Speaker 1: On Scolds Australia. This is the reader Panete.
0:06
Speaker 2: Show, Good evening and welcome to the Rita Panehe Show.
0:10
Speaker 2: I'm Daniki di Giorgio coming up tonight. Anthony Albanesi dismisses
0:14
Speaker 2: Hermas's praise as propaganda, as the opposition reiterate their calls
0:19
Speaker 2: for the PM to not recognize Palestine the bizarre claims
0:23
Speaker 2: by the ABC that heated swimming pools are contributing to
0:27
Speaker 2: rising emissions. Kel Richards will join me Army Horowitz on
0:31
Speaker 2: Donald Trump's latest threat to Russia if Vladimir Putin does
0:35
Speaker 2: not agree to end the war in Ukraine during their
0:38
Speaker 2: upcoming peace summit. Season two of Megan Markles with Love
0:42
Speaker 2: Meghan series is already facing backlash after a controversial model
0:47
Speaker 2: appeared in the trailer. Kinsey Schofield will tell us why
0:51
Speaker 2: and of course left he's losing it, including the insufferable
0:54
Speaker 2: level of gender confusion.
0:57
Speaker 3: So not a girl, but I do have a girlfriend.
0:59
Speaker 3: But my my girlfriend really isn't like a girl. So
1:02
Speaker 3: that's why I call him my boyfriend and they call
1:05
Speaker 3: me their boyfriend.
1:06
Speaker 2: But first tonight, the Prime Minister has taken a nothing
1:09
Speaker 2: to see here approach after Hamask praised Labour's decision to
1:13
Speaker 2: recognize a Palestinian statehood.
1:16
Speaker 4: The opposition has.
1:17
Speaker 5: Accused you of involden in Hamas.
1:20
Speaker 6: What do you say the criticisms that you've given them
1:23
Speaker 6: a propaganda victory.
1:24
Speaker 7: Well, what I say is that they shouldn't repeat Hamas's propaganda.
1:28
Speaker 7: So I won't be a cheer squad for Hamas and
1:31
Speaker 7: for its statements. What I'll do is say that Hamas
1:34
Speaker 7: should be isolated.
1:36
Speaker 2: Joining me now to discuss this and more is Menzi's research.
1:39
Speaker 2: Fellow Nick Cator and founder of a Dony Media Lisa Goddard.
1:42
Speaker 2: Hi to both of you. Thanks so much for joining me.
1:45
Speaker 8: Nick.
1:45
Speaker 2: So the Prime Minister is calling it propaganda. What exactly
1:50
Speaker 2: did he expect was going to happen?
1:52
Speaker 1: He's propaganda, of course, But I see this as like
1:55
Speaker 1: I've never done it. By the way, but you know,
1:57
Speaker 1: if you were to go the wrong way onto a motorway,
1:59
Speaker 1: go down, there's a big sign that says stop, go
2:02
Speaker 1: back wrong way. This is that sign. I think friendly
2:06
Speaker 1: all believe this is a sign that he has to
2:07
Speaker 1: turn around. He says it's propagandas if he doesn't believe it,
2:10
Speaker 1: he doesn't seem to believe the polling either that says
2:13
Speaker 1: that har Mass would win very comfortably. I don't know,
2:15
Speaker 1: maybe you think that the Liberal Party's polling company is
2:18
Speaker 1: doing it or something like that, but no, I mean
2:20
Speaker 1: this was not, as he suggested, polling in Gaza. This
2:23
Speaker 1: was polling on the West Bank in the Palestinian territory,
2:27
Speaker 1: which is even more alarming. The whole thing is is
2:31
Speaker 1: completely nuts and unsustainable. But his purpose is just purely symbolic,
2:36
Speaker 1: as we know.
2:36
Speaker 2: Absolutely, yeah, and you're right, the majority majority support Hermas
2:40
Speaker 2: and the majority supported Hamas's decision to carry out the
2:43
Speaker 2: October seventh massacres. So what did this guy seriously expect? Now,
2:48
Speaker 2: have a listened to the opposition leader Susan Lee today
2:50
Speaker 2: on the topic.
2:51
Speaker 6: Prime Minister has said he's not a cheerleader for her Mass.
2:56
Speaker 6: The problem is that Harms is a cheerleader for him.
3:00
Speaker 6: And when you have terrorists cheering on your foreign policy,
3:04
Speaker 6: you know that you've got it wrong.
3:07
Speaker 2: Yeah, Lisa, is she right?
3:11
Speaker 9: Yeah, Dedika, she is absolutely spot on with this. And
3:14
Speaker 9: what we're seeing is yet again Anthony Albanzi with a
3:17
Speaker 9: glass jay here, because what he's done today is come
3:19
Speaker 9: out and say the media are the ones that he's
3:21
Speaker 9: accusing for spreading terrorist propaganda.
3:23
Speaker 4: Now, the question comes back to a bit to what
3:25
Speaker 4: Nick said.
3:26
Speaker 9: He's very fast to say this is propaganda, but he
3:28
Speaker 9: never really came out and questioned the other propaganda that
3:31
Speaker 9: was coming out from a muss where he looked at
3:33
Speaker 9: photos that were coming out, we were looking at numbers
3:34
Speaker 9: around the.
3:35
Speaker 4: Death toll figures.
3:36
Speaker 9: It was more than happy to sort of sit back
3:38
Speaker 9: and let those run through the media.
3:39
Speaker 4: But today it's the media's fault.
3:41
Speaker 9: We shouldn't be promoting and putting the headlines out there
3:43
Speaker 9: that he must have squirmed at. Looking at this morning,
3:46
Speaker 9: he's very much shown that he doesn't like what's happening
3:48
Speaker 9: in the media today. He doesn't want the headlines that
3:51
Speaker 9: he's copying at the moment. But the end of the day,
3:53
Speaker 9: he said it, and that's what he has to live with.
3:55
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's always blamed somebody else, loves to shift blame
3:58
Speaker 2: for his own fate errors, and this is certainly one
4:02
Speaker 2: of them. I completely agree, Lisa. Now let's move on.
4:05
Speaker 2: Former Quantus CEO Alan Joyce is back well in a
4:08
Speaker 2: new role of sorts, and I've got to say this
4:10
Speaker 2: one is unsurprising. He's now a climate grifter. You heard
4:14
Speaker 2: that correct. He's told the Australian Aviation Summit that Australia's
4:18
Speaker 2: airlines risk becoming national parias unless they agree to a
4:22
Speaker 2: climate pack to preserve their trust, regulatory standing and social license.
4:27
Speaker 2: Ge Nick I really enjoyed it when when Alpen Joyce
4:29
Speaker 2: was completely out of the public spotlight altogether. But he's
4:32
Speaker 2: always been an activist, hasn't he, And now he wants
4:35
Speaker 2: to save the world via an airline climate packs.
4:38
Speaker 1: Sure it will become international parizes if we don't. I
4:41
Speaker 1: think the problem with the Quantus's reputation is just getting
4:44
Speaker 1: the bags out on time and getting planes to land
4:46
Speaker 1: on time. And to stop that welcomed to country nuts.
4:52
Speaker 1: I mean I called a nation airline reason. I won't
4:54
Speaker 1: tell you which it was. It wasn't particularly good, but
4:56
Speaker 1: it was so much better than Quantus, purely for the
4:59
Speaker 1: fact that we landed at the airport. We didn't get that,
5:02
Speaker 1: so no he did. I'm going to say that Joyce
5:05
Speaker 1: did some very good things for quantas. He sustained it
5:09
Speaker 1: at a time when a lot of national airlines disappeared,
5:12
Speaker 1: and I give him credit for that, but this is
5:15
Speaker 1: just not going to help the airline industry whatsoever to
5:18
Speaker 1: push them into some unproven technology that's not being tested
5:23
Speaker 1: at scale, and I, for moments won't be getting on
5:26
Speaker 1: a plane if they put this stuff in until they
5:28
Speaker 1: thuboughly tested it.
5:29
Speaker 2: No, God, no, I've been jay, as I said Lisa,
5:32
Speaker 2: I enjoyed it when Alan Joyce wasn't dictating, which active
5:35
Speaker 2: is an efforts to take control of day by day.
