Speaker 1: Live on Sky News. This his Sharry.
0:07
Speaker 2: Good Evening. Massive newsday today, both in the US and locally,
0:11
Speaker 2: the leader of the Free World, Joe Biden, could barely
0:14
Speaker 2: deliver a coherent speech the US capital overrun by Hamas
0:18
Speaker 2: supporters and Israeli Prime Minister Benjaminett and Yahoo delivered his
0:23
Speaker 2: most powerful argument yet for Western support of Israel. You
0:28
Speaker 2: can hardly compare Biden's weak remarks with the strength of
0:33
Speaker 2: the Israeli leader.
0:34
Speaker 3: And that day, I told you, as I stood in
0:36
Speaker 3: that winter, We're still in a winter of peril and
0:41
Speaker 3: winner possibility for.
0:43
Speaker 4: The forces of civilization to triumph. America and Israel must
0:48
Speaker 4: stand together.
0:50
Speaker 2: And yet eighty Democrats who claimed to support democracy couldn't
0:54
Speaker 2: even sit there and listen to what Netinnahu had to say.
0:58
Speaker 2: I'm going to come back to that in a minute.
1:00
Speaker 2: Here in Australia, meanwhile, economists are warning a recession could
1:04
Speaker 2: be on the cards. This is Wall Street had its
1:06
Speaker 2: worst day in almost two years, with a one trillion
1:10
Speaker 2: dollar wipeout, and Albinezie announced the retirement of two ministers,
1:15
Speaker 2: sparking a cabinet reshuffle. This opens the way for Andrew Giles'
1:20
Speaker 2: demotion finally, well, let's get into it tonight.
1:23
Speaker 5: Well.
1:23
Speaker 2: In his speech, Joe Biden vowed to call out hate, extremism,
1:28
Speaker 2: and violence, Yet the very city from where he spoke
1:31
Speaker 2: had just been overrun by lawlessness, vile, racism, and anarchy.
1:37
Speaker 2: Washington today looked more like the Harmas headquarters in Gaza
1:41
Speaker 2: than it did the heart and soul of America. Her
1:45
Speaker 2: Musk supporters, and we have to repeat that seriously, her
1:48
Speaker 2: Musk supporters. How can they even be supporters for the
1:52
Speaker 2: gun toting monsters who behead, rape and slaughter innocent families.
1:58
Speaker 2: Yet there are, and they turned out in Washington, defiling
2:01
Speaker 2: the Christopher Columbus Memorial Fountain with the words her muss
2:06
Speaker 2: is coming. Yep, the killers, butchers and rapists are coming.
2:12
Speaker 2: These vile activists burned an effigy of Nettan Yahoo, the
2:16
Speaker 2: Prime minister who's trying to eliminate the terrorists and bring
2:20
Speaker 2: home innocent hostages from Gaza, including a baby, his little
2:25
Speaker 2: brother and their mum. Those two children stolen it just
2:29
Speaker 2: nine months old and four years old, the world's youngest hostages.
2:49
Speaker 2: The pro Palestinian activists burned the American and Israeli flags
2:53
Speaker 2: while waving the green her Musk flag and chanting.
3:02
Speaker 6: Palieside will be free, Alide will be free.
3:12
Speaker 2: Sign and a massive Palestinian flag where Hamas is the
3:18
Speaker 2: current governing body, was unfurled on the street. The American
3:22
Speaker 2: flag torn down from Union station and instead the Palestinian
3:27
Speaker 2: flag was hoisted and flown. The Hamas supporters grew violent.
3:32
Speaker 2: They clashed with police, who used tear gas to control
3:36
Speaker 2: the crowd. There were many arrests. Now, it's one thing
3:41
Speaker 2: to mourn the loss of life in Gaza. It is
3:44
Speaker 2: tragic and we all mourn it. And you may disagree
3:48
Speaker 2: with how Israel has pursued Hamas in Gaza, but to
3:52
Speaker 2: support Hermas, to support the terrorists who not only forced
3:57
Speaker 2: Israel into this war that it never won, but deliberately
4:01
Speaker 2: put its own people, the Palestinian people, in harm's way
4:05
Speaker 2: day after day, by hiding within civilian populations, by refusing
4:10
Speaker 2: to cooperate with ceasefire proposals, and by welcoming a high
4:15
Speaker 2: death toll in order to turn the West against Israel.
4:20
Speaker 2: Every single soul who has perished in this war is
4:24
Speaker 2: entirely on her Muss's hands. Her must chose to start
4:27
Speaker 2: the war. Nine months ago, but it also could have
4:31
Speaker 2: ended the war at any point since then if it's
4:33
Speaker 2: simply chose to hand back innocent hostages, young people and surrender.
4:40
Speaker 2: But there's a reason her mus won't hand back hostages.
4:43
Speaker 2: There's a reason her Musk refuses every ceasefire proposal, and
4:48
Speaker 2: it's this. The terrorist group wants to prolong the war
4:53
Speaker 2: because while they're losing ground in Gaza, they're winning internationally
4:57
Speaker 2: with more support than ever in the West, especially among
5:02
Speaker 2: the idiotic, confused millennials who sadly make up our next generation.
5:08
Speaker 2: But there can be no confusion. To support her Muss,
5:12
Speaker 2: as we saw in Washington today, is to support evil.
5:17
Speaker 2: It's to support among the most malicious and barbaric acts
5:21
Speaker 2: ever inflicted on human beings, on par with Hitler's atrocities.
5:27
Speaker 2: To support her Muss is to unequivocally be on the
5:30
Speaker 2: wrong side of history and humanity. Now. Benjamin Netanyahu unquestionably
5:38
Speaker 2: a controversial politician, loved and loathed by Israeli's in almost
5:44
Speaker 2: equal measure. Well, he did deliver a powerful speech today
5:49
Speaker 2: where he articulated very clearly the enemy his country is
5:53
Speaker 2: up against.
5:54
Speaker 4: These monsters. They rape women, they beheaded men, they burnt
6:01
Speaker 4: babies alive. They killed parents in front of their children,
6:09
Speaker 4: and children in front of their parents. They dragged two
6:14
Speaker 4: hundred and fifty five people, both living and dead, into
6:18
Speaker 4: the dark dungeons of Gaza. The ICC is trying to
6:21
Speaker 4: shackle Israel's hands and prevent us from defending ourselves. And
6:25
Speaker 4: if Israel's hands are tied, America is next. And I'll
6:30
Speaker 4: tell you what else is next. The ability of all
6:33
Speaker 4: democracies to fight terrorism will be imperiled. That's what's on
6:37
Speaker 4: the line.
6:39
Speaker 2: And He's right, And those protesters who burned the American
6:43
Speaker 2: flag only reinforced Netanyahu's point to Congress that Israel's enemies
6:50
Speaker 2: are America's enemies.
6:52
Speaker 4: Defeating our brutal enemies requires both courage and clarity. Clarity
6:59
Speaker 4: begins by knowing the difference between good and evil. Yet
7:05
Speaker 4: incredibly many anti Israel protesters, many choose to stand with evil.
7:13
Speaker 4: They stand with hamas they stand with rapists and murderers.
