sky News contributors pri
Speaker 3: McSween and Tina McQueen, Tina Labor and the media have
Speaker 3: been using Donald Trump to attack Peter Dutton, trying to
Speaker 3: capitalize on the well almost uniformly terrible coverage of US
Speaker 3: politics that we get in this country. Is it working
Speaker 3: in scaring the electorate and making them think Peter Dutton
Speaker 3: is Donald Trump two point zero.
Speaker 6: No, I don't think it's working at all. And I look,
Speaker 6: I think Peter Dutton bedwise to agree and go hand
Speaker 6: in hand with Donald Trump on a lot of policies.
Speaker 6: So this won't work at all. I mean, this alban
Speaker 6: easy continuing Trump thumping.
Speaker 4: Isn't going to work.
Speaker 6: There's a lot of admiration for what Trump's doing in
Speaker 6: the US by Australians around the country, so this tactic
Speaker 6: will not work and may very well backby against Prime Minister.
Speaker 11: Prue.
Speaker 3: But Dutton isn't really leaning into it either. He seems
Speaker 3: to be scared of even talking about it. You either
Speaker 3: embrace it and point to the great things that are
Speaker 3: happening in the US and point out, you know where
Speaker 3: a different country has got different policies, or you tackle
Speaker 3: it in some other way. He seems to just sort
Speaker 3: of be allowing Labor to set the tone when it
Speaker 3: comes to this issue.
Speaker 12: Well, he's underestimating the fact that labor are street fighters.
Speaker 12: They play dirty, they play the man, as we know.
Speaker 12: And I don't necessarily agree with Tina in this. I
Speaker 12: think that their policy of attacking Dutton and weaponizing Trump
Speaker 12: against him is working in some cases. You know, he's
Speaker 12: I think that it's true that Albanize is hoping for
Speaker 12: a Trump bump. That's what they're all predicting if his
Speaker 12: liberation tariffs come in, And any sane person would understand
Speaker 12: that what Dutton is actually supporting of Trump is things
Speaker 12: like abandoning woke policies in school and generally in the community,
Speaker 12: and cutting back on the federal Department of Education. Why
Speaker 12: the hell do we have a federal Department of education
Speaker 12: when we have states governments running the education system. So
Speaker 12: I think draining the swamp of public servants is a
Speaker 12: good idea, and he's been very clear, Dutton about not
Speaker 12: you know, draining the swamp when it came to frontline workers.
Speaker 12: So I just think that Dutton needs to be more aggressive.
Speaker 4: Generally.
Speaker 12: We have big fisted, chest pumping Albanezi, who was missing
Speaker 12: in action for so long when it came to trying
Speaker 12: to advocate for against these tariffs. I mean, apart from
Speaker 12: not being able to even get a phone call with
Speaker 12: the president, you know, we have useless rut whose demeaned
Speaker 12: Trump so much being our advocate.
Speaker 4: Well, no wonder we're in this situation.
Speaker 11: But I think you're right, reader.
Speaker 6: I think mister Dutton really has to man up on
Speaker 6: this and not be wishy washy about it.
Speaker 4: These ads will work.
Speaker 6: If Dunton does not stand up for his relationship with
Speaker 6: Trump and the policies that he admires and will take.
Speaker 3: On board, well he needs just to be bolder across
Speaker 3: the board. Let's talk about those tariffs, though Tomorrow has
Speaker 3: been dubbed Liberation Day in the US, with Donald Trump
Speaker 3: said to announce a list of tariffs impacting Australias as
Speaker 3: well that it should be taking place with immediate effect.
Speaker 3: Australian meat, agriculture, pharmaceuticals, even the media all face possible tariffs. Tina,
Speaker 3: we have shot ourselves in the foot here with the
Speaker 3: negotiation because some of those unwise comments that we've had
Speaker 3: from labor ministers, from the PM as we just heard,
Speaker 3: and form the prime ministers who cannot keep out of
Speaker 3: the media. None of that helps when you're trying to
Speaker 3: negotiate an exemption. And Australia wasn't a fairly unique position
Speaker 3: because we've got a trade deficit with the US and
Speaker 3: most countries don't, so we perhaps could have got an
Speaker 3: advantageous still if our politicians were a little bit smarter.
Speaker 6: Yeah, they're really blown it, particularly markham turmalus Preu said
Speaker 6: Kevin Rudd. And you know President Trump, he doesn't take
Speaker 6: kindly to these remarks and he's got a long memory.
Speaker 6: So I think we've handled very poorly. We've gone totally
Speaker 6: in the wrong way about it.
Speaker 4: There are plenty of.
Speaker 6: Avenues we could have used to get to President Trump.
Speaker 4: That Albanese did not take advantage of.
Speaker 6: There's a number of private Australians that have a close
Speaker 6: relationship with the President. We could have gone that route.
Speaker 6: So I think, yeah, it's a real shame that that's happened,
Speaker 6: and clearly these tariffs are going to have some effect
Speaker 6: in our country. All I can hope for is a
Speaker 6: change of government where I'm certain that relationships will be
Speaker 6: better with the president. So we just have to hope
Speaker 6: that the government just changed and we can readjust our
Speaker 6: relationship with President Trump and fix some of these arrangements
Speaker 6: that will be no doubt be put in place on
Speaker 6: April fourth.
Speaker 3: Over here, Now, let's check in with the social media
Speaker 3: campaigns of the major parties.
Speaker 13: Let's start with Labor. This is their latest efforts.
Speaker 6: Authorized p rickson alp camera.
Speaker 3: Okay, it looks like the Liberals are taking a page
Speaker 3: out of Labour's playbook and trying to appeal to younger
Speaker 3: voters with these sort of left field ads. They've used
Speaker 3: the awful Snow White movie to mock lay up.
Speaker 7: This movie is such a flyp Yeah, people would walk
Speaker 7: out even if they played the film on a plane.
Speaker 9: But it's still better than this mid on Libra government.
Speaker 14: You think this trash movie is better than their debt
Speaker 14: filled budget.
Speaker 1: Liber are terrible, but this movie is a tougher watch
Speaker 1: than TikTok and The Mean Depression.
Speaker 13: Look, I know we got two out of ten on IMDb,
Speaker 13: but have you seen the power prices under Libra?
Speaker 4: Authorized? A host liberal Canberra prue? You are the pr Maven.
Speaker 4: What do you think of what you've just seen?
Speaker 11: Look?
