0:03
Speaker 1: Starting right now. It's a show.
0:09
Speaker 2: Good evening and welcome to the Rita Panahe show coming
0:12
Speaker 2: up tonight. Moderate liberal Andrew brad continues to cause unrest
0:16
Speaker 2: within coalition ranks after his National Press Club address. My
0:21
Speaker 2: panel will cover that. In the day's other top headlines.
0:24
Speaker 2: A transgender player given the green light by the AFL
0:28
Speaker 2: to take to the field in a woman's competition.
0:31
Speaker 3: I'll get Stephanie Bastian's reaction to that. Mi Horowitz will
0:35
Speaker 3: have the latest from.
0:36
Speaker 2: The US, including the US we're drawing troops out of
0:40
Speaker 2: Iraq after more than twenty.
0:42
Speaker 3: Years in that country.
0:43
Speaker 2: And Rosie o'donald tattoos her child's pronouns on her wrists.
0:49
Speaker 2: Kinziskofil will have all your entertainment and royal news and
0:54
Speaker 2: Left is losing. It features this WNBA head coach having
0:58
Speaker 2: a little meltdown, the.
1:00
Speaker 4: Fear mongering, the divisiveness, the stuff that's trying to hijack
1:04
Speaker 4: our league.
1:05
Speaker 2: Will not win, but first, a coalition split has emerged
1:11
Speaker 2: after moderate liberal Andrew Bragg announced sweeping policy positions that
1:16
Speaker 2: had not gone through the Shadow Cabinet only two hours
1:20
Speaker 2: before Senator Bragg's addressed as the National Press Club National's
1:24
Speaker 2: leader Mat Canavan said he was confident the coalition won't
1:28
Speaker 2: be touching working holidaymakers, but in bragg speech, he specifically
1:34
Speaker 2: nominated that cohort as one that could be cut.
1:38
Speaker 3: To lower the net annual migration rate.
1:41
Speaker 2: Senator Brag also spoke expansively on policy, including a call
1:45
Speaker 2: to rebalance income tax, GST, fiscal management, deregulation, and energy,
1:52
Speaker 2: all of which wasn't approved by Shadow Cabinet. Let's bring
1:56
Speaker 2: in Mendsi's Research Center, Senior fellow Nkata and News twenty
2:00
Speaker 2: four contributor Louise roberts Nick, exactly who was Senator Brag
2:06
Speaker 2: appealing to with this speech, because it seems to have
2:08
Speaker 2: upset a lot of people. It's upset the Nationals, it's
2:11
Speaker 2: upset conservatives in his own party, people in regional communities
2:16
Speaker 2: and business groups.
2:19
Speaker 5: A bit of a mystery to me, Richa, I must say,
2:21
Speaker 5: who is trying to feel to he talks about the
2:23
Speaker 5: radical center. I'm not quite sure who this radigical center is.
2:26
Speaker 5: I don't think I've ever met any of these people
2:29
Speaker 5: who are both radical.
2:30
Speaker 1: And from the nominal centers. I really don't know.
2:33
Speaker 5: I think there were some very useful things in that speech,
2:35
Speaker 5: by the way, they've been overlooked, and that's a shame
2:37
Speaker 5: that by freelancing, by getting out of his lane, people
2:40
Speaker 5: have overlooked the really solid stuff about getting rid of
2:44
Speaker 5: a lot of the regulation around building housing that's preventing
2:47
Speaker 5: us from having housing. And one hundred and eighty thousand
2:50
Speaker 5: I think was his figure for migration. Well, let's have
2:54
Speaker 5: the details. And if it's going to mean cutting working
2:57
Speaker 5: holiday visas for backpackison and so forth, then I think
3:01
Speaker 5: there's an issue there because you know, as you know
3:04
Speaker 5: in the country, there's a lot of jobs that we
3:06
Speaker 5: need doing that Australians are not prepared to do.
3:09
Speaker 1: I mean, for instance, avatars.
3:11
Speaker 5: For instance, I think every avatar in Australia would close
3:14
Speaker 5: down if it wasn't for this migrant labor. So I
3:18
Speaker 5: don't know, maybe it's a call for us all to
3:20
Speaker 5: go vegetarian or something. Basically, it's got to be thought
3:24
Speaker 5: through very very carefully. And okay, it was a start
3:28
Speaker 5: from Andrew Bragg, but I think we need a lot
3:30
Speaker 5: more work on this policy before we come to any
3:33
Speaker 5: firm conclusions.
3:35
Speaker 2: Louise, I don't know if going vegetarian is going to
3:37
Speaker 2: work because we need those holiday makers of seasonal workers
3:42
Speaker 2: to also pick our fruit.
3:43
Speaker 3: So that's the regional communities do depend on them.
3:47
Speaker 2: And I wonder if is this going to put pressure
3:50
Speaker 2: on the National Liberal coalition because farmers and people in
3:55
Speaker 2: regional communities really need those seasonal roles filled. And I
4:01
Speaker 2: do wonder why Senator Bragg would be so reckless. He
4:04
Speaker 2: would know that what he was saying was going to
4:07
Speaker 2: cause waves with his National colleagues.
4:10
Speaker 6: That's right.
4:11
Speaker 7: It puts him directly at odds with the Nationals. They're
4:13
Speaker 7: absolutely right rata and if you go to those rural communities,
4:16
Speaker 7: we've got not only the avatars that Nick mentions, but
4:19
Speaker 7: the vineyards and the fruit picking and everything else they
4:22
Speaker 7: completely rely on migrant workers and they build an infrastructure
4:26
Speaker 7: in the local towns to support that, to the housing,
4:29
Speaker 7: the advertising, the local food industry, etc. So that that's
4:33
Speaker 7: really run on the migrant population that are coming into Australia.
4:37
Speaker 7: So unless he wants the food bowls of say New
4:40
Speaker 7: South Wales something like the River Reader to completely implow
4:42
Speaker 7: because there's no workers there to pick the fruit and
4:46
Speaker 7: look after the vineyards. And I don't understand his reasoning
4:50
Speaker 7: here at all. Yeah, it's a very dangerous president to
4:54
Speaker 7: set to be freelancing in this way. And yes he's
4:56
Speaker 7: been slapped down by the Party and the opposition leader,
5:00
Speaker 7: Angus Taylor, but it's a mystery to me why he
5:03
Speaker 7: would do that and really cause such division with the Nationals,
5:07
Speaker 7: who they clearly need on side.
5:10
Speaker 2: I do wonder whether this is the start nick of
5:14
Speaker 2: a challenge to Angus Taylor's leadership. Is he just testing
5:18
Speaker 2: the waters to see what the moody is like in
5:21
Speaker 2: the party. I'm not suggesting he's going to challenge personally,
5:24
Speaker 2: but just to see because you've got to say, the
5:28
Speaker 2: opinion polls aren't doing well. The last News poll released
5:31
Speaker 2: this week was pretty disastrous for the coalition.
5:35
Speaker 5: Well they're not great, right, I mean, nobody's pretending the
5:37
Speaker 5: Poles are great, But nobody's pretending either there are quick
5:40
Speaker 5: fixes to this. I mean Angus Taylor said when he
5:42
Speaker 5: came in it's going to be a long term struggle
5:46
Speaker 5: to get the party back in contention.
5:48
Speaker 1: Obviously it is.
5:49
Speaker 5: I don't think that there's anybody serious within the Parliamentary
5:53
Speaker 5: Party that I've heard of that's calling for a leadership change.
5:56
Speaker 5: I mean, I don't see how that's actually going to
5:58
Speaker 5: fix anything. What Now, they've got to get down. They've
6:00
Speaker 5: got to dig down, do the policy work. And that's
6:03
Speaker 5: what Angus Taylor has been doing. His colleagues have been
6:07
Speaker 5: full of praise for him for the policy work he's done.
