Speaker 1: On scorn Us Australia. This is the winder Panalty Show.
0:08
Speaker 2: Good evening and welcome to the Rita Panety Show.
0:11
Speaker 3: Coming up tonight, One Nation sets its sights on David
0:14
Speaker 3: Little Proud's seat. Patrick Carline and Michael Danby will join
0:18
Speaker 3: me on the panel to cover the day's top headlines.
0:21
Speaker 3: Business leader Chris Ghana why he's fighting back against the
0:25
Speaker 3: corporate world's anti Australia Day push. Liberal Party backs Labour's
0:30
Speaker 3: Haste Speech bill despite gaping flaws. Professor Johanna Howe explains
0:34
Speaker 3: why the bill will do more harm than good, and
0:38
Speaker 3: a top Us drama is taking on woke culture head
0:42
Speaker 3: on I'll get Kosher Gator's reaction to Landman tackling the
0:46
Speaker 3: excesses of the trans movement, and later in the hour,
0:50
Speaker 3: comic Alex Stein explains why he's personally agreed about Nicholas
0:55
Speaker 3: Maduro's arrest and left He's losing It features this arming lady.
1:03
Speaker 4: You can just kill ACE agents. You know that you
1:05
Speaker 4: can just kill them. They don't have to hold your
1:07
Speaker 4: phone in their face.
1:09
Speaker 3: But first, Pauline Hanson will attempt to unseat David Little
1:12
Speaker 3: Proud at the next federal election. As One Nation looks
1:15
Speaker 3: to grow their presence in Queensland. It comes just two
1:19
Speaker 3: months after One Nation secured Little Proud's predecessor, Barnaby Joyce.
1:23
Speaker 3: As We're reported last night, the latest News poll has
1:27
Speaker 3: One Nation ahead of the Coalition in primary votes. A
1:30
Speaker 3: senior One Nation source told News Corps the party had
1:34
Speaker 3: finalized and agreement for an office space in the town
1:37
Speaker 3: of long Reach, which is within the.
1:40
Speaker 2: Little Proud's electorate.
1:42
Speaker 3: Poulleen Hanson was asked whether One Nation could become a
1:46
Speaker 3: viable alternative government at the next election.
1:50
Speaker 5: I think what Australia is lacking now with both the
1:53
Speaker 5: major political parties is leadership and people have got to
1:58
Speaker 5: a stage they're fed up enough both putting us at
2:01
Speaker 5: twenty two percent of the national poll at the moment
2:04
Speaker 5: that says I've got a hell of a job ahead
2:06
Speaker 5: to give me with my other colleagues, and we've got
2:09
Speaker 5: to maintain that support and confidence from the Austraian people
2:13
Speaker 5: that we can hopefully form government and too right, I
2:17
Speaker 5: want to do it.
2:18
Speaker 3: Joining me now as News Corps senior writer Patrick Carline
2:21
Speaker 3: and former Labor MP Michael Danby, Patrick David littl Proud
2:26
Speaker 3: holds a very comfortable margins around twenty percent. There was
2:29
Speaker 3: a small swing to one nation to the last federal
2:32
Speaker 3: election in his seat. Can they realistically unseat him?
2:36
Speaker 6: Probably not, to be honest, twenty percent is a lot,
2:38
Speaker 6: but it's what it symbolizes. If you look at that pole,
2:42
Speaker 6: it found that almost one in two Australian voters intend
2:45
Speaker 6: not to.
2:46
Speaker 1: Vote for either the Labor or the Liberal Party.
2:48
Speaker 6: That's one in two who won't vote for the government
2:51
Speaker 6: in power of the day. And we're seeing that fragmentation.
2:54
Speaker 6: We're seeing it with the Greens previously, but it's all
2:56
Speaker 6: going to one nation at the moment.
2:58
Speaker 1: Those numbers are huge.
3:00
Speaker 6: The Liberals are in disarray and it's part of an
3:02
Speaker 6: international trend as well. If you look at Britain you
3:05
Speaker 6: see all those Conservative defections to reform.
3:08
Speaker 1: I mean there is a real right leading push.
3:11
Speaker 2: Oh absolutely.
3:12
Speaker 3: I mean it's been apparent Michael. Internationally, the Liberal Party,
3:18
Speaker 3: the Coalition have missed it. We've spoken about it on
3:20
Speaker 3: this program for years, the fact that there are so
3:23
Speaker 3: many people in this country who feel they're not properly represented.
3:27
Speaker 3: And I think the Tories found that out in the UK,
3:30
Speaker 3: the Libs learned zero lessons. If they remain weak and
3:34
Speaker 3: direction lists, could you see one Nation gaining even greater popularity,
3:39
Speaker 3: perhaps snatching a few more National MPs, and down the
3:44
Speaker 3: track possibly a coalition between One Nation and the Nationals.
3:49
Speaker 7: I think it's more likely that One Nation's influence will
3:51
Speaker 7: grow in the Senate. I'm not sure because of our
3:58
Speaker 7: preference system, that's where that we were going to see
4:02
Speaker 7: one Nation win that many lower house seats, although I
4:05
Speaker 7: think they will win some. Most significant thing about this
4:08
Speaker 7: news poll and the Channel nine pole is that shows
4:12
Speaker 7: if you combine the One Nation and Liberal National Party
4:15
Speaker 7: vote that they've gone up several percent. The government is unpopular,
4:20
Speaker 7: so I still think Albow with his ninety five seat
4:23
Speaker 7: majority is likely to win, but he might get a
4:26
Speaker 7: big shock with a very big swing at the next
4:28
Speaker 7: election and Rita. The real thing to look for is
4:31
Speaker 7: One Nation having the swing factor in the Senate. I
4:34
Speaker 7: could see them getting as many as ten or maybe
4:36
Speaker 7: twelve senators.
4:38
Speaker 3: Well, when you saw that Demo's pole that came out
4:40
Speaker 3: about a week before News poll, which also had One
4:43
Speaker 3: Nation ahead of the coalition in the primary vote, they
4:46
Speaker 3: looked at the two party preferred and when it was
4:50
Speaker 3: Labor and One Nation, it was fifty to fifty. When
4:52
Speaker 3: it was Labor and the Coalition, it was fifty two
4:54
Speaker 3: forty eight in Labour's favor.
4:56
Speaker 2: So we are seeing things.
5:00
Speaker 3: I think a few years ago you would have never
5:01
Speaker 3: thought a party like Reform could be created and be viable,
5:07
Speaker 3: and here we are. Nigel Farage could be the next
5:10
Speaker 3: Prime Minister of Britain and could pull in hands on
5:13
Speaker 3: one day be Prime Minister.
5:15
Speaker 1: Wow, that's a big apple.
5:17
Speaker 2: I mean, she's in the Senate, but I could see
5:19
Speaker 2: your having.
5:20
Speaker 7: A majority in the Senate and determining Australian policy like
5:23
Speaker 7: the Greens do with Labor. You know, they could easily
5:27
Speaker 7: have ten or twelve senators and say to the Liberal
5:30
Speaker 7: National Party or you have to go more right Woods.
5:33
Speaker 3: Well, the Greens have pulled both the Libs and Labor
5:37
Speaker 3: to the left for many years, so perhaps there's need
5:40
Speaker 3: for a correction now. Last week we saw the chaos
5:44
Speaker 3: of the Adelaide Writers Week. The festival backflipped on its
5:48
Speaker 3: decision to uninvite anti Israeli author Randa Abdelhatar and in
5:55
Speaker 3: the end.
5:55
Speaker 2: Issued her an apology.
5:57
Speaker 3: Michael, we had dozens of writers pulled out in protest.
6:00
Speaker 3: We even had the former New Zealand Prime Minister just
6:04
Speaker 3: Dern pull out. How do you see this saga and
6:08
Speaker 3: how it concluded?
6:10
Speaker 2: And also including.
6:12
Speaker 3: Louise Adler's role in the whole catastrophe.
6:15
Speaker 2: She was the director of Adelaide Writer's week.
