  Speaker 2: Good evening and welcome to the Rita Panekey Show. Coming
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: up tonight, Pauline Hanson's fiery clash with SBS. Nick Kata
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: will join me to cover that. In the day's top headlines,
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: Chris Bowen heads to Denmark for another climate conference. Professor
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: and plymouse and thoughts on that. Mi Horowitz will have
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: the latest from the US, including the democrats descent into violence.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: Michelle Obama continues her Australian to our and you won't
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: believe how much she.
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: Is charging for tickets.
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: Kinsey Schofield will have that and the latest entertainment news
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: and Left He's Losing It features this charming young lass
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: making an important contribution.
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: To public debate.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: Well, but first, desperate times call for desperate measures, and
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: it doesn't get much more desperate than wheeling out labor
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: luminary poor Keating. Yes, that's what the Albeneasy government has
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: sung to. The man who gave Australia eighteen percent interest
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: rates and the recession we had to have has come
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: out in support of labour's tax hikes.
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: According to Paul Keykeating, the blame.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: All lies with the Howard era capital gains tax discount,
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: which he says cause investors to flood the property market
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: and make housing unaffordable. He also said John Howard and
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: Petti Costella thought they could do their use cast selling
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: and dodgy accounting mates of favor by jacking a fifty
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: percent discount onto the taxation of capital profits, destroying the
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: inflation discounting system I had set up to tax the
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: real gain. Only joining me now is Menzie's Research Center
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: senior fellow Nick Cata Nick Poor.
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: Keating also has hit out.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: At investors as they have feasted on lightly tax capital
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: gains for twenty five years.
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: Feasted.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: I think your point's exactly right, Reeta. I mean, what next?
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: It just shows the desperation of the government that it's
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: budgeted in such a mess. What will they do after this?
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: You know, wheel out Ben Shiffley from beyond the grave
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: to tell us why we should nationalize the banks or something. Look,
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: it's been a little bit sad, I think for those
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: of us who lived through that era and saw some
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: of the really good reforms. Not everything Keating was did
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: was good by a long way, but he did some
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: really positive stuff as Howard did, which allowed people to
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: actually get richer. Ordinary people could buy shares, they could
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: invest in property, they could invest, of course in superannuation.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: Paul Keating's great contribution. And that means that today, you know,
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: there are hundreds of thousands of people who are able
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: to retire, who are looking either retired or going into retirement,
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: being able to fund themselves. They're not having to use
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: the public pension. Public pension is not a lot of money,
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: and they want to do better than that. And what's more,
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: they're not tapping future taxpayers forever and ever by drawing
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: on the pension. So I think Paul Keating has kind
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: of lost his mojo here just a little bit.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: Oh yes, I know, tacking investors for feasting. They were
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: still paying plenty of tax on capital gains, not to
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: mention that they were using after tax income to invest.
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: So and like you said, they're saving taxpayers from supporting
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: them in retirement. And this is the thanks they get
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: getting attacked by a has been prime minister. Now let's
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: have a listen to Jim Chalmers, the treasurer here struggling
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: to answer a simple question about his tax hikes. Watch
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: him get a little bit stroppy when the interviewer tries
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: to understand, tries to make sense of his warped logic.
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: You just said that the current system undercompensates.
• 4:01
  Speaker 5: About twenty year period.
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and you're trying to fix that by taxing shares
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: at a higher rate.
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: Well, not necessarily higher. It depends how long they hold
• 4:09
  Speaker 5: the shares, what kind of return they're getting, what their
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: marginal tax rate.
• 4:12
  Speaker 6: But again for the vast majority, well they will be
• 4:15
  Speaker 6: taxed at a higher rate.
• 4:16
  Speaker 5: Well, it remains to be seen. I mean, we can
• 4:19
  Speaker 5: only go on what we've seen mod on that. Yeah,
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: I'm explaining the modeling, which is in that twenty year period,
• 4:25
  Speaker 5: we saw that shares were under compensated and housing was
• 4:28
  Speaker 5: over compensated.
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: Previous twenty year period.
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: But in the future, we can't analyze the next twenty
• 4:34
  Speaker 5: years that haven't happened yet. We've analyzed a period of
• 4:36
  Speaker 5: time between the change being made.
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: I'm explaining the modeling. I didn't like his tone there.
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: He's trying to explain the modeling, which apparently doesn't really exist.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: Because you can't model the future, you can't analyze I'm
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: thoroughly confused, Nick.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: This is where Paul Keaton could have been to some help.
• 4:55
  Speaker 7: He could have.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: Said to Jim Chalmers, Look, Jim, you don't want to
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: end up as the next John Houston. You don't want
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: to be here having to argue try to tell people
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: how much GST will be put on birthday cakes and
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: whether it applies to the candles. You know you've lost
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: the argument when you've got to that point. And I
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: think this is where this government's at with this budget.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: It's completely out of their control. They've lost the narrative.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: They never had the narrative because it was a very
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: poor narrative. They've lost the credibility. They've certainly lost the
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: moral authority after blatantly lying about their policies before the
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: last election. Now best to give this away. I think
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: some of the wiser advisors columnists in the newspapers are saying, look,
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: just fix all this up. Clear the decks, apologize for
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: what you got wrong and move on. That's the only
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: way they can rescue this terrible budget.
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: Pauline Hanson sat down with SBS for a wide ranging
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: interview and it's clear the one Haitian leader is well
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: and truly fed up with leftist activist journalists listen to
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: how she responds to this question about neo Nazis from
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: sb's chief political correspondent, Anna Henderson.
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: Can I ask you about that Royal commission and about
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: some of my nation's support base there as well, because
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: there is a neo Nazi element of your support base.
• 6:15
  Speaker 4: How are you how are you.
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: Ensured that's rubbish?
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: Well, there are no Nazis who back you. They comment
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: on Facebook base, that's.
• 6:22
  Speaker 8: Got nothing to do with me, and that's got nothing
• 6:25
  Speaker 8: to do with One Nation.
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: So you won't see those fringe much ideologies coming in.
• 6:30
  Speaker 8: You don't try and make out that they're part of
• 6:32
  Speaker 8: one nation or part of our team or anything like
• 6:34
  Speaker 8: That's got nothing to do with it. So don't head
• 6:36
  Speaker 8: down that path with me. I'm sick and tired of
• 6:38
  Speaker 8: the media throwing this at me all the time.
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: I'm just saying there's supporters. I'm not saying that in
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: your party or part of your party machine.
• 6:45
  Speaker 8: There's supporters. And before One Nation came on, where would
• 6:49
  Speaker 8: they who did they support? Did you follow that up?