5:38
Speaker 2: But what do you make of his latest intervention to
5:40
Speaker 2: save the planet.
5:43
Speaker 9: Well, Deniker, it's not the first time we're going to
5:45
Speaker 9: hear him up on the stage, and he's now listed
5:47
Speaker 9: as a public speaker, a guest speaker, a keynote speaker,
5:50
Speaker 9: so we will hear a lot more from Alan Joyce
5:52
Speaker 9: as he works around or flies around at that circuit.
5:54
Speaker 9: But look, here's a man, as Nick said, that has
5:57
Speaker 9: a questionable history when it comes to what he did
6:00
Speaker 9: to Quantas by the end of his term there on Monday.
6:03
Speaker 9: The timing of this speech is interesting. Friday, we'll hear
6:05
Speaker 9: from him on Monday. We're expecting a decision to come
6:08
Speaker 9: out around his and your decision to outsourced workers, and
6:11
Speaker 9: potentially if the union gets its way, Quitus could be
6:14
Speaker 9: facing more than a two hundred million dollar fine in
6:16
Speaker 9: relation to what happened underneath Joyce's leadership. So look, he's
6:21
Speaker 9: an interesting character to watch. I don't think we all
6:23
Speaker 9: want to see him out there now instead of being
6:24
Speaker 9: a moral crusader, out there as a climate crusader.
6:27
Speaker 4: But watch this space because that's exactly what we're going
6:29
Speaker 4: to call.
6:30
Speaker 2: Yeah, good point actually about that, you know that there's
6:32
Speaker 2: still ramifications from all those quantus decisions that were made
6:35
Speaker 2: under his leadership. So yeah, one to watch out for
6:38
Speaker 2: as well. Good point. Now, one in three Indigenous corporations
6:42
Speaker 2: are staggering. One than two hundred and fifty four of
6:46
Speaker 2: them have failed to file legal reports for the twenty
6:49
Speaker 2: twenty three twenty four financial year. That would you back
6:52
Speaker 2: in December. That includes twenty six groups with a turnover
6:57
Speaker 2: of more than five million dollars geenick, we'd some massive
7:01
Speaker 2: amount of money and more than twelve hundred groups involved here.
7:04
Speaker 2: Surely there needs to be some sort of an ordered.
7:06
Speaker 1: Course I do. I mean, there's the scope for a
7:09
Speaker 1: corruption that in a system that's run like that is appalling.
7:13
Speaker 1: I think the very least they should be accounting for this,
7:16
Speaker 1: But I think they should be accounting not just for
7:18
Speaker 1: the money, but for what they've done for Aboriginal people,
7:22
Speaker 1: how much they've improved their lives. Because we know that
7:25
Speaker 1: the closing the gap measure doesn't never seem to close,
7:29
Speaker 1: and yet we put a lot of money into organizations
7:32
Speaker 1: like the Land Councils to look after Aboriginal people. They're
7:36
Speaker 1: clearly not doing their job in my view, in a
7:40
Speaker 1: broad sense.
7:41
Speaker 2: No, I agree. I'd love to know what the outcomes
7:43
Speaker 2: are when you're racking up but millions and millions of dollars.
7:47
Speaker 2: But Lisa, I just think as taxpayers we have a
7:50
Speaker 2: right to know where our money is being spent.
7:54
Speaker 4: We absolutely have a right to know.
7:56
Speaker 9: And there will be people out there who will say
7:58
Speaker 9: you're racist because you're picking on Pigenous organizations. It's not
8:01
Speaker 9: about targeting Indigenous organizations. It's about targeting organizations that, as
8:06
Speaker 9: you say, have been given taxpayer money and where is
8:09
Speaker 9: that money going? And mord Nick's point, what are the
8:11
Speaker 9: deliverables in this? Because right now, if you're calling for
8:14
Speaker 9: an audit and we actually dig into the books and
8:16
Speaker 9: find out where this money is being spent, ultimately what
8:19
Speaker 9: you were doing of protecting the people that money is
8:22
Speaker 9: meant to be helping, because you have to question whether
8:24
Speaker 9: it's actually getting through to them. I think three out
8:27
Speaker 9: of thirteen recommendations when it comes to closing the gap
8:30
Speaker 9: are meant to be met. They think only four of
8:32
Speaker 9: those will be met by twenty thirty one. So the
8:34
Speaker 9: money is going out, but what is exactly is it
8:36
Speaker 9: delivering and especially to the people in those communities.
8:39
Speaker 2: Exactly spot on, and more than twelve hundred businesses here
8:42
Speaker 2: failing to properly put forward that the correct documentation. Just
8:46
Speaker 2: it baffles me how something like this happens. Now, this
8:49
Speaker 2: really is a very very bothersome story. Victorian school children
8:53
Speaker 2: as young as five will now be taught that their
8:56
Speaker 2: body parts may not match their gender and that biology
9:00
Speaker 2: male students who identify as female are entitled to play
9:04
Speaker 2: sports on girls teams. I mean, seriously, where are we
9:07
Speaker 2: heading to now? This is part of an update to
9:09
Speaker 2: the state's Respectful Relationships curriculum. Apparently here was the premier.
9:14
Speaker 10: I back the respect for Relationships program and the curriculum
9:18
Speaker 10: that is all about protecting kids, strengthening resilience of kids,
9:23
Speaker 10: and supporting kids to be who they are.
9:25
Speaker 4: That's just nonsense.
9:27
Speaker 10: It's disgraceful nonsense. Like seriously, this sort of ongoing attack
9:34
Speaker 10: on a program that is making a difference in kids'
9:38
Speaker 10: lives just should be stopped.
9:40
Speaker 4: It should be stopped.
9:42
Speaker 2: Ah, look where to start neck a big endorsement.
9:46
Speaker 1: Yeah, well I've got to disappoint the premiere because I'm
9:49
Speaker 1: going to join the ongoing attack she's so worried about.
9:51
Speaker 1: Look this is it's just atrocious when you think of
9:54
Speaker 1: kids of five. I mean, I had kids, I had grandkids.
9:56
Speaker 1: I've been five. Just to think that they were going
9:59
Speaker 1: to school and taught that it's confusing, it's very distressing,
10:05
Speaker 1: and it's considerably distorting their minds to do to that age.
10:08
Speaker 1: There's no reason why you need to do it anyway.
10:10
Speaker 1: I mean, as I understand, dysmorphia, genuine dysmorphia that is
10:14
Speaker 1: very apparent in a child at a young age. It's
10:17
Speaker 1: a very rare condition, but it is very apparent from
10:20
Speaker 1: what I've read. So you don't need to be telling
10:22
Speaker 1: kids about stuff that's going to worry them about like
10:25
Speaker 1: this at that age. Indeed, I don't think you should
10:27
Speaker 1: be really telling them at all at school and let
10:29
Speaker 1: them decide who they are and let them, you know,
10:32
Speaker 1: identify as the gender in which they were born, unless
10:36
Speaker 1: a distress flag comes up and says otherwise, which, as
10:38
Speaker 1: I say, is very very rare. So this is all activism,
10:41
Speaker 1: isn't It's entirely the activist class using the classroom to
10:46
Speaker 1: further a cause. And it's disgraceful well as.
10:48
Speaker 2: A brainwashing the next generation. And that is what concerns
10:51
Speaker 2: me the most out of all of this layer. And
10:52
Speaker 2: you're a parent yourself, at nick is how worrying is
10:56
Speaker 2: this that this sort of nonsense is filtering into the
10:59
Speaker 2: correct and as a parent, you can't do anything about it.
11:04
Speaker 9: And I think that's the main point. You send your
11:06
Speaker 9: children to school. You don't expect this to be shoved
11:08
Speaker 9: down their throat. And look at the age of five,
11:10
Speaker 9: they don't know their times tables. There are more important
11:12
Speaker 9: things to be teaching these kids than to know that
11:15
Speaker 9: you can look down and well that actually isn't what
11:17
Speaker 9: your gender is. We spend enough time as parents, you know,
11:20
Speaker 9: walking our children through discussions about your personal safety and
11:24
Speaker 9: your body. We don't need teachers crossing the line into
11:26
Speaker 9: what our job is as a mother or a father.