Speaker 12: I can understand why they're targeting this generation and online
Speaker 12: media because it's the main consumption now of many many
Speaker 12: voters of all demographics. But I think these two attempts
Speaker 12: are really quite pathetic. You know, too hard, too long
Speaker 12: to cryptic.
Speaker 4: I just you know, I just don't understand it.
Speaker 12: I suppose one could argue that they're a bit better
Speaker 12: than Claire O'Neill's attempts, you know, homegrown attempts, but Bowen's attempts.
Speaker 12: But really, you know, they're not hitting the mark. What
Speaker 12: they need to do is probably get some younger people,
Speaker 12: not these you know, sort of advertising types who are
Speaker 12: probably snipping all sorts of different things in between you
Speaker 12: coming up with creative campaigns, you know, to come up
Speaker 12: with some ideas. But I just think these missed the mark.
Speaker 3: Well we've got another one for you, because it's not
Speaker 3: just the major parties, the minor parties, the independence, they're
Speaker 3: all joining in. Let's have a look at Senator for
Speaker 3: Teama Payman's effort is that we're capping. I've just said
Speaker 3: he's capping ic L TSPMO, SDB, wilted Rose emotion Tina.
Speaker 3: I'm not sure exactly what that was about, but I
Speaker 3: did have a look at the Instagram comments and they
Speaker 3: weren't complimentary.
Speaker 6: As all I can say, Reader, I must be ancient.
Speaker 6: I don't get any of these ads, the labor one
Speaker 6: in particular, the liberal one I think was silly to
Speaker 6: lose us. The snow White reference, because that actress in
Speaker 6: Snow White is the workest of Woken, although the movie
Speaker 6: apparently is shocking she'd still have plenty of fans, so.
Speaker 4: I wouldn't touch that.
Speaker 6: And Fatima, look, I very few people know who she is,
Speaker 6: shows very little to say and are going to be
Speaker 6: even more confused by watching that.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, Now the Liberals have started adding Monique don't
Speaker 3: take this sign posters alongside their Amelia Hamer posters in
Speaker 3: the seat of q Yol.
Speaker 4: This is clever.
Speaker 3: This is after the husband of the TLMP, Monig Ryan,
Speaker 3: was caught on camera removing one of Hamer's campaign ads
Speaker 3: last week. Tina, this is this is actually clever. It's
Speaker 3: an employing humor and it's making the point. It's reminding
Speaker 3: that electro of what happened.
Speaker 4: That's right.
Speaker 6: Look, I think it's brilliant and I was having a
Speaker 6: particular tough day the other Dame when I first saw
Speaker 6: this ad and it really made me just burst out laughing.
Speaker 6: I'd be a joyous, clever ad and we need.
Speaker 4: More like this to win an election. Proue.
Speaker 3: What else can the major political parties do to get
Speaker 3: through to the electrop Because not everyone is obsessed with politics.
Speaker 4: As we are.
Speaker 3: Much of the country is apathetic that kind of consume what.
Speaker 4: They have to. How do you get through to the
Speaker 4: average Australian.
Speaker 12: Well, I think that the messaging just has to be
Speaker 12: simple and clear. Everything they do needs to have a resolution.
Speaker 12: Why when I heard Dutton during his pub test on
Speaker 12: Sky and he was talking about the fuel excise, but
Speaker 12: then he didn't drive at home and saying every person,
Speaker 12: whether you pay text or not, will pay less for
Speaker 12: their fuel. You know, they don't sell properly, and so
Speaker 12: I think they also because Labor is so clever and
Speaker 12: obfuscating and taking the eye off the ball. They talk
Speaker 12: about things, but they don't get the clear message out there.
Speaker 12: And I just feel that the lips in particular allow
Speaker 12: Labor to get away with lies and murder generally, you know.
Speaker 12: So I think that you know, going cutting very clear
Speaker 12: communications is the way to go across all channels.
Speaker 4: I think you're right, Prue and Read.
Speaker 6: We need to go back to when Tony Abbott won
Speaker 6: and you know the three word slogans work, cut the tax,
Speaker 6: stop the boats, things like that. Short and concise messages
Speaker 6: is what Peter dut and the Liberal Party need to adopt.
Speaker 7: Yep.
Speaker 3: Absolutely, just the word xcise. I think people tune out.
Speaker 3: People understand tax and they understand dollar amounts. So if
Speaker 3: you say that will save you twenty dollars per week,
Speaker 3: whatever the amount is, that's what gets through. Now let's
Speaker 3: talk about Victoria. Victoria Police Commissioner Rick Nugent, who was
Speaker 3: sworn into the top job after Shane Patton was forced
Speaker 3: out of the role in February, has made the shop
Speaker 3: decision to quit, plunging Victoria Police and the Allen government
Speaker 3: into even greater chaos.
Speaker 4: Prough, the acting Chief.
Speaker 3: Commissioner, quit after just forty one days in the top job.
Speaker 3: There's allegations of inappropriate conduct involving a conflict of interest.
Speaker 3: This is during his previous stint as a commissioner, and
Speaker 3: these complaints have gone to the Anti corruption watchdog.
Speaker 4: But pro it's a mess, well, who would touch it?
Speaker 12: You know, the job is really toxic when you think
Speaker 12: that everything that is done in Victorian particular is politically motivated.
Speaker 12: The police commissioner's job, I don't care who's sitting in
Speaker 12: the chair, is virtually untenable unless you you capitulate and
Speaker 12: commit to what Allen and co. Dictate you as well
Speaker 12: give up. And I don't know whether this guy's past
Speaker 12: had any real influence or if it's a political gotcha
Speaker 12: where they've decided this guy isn't playing balls, so we
Speaker 12: need to get rid of him.
Speaker 4: Let's dig up.
Speaker 12: Some potential dirt.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 12: All you know is that everything that happens in Victorian
Speaker 12: politics stinks.
Speaker 3: Well, yes, and if you want to see Victoria nationally
Speaker 3: another term of the Alban Eazy government may just get
Speaker 3: you there.
Speaker 4: Now before you.
Speaker 3: Go, Tina, I've got to ask you about this piece
Speaker 3: I saw in The Australian's Margin Core column. A bit
Speaker 3: bizarre if you ask me. It was an attack against
Speaker 3: the white Haven cole director Raymond's age because he likes
Speaker 3: posts on social media that are in support of Trump
Speaker 3: and Elon Masker. He noted that Elon Musk would be
Speaker 3: a fantastic president. It's a shame he can't run to
Speaker 3: be president. This anonymous columnists label that embarrassing and nutty.