• 6:52
  Speaker 8: I don't know who was out there supporting me. I've
• 6:54
  Speaker 8: got people from all different cultural background, walks of life, ages,
• 6:59
  Speaker 8: you name it. Support one nation because they support my
• 7:01
  Speaker 8: policies what I stand for. So don't have a go
• 7:04
  Speaker 8: at me as if it's going to belittle or denigrade
• 7:09
  Speaker 8: my party what I stand for, because I may have
• 7:12
  Speaker 8: this fringe out there support, It's got nothing to do
• 7:15
  Speaker 8: with their fringe. They're out here, they're going to support someone, Nick.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: I wonder how much time Anna Henderson or her research
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: is spent looking at the comments section of labor posts
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: on social media or the Greens, because I can guarantee
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: you that they are lizzarded with virulently anti Semitic comments,
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: but you never hear their MPs being asked about that
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: element of their supporter base. It's always something that one
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: nation is attacked with.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he's a bit rich, isn't it for one of
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: the house channels for the far green left to be
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: talking about extremeist ideology from Pauline Hanson? You know, it
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: would have been nice to have a conversation Prince about
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: what is a woman? Let's see what the SPS is
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: house fur is on that. I suspect it's not the
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: same as yours and mine or Pauli and Hanson's. This
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: is the thing they get wrong and they shouldn't get
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: it wrong anymore because the opinion polls show it right.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: Pauline Hanson is polling very well indeed, and she's taking
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: the voters from both Labor and the Coalition, possibly in
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: different proportions, but they're coming from the left or the
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: nominal left and the nominal right. So where does that
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: put Paulie Hanson straight bang in the middle of Australian
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: politics and the Australian people. Whereas, of course the SBS
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: with its tiny, tiny audience. I mean not everything on
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: SBS is bad. I mean, I love the cycling, I
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: love the soccer, but maybe the Eurovision Song contest sometimes,
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: but everything else. You know, they shouldn't already be doing
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: this stuff. There's enough of this stuff around free on
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: available on Google. If that's what people want to watch,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: we shouldn't be putting taxpayers money into.
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: This, surely, Yeah, SPS I think flies under the radar.
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: There's so much focus on the ABC and the one
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: billion plus they get annually, but SBS gets hundreds of
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: millions of dollars in taxpayer funds and really they don't
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: fulfill their charter either, And like you said, so much
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: of that foreign language content which is what they initially
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: were providing Australians where you can get that readily online everywhere,
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: So you really don't need SBS just to be another
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: vehicle for hard left activism in this country. Now, I
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: when to ask about a column you wrote Nick earlier
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: in the week saying Angus Taylor has channeled Ronald Reagan
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: with his economic reform.
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: That's high praise.
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: Indeed, tell me what you see as similarities between Taylor's
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: politics and policies.
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: And one of the all time greats in Reagan.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: Well, he's cutting taxes. That's what Ronald Reagan did. Ronald Reagan,
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: first of all, Number one, came in and made big
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: cuts to tax rates in America because America was very
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: highly taxed at that stage. And crucially, in nineteen eighty five,
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: he indexed tax rates, exactly what Angus Taylor is going
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: to be doing, and he did it to starve the beast.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: I mean, if you index tax rates so that the
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: government can never raise taxes more than the level it's
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: actually raising above inflation, then you force government into deciding
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: priorities and deciding money that's being well spent, and you
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: pull back the size of government. Ronald Reagan did all that.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: But there's another side to it. And Angus Taylor, I
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: can tell you he's onto this. He's been having conversations
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: with his colleagues about what Ronald Reagan did for a
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: long time, long before he became leader. And the other
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: beautiful thing about this is not only do you cut
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: government down to size, but you put the money to
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: use in productive ways that grows the economy. I mean,
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: it's quite simple, isn't it. If you don't collect taxes,
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: if you don't give that money to the government to spend,
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: and you give it to ordinary people to spend, they're
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: going to spend in coffee shops, restaurants, local stores, and
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: those are things that actually grow the economy. Give the
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: money to the government and it's just going to tip
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: it down the sinc on things like poles and wires
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: and solo and all that waste of money that doesn't
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: actually do anything for the economy, just makes it worse.
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: It was Kerry Packer who had that line that you
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: don't give the government any extra money because they're not
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: doing a very good job of spending it, are they Now?
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: Anti Israel activists and academic Randa Abdel Fatar has been
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: long listed for Australia's most prestigious literary award. Her novel,
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: which is called Discipline. It's exploring concepts like truth telling
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: and self censorship nick very important. It has appeared alongside
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: nine others for the twenty twenty six Miles Franklin Literary Award.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: This is the same book that led to her inclusion
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: into the twenty twenty six Adelaide Writers' Festival, and we
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: all remember the controversy there and she was ultimately removed.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: What do you make of this? I haven't read the book.
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: I can't tell you if it deserves this praise. I'm
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: hoping you've done a little bit of reading.
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: What do you think of well?
• 12:10
  Speaker 7: I work.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: I'm usually very diligent on this show for doing my research.
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: And I did actually go on to Kindle to see
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: if I could download the book this morning and read it.
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: And then I look, sixteen dollars and fifty cents. No,
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: maybe not so I'm afraid I haven't read it either.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: Maybe it's a brilliant literary work. I suspect not. I
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: suspect that Miles Franklin, you know the author whose name
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: is given to this wonderful award. She'd be turning in
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: her grave right now at the very thought of it.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: I could be wrong on this. I mean, let's wait,
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: maybe somebody you will give me a copy of the
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: book and I'll read it happily. But the thing is
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: one suspects not you know. This is tokenism, isn't it.
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: These people get there like the Archibald Awards, where the
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: paintings are pretty ordinary these days, but you get there
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: because you tick the boxes for intersectionality or whatever, you know,
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: and she tacks a number of those boxes, so she
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: gets an enormous advantage when it comes to this where
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: because I've been a dismal failure in literary awards all
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: my life, well.
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: The Archibald still has incredible paintings entered. It's just that
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: the winner tends to be these days as something that
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: is a somewhat of a national embarrassment. And this year's
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: we now seem to go viral. I saw accounts overseas
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: sharing it and saying this is the best Australia can do.
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: Nick Hata always a pleasure, Thanks Vita, thanks for you.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: One Nation leader Pauline Hanson has announced a plan to
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: up end Australia's oil and gas sector by levying a
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: royalty on all production and taking direct public equity stakes
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: in new exploration and drilling projects. She announced the policy
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: in Adelaide earlier today. The plan would create a taxpayer
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: owned investment vehicle to boost exploration exchange for equity and
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: a share of returns.
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: One nation would also slash.
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: Red and green tape to turbocharge new exploration for oil
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: and gas. Joining me now is Professor in Primer, executive
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: director at Hancock Prospecting and a leading geologist and author
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: in What do you think of this plan? It's something
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: that even segments of the left have champion taxpayers owning
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: these assets.
• 14:29
  Speaker 9: Well, I think it's a very difficult one to market
• 14:32
  Speaker 9: amongst the oil and gas producers. Amongst the public, this
• 14:35
  Speaker 9: will gain support and Paul and Hanson's treading a very
• 14:39
  Speaker 9: difficult line between public support and support from the industry.
• 14:44
  Speaker 7: Now at today's.
• 14:46
  Speaker 9: Conference, which the Australian Energy Produces Conference in Adelaide, she
• 14:52
  Speaker 9: raised this policy. She had been consulting various people in
• 14:55
  Speaker 9: the industry about it.