11:29
Speaker 9: Or as a family and leading them through this. As
11:31
Speaker 9: I said, the talk is that it's basically a pipeline
11:34
Speaker 9: now from classrooms into decisions that will ruin these kids'
11:38
Speaker 9: lives if they make them.
11:39
Speaker 4: So it's really dangerous.
11:40
Speaker 9: And if that was happening at a school where my
11:42
Speaker 9: children were going for it was happening in a state
11:44
Speaker 9: where my children were going to school, I'd be up
11:46
Speaker 9: in arms about that. And I'd be very surprised if
11:48
Speaker 9: Victorian parents don't fight back on this one, because it
11:51
Speaker 9: is just outrageous. And the question is how many parents
11:54
Speaker 9: actually knew that was being taught to their children exactly?
11:58
Speaker 2: And I wondered to say myself it was this the
12:00
Speaker 2: case if it was exposed by the newspaper? Was this
12:02
Speaker 2: the first time they'd heard about it. I just think
12:04
Speaker 2: it's an absolute disgrace and just sin to Allen should
12:07
Speaker 2: hang ahead in shame for those sorts of comments that
12:09
Speaker 2: she made today as well. Now, look, defense officials in
12:12
Speaker 2: Washington are demanding Australia match European NATO spending levels of
12:16
Speaker 2: five percent of GDPs, saying Australia isn't spending anywhere near
12:21
Speaker 2: enough to be entitled to even for Pillar one of
12:24
Speaker 2: the Orchestel, which involves the US supplying at least three
12:28
Speaker 2: nuclear powered Virginia class submarines to US. Nick, so another
12:32
Speaker 2: ultimatum has been handed to us by the US. Are
12:36
Speaker 2: they unconvinced by this labor government.
12:38
Speaker 1: I think they probably are. We know the facts, and
12:41
Speaker 1: Alberniezi has not had a meeting with the president, although
12:44
Speaker 1: you have spoken to Mukmunda Bascle, so it's not as
12:47
Speaker 1: if he's entirely cut off from the world. But here's
12:51
Speaker 1: the point. We don't need America to tell us this.
12:52
Speaker 1: We know what's happening in our own backyard. We know
12:56
Speaker 1: how woeful the current state of our own defense forces,
12:59
Speaker 1: lack of sub marine's, lack of ships, lack of intelligence,
13:02
Speaker 1: lack of noose in using the new technologies of drones
13:05
Speaker 1: and counter drone technology. We shouldn't need this nudge from
13:09
Speaker 1: the United States to do it. We have to do it,
13:11
Speaker 1: and I would have thought five percent is a very,
13:13
Speaker 1: very sensible and reasonable goal given the size of economy
13:17
Speaker 1: like ours.
13:17
Speaker 2: I completely agree with you, and the problem is less.
13:20
Speaker 2: We're just not playing borre on this issue. The US
13:23
Speaker 2: has been warning us for months. We don't know what's
13:25
Speaker 2: going to happen now with the Orcus agreement. As Nick mentioned,
13:28
Speaker 2: the Prime minister still can't get a meeting with Donald Trump.
13:31
Speaker 2: How detrimental do you think will it be if Labor
13:34
Speaker 2: continue to bury their head in the sand.
13:38
Speaker 9: Well, Labor just has his deaf ear to what the
13:40
Speaker 9: US is saying. Over and over again. They're saying you
13:43
Speaker 9: need to lift up the defense spending. Albanesi is completely
13:47
Speaker 9: ignoring it has been quite steadfast and it to this
13:49
Speaker 9: point and at what cost because we are waiting for
13:51
Speaker 9: that review to come down into UCAS. Meanwhile, you've got
13:54
Speaker 9: Alberanzi who is out there happy to flirt with Beijing,
13:56
Speaker 9: happy to go out there and empower hermas, but won't
13:59
Speaker 9: actually toe thel when it comes to what the US
14:01
Speaker 9: are saying that we need. And if you think back
14:03
Speaker 9: to World War Two, we relied on the US. We
14:05
Speaker 9: relied on those friends becoming our lifeline. At what point
14:08
Speaker 9: when you've got Richard Miles saying we have the biggest
14:10
Speaker 9: military build up from China since World War Two, we
14:13
Speaker 9: shouldn't be saying. You know what the US are saying
14:15
Speaker 9: that for us to be part of this and have
14:17
Speaker 9: their support, we need to lift our defense spending.
14:19
Speaker 4: It's time for us to start listening.
14:21
Speaker 2: I completely agree with you. I think it's so frightening
14:24
Speaker 2: that our number one ally, we are clearly moving our
14:27
Speaker 2: policy away from the United States very very quickly, and
14:30
Speaker 2: it's a worry because we actually need the US for
14:33
Speaker 2: security purposes. Now. Look, just finally at Melbourne, teenager Archie
14:37
Speaker 2: Wilson has won over the US state of Nebraska after
14:40
Speaker 2: breaking down during a pre season press conference before he
14:44
Speaker 2: kicks off his college football career. Have a look.
14:47
Speaker 8: So, what's it like being first time you're away from them? Yeah,
14:51
Speaker 8: that part's hard. I mean, I'm sub sorry.
15:00
Speaker 11: Yeah, I love it a lot. Yeah, I got two
15:14
Speaker 11: little brothers in a moment. Yeah, that's the tough part
15:18
Speaker 11: about being here. I love them a lot and I
15:20
Speaker 11: missed them. But it's I mean, they know this is
15:23
Speaker 11: what's best for me, and I can still talk to
15:26
Speaker 11: them plenty of the phone, and they're coming here to
15:28
Speaker 11: see the first first few games, so I'm looking forward
15:31
Speaker 11: to that.
15:32
Speaker 8: All right.
15:32
Speaker 2: I've applaud him for his honesty. We're almost out of time,
15:34
Speaker 2: But a quick answer from both of you, Nicky's homesick,
15:36
Speaker 2: poor guy.
15:37
Speaker 1: We all get emotional times. I feel sorry for the guy,
15:40
Speaker 1: and to do it on television like that. A little
15:42
Speaker 1: tip by the way, and a politician told me this one.
15:45
Speaker 1: If you feel yourself about to tear up, use your tongue,
15:47
Speaker 1: chickle the roof of your mouth.
15:49
Speaker 2: It's a very quick actually, do you know what. I
15:52
Speaker 2: can see how that would work, Lisa, I've been good
15:54
Speaker 2: on him for his honesty.
15:55
Speaker 9: I say, look, I think the tears will endear him
16:00
Speaker 9: to the fans that he already has in that number
16:02
Speaker 9: will swell if you look at what's happening on social media.
16:04
Speaker 9: I expect he would become a favorite with the girls
16:06
Speaker 9: because he actually shows.
16:07
Speaker 4: He has a heart and he isn't scared to cry.
16:09
Speaker 12: Yeah.
16:09
Speaker 2: I feel like this is just the beginning for him.
16:11
Speaker 8: Me.
16:11
Speaker 2: He's got a huge career ahead, Lisa got Nick Kaita.
16:14
Speaker 2: Great to see you both, Thanks so much for joining
16:15
Speaker 2: me on the show. Well, media around the world and
16:19
Speaker 2: at home are being hoodwinked by Hamas propaganda, believing the
16:23
Speaker 2: lies being peddled out of Gaza from the terror group.
16:26
Speaker 2: One example is a death of our Jazeira journalist Onas
16:29
Speaker 2: al Sharif this week. Now the IDF claims the journalist
16:32
Speaker 2: was the head of a Hummas terrorist cell and advanced
16:35
Speaker 2: rocket attacks on Israeli civilians and IDF troops. It's since
16:40
Speaker 2: published intelligence and documents from Gaza, including rosters, terrorist training lists,
16:45
Speaker 2: and salary records, to prove that he was a Hamas
16:49
Speaker 2: operative integrated into our Jazira Now. The journal has also
16:54
Speaker 2: previously posed in photos with now dead Hamas leader Yaya Sinhwa.
17:00
Speaker 2: It's worth noting that OL Jazeera, by the way, is
17:02
Speaker 2: funded in part by Kuta, which has funded Hamas. Yet
17:07
Speaker 2: news of the journalist's deaths spread around the world, with
17:10
Speaker 2: headlines like this from the ABC Israel kills Al Jazeera
17:13
Speaker 2: journalists in Gaza airstrike. The IDx claims that he was
17:18
Speaker 2: working for Hamas just seemingly weren't even considered.
