1
00:00:01,360 --> 00:00:03,760
Speaker 1: Hello. I'm Mikayla Carr with a look back on the

2
00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:08,440
Speaker 1: biggest news stories of twenty twenty four. February fourteen is

3
00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:11,280
Speaker 1: traditionally the day of love, and the Prime Minister was

4
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:14,920
Speaker 1: feeling it when he announced he was betrothed to longtime

5
00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:16,520
Speaker 1: partner Jody Hayden.

6
00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:20,400
Speaker 2: Will now have those discussions between us which I think

7
00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:21,200
Speaker 2: Clue would.

8
00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:24,040
Speaker 3: Understand and sort out those details.

9
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:26,480
Speaker 1: The couple says their wedding plans are on the bag

10
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:29,600
Speaker 1: burner and they won't be tying the knot until after

11
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:33,760
Speaker 1: the next federal election. Australian journalism lost one of its

12
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:38,200
Speaker 1: best when former sixty Minutes reported George Niggas passed away

13
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:41,960
Speaker 1: in October. Known as the journal with the jackets slung

14
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 1: over his shoulder, Niggas was also revered as the man

15
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:49,559
Speaker 1: who asked the tough questions of former Prime Minister in Britain,

16
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 1: Margaret Thatcher.

17
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 4: Why do people stop us in the street almost and

18
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 4: tell us that Margaret Thatcher isn't just inflexible, she's not

19
00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:59,000
Speaker 4: just a single mind. And on occasion she's playing pighead

20
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 4: and won't be told. We don't tell me who has

21
00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:04,160
Speaker 4: stopped you in the street And said that we don't

22
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 4: tell me who and where and whereins in restaurants, then

23
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:10,840
Speaker 4: I would say at least.

24
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,080
Speaker 1: One in two. Nigas went on to become the founding

25
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 1: host of the ABC's Foreign Correspondent and was famously parodied

26
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:21,039
Speaker 1: by Paul Hogan. And the world looked to France in

27
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 1: July for the Games of the thirty third Olympiad and

28
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 1: no surprises that our swimmers scoop the pool literally. But

29
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 1: the biggest Australian story came out of the Games and

30
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:36,840
Speaker 1: it was a kangaroo hopping sprinklers spraying brakdancer called Raygun.

31
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 3: Everyone's still talking about the competitor from Australia named Rey Gun.

32
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,959
Speaker 1: You have to wonder where Reygun is right now?

33
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 3: What about music coming from.

34
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 1: Jimmy Fallon among the many comedians to mock the Aussie

35
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 1: who later spoke of the damage the episode had had

36
00:01:59,920 --> 00:02:04,240
Speaker 1: on her metal health when the haters hated Rachel Gunn

37
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 1: is now being steered by one of the country's top

38
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 1: pr agents and is laughing or hopping all the way

39
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,360
Speaker 1: to the bad terror. In April, for shoppers of a

40
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 1: Westfield in Sydney, where a forty year old man ran

41
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 1: a muck with a knife, stabbing people at random. Six

42
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,520
Speaker 1: were killed and twelve others injured.

43
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:26,240
Speaker 5: About three point thirty this afternoon, mail with the knife

44
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 5: entered the Westfield shopping center at Bondi Junction and attacked

45
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:36,040
Speaker 5: a number of people. A police offers responded and faced

46
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 5: that man and neutralized their threat within that shopping center.

47
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:43,640
Speaker 1: The New South Wales Police Commissioner Karen Webb what followed

48
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 1: were many tales of heroism, security guards who called out

49
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:49,960
Speaker 1: to shoppers ahead of the killer, and a young mother

50
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,519
Speaker 1: who saved her baby by giving it to bystanders before

51
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 1: she became one of the victims. Still reeling from the

52
00:02:56,600 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 1: stabbing murders at Bondi Junction. Just days later, extremism hit

53
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 1: a church in Sydney's West A young man approaching a

00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,240
Speaker 1: to head to the place of worship before attacking police

56
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaker 1: and paramedics baying for the blood of the young offender. Meanwhile,

57
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 1: the doctors and the Eagles could only dream of September action,

58
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,679
Speaker 1: leaving Sydney and Brisbane to fight it out in an

59
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 1: all interstate grand final at the mcg pre entertainment by

60
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:33,360
Speaker 1: Katie Perry revved up the crowd, but the Swans just