7:17
Speaker 4: They should be ashamed of themselves.
7:21
Speaker 2: So as this debate heats up internationally, including in Australia,
7:26
Speaker 2: let's be very clear. Israel is trying to eliminate the
7:29
Speaker 2: terrorists who killed entire families and stole hostages.
7:35
Speaker 1: There could be.
7:36
Speaker 2: No other response than to eliminate the terrorists, much the
7:40
Speaker 2: same way that America went after Osama bin Laden and
7:43
Speaker 2: the other perpetrators of nine to eleven, much the same
7:46
Speaker 2: way the Allies destroyed the Nazis in World War Two.
7:51
Speaker 2: Despite the heavy loss of life, and there were an
7:54
Speaker 2: estimated forty million civilians killed in the World War, no
8:00
Speaker 2: civilized government would abandon two hundred and fifty innocent citizens, including,
8:06
Speaker 2: as I said, a baby and his four year old brother,
8:09
Speaker 2: to the grips of armed terrorists. Any rational person would
8:14
Speaker 2: agree that that notion is intolerable and impossible. Yet the
8:20
Speaker 2: scenes on the streets of Washington today show us that
8:23
Speaker 2: the longer this war wage is on, the more the
8:26
Speaker 2: woke brigade find a reason to condone terrorism and find
8:30
Speaker 2: excuses for anti Semitism. And I'll be crossing live to
8:37
Speaker 2: the United States to break all of this down. And
8:40
Speaker 2: it was a big day. Biden's speech will come back
8:42
Speaker 2: to that. I'm going to have former acting Attorney General
8:45
Speaker 2: in the Trump administration on the show. Also a Republican
8:48
Speaker 2: National Committee spokeswoman. Shortly, but now let's bring in tonight's
8:52
Speaker 2: panel the Australians National Affairs Editor Joe Kelly and National
8:55
Speaker 2: Senator Matt Canavan. Welcome to you both. I first want
9:00
Speaker 2: to start with Netanyahu's speech to Congress that I've just
9:02
Speaker 2: been speaking about. What's your analysis of the pitch that
9:07
Speaker 2: he delivered to some of them quite hostile Congress members.
9:13
Speaker 6: Yes, Cherry, good to be on the program. I too,
9:15
Speaker 6: thought it was a very powerful speech by Benjamin Netanyahu.
9:21
Speaker 6: I think he made the case that this is a
9:25
Speaker 6: conflict in which America is fighting, in which Israel is
9:32
Speaker 6: fighting a new barbarism. This is not a clash of civilizations,
9:36
Speaker 6: as Samuel Huntington suggested, This is a clash for the
9:41
Speaker 6: future of democracy and the values which we share, that
9:46
Speaker 6: Israel shares with America and which Australia should share as well.
9:50
Speaker 6: I think it was a very powerful pitch, but I
9:53
Speaker 6: do think that there is a divide in the American
9:58
Speaker 6: political system. We saw very strong criticism of netnya who
10:03
Speaker 6: made by a number of prominent Democrats, and I think
10:07
Speaker 6: that they are growing increasingly frustrated with him because there
10:12
Speaker 6: are reports that the Biden administration is trying to work
10:15
Speaker 6: on a broader political solution to end the conflict. This
10:20
Speaker 6: would still see a phased release of hostages, but essentially
10:24
Speaker 6: it would try and come up with a solution in
10:27
Speaker 6: which Israel and key Arab nations could come together to
10:34
Speaker 6: oppose the new power and threat represented by Irand so
10:40
Speaker 6: I think that there is a fundamental difference in strategy,
10:45
Speaker 6: and I do also think that this could play into
10:47
Speaker 6: the political contest going forward. I think it would do
10:52
Speaker 6: a great service for Kamala Harris if Joe Biden and
10:55
Speaker 6: Benjamin Netanya, who were able to come together and actually
11:00
Speaker 6: on a plan to try and get a negotiated outcome
11:04
Speaker 6: that's acceptable to everyone. But obviously that will be a
11:07
Speaker 6: very difficult task.
11:08
Speaker 2: Character Yeah, indeed, and there is the concern that Kamala
11:11
Speaker 2: Harris may have, or in fact she does, have a
11:14
Speaker 2: more critical view on Israel than Biden, does. You know,
11:17
Speaker 2: Despite the tensions in Biden and Netanyahu's relationship, and there
11:21
Speaker 2: are tensions there, unquestionably they've spilled over into the public domain.
11:25
Speaker 2: Biden has over his entire career been a firm supporter
11:29
Speaker 2: of Israel, as has the United States whoever has been
11:32
Speaker 2: in power. Matt Biden spoke for the first time since
11:36
Speaker 2: announcing he was quitting the presidential race. Let's have a
11:39
Speaker 2: listen to that.
11:40
Speaker 3: So I've decided the best way forward is the past,
11:43
Speaker 3: the torch for new generation. It's the best waiting an
11:47
Speaker 3: in our nation. You know, there is a time and
11:51
Speaker 3: a place for long years of experience in public life.
11:55
Speaker 3: So there's also a time and a place for new voices,
11:58
Speaker 3: fresh voices, yes, younger voices, and that time and places now.
12:05
Speaker 2: Matt Canavan, I thought that was quite a feeble speech,
12:08
Speaker 2: and you know it also, it really was incredible to
12:12
Speaker 2: think that just last week he said only the Lord
12:14
Speaker 2: Almighty could stop him from running again. And then there
12:17
Speaker 2: was no explanation for why he suddenly came to the
12:20
Speaker 2: epiphany that it was time to pass the torch to
12:23
Speaker 2: a younger generation.
12:24
Speaker 7: What do you think, Well, the only explanation was that
12:29
Speaker 7: he'd lost the support of his own party.
12:31
Speaker 1: That's the brief explanation he gave.
12:34
Speaker 7: Obviously, he felt he was still capable of running and
12:38
Speaker 7: winning the election. Look, I thought the speech ticked the boxes,
12:43
Speaker 7: so to speak of HARKing back to America's story beginning
12:48
Speaker 7: and ideals that it was founded upon. But there is
12:53
Speaker 7: this still I think tension in the arguments that the
12:57
Speaker 7: Democratic Party are putting forward in apparently they're running to
13:01
Speaker 7: save democracy for all Americans sometimes even the world. Yet
13:06
Speaker 7: if the American people were to elect and vote for
13:10
Speaker 7: their opponents, that somehow would end democracy. I don't know
13:13
Speaker 7: how that circle is squared. I mean, that is democracy.
13:17
Speaker 7: It's up to the people to decide. But somehow to
13:20
Speaker 7: suggest that the election, the election of your political opponent
13:24
Speaker 7: would end a democracy as we know it just seems
13:28
Speaker 7: completely absurd and nonsensical. So look, I think I sort
13:32
Speaker 7: of hope perhaps after the shocking events of the last
13:35
Speaker 7: couple of weeks and the almost assassination of Donald Trump,
13:39
Speaker 7: that some of that outlandish rhetoric would be softened, But
13:43
Speaker 7: it doesn't seem to be the case. It still heightens
13:46
Speaker 7: the stakes on all of these questions, which should be
13:48
Speaker 7: brought down to more on the ground level in my view.