Speaker 3: I mean, where is this coming from? Where is this
Speaker 3: It's almost like we're back into twenty sixteen, where they
Speaker 3: don't seem to appreciate that this is the duly elected
Speaker 3: president of the United States and he.
Speaker 4: Enjoys enormous support, not just in America.
Speaker 6: Yeah, look, he's been over overwhelmingly elected, so you know,
Speaker 6: everyone's got the right to say I think, and if
Speaker 6: you want to support Trump and praise what him and
Speaker 6: must be doing, you should be able to without being ridiculed.
Speaker 6: I mean, it's just ridiculous. And good on him for
Speaker 6: saying what he really believes and what his thoughts are
Speaker 6: regarding the US. And you know that's a bold, brave
Speaker 6: move and I think more of us should do it.
Speaker 4: Absolutely.
Speaker 3: And I had to look at the again the comments
Speaker 3: from The Australian's readers and that they were not too
Speaker 3: impressed with the angle the columnists taken. The unnamed columnist
Speaker 3: Pru McSween, Tina McQueen, thank you so much for your
Speaker 3: time tonight. Joining me now is research fellow at the
Speaker 3: Institute of Public Affairs Saxon Davidson. Saxon Peter Dutton has
Speaker 3: spriaked a policy that would force the banks to slash
Speaker 3: their serviceability buffers for home loans by a third, as
Speaker 3: well as direct them to ease capital rules for borrowers
Speaker 3: with small deposits. Analysis conducted by Canstar estimates that such
Speaker 3: measures would allow the average person to borrow up to
Speaker 3: forty thousand dollars more than they otherwise would, But Canstar
Speaker 3: says that the person who is most likely to benefit
Speaker 3: from this structural change is the person selling the property,
Speaker 3: not the person taking on more debt. It's a drop
Speaker 3: in the ocean. That's a direct quote there, Saxon. Housing
Speaker 3: is going to be a huge issue. What do you
Speaker 3: make of the policies of the two major parties?
Speaker 15: Well, the policy of the two policies of the two
Speaker 15: major parties are pretty poor. Actually, the main issue with
Speaker 15: housing is affordability, and the biggest lever that the.
Speaker 2: Federal parties have to pull this lever is immigration.
Speaker 15: Demand for housing is far too high and it is
Speaker 15: lifting housing and rent prices for everybody. Now, this policy
Speaker 15: from Peter Dutton is a positive one and will allow
Speaker 15: people to enter the market that otherwise couldn't. But without
Speaker 15: significant cuts to migration, demand for housing is simply only
Speaker 15: going to rise further and further up.
Speaker 3: What about the policy of allowing people to access their
Speaker 3: super to buy a home. This seems to be a
Speaker 3: philosophical point for the liberals where they say it's your money,
Speaker 3: you should be able to access it to do with
Speaker 3: as you wish. What do you think about that, because
Speaker 3: it's certainly something Labor do not back well.
Speaker 15: Obviously, Labor wouldn't back any taking out of the super
Speaker 15: taking any money out of the superannuation funds.
Speaker 2: I'm a big.
Speaker 15: Supporter of this policy because ultimately superannuation does act as
Speaker 15: a double taxation on top of your income tax. And
Speaker 15: being able to use your own money to purchase a
Speaker 15: home for you to be able to build your life
Speaker 15: savings around like most Australians do, shouldn't be as outlandish
Speaker 15: a policy as some people in the political cost make
Speaker 15: it out to be.
Speaker 3: Absolutely, it seems mad that it's a particularly when you're
Speaker 3: investigating property and we've seen historically how much that has
Speaker 3: gone up in value, So why deprive people of the
Speaker 3: opportunity Now, Labor said that it will urge the Fair
Speaker 3: Work Commission to back above inflation pay rises for two
Speaker 3: point nine million low paid workers, in a move that
Speaker 3: will no doubt spark a political war between the party
Speaker 3: and businesses across the country. Saxon is Labor backing a
Speaker 3: winning plan here. This is certainly going to be popular,
Speaker 3: but will it be inflationary?
Speaker 2: It's absolutely going to be inflationary.
Speaker 15: Any arbitrary increase to wages which is not met with
Speaker 15: equivalent increase to productivity is going to be naturally inflationary,
Speaker 15: which I mean is to the detriment of the entire population,
Speaker 15: particularly low paid workers. And I mean the other thing
Speaker 15: that's been missing out of this converse is the effect
Speaker 15: this is going to have on businesses, particularly particularly small
Speaker 15: and medium enterprises. Smaller medium enterprises are being burdened at
Speaker 15: a double rate at the moment due to record energy
Speaker 15: prices and also by a record amount of red tape
Speaker 15: at both the federal and the state level. If this
Speaker 15: is going to be again, if they're going to be
Speaker 15: burdened even more by an increased labor cost, that just
Speaker 15: means more businesses are going to go under which means
Speaker 15: that a lot of those workers who labor supposedly support
Speaker 15: with this policy shift are just going to lose their jobs,
Speaker 15: and no one wants that.
Speaker 3: Well, the fear here is that this is, as you explain,
Speaker 3: going to be particularly bad for low income earners because
Speaker 3: it's going to be inflationary, but it's probably going to
Speaker 3: be most attractive because they're going to end up with
Speaker 3: some more money in their pocket initially before that inflation
Speaker 3: takes it all away. So I think politically it's very
Speaker 3: clever from Labour. Now, finally, before you go, Saxon, let's
Speaker 3: talk about Victoria. The Allen government is set to ink
Speaker 3: the most expensive contract of the suburban rail loop is
Speaker 3: going to be billions dollars more. They're going to do
Speaker 3: this despite Peter Dutton threatening to cut federal funding for
Speaker 3: the project if he wins. So we could be looking,
Speaker 3: Saxon at an eleven point five billion dollar black hole
Speaker 3: in this project. What is the business case for the
Speaker 3: suburban rail Loop?
Speaker 2: There simply isn't one. This is a boondoggle.
Speaker 3: We have spent billions and we're about to spend many,
Speaker 3: many billions more and there's no business.
Speaker 2: There's no business case for this project.
