- 0:08Speaker 3: Good evening and welcome to the Reader Paney Show coming
- 0:11Speaker 3: up tonight. Should the Liberal Party change or compromise its
- 0:14Speaker 3: values to appeal to female voters. Patrick Carline will be
- 0:18Speaker 3: here to discuss the day's top headlines. The Great Douglas
- 0:22Speaker 3: Murray on the Deadly Consequences of Leftist policies will be
- 0:26Speaker 3: joining us before the first ad break, Kosher Gaida on
- 0:30Speaker 3: the Latest from the US, and later in the hour
- 0:32Speaker 3: They Always Droll. Alex Stein on the star studded musical
- 0:36Speaker 3: that features a black actress portraying Jesus and left He
- 0:41Speaker 3: is Losing. It features more than one aging has been
- 0:44Speaker 3: including actor Sean Penn.
- 0:46Speaker 4: You think he'll try to stay on?
- 0:48Speaker 5: I think he might try to destroy the world by
- 0:50Speaker 5: the before he before he ages out of life.
- 0:54Speaker 3: But first, Some of the Liberal Party's biggest stoners are
- 0:57Speaker 3: threatening to pull their funding after the devastating loss on
- 1:01Speaker 3: the weekend. Donors are long term supporters of the Liberal
- 1:04Speaker 3: Party have lashed out of the disorganized election campaign and
- 1:08Speaker 3: at Peter Dutton's labor Light small target policy platform, saying
- 1:13Speaker 3: that after that performance, they're no longer interested in giving
- 1:17Speaker 3: the Libs financial support. Billionaire Robert Milner, the chairman of Soulpatz,
- 1:21Speaker 3: said it's been a disaster. I will be seriously thinking
- 1:25Speaker 3: about whether I ever donate again. I don't know where
- 1:29Speaker 3: they go to from now. It was a very poor campaign.
- 1:33Speaker 3: Stockbroker Angus Eightken, one of the largest Liberal donors, said
- 1:37Speaker 3: I have zero interest in donating further to the Liberals.
- 1:40Speaker 3: They need a wholesale clear out to work out what
- 1:44Speaker 3: they stand for instead of these me too style quasi
- 1:48Speaker 3: labor policies to do not well against these poor outcomes.
- 1:52Speaker 3: Labor as generators is astounding, but the lack of policies
- 1:56Speaker 3: from the Liberal Party was completely hopeless. Among the criticism
- 2:01Speaker 3: was that the coalition failed to effectively campaign on cutting
- 2:04Speaker 3: Labour's wasteful green energy spending and on stopping Labour's dangerous
- 2:10Speaker 3: plans for unrealized capital gains tax. Joining me now for
- 2:14Speaker 3: more on this. As News Corps senior writer Patrick Carly
- 2:17Speaker 3: and Patrick, this is precisely the advice they should be
- 2:21Speaker 3: listening to instead of the media hacks telling them to
- 2:24Speaker 3: veer further left. They ran a labor l like policy.
- 2:29Speaker 3: It didn't work. It doesn't work in Wa, doesn't work
- 2:32Speaker 3: here in Victoria, and it certainly doesn't work federally as
- 2:35Speaker 3: we've just seen.
- 2:36Speaker 6: Well, it was uniform, wasn't it. Australia rejected the coalition,
- 2:39Speaker 6: It wasn't victorious Ay or Queensland. And I think those
- 2:43Speaker 6: daughters make a very good point. We're coming off a
- 2:46Speaker 6: first term government that wasn't particularly good. Anthony ALBERNIZI is
- 2:50Speaker 6: never going to be Bob Hawk. There was a lot
- 2:51Speaker 6: of errors made through that turn, so it's plenty to prosecute,
- 2:56Speaker 6: and they just could not effectively sort of launch a
- 3:00Speaker 6: campaign that made you think, well, he's a vision here
- 3:03Speaker 6: that's different to the Labor Party that's been in power
- 3:06Speaker 6: and made a lot of mistakes. It was fragmented, we're
- 3:10Speaker 6: hearing now it was so chaotic behind the scenes. It
- 3:12Speaker 6: was all on the run policy and nobody bought it.