• 14:57
  Speaker 7: I think there's a lot more.
• 14:58
  Speaker 9: Consultation to take place because there's some degree of objection,
• 15:02
  Speaker 9: But she's most adamant that these policies come from her party.
• 15:07
  Speaker 9: They don't come from any benefactors. This is very, very
• 15:10
  Speaker 9: much unlike the Labor Party, where you're basically having union
• 15:14
  Speaker 9: policies to create union jobs all over the place. She's
• 15:17
  Speaker 9: actually looking at policy that might benefit Australia. So I
• 15:22
  Speaker 9: think it's got a way to go yet. I think
• 15:24
  Speaker 9: to air it in front of a couple of thousand
• 15:28
  Speaker 9: people from the oil and gas industry was exactly the
• 15:31
  Speaker 9: right thing to do. And that's what she did today
• 15:33
  Speaker 9: in Adelaide at the Australian Energy Producers Conference, and with.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: That slashing of red tape, green tape, black tape.
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: Would that extend to.
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: The industry as a whole or would it only be
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: for projects where the taxpayer has a stake.
• 15:50
  Speaker 9: Well, unless it's done countrywide with all of the industries,
• 15:54
  Speaker 9: be they agriculture, be they fishing, be they mining, be
• 15:58
  Speaker 9: they oil, be they gas, then our country is a
• 16:02
  Speaker 9: very very risky place to invest in. You cannot invest
• 16:06
  Speaker 9: in a country where you might take decades to get
• 16:08
  Speaker 9: approvals by bureaucrats who've never taken a risk in their life,
• 16:12
  Speaker 9: who've never worked in the private sector who do not
• 16:15
  Speaker 9: understand the primary industries that they're meant to govern. So
• 16:20
  Speaker 9: in my view, she's been very consistent on this and
• 16:23
  Speaker 9: she has to be firmer. Get out of the way,
• 16:26
  Speaker 9: let people who know what they're doing do it, and
• 16:29
  Speaker 9: let all Australians benefit. But at this stage in the
• 16:32
  Speaker 9: history of Australia, it is almost impossible to invest in
• 16:36
  Speaker 9: this country, which is why many Australian companies are not
• 16:39
  Speaker 9: investing in Australia.
• 16:40
  Speaker 7: The risks are just too high now.
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: Energy Minister Chris Bowen has traveled to Denmark this week
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: in his first major foreign engagement as President of Negotiations
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: for this year's You and Climate Summit. He attended the
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: Copenhagen Climate Ministerial. Chris bow set up a Office of
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: the Presidency in his department in Australia's overall COP thirty
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: one commitments over the next three years are going to
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: cost around two hundred million dollars.
• 17:14
  Speaker 9: Well, I think mister Boone has a problem with his ego.
• 17:18
  Speaker 9: He's got a problem with his ideology and we should
• 17:22
  Speaker 9: understand that by changing the captain of the Titanic and
• 17:26
  Speaker 9: shifting around the deck chairs makes absolutely no different because we,
• 17:30
  Speaker 9: the poor, suffrom tax bar still pay for the Shenanigans.
• 17:35
  Speaker 9: Even the IPCC is walking away from its predictions of
• 17:39
  Speaker 9: the past. Most major countries are now saying, no, this
• 17:42
  Speaker 9: is costing too much.
• 17:44
  Speaker 7: Let's walk away from it.
• 17:45
  Speaker 9: We gave it a good go, we spent trillions of
• 17:48
  Speaker 9: taxpayers dollars and have got nothing for it. Let's go
• 17:51
  Speaker 9: back to reliable energy, which doesn't involve COP thirty one.
• 17:55
  Speaker 9: It involves coal, it involves gas, it involves oil, and
• 18:00
  Speaker 9: these countries that have walked away from their coal have
• 18:03
  Speaker 9: come back to it. Countries who walked away from uranium,
• 18:06
  Speaker 9: like Germany, have come back to It's about time that
• 18:09
  Speaker 9: Australia walked away from the ridiculous Net zero and COP
• 18:14
  Speaker 9: thirty one taxpayer funded jaunt and started to make electricity
• 18:19
  Speaker 9: cheap for the average punter it used to be until
• 18:23
  Speaker 9: we had net zero.
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: Well, we've had the coalition belatedly walk away from net zero,
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: but they are still signed up to Paris, so let's
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: see if they make some amends there now before you go,
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: workers at Snowy Hydro two point zero have recorded dozens
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: of detailed complaints about safety and faulty equipment are the
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: hydro scheme. The latest spat follows the Australian newspaper revealing
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: CFOMIU officials launched more than five hundred requests to enter
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: work sides around Snowy Hydro in the past year. In
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: we are being told this project could cost as much
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: as four to two billion to compete forty two billion.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: I'm old enough to remember Malcolm Turnbull telling us it
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: was going to cost around two billion.
• 19:14
  Speaker 9: Well, this is not a project to make electricity more
• 19:16
  Speaker 9: reliable or cheaper for Australians. This is a project to
• 19:20
  Speaker 9: enrich the CFMEU. This is a project where we have
• 19:25
  Speaker 9: taxpayers money and we can just take as much as
• 19:28
  Speaker 9: we like to put in a project. And we might
• 19:31
  Speaker 9: as well do what we did in the Great Depression
• 19:33
  Speaker 9: of the nineteen thirties. We might as well pay people
• 19:35
  Speaker 9: to dig holes and fill them in again, because that's
• 19:38
  Speaker 9: what we're doing with Snowy Hydro.
• 19:40
  Speaker 7: We have to remember we once.
• 19:42
  Speaker 9: Had cheap, reliable electricity. We have to remember that we
• 19:46
  Speaker 9: use a lot of energy for pump water uphill. We
• 19:48
  Speaker 9: also lose energy when it comes downhill due to friction
• 19:51
  Speaker 9: and other factors. And this is a net loss process.
• 19:54
  Speaker 9: A net loss in money which taxpayers are transferring to
• 19:58
  Speaker 9: the CFMEU is net loss in energy.
• 20:01
  Speaker 7: We have cheap, reliable energy in this country.
• 20:04
  Speaker 9: We have almost totally destroyed it, and snow hydro is
• 20:08
  Speaker 9: going to do nothing to the average taxpayer pocket. It
• 20:12
  Speaker 9: is an embarrassment and a construction project like this should
• 20:16
  Speaker 9: have been stopped years ago. Someone in the organization who
• 20:20
  Speaker 9: is looking after the spending of our money, the taxpayers money,
• 20:24
  Speaker 9: should have said, wait a minute, folks, is why over time,
• 20:26
  Speaker 9: why over budget?
• 20:28
  Speaker 7: Stop it?
• 20:29
  Speaker 9: No one has the guts to do it.
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: It was a crazy scheme when it was announced, and
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: I remember talking about this on Outsiders, thinking what we're
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: going to be sending water uphill to send it downhill?
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's what we're spending two billion dollars, two
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: billion dollars. It'd seem mad now forty two billion, Professor Plimer,
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: thank you so much for your time.