6:18
Speaker 7: I think it's sad to see that these people who
6:22
Speaker 7: are the main perpetrators of censorship and hate speech turning
6:26
Speaker 7: themselves into victims. If you watch the ABC and listen
6:29
Speaker 7: to the Guardian, that's what they've become. They've changed the
6:31
Speaker 7: narrative completely. In fact, they're the ones who excluded Tom Friedman,
6:37
Speaker 7: the former agent to Michael Gwenda, has been trying to
6:39
Speaker 7: get a guernsey at.
6:40
Speaker 1: The Adelaide Writers' Festival.
6:41
Speaker 7: He put it in the Weekend Australian this weekend couldn't
6:44
Speaker 7: get a guernsey. The twenty four Jewish women have written
6:47
Speaker 7: that really good book on the last two years called Ruptured,
6:51
Speaker 7: Never Invited and Runder Rabbel Fattara. Apparently at the Perth
6:54
Speaker 7: Riders Festival tried to exclude the musician Deborah Conway. So
6:59
Speaker 7: the boots really on the foot and Comrade Adler is
7:02
Speaker 7: really asked, been asked by the Premier and the Adelaide
7:08
Speaker 7: Writers Board to be a bit more balanced, have a
7:11
Speaker 7: few different people, that's the way we should do it,
7:13
Speaker 7: you know. But she's refused, and she's stayed these provocations
7:17
Speaker 7: and thanks to the mainstream media, she's been able to
7:20
Speaker 7: turn herself into a martyr.
7:22
Speaker 3: But these writers' festivals, Patrick, really are just left wing
7:27
Speaker 3: talk fest. I was going to use a less polite
7:31
Speaker 3: term than that, but really it's not about celebrating diversity
7:37
Speaker 3: of thought or debate or even the best writers in
7:40
Speaker 3: the country. It is a lefty talk fest, often funded
7:45
Speaker 3: by our taxes, and.
7:47
Speaker 1: It's often about activism.
7:48
Speaker 6: It's about ideology rather than good writing or a difference
7:52
Speaker 6: of ideas. And Michael, you put it very nicely. I mean,
7:56
Speaker 6: what's happened here is you've got this very.
8:00
Speaker 2: In.
8:01
Speaker 6: The fashionable pro Palestine riders are in, the activists are in,
8:05
Speaker 6: and a lot of really good writers have been sort
8:08
Speaker 6: of completely booted off the schedule altogether in a way
8:11
Speaker 6: that's not healthy.
8:12
Speaker 1: There should be.
8:13
Speaker 6: Lots of different views and there should be good debates,
8:15
Speaker 6: and that's not happening.
8:17
Speaker 3: It is not And Peter Malinascus, I think one a
8:22
Speaker 3: few fans by backing the removal or Abdol Fhatar has
8:27
Speaker 3: also caught a lot of criticism for it, but I
8:29
Speaker 3: think in the end he's come out on the right
8:32
Speaker 3: side there, Michael.
8:33
Speaker 7: But what a weak board to disinvite then reinvited her.
8:38
Speaker 7: Don't they have any principles? Don't they see what Runda
8:42
Speaker 7: Abba Fatara is written? Don't they see what comrade Adler
8:46
Speaker 7: was up to the whole time. I mean it's clear
8:48
Speaker 7: from the correspondence that's been released that the board's been
8:51
Speaker 7: struggling for years to have the Adelaide Writers Festival just
8:54
Speaker 7: a little bit more balanced. What's wrong with aon Heireciali?
8:57
Speaker 7: She appears on this station quite often on PE program.
9:00
Speaker 7: She's a great writer, as you say, Patrick, And to
9:03
Speaker 7: have her excluded, to have GWNDA excluded, to have all
9:07
Speaker 7: of these people excluded because they don't sort the political
9:11
Speaker 7: predilections of comrade Adler, it's just you know, unfair and not.
9:15
Speaker 3: Whatsf Herciali would want to have any part with this.
9:21
Speaker 7: Well, she didn't know it was as bad as it is,
9:22
Speaker 7: just like Tom Friedman probably didn't.
9:24
Speaker 3: Yeah, possibly, I mean, yeah, why someone of her standing
9:29
Speaker 3: would want to get involved in the Adelaide Writers Festival
9:33
Speaker 3: would be beyond me. And I just think about how
9:36
Speaker 3: that looks. You've got a woman who survived an Islamist upbringing,
9:42
Speaker 3: a victim of female genital musulation, who's had colleagues.
9:46
Speaker 2: Murdered in this three three she saw it.
9:48
Speaker 3: He needs security everywhere she goes because of extremists want
9:52
Speaker 3: to murder her. And then she's been victimized by these
9:56
Speaker 3: pack of hacks in Adelaide.
9:59
Speaker 2: Are you hitting? I don't know why should even give
10:01
Speaker 2: them a time of day now.
10:03
Speaker 3: The massacre of protesters in Iran has served as a
10:08
Speaker 3: warning of what an authoritarian regime can do under the
10:12
Speaker 3: cloud of digital darkness. The Internet has been completely shut
10:16
Speaker 3: off in Iran for days as protested suffered in silence
10:20
Speaker 3: and patrick. Two days ago, internet access was briefly restored
10:24
Speaker 3: in parts of Iran for a few minutes, and it
10:27
Speaker 3: really revealed just a full scale of the horror there,
10:31
Speaker 3: of the blood bloody crackdown.
10:34
Speaker 1: Look, it's terrific.
10:34
Speaker 6: I mean, you're talking about piles of bodies on street corners.
10:38
Speaker 6: They're talking about wounded protesters going to hospital and being
10:41
Speaker 6: executed because in the hospital yeah, being shot in the forehead.
10:46
Speaker 1: I mean, this is off the charts.
10:47
Speaker 6: This is as bad as anything we heard from October seven,
10:52
Speaker 6: twenty twenty three. It is horrific, and the world has
10:55
Speaker 6: sort of still buying, sort of let it happen.
10:57
Speaker 1: Yes, where are the protests?
10:58
Speaker 6: Where is the up rising against this rasime to say
11:02
Speaker 6: this is evil, this needs to be treated and it needs.
11:05
Speaker 1: To be fixed.
11:05
Speaker 3: And this protest in Iran has been michael led by women,
11:11
Speaker 3: and yet the feminist movement in the West has pretty
11:14
Speaker 3: much abandoned these women. It is not interested in standing
11:20
Speaker 3: with them. It's not interested in supporting these freedom fighters
11:23
Speaker 3: in Iran and all those Free Palestine protests.
11:26
Speaker 2: Where are they.
11:27
Speaker 7: It's the same as with the systematic rapes that were
11:31
Speaker 7: involved with the harmacetrocity on October seven. They tried to
11:36
Speaker 7: ignore it because it doesn't fit.
11:37
Speaker 1: In with their narrative.
11:38
Speaker 7: Wouldn't it be better, reader if people just looked at
11:41
Speaker 7: what was happening and took a stand on the basis
11:43
Speaker 7: of what's right and wrong, have some ethics. That's terrible
11:47
Speaker 7: to kill sixteen five hundred people in Iran, To have
11:52
Speaker 7: pickup trucks standing on street corners in Tehran with heavy
11:55
Speaker 7: machine guns shooting anyone who comes outside. This is outrage.
12:00
Speaker 7: I hope President Trump is taking some action because I
12:03
Speaker 7: think this is a hinge of history which should be moved.
12:05
Speaker 7: We need to get rid of these people. They are
12:07
Speaker 7: even causing terrorism here in Australia, as Azio said, with
12:11
Speaker 7: that expulsion of the Iranian ambassador.
12:13
Speaker 3: And we're having the same people who uncritically accepted Hermas's
12:17
Speaker 3: figures of the death toll dispute the numbers and suddenly
12:21
Speaker 3: you can't possibly know how many have been killed, and
12:25
Speaker 3: you can't.
12:25
Speaker 2: Possibly trouble stand against coming.
12:27
Speaker 1: It's just good point.