6:09
Speaker 5: He's got to do a lot more getting that out there,
6:12
Speaker 5: selling that message, telling people what's on his mind. But
6:17
Speaker 5: I mean, I don't really think. I mean, I could
6:18
Speaker 5: be completely wrong on this reason. I've been wrong before.
6:21
Speaker 5: I don't think there's any serious policy, any leadership challenge,
6:25
Speaker 5: and certainly not from Andrew Bragg. I don't see him
6:28
Speaker 5: as a future opposition leader just yet.
6:31
Speaker 2: Now finally on Senator Brag, He's also upset Australia's peak
6:35
Speaker 2: hospitality and accommodation bodies. He said that the country needs
6:40
Speaker 2: fewer pastry chefs and bristers and more tradees well. The
6:43
Speaker 2: Australian Hotels Association national boss Stephen Ferguson said we don't
6:48
Speaker 2: appreciate cheap shots against occupations such as chefs, especially in
6:53
Speaker 2: regional Australia. The need for overseas workers is paramount now
6:58
Speaker 2: oppositionally to Angus Taylor, I was on Peter Kreedlin's program
7:01
Speaker 2: last night, and he couldn't commit to a migration ceiling,
7:06
Speaker 2: but said it would be lower than one hundred and
7:08
Speaker 2: eighty thousand.
7:09
Speaker 6: It will be well below one hundred and eighty thousand.
7:11
Speaker 1: It will be a number that will be real.
7:13
Speaker 2: I'll tell you Labour's targets.
7:15
Speaker 8: They've never met.
7:15
Speaker 3: Them, Louise.
7:16
Speaker 2: At what point do they need to determine what that
7:19
Speaker 2: number is and start communicating it. Immigration is shaping up
7:23
Speaker 2: to be an enormous issue in the coming election, perhaps
7:28
Speaker 2: the key issue, given its impact on so many other
7:31
Speaker 2: areas well.
7:32
Speaker 7: The time is now for that number. The fact that
7:34
Speaker 7: Andrew Bragg thought that he could come out and say
7:36
Speaker 7: the Press club that we need to be one hundred
7:38
Speaker 7: and eighty thousand show so Angustata needs to be party
7:42
Speaker 7: leader and actually come out and say, yes, this is
7:44
Speaker 7: what our target is, this is what we're going to
7:46
Speaker 7: do because the immigration migration debate is absolutely toxic in
7:49
Speaker 7: this country at the moment. It affects every level from
7:52
Speaker 7: housing to housing affordability, to infrastructure to education everything. It's
7:57
Speaker 7: a number one topic apart from cost of living that
7:59
Speaker 7: people are talking about. So if it's a missed opportunity
8:03
Speaker 7: if mister Taylor does not actually come from center and
8:05
Speaker 7: say this is our number, rather than someone else in
8:08
Speaker 7: the party saying it for him.
8:11
Speaker 2: Now, the Japanese government has released its first public statement
8:15
Speaker 2: about the Melons saga, noting it had been assured by
8:20
Speaker 2: the Australian government that the Prime minister's comments were misrepresented. However,
8:25
Speaker 2: the statement released by the embassy in Canberra stopped short
8:28
Speaker 2: of saying whether the Japanese believed that assurance, and there
8:33
Speaker 2: are apparently frustrations internally, with several MPs telling the Australian
8:37
Speaker 2: Financial Review that the PM's denials could.
8:41
Speaker 3: Damage him and the government.
8:44
Speaker 2: Nick this has just been such an unedifying and frankly
8:49
Speaker 2: avoidable mess.
8:51
Speaker 3: It was such a stupid thing to do.
8:53
Speaker 2: But once it was done and out there, a simple
8:56
Speaker 2: acknowledgment and apology would have gone a long way.
9:00
Speaker 5: You think we had nothing serious to talk about it
9:02
Speaker 5: in this country. We've been absorbed for weeks and weeks
9:05
Speaker 5: and weeks on this stupid podcast. Mellongate course blew up
9:09
Speaker 5: at the start of the week. It's going on and on.
9:11
Speaker 5: This is not good for the country. It's certainly not
9:14
Speaker 5: good for the Prime minister who just looks grubbier.
9:17
Speaker 1: And more invasive by the day.
9:20
Speaker 5: If he had any sense whatsoever, he go out there
9:24
Speaker 5: the big mea kalper clear the air, apologized to the
9:27
Speaker 5: Japanese Prime Minister, apologized to the Japanese people, probably apologize
9:32
Speaker 5: to the opposition who've been demanding this apological week.
9:36
Speaker 1: And just get it off the table.
9:37
Speaker 5: Look, it was there in question time at day end
9:39
Speaker 5: of day, no doubt it'll be bubbling along every time
9:43
Speaker 5: he appears untill he makes a let me say, a
9:46
Speaker 5: clean breast of it, if I may say it that way.
9:49
Speaker 9: Oh dear Ah Louise, I've got to say the female ministers,
9:57
Speaker 9: powerful senior ministers who've willingly embarrassed themselves in recent days,
10:04
Speaker 9: Clara O'Neil taniel plivers among them, just.
10:08
Speaker 2: For this blind, dutiful support of the Prime minister. They
10:12
Speaker 2: know precisely what he meant. There is no ambiguity here.
10:15
Speaker 2: The innuendo was clear for everyone to see, and they're
10:20
Speaker 2: gas lighting of the nation saying oh no, no, no, have
10:23
Speaker 2: a look at it. You can tell that's not what
10:25
Speaker 2: he means. It's been misrepresented. I mean, give me a.
10:28
Speaker 7: Break, absolutely, give us all the break. I mean that
10:30
Speaker 7: you know, elbows angels, you know, been willed out to
10:33
Speaker 7: defend the indefense of Wall or Stepford Wives or what
10:36
Speaker 7: he'd like to call them. But the innuendo is there.
10:39
Speaker 7: So if there's no innuendo, what's the joke. That's the
10:41
Speaker 7: other part of this that he hasn't really explained what's
10:44
Speaker 7: so funny about this, and you know, and every time
10:47
Speaker 7: he's asked about it, he sort of says, We've got
10:49
Speaker 7: a wonderful relationship with Japan, with the Prime Minister, with
10:51
Speaker 7: the ambassador, et cetera, et cetera. But we know what
10:54
Speaker 7: we saw his hand gestures and we know what we heard,
10:57
Speaker 7: and so we've been gas lit again, not only by
10:59
Speaker 7: these always angels, but by the Prime Minister himself. It
11:03
Speaker 7: just reminded me so much of the time he fell
11:05
Speaker 7: off the stage during the campaign, but of course didn't
11:08
Speaker 7: fall off the stage because none of us saw that.
11:10
Speaker 7: It's this sort of revision of history that we can't
11:13
Speaker 7: be trusted with our own eyes to see what's actually
11:16
Speaker 7: happening in Australia.
11:17
Speaker 2: So and the fact that this isn't some media beat up.
11:23
Speaker 2: We had the former Japanese ambassador to Australia pen apiece
11:28
Speaker 2: about just how badly this has been received in Japan
11:32
Speaker 2: and how insulted they are.
11:34
Speaker 3: That's what's caused this media storm.
11:36
Speaker 2: So for the Prime Minister to try to pretend, oh,
11:38
Speaker 2: this is just a storm in a teacup, is again
11:42
Speaker 2: just not fooling anybody. Before you go, there was a
11:45
Speaker 2: report in the Adelaide Advertiser that Senator Alex Antique is
11:50
Speaker 2: facing a challenge for the South Australian Liberal presidency. Senator
11:55
Speaker 2: Antique is currently the only publicly declared candidate for this role.
12:00
Speaker 2: Nick Liberal insiders are confident the Mystery Challenge Act can defeating.
12:06
Speaker 1: Who is this mystery challenger?
12:08
Speaker 5: I don't know, but I mean this is aren't we
12:10
Speaker 5: talking about shuffling the deck chairs on the Titanic here?