13:51
Speaker 2: Yeah, Joe, I thought the actual crafting of the speech,
13:54
Speaker 2: you know, the speechwriters did a good job. Some of
13:57
Speaker 2: it was beautiful if it would have been delivered well,
13:59
Speaker 2: but you know, it was so hard to watch. You
14:02
Speaker 2: wanted him to give an impressive performance because this is
14:05
Speaker 2: such a legacy defining speech, was such an important speech
14:09
Speaker 2: for him. He had his family there, they were emotional,
14:13
Speaker 2: but you just got the sense the whole time that
14:15
Speaker 2: he was struggling to read it. He was a minute
14:18
Speaker 2: away from a stumble or a gaffer. It was just weak.
14:21
Speaker 6: What did you think, Cherry, You mentioned just their legacy
14:26
Speaker 6: sort of defining speech for I think the problem for
14:30
Speaker 6: Joe Biden is he wants to convince Americans now that
14:34
Speaker 6: this was never about him. It wasn't about his personal ambition.
14:38
Speaker 6: He revers the office, but he loves America more. He's
14:40
Speaker 6: putting American families first. But the reality is I think
14:45
Speaker 6: the problem with the speech is everyone knows that that's
14:47
Speaker 6: not authentic, that's not real. As Matt said, what happened.
14:52
Speaker 6: I mean even two weeks ago, Joe Biden said it
14:56
Speaker 6: would take God Almighty himself, yes, to come down Heaven
15:00
Speaker 6: and tell him you better withdraw from the race. Well,
15:02
Speaker 6: that didn't happen. He lost the support, he lost the
15:05
Speaker 6: support of his party.
15:06
Speaker 2: And as of course, you think that Nancy Pelosi is
15:09
Speaker 2: God Almighty and probably some people revere her as much
15:12
Speaker 2: as if she was God.
15:14
Speaker 6: Well, look, I think you talked about legacy. I think
15:18
Speaker 6: he talked about unity for the party. But I think
15:21
Speaker 6: what's happened is he held on too long. The party
15:24
Speaker 6: now has been forced to rally around Kamala Harris. It
15:27
Speaker 6: hasn't had an open and competitive process nomination process, and
15:32
Speaker 6: if she goes on to lose the presidential election, I
15:37
Speaker 6: think the legacy issue for Joe Biden will be that
15:40
Speaker 6: he effectively handicapped the Democrats by holding on for too long.
15:45
Speaker 6: And I think that a lot of the lofty ideals
15:47
Speaker 6: which he expressed today will be seen as inauthentic. So
15:51
Speaker 6: that's the dilemmas. And obviously had to say all those things,
15:55
Speaker 6: but I'm not sure they had the ring of truth.
15:58
Speaker 7: No.
15:58
Speaker 2: Indeed, now turned to federal politics in Australia, and after
16:02
Speaker 2: weeks of speculation, Anthony Alberinezi finally today announced the resignation
16:07
Speaker 2: of Indigenous Affairs Minister Linda Bernie and the Skills Minister
16:11
Speaker 2: Brendan O'Connor.
16:12
Speaker 8: Have a look, We'll always be grateful for the extraordinary
16:16
Speaker 8: example which these two fine Australians give of.
16:21
Speaker 1: Why people should enter public life.
16:25
Speaker 2: And he'll announce the cabinet reshuffle on Sunday. Andrew Giles,
16:29
Speaker 2: widely expected to go Matt Canavan. You know Linda Burnie's
16:33
Speaker 2: great contribution to public life was putting Indigenous affairs on
16:37
Speaker 2: the table. She would say it's the voice. Clearly that
16:41
Speaker 2: did divide Australia. In the end, in Australian's voted no.
16:45
Speaker 2: So how do you think she'll be remembered.
16:49
Speaker 1: Look, it's a bit hard to say.
16:50
Speaker 7: I think, as you say, her really only major initiative
16:56
Speaker 7: as the Indigenous Affairs minister was was the Voice, and.
17:01
Speaker 1: It utterly failed. I'm not so sure it divided us
17:04
Speaker 1: too much.
17:04
Speaker 7: It united us quite a lot against it, but not
17:06
Speaker 7: in the way that Minister Ernie would have hoped. So look,
17:10
Speaker 7: obviously that will go down in our nation's history. It's
17:15
Speaker 7: one of less than fifty referendus we've had. But her
17:19
Speaker 7: legacy probably will be one that she wasn't successful. But look,
17:23
Speaker 7: she's done her best and I wish her well. The
17:26
Speaker 7: test for Anthony Alberonezi there was not to accept the
17:29
Speaker 7: voluntary resignations he has today. It's to force the resignation
17:33
Speaker 7: of underperforming ministers and show some accountability to the Australian
17:37
Speaker 7: people for such underperformance, as you.
17:39
Speaker 1: Mentioned, Edred Giles.
17:40
Speaker 7: But Clara O'Neil as well has been a partner in
17:43
Speaker 7: crime here in the release of more criminals onto our
17:46
Speaker 7: nation shores since the days of the First Fleet.
17:49
Speaker 1: So that's the real test here.
17:50
Speaker 7: Is there going to be accountability in the Prime Minister's
17:53
Speaker 7: cabinet and ministry for such gross failures of governance?
17:58
Speaker 2: Oh Joe, who do you expect to be promoted and
18:01
Speaker 2: demoted in this reshuffle? And do you think there's any
18:03
Speaker 2: chance because I don't that Andrew Giles will be sacked.
18:06
Speaker 2: I think you'll just be moved to another job.
18:10
Speaker 6: Well, look, we know that there'll be at least two
18:12
Speaker 6: people getting promoted. There are two resignations. They're both left
18:16
Speaker 6: wing positions, so they'll be left wing promotions. It's widely
18:19
Speaker 6: accepted that Senator Mellandarry McCarthy is very likely going to
18:23
Speaker 6: be promoted to take on that Indigenous Affairs portfolio. But
18:27
Speaker 6: some of the other left wing promotions. People are talking
18:30
Speaker 6: about assistant ministers like Jed Carney getting promoted. But then
18:35
Speaker 6: there are also a range of left wing backbenches like
18:40
Speaker 6: Julian Hill, Josh Wilson. The people are talking about promotions
18:43
Speaker 6: for them too. I think the key thing for Anthony Albanize.
18:46
Speaker 6: Is he going to do a very limited reshuffle where
18:49
Speaker 6: he does as little change as possible, or is he
18:52
Speaker 6: going to take this as an opportunity to do a
18:55
Speaker 6: broader reset. And I think there is a compelling case
18:59
Speaker 6: to do were broader reset. I think Immigration and Home
19:02
Speaker 6: Affairs should be swapped up. I think new people should
19:07
Speaker 6: go into those portfolios. I think there's a case too
19:09
Speaker 6: for someone to replace Julie Collins in housing. Do I
19:13
Speaker 6: think Anthony Albanezi is actually going to take those big
19:16
Speaker 6: steps and dump Andrew Giles to the backbench. I think
19:22
Speaker 6: it's very unlikely.