• 20:50
  Speaker 7: Good night, Thank you, Gilza KRMA.
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: Left is losing it past the Democrats to sent into violence.
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: Army Horowitz is up.
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: Now you're watching the Reader Pattery Show, and it's time
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: for Lefty his losing ad. Let's start with this lovely
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: young woman who likes so many progressives, has an important
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: point to make, and she makes it in such a
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: dignified manner.
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: This is inspiring.
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: Now to Manhattan, where Jason Bateman seems to have really
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: let himself go. Wait, apparently it's not Jason Bateman. I'm
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: not convinced staying in New York. Let's hear from its
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: socialist mes or and mandar. Here he rewrites Ronald Reagan's
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: famous quote, Zoran, you are exactly who Reagan was warning
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: us about.
• 22:08
  Speaker 10: I cannot help but think of the words of our
• 22:10
  Speaker 10: fortieth President, Ronald Reagan. He famously said the nine most
• 22:15
  Speaker 10: terrifying words in the English language, or I'm from the
• 22:18
  Speaker 10: government and I'm here to help. It's a good quote,
• 22:22
  Speaker 10: but I disagree. I think nine more terrifying words are
• 22:26
  Speaker 10: Actually I worked all day and can't feed my family.
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I can't afford to feed my kids because I
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: live in a socialist hellhole. Now I've got some good
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: news for you. She's back, everyone's favorite creepy podcaster with the.
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: Weird voice and even weirder smile.
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: She's back to push a hard left democrat on us.
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: But first, a little reminder of Jamie Kern Lima's most
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: notable work. And I think so many people also have
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: this question for you, as you know, Meghan, how are you?
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: And are you okay?
• 22:59
  Speaker 7: That's so I am?
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: I'm better than okay? Oh good god, that's so painful.
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: Well, Jamie is back, this time to try to normalize
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: a weirdo textan democrat James tal Rico.
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: It's hard to work out who you'd work harder to.
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: Avoid at a dinner party out of these two. But
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: let's give Jamie kurn Lima some credit for asking the
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: really tough.
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: Questions Are you single? Are you single?
• 23:25
  Speaker 7: So?
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: You have a girlfriend?
• 23:28
  Speaker 7: I do?
• 23:28
  Speaker 11: Many years I do, and she is She is my rock,
• 23:35
  Speaker 11: She is my best friend. I don't know if I
• 23:39
  Speaker 11: could have gotten through the last six months of this
• 23:41
  Speaker 11: crazy race if if she hadn't been by my side.
• 23:45
  Speaker 11: So yeah, thanks for asking about her.
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: Do you want kids? Wen Day? What do you?
• 23:51
  Speaker 12: What?
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: Can you share with us about it? Enough? Enough of that?
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: That's all I can stomach.
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: You know, if I were asking him questions, I wouldn't
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: be asking about the alleged girlfriend or his desire to
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: have children. I would ask what was he thinking when
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: he said trans kids were his most cherished thing after friends.
• 24:10
  Speaker 6: And family, something that you love that's not family or friends.
• 24:17
  Speaker 11: I love and just saying it's because it's on my mind.
• 24:20
  Speaker 11: The trans children who showed up yesterday at the state
• 24:25
  Speaker 11: Capitol to advocate for their humanity.
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: I told you, weirdo, total weirdo, and a weirdo who's
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: obsessed with his own whiteness and alleged masculinity.
• 24:36
  Speaker 11: For me, prophetic voices like Jesus have helped me reckon
• 24:39
  Speaker 11: with my own whiteness, my own masculinity, my own certainty.
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: It's a historic night, folks. It is the last episode
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: of the Colbert Report. The awful ratings and high cost
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: of the program I finally led to its downfall. But
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: we will always have these cherish memories.
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: I'm as shattered as you are.
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: Don't know how are we going to be picking up
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: the pieces of our life and just trying to carry
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: on without this sort of comedic genius in our lives.
• 25:26
  Speaker 7: Mister Trump, your presidency.
• 25:28
  Speaker 13: I love your presidency. I call it disgrace the nation.
• 25:32
  Speaker 13: You attract more skinheads than free rogaine. You have more
• 25:36
  Speaker 13: people marching against you than cancer.
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: You'll talk like.
• 25:39
  Speaker 13: A sign language guerrilla who got hit in the head.
• 25:41
  Speaker 13: In fact, the only thing your mouth is good for
• 25:43
  Speaker 13: is being Vladimir Putin's polster. Republicans can eat how about that?
• 25:50
  Speaker 12: I know what? You know what?
• 25:52
  Speaker 7: You know what?
• 25:53
  Speaker 13: In fact, let's be generous, they can eat a bag
• 25:55
  Speaker 13: of Now.
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: Donald Trump has had another resounding victory and eliminating his
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: opponents out of the GOP. This time it was Thomas
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: Massey in Kentucky. Here is Sann's Harry.
• 26:06
  Speaker 14: Enton in surprise at all because the bottom line is this,
• 26:09
  Speaker 14: Donald Trump is the general of the Republican Party and
• 26:12
  Speaker 14: the Republican primary voters are his soldiers. And if you
• 26:16
  Speaker 14: look at Thomas Massey you can see it very clearly.
• 26:18
  Speaker 14: You look in twenty twenty, twenty twenty two, twenty twenty four,
• 26:21
  Speaker 14: he was getting seventy five percent, upwards of eighty one
• 26:24
  Speaker 14: percent of the primary vote in twenty twenty and today
• 26:27
  Speaker 14: he gets less than fifty percent of the vote.
• 26:29
  Speaker 7: That's the story.
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: Let's bring in documentary filmmaker and commentator Army Horowitz. Army,
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: how can he go from eighty one percent of the
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: primary vote to losing? What happened in Kentucky?
• 26:43
  Speaker 15: Who's house? Trump's house?
• 26:46
  Speaker 8: Yeah?
• 26:48
  Speaker 16: Massy you just found out who runs a Republican party, buddy,
• 26:52
  Speaker 16: and it ain't you and your woolp great friend. Yeah,
• 26:55
  Speaker 16: that was the first kind of many fights for going
• 26:59
  Speaker 16: on be having between the woke right and and the
• 27:03
  Speaker 16: normal right. And yeah, look, this was an example of
• 27:07
  Speaker 16: him Massey being somebody who is just obstructionist completely in
• 27:12
  Speaker 16: all the way. And by the way, the obstructionism, that's
• 27:15
  Speaker 16: the good part of Thomas Massey. Okay, the fact that
• 27:19
  Speaker 16: he didn't I want to say good, I mean, I'm sorry,
• 27:21
  Speaker 16: not the worst part of Thomas Massey, I should say,
• 27:24
  Speaker 16: the fact that he went he went against every single
• 27:27
  Speaker 16: one of Trump's major initiatives. Okay, And and then again, uh,
• 27:33
  Speaker 16: you know when you say that that Donald Trump is
• 27:36
  Speaker 16: hiding child's sex trafficking ring, right, which is what he
• 27:40
  Speaker 16: did repeatedly over over again, that's not going to help
• 27:44
  Speaker 16: with getting the president and your good graces. But the
• 27:46
  Speaker 16: real problem with him is that. Okay, so the support
• 27:49
  Speaker 16: he was very impressive what Massey was able to do.
