  Speaker 2: This is the Reader Panalty Show.

  Speaker 3: Good evening and welcome to the Rita Panehy Show. I'm
• 0:11
  Speaker 3: Cali Marcus filling in for RITA coming up tonight. Alban
• 0:15
  Speaker 3: EASi stood up by Trump at the G seven.
• 0:18
  Speaker 4: I'll bring you all the latest with my panel.
• 0:20
  Speaker 3: In a moment a university academic stood down after calling
• 0:25
  Speaker 3: for Zionists to be executed. New South Wales Liberal MP
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: Chris Rath joins me with the details and of course
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: left he's losing it, featuring this totally sane individual.
• 0:38
  Speaker 5: No, no, god boy good.
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: But let's begin with Prime Minister Anthony Alberzi being blind
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: sided after US President Donald Trump decided to leave the
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: G seven early and before they'd had a chance to meet,
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: without any warning to Australia. It follows weeks of will
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: they won't they speculation about a first face to face
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: meeting between the pair, where the Orchist deal was due
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: to be the.
• 1:09
  Speaker 4: Main topic of discussion.
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: Now there are concerns over the future of the Defense
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: packed as the US conducts its review into the agreement,
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: led by prominent Orcers skeptic Trump's under Secretary of Defense
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: Policy Elbridge Colby, but there was a glimmer of hope
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: during Trump's joint appearance with the UK Prime Minister Keth Starmer,
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: where he indicated the deal would proceed.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: Yep, we're proceeding with that.
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: It's a really important deal to both of this.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: I think the person that was doing a review, we
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: did a review when we came into government, so that
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: makes good sense to me. But it's a really important
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: We're very long time partners and allies and friends, and
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: we've become friends in a short period of time.
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: Joining me now for the latest on this is the
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: Deputy executive director at the Institute of Public Affairs, Daniel
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: Wild and News Corps senior Patrick Carline.
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: Thank you both of you. Now, Dan, it was.
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: A bit embarrassing, I think for Albanizi to be stood
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: up by Trump just minutes after he'd confirmed to media
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: that he'd secured a meeting, and reportedly with no prior
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: notice to Australian officials.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right.
• 2:20
  Speaker 6: I've got to say, Caroline that that's a clip you
• 2:22
  Speaker 6: displayed of Keir Starmer and Donald Trump didn't fill me
• 2:25
  Speaker 6: with a ton of confidence. They didn't seem all that
• 2:27
  Speaker 6: invested in ucast, but we'll see what happens there.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: But look, I think you're right. The issue here is it.
• 2:33
  Speaker 6: Appears to be the case that Anthony Albanesi is not
• 2:36
  Speaker 6: really taken seriously on the international stage and is not
• 2:40
  Speaker 6: really respected, and that would be a concern for the
• 2:44
  Speaker 6: government here. There are some within labor who have a
• 2:48
  Speaker 6: relatively cavalier attitude towards the United States, and some of
• 2:52
  Speaker 6: whom are actively hostile towards the Trump administration.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: And whether you like Trump or not is beside.
• 2:58
  Speaker 6: The point is obviously our most important ally and so
• 3:03
  Speaker 6: I think there's probably a sense from the United States
• 3:05
  Speaker 6: that perhaps the current government here in Australia is not
• 3:09
  Speaker 6: as committed and as serious as it should be about
• 3:12
  Speaker 6: that defense relationship.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: So I think that explains why Trump.
• 3:16
  Speaker 6: Has basically stood up Anthony Alberizi on this occasion.
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: Part Dan says he's not so confident judging by those
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: comments from the joint press conference, but Albanezy says that
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: he found those comments very positive. What do you think
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: do you think the Orcast deal is secure?
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: Look, it needs to be secure, Caroline, doesn't it. I mean,
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: this is such a fundamental part of our future in
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: terms of defending ourselves and in terms of our best
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: friend in America, as Dan says, America is our best friend,
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: Donald Trump, or otherwise we need America. And the fact
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: that this meeting hasn't taken place, I don't think you
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: can blame Elbow for that. It was beyond his control.
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: But we're sort of looking at or perhaps later in
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: the year before Elbow will actually catch up with Donald
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: Trump and have a chat. I mean, it does seem ridiculous.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: It's given you've got Orcus on the table at the moment,
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: and it's under a review in the US, and you've
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: got tariffs. You've got these really nation changing sort of
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: issues at stake at the moment. That does need to
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: be a meeting.
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Dan pat mentions tariffs. That was going to be
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: another big part of this conversation. That's face to face
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: conversation between the pair. What happens now with that? I
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: mean everyone's talking about UCUS, but what happens with tariffs.
• 4:34
  Speaker 6: Well, I think the thing with tariffs is, yeah, I mean,
• 4:36
  Speaker 6: we should have a talk with them and see if
• 4:38
  Speaker 6: we can have a different arrangement, but we should focus
• 4:40
  Speaker 6: on our own backyard first. I mean, the negative economic
• 4:44
  Speaker 6: implications of the policies that we are imposing upon ourselves
• 4:47
  Speaker 6: are far worse than anything the United States is doing.
• 4:50
  Speaker 6: I mean, always you have to do is look at
• 4:51
  Speaker 6: our energy policy and policies like net zero, which are
• 4:54
  Speaker 6: causing massive increases to energy prices and smashing our industrial sector,
• 4:59
  Speaker 6: or the regulation of red tape that's coming out of Camber.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: And state government.
• 5:03
  Speaker 6: So I think you know this government has said it
• 5:05
  Speaker 6: wants to have a productivity agenda. Well, the first thing
• 5:08
  Speaker 6: you do is look at your own economic policy settings
• 5:10
  Speaker 6: and as I say, if you can negotiate a better deal,
• 5:13
  Speaker 6: go for it. But let's focus on the things that
• 5:15
  Speaker 6: we can control.
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: Going back to that Orca's on certain uncertainty, there have
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: been calls for a backup plan. Here's National's MP Barnaby
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: Joyce earlier today.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: You should have a contingency plan.
• 5:28
  Speaker 7: We like when as soon as the United States went
• 5:30
  Speaker 7: out and said we're reviewing.
• 5:32
  Speaker 8: Orcas, Blambelle should have rung everywhere everywhere pad.
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: Is he right? Do we need a contingency plan? Now?
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: Look, there seems to me sort of confidence guided or
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: not on the fact that ORCUS is safe within Australia.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: You say the comments from South Australia's premier yesterday talking
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: about the fact that we need to build submarines, and
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: he's right. I mean, the world has been compared to
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: the nine ends thirties in terms of uncertainty. This could
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: be a precursor for the next sort of world war
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: of your life. You've got all these conflicts going on.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: We need to be able to protect ourselves and you
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: look at those Chinese military exercises off the coast just
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: late last year. We're not well placed to defend ourselves
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: and the world is going to pivot of that, we
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: have no doubt. So we need submarines, we need orcus
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: and we need that to be crystal clear and locked
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: in for decades to come. So in terms of contingencies,
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: I don't know whether that's the right way to go,
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: but we certainly need to protect our future.
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: Well, gentlemen, there's a hidden twist.
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: In Albanizi in the Albanese government's new super tax, and it's.