12:14
Speaker 1: Reach?
12:14
Speaker 5: I mean there's South Australian Liberal Party suffered its worst
12:18
Speaker 5: ever defeat by a long long way in the state election.
12:22
Speaker 5: It's heading for the same result at the federal level
12:25
Speaker 5: unless it pulls itself.
12:27
Speaker 1: Together very very quickly.
12:29
Speaker 5: So I don't know what Alexantik's plans are if it
12:32
Speaker 5: becomes president, or I don't even know what that job
12:34
Speaker 5: really means, or whoever else is going to do it.
12:37
Speaker 5: But they've just got to come in with one aim
12:41
Speaker 5: and one aim only, and that's to sort out this mess,
12:44
Speaker 5: sort out this message.
12:45
Speaker 1: Any thought that they're in there for.
12:47
Speaker 5: Personal aggrandizement or to push a factional point of view
12:51
Speaker 5: or something, put that at the back of your mind,
12:53
Speaker 5: because the Liberal Party is not going to exist in
12:55
Speaker 5: South Australia for much longer unless somebody gets gets in
12:59
Speaker 5: and actually pulls that ship together.
13:02
Speaker 2: Louise, This in fighting among the Liberals is not helpful,
13:05
Speaker 2: and Senator alex Antik is one of their very best
13:09
Speaker 2: performers and best defenses to One Nation, so why they
13:13
Speaker 2: would be going after him is beyond me.
13:15
Speaker 7: I agree, But the arguing from his colleague seems to
13:18
Speaker 7: be that he's too far right and he's too much
13:20
Speaker 7: like One Nation, he's too populist in a way, which
13:23
Speaker 7: is a bit of a crazy strategy to adopt, I think,
13:26
Speaker 7: when they should be actually embracing him and weaponizing him
13:29
Speaker 7: against One Nation and against labor as well. So obviously
13:33
Speaker 7: he's causing some real consternation though read it, because why
13:36
Speaker 7: would ever be piling in to try and stop him
13:38
Speaker 7: and try and gag him in a way, so he's
13:40
Speaker 7: definitely ruffling some feathers. Be very interesting to see how
13:43
Speaker 7: this plays out for him.
13:46
Speaker 2: It's almost like they're trying to push him into one nation,
13:49
Speaker 2: because I'm sure one nation would be very happy to
13:51
Speaker 2: have him in the party. Louise Robertson, Nicasha, thank you
13:55
Speaker 2: so much for your time. Now transgender player has been
13:59
Speaker 2: given the light by the AFL to take the field
14:02
Speaker 2: in the Adelaide Footy League women's competition. Freyer Golding stands
14:07
Speaker 2: around six foot two and weighs more than ninety kilograms
14:11
Speaker 2: and has played in the men's competition before he identified
14:15
Speaker 2: as a woman. Under guidelines, a player can be individually
14:19
Speaker 2: assessed if there are concerns their participation poses an unacceptable
14:23
Speaker 2: risk to themselves or other players. But in this case,
14:27
Speaker 2: the AFL's Gender Diversity Policy Committee wasn't satisfied that Golding's
14:33
Speaker 2: participation carried an unacceptable safety risk. This is despite three
14:38
Speaker 2: separate clubs lodging formal duty of care complaints citing several
14:43
Speaker 2: safety incidents during the season. Joining me now is Women's
14:48
Speaker 2: Forum Australia head of advocacy, Stephanie Bastian. Stephanie this is
14:52
Speaker 2: frankly embarrassing. It shows the AFL's grandstanding about the treatment
14:57
Speaker 2: of women is just that grandstanding.
15:02
Speaker 10: Absolutely, I mean, this whole thing is a fast There
15:04
Speaker 10: is absolutely no consideration for the safety of female players
15:07
Speaker 10: on the field. Three clubs have launched concerns about this
15:11
Speaker 10: particular player, yet he's allowed.
15:13
Speaker 3: To continue to compete.
15:15
Speaker 10: We have written to the AFL CEO Andrew Dillon and
15:19
Speaker 10: requested that he review this decision. I don't know why
15:22
Speaker 10: a gender diversity policy committee is making decisions about safety,
15:26
Speaker 10: but it's clearly not appropriate.
15:28
Speaker 11: But more than.
15:29
Speaker 10: Mending this decision, we want them to actually review their
15:32
Speaker 10: policy often return sports back to the AFL teams back
15:36
Speaker 10: to single sex only. The most recent development on this
15:39
Speaker 10: case is that teams and players have said they're willing
15:42
Speaker 10: to boycott if this is not fixed. So what you
15:44
Speaker 10: have is this inclusive policy that's now excluding women and
15:48
Speaker 10: girls who feel unsafe on the field.
15:52
Speaker 3: Yeah, one hundred percent.
15:53
Speaker 2: Rite Adelaide Footy League chief John Kernahan has said that
15:56
Speaker 2: sub clubs are indicating that they would forfeit gas.
16:00
Speaker 3: Because of this decision, so to be inclusive.
16:03
Speaker 2: Stephanie of one trans player who identifies as a woman.
16:08
Speaker 2: A whole lot of real women are going to be
16:10
Speaker 2: disadvantaged by these games being forfeited.
16:14
Speaker 10: Yes, it's absolute disgrace and it's not even about this
16:17
Speaker 10: one individual player. It's about the precedent that's set, that
16:20
Speaker 10: is set here, and we know that in Victoria and
16:23
Speaker 10: in New South Wales there's been an increase in male
16:26
Speaker 10: trans identifying players being permitted onto female team now. I
16:30
Speaker 10: have spoken with AFL players in Victoria, particularly from Unique clubs.
16:35
Speaker 10: One told me that she had to quit university because
16:37
Speaker 10: she received such a severe injury or concussion she could
16:41
Speaker 10: no longer continue with the studies. Another incident involved a
16:43
Speaker 10: woman taking a mark clashing with a trans identifying player
16:46
Speaker 10: and she required stomach surgery.
16:49
Speaker 3: There are serious.
16:50
Speaker 10: Injuries happening and this is absolute disgrace that they will
16:54
Speaker 10: not review this policy and fix it. Because there are
16:57
Speaker 10: physological differences between men and women. Men are stronger, they
17:01
Speaker 10: have much more height, they have much more strength and stamina,
17:06
Speaker 10: and these are all things that are critical, particularly in
17:08
Speaker 10: a contact sport like AFL.
17:11
Speaker 3: Well, that's why we have an AFL W.
17:13
Speaker 2: That's what the W stands for, because women cannot compete
17:17
Speaker 2: with men. We are different they're bigger, they're stronger, they're faster. Now,
17:22
Speaker 2: this ruling has been mocked internationally, even by celebrities. We've
17:27
Speaker 2: got Britisher, actor and comic John Cleese, tennis great Martina Navratilova.
17:34
Speaker 2: They have described it as madness. Stephanie Australia really is
17:38
Speaker 2: an outlier because most of the world seems to have
17:41
Speaker 2: come to terms with this. There are still debates happening,
17:45
Speaker 2: like in the WNBA, but we've got global sporting bodies
17:49
Speaker 2: having hard and fast rules about who can qualify to
17:53
Speaker 2: compete with women. But this just seems to be some
17:56
Speaker 2: feelings approached from the AFL. If it feels good, then
18:00
Speaker 2: we'll do it, never mind the impact on real women.
18:05
Speaker 10: Yes, that's right, and I mean at a grassroots level,
18:08
Speaker 10: there is certainly a conversation going on. We're seeing more
18:11
Speaker 10: parents and players speak up, but in terms of the leadership,
18:14
Speaker 10: they seem to be totally captured by gender ideology and
18:17
Speaker 10: they're refusing to engage.
18:18
Speaker 3: On the same.