12:29
Speaker 3: Appalling before we go, just to have a quick look
12:32
Speaker 3: at what Prince Harry is doing. He is suing another publisher,
12:35
Speaker 3: Daily Mail, for fourteen articles that he says used information
12:40
Speaker 3: that was unlawfully obtain.
12:42
Speaker 2: You're right.
12:42
Speaker 3: For the nine week trial at the Royal Court of
12:45
Speaker 3: Justice in London on Monday, Associated Newspapers strongly denies there
12:49
Speaker 3: was any unlawful information gathering and said the Duke of
12:52
Speaker 3: Sussex's social circle was and was known to be a
12:56
Speaker 3: good source of leaks or disclosure of information to the media.
13:00
Speaker 3: What he got up to in his private life. Patrick
13:03
Speaker 3: seems to be just having this mendetta against the media,
13:09
Speaker 3: despite the fact that him and his wife don't seem
13:12
Speaker 3: to have a job other than tell all interviews. So
13:15
Speaker 3: whilst he's protecting his privacy and fleeing the UK, we've
13:20
Speaker 3: got reality shows, We've got airing of dirty laundry and
13:25
Speaker 3: endless lawsuits.
13:26
Speaker 6: A nine week trial I sat through a long trials.
13:28
Speaker 6: Nine weeks is a long time. You wouldn't choose unless
13:31
Speaker 6: you are really committed.
13:32
Speaker 1: It is weird. I agree with you. Why would you
13:34
Speaker 1: go to this length?
13:35
Speaker 6: And from afar, it's difficult to know do they actually
13:38
Speaker 6: have any evidence of unlawful obtaining of information because if
13:43
Speaker 6: they don't, I wouldn't have thought it's going to get anywhere.
13:45
Speaker 2: No, it gives them something to do.
13:47
Speaker 3: It seems to be their full time job, essentially to
13:50
Speaker 3: cry to the media and then go through the media.
13:52
Speaker 3: So good luck to you, Prince Harry Patrick, Carline, Michael Damy,
13:56
Speaker 3: thank you so much for your time tonight. The Albaniezy
13:59
Speaker 3: governments Hates Beach laws have passed the House of Representatives
14:02
Speaker 3: with support from the Liberals and some National MPs. The
14:05
Speaker 3: bill passed with one hundred and sixteen votes for and
14:08
Speaker 3: seven votes against. The legislation states an organization could be
14:12
Speaker 3: prohibited in order to protect the Australian community against social, economic,
14:17
Speaker 3: psychological and physical harm.
14:20
Speaker 2: But some Coalition MPs have questioned elements.
14:23
Speaker 3: Of the hate group provision, including what could constitute psychological harm.
14:28
Speaker 3: Professor Joanna Howe has raised these similar concerns and joins me, now, Joina,
14:34
Speaker 3: what are the dangers of this legislation?
14:37
Speaker 8: Reader? In my fifteen years as a legal academic, I've
14:39
Speaker 8: never seen a piece of legislation more terrifying and threatening
14:43
Speaker 8: to Australia's democracy. On the weekend, the Abanesi government said
14:48
Speaker 8: that they were ditching the hate speech elements of the
14:51
Speaker 8: law the any qualification provisions. But what we found out
14:53
Speaker 8: today at ten am when it was publicly released, is
14:56
Speaker 8: that they had inserted some of the worst elements of
14:59
Speaker 8: this ill to the definition section in one one four
15:02
Speaker 8: and so what this means is the bill actually criminalizes
15:05
Speaker 8: hurt feelings. So if someone in the target group has
15:08
Speaker 8: hurt feelings, experiences fear as a result of somebody else,
15:12
Speaker 8: another Australian criticizing let's say, immigration from Islamic countries, and
15:16
Speaker 8: that's a very reasonable position to take given that these
15:19
Speaker 8: Islamic countries are not democratic. They do not allow freedom
15:22
Speaker 8: of speech or freedom of religion. Christians are persecuted in
15:25
Speaker 8: these countries, and in fact, in these countries women are
15:28
Speaker 8: severely oppressed. So if an ordinary Australian criticizes that under
15:33
Speaker 8: these new provisions, if a Muslim member of the Australian
15:36
Speaker 8: community feels fear, then that person is a member of
15:40
Speaker 8: a hate group and they could go to jail for
15:41
Speaker 8: fifteen years. This bill will lead to ordinary, innocent, law
15:46
Speaker 8: abiding Australians being sent to jail, which is something that
15:49
Speaker 8: should never happen in a Western democracy.
15:54
Speaker 3: Well, tell me about the definition of hate crime. Precisely
15:59
Speaker 3: what constitutes a hate crime under this legislation.
16:03
Speaker 8: So this legislation has been introduced as a result of
16:06
Speaker 8: Bondai under the guise of Bondai, But many of us
16:10
Speaker 8: are questioning how could they have drafted something like this
16:13
Speaker 8: so four hundred five hundred page legislation so quickly. It
16:16
Speaker 8: seems like the Abanzi government had this onslaught of freedom
16:19
Speaker 8: of speech in their back pocket, waiting for an opportunity
16:22
Speaker 8: like Bondai to use as a pretext for introducing it,
16:25
Speaker 8: because the bill says that it's about targeting anti Semitism,
16:28
Speaker 8: but it doesn't target radical Islam. In fact, any religious
16:33
Speaker 8: faith leader, So any Christian pastor who says that we
16:36
Speaker 8: shouldn't be having immigration from Islamic countries because it's so
16:39
Speaker 8: antithetical to Western democracy or to Christianity, they can go
16:43
Speaker 8: to jail as a result of this, and their entire
16:46
Speaker 8: Christian church could be designated as a hate group, and
16:49
Speaker 8: any member of that church could then go to jail
16:51
Speaker 8: for ten years. So the way that the threshold has
16:54
Speaker 8: been defined in one one four is to say that
16:56
Speaker 8: if someone in the target group, a reasonable person in
16:58
Speaker 8: the target group feel fear for their safety viz. Fear
17:02
Speaker 8: for being harassed, well, then that is the threshold met.
17:05
Speaker 8: And it's extraordinarily broad. They've thrown procedural fairness out the window,
17:09
Speaker 8: so you can actually be designated as a member of
17:12
Speaker 8: a hate group without any letter being written to you,
17:14
Speaker 8: without any opportunity to appeal, without any opportunity to argue
17:18
Speaker 8: your side of the story. Minister Tony Burk has been
17:21
Speaker 8: given huge powers under this law, and it even applies retrospectively,
17:25
Speaker 8: so those Australians who are marching for our country at
17:29
Speaker 8: those anti immigration marches a little while ago. If there
17:33
Speaker 8: was something there that was said that was against Islamic immigration,
17:35
Speaker 8: well then you know this could apply retrospectively and the
17:39
Speaker 8: members of those groups could be designated hate groups and
17:41
Speaker 8: they could go to jail. I cannot believe reader, that
17:44
Speaker 8: Susan Lee has done a dirty, grubby deal with the
17:47
Speaker 8: Labor Party to vote for this bill. The Liberals have
17:51
Speaker 8: completely let down and betrayed every single ordinary Australian who
17:55
Speaker 8: believed that they were a party that stood up for freedom,
17:57
Speaker 8: fundamental freedoms of speech, of religion and for democracy.
18:01
Speaker 3: Well that can explain why one nation is soaring in
18:04
Speaker 3: the polls, Joanna, do you expect to see these laws,
18:06
Speaker 3: which you say are ready dangerous extended further with the
18:11
Speaker 3: Greens wanting to see hate speech and hate group definitions extended.
18:16
Speaker 8: A woman like Pauline Hanson, who I honestly believe is
18:19
Speaker 8: one of the bravest women in the country. She has
18:22
Speaker 8: been speaking against immigration policy that goes against Australian values
18:26
Speaker 8: for decades now. But what this bill means is she
18:29
Speaker 8: could go to jail because if one nation fights against
18:33
Speaker 8: Islamic immigration. After Bondie then that they could be designated
18:37
Speaker 8: a hate group and as the director of that hate group,
18:39
Speaker 8: she could go to jail for fifteen years now, Pauline
18:41
Speaker 8: Hanson has already been to jail because of Labor and
18:45
Speaker 8: the Liberals joining together. They banned her from the Parliament.