• 27:52
  Speaker 16: He was able to get support of the iradical left,
• 27:55
  Speaker 16: Assan Piker, the young Turks, and of course neo Nazi,
• 27:59
  Speaker 16: So that something right, I thought, nothing And yeah, I
• 28:04
  Speaker 16: say they're not saying. I mean that literally, Like Ryan
• 28:06
  Speaker 16: Matta was somebody who has a fundraiser a meeting with them,
• 28:10
  Speaker 16: and people said that was impressive. You met with Ryan Matta. Yeah,
• 28:13
  Speaker 16: because Ryan Matta is a Nazi. The man wore an
• 28:16
  Speaker 16: American Right sweatshirt with a picture of Thomas Massey. That's
• 28:22
  Speaker 16: who Massy really is. And this is the same guy
• 28:25
  Speaker 16: who talked about how amazing it was his wet dreams
• 28:28
  Speaker 16: about American soldiers being captured the Iranians.
• 28:32
  Speaker 15: So, yeah, Thomas Massey, good ridd is to you.
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: Now let's hear fromkin Jeffries making some strange comments about wanting.
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: To break the spirit of Trump supporters.
• 28:46
  Speaker 17: I guess part of how we as House Democrats view
• 28:48
  Speaker 17: this moment either MAGA extremists are going to break the
• 28:52
  Speaker 17: country or we're going to break them, and our goal
• 28:56
  Speaker 17: is to break them. We will defeat them. We have
• 29:00
  Speaker 17: to beat them electorally, and then we have to break
• 29:03
  Speaker 17: their spirit because of the extremism that's being unleased in
• 29:06
  Speaker 17: the American people. That's completely and totally unacceptable.
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: Amy, I thought we were lowering the temperature after the
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: third attempt on President Trump's.
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: Life, but there you have it.
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: Came Jeffries calling his opponents mega extremists and he wants
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: to break their spirits whatever that means.
• 29:26
  Speaker 16: Yeah, I mean I was surprised you a little bit,
• 29:28
  Speaker 16: and only in that I don't know.
• 29:29
  Speaker 15: I think I didn't.
• 29:30
  Speaker 16: Find those comments. Look, I guess I guess that it's
• 29:34
  Speaker 16: lowered the threshold of what makes me upset because of.
• 29:38
  Speaker 15: How bad people have gotten.
• 29:39
  Speaker 16: I guess I guess that's not me, not a new reader, okay,
• 29:42
  Speaker 16: just a personal kind of tale about where I am
• 29:45
  Speaker 16: in the world. But of course it speaks to this
• 29:49
  Speaker 16: the level of violence that of course is coming from
• 29:53
  Speaker 16: almost exclusively from the left.
• 29:55
  Speaker 18: Now.
• 29:55
  Speaker 16: I don't think, by the way, it's going to sit
• 29:56
  Speaker 16: in the left forever, but certainly for now we've seen
• 29:59
  Speaker 16: the all coming from the left. And again it goes
• 30:02
  Speaker 16: back to you know, I can't stop talking about Mangionian.
• 30:05
  Speaker 16: And that's really the kind of this weird breaking and
• 30:08
  Speaker 16: the changing of the Overton window for me. Okay, the
• 30:12
  Speaker 16: fact that he is getting his is a fan base,
• 30:15
  Speaker 16: and this permission structure, right, this consent structure that we've
• 30:18
  Speaker 16: seen across mainstream left right, not the extremist left. You
• 30:22
  Speaker 16: have people like Bill Burr and Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimble,
• 30:26
  Speaker 16: you know, making jokes about it in a supportive way.
• 30:28
  Speaker 16: You know, That's really what it comes down to. It
• 30:31
  Speaker 16: really moves the Overton window to say, look, you know
• 30:34
  Speaker 16: this idea of social murder, right, that's that's the thing
• 30:37
  Speaker 16: that this concept that Thom Piker talked about saying this
• 30:41
  Speaker 16: is a good thing. Well like, look, if you run
• 30:44
  Speaker 16: you know, a healthcare system in this case, and we
• 30:47
  Speaker 16: deem you responsible for people's debts, that you have a
• 30:51
  Speaker 16: responsibility to kill, not that it's just good you're responsible
• 30:55
  Speaker 16: to kill this person. Will just extrapolate that out. I mean,
• 30:58
  Speaker 16: who else are you responsible? Will kill police officers? They say,
• 31:01
  Speaker 16: policing at least the death of black people, right, Well,
• 31:06
  Speaker 16: then it's open season on police officers. Right, that's a
• 31:09
  Speaker 16: good you know, or you know you want to take
• 31:12
  Speaker 16: given further, white supremacy leads to the oppression and the
• 31:16
  Speaker 16: killing of all brown people, well anybody who was white.
• 31:19
  Speaker 16: I know this sounds crazy readA, but it's really not.
• 31:22
  Speaker 16: This is where things are moving to. And yeah, I
• 31:25
  Speaker 16: just don't like the rhetoric that people are using. And
• 31:29
  Speaker 16: again it reminds me, every single Trump with people trying
• 31:32
  Speaker 16: to sassinate Trump three times, Rita three times, and we've
• 31:38
  Speaker 16: almost forgotten about them. We don't talk about them at
• 31:40
  Speaker 16: all anymore. It's really it's horrific.
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: And that capacity for violence, that acceptance of violence. We
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: saw that with those three young women this week who
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: were the luisg fangirls, and they were just bold as
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: brasop me, not just justifying murder, but celebrating it, even
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: mocking the children of the murdered victim. And they have
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: feel no shame that they do that openly in front
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: of cameras.
• 32:13
  Speaker 16: They don't feel again, they don't feel shame because they
• 32:15
  Speaker 16: feel like they're allowed. They have a consent to do this,
• 32:18
  Speaker 16: from the main stream, from the media, from the comedians.
• 32:22
  Speaker 16: So yeah, no, of course they feel like they feel
• 32:24
  Speaker 16: no shame because they think they're doing a public good.
• 32:26
  Speaker 16: The man Gernistas the term for it.
• 32:28
  Speaker 15: Reader. It's totally absurd and.
• 32:31
  Speaker 16: Crazy, and this is leaving us down a really dark
• 32:35
  Speaker 16: dark hole.
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: Now let's go to La where Mayor Karen Bass was
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: asked whether non citizens should be allowed to vote.
• 32:43
  Speaker 19: I know that there are some cities that already do this,
• 32:46
  Speaker 19: but politics all that timing with Donald Trump in the
• 32:51
  Speaker 19: White House, Is this the right time for Los Angeles
• 32:54
  Speaker 19: to go down this path?
• 32:55
  Speaker 12: Well, I think we need to explore it.