17:22
Speaker 13: Israel did target journalists in this case, didn't it.
17:25
Speaker 14: This was the office of Ol Jazeera, which had others
17:28
Speaker 14: in it.
17:28
Speaker 1: It was a tent.
17:30
Speaker 2: Joining me now for more on this is Sky News
17:32
Speaker 2: contributor Kel Richards Kel good to see you. Thank you
17:34
Speaker 2: for joining me. I mean it's not just this and me.
17:37
Speaker 2: Media around the world have been even quoting the Palestinian
17:40
Speaker 2: Health Ministry for years now and they are run by Hamas.
17:44
Speaker 2: But why do you think that the ABC has become
17:47
Speaker 2: so far to the left.
17:49
Speaker 15: It's a public broadcasting organization, so that the staff always
17:53
Speaker 15: had a bit of an inclination to be towards the left.
17:55
Speaker 16: But people have.
17:56
Speaker 15: Got to remember it wasn't always like this. I've done
18:00
Speaker 15: twenty five years at the ABC, which is about half
18:02
Speaker 15: my journalistic career, not in a row.
18:05
Speaker 16: I used to.
18:05
Speaker 15: I'd go from the commercials to the ABC and backwards
18:07
Speaker 15: and forth. So over that long period of time, I've
18:10
Speaker 15: seen the change. When I went there, we had an
18:13
Speaker 15: induction course and they said ABC staff never express opinions.
18:18
Speaker 15: That was the rule, and it had applied and the
18:21
Speaker 15: ABC genuinely was impartial and objective. What change was when
18:24
Speaker 15: the ABC took up a website and they had to
18:27
Speaker 15: fill lots of pages on the website. Then there was
18:30
Speaker 15: a decision made at management level to say to staff
18:33
Speaker 15: write opinion pieces. And suddenly that they just threw the
18:37
Speaker 15: switch from you won't express opinions if you're on our staff.
18:40
Speaker 16: To yes, yes, yes, do a lot of opinions.
18:42
Speaker 15: That decision that through the switch, that was the tipping
18:46
Speaker 15: point and they did it at a bad time because
18:48
Speaker 15: the other thing that was happening was the left wing
18:50
Speaker 15: around the world was becoming more belligerent and more intolerant.
18:55
Speaker 15: So let's not soft lift anymore. It's now hard lift.
18:58
Speaker 15: If you don't agree with us, you are not just wrong,
19:00
Speaker 15: you are evil. So that's what happened to the ABC.
19:04
Speaker 15: They made a decision to encourage staff to start expressing opinions.
19:08
Speaker 15: It's been disastrous ever since, but.
19:11
Speaker 2: In particular right now with this demonization of Israel, why
19:15
Speaker 2: is it so difficult for the left to not consider
19:19
Speaker 2: that Israel's actually fighting for its own survival.
19:22
Speaker 15: Because what happened in the left was they used to
19:25
Speaker 15: be soft they used to be socialists and you know,
19:27
Speaker 15: you look after poor people and that kind of thing.
19:29
Speaker 15: It's been totally captured by Marxist thinking. So now the
19:32
Speaker 15: left thinks there's only two groups of people in the world.
19:35
Speaker 15: There are oppressors and oppressed. That comes from Karl Marx,
19:38
Speaker 15: That's where it comes from. That was his big social analysis,
19:41
Speaker 15: and it's wrong. Society is not like that. Society is
19:44
Speaker 15: far more complex than that. But if you buy into
19:47
Speaker 15: that delusion, into that fairy tale, you've got to look
19:50
Speaker 15: at every story and say, who are the oppressors?
19:52
Speaker 16: Who are there? You've got to pick a side, So
19:55
Speaker 16: on the.
19:55
Speaker 15: Basis of their oppressors and oppressed, we will pick the
19:58
Speaker 15: side off I know the palacetine. They are the oppressed.
20:01
Speaker 15: So whoever's oppressing them, they have to be terrible villains.
20:05
Speaker 15: We can't believe anything they say and we have to
20:07
Speaker 15: criticize them the whole time. It's this bifurcated Marxist thinking
20:12
Speaker 15: which has captured the global lift and because the ABC
20:15
Speaker 15: is part of that, captured the ABC exactly.
20:18
Speaker 2: And I also think it's very dangerous when your own
20:20
Speaker 2: ideology has been brought into your workplace, when you're a
20:23
Speaker 2: taxpayer funded organization. The boss is saying do it, you know,
20:26
Speaker 2: and the bosses say do it. And that's half and
20:28
Speaker 2: that is half the battle. Now, look, I want to
20:30
Speaker 2: ask you about this. The ABC has been ridiculed for
20:32
Speaker 2: publishing an article claiming the use of gas fired boilers
20:36
Speaker 2: to heat public swimming pools in Melbourne was contributing to
20:39
Speaker 2: a rise and the city's carbon output. Now the public
20:42
Speaker 2: broadcaster has taken aim and a number of inner city
20:45
Speaker 2: Melbourne councils, saying as temperatures plummet in winter, heating community
20:50
Speaker 2: pools came at an environmental cost, and that the use
20:53
Speaker 2: of gas five boilers were making up as much as
20:56
Speaker 2: half of local councils greenhouse gas emissions. I mean, give
20:59
Speaker 2: me a seriously kel So they've singled out Darrabin Council
21:03
Speaker 2: here in particular. But the premise of this is that
21:06
Speaker 2: they're saying that swimming pools are now the enemy.
21:08
Speaker 16: Yeah, look, it's bizarre.
21:10
Speaker 15: But apart from the fact it's Victoria and its winter,
21:14
Speaker 15: unless they're heated, you can't swim. I mean, you've got
21:17
Speaker 15: to be realistic, but do the maths. Australia puts out
21:20
Speaker 15: something like one point three percent of the world's carbon
21:22
Speaker 15: dioxide emissions. Daribin City Council puts out what percentage of
21:27
Speaker 15: our one point three percent? You couldn't measure it, it would
21:29
Speaker 15: be so small.
21:30
Speaker 16: So it is ludicrous.
21:32
Speaker 15: But if you believe delusions, then you do step into
21:36
Speaker 15: the totally ludicrous.
21:37
Speaker 16: It is Alice in Wonderland stuff.
21:39
Speaker 2: It's really it's like they're trying to make a story
21:42
Speaker 2: out of nothing, out of a fairy tale.
21:44
Speaker 16: That's right.
21:45
Speaker 15: So any carbon dioxide emissions have got to be so evil,
21:49
Speaker 15: You've got to really get But it's just that makes
21:52
Speaker 15: no logical sense whatsoever. At some point common sense has
21:55
Speaker 15: to come into it. Can I give you a definition
21:57
Speaker 15: of common sense? Common sense is how things are, and
22:01
Speaker 15: they will not look at how things are instead of
22:03
Speaker 15: what they've got, this fantasy thing that a tiny amount
22:06
Speaker 15: from Darrebin's gas is going to destroy the pup place.
22:10
Speaker 2: Yes, so swimming pools. If you're watching at home and
22:12
Speaker 2: you want to take a deep but shame on you.
22:15
Speaker 2: You are contributing to climate change.
22:17
Speaker 8: Not good.
22:17
Speaker 2: Now, Look, the ABC did not even bother covering the
22:20
Speaker 2: Giggle Versus Tickle appeal case last week. That's, of course
22:23
Speaker 2: that what is a woman case where founder of Giggle
22:26
Speaker 2: for Girls app Salgrover, was found to have discriminated against
22:30
Speaker 2: biological man Rock sand Tickle for booting Tickle out of
22:32
Speaker 2: the female only platform. Yet the ABC found the time
22:36
Speaker 2: to publish this. Tam and Bobby Adventures take them from
22:39
Speaker 2: anti trans Florida to Tiny rappn'yup, a town in regional Victoria.
22:44
Speaker 2: The story is about a trans woman and their partner
22:46
Speaker 2: who have settled into the town, claiming it is inclusive
22:50
Speaker 2: for gender diverse people. So you know, they didn't want
22:53
Speaker 2: to cover giggle versus tickle help, but they were happy
22:56
Speaker 2: to cover this little puff piece.