Speaker 15: And it's just a continuation of the storied history of
Speaker 15: this Labor government, which is now eleven years old, of
Speaker 15: budget blowouts, project delays and unfulfilled promises, all three of
Speaker 15: which were seen with the most recently canceled and repurposed
Speaker 15: now Glasgow Commonwealth Games. And we've seen project after projects
Speaker 15: there are simply more delays, more budget blowouts, and this
Speaker 15: eleven point two budget hole that's now in this pre
Speaker 15: is probably only going to get larger considering that we
Speaker 15: know based on history, what the results will be.
Speaker 2: The longer this project.
Speaker 4: Goes on, Saxon Davidson, Thank you so much, Vin, Thank
Speaker 4: you for having me.
Speaker 3: Still to come a Lefties Losing it plus Democrats sink
Speaker 3: two new loads with their approval.
Speaker 4: Rating committing to twenty one percent. Link. Lauren joins us
Speaker 4: next with the.
Speaker 3: Details Welcome back. It's time for Lefties losing it. And
Speaker 3: there has been much controversy among the humorless joyless left
Speaker 3: because this alleged comic Amber Ruffin has been removed as
Speaker 3: the headline act for the White House Correspondence Dinner.
Speaker 4: A tragedy for comedy. Let's get back to the monologue.
Speaker 7: During the Houston Astros World Series victory parade on Monday,
Speaker 7: Senator Ted Cruz was reportedly hit with a beer.
Speaker 4: Can in the chest and neck. It missed his fine
Speaker 4: because he doesn't have one.
Speaker 3: Oh dear, and she's not only painfully and funny, she's
Speaker 3: also a lefty losing it who intended to use the
Speaker 3: occasion to grandstand.
Speaker 7: You're kind of a bunch of murderers. I mean so
Speaker 7: like they were like you need to be you know,
Speaker 7: equal and make sure that the that you give it
Speaker 7: to both sides and blah blah blah. I was like,
Speaker 7: there's no way I'm going to be for doing that, dude.
Speaker 3: Murderers and speaking on the podcast, you saw there off
Speaker 3: far left clown side the Daily Beast and were often
Speaker 3: revealed just what a nasty lefty she is saying Republicans
Speaker 3: are not even human.
Speaker 2: It's just about burns on.
Speaker 7: Trump hurt badly and then it trickles down to everyone
Speaker 7: who is around him because y'all also guilty. So I
Speaker 7: think it just they got their feelings hurt. But it
Speaker 7: may want that false equivalency that the media does want
Speaker 7: that it feels great, it makes them feel like human beings,
Speaker 7: but they shouldn't get to feel that way because they're not.
Speaker 3: Some people are more culpable than others, that's right, man,
Speaker 3: They get more jokes made about them, and the jokes
Speaker 3: are meaner. And of course the miserable, joyless ladies of
Speaker 3: the view thought that last line was hilarious. Look at
Speaker 3: the immediate reactions here when they played the clip.
Speaker 7: It makes them feel like human beings, but they shouldn't
Speaker 7: get to feel that way because they're not.
Speaker 4: Charming. Think they all need psychological help.
Speaker 3: But just not from this next lady who claims to
Speaker 3: be a psychologist, and she has this important question for Americans.
Speaker 5: Are you in question for Trump supporters and supporters of
Speaker 5: Musk and iar of care. I'm just asking a genuine,
Speaker 5: honest question for you. Is there anything, anything or how
Speaker 5: do you think it are that they could do to
Speaker 5: lose your support at this.
Speaker 3: Point, Yes, if I'm a Trump mask RFK, any of
Speaker 3: them appear with a septum ring, I'm going to assume
Speaker 3: that they have lost their minds and disregard anything they
Speaker 3: have to say.
Speaker 4: That's all it's going to take.
Speaker 3: Let's go back to the view and watch here as
Speaker 3: the ladies not along like I'm thinking idiots, as this
Speaker 3: lefty Ellie Misstal claims that no law passed before nineteen
Speaker 3: sixty five should be respected.
Speaker 16: My premises for the book is that every law passed
Speaker 16: before in the nineteen sixty five Voting Rights Act should
Speaker 16: be presumptively unconstitutional. Right, But because before in the nineteen
Speaker 16: sixty five Voting Rights Act, we were functionally in apartheid country.
Speaker 16: Not everybody who lived here could vote here, So why
Speaker 16: should I give about some law that some old white
Speaker 16: man passed in the nineteen twenties, like the immigration of Nationale.
Speaker 4: We got now.
Speaker 3: We will get to Corey Booker's is sent into madness shortly.
Speaker 3: But first, the polling for the Democrats continues to hit
Speaker 3: new lows. We are now looking at twenty one percent
Speaker 3: approval ratings for Democrats in Congress.
Speaker 4: Here is CNN.
Speaker 17: Holy Toledo voters' views of the Democrats in Congress. Among
Speaker 17: all voters, disapproved sixty eight percent. And look at the
Speaker 17: approved number, just twenty one percent, even lower than the
Speaker 17: Democratic Party at large.
Speaker 11: This is the lowest on.
Speaker 17: Record for Democrats, according to Quinnipiac University polling. You think
Speaker 17: these numbers are bad, Let's go to this side of
Speaker 17: the screen. We'll look how Democratic voters feel.
Speaker 4: Get this.
Speaker 17: The plurality of Democratic voters disapprove of Democrats in Congress
Speaker 17: at forty nine percent, and just forty percent approve. Horrible, horrible, horrible.
Speaker 3: Joining me now is host of a new program spot
Speaker 3: On with Link Lauren on Meghan Kelly's Network Link. Even
Speaker 3: the majority of Democrats do not approve of the Democrats
Speaker 3: in Congress.
Speaker 1: Great to be back with you, Rita. This is because
Speaker 1: the Democrats have lost their darn minds. The Democrats are
Speaker 1: also choosing these ridiculous hills to die on. If you
Speaker 1: look at the data, seventy nine percent of Americans in
Speaker 1: a recent New York Times IPSIS poll, they tell you
Speaker 1: they do not want men and women's sports. So what
Speaker 1: do the Democrats do the next day? They go out
Speaker 1: and vote to keep men in women's sports. If you
Speaker 1: look at these polls and overwhelming majority of Americans they
Speaker 1: support mass deportations, they support deporting criminals.
Speaker 2: What do the Democrats do.
Speaker 1: They go on TV and say, no, no, no, we
Speaker 1: can't do these mass deportations.
Speaker 2: This is racist, this is xenophobic.
Speaker 1: So the Democrats are coming down on the wrong side
Speaker 1: of every single issue, and it's why people are leaving
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party in droves.
Speaker 3: Well, he talked about the Democrats losing their minds.