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 32:57
  Speaker 12: I'm not seeing exactly what he's calling for. I have
• 33:00
  Speaker 12: a little familiarity of what happens in other cities, and
• 33:04
  Speaker 12: for example, some cities will allow people to vote in
• 33:08
  Speaker 12: like city council and school board elections.
• 33:10
  Speaker 3: She wants to explore it.
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: I mean, I can see this being the next battle
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: ground the left demanding non citizens have representation, they deserve representation.
• 33:22
  Speaker 16: The Party of Democracy, Rita, the Party of Democracy. I mean,
• 33:28
  Speaker 16: what do you mean you see it, Rita. I'm trying
• 33:30
  Speaker 16: to call you out. I mean, you see it going down.
• 33:32
  Speaker 16: It has already gone. We're down that road. You already
• 33:35
  Speaker 16: have gone down that road. In the California guberatory elections,
• 33:39
  Speaker 16: they ask people, hey, do you support non citizens voting?
• 33:42
  Speaker 15: And of course the left members.
• 33:43
  Speaker 16: Are running raise their hands saying yes, it's been done already, DC, Chicago,
• 33:48
  Speaker 16: San Franisco, New York, New York voted. New York vooted
• 33:52
  Speaker 16: city council votera have non citizens vote? Who struck down
• 33:54
  Speaker 16: at the Supreme Court? Why was this struck down rita
• 33:57
  Speaker 16: because it is a legal I don't know a crazy
• 34:01
  Speaker 16: one here. Look, this is nothing new. This is what
• 34:04
  Speaker 16: the Party of Democracy is all about. Look in the
• 34:07
  Speaker 16: one of the most underreported stories of the year, Hakeim
• 34:11
  Speaker 16: Jeffries on the Secret Call was talking about the Virginia
• 34:15
  Speaker 16: Supreme Court, right because they struck down their illegal, radical,
• 34:19
  Speaker 16: crazy jeremandream. And he said, yeah, why don't we Let's
• 34:23
  Speaker 16: here's what I wanna do you want to get rid
• 34:25
  Speaker 16: of Supreme Court? He did it, I gotta admit in
• 34:27
  Speaker 16: a very brilliant way by saying, let's lower the aide
• 34:31
  Speaker 16: from seventy three to fifty four because the youngest person
• 34:34
  Speaker 16: the Supreme Court was fifty five. Okay, not brilliant, Absolutely brilliant,
• 34:41
  Speaker 16: but again not exactly democracy light.
• 34:44
  Speaker 15: You know what I'm talking about.
• 34:45
  Speaker 16: But what do you expect from Keim Jeffries who called
• 34:47
  Speaker 16: the Supreme Court illegitimate?
• 34:49
  Speaker 15: We just saw Kamala harrih.
• 34:52
  Speaker 16: Sorry it's hard to remember her name because she's such
• 34:55
  Speaker 16: a nothing anymore. Yet she made the news because she
• 34:59
  Speaker 16: had a let's have a all hands meeting talking about
• 35:02
  Speaker 16: any idea is good. Yeah, I don't think that's actually true.
• 35:06
  Speaker 16: Packing the Supreme Court, of course, that that's on the agenda.
• 35:10
  Speaker 16: Getting rid of the electoral college is becoming a big
• 35:13
  Speaker 16: thing on the left. The left eats institution. They want
• 35:17
  Speaker 16: to destroy institution. They're normalizing radicalism. It's making my videos
• 35:22
  Speaker 16: hard to do Rita because my thing was like, I'm
• 35:25
  Speaker 16: showing how radical the left is, but now the mainstream
• 35:29
  Speaker 16: of the Democratic Party is becoming just a radical to
• 35:31
  Speaker 16: the left, So I can't do these videos an infore
• 35:34
  Speaker 16: because everyone is like that the Democratic Party.
• 35:36
  Speaker 15: Look, one last thing on this topic.
• 35:39
  Speaker 16: The Framers they studied democracies in the past, like they
• 35:43
  Speaker 16: didn't just come up with this constitution thing, and they
• 35:46
  Speaker 16: saw we don't want to have a direct democracy. They
• 35:49
  Speaker 16: knew we have mob rule. They wanted to limit the
• 35:52
  Speaker 16: direct ability for people to change the system. But the
• 35:56
  Speaker 16: left doesn't care about that. They want to burn it
• 35:59
  Speaker 16: all down. And that's what we're seeing here.
• 36:02
  Speaker 7: Yep.
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: We're seeing them increasingly saying the quiet bits out loud,
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: and then they have taken the mask off and we're
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: saying the whole ugly picture.
• 36:12
  Speaker 7: Now.
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: I want to play you the latest ad put together
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: by Spencer Pratt's supporters.
• 36:17
  Speaker 3: It's another good one.
• 36:19
  Speaker 20: I'm not maga or anything, but the city's kind of
• 36:23
  Speaker 20: gone a shit though. Right. Oh yeah, Jessica stepped on
• 36:26
  Speaker 20: a needle at the playground the other day.
• 36:28
  Speaker 7: I'm not mag or.
• 36:29
  Speaker 20: Anything, though.
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: I'm not mag or anything, but have you been downtown lately?
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: Looks like an episode of The Walking Dead. Not that
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: I'm mag or anything, though.
• 36:38
  Speaker 20: Spencer Pratt seems like he has some good ideas, not
• 36:41
  Speaker 20: that I'm maga or anything. He does seem really angry
• 36:44
  Speaker 20: all the time though, or they did burn his house
• 36:46
  Speaker 20: down me.
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: The New York Times is already blaming Donald Trump if
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: Spencer Pratt loses, They saying the President's praise will doom.
• 36:56
  Speaker 3: The outsider his campaign.
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: I mean, he is a massive outside he The fact
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: that he is even within striking distance just tells you
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: how well he's done so far.
• 37:07
  Speaker 16: Oh my god, that was I've already watched it three
• 37:11
  Speaker 16: times and it's still They burned his house down, Yeah
• 37:14
  Speaker 16: they did.
• 37:16
  Speaker 15: That was so good. Look.
• 37:17
  Speaker 16: First of all, I want to say, I want to
• 37:19
  Speaker 16: meet the casting director because eaters show the clip, but
• 37:22
  Speaker 16: everyone that showed the wives also, that are the most
• 37:24
  Speaker 16: attractive people I've ever seen a political commercial in my
• 37:27
  Speaker 16: entire life usually are trolls, but not in the case.
• 37:29
  Speaker 16: In this case, Sencer Spenser Pratt knows what he's doing
• 37:32
  Speaker 16: when he hires people.
• 37:33
  Speaker 15: You know.