19:25
Speaker 2: And of course the other thing that he'll be considering
19:28
Speaker 2: is the faction. So you know, even though there might
19:30
Speaker 2: be someone very talented like Andrew Charlton who comes on
19:33
Speaker 2: this show regularly. I mean he ran the economic strategy
19:37
Speaker 2: for Kevin rud during the global financial crisis, there is
19:41
Speaker 2: no one potentially more experienced who should be entering the ministry.
19:46
Speaker 2: Yet he won't because he is a white male from
19:49
Speaker 2: the right faction. So all of these considerations when you're
19:53
Speaker 2: in the Labor Party at least will be balanced up.
19:56
Speaker 2: All right, Matt canavanro Kelly, thank you both very much
19:59
Speaker 2: for your time. Now, after the break, we'll go live
20:01
Speaker 2: to the US after the capital was stormed by Hamas supporters,
20:05
Speaker 2: plus a shocking new detail from the FBI about Trump's
20:09
Speaker 2: would be assassin. All of that coming up, welcome back.
20:16
Speaker 9: Well.
20:16
Speaker 2: Four days after dropping out of the presidential race, Joe
20:20
Speaker 2: Biden finally fronted the nation and Well, his intention was
20:24
Speaker 2: to explain his decision, but it didn't quite end up
20:27
Speaker 2: like that. He mumbled and bumbled his way through a
20:29
Speaker 2: twelve minute speech.
20:31
Speaker 3: I've come so far since my inauguration on that day,
20:36
Speaker 3: I told you as I stood in the winter, we're
20:39
Speaker 3: stood in a winter of peril and winter possibilities. When
20:44
Speaker 3: Ben Franklin was asked as he emerged from the convention,
20:51
Speaker 3: going on in this moment, we can see those we
20:55
Speaker 3: disagree with not as enemies, but as fellow Americans.
21:00
Speaker 2: All Right, for more on this, let's bring in the
21:02
Speaker 2: former acting United States Attorney General, Matthew Whittaker. Matthew, thank
21:06
Speaker 2: you very much for your time. Look, isn't it ironic
21:09
Speaker 2: that the Democratic National Committee has finalized a plan to
21:13
Speaker 2: nominate Kamala Harris before the convention, effectively to prevent any
21:18
Speaker 2: other contenders or any debate, the first time the Democrats
21:23
Speaker 2: have used such a process. And yet we heard Joe
21:25
Speaker 2: Biden speak about democracy over and over and over again.
21:29
Speaker 2: It was the main word he used in his speech, Well,
21:34
Speaker 2: good to.
21:34
Speaker 10: Be with you in greetings from the United States. You know,
21:37
Speaker 10: we are in a kind of silly moment in American history.
21:43
Speaker 10: It is both you know, not real or not serious.
21:47
Speaker 10: What's happening with the Democrat Party where they allegedly, you know,
21:51
Speaker 10: are fighting for democracy, but are now going to run
21:55
Speaker 10: the most democratic nomination process ever history of major parties.
22:02
Speaker 10: And at the same time, we're never more insecure from
22:06
Speaker 10: the threats that the United States faces. And you know,
22:09
Speaker 10: you couple all that together and I think there's a
22:12
Speaker 10: lot of sincere concern of whether or not Joe Biden
22:16
Speaker 10: is really in charge and whether he is up to
22:18
Speaker 10: doing the job. And it's sad to say, you know,
22:21
Speaker 10: to watch that speech that he gave last night is
22:25
Speaker 10: just surreal. He's having a very hard time articulating himself.
22:30
Speaker 10: And yet, you know, for the last many months and
22:33
Speaker 10: quite frankly many years, the left in the United States
22:36
Speaker 10: has been telling us that, you know, he runs circles
22:40
Speaker 10: around everybody, and he's sharp as attack.
22:43
Speaker 2: Indeed, But in the end that only worked against the
22:46
Speaker 2: interests because they could have elected the best possible candidate
22:50
Speaker 2: if they'd gone through the proper process months ago. Instead,
22:54
Speaker 2: they're at this late stage and they only have Kamala Harris,
22:58
Speaker 2: who may be the best candidate, but hasn't been put
23:00
Speaker 2: through the ringer and been able to go through those
23:03
Speaker 2: interrogations and the debates against others. I agree with you. You
23:07
Speaker 2: got the sense that he was struggling to read that
23:09
Speaker 2: speech clearly. But what about the Republicans who are saying
23:13
Speaker 2: he should now step down as president? But you know,
23:16
Speaker 2: should they really be calling for that, because that would
23:19
Speaker 2: truly give Kamala the best chance of beating Donald trumpet
23:23
Speaker 2: if she were the president.
23:24
Speaker 5: Now, Yeah, I.
23:26
Speaker 10: Think on the one hand, it would elevate her and
23:29
Speaker 10: make her have more of a spotlight. But at the
23:34
Speaker 10: same time, I think those of us that have watched
23:37
Speaker 10: her over the last really five or six years know
23:40
Speaker 10: that she has some limitations, whether that's her policies better ultraliberal,
23:46
Speaker 10: or whether that's her personality. You know, it's it's hard
23:49
Speaker 10: to find anybody that actually is a fan or that
23:53
Speaker 10: likes the Vice president. You know, it is very clear
23:55
Speaker 10: to me that as the American people get to know her,
23:58
Speaker 10: they're going to have more questions than answers. And you know,
24:02
Speaker 10: they've done a terrible time of launching her right now.
24:05
Speaker 10: You know, she's being outspent really almost sixty to one
24:10
Speaker 10: on advertising in swing states.
24:12
Speaker 1: And you know she's doing well.
24:14
Speaker 2: At fundraising though. She just raised one hundred million dollars
24:17
Speaker 2: since someday. I mean that's extraordinary.
24:20
Speaker 10: Yeah, but this is going to be a billion dollars
24:23
Speaker 10: plus on both sides. You know, last time Republicans in
24:27
Speaker 10: twenty twenty were I'd spent eight billion to two billion
24:30
Speaker 10: if you've had it all up. So there's a lot
24:32
Speaker 10: of money slashing around politics in the United States.
24:34
Speaker 1: But you're right.
24:35
Speaker 10: I mean, she'll be a powerful fundraiser, but that may
24:37
Speaker 10: not be able to make up for her personal limitations.
24:40
Speaker 1: Yeah.
24:40
Speaker 2: All right, Well, let's look at the revelations from FBI
24:42
Speaker 2: Director Christopher Ray today, and it was revealed that Thomas
24:46
Speaker 2: Matthew Crooks, that of course, was the gunman who tried
24:49
Speaker 2: to kill Trump. Will he researched the jfk assassination a
24:53
Speaker 2: week before he tried to kill Trump. We now know
24:58
Speaker 2: that he typed into Google. Half our away was Oswald
25:01
Speaker 2: from Kennedy. He was also flying a drone for eleven
25:05
Speaker 2: whole minutes, eleven minutes of a drone flying in the
25:08
Speaker 2: air around where Trump was about to speak, right before
25:12
Speaker 2: the attempted assassination. What did you think of these revelations
25:16
Speaker 2: and Christopher Raise evidence today.