22:58
Speaker 15: Why well, the bit that they were saying was good
23:02
Speaker 15: is simply normal Australian.
23:03
Speaker 16: Australians are relaxed.
23:04
Speaker 15: We don't get here, we mix, we don't know what
23:06
Speaker 15: you think, we don't care what you think you are.
23:08
Speaker 15: You're if we think you're a bit eccentric, that's okay,
23:11
Speaker 15: We'll still be nice and we'll still get on. That's
23:12
Speaker 15: what they found in this little country town Australianism. But
23:16
Speaker 15: what the ABC is? Can I say the unsayable?
23:19
Speaker 2: Please, please do it.
23:20
Speaker 15: Bobby is not a woman. I'm sorry, Bobby is not
23:23
Speaker 15: a woman. Bobby was born with x Y chromosomes. Bobby
23:27
Speaker 15: still has x y chromosomes. And they've got to play
23:30
Speaker 15: this pretense of if we can make this up into
23:32
Speaker 15: a nice story, then that will justify I know, boys
23:36
Speaker 15: going into girls, changing rooms and playing all that kind
23:39
Speaker 15: of thing. So the trans lobby is really aggressive. The ABC,
23:43
Speaker 15: by the way, has as a newsletter service called ABC Queer,
23:46
Speaker 15: which is just to ingratiate themselves with that particular community.
23:51
Speaker 15: So I just take it as part of their ideology
23:55
Speaker 15: that we only look at the world in terms of
23:57
Speaker 15: oppressors and oppressed, and we've decided these people areppresed. We're
24:00
Speaker 15: on their side, and we're against everyone who disagrees.
24:02
Speaker 2: Yeah, it goes back to your exact point earlier. It's
24:05
Speaker 2: an absolute disgrace. Oh well, another fun week over at
24:08
Speaker 2: the Public Broadcaster. As always, Cal Richard's good to see they.
24:11
Speaker 16: Paid for with our billion.
24:12
Speaker 2: Great with our money exactly, I may want more apparently,
24:15
Speaker 2: there you go, Cal, good to see. Thank you so
24:17
Speaker 2: much for joining me. Still to come, lefties losing it? Plus,
24:21
Speaker 2: Donald Trump threatens Russia with very severe consequences if Vladimir
24:26
Speaker 2: Putin does not agree to end the war in Ukraine.
24:30
Speaker 2: Army Horowitz will join me next. Now it is time
24:43
Speaker 2: for lefties losing it, starting with a PSA for MAGA
24:47
Speaker 2: supporters in Washington, d C. This dipstick is coming for.

24:55
Speaker 17: my cat, and everything else. Just you drive to DC
24:58

25:20
Speaker 2: up with this guy.
25:22
Speaker 18: Well, I'm doing it. I've had enough. I'm going to
25:27
Speaker 18: head for DC. Got almost up, packed up now coming

Speaker 18: to get there. Let's see what we can do if
25:50
Speaker 18: we all meet up together.
25:52
Speaker 2: What are they gonna do when they get down there?
25:54
Speaker 2: That's actually what I would like to know. What are
25:57
Speaker 2: their plans? Well, you know what this TD suffer has
26:00
Speaker 2: an idea.
26:01
Speaker 4: He thomp is basically taking over DC.
26:04
Speaker 15: Hello, is anybody out there?
26:05
Speaker 4: Is anybody in this thing?
26:07
Speaker 1: There's going to come a point where everybody realizes that
26:09
Speaker 1: there's no one coming to save us.
26:10
Speaker 4: Democrats are not going to be in a save us.
26:12
Speaker 12: The only thing you can do, it's massive resistance in
26:16
Speaker 12: the streets.
26:17
Speaker 2: A massive resistance to what to Laura, in order to
26:20
Speaker 2: tackling homelessness, I mean the left, that's just tedious insaying,
26:23
Speaker 2: aren't they now it's a Democratic nominee for New York
26:27
Speaker 2: mayor Zoran Mendanni, who has officially been given the kiss
26:31
Speaker 2: of death in this election day. I'm on my way
26:36
Speaker 2: to vote.
26:37
Speaker 5: I don't feel that I have ever been more excited
26:40
Speaker 5: to vote for anyone than I am to vote for
26:42
Speaker 5: Sauran Mamdani.
26:43
Speaker 2: I've got my button, I'm not mine.
26:46
Speaker 5: Don't rank Cuomo T shirt that I have the kids
26:49
Speaker 5: because I'm going to a polling site. We have a
26:51
Speaker 5: chance to make sure that our corrupt, sexual, harassing trump
27:00
Speaker 5: donor supported for disgraced former.
27:03
Speaker 2: Governor is not elected mayor of New York. Yes, ladies
27:08
Speaker 2: and gentlemen, the defeated, broken, and severely underwhelming Cynthia Nixon
27:13
Speaker 2: is manning the booths for Zoran. Dear God, you know
27:16
Speaker 2: who I'm talking about. You, the musician turned a political activist,
27:21
Speaker 2: turned financial counselor turned candidate for New York mayor. Have
27:25
Speaker 2: I have I missed anything else from Zoran's everything but nothing? Resume?
27:29
Speaker 2: Actually I forgot he was also a rapper. He was
27:32
Speaker 2: a rapper. How could I forget his illustrious career moonlighting?
27:36
Speaker 2: Is young Cardiman?
27:39
Speaker 12: Go ahead for your navy?
27:51
Speaker 2: Get it so impressive? A real star candidate? I mean,
27:54
Speaker 2: is there anything that this man has not done? He
27:57
Speaker 2: can even cry on Q.
28:00
Speaker 12: The're not Mark Zupper.
28:01
Speaker 2: Book, So Mark Superbird gets to buy another high.
28:07
Speaker 17: I trang to hold in a cough and I.
28:10
Speaker 2: Oh, I like bring this out and likely yeah, look,
28:22
Speaker 2: i'd probably cry too if I had to sit on
28:24
Speaker 2: a park bench with Elizabeth Warren. Now, can anyone please
28:28
Speaker 2: decode this gender confusion for me?
28:32
Speaker 3: So I'm not a girl, but I do have a girlfriend.
28:34
Speaker 3: But my girlfriend really isn't like a girl. So that's
28:37
Speaker 3: why I call them my boyfriend and they call me
28:40
Speaker 3: their boyfriend. But I'm not really like a boy really,
28:44
Speaker 3: so yeah, but we're both kind of like lesbians, but
28:47
Speaker 3: we're not really girls like that. And I kind of
28:50
Speaker 3: like boys too, So does that make sense?
28:53
Speaker 2: Gee? That must be absolutely exhausting trying to figure it
28:56
Speaker 2: out every day, whether you're a boy or a girl
28:58
Speaker 2: or a few like a woman or a man. That's
29:01
Speaker 2: probably one of the most challenging debarcles of our time,
29:04
Speaker 2: I'd say, And now look out, JK. Rowling.
29:08
Speaker 6: I can live about Harry Potters that trans kids can't
29:11
Speaker 6: live about transitioning.
29:13
Speaker 3: So you're not going to be checking out the new
29:14
Speaker 3: Harry Potty series on HEGXBO no cut.
29:16
Speaker 2: I have completely abandoned it.
29:20
Speaker 4: I have put all the gifts I've got for the.
29:22
Speaker 11: Last like twenty or so years into savach and I'm.
29:26
Speaker 4: Thinking of selling them to make's money for trans charity.
29:29
Speaker 2: It's just a spike mau sift ah jay. That's really
29:32
Speaker 2: going to put a real dent in Harry Potter sales worldwide,
29:36
Speaker 2: isn't it? And now look who has popped their sad
29:39
Speaker 2: little head up again. It's none other than the pathetic
29:41
Speaker 2: little gremlin herself, Greta Thunberg and her merry band of
29:45
Speaker 2: nose ringed hippies. Old is watching.
29:50
Speaker 8: Pray paasda.
29:52
Speaker 19: Free pre patas done, free, pre patas done, Pray pree
30:01
Speaker 19: pre parlersdime.