• 37:34
  Speaker 16: Also, look, he's obviously made a splash on his on
• 37:37
  Speaker 16: these advertisements, but by the way, most of those AI
• 37:42
  Speaker 16: ones that made the you know, the most noise were
• 37:44
  Speaker 16: not made by his campaign. They're really grassroots generated and created,
• 37:48
  Speaker 16: which kind of gives you a sense of what's going
• 37:50
  Speaker 16: on in Los Angeles and the the real depth of
• 37:54
  Speaker 16: support that he's got. Yeah, the polls are really fascinating
• 37:58
  Speaker 16: in l A. Right, my the already of the place
• 38:00
  Speaker 16: of my birth that you in the last poll you
• 38:05
  Speaker 16: saw you saw him kind of further back from and
• 38:08
  Speaker 16: in fact behind both Democrats, but a very large undecided
• 38:13
  Speaker 16: group in that race. And in the most recent poll,
• 38:16
  Speaker 16: he's gained a lot of steam and that undecided is shrinking,
• 38:21
  Speaker 16: and it seems like most of them are moving toward Pratt.
• 38:24
  Speaker 16: That's amazing. Look, no one in LA. Look, I'm in
• 38:28
  Speaker 16: LA all the time, right, My family's still there. I'm
• 38:31
  Speaker 16: there all the time, and you rarely find anybody in
• 38:34
  Speaker 16: LA who disagreed that the city itself is disintegrate, crime
• 38:38
  Speaker 16: and homelessness are are are moving up. The problem is
• 38:42
  Speaker 16: and the reason why she is still leading and might win,
• 38:44
  Speaker 16: because a large post of population doesn't care. They think
• 38:48
  Speaker 16: fighting crime and fighting homelessness is racist and they don't
• 38:53
  Speaker 16: want that. They still they really have to have to
• 38:56
  Speaker 16: admit it's unimpressed. They'd rather live a worse light, a
• 39:00
  Speaker 16: more dangerous light, a lower quality of life, and stick
• 39:04
  Speaker 16: to their idiotic principle. So I guess that's some kind.
• 39:07
  Speaker 15: Of kudos Raman the straight up communist.
• 39:13
  Speaker 16: She said that public safety is overfunded what is at
• 39:18
  Speaker 16: the Karen.
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: Bass despite overseeing that complete dysfunction, is still leading the polls.
• 39:25
  Speaker 3: Me Horowitz, thank you so much for your time.
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: Tonight, carm You won't believe how much Michelle Obama is
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: charging for tickets to her Australian tour. Kinsey Schofield is next.
• 39:48
  Speaker 3: Welcome back now.
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: Michelle Obama kicked off her Australian tour at the Melbourne
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: Convention Center this week.
• 39:54
  Speaker 3: Yes, the relentlessly miserable former.
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: First Lady has gone from angry to disappointed. She has
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: gone from condemning MAGA to now patronizing them, claiming they
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: are just lost and desperate and voting against their own interests.
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: Oh yes, Michelle knows better than them what's good for mega.
• 40:15
  Speaker 18: You know, I can't look some people in the face
• 40:17
  Speaker 18: and tell them you have no right to be angry
• 40:20
  Speaker 18: or to do something that maybe is against your own interest.
• 40:23
  Speaker 18: That's what that's human nature. Many of the people who
• 40:26
  Speaker 18: voted for my husband twice twice, and I know that
• 40:31
  Speaker 18: that's how they feel. It's like, this isn't this isn't
• 40:33
  Speaker 18: about anything other than I'm just need we need something different.
• 40:38
  Speaker 18: They voted for Donald Trump. Yeah, you know, with a
• 40:40
  Speaker 18: lot of people, So you can't just pigeonhole them and
• 40:45
  Speaker 18: say you just don't care and you're racist or whatever
• 40:48
  Speaker 18: you're thinking. This is an act of I don't know
• 40:51
  Speaker 18: what else to do.
• 40:54
  Speaker 3: Oh good lord. She is insufferable.
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: And if you want to hear that sort of vacuous analysis,
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: then get your credit cards out. Because the cheapest tickets
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: for Michelle's Melbourne event were around two hundred dollars, with
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: some tickets costing upwards of nine hundred dollars. Joining me
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: now to discuss this and more is host of the
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: Kinsey Schofield Unfiltered podcast. Kinsey would you pay nine hundred
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: dollars dollars to hear Michelle.
• 41:21
  Speaker 6: First Rosio Donald, then Megan Markle and now Michelle Obama.
• 41:26
  Speaker 6: Hasn't Australia suffered enough? What have you done to deserve this?
• 41:30
  Speaker 6: Nine hundred dollars wouldn't even pay for the therapy I
• 41:33
  Speaker 6: would require after seeing Michelle Obama's biceps in real life. Okay,
• 41:39
  Speaker 6: but it's like Michelle and Meghan both both household names
• 41:43
  Speaker 6: due to the men that they married, with zero authority
• 41:46
  Speaker 6: or credibility in any other space other than how to
• 41:49
  Speaker 6: marry a man that will change your life. That's a
• 41:51
  Speaker 6: masterclass I might be nine hundred dollars for. But all
• 41:54
  Speaker 6: these two do is complain about their husbands.
• 42:00
  Speaker 13: Week.
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: Michelle, I mean, she's got her own podcast these days,
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: and any clips I've seen from it are just her
• 42:06
  Speaker 2: being miserable and putting bruck down, complaining about everything from
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: the way he.
• 42:11
  Speaker 3: Chooses food to the ten years of aou unhappiness.
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: Apparently you have to put up within a marriage now.
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: I did have a look at some of the audience
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: members who were attending in Melbourne, and they were straight
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: from Central Casting Kinsey as you would expect, just very
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: well to do. White woman of a certain age and
• 42:32
  Speaker 2: certain politics types you try to avoid at dinner parties.
• 42:36
  Speaker 3: Now let's talk about the Dixie Chicks, or they're just
• 42:39
  Speaker 3: the Chicks.
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: Now they're not the Dixie Chicks anymore, that the word Dixie.
• 42:42
  Speaker 3: Is too triggering.
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: Nashally Mains is the lead singer of the Chicks, and
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: she has gone on a epic anti Trump rant, really
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: showcasing new levels of crazy here with this post on Instagram,
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: she wrote, our democracy is disappearing right before our eyes.
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: This FuG slut is using your gas money to pay
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: the insurrectionists.
• 43:05
  Speaker 3: But don't worry about it.
• 43:06
  Speaker 2: I'm sure posting selfiers will fix everything. My last post
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: that called him a fugly slut got removed. We'll see
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: how long this one lasts. Reposts and help the message live.
• 43:17
  Speaker 2: Named one million times in the Epstein Files.
• 43:20
  Speaker 3: Now, Kinzie, I'm not.
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: Sure if a morbidly obese seeing out should be really
• 43:26
  Speaker 2: critical of anyone else's looks or use that as a
• 43:29
  Speaker 2: focus of her commentary. But for that reference to the
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: Epstein files, does she realize that Donald Trump's name appears
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: again and again in the Epstein Files. Because Epstein absolutely
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: loathed Donald Trump, and he would tell anybody who would listen.
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: It isn't communication between Donald Trump and Epstein. Epstein was
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: a Democrat donor, a Democrat voter, and him and Trump.
• 43:57
  Speaker 3: Fell out years ago.
• 43:59
  Speaker 2: He got banned mar a Lago before his first conviction
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: back in two thousand and eight.