18:19
Speaker 10: With the current federal labor government, we cannot get them
18:21
Speaker 10: to address this issue. In twenty twenty two, Women's Forum
18:26
Speaker 10: produced a comprehensive report on this very issue, warning that
18:30
Speaker 10: these sorts of incidences were going to happen and they
18:32
Speaker 10: were going to grow. We sent it to then newly
18:35
Speaker 10: minted Sports Minister and Equelles, who's still the Sports Minister today,
18:39
Speaker 10: and she didn't respond.
18:41
Speaker 3: This has been in.
18:42
Speaker 10: The press for over a month now and she is
18:45
Speaker 10: still ignoring it. I am writing another letter to her today.
18:48
Speaker 10: But we have had inaction on this because I think
18:50
Speaker 10: our governments are cowardly and they're totally captured by gender ideology.
18:55
Speaker 3: They absolutely are, and so is the AFL.
18:58
Speaker 2: And you mentioned earlier you've written to the AFL CEO
19:01
Speaker 2: Andrew Dylon will check in with you next week to
19:04
Speaker 2: see if he has responded to your letter and whether
19:07
Speaker 2: this insane decision is going.
19:09
Speaker 3: To be reviewed.
19:10
Speaker 2: Stephanie Bastian, thank you so much for your time Tonight,
19:13
Speaker 2: Still to come Lefties Losing It, plus the latest from
19:17
Speaker 2: the US, including US troops we're drawing out of Iraq
19:21
Speaker 2: after more than twenty years. Mi Horowitz is up next,
19:34
Speaker 2: Welcome back, and it's time for Lefties Losing It. The
19:39
Speaker 2: WNBA better be ready because the big, black, beautiful and
19:42
Speaker 2: sometimes trans women are coming. Former NBA players and first
19:47
Speaker 2: round draft picks. In his freedom and Royce White are
19:51
Speaker 2: ready to play.
19:52
Speaker 3: You want it to be.
19:53
Speaker 2: Stupidly woken, inclusive, and well guess what they are going
19:57
Speaker 2: to nominate for the draft. Let's have a look at
19:59
Speaker 2: Inniscanta Freedom, who posted this update saying let the transition
20:04
Speaker 2: to the WNBA begin, and he had this cute little
20:07
Speaker 2: video and.
20:08
Speaker 12: Woman, I am pious, I am sexy, devine, I'm on
20:14
Speaker 12: beautiful creative.
20:17
Speaker 2: Yes he I'm sorry. She is getting ready to compete.
20:20
Speaker 2: Looks match fit to me. And he's nominated for the
20:24
Speaker 2: WNBA draft.
20:26
Speaker 1: This official official I just declared for the twenty twenty
20:29
Speaker 1: seven wb draft in April.
20:31
Speaker 12: Join me in this joy.
20:34
Speaker 5: The WNBA does not ban men who identify as women
20:37
Speaker 5: right now from playing in the.
20:38
Speaker 1: Line would dominate the WNBA without adding an eyelash the
20:42
Speaker 1: number one prospects in the history.
20:44
Speaker 2: Of BMBA exciting times ahead. But our brave and stunning
20:48
Speaker 2: and sometimes trans women are facing discrimination, including from CNN,
20:54
Speaker 2: who spiked an interview with Royce White for no good reason.
20:58
Speaker 2: The bigotry is a stat set to do.
21:01
Speaker 8: An interview with CENN at five pm Central, and around
21:05
Speaker 8: two three o'clock they messaged me and said we're canceling
21:09
Speaker 8: the interview. We have other news. That's the universal excuse.
21:14
Speaker 8: We have other news, and I just for the life
21:17
Speaker 8: for me again, they're not given black women a voice
21:24
Speaker 8: sometimes identify as trans black women a voice on CNN
21:30
Speaker 8: just blows my mind. It's disappointing.
21:32
Speaker 2: They're not giving sometimes identifying trans black women a voice.
21:35
Speaker 3: It's disgraceful.
21:36
Speaker 2: Now, this may be the most unhinged performance you'll ever
21:39
Speaker 2: see at a press conference, a self serving table thumping incoherent,
21:44
Speaker 2: contradictory meltdown from the Indiana Fever head coach Stephanie White.
21:50
Speaker 3: But before we.
21:51
Speaker 2: Look at that, let's see what inspired this episode. As
21:54
Speaker 2: we discussed earlier in the week, the attacks against Sophie
21:57
Speaker 2: Cunningham haven't just been off the court.
22:00
Speaker 3: She also copped this clothesline tackle.
22:02
Speaker 4: Baz coming down trying to prevent the layup.
22:05
Speaker 8: But that is just a hard hit that's.
22:08
Speaker 4: Definitely going to be upgraded, I think to a flagrant.
22:11
Speaker 3: And the culprit there, dejon A.
22:13
Speaker 2: Carrington, immediately played the race card and claimed white privilege
22:17
Speaker 2: was behind the flagrant foul being called. She tried to
22:21
Speaker 2: backtrack from that, but we all know what she meant now,
22:23
Speaker 2: Instead of standing with her player Sophie Cunningham, who was
22:28
Speaker 2: left bloodied after that flagrant foul, the Fever coach decided
22:32
Speaker 2: to talk about what a great player the aggressive was,
22:35
Speaker 2: how she works her butt off. Listen to this and
22:39
Speaker 2: watch the reaction of her players.
22:41
Speaker 4: I don't think that Djna intentionally came out to get
22:44
Speaker 4: her across the neck like she did, but it did happen,
22:48
Speaker 4: and I thought it was a right call. But you know,
22:51
Speaker 4: one of the things about Nay is that she's gonna
22:53
Speaker 4: play her butt off. Man, She's gonna compete. Nobody's gonna
22:55
Speaker 4: go walking in for a layup, and so I'm not
22:58
Speaker 4: I don't oppose the hard foul, but I also don't
23:01
Speaker 4: think that she intentionally went for the net.
23:03
Speaker 2: May Well, Caitlin Clark hold her head in her hands.
23:06
Speaker 3: Now, this is nothing new.
23:07
Speaker 2: Stephanie White threw Sophie Cunningham under the bus the previous
23:11
Speaker 2: week when she was asked about whether men should be
23:13
Speaker 2: allowed to compete against women.
23:15
Speaker 10: What is your stance on men or athletes who test
23:19
Speaker 10: as biological male participating in women's sports.
23:21
Speaker 1: What's your personal stance?
23:23
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I'm I don't know that I would
23:25
Speaker 4: say that I'm educated enough from a scientific standpoint, I
23:29
Speaker 4: don't ever believe that exclusion is an answer.
23:31
Speaker 8: I just don't.
23:32
Speaker 2: Yep, you've got a fully formed adult woman there, working
23:36
Speaker 2: in professional sport who apparently can't work out that men
23:39
Speaker 2: are bigger, faster, and stronger. But all of that pals
23:43
Speaker 2: in comparison to this meldown. Now that the coach has
23:47
Speaker 2: rightly copped criticism for not defending her player, particularly when
23:52
Speaker 2: she was clotheslined on the court, so she decided to
23:56
Speaker 2: deliver this dementedly delicious, table thumb fulformance.
24:01
Speaker 3: Now she starts off with what sounds.
24:03
Speaker 2: Like a straight out lie, claiming she didn't see the foul,
24:07
Speaker 2: though as you can see in this image, she's looking
24:11
Speaker 2: right at it.
24:11
Speaker 4: For those who have anything to say about the play
24:14
Speaker 4: in the last game, I didn't see the play in
24:16
Speaker 4: real time. I went straight to a press conference. I
24:18
Speaker 4: thought the play got called right. Thankfully, Sophie's okay. I
24:21
Speaker 4: take personally sorry any suggestions that I don't one hundred
24:25
Speaker 4: percent always have my players back. I ride at them
24:28
Speaker 4: ten toes down all the time, all the time. The
24:31
Speaker 4: reality is with me. I will always lead with love,
24:36
Speaker 4: I will always lead with grace. I will always lead
24:40
Speaker 4: with humility, and I will always lead with integrity. Doesn't
24:44
Speaker 4: mean I'll always get it right. I'm also human. The hate,
24:50
Speaker 4: the fear mongering, the divisiveness, the stuff that's trying to
24:53
Speaker 4: hijack our league will not win.