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: Been brought to light.
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: Treasurer Jim Chalmers plan also includes a hidden death tax
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: of sorts, with those who inherit super from someone who's
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: died face a double taxting, where unused tax credits will lapse,
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: capital gains taxes remain in place. Dan, what do you
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: think of this idea? It hardly seems fair.
• 7:09
  Speaker 6: Well, I agree, Carolina is not fair, and it shows
• 7:12
  Speaker 6: what happens when you're spending is out of control and
• 7:16
  Speaker 6: there's no plan to reign in government spending.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: And if there's no.
• 7:19
  Speaker 6: Plan to reign in spending, then taxes will need to
• 7:22
  Speaker 6: go up and debt will continue to go up, which
• 7:24
  Speaker 6: is just taxes.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: In the future.
• 7:27
  Speaker 6: So my concern here is ultimately that labor is going
• 7:31
  Speaker 6: to go to the electric with much higher taxes including
• 7:34
  Speaker 6: I mean, really the worst part about this is the
• 7:36
  Speaker 6: unrealized gains component, which means you're going to get taxed
• 7:40
  Speaker 6: on income that you have yet to earn, and that
• 7:43
  Speaker 6: is one of the most concerning parts of it. So look,
• 7:45
  Speaker 6: I think the more that this goes on and the
• 7:47
  Speaker 6: more the debate goes on, the worse this looks for
• 7:50
  Speaker 6: our country, and the worse it.
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: Looks for labor pat death taxes.
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: I mean, for a long time, the opposition, the Coalition
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: has been talking about them about how it something that's
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: in Labour's plans. They've denied it for a long time,
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: but this certainly looks like they're starting to creep in here.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: Absolutely, and look at the second death tax. If you
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: like Carolina, I mean most Australians don't realize if you
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: inherit super generally there's going to be a seventeen percent
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: tax on at least part of that super. This is
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: a second death tax, and that's something that Australians aren't
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: aren't prepared to actually cop I don't think this is
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: a really big issue. And if you look at the
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: mechanics of this tax, you look at three million dollars
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: super and taxes on top of that, and that's not
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: going to be indexed, so in ten twenty thirty years time,
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: it's probably still going to be three million dollars, which
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: is not going to be a great deal of money
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: by that time. It's a really insidious tax, this one.
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: And don't forget the Prime Minister and a lot of
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: minister's own benefits won't get touched. That's probably one of
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: the most compaired parts too. Let's move on to another
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: story now, and disgusted parents have lashed out at a
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: prestigious Melbourne private school over a pride month guest speaker
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: that the school brought in. Trinity Boys Grammar School says
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: it invited queer Palestinian activist ba Sam.
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: Curbage to speak to its students.
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: On the recommendation of the taxpayer funded Victorian Pride Center.
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: According to a parent, Curbage directed students during his speech
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: to look up his social media page, but when they
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: did that, they quickly found a video of him performing
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: a lewd act. Now, the Victorian Pride Center has removed
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: this speaker's profile from its website, and both the center
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: and the school have promised to implement better vetting processes.
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: But Dan, how could the school not have done any
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: basic screening before inviting a controversial speaker like this to
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: speak to children.
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: Oh, the principal's got to be sacked.
• 9:57
  Speaker 6: I mean, this is just an example of how our
• 10:01
  Speaker 6: education system's failing. And if you're a parent and you're
• 10:04
  Speaker 6: concerned about this, change schools stop donating to these so
• 10:09
  Speaker 6: called elite schools, because this is not the only example
• 10:12
  Speaker 6: of this kind of insidious ideology being put in front
• 10:15
  Speaker 6: of children. And I think it's just time to get
• 10:18
  Speaker 6: real about the fact that the only thing that a
• 10:20
  Speaker 6: lot of these private schools. You know, the very elite
• 10:22
  Speaker 6: ones listen to is the bottom line. So you've got
• 10:24
  Speaker 6: to make it hurt. And you know, I just think
• 10:27
  Speaker 6: this is so removed from basic community expectations of what
• 10:31
  Speaker 6: should be taught at schools. By the way, this is
• 10:33
  Speaker 6: happening in the context of a rapidly declining education sector,
• 10:36
  Speaker 6: where governments are spending more and more every single year,
• 10:40
  Speaker 6: yet results continue to go backwards. Children are less educated
• 10:44
  Speaker 6: than in the past, and they're taught not only this
• 10:46
  Speaker 6: kind of ideology, but they're taught to be ashamed of
• 10:49
  Speaker 6: our country, ashamed of our history, and in doing so,
• 10:52
  Speaker 6: ashamed of themselves.
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: So if this isn't a wake up call, I don't
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: know what is.
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: Well.
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: We're going to be looking at some of that those
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: problems within the education sector with my next guest, but Pat,
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: this particular sector also has a history of making some
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: extreme anti Israel statements as well. He describes himself as
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: a queer Palestinian activist. I always find that ironic given
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: what would happen were he to actually be living in Gaza.
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: Absolutely he wouldn't be able to do this in Gaza,
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: And I mean that's the great hypocrisy that we're saying
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: in the universities especially, but also in this case, in
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: secondary schools where it's not being explained properly. The arguments
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: are basically that let's be pro Palestine, but at the
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: same time, let's blow up Israel and make it cease
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: to exist. I mean, this argument pushing for pro Palestine
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: is actually dishonest in the Australian context and has been
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: since October seventeen seven, twenty twenty three. And these sorts
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: of activists shouldn't be anywhere near a school which is
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: charging parents forty grand a pop to send their kids there.
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: It's a Christian school. And the fact that this wasn't
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: looked at closely, that the due diligence wasn't done by
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: the school, is it characteristic That's been true of our
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: universities across the board across Australia. It's a really troubling
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: thing that this school is actually abrogating responsibility for activists
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: addressing their students.
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, really concerning and hopefully a wake up call for
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: schools across the country. Let's check in on the Victorian
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: Liberals now, and the party's state branch has been warned
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: that if it goes ahead with a plan to loan
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: former leader John Persuto the remaining one point five million
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: dollars he needs to pay Moira Deeming, it would lose
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: the support of grassroots members and trigger a mass exodus
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: of donors.
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: Now, Dan, let's not.
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: Forget that this is all about Persudo's own decision and
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: the party in backing him to smear Deeming as an Nazi. Sympathize,
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: but simply speaking at a women's rights rally that just
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: happened to be gay crashed by neo Nazis, I.
• 13:10
  Speaker 6: Agree, and I think the assessment is correct that there
• 13:12
  Speaker 6: would be a revolt of what's remaining of the grassroots
• 13:15
  Speaker 6: of the Liberal Party in Victoria. I on a personal level,
• 13:20
  Speaker 6: sympathize and feel for John Persudo. I mean, he's gone
• 13:22
  Speaker 6: through all kinds of difficulties and yes it's true that
• 13:25
  Speaker 6: he was the instigator of it. But you know, nonetheless,
• 13:27
  Speaker 6: on a personal level, I feel for him. But it
• 13:30
  Speaker 6: is not the job of the Victorian Liberal Party to
• 13:34
  Speaker 6: act like a bank in essentially lending money to a
• 13:38
  Speaker 6: member of Parliament. If people want to contribute to John's
• 13:42
  Speaker 6: situation privately, they're more than welcome to do that. But
• 13:45
  Speaker 6: I certainly don't think the Victorian Liberal Party itself should
• 13:49
  Speaker 6: be footing the bill for this. And as you rightly say,
• 13:51
  Speaker 6: it all comes back to the treatment of more redeeming
• 13:54
  Speaker 6: and there were many many times along this road where
• 13:58
  Speaker 6: the course could have been corrected, decisions taken not to
• 14:01
  Speaker 6: do that, and that's why we are where we.