Speaker 4: Here's another candidate. This is just incredible.
Speaker 3: Corey Booker talked NonStop for twenty four to twenty five hours.
Speaker 4: This is Philip on the.
Speaker 2: Top stupidest questions in America.
Speaker 11: You've gotten this question.
Speaker 16: I think you would agree with me. You're not a
Speaker 16: kind of guy that uses words like.
Speaker 2: Hey, this is stupid, but this is stupid. The thing.
Speaker 11: I heard the stupid question.
Speaker 4: Oh yes, heroic.
Speaker 3: They can say the applause from the other Democrats when
Speaker 3: he broaked the record for the longest SPAECHA.
Speaker 1: Tell me why, Well, I really couldn't tell you why
Speaker 1: Corey Booker is standing there for twenty five hours running
Speaker 1: his mouth. But what I can tell you is, if
Speaker 1: this is the best the Democrats have to offer, is
Speaker 1: if this is the face of the resistance, I think
Speaker 1: the Republicans are going to be a Okay, Corey Booker
Speaker 1: wants to show he's an alpha. He's a masculine guy.
Speaker 1: You're standing there in an air conditioned room talking about
Speaker 1: nonsense for twenty five hours. This is not an alpha
Speaker 1: masculine guy. President Trump got shot in Butler, Pennsylvania on
Speaker 1: July thirteenth and stood up with blood streaming down his face,
Speaker 1: saying fight, fight Fight. That is an alpha in an
Speaker 1: image of strength people can relate to. Corey Booker looked
Speaker 1: like a clown.
Speaker 10: Well.
Speaker 3: Part of the crisis facing the Democrats is that they
Speaker 3: are doubling it down on that leftist lunacy you mentioned,
Speaker 3: and part of that is attacking Elon Musk. I mean,
Speaker 3: these on hinge demented height field attacks against Elon Musk,
Speaker 3: labeling him a Nazi, a threat to democracy, and sadly
Speaker 3: it's backed by the mediasm of this hysteria. And this
Speaker 3: is something Joe Rogan touched on recently because.
Speaker 14: Right now they lost to Trump, they're in this scattered
Speaker 14: thing where they're trying to put on everything he does,
Speaker 14: hide all the good stuff. You didn't hear a peep
Speaker 14: about Elon rescuing those people. That should have been on
Speaker 14: all of the news stories all day long. It should
Speaker 14: have been a huge national event. We're finally going to
Speaker 14: rescue the astronauts who are trapped in the space station
Speaker 14: for eight months. And this super genius, this Elon Musk character,
Speaker 14: is the guy who figured out how.
Speaker 16: To go get them.
Speaker 2: His company went.
Speaker 14: And rescued them because we can't do it anymore.
Speaker 3: He's one hundred percent right there. That was stranded there
Speaker 3: for months. It was supposed to be a seven day
Speaker 3: mission because NASA couldn't get them.
Speaker 4: So Elon steps in to do that. It's successful.
Speaker 3: It should have just been a moment that united the country,
Speaker 3: this moment of triumph, and yet it was barely covered
Speaker 3: because it helps Elon Musk it helps Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: Well, what I find so funny about these Democrats calling
Speaker 1: Elon Musk a threat to democracy. They didn't think it
Speaker 1: was a threat to democracy. Having a brain dead president
Speaker 1: Joe Biden for the last four years, that wasn't a
Speaker 1: threat to democracy. Open borders, hundreds of thousands of people
Speaker 1: pouring through the border every single month bringing fentanyl, drugs
Speaker 1: and crime. MS thirteen trendy at Agua. That wasn't a
Speaker 1: threat to democracy to the Democrats. All of a sudden,
Speaker 1: Elon Musk, who has an American made electric vehicle company,
Speaker 1: this is the guy they are waging war on. I
Speaker 1: think all of these people who are burning down Tesla's,
Speaker 1: burning down dealerships, storming dealerships, you all are domestic terrorists.
Speaker 1: Tom Homan and Christy Nome need to snatch you up.
Speaker 1: They need to put you on the planes and send
Speaker 1: you to Guantanamo. We can send the women of the
Speaker 1: View Takuantanamo, Megan Markle, and then also these people who
Speaker 1: are vandalizing Tesla's. You guys can all go together. Because
Speaker 1: Elon Musk is trying to find waste, broad and abuse,
Speaker 1: and the federal government right throughout history, the person trying
Speaker 1: to get rid of waste, broad and abuse. Is usually
Speaker 1: the hero, but because he's working with Trump, suddenly he's
Speaker 1: the boogeyman to the left RITA.
Speaker 3: How complicit is the media in these attacks with saying
Speaker 3: against Tesla dealerships, against Tesla driver's sixty one year old
Speaker 3: woman was baitionated. I've shown some incredible footage in Race
Speaker 3: and Wakes of just violent domestic terrorism. There is now
Speaker 3: the to describe it because these attacks are politically motivated.
Speaker 3: Do you hold the media at all accountable for some
Speaker 3: of this behavior?
Speaker 1: So I do hold the media somewhat accountable for this behavior,
Speaker 1: the burning down Teslas and storming dealerships, because these networks
Speaker 1: like MSNBC, they're the ones who are talking to these rich, white, liberal,
Speaker 1: affluent women, and most of them are the ones going
Speaker 1: and protesting outside of Tesla dealerships. Most Americans they got
Speaker 1: to go to work. They don't have time to stand
Speaker 1: outside a dealership with a little sign and doing a chant.
Speaker 1: They have to go and provide for their families. So
Speaker 1: I do hold MSNBC accountable. But they did this for years. Right,
Speaker 1: they called Donald Trump a threat to democracy, They called
Speaker 1: him a dictator, they called him a Nazi hitler, a fascist.
Speaker 1: They smeared Donald Trump for years and we saw the
Speaker 1: horrific repercussions of those smears. The last few years.
Speaker 3: Now, the Democrats have been called the party of miserable
Speaker 3: women and weak men. And you've spoken about the beta
Speaker 3: male phenomen Explain to my audience what you mean by
Speaker 3: that and what that means in the political climate, because
Speaker 3: we are saying more and more young men gravitate to
Speaker 3: the rise, whilst women are going increasingly to the left.