24:56
Speaker 3: Loud noises.
24:58
Speaker 2: If I just thumped the table, we'll forget that. I'm
25:01
Speaker 2: disingenuous week and woke and threw my player under the bus.
25:05
Speaker 3: But I have saved the best for last.
25:07
Speaker 2: Listen to the incoherent, contradictory way she ended this little rant.
25:13
Speaker 4: When they go low, we go high. Love will win,
25:16
Speaker 4: grace will win, humility will win, and kindness will win.
25:22
Speaker 3: I stand by them.
25:23
Speaker 4: I will always stand by them. Everybody else can go
25:26
Speaker 4: to hell.
25:32
Speaker 13: She literally, literally in the space of ten seconds, went
25:36
Speaker 13: from the Michelle Obama when they go low, we go
25:39
Speaker 13: high from I will always lead with love, Love will win,
25:44
Speaker 13: and kindness will win to everyone.
25:47
Speaker 3: Can go to Hell.
25:48
Speaker 2: Incredible performance there from Stephanie White. You know what, if
25:52
Speaker 2: she really had her players back, she may have said
25:54
Speaker 2: something about these next two. These are New York Times
25:58
Speaker 2: journalists Madeline here Bill and Charlotte Wilda, who launched this
26:03
Speaker 2: un hinged attack against Sophie Cunningham because she did stand
26:07
Speaker 2: up for women.
26:08
Speaker 11: Sophie Cunningham has just continued to fan the flames here. Yeah,
26:14
Speaker 11: and she most recently posed with Riley Gaines, who was
26:21
Speaker 11: a swimmer, not even a very good one, who is
26:24
Speaker 11: super anti trans women in sports.
26:27
Speaker 14: I just think that she knows what she's doing, and
26:31
Speaker 14: she knows that ultimately her basketball career is only going
26:36
Speaker 14: to be so long. She's not the best player, she's not.
26:41
Speaker 14: Oh great, now we have another mouthpiece that can distract
26:44
Speaker 14: from all these other things that we're doing that are horrific,
26:46
Speaker 14: like snatching people off the street and murdering people on
26:50
Speaker 14: the street.
26:51
Speaker 3: There you go.
26:52
Speaker 2: No one heights a strong woman more than wake self
26:55
Speaker 2: loathing leftist women. Now let's go to this beautiful bit
26:59
Speaker 2: of footage from NBC where their election analysts can't hide
27:03
Speaker 2: his disgust.
27:04
Speaker 3: His disappointment is out.
27:06
Speaker 2: Of disdain for the flawed electoral process. Look how he
27:10
Speaker 2: reacts when he learns about missing Milwaukee us B sticks.
27:15
Speaker 15: I guess the exact thing, yes, is if five of
27:17
Speaker 15: the USB sticks were missing results from the election, so
27:21
Speaker 15: then they have to go try to regrab them. All
27:30
Speaker 15: the folks behind the scenes are talking about this as well,
27:32
Speaker 15: so we can ASKO. Look, it's unfortunate the folks by
27:37
Speaker 15: the scenes here you're saying.
27:38
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, he's properly thinking.
27:40
Speaker 2: How can I analyze this revelation without sounding like a
27:44
Speaker 2: Trump supporter advocating for election integrity. Let's bring in documentary
27:49
Speaker 2: filmmaker and commentator Army Horowitz. Army, the electoral process in
27:55
Speaker 2: the States is flawed. There is too much room for shenanigans.
28:01
Speaker 2: What are the chances that the Save America Act will
28:04
Speaker 2: become law?
28:06
Speaker 6: And by the way, that was a really incredible piece
28:09
Speaker 6: of footage to watch. I mean really you can see
28:11
Speaker 6: the real time that frustration that he had. Look, the
28:15
Speaker 6: Act is on life support unfortunately, and I just I
28:19
Speaker 6: need Democrats to better explain to me what their issue
28:22
Speaker 6: is with this thing. It's really unbelievable. They're pushing back
28:25
Speaker 6: against something that makes so much sense. Look, there are
28:30
Speaker 6: nothing is more existential to this country than the faith
28:35
Speaker 6: that people have in our voting process. And when you
28:38
Speaker 6: take that away, you have real, significant problems. You hollow
28:42
Speaker 6: out the faith and integrity of the tooral process. We
28:47
Speaker 6: have a real problem on our hand. And whether or
28:49
Speaker 6: not it be perception or reality. Really isn't actually even
28:53
Speaker 6: that important because the perception is what matters. That's what
28:56
Speaker 6: ends up bringing people and having people get upset and
28:59
Speaker 6: become skeptical about whether or not their votes count. Look,
29:02
Speaker 6: we just recently had this revelation that six this was
29:06
Speaker 6: admitted by the New Jersey government, six thousand people were
29:09
Speaker 6: non citizens were put on their voter rules. This is
29:13
Speaker 6: a problem. The DHS also recently said that they calculated
29:17
Speaker 6: a quarter of a million people between New Jersey and California, Nevada,
29:23
Speaker 6: and Pennsylvania were added nonseniensive voting roles. And what was
29:29
Speaker 6: incredible was to watch the Democrats push back on that.
29:32
Speaker 6: They didn't say, Okay, this is a massive problem. Let's
29:34
Speaker 6: find a way to fix it together. They said, well,
29:37
Speaker 6: that's probably an exaggerated number. There's some false positives. Maybe
29:41
Speaker 6: it's ninety percent to fifty percent true.
29:45
Speaker 3: I don't know.
29:45
Speaker 6: I'm not good at math rita and I was told
29:47
Speaker 6: to be no math in this interview. But fifty percent
29:51
Speaker 6: is still over one hundred thousand people who are the
29:54
Speaker 6: voting roles between those four states alone. And when you're
29:58
Speaker 6: talking about how Wisconsin and the last presidential election was
30:02
Speaker 6: one by less than thirty thousand votes. You need to
30:06
Speaker 6: explain to me how this is not a problem. Okay,
30:09
Speaker 6: And by the way, the valhalla of all these Democrats
30:12
Speaker 6: is why can we be more like Europe? Let's be
30:13
Speaker 6: more like Europe, Europe Europe. Well, guess what in Europe
30:17
Speaker 6: the vast majority of all EU countries have voter ide laws.
30:21
Speaker 6: So I don't get the issue. I just don't.
30:26
Speaker 2: Well, you've got to think if this is hugely popular
30:29
Speaker 2: across the political spectrum.
30:31
Speaker 3: We've talked about this before.
30:33
Speaker 2: Majority of Democrat voters want voter id, majority of Republican
30:37
Speaker 2: voters wanted So why are the Democrats so staunch against this?
30:42
Speaker 2: There must be some benefit to them. Why else would
30:45
Speaker 2: you fight for a policy that is a policy position
30:48
Speaker 2: that is so unpopular. But yeah, I think you're right.
30:51
Speaker 2: I think this Save America Act is on life support.
30:55
Speaker 2: Now we are going to get to some serious geopolitical
30:58
Speaker 2: matters shortly, but to first play you a couple of
31:01
Speaker 2: clips of a fantastic interview with Secretary of State Micro
31:04
Speaker 2: Rubio his wife Jeanette. This was with Katie Miller for
31:08
Speaker 2: her podcast. Now you better hope Marco is getting plenty
31:12
Speaker 2: of cabs and sugar or Paraguay could be in jeopardy.