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: Are exactly So, I have a lot less sympathy for
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: John Persuto than you do down maybe that makes you
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: a better person, but pat is saving Persuto from bankruptcy
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: here and therefore losing his seed and triggering a by
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: election really worth the pain that it will cause to
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: the party in terms of its support from its base
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: and donations if there is an exodus.
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: Look, there is a political imperative here. I mean, as
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: a Victorian, you know, I've suffered, along with everybody else
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: with some of the worst governments mismanaging money since twenty
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: fourteen for a very long time. We actually need a
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: decent opposition, And even though I agree with a lot
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: of what Dana said, there is a political imperative here.
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: We actually need an opposition that is not sucking the
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: oxygen out of the room with its own internal battles.
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: The whole time.
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: We actually need a decent opposition that can actually stand
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: up and offer itself as an alternative dreadful government that
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: we're suffering from from. So I'd like to see the
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: John Prestudo thing go away. Really, you just want it
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: fixed and to go away. Let's move on's let's talk
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: about good governance. Let's talk about policies, because it's been
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: around for I think eight eight months or longer.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: Well.
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: Speaking of mismanagement of finances and Victoria, the Allen Labor
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: government is pushing to acts key budget transparency laws as
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: state data is projected to sor to a whopping one
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: hundred and ninety four billion dollars. In a bill to
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: be debated this week, the government will seek to block
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: a post election budget update from occurring next year and
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: limit executive oversight over the issuing of public money by
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: removing the need for the state governor to approve the
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: drawing down of funds.
• 15:48
  Speaker 4: Dan how sneak he is.
• 15:49
  Speaker 6: This, Well, we're now in the sticking our heads in
• 15:54
  Speaker 6: the sand face of the collapse of the Victorian economy.
• 15:58
  Speaker 6: This is the last thing that is needed. There needs
• 16:00
  Speaker 6: to be full transparency. There are already questions over the
• 16:03
  Speaker 6: veracity of figures that are presented in the Victorian government's budget.
• 16:07
  Speaker 6: Much of their spending items are either outside of the
• 16:09
  Speaker 6: forward estimates or are off budget entirely, so it's difficult
• 16:13
  Speaker 6: to get a clear picture of just.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: How bad things are.
• 16:15
  Speaker 6: But make no mistake about this, this is not just
• 16:18
  Speaker 6: a Victorian issue, because if Victoria's economy goes down, the
• 16:22
  Speaker 6: rest of Australia will need to bail out Victoria. So
• 16:25
  Speaker 6: this is a big issue for every single Australian taxpayer
• 16:29
  Speaker 6: because ultimately it'll be Canberra, through the GST or other
• 16:33
  Speaker 6: grant mechanisms that will boil the Victorian economy out and
• 16:36
  Speaker 6: in doing so we'll drag down the rest of the country.
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: Daniel Wild and Patrick Carlin, thank you vote so much
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: for your time.
• 16:43
  Speaker 9: Well.
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: An academic has been stood down and referred to police
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: by Australia's oldest university after tweeting Zionists should be executed.
• 16:53
  Speaker 4: The University of Sydney's.
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: Farhad Ali posted last week f sanctions, I want bonus
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: executed like we executed Nazis. When that post was marked
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: by X's violent speech, Ali doubled down. He wrote, don't
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: tell me wanting to see these people hanged like the
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: Nazis were post Nuremberg.
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: Is violent. Ali is now.
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: Being investigated by both the university and New South Wales police. Meanwhile,
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: the UNI's student protest leaders were questioned at a New
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: Southwell's parliamentary inquiry into anti Semitism. One caught out for
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: giving incorrect evidence about a billboard of Palestinian terrorists that
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: was put up on campus.
• 17:37
  Speaker 6: There has never been any such billboard, you know, there's
• 17:42
  Speaker 6: no photographic evidence.
• 17:43
  Speaker 10: I would say that your claim that this billboard didn't
• 17:46
  Speaker 10: exist is indeed fake news because I have a copy
• 17:50
  Speaker 10: a photo of the billboard here.
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: We never saw any of this billboard.
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: The billboard featured this image of October's Sevan mastermind and
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: Hama's military chief Mohammed def among other Palestinian terrorists. Joining
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: me now is the New South Wales Liberal Upper House
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: MP Chris Rath, who exposed that student protest and led
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: a lot of that question during the inquiry.
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: Chris, thank you for joining.
• 18:18
  Speaker 10: Me, Thanks for having me.
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: Well, look, it was infuriating to listen to some of
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: that evidence just to find, for example, calls for interfarda.
• 18:33
  Speaker 10: That's right, I think they're quite dismissive of antisemitism. These
• 18:38
  Speaker 10: student leaders, and indeed so many in particular at the
• 18:41
  Speaker 10: University of Sydney. They try and say that inter farda
• 18:45
  Speaker 10: just means shake it off or shake off, which is ridiculous.
• 18:48
  Speaker 10: We know that into farda is used as a term
• 18:51
  Speaker 10: by so many to mean an armed and aggressive uprising.
• 18:55
  Speaker 10: It has been a term that has inspired so many
• 18:59
  Speaker 10: around the world to enact violence against the Jewish community
• 19:03
  Speaker 10: and against the State of Israel. So I don't think
• 19:06
  Speaker 10: that we should be turning a blind eye when people
• 19:10
  Speaker 10: use terms like globalize into farda.
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: You also had the chance during this inquiry to question
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: Sydney University leadership over it's handling of these tweets by
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: that academic farhad Ali. The fact that an academic felt
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: emboldened enough to post execute Zionus in the first place,
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: What do you think that says about our universities.
• 19:37
  Speaker 10: Yeah, I think that the universities have been very slow
• 19:40
  Speaker 10: to act since October seven on combating anti Semitism. At
• 19:44
  Speaker 10: the University of Sydney in particular, they did very little
• 19:47
  Speaker 10: over twelve months. They didn't shut down the encampment that existed,
• 19:52
  Speaker 10: and that harassed and intimidated Jews. If you look at
• 19:56
  Speaker 10: the farhad Ali example, I think you know that antisemitism
• 20:01
  Speaker 10: is rife at our universities, in particular at the University
• 20:05
  Speaker 10: of Sydney. They try and hide behind terms like well,
• 20:08
  Speaker 10: if we say execute the Zionists, it's not actually anti Semitic.
• 20:12
  Speaker 10: They try and differentiate Zionism from the Jewish community, but
• 20:17
  Speaker 10: we all know that that's complete and utter nonsense. No
• 20:21
  Speaker 10: reasonable person would differentiate Zionism from antisemitism. And that you
• 20:28
  Speaker 10: know that link is is I think really important.