30:05
Speaker 2: Isn't it good to see that she's moved on from
30:07
Speaker 2: the climate change hoax and is dedicated her life's work
30:11
Speaker 2: now to wearing a kefier and screaming on stage. Well,
30:16
Speaker 2: Donald Trump has threatened very severe consequences for Russia if
30:20
Speaker 2: President Vladimir Putin does not agree to end the war
30:23
Speaker 2: in Ukraine after their meeting in Alaska on Friday.
30:27
Speaker 16: Yes they will. What will the wills there?
30:32
Speaker 20: Will be I don't have to say there will be
30:33
Speaker 20: very severe consequences.
30:35
Speaker 16: Yes.
30:36
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, Ukraine President Vladimir Zelenski says there is no sign
30:39
Speaker 2: that Russia is preparing to end the war.
30:42
Speaker 15: I told my colleagues and the United States presidents and
30:45
Speaker 15: my European friends that Putin doesn't want peace, he wants
30:49
Speaker 15: to occupy our country.
30:51
Speaker 2: Joining me now is filmmaker and commentator Army Horowitz. Army,
30:54
Speaker 2: good to see you as always. So look a bit
30:56
Speaker 2: of tit for tat already in anticipation of this big meeting.
31:00
Speaker 2: But there's a lot riding on it, isn't there.
31:04
Speaker 12: Yeah, of course, right. I mean this is a war
31:07
Speaker 12: that has preoccupied the world for years and continues right
31:13
Speaker 12: now with massive losses on both sides. Look, just let
31:17
Speaker 12: Trump cook, right, I mean, he does things his way.
31:21
Speaker 12: I'm out of the business of criticizing his style. It's
31:25
Speaker 12: just what he does. Yet, even though he has criticized
31:29
Speaker 12: and he has threatened Putin repeatedly, you still see the
31:34
Speaker 12: media trying to frame this as as him being overly
31:38
Speaker 12: conciliatory toward Putin. Right, Even the Washington Post and FT
31:43
Speaker 12: and others and CNN have literally compared this moment to
31:47
Speaker 12: Churchill to the Munich conference. Right, it's absolutely despicable. Do
31:51
Speaker 12: I have to remind everybody every single time of Trump's
31:55
Speaker 12: bona fides when it comes to defending Ukraine and fighting
31:58
Speaker 12: back against Russia, Right, I mean his the greatest hits.
32:01
Speaker 12: I mean the man. First of all, the man killed
32:04
Speaker 12: Russian soldiers in Syria. Right, Literally, he drilled baby drill,
32:10
Speaker 12: drove down energy prices across the globe, putting a serious,
32:15
Speaker 12: serious beating on the Russian economy. He increased sanctions, he
32:19
Speaker 12: sold the first president sell offensive weapons, actual weapons to Ukraine.
32:25
Speaker 12: And by the way, oh by the way, do we
32:29
Speaker 12: not remember that food invaded Ukraine twice, once under Obama
32:34
Speaker 12: and once under Biden, you know which presidency. He didn't
32:36
Speaker 12: invade Ukraine under Donald Trump. So yeah, let's just let
32:40
Speaker 12: the man do his thing and let's see what happens.
32:42
Speaker 2: I completely agree with you. Look, you know, he knows
32:45
Speaker 2: the art of a deal. He's a professional businessman. Let's
32:48
Speaker 2: sit back, see what happens. We're all very much watching
32:51
Speaker 2: in anticipation. Now, Army, the left wing media, they're having
32:54
Speaker 2: a total freak out, no surprises over Donald Trump's crime
32:58
Speaker 2: response in Washington, DC. But some liberals are actually backing it.
33:02
Speaker 2: Have a listen to CNN commentatort Se Cupp, who's actually
33:06
Speaker 2: a frequent critique of Trump. The numbers can be what
33:10
Speaker 2: they are.
33:11
Speaker 13: But also people don't feel that way.
33:13
Speaker 2: And when it comes to two things, crime in the economy,
33:15
Speaker 2: feelings don't really care about your facts.
33:17
Speaker 4: And I can't tell you how profoundly stupid.
33:19
Speaker 14: It is for Democrats to get up with their facts
33:22
Speaker 14: and their figures and their charts in the.
33:24
Speaker 2: Graphs and say, look, you're safe.
33:26
Speaker 12: Can't you read this chart?
33:27
Speaker 16: Idiots?
33:28
Speaker 13: Why are you complaining?
33:29
Speaker 2: I'm showing you right here how safe you are, So shut.
33:32
Speaker 8: Up and move along.
33:33
Speaker 2: And Joe Scarborough on msn BA say he also backed it.
33:37
Speaker 2: I mean, have these liberals finally come to their senses?
33:40
Speaker 2: Do you think?
33:42
Speaker 12: No?
33:43
Speaker 1: Not at all.
33:45
Speaker 12: Yeah, you give it too much credit. Yeah, of course
33:48
Speaker 12: there are a couple of examples on them, but overall
33:50
Speaker 12: you continue to see this freak out across major media
33:54
Speaker 12: for this. Look, Deny Gatto, do you know but in
33:57
Speaker 12: America our states have state mottos on license plates, right.
34:04
Speaker 12: My favorite one is New Hampshire, Live for or Die,
34:07
Speaker 12: and my very close. Number two is DC on their
34:11
Speaker 12: license plate has taxation without representation. Love it look, but
34:17
Speaker 12: it does speak to the issue we're talking about d C.
34:20
Speaker 12: Like I'm a believer, generally, I tend to air for
34:25
Speaker 12: state rights over federal rights. Right, that's just kind of
34:27
Speaker 12: the way built the way I look at the Constitution
34:30
Speaker 12: and how this and how this US country has been built.
34:35
Speaker 12: But here's the thing. DC is not a state constitutionally speak,
34:39
Speaker 12: it's a district of Columbia. It doesn't have a vote.
34:42
Speaker 12: That's the way. It is under the purview of the
34:45
Speaker 12: federal government. So so Donald Trump is well within his
34:48
Speaker 12: rights to take this action in Washington, d C. Now
34:52
Speaker 12: that's legally, but should he look DC is a problem,
34:56
Speaker 12: Like I know that the media is trying to contort
34:58
Speaker 12: themselves into trying to twist the numbers and say there's
35:01
Speaker 12: no problem. Anyone who's been in DC knows just from
35:05
Speaker 12: the eye test, there is a significant problem in washingt DC,
35:08
Speaker 12: just anecdotally. But even if you take their statistics on
35:13
Speaker 12: face value, and by the way, I don't necessarily do
35:14
Speaker 12: that because there's a lot of controversy on crime statistics
35:18
Speaker 12: in big blue cities where they actually reclassify crime as
35:21
Speaker 12: lower crimes, they don't count as the heavy crimes. But
35:24
Speaker 12: even if you took their numbers on face value, yes
35:27
Speaker 12: there's been a bit of a dip. But today today
35:30
Speaker 12: we're talking about a city that has twice the homicide
35:34
Speaker 12: death of Bogota, Columbia, which I was there a couple
35:38
Speaker 12: of months ago. It is a horrific, terrible city, twice
35:42
Speaker 12: the murder rate, and by the way, it has five
35:45
Speaker 12: times a murder rate of the US in general. So
35:47
Speaker 12: there's obviously a problem there that has to be dealt
35:50
Speaker 12: with the media refuses to acknowledge that because then you
35:53
Speaker 12: have you get to a larger problem of well, who's
35:55
Speaker 12: coming the crimes and is this becoming a whole racist
35:58
Speaker 12: thing like That's that bring us into their trying of
36:01
Speaker 12: like they always do, to use race to hide what
36:05
Speaker 12: they want to do. Look, I think the problem is
36:08
Speaker 12: that it's going to increase the Democrats motivation to try
36:12
Speaker 12: to make DC state not difficult but not impossible. We
36:16
Speaker 12: should give them another another vote, another senator, another congressman,
36:22
Speaker 12: another two senators, another congressman in Congress, which obviously be
36:26
Speaker 12: a problem and look solving crimes. Denika is not really
36:30
Speaker 12: that difficult. Don't be permissive and prosecute crimes. There we
36:34
Speaker 12: solved it.