- 3:16Speaker 3: Now, Patrick, you mentioned chaos, and here is further details
- 3:19Speaker 3: of the chaos within the Liberal Party and the lead
- 3:22Speaker 3: up to the election, with insiders revealing that major energy, housing,
- 3:27Speaker 3: and defense policies were worked up on the run during
- 3:30Speaker 3: the campaign and it showed the National gas Reserve policy,
- 3:35Speaker 3: senior College and ministers royally given about three hours notice
- 3:38Speaker 3: that Peter Dutton planned to unveil the gas policy, and
- 3:42Speaker 3: the announcement was made before the final version of the
- 3:45Speaker 3: modeling from Frontier Economics was available. That reportedly saw Liberal
- 3:50Speaker 3: campaign staff chasing the final version of the report from
- 3:53Speaker 3: director Danny Price, who was found to be in New
- 3:56Speaker 3: Zealand with his phone turned off. Patrick. When the report
- 4:00Speaker 3: was mainly finally made public some twelve days after Peter
- 4:05Speaker 3: Dutton's budget speech, it didn't exactly show the cost savings
- 4:09Speaker 3: that were promise. I mean, this is such a monumental mess.
- 4:13Speaker 3: When they needed to be bold and strong, they were
- 4:16Speaker 3: weak and incoherent.
- 4:18Speaker 6: Look, I think that's right. I mean if you go
- 4:20Speaker 6: back to last year, or even the year before Peter
- 4:23Speaker 6: Dutton announced nuclear policy, which you sort of thought, well,
- 4:25Speaker 6: that's whatever you think of it, that's bold, that's game changing.
- 4:29Speaker 6: Are we going to have a referendum on energy? And instead?
- 4:32Speaker 6: Where he get these sort of half baked sort of
- 4:35Speaker 6: ideas on the run and the modeling didn't even pan
- 4:39Speaker 6: out to accord with what Peter Dutton had promised. You
- 4:42Speaker 6: can't be doing that. This election was not a surprise.
- 4:46Speaker 6: They've had three years to sort of work on this
- 4:48Speaker 6: and to get it right, and to believe in things,
- 4:50Speaker 6: and to convince the electorate that this is a bold
- 4:53Speaker 6: alternative and they failed on all of those levels.
- 4:56Speaker 3: We had Senator Alex Antikon on Sunday on Outsiders, and
- 5:00Speaker 3: he said that some of their policies resembled mobile phone plans,
- 5:05Speaker 3: where you get a special deal for twelve months, you
- 5:08Speaker 3: get a cut or discount on the fuel ex size.
- 5:12Speaker 3: How is that going to convince people to throw out
- 5:15Speaker 3: a first term government? And you mentioned nuclear policy. It
- 5:18Speaker 3: was a point of differentiation, but it doesn't come intil
- 5:21Speaker 3: the twenty thirties. If they won and they ran away
- 5:24Speaker 3: from that policy. Throughout the campaign, they were too scared
- 5:27Speaker 3: to articulate their position because there were attacks, which they
- 5:31Speaker 3: should have expected. Of course they're going to be attacks.
- 5:34Speaker 6: Well, I think I'm convincing is a word that sort
- 5:36Speaker 6: of springs to mind for me, because in the end,
- 5:38Speaker 6: when they look to be in doubt, they sort of
- 5:40Speaker 6: copied what the ALP had done, or did a version
- 5:43Speaker 6: of the ALP, and at the same time they sort
- 5:46Speaker 6: of alienated certain sections of the community. They weren't a choice,
- 5:51Speaker 6: they weren't doing anything different, and they weren't doing anything better.
- 5:55Speaker 6: It looked like a campaign where they really were doing
- 5:57Speaker 6: it on the run and they really didn't know what
- 6:00Speaker 6: they would striving to do.
- 6:02Speaker 3: Now to an interesting piece in the Australian Financial Review
- 6:05Speaker 3: by Tricia jar on the woes facing the Liberal Party.
- 6:08Speaker 3: She writes about the error of thinking that to appeal
- 6:12Speaker 3: to women, to appeal to professionals and millennials, the Liberals
- 6:16Speaker 3: must change or compromise their values. She writes tax policies
- 6:20Speaker 3: that encourage growth, housing policies that enable choice, immigration policies
- 6:24Speaker 3: that contribute to Australia's prosperity, and a disciplined approach to
- 6:29Speaker 3: public spending that contains ballooning debt for the next generation
- 6:33Speaker 3: should be bread and butter issues for Liberals and one
- 6:36Speaker 3: that can have cut through with all demographics. She makes
- 6:41Speaker 3: an excellent point there because I think the easy thing
- 6:43Speaker 3: to do, which is what we're hearing now from all
- 6:46Speaker 3: the grifters and the like, is they are wanting to
- 6:50Speaker 3: push through their pet projects, so they want to have
- 6:53Speaker 3: gender quotas. They want to essentially turn the Liberal Party
- 6:56Speaker 3: into labor We already have a labor party. If people
- 7:00Speaker 3: want to vote for labor, they vote for labor, give
- 7:02Speaker 3: them a choice. But the point made in this AFR
- 7:05Speaker 3: piece I think is spot on women and millennials. They're
- 7:11Speaker 3: not some weird demographic. If you give them sound policies,
- 7:15Speaker 3: it will appeal to them as it appeals to every
- 7:17Speaker 3: other demographic.