31:17
Speaker 16: At one time, maybe four or five years ago, I
31:20
Speaker 16: tried this thing called keto. You've heard of it, yes, ka,
31:23
Speaker 16: And you just eat all this protein and so you
31:25
Speaker 16: go through this massive withdrawal from sugar and carbohydrates for
31:28
Speaker 16: the first seventy two hours. It was a near psychotic event.
31:33
Speaker 16: I did this in this job. I would mean, mister President,
31:36
Speaker 16: we must bomb you know, you know Paraguay.
31:38
Speaker 1: And it's like why, I don't know.
31:39
Speaker 16: I'm just really mad. I haven't had any sugar.
31:41
Speaker 2: So and the discussion around food was not limited to
31:45
Speaker 2: Mico Rubio's brief experience with Kito.
31:49
Speaker 3: Here he is asked about Robert F. Kennedy Junior is
31:52
Speaker 3: a strict diet.
31:54
Speaker 11: The Vice president says, you have a big sweet tooth.
31:56
Speaker 11: I assume you haven't adopted RFK diet of red meat
32:00
Speaker 11: crazy diet.
32:01
Speaker 16: This is a diet that consists of eating sauer kraut
32:06
Speaker 16: and meat. Now you understand, like this is not a
32:09
Speaker 16: sustainable thing, Like you can't just walk into it. Can
32:13
Speaker 16: you imagine? He has to travel with coolers of I'm
32:17
Speaker 16: not going to travel the world with a cooler full
32:18
Speaker 16: of sauerkraut.
32:19
Speaker 1: It's ridiculous.
32:20
Speaker 16: I can't do it.
32:21
Speaker 3: It's not sustainable, are you Maha?
32:23
Speaker 16: I'm in favor of Maha, Like I think people should
32:25
Speaker 16: be help, but I think ultimately.
32:28
Speaker 3: Completely you know, I want to eat pop Tarts.
32:31
Speaker 16: No, I don't need pop tarts every day.
32:33
Speaker 1: Okay, you eat sweets.
32:34
Speaker 16: Pop Tart is one of the great American innovations.
32:37
Speaker 12: Me.
32:37
Speaker 2: Katie Miller did a fantastic job there.
32:41
Speaker 3: What did you learn from that interview?
32:43
Speaker 2: Because there were very serious issues discussed as well, but
32:46
Speaker 2: I did love those lighter moments. Really showed Marco Rubio
32:51
Speaker 2: and his wife and they may be the first family
32:54
Speaker 2: one day Army.
32:56
Speaker 6: Yeah, President Rubio, I'm sorry, I mean Secretary Rubio, I apologize.
33:02
Speaker 6: What is wrong with the eating habits of this White House?
33:05
Speaker 6: The president only eats fast food, Okay. Kennedy is eating
33:10
Speaker 6: the baseball diet, eating saur kraut and beef, right, that's
33:14
Speaker 6: what he's doing.
33:15
Speaker 3: And of course cool is full of saur kraft.
33:18
Speaker 6: Yeah, that is insane. I'm sorry, that is unhinged. Okay.
33:23
Speaker 6: By the way, I love a good fermented cabbage. Okay,
33:27
Speaker 6: with some steak, no question about it. But he's traveling
33:30
Speaker 6: with that.
33:30
Speaker 1: It's crazy.
33:31
Speaker 6: And Secretary Rubio, Marco Rubio was eating pop tarts. What
33:34
Speaker 6: is with this ministration and food? It's crazy.
33:39
Speaker 3: It is a bit out there. And yeah, cooler is
33:42
Speaker 3: full of saur kraut.
33:44
Speaker 2: Possibly not practical, but you want to say rfk Junior,
33:47
Speaker 2: with his busy schedule, manages to keep up that diet. Now,
33:51
Speaker 2: we learned earlier today that after more than twenty year presents,
33:55
Speaker 2: the US is going to be withdrawing its last troops
33:58
Speaker 2: from Iraq by September thirty am. The US military has
34:03
Speaker 2: been in that country since the two thousand and three
34:06
Speaker 2: invasion that toppled Saddam Hussein.
34:09
Speaker 3: Tell me about the timing of this withdrawal.
34:13
Speaker 6: Yeah, we're going from pop tarts to geopolitical threats. Don't
34:16
Speaker 6: tell me. I don't have rans Rita okay, Yeah, Iraq okay.
34:22
Speaker 6: Obviously Iran is the greater threat, and obviously this withdrawal
34:26
Speaker 6: is in a sense of reflection of that. And by
34:30
Speaker 6: the way, in terms of why we were there to
34:32
Speaker 6: begin with, keep in mind that we were asked, we
34:34
Speaker 6: were invited by the Iraqi government to come back into
34:38
Speaker 6: Iraq because of the threat of Islamic State of ISIS
34:42
Speaker 6: and that the president, this president did an absolutely incredible
34:47
Speaker 6: job in his first term wiping out Islamic State when
34:51
Speaker 6: no one else could do it. They laughed. I remember
34:54
Speaker 6: there was a whole Saturday Night Life skit when when
34:56
Speaker 6: the President said the first thing I'm gonna do is
34:58
Speaker 6: wipe out ISIS. There's a whole skit. How was he
35:00
Speaker 6: going to do it? He has no idea, right, And
35:02
Speaker 6: that's exactly what he did within the first basically the
35:04
Speaker 6: first year of his administration. So they're no longer a
35:08
Speaker 6: massive threat. And I think that our Kurdish allies and
35:11
Speaker 6: the Iraqi allies can do a lot of the cleanup
35:13
Speaker 6: that is necessary for Islamic State in Syria in Iraq.
35:16
Speaker 6: But I think that what we've done there is the
35:19
Speaker 6: main threat there, the Islamic the Iranian based militias that
35:24
Speaker 6: are still in Iraq, and that was kind of the
35:27
Speaker 6: main threat that the Iraqi State and the American troops
35:29
Speaker 6: have to combat. But we have done an incredibly good
35:32
Speaker 6: job training their soldiers, building up their military infrastructure for
35:36
Speaker 6: this exact thing to be able to deal with this
35:39
Speaker 6: threat on their own. And I expect that they will.
35:42
Speaker 6: I think what you're going to see is you're going
35:44
Speaker 6: to see the troop replacement, the troops being replaced by
35:47
Speaker 6: these economic and security bilateral agreements, and that's far more robust,
35:53
Speaker 6: far more important, and will withstand the test of time
35:56
Speaker 6: than American troops there. I think what we've done an
35:58
Speaker 6: incredible job there as well. And I also want to
36:00
Speaker 6: point out that had the difference between this and Afghanistan.
36:04
Speaker 6: Right in Afghanistan there was no plan and Afghanistan we
36:07
Speaker 6: left a state that was in complete disarray, which is
36:10
Speaker 6: retaken within days by the Islamic radicals of Afghanistan. This
36:14
Speaker 6: is a completely different situation. As opposed to Afghanistan, we
36:18
Speaker 6: have built up the Iraqi military and economic infrastructure for
36:23
Speaker 6: them to deal with the stuff on their own. Additionally,
36:25
Speaker 6: we have really had we have a partner with the PERSHMEGA,
36:29
Speaker 6: we have a partner with the Kurds who've done a
36:31
Speaker 6: great job assisting us these issues. So I feel confident that, yes,
36:35
Speaker 6: the timing, one could argue the timing with happening to the
36:38
Speaker 6: Iran now, but ultimately this is what we would have
36:40
Speaker 6: to have been done. I think he's done a great
36:42
Speaker 6: job in I rock.