Speaker 1: So I've been talking about this a lot recently. We've
Speaker 1: seen polls, we've seen focus groups. Tons of men are
Speaker 1: shifting to the right politically. They're leaving the Democratic Party
Speaker 1: in droves. They're identifying as Republicans, as MAGA, as Independents
Speaker 1: as MAHA because the Democratic Party is unrecognizable. They can't
Speaker 1: even define what a man or a woman is. So
Speaker 1: how is that inviting two men? And also, the Democratic Party,
Speaker 1: like you said, is run by a bunch of beta males.
Speaker 1: If you look at Tim Walls, he's a beta male.
Speaker 1: You look at Corey Booker, beta male, Hawking, Jeffreys, Chuck Schumer,
Speaker 1: and then you look at the women and the forefront
Speaker 1: of the Democratic Party, Elizabeth Warren, Jasmine Crockett, Congresswoman Delaro.
Speaker 1: They are shrill, obnoxious women that no man wants to
Speaker 1: spend five minutes listening to. Men are also tired of
Speaker 1: apologizing for their masculinity. Men are tired of on the
Speaker 1: left having a say I'm so sorry. Was I man'splaining?
Speaker 1: Was I being toxically masculine? Was I sitting with my
Speaker 1: legs too far apart? Was I man spreading? Men are
Speaker 1: tired of this malarkey, this tomfoolery, and it's why they're
Speaker 1: shifting to the right.
Speaker 3: Well, a man who's kind of presented himself as an
Speaker 3: alpha masculine Alan Baldwin, well, after that interaction we.
Speaker 4: Saw on the red carpet, perhaps that's not what he is.
Speaker 4: And there's been more fallout from.
Speaker 3: That Alec and Hilaria Baldwin interaction, that humiliating video.
Speaker 4: I'm not going to show it again.
Speaker 3: We know what we're talking about, where she breaks him
Speaker 3: on the red carpet in front of everybody.
Speaker 4: Now, some industry's.
Speaker 3: Side as are speaking out saying that Alec has terrorized
Speaker 3: movie sets for years and this is.
Speaker 4: A karma link. What have you got to say about that.
Speaker 1: So I guess this could be some kind of karma
Speaker 1: for Alec Baldwin. But for all the men out there,
Speaker 1: listen to me. If you choose to appropriate with the
Speaker 1: woman who is insane and crazy and has multiple personalities
Speaker 1: and think she's from Spain when she's from Boston, don't
Speaker 1: cry over spilled milk. Don't cry from me Argentina when
Speaker 1: things aren't hunky dory at home. So Alec Baldwin, he
Speaker 1: knew what he was doing. He had seven kids with
Speaker 1: Ilaria Ilaria even though she's really Hillary from Boston. Okay,
Speaker 1: she's from the Spanish coast of Boston.
Speaker 2: I guess.
Speaker 1: So if you go to bed, have seven kids with
Speaker 1: a crazy woman, don't cry over spilled milk. I have
Speaker 1: no sympathy for you, Alec Baldwin. You made your bed
Speaker 1: lie in it.
Speaker 4: Oh that is harsh.
Speaker 3: But you know what I cannot get over this fake
Speaker 3: Hispanic accent and forgetting English words when.
Speaker 4: She's not Hispanic, she's not Latin. Where is she getting
Speaker 4: this wrong?
Speaker 3: Before you go, how is Hollywood in general coping with
Speaker 3: a second Trump term? Is the hatred for all things
Speaker 3: Trump as deep as it's been in the past, they
Speaker 3: finally realizing it's probably not a good idea to alienate
Speaker 3: at least half the country, or are they too setting
Speaker 3: their ways. Are they disregarding the box office and focused
Speaker 3: on their activism.
Speaker 1: So I do think there is a little bit of
Speaker 1: a reckoning and a wake up call happening in Hollywood.
Speaker 1: You kind of have to hit them over the head
Speaker 1: with it. They really have to have some big flops
Speaker 1: to come to terms with the fact seventy seven million
Speaker 1: Americans voted for President Trump. Right Republicans maga. They have
Speaker 1: buying power. They are purchasing power. They go to the
Speaker 1: movie theaters. They're not going to put their money where
Speaker 1: their mouth is for a project that denigrates everything conservative
Speaker 1: values stand for. And that's what we've seen in Hollywood.
Speaker 1: Hollywood has gone so woke, they've gone so left, they've
Speaker 1: gone so progressive. They tried to denigrate the nuclear family
Speaker 1: in this country. So I think unless they start embracing
Speaker 1: these Republicans and seventy seven million Americans who voted for Trump,
Speaker 1: they will continue to fade into obsolescence, like we saw
Speaker 1: with Sound of Freedom. In some of these films the
Speaker 1: last few years, there is money there Republicans will go
Speaker 1: to the box office, but the movie has to be
Speaker 1: good and it has to speak to them.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, and it can't patronize and just be ticking boxes.
Speaker 3: This is what we are seeing with so many productions,
Speaker 3: whether it's TV or.
Speaker 4: Movies, where they have to have the.
Speaker 3: DEI checklist completed before they actually worry about whether it's
Speaker 3: a decent product or not. Link Lauren, It's always a pleasure.
Speaker 1: Thanks for your time tonight, Thanks for having me.
Speaker 4: Coming up.
Speaker 3: My next guest was attacked during Trance Day of Visibility demonstrations.
Speaker 9: Alex Stein is up. Welcome back.
Speaker 3: Now it's time for the Golden Age. Elections have consequences,
Speaker 3: and yes, it is the beginning of the Golden.
Speaker 4: Age, all right.
Speaker 3: The latest figures have just been released and they show
Speaker 3: that the Trump administration has resolved the illegal immigration crisis.
Speaker 3: It's no longer a crisis, with the numbers crossing illegally
Speaker 3: at the US Mexico border.
Speaker 4: Falling yet again in March, hitting a.
Speaker 3: New record low just seven thousand cross illegally. Remember we
Speaker 3: were seeing two hundred thousand plus a month under the
Speaker 3: Biden administration. The March data is a ninety four percent
Speaker 3: reduction from at the same time last year March last year.
Speaker 3: Department of Homeland Security agents call it the Trump effect.
Speaker 3: One DHS source told The New York Post, migrants are scared.
Speaker 3: There are consequences now. Everyone who is caught is charged
Speaker 3: and does time. Remember when the Democrats and their propaganda
Speaker 3: arm the bulk of the mainstream media claimed that it
Speaker 3: was impossible for Biden to fix the problem he created.
Speaker 18: I remember Republicans keep saying Biden doesn't need Congress, he
Speaker 18: can stop what's happening at the border all by himself.