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's really disingenuous, and I think you exposed how
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: they use that sort of coded language. I mean ninety
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: percent of Jews a Zionists, something like that figure. But
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: of course non Jews can be Zionus too. Many non
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: Jews of Zionis and believe Jews have the right to
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: sovereignty in their own homeland. What did the universities have
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: to say about their handling of the anti Semitism crisis overall?
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: I noticed that University of Sydney leadership actually said that
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: they thought they handled the dismantling of the longest running
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: pro palest in in encampment on their campus, well compared
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: to say campuses in the US.
• 21:13
  Speaker 10: Yeah, I think there's a lot of revisionist history there
• 21:16
  Speaker 10: from the university saying that they did a remarkable job.
• 21:21
  Speaker 10: But we know that anti Semitism has been on the
• 21:24
  Speaker 10: rise at our universities since October seven. Less than half
• 21:29
  Speaker 10: of all Jewish students and academics feel safe going to
• 21:33
  Speaker 10: our universities. It's a terrible situation that we're in. I
• 21:38
  Speaker 10: think the University of Sydney somewhat reluctantly acknowledged that they
• 21:43
  Speaker 10: didn't get everything right, and I think one of the
• 21:46
  Speaker 10: things that they didn't get right was allowing that encampment
• 21:49
  Speaker 10: to exist for as long as it did. When you
• 21:52
  Speaker 10: have an encampment that is has links to a known
• 21:55
  Speaker 10: terrorist organization his book to Rea, an encampment that proudly
• 22:00
  Speaker 10: flies the flag of Hesbola or the Taliban, or at
• 22:05
  Speaker 10: least flags that resemble those flags, when you have an
• 22:10
  Speaker 10: encampment that is deliberately intimidating and harassing Jewish students, I
• 22:16
  Speaker 10: think that it went on for far too long, and
• 22:18
  Speaker 10: one of their responses seemed to be that, well, there
• 22:22
  Speaker 10: should be maybe another entrance into exams or into classes
• 22:27
  Speaker 10: that Jewish students could use so that they didn't have
• 22:29
  Speaker 10: to walk past the encampments and be harassed by these
• 22:33
  Speaker 10: hard left activists. Well, I would suggest that the better
• 22:36
  Speaker 10: approach would be to shut down the encampments and not
• 22:40
  Speaker 10: to allow those encampments to occur, rather than segregating our
• 22:44
  Speaker 10: Jewish students from everyone else by giving them a special
• 22:48
  Speaker 10: entrance that they could use.
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I noticed the university said that it wasn't just
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: for Jewish students the alternative entry, But then again, who
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: else was feeling as rasped by these encampments? Chris Brathware
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: out of time, but I really appreciate you coming on.
• 23:04
  Speaker 4: Thanks for your time.
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: No worries still to come.
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: Lefties losing it plus allegations around plan to assassinate Donald Trump.
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: Kosher Gata has the details, and now it's time for
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: lefties losing it. First, let's do a welfare check on
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: those US protesters, starting with a grown man losing it
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: at a doll of Donald Trump.
• 23:38
  Speaker 5: No, no, no, yes, entirely sane behavior, Just like this
• 23:56
  Speaker 5: next protester who claims Hitler and the Nazis.
• 23:59
  Speaker 4: Got their ideas from America.
• 24:02
  Speaker 11: My friends, when you think about the Holocaust, how they're
• 24:05
  Speaker 11: going to a reference point professism.
• 24:08
  Speaker 4: I need us to remember it was not born out
• 24:10
  Speaker 4: of nineteen forty s.
• 24:13
  Speaker 12: Hello and his cis talking out from America, from the.
• 24:17
  Speaker 11: Archim crow laws, from the first life, first people's and oh,
• 24:22
  Speaker 11: extreme racial segregations.
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: That's where he has a playbook.
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: Now watches the members of a movement who preach about
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: kindness and inclusivity kindly call for officers to jump off
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: a building. And the kindness continued after protesters found out
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: which accommodation ICE agents were staying out and held a
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: little demonstration they.
• 24:52
  Speaker 4: Called no sleep for Ice. So what are the Democrats doing?
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: Well, all this is happening, Well, they're pushing a bill
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: banning mosques for law enforcement, effectively forcing offices to endanger themselves.
• 25:16
  Speaker 8: And I think the concern is a lot that's happening.
• 25:18
  Speaker 8: There are a lot of people who are engage in
• 25:20
  Speaker 8: these enforcement actions and we don't know are they federal,
• 25:23
  Speaker 8: are they contractors? Are the local law enforcement? And so
• 25:27
  Speaker 8: we're requiring that people not have to wear masks except
• 25:29
  Speaker 8: for some very limited exceptions, and that they'd be identifying
• 25:32
  Speaker 8: information insures that we know who is involved here.
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: Despite the violent protest footage we've all seen over the
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: past week, left wing media still insists they're peaceful.
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: Nothing to see here, folks.
• 25:45
  Speaker 7: A study from the Media Research Center shows that from
• 25:48
  Speaker 7: June eleventh to the twelfth, CNN and MSNBC personalities insisted
• 25:53
  Speaker 7: the anti ice demonstrations were peaceful two hundred and eleven
• 25:58
  Speaker 7: times they were more entire two hundred and eleven times
• 26:02
  Speaker 7: they were peaceful.
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: You'd think at this point lawmakers would be trying to
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: calm public hostilities, but some are doing the exact opposite,
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: like Democrat North Carolina state Representative Julie von Hafen, who
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: posted a video on social media that included this image
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: of the No Kings protest of a sign that read,
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: in difficult times, some cuts maybe necessary, with an image
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: of a guillotine and two decapitated heads.
• 26:31
  Speaker 4: Classy stuff.
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: She later posted a message condemning political violence, and her
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: ex account is now inactive. And here is Chicago Mayor
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: Brandon Johnson saying he will continue to resist.
• 26:46
  Speaker 9: You've never seen a society improve or expand under this
• 26:49
  Speaker 9: type of fear, and we're going to continue to resist,
• 26:52
  Speaker 9: and we're going to do it in many different ways,
• 26:54
  Speaker 9: whether it's taken to the streets or to the courts.
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: I wonder what he means by taking it to the streets.
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: And some Democrats are even calling for the police to
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: tip off illegal immigrants before ice rights happened. Here is
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: La City Councilwoman Amelda Padilla.
• 27:12
  Speaker 13: Can we use technology like AI technology to create a
• 27:17
  Speaker 13: situation where your department can identify, Hey, there's agents non
• 27:25
  Speaker 13: City of La in a neighboring town. Everyone go on
• 27:30
  Speaker 13: alert in a way where you can support our business
• 27:33
  Speaker 13: community and our immigrant community to know that it's time.
• 27:37
  Speaker 13: That's something related to the lack of due process, the
• 27:41
  Speaker 13: lack of warrants is about to hit our town.
• 27:46
  Speaker 4: You can't make this stuff up.
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: Even LAPD Chief Jim McDonald seemed fed up with a lunacy.
• 27:54
  Speaker 9: So you're asking me to warn you about an enforcement
• 27:56
  Speaker 9: action being taken by another agency before it happens.