18:47
Speaker 8: She's not even in the Parliament this week. That's how
18:50
Speaker 8: anti democratic and authoritarian the two major parties have become.
18:53
Speaker 8: And Australians are waking up. We are seeing one Nation
18:56
Speaker 8: and Pauline Hanson rising in the polls and I think
18:58
Speaker 8: that we could have a see situation here in Australia
19:01
Speaker 8: which is very similar to the Trump phenomenon in the
19:03
Speaker 8: US and the Nigel Farage phenomenon in the UK. Because
19:06
Speaker 8: people are sick and tired are There are over thirty
19:09
Speaker 8: arrests a day in the UK over freedom of speech,
19:12
Speaker 8: over things that people say online. And what the Greens
19:14
Speaker 8: have said Rita is that this is not the end
19:16
Speaker 8: of it for them. They want to see these freedom
19:19
Speaker 8: of speech restrictions not just about race, but about gender
19:22
Speaker 8: and about and about sexuality and so you know, you
19:25
Speaker 8: might remember Julian Portius was hauled through the tribunal system
19:30
Speaker 8: for nine months because of a transactivist, because he had
19:32
Speaker 8: written a booklet that said, don't mess with marriage. He
19:35
Speaker 8: put the case for traditional marriage between a man and
19:38
Speaker 8: a woman. He was under these laws that are being
19:40
Speaker 8: passed today when the Greens extended and I say when,
19:43
Speaker 8: not if, because it will happen. When the Greens extended
19:46
Speaker 8: to sexuality. That could literally mean that someone like Archbishop
19:49
Speaker 8: Portius who took that stand, he could go to jail
19:52
Speaker 8: for fifteen years. And indeed the Catholic Church could be
19:54
Speaker 8: designated a hate group under this law. That's how draconian
19:57
Speaker 8: it is and it has no place in the country.
20:02
Speaker 2: Professor Johanna, how thank you so much for your time.
20:05
Speaker 2: Thank you now.
20:06
Speaker 3: While many corporates are shying away from publicly marking Australia Day,
20:11
Speaker 3: the Faulkner Property Group, who own shopping centers around the country,
20:15
Speaker 3: are proudly celebrating our national holiday. Chief investment officer and
20:20
Speaker 3: founder Chris Gano says he hopes Australia Day can be
20:23
Speaker 3: a source of unity after the Bondai terror attack and
20:27
Speaker 3: is imploring other businesses to join him in celebrating our
20:32
Speaker 3: country and a recent poll by the Institute of Public
20:35
Speaker 3: Affairs validates that move, finding over three quarters of Australians
20:39
Speaker 3: support Australia Day. On January twenty sixth, Chris Gano joins me. Now, Chris,
20:45
Speaker 3: you've said you won't about to woke corporate bs. Tell
20:50
Speaker 3: me why you feel so strongly about Australia Day and
20:53
Speaker 3: how you will be marking the occasion across your shopping centers.
20:58
Speaker 9: Well, firstly, Radit, thank you very much for having me.
21:01
Speaker 9: There's two I suppose reasons. Number one is I love
21:03
Speaker 9: my country, I respect my country. I was born here,
21:07
Speaker 9: I am Australian. She only has, contrary to popular opinion,
21:10
Speaker 9: one national day. And if we can't show her the
21:13
Speaker 9: gratitude and respect on her national Day, the twenty sixth
21:15
Speaker 9: of January, when the hell else can we do it.
21:18
Speaker 9: It's either the twenty sixth of January or bust. And secondly, reader,
21:22
Speaker 9: and more importantly, we own shopping centers. Our customers will
21:27
Speaker 9: love shopping. Look, the shopping center is the EPI center
21:31
Speaker 9: of the community. And if you think about what Australia
21:34
Speaker 9: Days about, it's actually about community. And the shopping centers
21:38
Speaker 9: are the EFPI center of communities and you think everything
21:42
Speaker 9: goes on in the shopping center, and if you think
21:44
Speaker 9: about it in where we are, in the suburbs and
21:47
Speaker 9: the regions where mister and misters Joe Average shop, they
21:51
Speaker 9: love our Australia Day celebrations. We're not trying to pitch
21:55
Speaker 9: in our shopping center's reader to the elites, to the
21:58
Speaker 9: intellectually and morally superior to you and Ireta. We are
22:02
Speaker 9: pitching to mister Joe Average. You know, the people who
22:05
Speaker 9: want to come to our shopping center, wave the flag, loud,
22:08
Speaker 9: proud and absolutely love it. We did it last year
22:11
Speaker 9: and I can tell you, Rhada, it's not only good
22:14
Speaker 9: for the soul. It's not only good for your country, Darling,
22:17
Speaker 9: it is fantastic for business.
22:22
Speaker 3: Well, they're going to be people in their inner city
22:25
Speaker 3: suburbs of Melbourne and Sydney who are going to be upset.
22:28
Speaker 3: But you saw a big boost in sales last year
22:31
Speaker 3: during that period when you were.
22:33
Speaker 2: Celebrating Australia Day proudly. So the masses are with you.
22:38
Speaker 3: But in the corporate sector and the media, what you're
22:42
Speaker 3: doing is seen as controversial.
22:44
Speaker 9: Well, isn't it extraordinary that's celebrating your country's national day.
22:51
Speaker 9: Isn't it extraordinary that it's a new story. I mean,
22:55
Speaker 9: it's amazing that this is actually used a bloke in
22:58
Speaker 9: the corporate world, who are one hundred million visitors a
23:01
Speaker 9: year to his assets. By the way, one hundred million,
23:04
Speaker 9: four times the population of Australia visit our assets every year.
23:09
Speaker 10: But let me give you some quick stats.
23:11
Speaker 9: Last year our foot traffic in one CenTra alone, all
23:15
Speaker 9: the foot traffics were either double or tripled on our
23:17
Speaker 9: Australia weekends, which means we took business off somebody else.
23:21
Speaker 9: But in one of the centers in Gladstone in Quinlan
23:24
Speaker 9: eighty we were up seventeen percent.
23:26
Speaker 10: On foot traffic.
23:27
Speaker 9: These are mind boggling numbers. There is mind boggling as
23:31
Speaker 9: the IA poll this work that's got ninety percent of
23:33
Speaker 9: kids at a day twenty four going ossi, ossi oi
23:36
Speaker 9: oi oi. Woke is finished.
23:40
Speaker 2: Now you've declared woke is over. That is a big call.
23:43
Speaker 3: But before you go, tell me about what is happening
23:46
Speaker 3: in the corporate sector when it comes to activism. Are
23:50
Speaker 3: they still as active as they have been pushing SG
23:54
Speaker 3: and d IE policies. We saw the corporate sector in
23:57
Speaker 3: this country almost unanimously the voice A couple of years ago.
24:02
Speaker 9: Yep, yeah, I mean if you pressed and repeat that,
24:05
Speaker 9: I don't think you'd see that again after the voice. Clearly,
24:09
Speaker 9: if you look at the United States, there's all the
24:10
Speaker 9: markers that mark off ESGDI markers, you know just what,
24:14
Speaker 9: there's indexes.
24:15
Speaker 10: You can follow.
24:16
Speaker 9: And for the last three or four years, if you
24:18
Speaker 9: look at the ASX, the ODS exchange, which is still
24:20
Speaker 9: sort of let's call it semiway, a lot of those
24:23
Speaker 9: things are just drifting. And what they don't do reader,
24:25
Speaker 9: they don't chop them over off. Do you know what
24:27
Speaker 9: I mean. You don't chop your HR department overnight. What
24:30
Speaker 9: do you do is you progressively change your policies, and
24:32
Speaker 9: you progressively change your incentive systems, and you progressively change
24:36
Speaker 9: because little things. Because ultimately, as a listed company, you
24:41
Speaker 9: have one responsibility. It's to your shareholder, and I have
24:44
Speaker 9: exactly the same responsibility as a private company.