25:19
Speaker 10: Well, it was good to hear from Chris what they
25:23
Speaker 10: have learned so far. I think it was much better
25:26
Speaker 10: than these former Secret Service director who gave us no
25:30
Speaker 10: answers and really raised more questions. But at the same time,
25:34
Speaker 10: there are still too many questions. This was a massive failure.
25:38
Speaker 10: You know, we almost lost President Trump, whether by luck
25:42
Speaker 10: or some of us, like myself, believed revine providence. You know,
25:46
Speaker 10: he is alive, but there were too many single points
25:50
Speaker 10: of failure that have been revealed.
25:54
Speaker 1: And I also am concerned that a lot of what
25:56
Speaker 1: we learned.
25:57
Speaker 10: Is from leaks previously to director Raised testimony.
26:01
Speaker 1: And I worked with Chris.
26:02
Speaker 10: Ray both in the Bush administration and in the Trump administration,
26:06
Speaker 10: and I know him to be a street shooter. I
26:10
Speaker 10: think I wish he would be a little stronger leader
26:12
Speaker 10: at the FBI. But that being said, I think he did,
26:16
Speaker 10: you know, lay out what they know and where they're
26:19
Speaker 10: going with this investigation.
26:21
Speaker 2: His performance was definitely far more impressive than the head
26:25
Speaker 2: of the Secret Service, who obviously had to step down
26:27
Speaker 2: after hurt shocking performance. But no question, there needs to
26:31
Speaker 2: be a proper inquiry so we can find out how
26:33
Speaker 2: this happened. Now, just before you go, I want to
26:37
Speaker 2: ask you your view. The Secret Service has said or
26:39
Speaker 2: they've advised Trump's campaign to stop doing outdoor rallies. Now,
26:44
Speaker 2: Trump is famous for his outdoor rallies. He loves them,
26:47
Speaker 2: his fans love them. It's kind of his trademark. What
26:51
Speaker 2: do you think about this? I mean, they're admitting effectively
26:54
Speaker 2: that they can't properly guarantee his security.
26:58
Speaker 10: Yeah, you know, I've been to probably more rallies than
27:01
Speaker 10: I can count, having helped him win the Iowa Caucuses
27:04
Speaker 10: and having you know, been to so many of the
27:08
Speaker 10: outdoor rallies and the indoor rallies. And you're right, I mean,
27:11
Speaker 10: the president enjoys the outdoor rallies, but they obviously, you know,
27:15
Speaker 10: we learned our harder secure. But at the same time,
27:19
Speaker 10: I think you add it all up and until the
27:23
Speaker 10: Secret Service gets their act together, and until they learn
27:26
Speaker 10: these lessons that we should have learned when JFK was assassinated.
27:30
Speaker 10: I think you know that it is probably correct to
27:32
Speaker 10: do a few indoor rallies. The problem is that the
27:35
Speaker 10: rallies serve a couple purposes. One is to obviously get
27:38
Speaker 10: the Trump supporters in the base together. But at the
27:42
Speaker 10: same time, I think the other thing that it does
27:44
Speaker 10: is it shows force, and it shows a strength of
27:48
Speaker 10: the campaign and the grassroots that Donald Trump only can bring.
27:53
Speaker 2: All right, Matt wat Katt really appreciate your time this
27:57
Speaker 2: evening or early morning for you. Thank you so much.
27:59
Speaker 2: And Matt of course former acting Attorney General in the
28:02
Speaker 2: United States. Now, if the recent political shakeups in the
28:05
Speaker 2: White House weren't enough, today, as I said earlier in
28:08
Speaker 2: the show, we saw unprecedented levels of chaos in Washington.
28:13
Speaker 2: The American flag burned, her Musk supporters saying that her
28:18
Speaker 2: muss was coming to the US. This was just outrageous.
28:22
Speaker 2: And all of this was because Israeli Prime Minister Benjainette
28:26
Speaker 2: and Yaho delivered a powerful argument for Western support of
28:30
Speaker 2: Israel in Congress. Here's another part of what he had
28:34
Speaker 2: to say.
28:35
Speaker 4: It's a clash between barbarism and civilization. It's a clash
28:45
Speaker 4: between those who glorified death and those who sanctify life.
28:57
Speaker 4: For the forces of civilization to triumph, America and Israel
29:01
Speaker 4: must stand together.
29:07
Speaker 2: By the way, Elon Musk was sitting in the crowd
29:10
Speaker 2: in Congress watching that speech. He was a guest of Netanyahu's,
29:13
Speaker 2: so even more reason to like Elon Musk. Let's bring
29:17
Speaker 2: in now IRNC spokesperson Elizabeth Pipco, Elizabeth, welcome to the show. Look,
29:22
Speaker 2: during Netanyahu's address, we saw dozens of Democrats. Have seen
29:26
Speaker 2: reports that it was fifty. Other reports say eighty, but
29:29
Speaker 2: either way, a large number of Democrats actually walked out.
29:33
Speaker 2: I mean, this is meant to be a democracy. You
29:35
Speaker 2: don't have to like Nettunya who you can hate him,
29:38
Speaker 2: but surely they should at least show the respect of
29:40
Speaker 2: listening to what he has to say.
29:44
Speaker 5: I completely agree. I said it yesterday. Actually, unless the
29:47
Speaker 5: reports have changed. According to Axios yesterday, nearly half of
29:50
Speaker 5: elected Democrats that not show up for the speech, Like
29:53
Speaker 5: you said, they should just hear him out and listen
29:56
Speaker 5: to what he has to say. This is the democratically
29:59
Speaker 5: elected leader of one of our strongest and closest allies.
30:02
Speaker 2: It's also the.
30:03
Speaker 5: Leader of a country currently fighting for its survival unless
30:06
Speaker 5: excuse me, against a terrorist group. A terrorist group that is,
30:09
Speaker 5: like he mentioned last night, not just Israel's enemy but
30:11
Speaker 5: also our enemy here in the United States. Let's not
30:14
Speaker 5: forget there are also American hostages still locked up right now,
30:18
Speaker 5: still being held by this group. And he is fighting,
30:21
Speaker 5: just like we would hopefully be fighting, to release those hostages,
30:24
Speaker 5: to bring them home. And to not show up to
30:27
Speaker 5: his speech the shere disrespect from him and by the way,
30:30
Speaker 5: respect from him, but also from the Vice president. Let's
30:33
Speaker 5: not forget. This is a man who showed up knowing
30:36
Speaker 5: that nearly half of Democrats weren't going to be there,
30:38
Speaker 5: but not assuming that the vice president of the United
30:41
Speaker 5: States would not even show up, the person who's now
30:43
Speaker 5: the presumptive nominee running for president here. For the Democrat
30:46
Speaker 5: Party to not show up when Israel is in this
30:48
Speaker 5: war again, when Americans are still held hostage, I think
30:51
Speaker 5: was disgraceful. And you mentioned what was going on outside
30:53
Speaker 5: that might have been even worse than the lack of
30:55
Speaker 5: support inside. These are far left protesters burning the American flag,
31:00
Speaker 5: as a leader of another country stands and applauds those
31:03
Speaker 5: that support and stand for our flag inside. So I
31:06
Speaker 5: think the contrast could not be more evident. And I
31:09
Speaker 5: truly am just saddened as a proud American for what
31:11
Speaker 5: I start happening yesterday.