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, we can't do that.
• 28:02
  Speaker 14: Why not?
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: There would be obstruction of justice. You may want to
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: talk to the city attorney about that.
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: And if you've ever wondered how these protests have become
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: so violent, you need to look no further than lefties
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: who have time and time again call for exactly that.
• 28:19
  Speaker 8: I just don't even know why there aren't uprisings all
• 28:22
  Speaker 8: of the country.
• 28:22
  Speaker 12: Maybe there will be.
• 28:24
  Speaker 7: People need to start taking to the streets.
• 28:26
  Speaker 10: This is a dictator, you know.
• 28:28
  Speaker 15: There needs to be unrest in the streets for as
• 28:30
  Speaker 15: well as there's unrest in our lives.
• 28:32
  Speaker 9: Enemies of the state. Show me where it says that
• 28:34
  Speaker 9: protests are supposed to be polite?
• 28:36
  Speaker 4: How do you resist the temptation to run up and
• 28:39
  Speaker 4: wring her?
• 28:39
  Speaker 8: Next biggest terror threat in this country is white men.
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: Most of them radicalize up.
• 28:46
  Speaker 14: To the right.
• 28:47
  Speaker 13: I have thought an awful lot about blowing up the
• 28:51
  Speaker 13: White House.
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: Joining me now is Skyanese contributor Kosha Gada. Kosha Trump
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: has warned residents of Tehran to evacuate immediately, then left
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: the G seven early because of the Middle East. Defense
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: Secretary Pete Hegseth has confirmed the US is sending more
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: forces to the region. What do you think the level
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: of US involvement will be in this conflict now?
• 29:15
  Speaker 4: And do you think the US will give.
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: Israel the bunker buster bombs it needs to properly damage
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: around nuclear capabilities?
• 29:26
  Speaker 11: Calin great to be with you, you know, That is
• 29:28
  Speaker 11: the central question on everybody's mind right now, and honestly,
• 29:31
  Speaker 11: it is a difficult one to answer because it is
• 29:35
  Speaker 11: exposing a clear divide in American politics right now, and
• 29:39
  Speaker 11: particularly on the right of the Trump based Trumps electorate
• 29:42
  Speaker 11: and his constituency, and that is that by and large,
• 29:45
  Speaker 11: they are very supportive of Israel's sovereignty, Israel's right to
• 29:50
  Speaker 11: defend itself and to do what it deems is in
• 29:52
  Speaker 11: its national interest. I think there's full agreement there. But
• 29:55
  Speaker 11: where that line starts to break and the divide appears
• 29:58
  Speaker 11: is what the level of US involvement should be. And
• 30:00
  Speaker 11: Trump's core base is staunchly opposed to it. They are
• 30:03
  Speaker 11: war weary. The US is coming off of twenty twenty
• 30:07
  Speaker 11: five years of really failed or very anemic interventions in
• 30:11
  Speaker 11: the Middle East. Don't want to get dragged back into it.
• 30:14
  Speaker 11: And then the question is, if you start to give
• 30:16
  Speaker 11: a little bit of artillery or these types of bombs,
• 30:19
  Speaker 11: is that defensive or offensive? Is that taking us down
• 30:22
  Speaker 11: the slippery slope of greater involvement? And right now that
• 30:25
  Speaker 11: does not seem to be where the mood of the
• 30:26
  Speaker 11: country is, and I would have to think that it's
• 30:29
  Speaker 11: not where Trump's instincts are based on everything he's ever
• 30:32
  Speaker 11: said throughout his tenure, political campaign, campaigning career, and even
• 30:36
  Speaker 11: before that.
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah, such a hard one for him to straddle, especially
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: with his base, as you point out, because if he
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: does nothing and he doesn't help Israel, then will Iran
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: be able to progress with its nuclear plans and become
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: a threat to the whole world, including the US and
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: the rest of US. You know, there have been these
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: stunning allegations that have come out as well from Israeli
• 30:59
  Speaker 3: Prime Minister Bench Yahoo, who's accused iron of actively planning
• 31:04
  Speaker 3: to assassinate Trump, who the Iranian regime had identified, he said,
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: as a threat to its nuclear program.
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: Take a look.
• 31:13
  Speaker 14: They want to kill it. Look is enemy number one.
• 31:16
  Speaker 14: He's a decisive leader. He never took the path that
• 31:20
  Speaker 14: others took to try to bargain with him in a
• 31:23
  Speaker 14: way that is weak, giving them, giving them basically a
• 31:26
  Speaker 14: pathway to a rich uranium, which means a pathway to
• 31:28
  Speaker 14: the bomb, patting it with billions and billions of dollars Toosha.
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: Is this Israel trying to get more help from Trump
• 31:36
  Speaker 3: in this conflict, or do you think this could actually
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: explain all the unanswered questions that still linger over the
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: two assassination plots against Trump.
• 31:47
  Speaker 11: You know, it's another example of where it's so tricky
• 31:50
  Speaker 11: or even impossible to know that for sure in the
• 31:53
  Speaker 11: fog of war that we're in. You know, there are
• 31:55
  Speaker 11: lots of reports out there, some conflicting, some true, some untrue,
• 31:59
  Speaker 11: some rtially true, And the reality is that we will
• 32:03
  Speaker 11: never know probably the true extent of how much is
• 32:06
  Speaker 11: true or not in there. But it is certainly conceivable.
• 32:08
  Speaker 11: I mean, we know that many people have tried to
• 32:11
  Speaker 11: and continue to try to assassinate Trump or any leader,
• 32:14
  Speaker 11: especially him, because he has taken a different approach for
• 32:17
  Speaker 11: many many issues globally and domestically, and it's a violent
• 32:21
  Speaker 11: world out there, so it is certainly not outside the
• 32:23
  Speaker 11: realm of possibility.
• 32:24
  Speaker 4: It is also possible.
• 32:25
  Speaker 11: That these things are part of the stage craft that
• 32:28
  Speaker 11: different leaders and nations obviously do by mixing things out
• 32:32
  Speaker 11: there in the public discourse as one tool in how
• 32:35
  Speaker 11: to influence public opinion. So it's probably somewhere in between.
• 32:37
  Speaker 11: But I think the overall picture remains unchanged. That we
• 32:41
  Speaker 11: talked about about this really fundamental central question that Trump
• 32:45
  Speaker 11: is grappling with He is a peace snake by nature.
• 32:47
  Speaker 11: He doesn't like war, he doesn't like US involvement. He's
• 32:50
  Speaker 11: very much focused on domestic policy. But the world is
• 32:53
  Speaker 11: on fire right now, and each day that goes by,
• 32:54
  Speaker 11: he is getting a little bit sucked into that picture.
• 32:57
  Speaker 11: And time will tell how this all unfolds.
• 32:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and he has talked a big talk with Iran,
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: with Hamas, saying if you don't do what I say,
• 33:05
  Speaker 3: in Hamas's case, they will be held to pay. We
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: didn't quite see that from the US perspective. And with Iran,
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: you know, if you don't hit those that sixty day
• 33:15
  Speaker 3: marketers to make a deal, then then you're going to
• 33:19
  Speaker 3: have to face the consequences as well. Meanwhile, Israeli bombs
• 33:24
  Speaker 3: have hit Iranian state media studios in Tehran, causing one
• 33:28
  Speaker 3: of their television hosts to flee.