36:35
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's actually as simple as that. No, look spot
36:38
Speaker 2: on the But I do agree, I do. I think
36:39
Speaker 2: this means that all the lefties have come to their
36:41
Speaker 2: senses just yet. Now look at New York City Democratic
36:44
Speaker 2: Meyrill nominee Zoran ma'm dami has maintained a strong lead
36:49
Speaker 2: in the race. According to a recent Siena poll of
36:52
Speaker 2: registered voters, ma'am Dani is polling at forty four percent.
36:55
Speaker 2: Former Governor Andrew Cuomo, who's running as an independent, is
36:59
Speaker 2: at twenty five percent, Curtis Sliwa at twelve and incumbent
37:03
Speaker 2: Mayor Eric Adams sitting at seven percent. What do you
37:06
Speaker 2: make of this, Ahmi.
37:10
Speaker 12: It's a problem, I make it's a real problem. I mean, yeah,
37:13
Speaker 12: Eric Adams at seven percent, that was a real shocker
37:16
Speaker 12: and a real significant problem if you want to try
37:18
Speaker 12: to get Cuomo aud like, the only way to try
37:20
Speaker 12: to even possibly win this is get Cuomo out of
37:22
Speaker 12: the race. But Cuomo now has the argument saying I'm
37:26
Speaker 12: the one who's done. I'm more than three times Eric Adams. Look,
37:30
Speaker 12: here's the problem. Even with all that dropping out not
37:33
Speaker 12: dropping out, it might not even make a difference. Look,
37:35
Speaker 12: I was told by your producers, Dadika, that there wouldn't
37:37
Speaker 12: be math on the show, but yet you're forcing me
37:40
Speaker 12: to do math. If I add up twenty five, twelve
37:44
Speaker 12: and seven, that's forty four percent, and that's where Mamdanie is.
37:49
Speaker 12: It's a dead heat if you if everyone dropped out
37:51
Speaker 12: except for one person, which is not happening. So that's
37:54
Speaker 12: a significant problem for New York City, New York. Look,
37:58
Speaker 12: if you elect him, I'm a new I live in
38:00
Speaker 12: New York. I have an apartment here, right, my kids
38:02
Speaker 12: live here. You buy the ticket, you take the ride.
38:06
Speaker 12: What can I tell you? You know? And by the way,
38:07
Speaker 12: this thing is so crazy, right that there were reports
38:11
Speaker 12: that Cuomo called Donald Trump asking him for help to
38:15
Speaker 12: do something here. That's how incenes become. No, it's gonna
38:18
Speaker 12: be fascinating to see what happens.
38:20
Speaker 2: Oh gosh, I mean, surely let's hope that the voters
38:23
Speaker 2: aren't that stupid to put him in their pleas well.
38:27
Speaker 2: We'll find out now. Army the woke and very tiring
38:30
Speaker 2: and tragic response to Sidney Sweeney's American Eagle ad campaign.
38:34
Speaker 2: We know it exploded on social media, but elsewhere it's
38:37
Speaker 2: a different story. According to a new survey, just twelve
38:40
Speaker 2: percent of Americans said that they found the campaign offensive.
38:44
Speaker 2: So army twelve percent. The Lizos of the world can
38:48
Speaker 2: get stuffed.
38:51
Speaker 12: Yeah, okay, look in doing my research for this piece. Yes, people,
38:58
Speaker 12: I know when you hear me, you're like, he must
38:59
Speaker 12: be you must do no show prep at all, But
39:01
Speaker 12: I actually do. Okay, So for my show PRIP, I
39:04
Speaker 12: had to watch the ad a number of times. I'm sorry.
39:07
Speaker 12: This is because I'm That's how hard I work for
39:10
Speaker 12: this show. Okay, look, let me let me say this.
39:14
Speaker 12: The people like who opposed it, right, Yeah, I think
39:18
Speaker 12: they're all card carrying members of Fatties for Palestine. I
39:22
Speaker 12: think that was the only group opposed it. Look now,
39:27
Speaker 12: there the surprising number, wasn't That surprising number was the
39:30
Speaker 12: twelve percent that had no opinion. I mean that had
39:34
Speaker 12: that all had to have been men whose wives were
39:37
Speaker 12: watching them as that pole was happening. Okay, it's impossible
39:42
Speaker 12: not to have a view on that pole. But again, unsurprisingly, also,
39:48
Speaker 12: men overwhelmingly found that ad to be more clever than women.
39:52
Speaker 12: I'm shocked.
39:53
Speaker 2: So yeah, no.
39:54
Speaker 12: Actually, another actually really fascinating thing from a cultural and
39:58
Speaker 12: political perspective is, if i'd be serious for a second,
40:01
Speaker 12: is that it's so interesting to watch how the vandicks
40:04
Speaker 12: flip over time. Like now, a lot of the aside
40:09
Speaker 12: from the people calling it, you know, neo nazi, the
40:12
Speaker 12: waste supremacist, forget them for a second, but a lot
40:14
Speaker 12: of people on the left are taking offensive because the
40:17
Speaker 12: over sexualization of women is anti feminists.
40:20
Speaker 8: Right.
40:20
Speaker 12: That's kind of like a view people have taken, which
40:22
Speaker 12: is so interesting because twenty five years ago it would
40:25
Speaker 12: have been the right, the Republicans who were saying, hey,
40:27
Speaker 12: we have a problem with this, with this, with this
40:30
Speaker 12: ad because it's overly sexualized. So I think it's fascinating.
40:32
Speaker 2: I think it's really fascinating too. And you're right, I
40:34
Speaker 2: think there were a lot of women staring over their
40:37
Speaker 2: men watching that ad for sure. Now, look, US Attorney
40:41
Speaker 2: General Pam Bondi has ordered a grand jury investigation into
40:45
Speaker 2: an alleged conspiracy by the Obama administration to tie Donald
40:48
Speaker 2: Trump to Russia. I here was the president overnight, you know.
40:52
Speaker 20: They got this phony investigation going on Russia. Russia Russia
40:56
Speaker 20: totally phony created by Adam Shift, Shifty Shift and Hillary
41:01
Speaker 20: Clinton and the whole group of him, and it made
41:04
Speaker 20: it very dangerous for our country because I was unable
41:06
Speaker 20: to really deal with Russia the way we should have
41:08
Speaker 20: been a We're looking at PAM because I hope something's
41:10
Speaker 20: going to be done about.
41:11
Speaker 2: It, so Ami Russia get his back.
41:16
Speaker 12: Yeah, it really Russia game, Russia, Russia, Russia and the
41:19
Speaker 12: Russia hoax one of the great stays on our American
41:23
Speaker 12: intelligence community, and I think they'll be Frankly, I think
41:25
Speaker 12: they'll be paying the price for a long time. Look,
41:28
Speaker 12: the only proof we have actual proof of collusion with
41:32
Speaker 12: Russia on tape is when Obama and Miyetyev got to
41:37
Speaker 12: have pronounced is the lapdog of Putin's name when he
41:40
Speaker 12: took that one four year term because he had to
41:44
Speaker 12: try to make it legal for him to continue his dictatorship.
41:48
Speaker 12: Was when the Russian leader at Obama had an off
41:51
Speaker 12: mic meeting. It was actually on a hot mic, and
41:54
Speaker 12: he leaned into him and said, hey, you know, just
41:56
Speaker 12: give me a little bit of negotiating maneuver room for
41:59
Speaker 12: this defense thing. Once I win the election, will be good.
42:03
Speaker 12: That's the only collusion with Russia I've actually proof of,
42:08
Speaker 12: you know, he had. The President had a really great
42:10
Speaker 12: point and so true about how this Russia hoax did
42:13
Speaker 12: have an effect on foreign policy. Uh, any move he
42:16
Speaker 12: would make in terms of trying to get negotiating power
42:19
Speaker 12: with Russia, trying to say, hey, you know, invite him
42:22
Speaker 12: to the White House, or say hey we we'll use
42:24
Speaker 12: a carrot of decreasing sanctions if you do X, Y
42:27
Speaker 12: or z all. He was I'm sure conscious of looking
42:31
Speaker 12: overly conciliatory to to putin. Because of that, it really
42:35
Speaker 12: boxed him in foreign policy wise. Ironically, it actually may
42:39
Speaker 12: have made it may have made it tougher on Russia
42:41
Speaker 12: because of that. So there are probably maybe some positive
42:44
Speaker 12: dowshingm effects. But yeah, that kind of you know, that
42:47
Speaker 12: politicalization of intelligence really had an effect on foreign policy,
42:53
Speaker 12: and that's I think that a detriment of this country
42:56
Speaker 12: and the way we view the intelligent establishment.