- 7:18Speaker 6: Well, it was women in those marginal seats on in
- 7:23Speaker 6: the outer suburbs of the capital cities that they really
- 7:25Speaker 6: had to win over, and they sort of lost them
- 7:28Speaker 6: from day one virtually or literally, which they're working from
- 7:31Speaker 6: home policy, which basically said a lot of these women
- 7:34Speaker 6: were working from home to save money because they're in
- 7:37Speaker 6: the cost of living crisis, they were making ends meet,
- 7:40Speaker 6: and they sort of come in and basically have this
- 7:43Speaker 6: policy that alienates them from the outset. That's when the
- 7:46Speaker 6: election was lost. Basically, it's easy to say that after
- 7:50Speaker 6: the event, but they never got that back and they're
- 7:53Speaker 6: basically it was the same with the young people and
- 7:56Speaker 6: indeed for all taxpayers. I mean, the coalition's tax policy
- 7:59Speaker 6: was costlier to the average taxpayer than the ALPS. I mean,
- 8:03Speaker 6: what do they believe in, what do they stand for?
- 8:07Speaker 3: Well, we'll wait and see, because I think it's going
- 8:09Speaker 3: to be crucial the next leader of the Liberal Party.
- 8:13Speaker 3: If they go the wrong way that then they can
- 8:17Speaker 3: have many more years of pain. The rebuild needs to start,
- 8:20Speaker 3: and needs to start very quickly. Patrick Carlin, thanks for
- 8:22Speaker 3: your time. Joining me now is best selling author Douglas
- 8:26Speaker 3: Murray's latest book on democracies and death cults has just
- 8:31Speaker 3: hit the shells. Douglas, let's start with sickening cases of
- 8:35Speaker 3: abuse and neglect of vulnerable children ignored by authorities in
- 8:39Speaker 3: the name of anti racism or so called progressive ideology.
- 8:44Speaker 3: The front page of the New York Post today says
- 8:46Speaker 3: it all kids doomed. ACS's that's Administration for Children's Services
- 8:52Speaker 3: progressive agenda led to seven child debts. Douglas, the cases
- 8:57Speaker 3: here are sickening kids, abuse, long term staved, mistreated, and
- 9:03Speaker 3: the paper says they're victims of an agency stubbornly committed
- 9:07Speaker 3: to a progressive ideology that considers removing children from a
- 9:11Speaker 3: troubled home, no matter how abusive, to be cruel and
- 9:15Speaker 3: even racist, leaving too many children to fend for themselves
- 9:19Speaker 3: and sadly, Douglas, I think this is not just a
- 9:22Speaker 3: problem in New York, but in many parts of the
- 9:25Speaker 3: Western world.
- 9:27Speaker 1: That's right, Greta. I mean, it's an unbelievably shocking story.
- 9:31Speaker 7: You would have thought that, you know, of all jobs
- 9:35Speaker 7: that local government authority is meant to see through and
- 9:39Speaker 7: commit to, you'd have thought that the looking after caring
- 9:43Speaker 7: for the most vulnerable in society would be something that
- 9:47Speaker 7: everybody could just agree on as a priority.
- 9:50Speaker 1: But as the New York Post.
- 9:51Speaker 7: Says, the ACS in New York is one of many
- 9:55Speaker 7: such agencies across the US and indeed across the west
- 9:59Speaker 7: of the Western world that really regards ideologies of other
- 10:04Speaker 7: kinds as trumping that and especially the so called anti
- 10:09Speaker 7: racist ideologies and all of the diversity equity stuff that
- 10:16Speaker 7: actually those things trump child's safety. That, as the Post says, today,
- 10:23Speaker 7: people who should be caring for these children instead are
- 10:27Speaker 7: in hark to this ideology that says, to interrupt the family,
- 10:33Speaker 7: even a family where child's being abused is in some
- 10:36Speaker 7: way it's self abusive because it could be racist. This
- 10:42Speaker 7: is really where the rubber hits a road on ideologies.
- 10:46Speaker 1: Like the whole di thing.
- 10:49Speaker 7: The question is like, are you going to pursue this
- 10:51Speaker 7: ideology all the way, even at the expense of vulnerable
- 10:56Speaker 7: children or are you going to have other priorities.
- 11:00Speaker 1: I would hope after the attention that.
- 11:01Speaker 7: These horrific cases have now got more people who should
- 11:05Speaker 7: be making childcare a priority will do so instead of
- 11:11Speaker 7: these absolutely inappropriate and wildly unuseful ideologies.