• 33:31
  Speaker 4: The set's.
• 33:49
  Speaker 3: Kosher NETNYA, who pointed out, well, this isn't simply any
• 33:53
  Speaker 3: news channel but a tool being used by the Iranian
• 33:57
  Speaker 3: regime to push propaganda on Iranians.
• 34:00
  Speaker 4: But extraordinary footage there.
• 34:05
  Speaker 11: Really not something you see every day for sure. And
• 34:07
  Speaker 11: you know, back to our theme of having the fog
• 34:09
  Speaker 11: of war. It's really hard to know exactly what's going on.
• 34:13
  Speaker 11: It is clear that Israel has waged a really exquisite
• 34:17
  Speaker 11: military campaign so far and just the way they've been
• 34:19
  Speaker 11: able to use intelligence coupled with their military might to
• 34:23
  Speaker 11: execute what they have in the last few days. So
• 34:25
  Speaker 11: for sure we could see that being true. It is also,
• 34:27
  Speaker 11: I'm sure possible that the Iranian government is promoting, you know,
• 34:32
  Speaker 11: footage like this on purpose to try and again affect
• 34:34
  Speaker 11: public opinion not just domestically but globally in terms of
• 34:38
  Speaker 11: what Israel is doing. Why are they striking media outlets
• 34:41
  Speaker 11: as opposed to nuclear facilities or the missile bomb and
• 34:44
  Speaker 11: things like that. So that's I think part of what's
• 34:47
  Speaker 11: in the mix here. But this it is a reminder
• 34:49
  Speaker 11: either way that this is a big deal. It's a
• 34:52
  Speaker 11: very hot conflict. The stakes are high, the risks are high,
• 34:55
  Speaker 11: and it is escalating.
• 34:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Kosha, I also wanted to get your reaction to
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: Donald Trump's decision to ditch Albanesi at the G seven.
• 35:04
  Speaker 4: But should we really be surprised about that?
• 35:09
  Speaker 11: You know, it's a fair question. It's not a good
• 35:13
  Speaker 11: day for Prime Minister Albin Easy as it wouldn't be
• 35:15
  Speaker 11: for anybody who's on the receiving end of a public rejection,
• 35:19
  Speaker 11: if we.
• 35:20
  Speaker 4: Want to call it that.
• 35:21
  Speaker 11: But just based on the topic we've discussed again, the
• 35:23
  Speaker 11: world is on fire and there are other bigger pressing
• 35:26
  Speaker 11: issues out there than trade relationship between the US and Australia.
• 35:30
  Speaker 11: So I think there's some in the Prime Minister's defense.
• 35:33
  Speaker 11: There is truth to that that the president's schedule is
• 35:36
  Speaker 11: very busy. Things happen. He also canceled a meeting with
• 35:40
  Speaker 11: Prime Minister Modiam India, for example, another very important country
• 35:43
  Speaker 11: and important relationships. So I wouldn't read too much into it,
• 35:46
  Speaker 11: but it does show that if this administration here is
• 35:49
  Speaker 11: not able to be more proactive in developing diplomatic relationships
• 35:53
  Speaker 11: and getting a breakthrough with the Trump administration, then sort
• 35:56
  Speaker 11: of spills out onto the world stage and certainly doesn't
• 35:58
  Speaker 11: make them look particularly strong.
• 36:00
  Speaker 4: No, it doesn't.
• 36:01
  Speaker 3: Well, let's look more closely at US politics now and
• 36:05
  Speaker 3: fifty seven year old of Vance Bulter, the man suspected
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: of shooting two state Democrat politicians in Minnesota, has been
• 36:12
  Speaker 3: arrested after a two day man hunt, which saw authorities
• 36:16
  Speaker 3: track him into rural woodlands.
• 36:19
  Speaker 4: What more do we know kosher.
• 36:21
  Speaker 3: Are there any more insights at this stage into his
• 36:24
  Speaker 3: motivation for these attacks?
• 36:28
  Speaker 11: So the story is still unfolding and developing. Different officials
• 36:33
  Speaker 11: have come out and said that they have reason to
• 36:35
  Speaker 11: believe that it certainly was politically motivated. They're being a
• 36:39
  Speaker 11: little bit tight lipped about what more that means underneath it. Allegedly,
• 36:43
  Speaker 11: reportedly there was a notebook that had been recovered from
• 36:47
  Speaker 11: his possessions that had a target hit list of other
• 36:49
  Speaker 11: political leaders that apparently he wanted to come after or
• 36:53
  Speaker 11: was thinking about going after.
• 36:54
  Speaker 4: Those names haven't.
• 36:55
  Speaker 11: Been released yet officially, so we don't know. There's different
• 36:59
  Speaker 11: reports and rumors there of who it might be, which
• 37:01
  Speaker 11: might shed some more light. I think one of the
• 37:03
  Speaker 11: most curious things about this case is that the state
• 37:06
  Speaker 11: senator from Minnesota that he did assassinate and her husband,
• 37:10
  Speaker 11: she is a Democrat, a lifelong Democrat. However, she just
• 37:13
  Speaker 11: came out hours before her assassination and voted as a
• 37:17
  Speaker 11: sole Democrat in favor of a Republican majority bill in
• 37:21
  Speaker 11: the state Senate. So read into that one made it's
• 37:25
  Speaker 11: tricky to exactly figure out what he's doing, but it
• 37:28
  Speaker 11: sounds like just another example of violence. It tends to
• 37:31
  Speaker 11: be coming from the left right now, whether you look
• 37:33
  Speaker 11: at the assassination of the United Healthcare CEO or other cases.
• 37:36
  Speaker 11: But we don't know all the details yet.
• 37:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and also the fact that vance Bult was reported
• 37:41
  Speaker 3: laer tim Walt appointee to one of.
• 37:43
  Speaker 4: His boards as well.
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: But yeah, a lot more to run on this case,
• 37:48
  Speaker 3: no doubt. Now, Donald Trump has directed federal authorities to
• 37:52
  Speaker 3: ramp up deportations in blue cities, saying on his platform
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: Truth Social the US must expand efforts to detain and
• 38:01
  Speaker 3: deport illegal aliens in America's largest cities, such as Los Angeles, Chicago,
• 38:07
  Speaker 3: and New York, where millions upon millions of illegal aliens
• 38:11
  Speaker 3: reside Kosher. Given we've seen the violent protests over the
• 38:16
  Speaker 3: past week in the US, how do you think this
• 38:18
  Speaker 3: move will go down there?
• 38:22
  Speaker 11: It is going to continue to be the firestorm that
• 38:26
  Speaker 11: it is. I think it's a stark reminder to everybody
• 38:29
  Speaker 11: how difficult this is. Again, Like the big picture is
• 38:32
  Speaker 11: America has something like forty plus million illegals in its country.