36:44
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, you're so right about the contrast with Afghanistan,
36:48
Speaker 2: that chaotic we draw under the Biden administration, hundreds of
36:53
Speaker 2: millions of dollars of equipment, arms left to the Taliban
36:58
Speaker 2: who took over the country within days. It really was
37:02
Speaker 2: just one of the lowest points in American foreign policy. Now,
37:07
Speaker 2: before you go, we've heard today that White House pres
37:09
Speaker 2: Secretary Caroline Leavitt is going to be departing her role
37:13
Speaker 2: at the end of the month. She wants to spend
37:15
Speaker 2: more time with her young family. She's got two children
37:18
Speaker 2: under two years of age. This is a crucial position
37:22
Speaker 2: in the administration army. How are they going to go,
37:26
Speaker 2: particularly leading up to the mid terms with a newbie
37:30
Speaker 2: in that role. I know they've got a few candidates,
37:32
Speaker 2: but it is a role she has served remarkably well,
37:37
Speaker 2: despite the fact that she is young. She's under thirty
37:41
Speaker 2: when she took that role.
37:42
Speaker 6: Yeah, she was twenty seven. And yeah, look, obviously it
37:47
Speaker 6: is look the most front facing White House position that exists.
37:53
Speaker 6: Like you said, it's an absolutely crucial role. And by
37:56
Speaker 6: the way, it takes time for somebody, even to somebody
37:59
Speaker 6: who like her, it takes time to get to speed,
38:02
Speaker 6: get your sea legs under you. It's not something you
38:04
Speaker 6: jump into. Even initially when she first had the job,
38:06
Speaker 6: I thought, you know, she she did.
38:08
Speaker 12: She didn't.
38:08
Speaker 6: She had some moments that were great, some moments that
38:10
Speaker 6: were not so great. It takes time to grown that role.
38:14
Speaker 6: With the midterm elections, I think the timing might be
38:16
Speaker 6: a little bit off, But look, I think the president
38:19
Speaker 6: is a big bench, a large bench, a significant bench
38:22
Speaker 6: of people who can take over that job. But I understand,
38:25
Speaker 6: Look it is. It is one of the most incredibly
38:27
Speaker 6: demanding jobs that exist in the White House. I've had
38:32
Speaker 6: friends in that role and friends of supported that role.
38:34
Speaker 6: And you're up before six am, and you get home
38:38
Speaker 6: no earlier than seven or eight. Sometimes you're there till midnight,
38:40
Speaker 6: sometimes all night. It is stressful and demanding intellectually and
38:45
Speaker 6: on your body. So people tend not to last particularly
38:49
Speaker 6: long in those roles. And you know, I think it
38:53
Speaker 6: was also curious, as you know, she said she wanted
38:55
Speaker 6: to leave and spend time with more time they're very
38:57
Speaker 6: young children. Now, I was watching CNN and I had
38:59
Speaker 6: this whole thing about this pushing of tradwives, great traditional
39:02
Speaker 6: wives in the White house, but you know, demeaning people
39:07
Speaker 6: want to play that role. And I was like, God,
39:08
Speaker 6: what is wrong with you people? You know, here's somebody
39:11
Speaker 6: who is an ultimate professional, right, She's been in the workforce,
39:15
Speaker 6: continues to be in the workforce, and you're demeaning her
39:18
Speaker 6: role and want to go spend time with their family.
39:20
Speaker 1: What is wrong with these people?
39:21
Speaker 6: And by the one last point I mentioned about Kennedy,
39:24
Speaker 6: I've got to say, though, yes, I think is it is?
39:27
Speaker 6: He's got this crazy day, But I got to say,
39:29
Speaker 6: the man looks good. So who am I to say?
39:31
Speaker 3: Right, Armie? The haters can get stuff.
39:34
Speaker 2: She has done an incredible job, and of course she
39:37
Speaker 2: wants to spend time with her children with the crazy
39:39
Speaker 2: hours that that job requires. And some of those press
39:43
Speaker 2: secretaries have gone on to great things. In Trump's first term,
39:46
Speaker 2: he had Sarah Hukabie Sanders and she's now the governor
39:50
Speaker 2: of the great state of Arkansas. Me Horrowitz, thank you
39:53
Speaker 2: so much for your time tonight.
39:55
Speaker 6: That's mind.
39:55
Speaker 3: Thank you still to come.
39:57
Speaker 2: Rosie o'donald tattoos her child pronouns on her wrist. Kimsisco
40:03
Speaker 2: Phil will have all your entertainment and royal news.
40:14
Speaker 3: Welcome back.
40:16
Speaker 1: Well.
40:16
Speaker 2: Rosie o'donald is still in Trump's America. I missed the
40:19
Speaker 2: days when she was saying insane things from Ireland, you know,
40:22
Speaker 2: the country she fled to when Donald Trump was elected again.
40:26
Speaker 2: But she's back in the US doing any podcast that
40:29
Speaker 2: will have her, and on Amy Pohler's Portty this week,
40:33
Speaker 2: she made this shock ad mission that when her daughter
40:36
Speaker 2: decided to identify as a pluralal a they them, Rosie
40:41
Speaker 2: got a tattoo to mark the occasion so she'd never forget.
40:46
Speaker 12: When I would they first told me that it was
40:48
Speaker 12: they them. I tried my best, but I kept saying
40:52
Speaker 12: she and so I took her to my cousin's tattoosha
40:55
Speaker 12: with the they in her handwriting, and I had it
40:58
Speaker 12: tattooed on my wrist. I would never forget that it
41:01
Speaker 12: would remind me, and I thought she'd be very touched.
41:04
Speaker 12: And she didn't give too She could not care less.
41:08
Speaker 2: Then I just said she I just did it again,
41:12
Speaker 2: joining me now is host of the Kinsey Schofield Unfiltered podcast.
41:17
Speaker 3: Kinsey, I don't even know what to say anymore.
41:22
Speaker 17: I'm old fashioned. I use post it notes, not permanent ink.
41:26
Speaker 17: I do, though I miss when movie stars had mystique.
41:30
Speaker 17: We knew what they wore to the oscars, not every
41:32
Speaker 17: thought that entered their head. Rosie has become especially guilty
41:36
Speaker 17: of oversharing lately. It's a perpetual audition for what we
41:39
Speaker 17: don't know. At this point, everything I've learned about Rosie
41:42
Speaker 17: o'donald is against my will.
41:44
Speaker 3: But to your point, she's back.
41:46
Speaker 17: Apparently Ireland wasn't in the market for a you know,
41:50
Speaker 17: fresh faced, sixty four year old woman with Trump rangement syndrome,
41:55
Speaker 17: so it does look like she's looking for work. Otherwise
41:58
Speaker 17: they can't justify how much she's in our face lately.
42:03
Speaker 3: No, and I do also miss the days when she would.
42:06
Speaker 2: Tell us about her therapist advising her to stop obsessing
42:12
Speaker 2: and posting about Donald Trump, and she could not. She
42:15
Speaker 2: even went on here to say I'm going to stop,
42:18
Speaker 2: and I think she lasted twenty four hours.
42:20
Speaker 3: She cannot help herself now.
42:22
Speaker 2: Bill Gates' daughter Phoebe has been accused of cookie stuffing
42:26
Speaker 2: at her multi billion dollar startup Fear Cookie stuffing involves
42:31
Speaker 2: dropping more web cookies than it should, taking undue credit
42:36
Speaker 2: for online sales and retail partners Kinsey tell me about this.
42:41
Speaker 3: It sounds like it's just.
42:42
Speaker 2: A business practice, but it's an illicit business practice and
42:46
Speaker 2: comes with huge penalties.
42:50
Speaker 17: So basically, yeah, she's it's like when you post a
42:54
Speaker 17: link because you're going to get some sort of commission,
42:57
Speaker 17: you know, for what you're and you post a link
43:01
Speaker 17: and you get x amount of commission based on how
43:03
Speaker 17: many people shop your closet. It's something to that effect,
43:06
Speaker 17: except us on a grand entrepreneurial scale, because she's Phoebe
43:10
Speaker 17: freaking Gates, and we expect her to have some moral
43:14
Speaker 17: clarity considering the fact that you know, her dad had
43:17
Speaker 17: such a huge hand in the development of the web.
43:22
Speaker 17: But we are in the accusation sphace. Nothing's been proven yet.