61
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 1: couldn't get started, thrashed by the lines to the Tune

62
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 1: of sixty Points and the lines of port Lightning in

63
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 1: a Bottle. Another year, another defeat for longtime Sydney coach

64
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 1: John Longmire, who's now handed over the reins to his

65
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 1: assistant and former premiership eagle Dean Cox. Singer Taylor Swift

66
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 1: brought her Ears tour to Australia in February. That March,

67
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 1: she broke her gig records with not one, but three

68
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 1: shows at the MCG You got ten people on the store,

Speaker 1: being released following a deal by the United States after

72
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 1: being accused of espionage by the Americans. He took shelter

73
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:29,679
Speaker 1: for many years at the Ecuadorian embassy in London.

74
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 6: The experience of isolation for years in a small cell

75
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 6: is difficult to convey. It strips away one sense of self,

76
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 6: leaving only the raw essence of existence. I am yet

77
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 6: not fully equipped to speak about what I have.

78
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:48,800

86
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:12,840
Speaker 3: That's good right.

87
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 1: John Blackman was seventy six. Not many have an instantly

88
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:22,839
Speaker 1: recognizable voice. James Earl Jones, although an accomplished actor, was

89
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 1: best known as Movefasser from The Lion King and this

90
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:31,720
Speaker 1: ominous character from the Dark Side I Knew the Father.

91
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,120
Speaker 1: Jones was one of the few performers to achieve the

92
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 1: so called egot, winning an Emmy, a Grammy, an Oscar

93
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:43,039
Speaker 1: and a Tony. James Earl Jones died in September. He

Speaker 1: After several agonizing days with their families by their sides,

97
00:05:56,520 --> 00:06:01,320
Speaker 1: the two Australian girls passed away.

98
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:04,840
Speaker 7: So beautiful girl and hope her loss of life has

99
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:06,719
Speaker 7: not been in vain. I would like to take this

100
00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 7: opportunity to urge the Allow government to investigate this to

101
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 7: the force extent to make sure this incident doesn't happen again.

102
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:17,839
Speaker 1: That's the father of Bianca Jones. He also called on

103
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:21,479
Speaker 1: the Laos government to take action, and so far eight

104
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,800
Speaker 1: people have been arrested and much of the world shuddered

105
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:28,279
Speaker 1: to a halt in July when computers around the globe

106
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,720
Speaker 1: said no Russell was on air and I shared important

107
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,360
Speaker 1: news updates while he worked out ways to keep the

108
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 1: music on air on the air until the cassette runs out. We,

109
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 1: like many many companies worldwide, it appears, are suffering from

110
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 1: a software issue, which means not much as working. After

111
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:51,480
Speaker 1: that day, CrowdStrike became common vernacular. After holding the world

112
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,679
Speaker 1: hostage with an outage the scale of which has never

113
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:58,279

Speaker 1: Camilla to a stratea for the first time in October.

115
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 1: It wasn't a warm welcome at Parliament House in Canberra,

116
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:09,040
Speaker 1: though from Independent Indigenous senator Lydia Thorpe and that was

117
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 1: captured live on TV. She was then escorted from the

118
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:22,680
Speaker 1: building and later censured by the Senate. Thorpe says she

119
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 1: has no regrets and would continue her campaign fighting against

120
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 1: the monarchy. The war in the Middle East came far

121
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 1: too close to home in April when Australian aid worker

00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 3: Zombie was relentless.

125
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:48,440
Speaker 8: She was huge hearted and just really dedicated and really driven, worked.

126
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,480
Speaker 3: All hours and just would put everything into it.

127
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 1: An investigation followed and it was determined that an Israeli

128
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 1: missile had hit the aid workers by accident. And Music

129
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 1: lost another singer far too young in October, with Liam

130
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 1: Payne from One Direction found dead after falling from a

131
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 1: balcony in Argentina to kill. Payne was thirty one and

132
00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 1: the father of a small child. He married the singer

133
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,520
Speaker 1: Sheryl Cole, who was one of the judges who discovered

134
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 1: him on X Factor, leading to his inclusion in one

135
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 1: of the most successful boy bands in history. Dame Maggie

136
00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 1: Smith was a legend of the entertainment world, gracing the

137
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 1: stage cinemas and the small screen since the nineteen fifties.

