1 00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:04,160 Speaker 1: Dan Mitchison US correspondence with US Hey Dan, Hello, Okay, 2 00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:07,040 Speaker 1: So Kamala Harris is going quite hard on Israel, isn't she? 3 00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:09,840 Speaker 2: Yeah? I think so. I mean, I think she's trying 4 00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:12,240 Speaker 2: to put some feelers out. I mean, she parroted a 5 00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:14,880 Speaker 2: lot of what President Biden has said, that it's time 6 00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:18,239 Speaker 2: to end this thing and to get everybody home. And 7 00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:20,920 Speaker 2: she did offer though a little bit of a I 8 00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:23,400 Speaker 2: guess for her, it would have been a more forceful 9 00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:26,000 Speaker 2: tone about how urgent this is. And I think both 10 00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:28,880 Speaker 2: sides would like to see something happen before the election 11 00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 2: in November. But the question is is this going to 12 00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:34,879 Speaker 2: happen on President Biden's watch or is this going to 13 00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:38,320 Speaker 2: happen after November? And should it happen if Kamala Harris 14 00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:40,120 Speaker 2: ends up being the one that gets into the White House? 15 00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:44,280 Speaker 1: And so was what was the meeting between Kamala Harrison 16 00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:46,360 Speaker 1: nit Nat who liked? Was it frosty. 17 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:49,960 Speaker 2: A little bit? I mean, she didn't show up yesterday 18 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:52,240 Speaker 2: because she was campaigning at the speech, and traditionally the 19 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 2: vice president does do that. But obviously things have changed 20 00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:58,720 Speaker 2: in the last the last few weeks, and so she 21 00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 2: had a chance to to with him one on one 22 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:04,440 Speaker 2: after he met with President Biden. And I think she's 23 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 2: saying that this conversation is a little Oh, she used 24 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 2: the word I think binary when she said when when 25 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:13,559 Speaker 2: the reality is it's anything but and it's a little 26 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:17,120 Speaker 2: bit more complicated than people have made it out to be. 27 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 2: But again, I think she's just trying to sew her 28 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,680 Speaker 2: oats and I think she is a little more frosty 29 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:23,959 Speaker 2: than President Biden. 30 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:25,759 Speaker 1: But let's be honest about this. She could say, well, 31 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:27,319 Speaker 1: she wants to say a hit of the election, but 32 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:29,200 Speaker 1: if she was to win and become the president, there 33 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:31,320 Speaker 1: is no way she's pulling support for Israel. 34 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 2: As a I don't think. 35 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 1: So, no, no situation. Yeah, Now, what's up with the 36 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: FBI saying it wasn't a bullet? 37 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:40,320 Speaker 2: Well, isn't this kind of interesting because we've all seen 38 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:43,120 Speaker 2: the pictures in the video and the aar bandage that 39 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 2: Donald Trump's got. But the FBI director Christopher Ray says 40 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 2: they're not sure whether a bullet actually struck a former 41 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 2: President Trump or if he was hit by shrapnel when 42 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 2: the gunman opened fire in Pennsylvania. So he says, I 43 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 2: think and this is a quote he said, I think 44 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 2: with respect to the former president, there's some question about 45 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:05,560 Speaker 2: whether or not it's a bullet or shrapnel that actually 46 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 2: hit his ear. I don't think it really matters between 47 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:11,240 Speaker 2: us right now at this point. Shrapnel obviously isn't as 48 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,640 Speaker 2: dramatic as as Donald Trump telling the story of a 49 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 2: bullet barely missing him by whatever it was, a tenth 50 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 2: of an inch or not. But again, this is just 51 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 2: going to stoke the fire of you know, mainstream media 52 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 2: and government and everybody sort of changing the narrative of 53 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 2: what actually happened with Donald Trump. 54 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 1: I mean, it was kind of interesting. Well, it's fascinating 55 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 1: that he did this, though, because it's like, it's not 56 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 1: like the FBI have got the greatest relationship. All the 57 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,359 Speaker 1: authorities got the greatest relationship with Donald Trump. So it's 58 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:42,359 Speaker 1: just an it's just buying an unnecessary fight, isn't it. 59 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 2: It kind of seems that way, especially when when Trump's 60 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 2: campaign released a doctor's note saying that he did sustain 61 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 2: this gunshot into his ride ear and it was less 62 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 2: than a quarter of an inch from entering his head, 63 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 2: and it struck the top of his ride ear. And 64 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:58,919 Speaker 2: then you have the head of the FBI coming out 65 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:00,240 Speaker 2: and saying, well. 66 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: I mean, if he doesn't want to, if he wants 67 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 1: to keep all possible options open, he may as well 68 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 1: have included a WASP as well. You know why, I 69 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:09,840 Speaker 1: don't know. 70 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 2: I don't know. 71 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 1: That was just dumb from him, wasn't it? Anyway? Listen 72 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:17,360 Speaker 1: Milanius Trump Trump's memoir Win is it out? 73 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 2: I Well, it's going to be out this fall. And 74 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 2: I'm always fascinated about the timing of these books and 75 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 2: when they come out and why because she's been she 76 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 2: hasn't been a supportive of her husband this time around, 77 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 2: has she? And the officer's billing. This is a powerful 78 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 2: and inspiring story of a woman who has carved her 79 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 2: own path. My question is how much of this is 80 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 2: going to be fact, how much will be fiction? How 81 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 2: much did Donald Trump have to sign off before this 82 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 2: book got to be published. And what's also interesting about this, Heather, 83 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 2: is that the book is going to be published by 84 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 2: a group called Skyhorse Publishing, and they released books by 85 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 2: former Trump insider Michael Cohen, who, as we all know, 86 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 2: later became one of Donald Trump's harshest critics. And we 87 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 2: don't know how much she was paid to write the book, 88 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 2: or if she worked with a co author, or if 89 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 2: she's going to hit the promotional trail ahead of the 90 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 2: November election. So, I mean, there's more that we don't 91 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,120 Speaker 2: know about this book than that we do know about 92 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 2: this book. 93 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: Do you think it's going to be juicy? 94 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 2: No, I don't tell you because I think there's so much. 95 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 2: There's so much in a pre nuptial agreement that in 96 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 2: non disclosure that she's I think there's going to be 97 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,359 Speaker 2: a lot about her early childhood and up until the 98 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,160 Speaker 2: time maybe she met Donald Trump. But I think all 99 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 2: the stuff we want to be in that book is 100 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 2: not going to be. 101 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 1: In that Yeah, it's so unfortunate. I think you're right, Dan, 102 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 1: Thank you very much, look after yourself this weekend.