• 38:36
  Speaker 11: About ten million of them came in in the last
• 38:39
  Speaker 11: four years under Biden. Willfully because that was the policy
• 38:42
  Speaker 11: it's the only thing we can interpret from that, and
• 38:44
  Speaker 11: look how difficult it is to get them out once
• 38:46
  Speaker 11: they come in. The Public sentiment has completely shifted. Even
• 38:50
  Speaker 11: lifelong Democrats, moderates, center left independence are all in favor
• 38:53
  Speaker 11: of master deprotations. It's a shift that I haven't seen
• 38:56
  Speaker 11: in my lifetime in terms of how quickly that's happened.
• 38:58
  Speaker 11: So the public support is on Trump side, but the
• 39:01
  Speaker 11: logistics and the mechanics of getting it done is really
• 39:03
  Speaker 11: really difficult because of these protests, because of judges or
• 39:06
  Speaker 11: we ruling or issuing these nationwide injunctions and all the
• 39:09
  Speaker 11: rest of it. So this fight is not going to
• 39:11
  Speaker 11: be easy. But he is going street to the belly
• 39:14
  Speaker 11: of the beast, which is these blue stats. These Democrat
• 39:17
  Speaker 11: states are sanctuary cities infamously where they just defy federal
• 39:21
  Speaker 11: immigration law and law enforcement. And so that's where he's going,
• 39:24
  Speaker 11: and he's got three and a half years left to
• 39:25
  Speaker 11: do it.
• 39:26
  Speaker 12: Well.
• 39:26
  Speaker 3: Speaking of one person who's definitely not in support of
• 39:29
  Speaker 3: these mass deportations, New York State Attorney General Letitia James,
• 39:34
  Speaker 3: who's facing a federal probe at the moment into allegations
• 39:37
  Speaker 3: she engaged in mortgage fraud. She is investigating now local
• 39:41
  Speaker 3: police for misconduct. The misconduct being allegedly helping the Trump
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: administration to crack down on illegal immigration by cooperating with
• 39:53
  Speaker 3: ICE and other border agencies. Kosher, what did you make
• 39:55
  Speaker 3: of this?
• 39:58
  Speaker 11: She is still clinging to that sanctuary city mantra that
• 40:02
  Speaker 11: guided New York a very famous sanctuary city and state,
• 40:06
  Speaker 11: along with California and Illinois and others. And she's still
• 40:09
  Speaker 11: clinging to that. She is somebody who has gone down
• 40:11
  Speaker 11: in infamy as the attorney general presiding over a state
• 40:14
  Speaker 11: that has had an increase in crime and poorly managed
• 40:17
  Speaker 11: budget and so many other things.
• 40:19
  Speaker 4: And what did she do.
• 40:20
  Speaker 11: She went after then candidate Trump and his business in
• 40:24
  Speaker 11: which there was no harm, there were no victims, the
• 40:26
  Speaker 11: whole thing where he allegedly overvalued the value of his
• 40:29
  Speaker 11: properties to the banks, even though he paid back the interest,
• 40:32
  Speaker 11: got that conviction which is now working its way up
• 40:35
  Speaker 11: the court, and I think will be dismissed. But she
• 40:37
  Speaker 11: did that, and then the irony is really delicious that
• 40:40
  Speaker 11: she's the one now being investigated for mortgage fraud. And
• 40:42
  Speaker 11: then on top of that, now she's doing this so
• 40:44
  Speaker 11: she's not going to go down without a fight. But
• 40:46
  Speaker 11: she is not a figure who is sympathetic, and she
• 40:49
  Speaker 11: certainly has not covered herself in glory.
• 40:51
  Speaker 4: No, she certainly has not.
• 40:52
  Speaker 3: Very quickly, we're almost out of time, but former Democrat
• 40:55
  Speaker 3: governor of New York, Andrew Cuomo is facing and ethnics
• 40:58
  Speaker 3: complain over he's alleged failure to disclose the more than
• 41:02
  Speaker 3: two point six million US dollars in stock options he
• 41:05
  Speaker 3: has an advanced nuclear technology before launching his New York
• 41:10
  Speaker 3: mayoral campaign. Kosher, how damaging of these accusations.
• 41:16
  Speaker 11: It doesn't help, and it's just a payline on a
• 41:19
  Speaker 11: series of things he's had in a fall from Greece
• 41:22
  Speaker 11: from at one point he was a front runner for
• 41:24
  Speaker 11: a Democrat leadership and this is just piling on to him.
• 41:27
  Speaker 11: So he's definitely down, down and out for the party.
• 41:30
  Speaker 4: Another person not exactly covered in glory.
• 41:32
  Speaker 3: Kosher Garter, always great to speak to you, Thank you
• 41:34
  Speaker 3: for your time.
• 41:36
  Speaker 4: Still to come.
• 41:37
  Speaker 3: Meghan Markles speaks out about her infamous twerking video.
• 41:41
  Speaker 5: D D.
• 41:41
  Speaker 4: Dun Levy has the latest.
• 41:54
  Speaker 3: Welcome back joining me now is veteran broadcaster d D.
• 41:58
  Speaker 4: Dun Levy.
• 41:59
  Speaker 3: Did he former ten executive producer Rob McKnight has lashed
• 42:03
  Speaker 3: the network's replacement for the project, ten News Plus, which
• 42:07
  Speaker 3: is set to air an hour earlier than its predecessor
• 42:10
  Speaker 3: at six pm. He said, this is going to be
• 42:13
  Speaker 3: a multi billion dollar disaster for Ten. Not only have
• 42:17
  Speaker 3: they failed to create a unique brand with this show,
• 42:21
  Speaker 3: but they've worked on the assumption that viewers of ten
• 42:23
  Speaker 3: News at five pm will continue watching news on ten.
• 42:27
  Speaker 3: Every bit of research and ratings I've seen over thirty
• 42:30
  Speaker 3: years in the industry shows news viewers will watch ten
• 42:34
  Speaker 3: at five pm and then flick over to nine and
• 42:37
  Speaker 3: seven at six pm. He also said that if ten
• 42:41
  Speaker 3: News Plus is to have any chance of succeeding, it
• 42:45
  Speaker 3: had to set itself apart from the woke sermonizing that
• 42:49
  Speaker 3: alienated viewers and sank its predecessor of the project.
• 42:53
  Speaker 4: Did he do you think his assessment is right?
• 42:55
  Speaker 16: Absolutely one hundred percent in Rob's very experience, and I
• 42:58
  Speaker 16: do appreciate his opinions, I think is correct. I think
• 43:02
  Speaker 16: Ten have really come up against it with this idea
• 43:05
  Speaker 16: because they say that they're chasing a more mature audience,
• 43:09
  Speaker 16: because we know that younger people are not consuming their news.
• 43:11
  Speaker 16: In fact, any content at all on free to wear
• 43:15
  Speaker 16: television these days, and that mature audience is already rusted
• 43:20
  Speaker 16: on over at seven and nine. You know, any given night,
• 43:22
  Speaker 16: if you look at the two biggest shows, the biggest
• 43:25
  Speaker 16: rating shows of the evening, it's going to be the
• 43:27
  Speaker 16: seven and nine News. So that audience that ten are
• 43:31
  Speaker 16: chasing are already settled in somewhere else, So they're going
• 43:36
  Speaker 16: to have a lot of trouble trying to get them
• 43:37
  Speaker 16: to watch this new offering. I think its name is
• 43:40
  Speaker 16: really name. It doesn't tell us anything about what we
• 43:43
  Speaker 16: can expect to see and like it or not, whether
• 43:46
  Speaker 16: it's real or perceived. Ten has people can perceive it
• 43:50
  Speaker 16: as being woke, and that's another thing that they're up
• 43:53
  Speaker 16: again against in trying to get people to watch this show.