138
00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:43,559
Speaker 1: In most recent times she was known as the feisty Dowager,

139
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:49,199
Speaker 1: Countess of Grantham or Violet Crawley and resided in Downton Abbey,

140
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 1: and before that she was immortalized as Harry Potter Tutor

141
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,959
Speaker 1: Minerva McGonagall in the series About the Boy Wizard.

142
00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 8: Now, in a few moments, you will pass through these

143
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,320
Speaker 8: doors and join your classmates. But before you can take

144
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,800
Speaker 8: your seats, you must be sorted into your hoses. They

145
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 8: are Gryffindor, Huffulpuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin.

146
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:14,080
Speaker 1: Maggie Smith won many awards, including two Oscars. She left

147
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 1: us in September, the ripe old age of eighty nine.

148
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:20,480
Speaker 1: The shooting of an innocent mother and her daughter in

149
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 1: Florte in May sparked an emotional debate in w Way

150
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 1: about domestic violence. The daughter of the man responsible for

151
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:31,600
Speaker 1: their deaths accused police of not listening to her when

152
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,359
Speaker 1: she warned them about her father's cash of weapons.

153
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:37,959
Speaker 9: On each occasion, I alerted officers to my father's guns

154
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,319
Speaker 9: and told them my mother and I felt there was

155
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,080
Speaker 9: a real and imminent.

156
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 1: Threat to our lives.

157
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 9: I specifically mentioned that there was a glockhand gun which

158
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 9: was unaccounted for. My understanding is this ultimately would be

159
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,720
Speaker 9: one of the weapons that my father used to take

160
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 9: the lives of two innocent women.

161
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:58,560
Speaker 1: An internal police inquiry is looking into the response to

162
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 1: her claims. Ten years after they were sentenced to an

163
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:06,320
Speaker 1: Indonesian jail for drug trafficking, wat's left of the Bally

164
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:10,040
Speaker 1: nine came home after a deal struck by the federal government.

165
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,439
Speaker 1: The group flew into Melbourne in December, free men.

166
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 2: They did a serious crime and they have rightly paid

167
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:19,160
Speaker 2: a serious price for it.

168
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 1: When it was time for then come home. The ring

169
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 1: leaders of the drugs operation were executed in twenty fifteen.

170
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,560
Speaker 1: One of the mules was released early and another died

171
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 1: from cancer while incarcerated. Two Perth brothers were on a

172
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 1: surfing holiday of a lifetime in Mexico when they disappeared

173
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:38,320
Speaker 1: in April.

174
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:41,880
Speaker 10: Yeah, look, this is obviously very worrying for the families involved.

175
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:45,640
Speaker 10: When we do send our young men and women overseas

176
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:49,880
Speaker 10: to enjoy that adventure holiday, they invite an element of

177
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 10: risk and this is really quite distressing.

178
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:56,120
Speaker 1: As time unfolded, the bodies of Jake and Callum Robinson,

179
00:10:56,520 --> 00:11:00,320
Speaker 1: as well as their American friend, were found killed for

180
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:03,880
Speaker 1: the tires on their van. A foundation has been set

181
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,559
Speaker 1: up in their honor. Nine oh two one Oho was

182
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:14,320
Speaker 1: the postcode where everyone wanted to live in the nineteen nineties.

183
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 1: One of the stars was Shannon Doherty, who played twin

184
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:23,840
Speaker 1: of Brandon Brenda. She also starred in the supernatural series Charmed.

185
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:28,080
Speaker 1: Dohity developed breast cancer in recent years and passed away

186
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:31,560
Speaker 1: in Hollywood in July. She was only fifty three. A

187
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:35,040
Speaker 1: q from experts concerned about the mental health of the

188
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:39,440
Speaker 1: Insta and Facebook generation, the federal government passed a law

189
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 1: banning anyone under the age of sixteen from having a

190
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:46,719
Speaker 1: social media account, and the Prime Minister was unapologetic.

191
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:52,080
Speaker 2: There is a clear causal link between the rise of

192
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 2: social media and the harm for the mental health of

193
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 2: young Australians. And can I say when I was talking

194
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:05,280
Speaker 2: with leaders, they are all looking at what we are doing,

195
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 2: and they are applauding what we are doing.