24:47
Speaker 1: It's to my unit holes.
24:48
Speaker 9: But most important is to the customers mister and missus
24:51
Speaker 9: Joe average that are shopping in my shopping centers. That's
24:55
Speaker 9: where my obligation is to those people. And as of
24:58
Speaker 9: five minutes ago, my good friend. Reader, we just settled
25:01
Speaker 9: Inner Air an a fair in New South Wales.
25:03
Speaker 1: I'm delighted to say so.
25:04
Speaker 9: The biggest chopping center in New South Wales, Didial, will
25:07
Speaker 9: be celebrating Australia this weekend. So if you're in Gosport,
25:10
Speaker 9: if you're in the district, get down to Aeron Affair
25:12
Speaker 9: because you will see Australian flags flying loudly and proudly
25:16
Speaker 9: and Australian activities and the whole theme is concentrated on
25:20
Speaker 9: the whole campaign Reader's called It's never been more important
25:24
Speaker 9: to love being Australian.
25:28
Speaker 3: Chris Garno, you're a force of nature. Thank you so
25:31
Speaker 3: much for your time tonight.
25:32
Speaker 9: Thank you so much for having me.
25:33
Speaker 1: Reader.
25:34
Speaker 2: Still to Karma left he is losing it and finally
25:36
Speaker 2: a top of.
25:37
Speaker 3: You astrama is taking on what culture head on? I'll
25:41
Speaker 3: get kosher Gator's reaction to the hit series Landman. Next,
25:55
Speaker 3: you're watching the Reader Paney Show and it's time for
25:58
Speaker 3: lefties losing it. And let's start with fallen celebrity Ellen DeGeneres,
26:02
Speaker 3: who is such a horror show that she's been variously
26:05
Speaker 3: described by staff and guests as toxic, terrifying, manipulative, demeaning,
26:11
Speaker 3: and the worst and meanest.
26:13
Speaker 2: Person I've met.
26:14
Speaker 3: Yes, that fake persona the down to earth girl with
26:17
Speaker 3: a Sunday disposition. Well, that all fell apart when those
26:21
Speaker 3: who worked with Ellen exposed what she was really like
26:24
Speaker 3: behind the scenes, including this terrifying tidbit from a cameraman
26:28
Speaker 3: who alleged that an employee was pressured to move their
26:32
Speaker 3: child's bone marrow transplant to accommodate Ellen's schedule.
26:37
Speaker 2: Yikes.
26:37
Speaker 3: So naturally we are just desperate to know what Lefty Ellen,
26:42
Speaker 3: who fled Trump's America to move to the UK, thinks
26:45
Speaker 3: about ice and efforts to deport illegal immigrants.
26:49
Speaker 11: Hey, everybody, I just wanted to say, I am so
26:52
Speaker 11: sorry for what is happening in Minneapolis in our country really,
26:58
Speaker 11: but specifically many at right now, because it's where I
27:02
Speaker 11: shut my last stand up special, and everybody there couldn't
27:06
Speaker 11: have been more lovely. I shout it there because they
27:08
Speaker 11: say it's the happiest city in America, and I found
27:14
Speaker 11: that to be true. So my thoughts and my prayers
27:17
Speaker 11: are going out to everyone, and I'm proud of everyone
27:20
Speaker 11: who's protesting peacefully, and I am sorry for anyone who has.
27:24
Speaker 10: Been hurt.
27:29
Speaker 11: Just for protesting, for doing what you should be doing.
27:33
Speaker 2: Or she's proud of the protesters.
27:35
Speaker 3: Is sheared the supposedly peaceful protesters who spit on ice
27:40
Speaker 3: agents who attack them, try to run them.
27:42
Speaker 2: Over, and good news.
27:44
Speaker 3: These feral protesters aren't just busying themselves storming churches and
27:48
Speaker 3: attacking law enforcement and trying to help criminals escape deportation.
27:52
Speaker 3: They're devoting a whole day to a walkout. This is
27:56
Speaker 3: a campaign headed by actress Francis Fish.
28:00
Speaker 2: She's as mad as hell.
28:02
Speaker 10: I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not gonna take
28:05
Speaker 10: it anymore.
28:06
Speaker 12: On January twentieth, we are walking out to free.
28:09
Speaker 10: America and walking in to remove the regime. We're walking
28:12
Speaker 10: out of work, walking out of school, We're walking out
28:15
Speaker 10: of anywhere and everywhere because it's past time that we
28:18
Speaker 10: stop cooperating with fascism.
28:22
Speaker 3: It all sounds a little bit insurrectiony to may that
28:26
Speaker 3: want to remove the regime, as they call it. That
28:29
Speaker 3: mean the democratically elected president who won in a landslide.
28:34
Speaker 4: Congress has the power to remove a tyrant from office.
28:38
Speaker 10: It's not an option, it's their sworn duty.
28:40
Speaker 12: So at three pm we'll start walking into local congressional
28:44
Speaker 12: offices to demand impeachment and removal.
28:47
Speaker 4: We are peacefully demanding that our representatives filed their own
28:51
Speaker 4: articles of impeachment against.
28:53
Speaker 2: Trump and senior Trump officials.
28:55
Speaker 10: And we are demanding that they force a vote.
29:00
Speaker 12: Trump has committed tuity and obstruction of justice.
29:02
Speaker 3: And turning ICE into a paramilitary force is an act
29:06
Speaker 3: of treason.
29:07
Speaker 13: On January twentieth, we are telling our congressional officials that
29:11
Speaker 13: it is their duty right now to impeach convict and
29:14
Speaker 13: remote impeach.
29:15
Speaker 4: Convict and remote impeach convict and remove.
29:19
Speaker 3: Yeah, but what they're talking about there is a peaceful coup,
29:22
Speaker 3: an insurrection, probably something the FBI should be keeping an
29:26
Speaker 3: eye on and talking about. The FBI, they're going to
29:29
Speaker 3: investigate the storming of a church in Minneapolis by anti
29:32
Speaker 3: ICE activists who terrorize parishioners, including children, and guess who
29:37
Speaker 3: was there with them, Pharmacy and and hack Don Lemon.
29:41
Speaker 14: Just imagine it's uncomfortable and traumatic for people here. But again, careful,
29:45
Speaker 14: it's very slippy right here. It's uncomfortable and traumatic for
29:48
Speaker 14: the people here, But that's what really careful, please really slippery,
29:52
Speaker 14: not kidding that's what protesting is about.
29:56
Speaker 3: And so that's what protesting is all about, terrifying young children.
30:01
Speaker 3: You can see kids there being forced to leave the
30:03
Speaker 3: church service that should be saved in the sanctity of
30:07
Speaker 3: a church. This is your idea of a righteous protest
30:11
Speaker 3: a terrified child.
30:13
Speaker 2: They're being comforted by adults.
30:15
Speaker 3: I mean, what sort of an absolute callous clown is
30:18
Speaker 3: Don Lemon? And if you think he's taken any accountability
30:22
Speaker 3: for his part in this activism, you'd be wrong.
30:25
Speaker 2: Apparently anyone upset must be a white.
30:28
Speaker 14: Supremacist, and there's a certain degree of entitlement. I think
30:31
Speaker 14: people who are you know, in the religious groups like that.
30:34
Speaker 14: It's not the type of Christianity that I practice, but
30:37
Speaker 14: I think that they're entitled and that that entitlement comes
30:40
Speaker 14: from a supremacy, a white supremacy, and they think that
30:44
Speaker 14: this country was built for them, that it is their
30:45
Speaker 14: Christian country, when actually we left England because we wanted
30:48
Speaker 14: religious freedom. It's religious freedom, but only if you're a
30:51
Speaker 14: Christian and only if you're a white male pretty much,
30:53
Speaker 14: and so yeah, absolutely, one hundred percent. But it's an
30:56
Speaker 14: intimidation tactic. And you know, I said, I don't underst
31:00
Speaker 14: and how I've become the feace of it. When I
31:01
Speaker 14: was a journalist, I do understand that I'm the biggest name.