• 43:55
  Speaker 3: You're right about the name ten years plus. It sounds
• 43:58
  Speaker 3: like a new iPhone or something.
• 44:00
  Speaker 7: I mean.
• 44:00
  Speaker 3: While Meghan Markle has broken her silence on the infamous
• 44:03
  Speaker 3: twerking video she posted to her Instagram last week while
• 44:08
  Speaker 3: in labor with daughter Lillibat, here's what she had to say.
• 44:12
  Speaker 15: It's also a really great reminder that with all the
• 44:14
  Speaker 15: noise or whatever people do, they're still a whole life,
• 44:17
  Speaker 15: a real, authentic, fun life.
• 44:19
  Speaker 12: That's happening behind the scenes.
• 44:20
  Speaker 15: I'm just grateful that now being back on social as well,
• 44:23
  Speaker 15: I have a police where you can share it on
• 44:25
  Speaker 15: my own terms.
• 44:26
  Speaker 3: Diddy, I got to say, I watched that and the
• 44:28
  Speaker 3: last thing that struck me was authenticity. It all seemed
• 44:32
  Speaker 3: to be a really sort of I don't know, choreographed,
• 44:35
  Speaker 3: almost moment of spontaneity that she showed correct and.
• 44:41
  Speaker 16: I think that's the issue here. And there was a
• 44:43
  Speaker 16: couple of grabs released from another podcast that Megan has
• 44:46
  Speaker 16: gone on, and one of the things that she said
• 44:49
  Speaker 16: that she would like most is for people to tell
• 44:51
  Speaker 16: the truth.
• 44:51
  Speaker 4: It tells us.
• 44:52
  Speaker 12: I think that she knows she's got a problem in
• 44:55
  Speaker 12: people's perception of her, that she's a liar. You know.
• 44:58
  Speaker 16: She painted this image of her on the Netflix show
• 45:01
  Speaker 16: that she released recently, saying that she sat in front
• 45:04
  Speaker 16: of the TV eating TV dinners while her brother came
• 45:06
  Speaker 16: out and said, that's a load of rubbish.
• 45:08
  Speaker 12: We weren't poor at all. You know.
• 45:09
  Speaker 16: She tried to tell us that she never knew who
• 45:11
  Speaker 16: Prince Harry was before she hooked up with him, and
• 45:15
  Speaker 16: that's surely a lie.
• 45:16
  Speaker 12: I don't believe a word of that.
• 45:17
  Speaker 16: I think she knows that people can see right through
• 45:21
  Speaker 16: all of her.
• 45:21
  Speaker 12: Fakery and it's coming undone. It really is.
• 45:24
  Speaker 3: And the Sussexes have now released never before seen footage
• 45:28
  Speaker 3: of Prince Harry playing with their two children to celebrate
• 45:32
  Speaker 3: Father's Day. Did he I thought they wanted privacy?
• 45:36
  Speaker 16: Yes, Once again, this is an example of them saying
• 45:39
  Speaker 16: one thing and doing the other. She's using her family
• 45:43
  Speaker 16: now as currency. She's obviously addicted now to the sugarhead
• 45:46
  Speaker 16: of the likes that she's getting because she's starting to
• 45:48
  Speaker 16: release more of this stuff on Instagram. But I also
• 45:51
  Speaker 16: want to point out to Meghan, that's not your father,
• 45:54
  Speaker 16: that's your husband. Maybe she was posting it on behalf
• 45:57
  Speaker 16: of the children who asked her to post that, But
• 46:00
  Speaker 16: how about repair the relationship with your own father, Megan,
• 46:04
  Speaker 16: because that would be the one I would think I
• 46:05
  Speaker 16: would appreciate seeing a post of her with her own dad.
• 46:09
  Speaker 16: We know that she doesn't have a good relationship with
• 46:11
  Speaker 16: her family, but it's again just I think, an example
• 46:14
  Speaker 16: of her being manipulative and using her family to get
• 46:18
  Speaker 16: what she wants, and that is the attention which she's getting.
• 46:21
  Speaker 12: Unfortunately, we're giving it to her now, are we?
• 46:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we are.
• 46:24
  Speaker 3: It's hard to give her the benefit of the doubt though,
• 46:26
  Speaker 3: did I mean not just her own father. Think about
• 46:29
  Speaker 3: the relationship between Harry and his father, King Charles and
• 46:32
  Speaker 3: how she's played a role in helping to pull them apart.
• 46:36
  Speaker 3: And speaking of King Charles, well, he's shared his own
• 46:40
  Speaker 3: touching Father's Day message. He posted throwback photos of himself
• 46:44
  Speaker 3: and his sister Princess Anne playing on the swings while
• 46:48
  Speaker 3: their late father, Prince Philip pushed them, as well as
• 46:51
  Speaker 3: a photo of his wife Quinn Camilla with her late dad,
• 46:55
  Speaker 3: Major Bruce Shand from the April two thousand and five
• 46:58
  Speaker 3: wedding day. Did he I found these a really touching
• 47:02
  Speaker 3: tribute in contrast to perhaps what Megan.
• 47:05
  Speaker 16: Had to share well exactly because it seems and feels
• 47:08
  Speaker 16: and probably is authentic and look. I as much as
• 47:12
  Speaker 16: anyone would love to see this relationship between Harry and
• 47:16
  Speaker 16: the rest of the royal family repaired.
• 47:18
  Speaker 12: But I think he's damaged it beyond.
• 47:20
  Speaker 16: Repair with the release of his book Spare and all
• 47:23
  Speaker 16: of these attacks that he's having to go at them
• 47:25
  Speaker 16: in the press, and he's saying that still this issue
• 47:30
  Speaker 16: of the security if he were.
• 47:32
  Speaker 12: To go back to London.
• 47:33
  Speaker 16: You know, they're so in fear of their lives and
• 47:36
  Speaker 16: because the Royal family won't provide them with the security
• 47:40
  Speaker 16: that they want, that that's never going to happen. And
• 47:43
  Speaker 16: yet we go back again to what Meghan has done
• 47:46
  Speaker 16: in releasing all those pictures of the children. If they
• 47:48
  Speaker 16: really were so concerned about the security of their family,
• 47:51
  Speaker 16: why would she be releasing pictures of the children's faces
• 47:54
  Speaker 16: the way she's doing that.
• 47:56
  Speaker 3: I thought she was going for a phase of covering
• 47:58
  Speaker 3: them up. You make a really good point. It doesn't
• 48:00
  Speaker 3: make sense accept as a sort of crisis management desperate
• 48:04
  Speaker 3: crisis management tool.
• 48:05
  Speaker 4: Dd Dunleyvy. Thank you so much for your time.
• 48:08
  Speaker 12: Thanks Carolyn, and that's it for me.
• 48:11
  Speaker 4: Up next is Newsnight. Good Night,