196
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,800
Speaker 1: And while some are hailing this world first, others are

197
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 1: dubious about its success. Time will tell, as the band

198
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 1: doesn't come into effect until the end of twenty twenty

199
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 1: five in March, in scenes normally captured in lower socioeconomic countries,

200
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 1: a bridge in Baltimore in the US was partially destroyed

201
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,120
Speaker 1: after a cargo ship crashed into it.

202
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 5: The entire key bridge in the harbor.

203
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:36,200
Speaker 1: Six members of a maintenance crew were killed after the

204
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:39,680
Speaker 1: structure started to break up when the vessel steering gave

205
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 1: way and it slammed into the structure. In July, time

206
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 1: was up for Eagles coach Adam Simpson. Despite a premiership

207
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 1: in twenty eighteen, a couple of very lean years with

208
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 1: few wins saw the vultures circling and the former North

209
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:56,960
Speaker 1: Melbourne player fell on his sharon.

210
00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:00,839
Speaker 11: Obviously, a decision has been made and it's mutual. I

211
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 11: feel like the time's right. You know, I've reasonably stoic

212
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:05,280
Speaker 11: over the last few years about the direction of the

213
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:08,679
Speaker 11: club and now it's a slow burn and it's going

214
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:10,840
Speaker 11: to take a bit of time, and that my position

215
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,320
Speaker 11: hasn't changed, but I think it's the right call.

216
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:17,280
Speaker 1: In the nineteen eighties aerobics phase wasn't just about women

217
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:21,840
Speaker 1: in skimpy g string leotards. Richard Simmons was the king

218
00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:24,839
Speaker 1: of that era and the darling of the talk show

219
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:29,600
Speaker 1: circuit where he loved to chat about his shorts since.

220
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 3: Nineteen seventy seven.

221
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 6: These are relics.

222
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 8: These belong in to Smithsonian, But I can't give it

223
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 8: to him because they teach four hundred and fifty classes

224
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 8: every year all around the country.

225
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:40,320
Speaker 3: Getting people healthy.

226
00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:44,559
Speaker 1: The American fitness instructor couldn't beat cancer or a heart attack,

227
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,880
Speaker 1: which led to his death in July. He was seventy six.

228
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,199
Speaker 1: And the biggest news story of the year is going

229
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 1: to keep giving in twenty twenty five, and only one

230
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:57,720
Speaker 1: word is required. Trump. It was a topsy turvy here

231
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 1: in US politics, and it came to head in fact

232
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:08,080
Speaker 1: an ear when the Donalds was shot during a campaign rally.

233
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:16,120
Speaker 1: But a clip on the ear leisterally wasn't going to

234
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 1: stop the former American President, who left the stage with

235
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 1: blood trickling down his face and his arm raised with

236
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,600
Speaker 1: a fist. It was too much, though for his opponent,

237
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:30,640
Speaker 1: current President Joe Biden, withdrawing from the race.

238
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:33,520
Speaker 4: Nothing can come in the way of saving our democracy

239
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:35,280
Speaker 4: that includes personal ambition.

240
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,240
Speaker 3: So I've decided the best way forward is the past,

241
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:40,840
Speaker 3: the torch for a new generation. That's the best wading a.

242
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 6: Nine O nation.

243
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 1: So in came his VP, Kamala Harris on behalf of

244
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:52,520
Speaker 1: everyone whose story could only be written in the greatest

245
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 1: nation on Earth. I accept your nomination to.

246
00:14:58,880 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 9: Be pre.

247
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 1: There was another assassination attempt while Trump was playing golf.

248
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:11,520
Speaker 1: No injuries this time, but his security was further beefed up.

249
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 1: According to the millionaire during his only debate with Harris.

250
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:18,720
Speaker 1: Protection might also be required for American pets from the

251
00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:22,160
Speaker 1: clutches of migrants from Haiti in Springfield.

252
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:25,920
Speaker 3: They're eating the dogs the people that came in. They're

253
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 3: eating the cats, They're eating the pets of the people

254
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 3: that live there. And this is what's happening in our country.

255
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:38,400
Speaker 1: And despite that declaration, Donald J. Trump went on to

256
00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:41,280
Speaker 1: beat Harris comprehensively in November.

257
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 3: It is now clear that we've achieved the most incredible

258
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:48,560
Speaker 3: political there. Look what happened is this crazy?

259
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:54,680
Speaker 1: And Trump will continue to grab headlines after he's inaugurated

260
00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 1: in the new year ninety six. An