• 44:04
  Speaker 3: If I remember correct Linkinsey Jeffrey Epstein.
• 44:07
  Speaker 6: It was but that Trump ultimately turned his back on
• 44:10
  Speaker 6: him once he got wend of his reputation as a
• 44:12
  Speaker 6: sexual predator, and after Epstein clocked that rejection, he went nuclear,
• 44:17
  Speaker 6: trying to sabotage Trump's run for presidency and jeopardize some
• 44:21
  Speaker 6: of his professional relationships. So yes, Trump has mentioned numerous
• 44:24
  Speaker 6: times in the Epstein files because Epstein had a chip
• 44:27
  Speaker 6: on his shoulder and was out for revenge. But look,
• 44:29
  Speaker 6: this is what Natalie does for attention today because they
• 44:32
  Speaker 6: don't play Goodbye Earl on the radio anymore.
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: Well.
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: I had to look at the comments on this post,
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: and I've got to say I was pretty shocked. You
• 44:41
  Speaker 2: would think her fans would be on board with this
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: sort of messaging. They know what her politics, ah, But no,
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: there was just a lot of criticism and not much
• 44:52
  Speaker 2: support from what I saw now. Meghan Markol has made
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: a surprise visit to the UK, her first since two
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: and twenty two. The secret trip was revealed after Meghan
• 45:03
  Speaker 2: posted a photo of the car the British Airways crew
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: gifted the Duchess in recognition of her recent wedding anniversary.
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: Thanks to this amazing flight crew for all the love,
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: Meghan wrote on Instagram. Appreciate all your memories and kind words, Kinsey.
• 45:19
  Speaker 2: Meghan was traveling home to California from Geneva, where she
• 45:22
  Speaker 2: spoke about protecting children from the harms of social media,
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: but it was an event where nobody showed up. The
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: footage was rather embarrassing. No one showed up other than
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: the media.
• 45:35
  Speaker 6: Kinsey, Well, I mean, maybe people are sick of Harry
• 45:40
  Speaker 6: and Meghan grief grifting off of them and using their
• 45:43
  Speaker 6: pain as media currency. Maybe that's why the audiences are
• 45:47
  Speaker 6: looking pretty low. I think sharing a card from a
• 45:50
  Speaker 6: group of people hired to serve you reeks of narcissism
• 45:56
  Speaker 6: and doesn't convince anybody that she's going to win a
• 45:58
  Speaker 6: popularity contest anytime soon. She could time share with former
• 46:03
  Speaker 6: Prince Andrew. Their favorability numbers are so low. So I mean,
• 46:07
  Speaker 6: this is just why won't they go away? They are
• 46:11
  Speaker 6: like chlamtiot, why can't they just go away?
• 46:14
  Speaker 3: Reader? Well, they're not going away.
• 46:17
  Speaker 2: And it's been revealed that they're working on a new
• 46:21
  Speaker 2: documentary for Netflix. Isn't this happy news? And there's reports
• 46:27
  Speaker 2: that it's going to act as a subtle clapback to
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: President Trump. The couple are producing an adaptation of No
• 46:34
  Speaker 2: Way Out, the searing true story of Men under Siege,
• 46:38
  Speaker 2: are best selling memoir by a British Army major.
• 46:42
  Speaker 3: And I don't know.
• 46:43
  Speaker 2: This comes after Trump in January seem to question the
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: contribution of native forces in Afghanistan and there's talk can
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: see that this is a subtle clapback at the president.
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: This couple don't do subtlety. Well, they're about as subtle
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: as a sledge.
• 47:01
  Speaker 3: That's right.
• 47:01
  Speaker 6: And you know King Charles did reach out to Trump
• 47:04
  Speaker 6: after he made those comments and tried to regulate. So
• 47:08
  Speaker 6: this is again Harry inserting himself somewhere where he's unneeded,
• 47:13
  Speaker 6: not necessary, But this is one of many book adaptions.
• 47:17
  Speaker 6: Harry and Meghan have purchased the rights to the wedding
• 47:20
  Speaker 6: date meet Me at the Lake, plus a new scripted
• 47:22
  Speaker 6: polo series? Reader, where are all of these projects? If
• 47:26
  Speaker 6: Harry and Meghan put half as much energy in actually
• 47:29
  Speaker 6: executing as they put into leaking positive stories about themselves,
• 47:34
  Speaker 6: their IMDb profiles might actually expand, but alas there's no
• 47:39
  Speaker 6: real action. So I think Trump's completely unfazed by this,
• 47:42
  Speaker 6: and I just patiently wait, Like the skull emoji in
• 47:46
  Speaker 6: front of the computer, I patiently wait for Harry and
• 47:49
  Speaker 6: Meghan to execute anything they tease.
• 47:53
  Speaker 2: I just want them to enjoy our life of privacy,
• 47:56
  Speaker 2: which is what they fled the Royal family to do.
• 47:59
  Speaker 3: We still haven't got now.
• 48:01
  Speaker 2: A high profile lawyer has told Page Six of the
• 48:04
  Speaker 2: steamy details that could be disclosed in Taylor Swift's and
• 48:08
  Speaker 2: Travis Kelcey's potential pre nuptial agreement, which could include the
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: pair being barred from discussing their marriage in public.
• 48:15
  Speaker 3: Lawyer Sarah Lueto told.
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: The magazines Swift and Kelsey may wish to include terms
• 48:21
  Speaker 2: fostering confidentiality and privacy. This may include non disparagement or
• 48:27
  Speaker 2: non disclosure terms related to their relationship.
• 48:31
  Speaker 3: In Taylor's case, she would.
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: Likely not want to include provisions limiting her from singing
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: about her relationship in songs, particularly since there is always
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: so much speculation about the subjects of her songwriting. Kidsie,
• 48:44
  Speaker 2: this doesn't sound very romantic.
• 48:47
  Speaker 6: No, there's nothing romantic about this at all. But I
• 48:50
  Speaker 6: also think, unfortunately, I feel like I come off as
• 48:54
  Speaker 6: a swift you when I do your show, because I
• 48:55
  Speaker 6: have so much information about this woman. She's famously intentional
• 48:59
  Speaker 6: with her storytelling in easter Egg culture, so the idea
• 49:03
  Speaker 6: that she would suddenly be boxed in by legal clauses
• 49:05
  Speaker 6: about songwriting feels more like a storyline in like a
• 49:09
  Speaker 6: Shonda Rhimes Crossroad Crossroads Britney Spears remake than something grounded
• 49:15
  Speaker 6: in how Taylor actually operates. If she wants to give
• 49:18
  Speaker 6: us a Travis Kelsey song, she's gonna give us one.
• 49:21
  Speaker 6: You know.
• 49:23
  Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, Kinsy.
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: I can just imagine you on album release night going
• 49:28
  Speaker 2: through the lyrics, trying to decipher precisely what she means,
• 49:32
  Speaker 2: who she's talking about, what the hidden meanings are. What, Oh, Kinsey,
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: I need to have an intervention for you. You will
• 49:39