Speaker 18: Can you fact check that for us, because we here
Speaker 18: all though that's not true.
Speaker 16: Republicans have been saying largely wrongly right because saying that
Speaker 16: the president can close the border unilaterally on his own,
Speaker 16: president actually doesn't have the authority.
Speaker 1: Under law to do that.
Speaker 7: There's only so much President Biden can do with executive action, and.
Speaker 4: He did try to do whatever he could. They actually
Speaker 4: are doing everything they can.
Speaker 16: The president hands are tied.
Speaker 1: There's only so much that he can do.
Speaker 19: President Biden has issues executive orders, but there's only so
Speaker 19: much he can do within his purview.
Speaker 18: What an intractable a problem this is for the president
Speaker 18: with no easy solutions.
Speaker 4: No easy solutions here. There are no easy solutions here, folks.
Speaker 18: The president insisting there's only so much he can do
Speaker 18: without Congress. How much can actually be done quickly without
Speaker 18: Congress acting?
Speaker 17: How would this happen without the power of the purse,
Speaker 17: without Congress getting involved.
Speaker 5: They need Congress to act to fix the broken immigrations stuff.
Speaker 19: This cannot happen without Congress resourcing this.
Speaker 5: There's only so much a president can do with his
Speaker 5: pen and his phone.
Speaker 3: Turns out it wasn't an intractable problem and there was
Speaker 3: an easy solution.
Speaker 4: All you needed was a new president.
Speaker 3: Joining me now is comedian and host of Prime Time
Speaker 3: with Alex Stein on Blaze TV. Alex We were told
Speaker 3: it can't be done. European countries have achieved little in
Speaker 3: the way of stopping their illegal immigration issues, but Trump
Speaker 3: within a matter of weeks had this issue under control.
Speaker 19: I mean, Rita, it's such a just a laughable proposition
Speaker 19: to even say that the President of the United States
Speaker 19: of America, the commander in chief, is not responsible for
Speaker 19: protecting our borders. That's basically his main responsibility. But these
Speaker 19: people had to just do whatever they could to try
Speaker 19: to sell the Biden presidency as being a success, when
Speaker 19: in reality it was the worst presidency.
Speaker 11: That we possibly could have had.
Speaker 19: And I think looking back, it was actually great eight
Speaker 19: that Joe Biden won the twenty twenty election because now
Speaker 19: we can see how bad things were and we can
Speaker 19: see how effective Trump truly is with fixing things.
Speaker 11: So, you know, it's just ridiculous what these people.
Speaker 19: Want to say when it comes to Joe Biden in
Speaker 19: the comparisons to Donald Trump. It's just a night and
Speaker 19: day difference when it comes to the direction that this
Speaker 19: country's heading.
Speaker 9: Now.
Speaker 3: This week we had the trans Day of Visibility, and
Speaker 3: you decided to mark the occasion by attending a protest
Speaker 3: in Texas.
Speaker 4: You were blasting the song dude looks like a lady,
Speaker 4: Dude looks like a lady and death.
Speaker 3: Not surprisingly, it took around five seconds before you were attacked.
Speaker 12: What of your love?
Speaker 11: Tell yourself than you want to fight? You want to fight?
Speaker 11: I don't know. I'm so scared.
Speaker 4: What are you gonna do? Alexa.
Speaker 3: I may be jumping to conclusions here, but I don't
Speaker 3: think that we're happy to see you.
Speaker 11: No, Rita. It's a cliche.
Speaker 19: You say a lot the party of tolerance and acceptance
Speaker 19: is not very tolerant or accepting when it comes to
Speaker 19: people that even try.
Speaker 11: To have the same viewpoint.
Speaker 19: I went there to try to, uh, you know, I guess,
Speaker 19: be friendly, and obviously I was joking.
Speaker 11: I was being sarcastic.
Speaker 19: But as soon as I stood up and I had
Speaker 19: the boombox playing Aerosmith, they.
Speaker 11: Knew what was going on, and they immediately got violent.
Speaker 19: And I really feel bad because I was there with
Speaker 19: the cameraman and my girlfriend and they threw coffee on her,
Speaker 19: you know, they threw water on me, and I'm trying
Speaker 19: to go there and this is a very tense situation.
Speaker 19: I go there and I try to have I guess
Speaker 19: a different angle. I try to be funny or I
Speaker 19: try to be you know, goofy. But in reality, these
Speaker 19: protests are getting dangerous and there's more and worthy protests rita.
Speaker 19: So I'm happy that this didn't actually get much worse
Speaker 19: than it really was.
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, he got a bit willing there.
Speaker 3: There was a bit of RGI bargie and I'm not
Speaker 3: sure whether you should be taking a girlfriend to these
Speaker 3: little projects, Alex. We need to have a talk about
Speaker 3: that off camera because I'm never going to have you
Speaker 3: married off if you pull stunts like this taking your
Speaker 3: girlfriend to a trans day of Visibility protest.
Speaker 4: No.
Speaker 3: Now, let's talk about Super Bowl champions the Eagles. They're
Speaker 3: looking forward to their White House visit, a very different
Speaker 3: response to what we saw back in twenty eighteen. Let's
Speaker 3: hear now from Eagles coach Nick Siriani talking about how
Speaker 3: honored he is to be invited.
Speaker 10: I'm really excited to go. What an honor, What an
Speaker 10: honor to be able to go to the White House.
Speaker 10: You know, teams that have been winning the championship have
Speaker 10: been doing that for a long time, and I'm really
Speaker 10: honored to go.
Speaker 4: I'm really excited to go, Alex.
Speaker 3: Things were very different back in twenty eighteen when President Trump,
Speaker 3: during his first term, rescinded his invitation to the Eagles
Speaker 3: after they showed great disrespect by saying that they were
Speaker 3: only going to send a small delegation. The whole team
Speaker 3: didn't want to go. It's quite a backflip, I.
Speaker 11: Mean to say the least, it's a huge backflip.
Speaker 19: When you look at Pennsylvania in this last election, I
Speaker 19: would not have thought that they would be in favor
Speaker 19: of Donald Trump. Everybody thought that that was going to
Speaker 19: be such a nail bier, but it wasn't. And so
Speaker 19: I think that people of Pennsylvania are willing to say, Look,
Speaker 19: I love Donald Trump. I like Donald Trump, Nick Sirianni.
Speaker 19: This is his second championship, I believe. So he's a
Speaker 19: great coach, and he's out there speaking for the fans,
Speaker 19: not just the players that might be mad, that might
Speaker 19: not like Trump. This is for the fans of Philadelphia.