31:13
Speaker 2: And you know what, it's not just that it was
31:14
Speaker 2: disrespectful to Neeta Yaoho. He's a politician, he can take it.
31:18
Speaker 2: But Noah Agamani was there. She was She became one
31:22
Speaker 2: of the most famous hostages around the world when she
31:25
Speaker 2: was kidnapped on October seven. You know, the beautiful young
31:27
Speaker 2: girl on the back of a motorcycle, kidnapped by her musk,
31:31
Speaker 2: rescued only recently in a risky and daring mission by
31:35
Speaker 2: Israel which cost one Israeli soldier their life. She was rescued.
31:39
Speaker 2: She was there today watching Netanyahu's address. How would she
31:43
Speaker 2: have felt to arrive in the Capitol and see all
31:45
Speaker 2: these people saying her muss is coming and supporting her muscle.
31:48
Speaker 2: The trauma, the heartlessness, it's just shocking. And now I
31:53
Speaker 2: want to turn to your role as a spokesperson for
31:55
Speaker 2: the Republican Party. How do you think Donald Trump, your party,
32:00
Speaker 2: the Republicans are going to have to shift their messaging
32:03
Speaker 2: now to take on Kamala Harrison. Are you more worried
32:07
Speaker 2: about her winning than you were Joe Biden.
32:11
Speaker 1: So it's a fair question.
32:12
Speaker 5: It's what a lot of people are discussing right now,
32:14
Speaker 5: and I think for us, the strategy remains the same. Look,
32:18
Speaker 5: we can't deny the fact that Kamala Harris was on
32:21
Speaker 5: this ticket right with Joe Biden. She was in this
32:23
Speaker 5: administration with Joe Biden the entire time. She owns the
32:26
Speaker 5: failures of this administration. She owns everything that the American
32:29
Speaker 5: people are feeling right now, and she owns the fact
32:32
Speaker 5: that we still don't know how Joe Biden is doing.
32:35
Speaker 5: We still don't know how long he has been in
32:38
Speaker 5: this decline. We still don't know what happened at that
32:40
Speaker 5: last debate, We don't know what people around him knew,
32:43
Speaker 5: including Kamala Harris, And she has to own all of
32:45
Speaker 5: that because the American people deserve some kind of answers.
32:48
Speaker 5: So I think for us, it's about just being transparent here,
32:51
Speaker 5: being honest. Everybody knows everything they need to know about
32:54
Speaker 5: Donald Trump and where he stands on every single issue.
32:56
Speaker 5: They've known for a while that he was going to
32:58
Speaker 5: be the nominee as well. And for us, it's about
33:00
Speaker 5: going against not the individual that is Kamala Harris, but
33:03
Speaker 5: the policies of this administration, the policies of the left,
33:06
Speaker 5: and the policies that the majority of Americans agree right
33:09
Speaker 5: now are just not working for them.
33:11
Speaker 2: But what is this answer? You more worried about taking
33:14
Speaker 2: her on than Joe Biden.
33:16
Speaker 5: We're certainly not more worried, but it's it's you know,
33:19
Speaker 5: it's an interesting time in American politics right We don't
33:22
Speaker 5: even know yet if she is one hundred percent going
33:24
Speaker 5: to be the candidate. We certainly don't know who her
33:27
Speaker 5: vice president is going to be. And I think three
33:29
Speaker 5: months out from an election to kind of know that
33:31
Speaker 5: this is what's happening, it's weird for us to know
33:34
Speaker 5: that that's where the American people are right now, not
33:36
Speaker 5: knowing what their choice is. It's weird for us not
33:38
Speaker 5: knowing who our competitors are. But against we are a
33:41
Speaker 5: party right now going against another party which we don't
33:43
Speaker 5: believe has the best interest of the American people in mind.
33:47
Speaker 5: That's all that we need to know and what was
33:48
Speaker 5: on display yesterday you and I just talked about is
33:50
Speaker 5: all the American people need to know. She was not
33:52
Speaker 5: there as American flags were being burned, and a speech
33:56
Speaker 5: of our ally, who's fighting a war technically with the
33:58
Speaker 5: American people right now to release our own hostages was
34:02
Speaker 5: completely ignored by her. And that's all people need to
34:04
Speaker 5: know about this candidate and this ticket.
34:06
Speaker 2: Yeah all right, Elizabeth Pipco, thank you very much for
34:09
Speaker 2: your time. Now still to come as Democrats walk out.
34:12
Speaker 2: Annette Yahoo, a mother whose young daughter is still being
34:16
Speaker 2: held hostage, will join me next. Plus what went down
34:19
Speaker 2: on Wall Street with the one trillion dollar wipeout? And
34:23
Speaker 2: could we be facing a recession here in Australia. All
34:26
Speaker 2: that and more coming up welcome back. Well, even more
34:33
Speaker 2: economists are concerned that we could potentially face a recession
34:36
Speaker 2: in Australia. We're going to come back to that in
34:38
Speaker 2: a moment, But first let's look back at two hundred
34:41
Speaker 2: and ninety two days ago when twenty three year old
34:45
Speaker 2: Romy Gonen was taken hostage by her mus at the
34:48
Speaker 2: Nova Music Festival. She was shot and captured along with
34:52
Speaker 2: three of her friends. Well, Romy's mother, Merav Leshem Gonen
34:56
Speaker 2: joins me live now. Thank you so much your time.
35:00
Speaker 2: Really appreciate it. I can can't even possibly imagine how
35:03
Speaker 2: difficult it is for you to speak about this topic.
35:06
Speaker 2: So we do appreciate your time. Look your daughter around
35:10
Speaker 2: you while she was trying to escape being taken by
35:14
Speaker 2: her mask on October seven. Can you tell us what
35:17
Speaker 2: she said to you in that phone call?
35:20
Speaker 9: Well, she was on the phone with us for four
35:23
Speaker 9: and a half hours on the phone or on what'sapp.
35:28
Speaker 9: But the last phone call started at ten fourteen, and
35:32
Speaker 9: when she was you know, I was picking up the
35:35
Speaker 9: phone and she said, Mom, hair was shot, I'm bleeding
35:38
Speaker 9: and I think I'm going to die, and that her
35:41
Speaker 9: friend is not speaking anymore. Her friend said in the
35:44
Speaker 9: front and that the driver was killed. And that's how
35:48
Speaker 9: the phone call started. Forty five minutes of which I'm
35:52
Speaker 9: trying to help, trying to see who can come and
35:54
Speaker 9: rescue my daughter, trying to talk to the army, to
35:58
Speaker 9: the police, trying to understand where she is, and hearing
36:03
Speaker 9: around her all the shooting and the fighting that were
36:06
Speaker 9: going on around the car. And finally I heard them,
36:13
Speaker 9: the terrorists coming to the car, opening the door trying
36:18
Speaker 9: to start the car.
36:21
Speaker 1: And speaking about.