31:04
Speaker 2: There where does one start.
31:07
Speaker 3: So if you object to a mob of crazed lunatic
31:10
Speaker 3: storming a church during Sunday service, frightening little kids of
31:14
Speaker 3: all colors, then you're a selfish.
31:17
Speaker 2: Entitled white supremacist.
31:19
Speaker 3: That's the story you're running with, Don And interesting that
31:22
Speaker 3: he chose to speak there to Jennifer Welch, the uniquely
31:26
Speaker 3: awful hard left hater who cheered on those who called
31:30
Speaker 3: for conservatives to be killed, including those who defended the
31:34
Speaker 3: murder of Charlie Kirk.
31:36
Speaker 2: She's so full of bile and hater.
31:38
Speaker 3: The fact that she has any presence on mainstream media
31:42
Speaker 3: like MSNBC, ms NOW shows you how.
31:45
Speaker 2: Far the left half fallen.
31:46
Speaker 3: Here she is with male Karen Jimmy Costa talking about
31:50
Speaker 3: mass arresting her political opponents, including the likes of Elon
31:54
Speaker 3: Musk and President Trump.
31:56
Speaker 12: Lu Tsunami means that Congress is going to haul Elon Musk,
32:01
Speaker 12: big balls and a bunch of other people's ass in
32:04
Speaker 12: front and say what crimes did you commit? And it's
32:07
Speaker 12: going to get really serious and the same with Trump
32:09
Speaker 12: because I believe, and this is just my opinion, that
32:13
Speaker 12: Trump and all of the bottom feeding morons surrounding him,
32:17
Speaker 12: an Elon Musk and all the bottom feeding clinger honors
32:20
Speaker 12: that surround him, I think they commit crimes every day,
32:22
Speaker 12: and I think to reconcile all of this is going
32:26
Speaker 12: to take hardcore, not integrity democrats Q democrats than over
32:34
Speaker 12: our country. We are serious about this, we are prosecuting.
32:37
Speaker 2: There you go.
32:38
Speaker 3: She wants to round up her political opponents and to
32:41
Speaker 3: use her words there She is not interested in integrity democrats.
32:44
Speaker 3: She wants those who will weaponize the justice system again
32:48
Speaker 3: to attack conservatives.
32:50
Speaker 2: How did that work out the last time? Jen now
32:52
Speaker 2: Long said, a.
32:53
Speaker 3: Septum ring is a signal to the world, a warning
32:56
Speaker 3: of serious mental health issues.
32:59
Speaker 2: And here is further proof of that theory.
33:01
Speaker 3: This woman, this woman, I think doesn't just need a
33:04
Speaker 3: strike jacket.
33:05
Speaker 2: I think she needs a jail cell.
33:07
Speaker 4: You can just kill ice agents. You know that, you
33:10
Speaker 4: can just kill them. You don't have to hold your
33:11
Speaker 4: phone in their face and ask people when their birthday is,
33:14
Speaker 4: and ask people what their name is and then try
33:16
Speaker 4: to find wherever they end up in Los Angeles, you
33:20
Speaker 4: can kill them. This isn't about social media cloud anymore.
33:24
Speaker 4: This isn't about video, This isn't about the phone. This
33:27
Speaker 4: is about get a gun and start killing ice agents.
33:31
Speaker 4: They are deputized corrections officers. Kill them now.
33:37
Speaker 3: While Hollywood continues to alienate half their potential audience by
33:41
Speaker 3: being stupidly woke at every given opportunity, there are those
33:45
Speaker 3: in an entertainment sector bucking the trend.
33:47
Speaker 2: Not many, mind you.
33:48
Speaker 3: But there are programs like The Brilliant Landman that mock
33:52
Speaker 3: the left. Here the program confronts the excesses of the
33:56
Speaker 3: trans movement, including the obsession with pronouns.
34:00
Speaker 10: So what are your pronouns?
34:02
Speaker 2: My pronouns? I hope that's pretty clear. Yeah, I don't
34:08
Speaker 2: make assumptions. You could identify as a sunflower.
34:10
Speaker 15: You know.
34:11
Speaker 2: I've been told I look like one.
34:13
Speaker 16: I use the them, you know, I've always been curious
34:19
Speaker 16: why they're them.
34:21
Speaker 2: Because there's just one of you, and those are plural pronouns.
34:23
Speaker 2: Just never really understood the hoopla pronouns.
34:27
Speaker 16: My name's Ainslie, and I just can't really come up
34:31
Speaker 16: with a reason why you would address me a third
34:33
Speaker 16: person in a conversation that I'm a part of.
34:35
Speaker 2: So if you do, I'm probably not there.
34:37
Speaker 16: So I wouldn't really know what pronouns you were using anyways,
34:41
Speaker 16: So why would it matter.
34:42
Speaker 17: This is my safe space and I need my environment
34:45
Speaker 17: crafted to support my mental health.
34:47
Speaker 3: And Landman also shows the manner in which universities enforced
34:51
Speaker 3: hard left conformity. This program shows who the real bullies are.
34:57
Speaker 16: Yeah, I don't get the sense that she wants me
34:58
Speaker 16: to express myself at all. Well, for example, their pronouns
35:04
Speaker 16: here we go.
35:05
Speaker 8: What nothing.
35:05
Speaker 2: I'm just preparing myself to be offended.
35:09
Speaker 16: I don't care what someone's pronouns are. I just I mean,
35:12
Speaker 16: using a plural pronoun for one person is just kind
35:16
Speaker 16: of incorrect.
35:16
Speaker 2: It says who, well the English language Asley.
35:19
Speaker 12: I'm not going to argue the evolving nature of pronoun
35:22
Speaker 12: usage with you.
35:23
Speaker 2: They would prefer you use day, then, why is that
35:25
Speaker 2: an issue?
35:26
Speaker 3: Let's bring in Sky News contributed Kosher Gaeta Kosher. The
35:30
Speaker 3: popularity of Landman, I think speaks not just to the
35:34
Speaker 3: quality of the program, but the desire out there for
35:38
Speaker 3: Hollywood to tackle these issues, because anytime they do cover it,
35:42
Speaker 3: it seems to be in a very skewed fashion.
35:45
Speaker 17: Indeed, from a business perspective, it's such a wide open
35:48
Speaker 17: field for anybody willing to do it. There's literally half
35:51
Speaker 17: the country, tens of millions of people who are crying
35:54
Speaker 17: out for quality content in the space. That's where you
35:57
Speaker 17: see some of it coming up in the alternative media spaces,
36:00
Speaker 17: but not so many mainstream director's producers creators. Taylor Sheridan
36:05
Speaker 17: the creator behind this, also of Yellowstone. He's from Texas.
36:08
Speaker 17: He very smartly doesn't wear his politics on his sleeve.
36:11
Speaker 17: We can infer, but he's creating art. He loves to
36:14
Speaker 17: depict rural, working class settings, obvious rugged masculinity, natural femininity
36:20
Speaker 17: like these characters here. When you see that, and it's
36:23
Speaker 17: almost like he's doing a wink and a nod, I
36:25
Speaker 17: think to half the country about what he's talking about.
36:28
Speaker 3: Now, let's talk about that storming of the church in Minneapolis.
36:33
Speaker 3: I played footage of that last night. Just incredible scenes
36:37
Speaker 3: to see these anti Trump, anti ice protests storming a
36:41
Speaker 3: church that were joined by Don Lemon, and here he lectures.
36:46
Speaker 2: The preacher about what Jesus would really want? What do
36:49
Speaker 2: you think of it?
36:50
Speaker 10: I mean, this is unacceptable, It's shameful. It's shameful to
36:55
Speaker 10: interrupt a public gathering.
36:57
Speaker 2: Of Christians in worship.