43:28
Speaker 17: It's an extraordinarily adorable name for an allegation with potentially
43:32
Speaker 17: very serious consequences, like twenty years.
43:34
Speaker 3: Will she actually face them?
43:36
Speaker 17: Probably not when your dad's bill Gates, But you know,
43:40
Speaker 17: she doesn't need the money, which makes this story even
43:43
Speaker 17: more bizarre, taking credit for things she didn't do and
43:47
Speaker 17: basically patting her resume, patting her success so she looked
43:52
Speaker 17: more appealing to investors and to people that might want
43:56
Speaker 17: to throw her on the cover of Entrepreneur magazine.
44:00
Speaker 2: Now, we spoke earlier in the week about some of
44:03
Speaker 2: the strange rules Howard Stern's staffers had to follow while
44:07
Speaker 2: working under the famed radio host. Now insiders have told
44:11
Speaker 2: The Sun newspaper that female employees were not allowed to
44:15
Speaker 2: wear sneakers into the office, but male employees could.
44:20
Speaker 3: Kids. This is outrageous.
44:22
Speaker 2: They were reportedly instructed to have certain shoes at the
44:26
Speaker 2: ready in case higher up executives walk through the office, right.
44:32
Speaker 17: I mean, Howard Stern spent decades presenting himself as the
44:35
Speaker 17: great rebel against corporate America, and apparently behind the scenes
44:38
Speaker 17: he was running the Devil Wears Prada for a dude
44:42
Speaker 17: who built his career offending absolutely everybody. He apparently draws
44:47
Speaker 17: the line at women wearing comfortable footwear. So shark shocks
44:50
Speaker 17: are fine, but shark crocs are not. Nope, that's against
44:54
Speaker 17: the rules.
44:56
Speaker 3: You know what.
44:56
Speaker 2: I don't have a problem with a workplace imposing those
44:59
Speaker 2: sort of dress code saying no sneakers, no genes, whatever,
45:02
Speaker 2: But you can't just apply it to one gender.
45:05
Speaker 3: I mean, come on, that is just out of bounds.
45:08
Speaker 3: This story took me by surprise.
45:10
Speaker 2: The Daily Mail reporting that Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston
45:15
Speaker 2: are secretly talking again, perhaps more than talking. The former
45:19
Speaker 2: Golden couple divorced in two thousand and five after seven
45:23
Speaker 2: years together. Kinsey Wansl said that Brad Pitt has been
45:27
Speaker 2: popping up on the Morning show set at least once
45:30
Speaker 2: a week for a standing lunch date. In Jennifer Aniston's trailer,
45:36
Speaker 2: what do you say to that?
45:38
Speaker 17: I mean, twenty one years later and we're still trying
45:40
Speaker 17: to put Brad and Jen back together. We America, We're
45:44
Speaker 17: the clinging acts. You know, this is a weird story
45:47
Speaker 17: because we're also seeing Jen with her current boyfriend, the
45:50
Speaker 17: weirdo hypnotherapist and life coach who can't even pay us rent,
45:55
Speaker 17: but he's going to coach us in life. Brad also
45:57
Speaker 17: seems crazy about his gorgeous jewelry design girlfriend who saw
46:01
Speaker 17: We saw him recently with her at the World Cup.
46:06
Speaker 3: So I don't know what to believe. Do I think
46:09
Speaker 3: the public would welcome such a reunion?
46:11
Speaker 1: I do.
46:11
Speaker 17: Do I think Brad deserves a second chance?
46:14
Speaker 3: Absolutely not.
46:16
Speaker 2: I'm one hundred percent there with you and just on
46:19
Speaker 2: Jen Aniston's latest flame, Tell me about the concerns her
46:26
Speaker 2: friendship group has about this character, because you're right, his
46:30
Speaker 2: net worth is basically nothing. That were recently holidaying on
46:35
Speaker 2: a yacht that was reportedly costing about half a million
46:38
Speaker 2: a week. I mean he's living a lifestyle that is
46:41
Speaker 2: completely out of his reach.
46:44
Speaker 17: I mean, yes, maybe he does believe in manifestation because
46:48
Speaker 17: he manifested Jennifer Aniston and we all are amazed at that.
46:52
Speaker 17: But he's had trouble paying his rent in New York City.
46:56
Speaker 17: I believe he had to give up his apartment.
46:58
Speaker 3: In New York City.
47:00
Speaker 17: He really was. She put him on the map. There
47:03
Speaker 17: are people that are literally taking this guy seriously, and
47:08
Speaker 17: he has this credibility now that he didn't have before
47:11
Speaker 17: because of Jennifer Aniston and his friends are her friends
47:15
Speaker 17: are saying, is she your sugar daddy?
47:17
Speaker 3: What are you doing for her?
47:19
Speaker 17: Are you using our friend? And there are real concerns
47:22
Speaker 17: about what he actually brings to the table in this relationship.
47:28
Speaker 1: Now.
47:28
Speaker 2: Meghan Markel appears to have been snubbed by David Foster.
47:32
Speaker 2: In a viral red carpet moment, Meghan appears to reach
47:37
Speaker 2: out her arm to him, but he walks straight past her.
47:42
Speaker 2: He then joins the photo and gives Harry a smile, Kinsey,
47:45
Speaker 2: are people reading too much into this? I think sometimes
47:48
Speaker 2: with when it comes to Meghan, they're just wanting for
47:52
Speaker 2: her to fail because well, she's so unlikable.
47:57
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm totally with you.
47:58
Speaker 17: I'm usually perfectly happy to criticize Meghan Markel, but I
48:02
Speaker 17: disagree with this internet observation. That does not look like
48:04
Speaker 17: an attempted handshack. To me, Meghan looks like an air
48:07
Speaker 17: traffic controller trying to land David faster. In the group photo,
48:11
Speaker 17: she's gesturing towards the photo. He walks into the photo,
48:14
Speaker 17: and then he smiles at Harry. There are plenty of
48:17
Speaker 17: legitimate awkward Megan Markel moments. I don't want to manufacture one.
48:22
Speaker 17: If anything, Meghan looks like she's directing traffic. She's one
48:26
Speaker 17: fluorescent vest away from working ballet. That's how I feel
48:29
Speaker 17: when I watch this video, Kinsey.
48:33
Speaker 2: Before you go, TMZ's reporting that Sean Diddy Combs has
48:36
Speaker 2: been released from solitary confinement following his alleged prison brawl.
48:41
Speaker 2: It's unclear whether Diddy will face any additional time from
48:45
Speaker 2: this fight, Kinsey, can you tell me about this case.
48:50
Speaker 2: Is the investigation into this whole ordeal over? Because we
48:54
Speaker 2: were told there were some very rich and powerful people
48:58
Speaker 2: participating in these free Cough parts and there's been no
49:01
Speaker 2: other arrests.
49:03
Speaker 17: I think if we contacted those investigators, they would tell
49:06
Speaker 17: us it's an active investigation, so they can't comment on it.
49:09
Speaker 17: Do I believe it's still an active investigation. I really don't.
49:13
Speaker 17: I think that they've kind of, you know, shut the
49:15
Speaker 17: books on this, and Diddy is the one that's taken
49:19
Speaker 17: the brunt of it, and that's not even very much.
49:22
Speaker 17: I mean, his release date keeps inching closer and closer,
49:26
Speaker 17: So I think you're going to have a lot of
49:28
Speaker 17: people upset the day he is released, because we're going
49:31
Speaker 17: to look at each other and say, what.
49:33
Speaker 3: About that little Black book?
49:34
Speaker 17: What about all of those celebrities we heard that participated
49:38
Speaker 17: in this too? Is anybody going to get justice here?
49:43
Speaker 2: Kinsiscofield, thank you so much for your time tonight, and
49:47
Speaker 2: that's it from May Up next it's late edition.
49:50
Speaker 3: Goodnight,