42:59
Speaker 2: Yeah, look doubt about it. Be interesting to see what
43:02
Speaker 2: comes out of it. Armi Horowitz. Always great to see you.
43:05
Speaker 2: Thank you so much for joining me on the show.
43:07
Speaker 2: Still to come, Season two of Meghan Markle's Disastrous with
43:10
Speaker 2: Love Meghan is already facing backlash and it hasn't even
43:15
Speaker 2: been launched yet. Kinsey Schofield tell us why next welcome back?
43:29
Speaker 13: Well.
43:29
Speaker 2: Meghan Markle is facing criticism over her decision to feature
43:32
Speaker 2: Chrissy Tagan on season two of her cooking show with
43:35
Speaker 2: Love Meghan, after the controversial model was shown in the
43:39
Speaker 2: trailer for the series. Joinning Me now for more on
43:41
Speaker 2: this is celebrity and royal commentator Kinsey Schofield, Kinsey, thanks
43:45
Speaker 2: for joining me. Why the backlash against Chrissy Tagan?
43:49
Speaker 13: Yeah?
43:49
Speaker 8: So.
43:50
Speaker 14: Megan Markle has worked to reship her public image by
43:52
Speaker 14: championing the fight against online harassment, often citing her own
43:57
Speaker 14: experiences as proof.
43:59
Speaker 13: Of the damage it can cause.
44:01
Speaker 14: That's why her close association with Chrissy Teagan is raising eyebrows,
44:05
Speaker 14: because Teagan has publicly confessed to targeting a teenage Courtney
44:10
Speaker 14: Staden with cruel messages and even encouraging self harm over Twitter.
44:15
Speaker 13: You know, it's a mixed message.
44:17
Speaker 14: You can't condemn digital abuse while aligning yourself with someone
44:21
Speaker 14: who once personified it. The stance risks implying that cyberbullying
44:25
Speaker 14: only matters when it affects you.
44:28
Speaker 2: Yeah, good point, I'd be very curious as well to
44:31
Speaker 2: know how this latest series is going to shape up
44:34
Speaker 2: after it was such a flop in the first Now
44:37
Speaker 2: and Insider has revealed further details about Taylor Swift's upcoming album,
44:41
Speaker 2: The Life of a show Girl, and it's reportedly set
44:45
Speaker 2: to contain some distracks Kinsey.
44:50
Speaker 14: I mean, obviously, I think we're suspecting that there might
44:52
Speaker 14: be something about Blake Lively in there, because we saw
44:56
Speaker 14: that one of the titles on the album is Ruined
44:59
Speaker 14: the friend I don't know if you'll remember this, but
45:02
Speaker 14: Insider say Swift felt used and exploited by Blake Lively,
45:06
Speaker 14: who allegedly tried to leverage Swift's Swift's, you know, bigger
45:09
Speaker 14: name and presence against her case against Justin Baldoni. So
45:15
Speaker 14: Ruin the Friendship. Everybody's eyebrows are kind of perked up
45:18
Speaker 14: over that, and then they suspect she might take a
45:20
Speaker 14: swipe at Donald Trump, potentially with The Daily Mail reporting
45:24
Speaker 14: that the new album isn't political. But Swift was motivated
45:29
Speaker 14: by the excitement around Kamala when she recorded some of
45:34
Speaker 14: these songs, and Taylor has a point to prove.
45:37
Speaker 13: And is ready to silence people who say it. You know,
45:40
Speaker 13: you go broke, go woke, go broke.
45:43
Speaker 14: I guess she's trying to challenge that with this latest album.
45:46
Speaker 2: Yeah, clearly, but we'll see how it goes if it
45:49
Speaker 2: did have an impact on her career. Now, this is interesting.
45:52
Speaker 2: The Tonight Show Starring at Jimmy Fallon achieved its highest
45:56
Speaker 2: rating episode since twenty twenty three, when Fallon hosted news
46:00
Speaker 2: late night host Greg Gutfield and the Jonas Brothers last week. Kinsey,
46:05
Speaker 2: what does this suggest do you think?
46:08
Speaker 14: I think it suggests that you they're going to have
46:10
Speaker 14: to startnow. The mainstream is going to have to start
46:14
Speaker 14: acknowledging some of these conservative personalities. I mean, Greg Guttfeld
46:19
Speaker 14: averages two point nine million total viewers a month.
46:23
Speaker 13: When it comes to Fox News.
46:24
Speaker 14: I think, like he has incredible numbers on Fox News.
46:28
Speaker 14: He is higher like ratings wise, I think he rates
46:32
Speaker 14: higher than Jimmy Kimmel, then Stephen Colbert and these regular
46:38
Speaker 14: guys on mainstream broadcasts, So they need to acknowledge him.
46:42
Speaker 13: He's incredibly funny. I've worked with him before.
46:44
Speaker 14: I enjoy him immensely, and you know, if I were
46:47
Speaker 14: in BC, I would have Greg fill in for Jimmy
46:50
Speaker 14: Fallon whenever he needs a little break and watch those
46:53
Speaker 14: numbers spike.
46:54
Speaker 2: Oh good point. Yeah, but I don't know how Jimmy
46:56
Speaker 2: Fallon would feel about that. He might be worried about
46:58
Speaker 2: his job perhaps. Now Look, Leonardo DiCaprio, who is fifty
47:02
Speaker 2: years old, has said that he feels emotionally thirty five
47:07
Speaker 2: during an interview with Paul Thomas Anderson, the director of
47:10
Speaker 2: upcoming film One Battle after Another, which DiCaprio will star in.
47:14
Speaker 2: Oh look, Kinsey, no One, that he only dates young women.
47:19
Speaker 14: I can't believe that this is a real conversation that
47:21
Speaker 14: we're having. Yeah, this was an interview for Esquire, and
47:24
Speaker 14: he later gave a more serious answer.
47:26
Speaker 13: You know, he's going to be fifty one in November.
47:29
Speaker 14: He said, you have a desire to just be more
47:31
Speaker 14: honest and not waste your time, and that's how it
47:33
Speaker 14: feels to be fifty. But somebody should tell that to
47:36
Speaker 14: the twenty five year old models that he cycles through.
47:39
Speaker 14: I mean, I think that that was honestly the most
47:42
Speaker 14: truth we've ever gotten out of Leonardo DiCaprio in an interview.
47:46
Speaker 14: The man looks and acts like he's thirty five. Well
47:50
Speaker 14: not maybe, but with the caps and with the covers,
47:52
Speaker 14: you know.
47:52
Speaker 13: What I'm talking about.
47:54
Speaker 2: Yeah, it just reminds me of that Sabrina Carpenter's song Manchild.
47:57
Speaker 2: I feel like perhaps he's Leonardo DiCaprio personified and he
48:02
Speaker 2: feels emotionally thirty five. Please now look. A fresh lawsuit
48:06
Speaker 2: is alleging that Elvis Presley's ex wife, Priscilla exploited daughter
48:10
Speaker 2: Lisa Marie's health crisis to gain control of her father's estate,
48:14
Speaker 2: yanking life support from when her heart stopped. Kinsey. Priscilla
48:19
Speaker 2: has come out and she's strongly denying these claims.
48:23
Speaker 14: Can you believe this? This is the wildest thing I've
48:25
Speaker 14: seen in a very long time. So yes, Priscilla Presley,
48:28
Speaker 14: ex wife of Elvis Presley, She's facing this fifty million
48:31
Speaker 14: dollar lawsuit and this is from former business associates.
48:35
Speaker 13: I mean, this is serious misconduct.
48:37
Speaker 14: In this legal filing, they alleged that Priscilla made the
48:40
Speaker 14: decision to turn off Lisa Marie's life support before her
48:43
Speaker 14: daughter Riley Keo was able to get to the hospital,
48:46
Speaker 14: and despite Lisa Marie having signed a directive to prolong
48:51
Speaker 14: her life. The suit says Priscilla figured Lisa Marie's death
48:54
Speaker 14: would end her daughter's efforts to remove Priscilla as the