37:00
Speaker 9: But there are folks.
37:02
Speaker 10: I have to take care of my flock.
37:04
Speaker 14: Listen, we live in there's a Constitution in the First
37:06
Speaker 14: Amendment to freedom of speech and freedom to assemble a
37:08
Speaker 14: protect Yeah, we're here to worship.
37:11
Speaker 10: We're here to worship Jesus because.
37:12
Speaker 2: That's the hope of these cities.
37:14
Speaker 10: That's the hope of the world is Jesus Christ.
37:16
Speaker 14: We're very respectful, but please don't.
37:17
Speaker 2: Push me though we're here.
37:19
Speaker 10: We're here to worship Jesus.
37:21
Speaker 9: That's why we're here.
37:22
Speaker 10: Okay, that's why we're here. Hopefully, that's what we're about.
37:24
Speaker 14: Which you think Jesus would be understanding.
37:26
Speaker 10: We're about love these bodes, we're about spreading the love
37:29
Speaker 10: of Jesus.
37:30
Speaker 3: I mean the nerve of him saying, oh, don't touch
37:33
Speaker 3: me as he gets into the man's personal space, telling
37:37
Speaker 3: him what Jesus would really want it that calls.
37:39
Speaker 2: Now, people are irate about this. It's like they've.
37:42
Speaker 3: Crossed the line, and there are calls for everyone involved
37:45
Speaker 3: in that action to be investigated, to possibly be charged.
37:48
Speaker 17: There are Assistant Attorney General Hermy Dillon, head of the
37:51
Speaker 17: Civil Rights Division, is exploring the Face Act, which is
37:54
Speaker 17: about protecting freedom to worship and religious freedom on the line,
37:59
Speaker 17: and the others are of course going to argue freedom
38:01
Speaker 17: of speech and the First Amendment, and that will run
38:03
Speaker 17: its course depending on how far they prosecute. But this
38:06
Speaker 17: did disrupt a place of worship during a time of worship,
38:09
Speaker 17: and so there is some argument there that legal scholars
38:12
Speaker 17: are saying there might be a case. I do think
38:14
Speaker 17: the Trump administration also understands the power of setting examples,
38:17
Speaker 17: like making examples of people, and you get one or
38:19
Speaker 17: two high profile ones like this. Since Don Lemon is involved,
38:22
Speaker 17: it could be a deterrent. I don't know that that
38:24
Speaker 17: will take a long time. I think the other issue
38:26
Speaker 17: to everybody knows this is Don Lemon is looking for
38:29
Speaker 17: her second act. You have to snn and so he
38:31
Speaker 17: just wants to go where he thinks there's conflict and
38:34
Speaker 17: a viral story. And in so far as that goes,
38:37
Speaker 17: I guess it's working. He's in the news a lot.
38:38
Speaker 2: Well, it's working.
38:39
Speaker 3: He's got superstar Nicki Minaj weighing into this issue. She's
38:43
Speaker 3: attacked him personally, and she also posted this image from
38:47
Speaker 3: inside the church. You can see there looks like parents
38:51
Speaker 3: comforting their child, terrified kids. In there, she wrote, the
38:55
Speaker 3: world is watching. Kosha Minaj just really leaned into Christians
39:01
Speaker 3: and Christianity. We saw her talk about persecuted Christians in Nigeria.
39:06
Speaker 3: Now church goers in Minneapolis.
39:08
Speaker 17: And Don Lemon probably didn't see that coming because you're right,
39:11
Speaker 17: superstar with many more fans online than him, she is
39:15
Speaker 17: leaning in and it kind of links to the previous
39:17
Speaker 17: topic too. Another example of somebody from the entertainment industry
39:20
Speaker 17: daring to buck the trend or come out in support
39:24
Speaker 17: of religion. You see them here and there. But it
39:26
Speaker 17: used to be another mind. It used to be career
39:28
Speaker 17: suicide to do that. I guess she's too big to counsel.
39:32
Speaker 17: And it is refreshing because she does lend a different
39:35
Speaker 17: credibility to the cause.
39:37
Speaker 2: She brings a different audience.
39:38
Speaker 17: It's maybe more open or willing to listen to her
39:40
Speaker 17: than somebody you know of the rate, and I think
39:43
Speaker 17: it's a good thing.
39:44
Speaker 3: Now we're seeing these protests ramp up, obviously a lot
39:48
Speaker 3: happening in Minnesota, but also elsewhere in the country. They
39:51
Speaker 3: have a day of protests coming up in the next
39:55
Speaker 3: twenty four hours. How do you see that impacting the midterms?
40:00
Speaker 3: It's months away. But does it help Donald Trump or
40:04
Speaker 3: does a painted picture of chaos and disunity? And is
40:09
Speaker 3: it just going to help the Democrats? Really, I could
40:13
Speaker 3: get a fantastic result.
40:15
Speaker 2: Come no vembo.
40:16
Speaker 17: Yeah, it's a you put your finger on a key question.
40:18
Speaker 17: I think that's ok. At some of the polling where
40:20
Speaker 17: sixty seven percent of Republicans are fully in support of it.
40:24
Speaker 17: They want all illegals out, not just violent illegals went
40:28
Speaker 17: on to commit violent crimes at all illegals.
40:30
Speaker 2: That is a massive shift.
40:31
Speaker 17: The party was not there even ten years ago, but
40:34
Speaker 17: it was something like fifty to fifty five percent of
40:36
Speaker 17: the country actually thinks so that ice agent went too far.
40:40
Speaker 17: They see renee Good as a little bit of a victim,
40:43
Speaker 17: even if legally that may not be the case. It's
40:45
Speaker 17: the optics of it.
40:46
Speaker 2: So that's tricky.
40:46
Speaker 17: It's pretty split, and there's a big contingent of people.
40:49
Speaker 17: It's all Democrats and independents, which are important in the midterms,
40:52
Speaker 17: that don't like this and don't like the idea of
40:55
Speaker 17: armed agents out in the streets, even if they're.
40:57
Speaker 3: About twenty twenty and that how summer of love we
41:01
Speaker 3: had with the BLM rights across the country, two billion
41:04
Speaker 3: dollars worth of damage, more than a dozen people killed,
41:08
Speaker 3: many more bashed, And though I would imagine most of
41:12
Speaker 3: the country wouldn't have been supportive of any of that,
41:15
Speaker 3: it did paint a picture of chaos, and I think
41:17
Speaker 3: it helped the Democrats, and it seems like they're trying
41:19
Speaker 3: to emulate that come the midterms.
41:22
Speaker 17: And when you get something like this, these conflicts are
41:24
Speaker 17: bound to happen. Even if the ICE is in the
41:27
Speaker 17: right legally, just in the court of public opinion, they
41:31
Speaker 17: are able to make hay of it. So I think that,
41:33
Speaker 17: coupled with the economy and other issues that are maybe
41:36
Speaker 17: not going exactly as the Trump administration and Republicans want,
41:39
Speaker 17: it's going to be very very tricky the midterms that
41:41
Speaker 17: we don't know how it's.
41:42
Speaker 15: Going to go.
41:42
Speaker 3: No way too early right now, But let's have a
41:46
Speaker 3: little light relief courtesy of town Hall Media and Tim
41:50
Speaker 3: Walls tampon Tin Walls.
41:53
Speaker 2: I would not put it past this administration to target
41:56
Speaker 2: midnight mass services amongst folks going to worship.
41:59
Speaker 10: Bang Renee Good, Rene Good where are you?
42:06
Speaker 12: Where are you?
42:07
Speaker 15: Where are your people?
42:08
Speaker 10: Why are you got it with?
42:10
Speaker 5: Well?
42:10
Speaker 10: Every day fighting for the humanity.
42:12
Speaker 9: You drink your pappa, You got your jewelry, you have
42:14
Speaker 9: your nice clothes. But what do you do?
42:16
Speaker 10: What are you understand for your small lots of couplebodies.
42:20
Speaker 2: It's always the way with the left. It's all about projection.