36:23
Speaker 9: My daughter, saying she's alive, and then going to her
36:28
Speaker 9: side of the car and taking her out by her
36:32
Speaker 9: long beautiful hair and pulling her on the road, hurting
36:36
Speaker 9: her back, and when she was trying to look and
36:38
Speaker 9: see what is going on, she was punched in the
36:41
Speaker 9: face and then the phone was hang out.
36:46
Speaker 2: And merav that was the last time you spoke to
36:49
Speaker 2: your daughter that phone call.
36:51
Speaker 9: Yes, yes, you have to understand. Being held by Chamas
36:55
Speaker 9: is not a prison. This is not prison.
36:58
Speaker 1: This is.
37:00
Speaker 9: Pere hatred, pure evil terrorists that holding my daughter and
37:06
Speaker 9: other women and men underground in tunnels, no phone call,
37:13
Speaker 9: nobody visits them, no doctor, no nothing. My daughter is
37:17
Speaker 9: there underground for two hundred and twenty and ninety three
37:22
Speaker 9: days already, and I expect the world to shout to
37:27
Speaker 9: say something. Twelve women are still alive there and some
37:32
Speaker 9: of the men are also alive.
37:35
Speaker 2: Well used to say still alive. And we absolutely pray
37:38
Speaker 2: with everything that your daughter is still alive. What have
37:43
Speaker 2: you got news of her? Have you what makes you
37:46
Speaker 2: believe that she is still holding on?
37:50
Speaker 9: First time a mother, I know she's alive. This is nowhere,
37:53
Speaker 9: There is nowhere you mean, and I'm sure about mother's instinct, yes,
38:00
Speaker 9: but this is not just the instinct. We know from
38:03
Speaker 9: the women that came back on the last deal that
38:06
Speaker 9: they were with her in the tunnels. I know she
38:10
Speaker 9: was alive. I know she is alive, and I know
38:12
Speaker 9: we have to bring her back as soon as possible.
38:15
Speaker 9: Just yesterday we got the message about two of the
38:21
Speaker 9: men that were murdered in Commas, and and five bodies
38:26
Speaker 9: were returned yesterday from people who were murdered also by
38:30
Speaker 9: the Commas. This is an impossible state. These are, you know, civilians.
38:36
Speaker 9: My daughter is almost one four, she will be in
38:39
Speaker 9: August twenty four. This is something unimaginable.
38:44
Speaker 2: It truly is very passionable. I don't know how you
38:47
Speaker 2: bear it every single day for the past nine and
38:49
Speaker 2: a half months. I can't We can't even begin to
38:52
Speaker 2: imagine what your nights are like, how you possibly sleep
38:56
Speaker 2: and survive. You've said that one of your biggest concerns
39:00
Speaker 2: for Romi is any sexual assault that she might be
39:04
Speaker 2: facing at the hands of these terrorists, and and tragically,
39:08
Speaker 2: we know that rape is something that harmas uses as
39:12
Speaker 2: a as a taller weapon of war. I understand you
39:16
Speaker 2: spoke to United Nations officials recently, Is this something that
39:20
Speaker 2: you raised with them.
39:23
Speaker 9: I was in the last Committee of Human Rights, and
39:29
Speaker 9: everything I heard them was everything except human rights, at
39:34
Speaker 9: least a human rights of Jewish people, because they were
39:39
Speaker 9: talking about what is happening to the women in prison
39:43
Speaker 9: as merely a parade, which was they were shouted at
39:48
Speaker 9: and that's all. But we know we heard Amitsusana. Amitsusana
39:52
Speaker 9: already said she has a very long testimony of what
39:57
Speaker 9: happened to her in Gaza, and we need the world
40:00
Speaker 9: to understand Hamas is raping women. I don't know which
40:05
Speaker 9: of the hostages is being Each and every one of
40:09
Speaker 9: them is actually harassed in some way, even if it
40:14
Speaker 9: is only a man that is looking at you twenty
40:17
Speaker 9: four hours a day, seven days a week, every minute.
40:20
Speaker 9: Even when you go to the bathroom, if there is
40:23
Speaker 9: a bathroom, it's not exactly a bathroom in the tunnels.
40:26
Speaker 9: I don't know if you saw the pictures, of course,
40:28
Speaker 9: So the human rights of the UN, I guess they
40:31
Speaker 9: don't see Jewish women as something that deserves to have
40:37
Speaker 9: a privaty or you know, I don't have words to say.
40:43
Speaker 9: I was so angry when I visited the committee and
40:47
Speaker 9: I had a speech of five minutes of which I exclaimed,
40:51
Speaker 9: the world Hamas is pure evil. It's very nice to
40:55
Speaker 9: stay very nice things in a cozy, warm or cold
41:00
Speaker 9: place where you are protected. But I want to see
41:03
Speaker 9: each and every one of this committee guys coming to
41:06
Speaker 9: gus and trying to say the same.
41:08
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree with you. It's absolutely disgusting that all
41:11
Speaker 2: the women's groups and all these so called feminists haven't
41:14
Speaker 2: been fighting for the return of the hostages. Mirav. All
41:18
Speaker 2: of our hearts go out to you. We pray for
41:21
Speaker 2: the day that you are able to hold your little
41:24
Speaker 2: girl in your arms again. Look, we on build the same.
41:30
Speaker 2: It's so hard, and we just have to applaud you
41:32
Speaker 2: on your courage for doing media interviews like this one.
41:35
Speaker 2: We can't even imagine how hard it is for you
41:37
Speaker 2: to speak out, but you're doing it. And when your
41:39
Speaker 2: daughter comes home, because we believe she will come home
41:42
Speaker 2: when she is, I'm sure she'll be so proud of
41:44
Speaker 2: your courage. So Merav, thank you very.
41:46
Speaker 9: Much, Thank you, thank you very much to you too.
41:50
Speaker 2: Now, after the break, more concerns or recession could be
41:53
Speaker 2: on the cards. While in the US, a one trillion
41:56
Speaker 2: dollar Wall Street wipe out, plus Fadam a payman's audacity
42:00
Speaker 2: and demanding Albanezi give her even more resources after she'd
42:04
Speaker 2: left the labor fault. My panel, welcome back. Well, let's
42:11
Speaker 2: bring in tonight's panel now commentator Jason Morrison, who happens
42:14
Speaker 2: to be in the Fox News studio in New York,
42:17
Speaker 2: and PR Council Managing Director Christy McSweeney. Good to see
42:21
Speaker 2: you both, Jason, Christy, Let's have a look at the
42:24
Speaker 2: economy because we're hearing this report from Deloit Access Economics
42:30
Speaker 2: that warns another rate hike, and we are expecting there
42:34
Speaker 2: to be at least one, potentially two, and Warren Hogan
42:37
Speaker 2: last night said that even could be three rate hikes
42:40
Speaker 2: this year. I doubt that'll happen, but we are expecting
42:43
Speaker 2: rate hikes this year, and Deloitte economists are saying that
42:46
Speaker 2: this actually could push us over into a recession. So Christy,
42:52
Speaker 2: this is a very fine line that the alban Ezy government,
42:55
Speaker 2: that the Treasurer of Jim Chalmers needs to walk here
42:58
Speaker 2: to try and you know, take the pressure off inflation
43:02
Speaker 2: and the RBA as well, of course without falling into recession.