Speaker 19: They're not only voted for Donald Trump, but love the Eagles.
Speaker 19: So I'm happy that they're going to go and make
Speaker 19: this right. And they are too. It's ridiculous, even if
Speaker 19: Joe Biden was in office. Every team that wins a championship,
Speaker 19: especially football, the most important sport here in America, you
Speaker 19: go to the White House.
Speaker 11: It's tradition.
Speaker 19: And I really don't like these teams breaking from tradition.
Speaker 3: No, And I think that's where we're seeing the cultural
Speaker 3: shift most strongly. I think when it comes to Hollywood,
Speaker 3: when it comes to so many parts of the entertainment industry,
Speaker 3: they're still completely divorced from reality. And then just on
Speaker 3: this anti Trump campaign where they alienate half the country,
Speaker 3: but the sporting teams Alex seem to be realizing that
Speaker 3: it doesn't pay to upset your fan base. You've got
Speaker 3: to actually either be neutral or just accepting off people's
Speaker 3: different viewpoints. I'm not saying we're there yet.
Speaker 4: But there seems to be a bit of a shift.
Speaker 19: Well, Ruda, now you saw you were playing this all
Speaker 19: year long. All of the NFL players are doing the
Speaker 19: Trump dance every time they score a touchdown or they
Speaker 19: sack the quarterback.
Speaker 11: So you know what, we've I had.
Speaker 19: A big shift, and now it's cool to be a
Speaker 19: Trump supporter, and I'm happy to see it.
Speaker 11: Now we're the cool kids reader.
Speaker 19: Finally, you know, they used to alienate us, but now
Speaker 19: it's cool to like Donald Trump, and we were doing
Speaker 19: it before it was cool to do it.
Speaker 3: Well, if you want to be a rebel, you have
Speaker 3: to be conservative. I mean that is just the way
Speaker 3: it is now if you're a young person, because the
Speaker 3: group think is so much the other way.
Speaker 4: We have to check in now on will Smith Alex.
Speaker 3: He went from being arguably the world's biggest film star,
Speaker 3: winning Academy Awards, among the highest paid stars in the industry,
Speaker 3: and then this happened oh wow, wow, Will Smith to
Speaker 3: smack the shit out of me.
Speaker 6: Like him?
Speaker 4: Wow, dude.
Speaker 3: Well, the weirdo Hollywood crowd gave him a standing ovation
Speaker 3: shortly after that when he want his little ward. But
Speaker 3: the rest of the world were pretty appalled by his
Speaker 3: antics and he had this massive, full form grace. That
Speaker 3: was three years ago now and he's now launched a comeback,
Speaker 3: a musical comeback.
Speaker 16: I feel like I'm just getting started. They tried to
Speaker 16: finish me. I'm like the universe infinite, there's no end
Speaker 16: in me.
Speaker 2: This is the bounce back.
Speaker 4: What will y'all?
Speaker 2: This is the bounce back.
Speaker 11: Here, come to bounce back.
Speaker 2: Get your eyes on him.
Speaker 1: This is the bounce back.
Speaker 4: Okay, Alex, Is that a song? Is that a comeback?
Speaker 4: Or is it? I don't know.
Speaker 3: Do we intrude on a therapy session?
Speaker 19: Yeah, it was definitely a little therapeutic what he was
Speaker 19: talking about.
Speaker 11: I think he called it lyrical lemonade.
Speaker 19: But you know that we're in a simulation because now
Speaker 19: Will Smith is cussing in his freestyle raps. I would
Speaker 19: have never thought that that would ever be possible, because
Speaker 19: he always said that he doesn't have to cuss in
Speaker 19: his wraps to sell records. But when it comes to
Speaker 19: Will Smith rapping rita, this is a good sign. This
Speaker 19: is going back to the fresh Prince of bel Air days,
Speaker 19: the Men in Black days.
Speaker 11: There was a time when Will Smith truly was the.
Speaker 19: A list, funny powerhouse rapper, actor, dancer, and I hope
Speaker 19: you can go back to that. You know, he had
Speaker 19: a horrible fall from grace. His wife, Jada Pinkett Smith
Speaker 19: very unlikable.
Speaker 11: If you ask me personally.
Speaker 19: So I actually like to see the revitalization or the
Speaker 19: revolution or the pivot of Will Smith's career.
Speaker 11: I'm excited to see it. You know, will it be
Speaker 11: a success? Who knows?
Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll say, We'll say his music was actually underrated,
Speaker 3: always thought in the past.
Speaker 4: I'm not sure about this one though.
Speaker 3: And now before you go, we've seen activist students behind
Speaker 3: violent protests deported, But the problem runs deeper than the students.
Speaker 4: Look at this academic, the.
Speaker 3: Chair of the English department at the University of Wisconsin, o'
Speaker 3: clay wellok at what he allegedly did, flipped over a
Speaker 3: table set up by college Republicans at the university.
Speaker 4: But Alex despite what we're seeing in that particular footage.
Speaker 3: We are seeing sanity prevailing at a number of universities
Speaker 3: that are abandoning their DEI programs.
Speaker 4: Tell me about this shift. I mean, they're being forced
Speaker 4: to do it.
Speaker 3: But seeing the Universe University of California walk back from DEI,
Speaker 3: well that's got to be good news.
Speaker 19: Well, Rita, I go to a lot of these college campuses,
Speaker 19: and really, these kids could care less about DEI.
Speaker 11: It's a lot of the faculty.
Speaker 19: And as a matter of fact, when I do these debates,
Speaker 19: oftentimes the faculties are the ones that come over there
Speaker 19: and they don't necessarily I've never had my table flipped,
Speaker 19: but I've had them say flippant remarks to me, and
Speaker 19: I've had them say get alive. So it seems like
Speaker 19: the teachers are the ones that are doing all the indoctrinating.
Speaker 19: So to see these programs go by the wayside, God
Speaker 19: bless them.
Speaker 11: That's great. We don't need them. But I think that
Speaker 11: is a real problem.
Speaker 19: It's not necessarily the students, it's actually the administrators and
Speaker 19: the faculty.
Speaker 3: Of course, that's where it starts. Alex Stein, thanks so
Speaker 3: much for your time tonight. That's it from me. I'll
Speaker 3: see You Tomorrow night at eleven with Douglas Murray Don't
Speaker 3: Go Anywhere.
Speaker 4: Newsnight is up next