42:22
Speaker 3: They're guilty of precisely what they accuse their political opponents
42:27
Speaker 3: of doing.
42:27
Speaker 17: Always And oh, Tim Walls, I think what did he
42:30
Speaker 17: say in the debate?
42:31
Speaker 9: Knucklehead? He tends your knucklehead.
42:33
Speaker 17: So he did not pick the best example there, and
42:35
Speaker 17: the timing couldn't have been worse.
42:36
Speaker 10: He is in hot water.
42:37
Speaker 17: He really this whole gigantrian level of fraud that's coming
42:41
Speaker 17: out of Minnesota while he presided over that state as governor.
42:45
Speaker 17: We're just at the tip of the iceberg of that story,
42:47
Speaker 17: and he is implicated, whether by actively being involved or
42:52
Speaker 17: just being incompetent, whatever it is, in some.
42:54
Speaker 2: Way he's complicit.
42:55
Speaker 17: I think he's worried about it, and you can see
42:57
Speaker 17: the panic a little bit.
42:58
Speaker 2: Absolutely.
42:59
Speaker 3: I think the best case scenario is he's hopelessly inept
43:03
Speaker 3: and had no idea what was happening under his watch.
43:06
Speaker 2: That is the best case scenario.
43:09
Speaker 3: The other option is complicit and it could be facing
43:13
Speaker 3: some serious charges.
43:15
Speaker 2: Now, before you go, the issue of biological.
43:17
Speaker 3: Boys and men in women's sport has been spoken about
43:21
Speaker 3: it a lot. Recently, the Supreme Court has heard arguments
43:24
Speaker 3: in two constitutional cases regarding the participation of transgender athletes
43:29
Speaker 3: at the K twelve and college level.
43:32
Speaker 2: Do you expect the court to settle this matter once
43:36
Speaker 2: and for all.
43:36
Speaker 3: We're still going to have the states doing their own
43:40
Speaker 3: thing and the Trump administration doing its this.
43:45
Speaker 17: I think the result is due in June July, in
43:47
Speaker 17: the summertime, and the reading seems to be people expect
43:51
Speaker 17: that six' three the conservative majority will uphold the current,
43:54
Speaker 17: ruling which is that those twenty seven seats the red
43:57
Speaker 17: stets essentially who bands can do. So and it's primarily
44:02
Speaker 17: on the core argument that they're, bringing and also on
44:04
Speaker 17: top of, that there's a federalism argument too that it
44:07
Speaker 17: should be at the local. Level people are still debating.
44:09
Speaker 17: This we wish they, weren't but they, are and so
44:11
Speaker 17: let the states have the, power which is good that
44:14
Speaker 17: at least Those idaho And West virginia who are the plaintiffs,
44:16
Speaker 17: here will come out. Victorious, however the other twenty three
44:20
Speaker 17: states who have not banned men from participating in girls,
44:23
Speaker 17: sports they will continue to do what they're. Doing there's
44:26
Speaker 17: a big case down the road that they're going to.
44:28
Speaker 17: Hear where would they nationalize that?
44:30
Speaker 10: Ban that?
44:31
Speaker 2: One it looks like.
44:31
Speaker 17: Even the conservative judges won't go, there and they'll rely
44:34
Speaker 17: on the federalism, argument which will mean that you'll have
44:37
Speaker 17: more of the red part of the country looking red
44:39
Speaker 17: and the blue part of the country looking, blue and
44:41
Speaker 17: life is very different if you live In texas Versus.
44:43
Speaker 3: California fascinating and, yeah listening to some of those arguments
44:48
Speaker 3: being put a couple of those liberal, JUDGES i, mean
44:52
Speaker 3: you just have to wonder how they even made it
44:54
Speaker 3: onto The Supreme. Court the questions were just so infantile
44:58
Speaker 3: and almost embarrassing to very.
44:59
Speaker 2: Embarrassing, koshergata thank you so much for your time. Tonight

Speaker 3: sympathetic to your?
46:35
Speaker 2: Plight do you know?
46:37

46:41
Speaker 10: of police officers talked to me as soon as the
46:42
Speaker 10: meeting was. Over but luckily they kind of know WHO
46:45

Speaker 3: Meeting, well, yes also your sign inviting big Booty, latinas
46:56
Speaker 3: whether they're illegal or, not to reside at your, HOUSE
47:00
Speaker 3: i think that would have raised a few hygebrows in. Itself,
47:03
Speaker 3: now we all know about the unprecedented fraud In minnesota
47:07
Speaker 3: billions of taxpayer funds, squandered, stolen but that hasn't inspired
47:12
Speaker 3: Other blue states and cities to look in their own
47:15
Speaker 3: backyards for similar.
47:17
Speaker 2: Schemes here Is seattle Mayg Katie wilson explaining why she's.
47:21
Speaker 3: Reluctant to investigate claims Of somali fraud In.
47:25
Speaker 15: Seattle problematic to have random people showing up to Decars and,
47:32
Speaker 15: YEAH i, MEAN i think the fear in The smiley
47:34
Speaker 15: community is, real the fear in immigrant communities are, Real
47:36
Speaker 15: so we're taking that very.
47:37
Speaker 1: Seriously along those, lines have you asked anyone to follow
47:39
Speaker 1: up on the fraud, claims either to The apartment Of
47:43
Speaker 1: Immigrant Refugee affairs OR. Spd, No so there's as far
47:48
Speaker 1: as you're, concerned right, now.
47:49
Speaker 17: There's no reason to suggest there's any sort of.
47:51
Speaker 15: Fraud this holy issue is not really about, fraud, Right
47:54
Speaker 15: it's about dividing and. Conquering it's about making an immigrant
47:57
Speaker 15: community a.
47:58
Speaker 2: Target there you, Go, alex there's no reason to.
48:02
Speaker 3: Investigate it's, problematic and she's clearly more worried about what
48:07
Speaker 3: she calls fear in The somali community than any sort
48:11
Speaker 3: of fraud that could be happening under a.
48:13
Speaker 2: Nose.
48:14
Speaker 10: No, ready you're exactly. Right and the real problem is
48:17
Speaker 10: that we have a two tier justice. System IF, i
48:20
Speaker 10: as a Legal american, citizen was trying to run some
48:23
Speaker 10: sort of daycare, FRAUD i would get caught AND i
48:25
Speaker 10: would be held accountable for all of the crimes THAT i.
48:28
Speaker 10: Committed but if you're A somali that is that is,
48:30
Speaker 10: here you, know on a green card or you know
48:32
Speaker 10: some sort of you, know temporary immigration, status when you
48:35
Speaker 10: get arrested for a serious crime like, this you get
48:38
Speaker 10: to get. Deported so they basically have a get out
48:40
Speaker 10: of jail free, card which is the real problem all
48:43
Speaker 10: this because it encourages them to actually do some sort
48:46
Speaker 10: of illegal enterprise to make. Money so that's why The
48:49
Speaker 10: american citizens are. Frustrated, yes it's a lot of, money
48:53
Speaker 10: but we're frustrated that illegal emmerants can come here and
48:56
Speaker 10: take away social services and tax paying dollars THAT i.
49:00
Speaker 10: Paid also that they can have Bent lee's and driver
49:03
Speaker 10: on a fancy. Cars it's, Ridiculous, rita.
49:06
Speaker 2: Before you, Go.
49:06
Speaker 3: Alex investigative report Of james O'Keefe has uncovered some starting
49:11

Speaker 10: as Magnus, opus and of course it was a huge,
49:48
Speaker 10: thing And i'm so thankful that you're covering. It but
49:50

49:56
Speaker 10: in getting the vice, president you, know potentially. Her so
50:00
Speaker 10: this is a huge. STORY i think this is an
50:03
Speaker 10: indication that there is a deep state that even Though
50:05
Speaker 10: trump is in, power there's a lot of people that
50:07
Speaker 10: are high up that don't agree With Donald.
50:09
Speaker 3: Trump Alex, stein thank you so much for your time,