43:09
Speaker 11: The government has two options here, waite and hope and
43:12
Speaker 11: pray that the RBI gives them some reprieve between the
43:18
Speaker 11: end of this year and the full term of March
43:20
Speaker 11: next year for the election, or hope, which I don't
43:24
Speaker 11: think is possible, that their own policies around setting white
43:29
Speaker 11: hikes for certain union cohorts and working with the AC
43:33
Speaker 11: to you to deliver wage increases, is going to reset
43:37
Speaker 11: the economy and increase productivity.
43:40
Speaker 2: It won't.
43:42
Speaker 11: Like all the economists that you mentioned suggesting that we
43:45
Speaker 11: will have another right hike, there is not an economist
43:49
Speaker 11: in Australia who's suggesting that any of the libor's industrial
43:53
Speaker 11: relations agenda is going to increase productivity and do something
43:59
Speaker 11: to off set the cost of living and the spiraling
44:04
Speaker 11: cost of goods and consumer household spending that we are
44:09
Speaker 11: in in Australia. So I think we'll go full term
44:11
Speaker 11: to the election with one or possibly two rate hikes
44:15
Speaker 11: under our belt.
44:16
Speaker 2: Well, they will certainly be hoping that there's a cut
44:19
Speaker 2: at least in the first quarter of next year. But Jason, meanwhile,
44:23
Speaker 2: Wall Street had its worst day in almost two years.
44:26
Speaker 2: Trillion dollars wiped off stocks. Tesla is one of the
44:29
Speaker 2: stocks that had a sharp fall. What else can you
44:32
Speaker 2: tell us? You're in New York, Jason, what else is
44:35
Speaker 2: to blame for this Wall Street result?
44:39
Speaker 8: I can tell you I'm as broke today as I
44:40
Speaker 8: was yesterday. So for a personal level, like everyone, it
44:44
Speaker 8: doesn't really matter where these graphs go. It just sort
44:46
Speaker 8: of feels like it's the same story. All I can
44:48
Speaker 8: tell you here is that everyone is saying, you know, shock, horror,
44:51
Speaker 8: big dip. But the real story is you look at
44:54
Speaker 8: the long term and for the last twelve months, it's
44:57
Speaker 8: been up and up and up and up and up
44:58
Speaker 8: and up, and it had a little bit of a
45:00
Speaker 8: down yesterday. And to give you some context there's always
45:03
Speaker 8: worth getting context, is that yesterday's down took us back
45:07
Speaker 8: about a week and a half of the ups. So
45:09
Speaker 8: for all the shock and horror of these statistics, the
45:12
Speaker 8: truth is it's been good earnings for quite a bit
45:14
Speaker 8: of time.
45:15
Speaker 1: It's this parallel universe.
45:16
Speaker 8: It's like the Australian share market. It's doing well, yet
45:20
Speaker 8: all of us don't feel like we're doing well. And
45:23
Speaker 8: I guess in a time when you know, they keep
45:25
Speaker 8: telling us it's about constraint and restraint, and the same
45:28
Speaker 8: messages over in the United States. At the moment, I
45:31
Speaker 8: got to say, I have never seen things more expensive here,
45:34
Speaker 8: and the same way I've never felt it as expensive
45:36
Speaker 8: it is back home. We've got very similar kind of
45:39
Speaker 8: problems at the moment with big taxing governments that just
45:42
Speaker 8: seem to find ways to push up our prices through
45:45
Speaker 8: stupid decisions. And if it's not in Australia electricity bills,
45:49
Speaker 8: I was stunned to see how much they pay for
45:50
Speaker 8: electricity in the US metrol excise and Australia is about
45:54
Speaker 8: to go up soon. So it's all sort of flowing
45:56
Speaker 8: into each other. But that's the real story of the
45:58
Speaker 8: Wall Street drop. It's just a balance out.
46:01
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, let's quickly have a look at farmer labor
46:04
Speaker 2: Senator Fatima payment. She's made a big request of Albaneze,
46:07
Speaker 2: even though she walked out on him, crossed the floor.
46:10
Speaker 2: She's now asking for extra staff, according to this story
46:13
Speaker 2: in The Nightly, as she embarks on a twelve day
46:16
Speaker 2: listening tour of regional w A town's Christy. I'm not
46:20
Speaker 2: sure this is a word she'd use, but this is
46:22
Speaker 2: some hutzpat from Fatima payment.
46:26
Speaker 11: Absolutely, I agree with you. I'm not sure if some
46:28
Speaker 11: word she would use either, she would probably use it
46:31
Speaker 11: as entitlement. First of all, I don't think fatim payment
46:35
Speaker 11: has ever been to regional Western Australia. I'm a regional
46:38
Speaker 11: Western Australian. There's nobody there that's ever heard of her.
46:42
Speaker 11: I'm not entirely sure why she wants to go on
46:44
Speaker 11: a tour of regional Western Australia. Second of all, I
46:49
Speaker 11: campaigned at that election, that same election of which Senator
46:53
Speaker 11: Payment was elected at, not one single constituent or one
46:59
Speaker 11: single lie raised support for Palestine with me as an
47:04
Speaker 11: issue that's highly relevant to the constituency overall of Western
47:09
Speaker 11: Australia and wymps on both sides of Parliament tell me
47:14
Speaker 11: there's not a significant volume of correspondence coming into the office.
47:19
Speaker 11: That's interesting because the way that you know, some labor
47:23
Speaker 11: politicians are very worried about it in marginal seats in
47:26
Speaker 11: Sydney and Melbourne.
47:27
Speaker 8: Jason, Yeah, this is the diversity pick gone wrong. And
47:33
Speaker 8: you know one of the stories that goes with the
47:35
Speaker 8: diversity movement is take take take guess what she's doing.
47:40
Speaker 8: Anyone shocked really.
47:42
Speaker 2: Mm, well, well you can ask for more resources, but
47:46
Speaker 2: albin Eezy can easily say no. But I think the
47:49
Speaker 2: point I was trying to get at is that are
47:51
Speaker 2: these independent Muslim candidates who are considering I mean, they
47:54
Speaker 2: seem like the groupings in a bit of disarray at
47:57
Speaker 2: the moment, but they are threatening to run against Labor politicians,
48:00
Speaker 2: and there are Labor politicians in marginal seats in Western
48:04
Speaker 2: Sydney and in Melbourne where this could be a real
48:07
Speaker 2: issue in this domestic politics. It is part of the
48:10
Speaker 2: reason that many think, including me, that Foreign Minister Pennywong,
48:15
Speaker 2: you know, did what she did today, that why she
48:18
Speaker 2: is being so publicly critical of Israel. But look the
48:21
Speaker 2: Labor Party national conference, there's going to be a lot
48:24
Speaker 2: of pro Palestinian protesters. They're already security concerns, so this
48:27
Speaker 2: is going to be a big issue to come. Jason Morrison,
48:30
Speaker 2: Christy McSweeney, thank you both very much for your time,
48:33
Speaker 2: and that's it for me this week. I'll see you
48:35
Speaker 2: Monday at eight o'clock and up now for Myriy life.