- 11:21Speaker 3: You would hope so. But as we've seen in the
- 11:24Speaker 3: UK with the Grooming gang scandal, the lessons haven't been
- 11:28Speaker 3: learned there, where vulnerable young girls were just abandoned by
- 11:33Speaker 3: authorities in the name of community cohesion and PC agenda.
- 11:40Speaker 3: Now staying in the UK, an extraordinary story is unfolding
- 11:44Speaker 3: there with revelations that an Iranian terror attack was just
- 11:48Speaker 3: hours away from being launched on British soil before it
- 11:52Speaker 3: was foiled by counter terrorism officers. British police arrested eight people,
- 11:57Speaker 3: including seven Iranian nationals, suspicion of terrorism offenses. The UK
- 12:02Speaker 3: Telegraph reports that authorities feed the attacks on a specific
- 12:07Speaker 3: premises was imminent, and there is speculation Douglas that the
- 12:11Speaker 3: target may have been a synagogue or another target link
- 12:15Speaker 3: to the Jewish community. This is Douglas, certainly a frightening development.
- 12:22Speaker 7: It is very frightening, but sadly not surprising. Iranian terrorists
- 12:28Speaker 7: have targeted people in a bewildering array.
- 12:31Speaker 1: Of countries by now.
- 12:33Speaker 7: They of course famously carried out bombings of Jewish community
- 12:37Speaker 7: center in South America some years ago in New York City,
- 12:44Speaker 7: in Brooklyn elsewhere, Iranian government assassins tried to kill again
- 12:50Speaker 7: just a year or two ago, a very brave Iranian
- 12:55Speaker 7: exile who is critical of the regime. They tried to
- 12:58Speaker 7: kill this young woman in America. The Iranian government's most
- 13:04Speaker 7: prominent media outlet boasts about this just the other week.
- 13:09Speaker 7: As I wrote in the Post the other day, just
- 13:11Speaker 7: the other week, the editor of one of the main
- 13:15Speaker 7: organs of the Iranian revolutionary government, who has the ear
- 13:19Speaker 7: of the Supreme Leader and is generally regarded.
- 13:21Speaker 1: As being a spokesman for.
- 13:22Speaker 7: Him, said that it was still the intention of the
- 13:25Speaker 7: Iranian government to put a bullet in the skull of
- 13:29Speaker 7: President Trump, and he said hopefully that day will arrive soon.
- 13:34Speaker 1: It is amazing.
- 13:35Speaker 7: We'll wait and see what unfolds in the UK about
- 13:39Speaker 7: this tera sal and its prospective targets, but I don't
- 13:44Speaker 7: think anyone should be that surprised by it. Iran has
- 13:48Speaker 7: been put pumping terrorists obviously around the whole the region
- 13:52Speaker 7: it's in. But the revolutionary government's also been trying to
- 13:55Speaker 7: carry out assassinations with impunity in America in other countries
- 14:00Speaker 7: for years now. I do wonder when we'll start to
- 14:04Speaker 7: take them seriously and actually do anything in response.
- 14:07Speaker 3: Meanwhile, Douglas kirs Starmer continues to obsess about the threat
- 14:11Speaker 3: from the so called far right. Now, Nigel Faraja's Reform
- 14:15Speaker 3: Party had a stunning resulted council and by elections on Thursday.
- 14:19Speaker 3: The party is now taking control of ten local councils,
- 14:23Speaker 3: won two mayoral races and added a fifth MP to
- 14:26Speaker 3: its ranks. Forages, hailing reforms triumph as unprecedented. He says
- 14:31Speaker 3: it's the end of the two party rule in the UK.
- 14:36Speaker 3: Is he right? He's taking votes from Labor and the Tories,
- 14:39Speaker 3: Douglas Well.
- 14:41Speaker 7: Nail Varas has done this before, of course, he led
- 14:44Speaker 7: the Brexit Party and indeed U kept us stunning electoral
- 14:48Speaker 7: successes principally back then in the European Parliament when Britain
- 14:53Speaker 7: was still a member of the EU.
- 14:56Speaker 1: So there are two.
- 14:57Speaker 7: Things I think people have to bear in mind when
- 14:59Speaker 7: they look at these. One is that they are local elections.
- 15:02Speaker 7: Turn out tends to be low and it tends to
- 15:05Speaker 7: be the case that people punish incumbent parties, So that's
- 15:09Speaker 7: definitely the case. It was an undoubtedly successful night for reform.
- 15:14Speaker 7: That doesn't necessarily mean though, that Reform can see that
- 15:18Speaker 7: through at a general election. As you know, Reta, the
- 15:21Speaker 7: whole setup and as Night Parage know is better than anyone,
- 15:24Speaker 7: the whole setup of the first past the post system,
- 15:27Speaker 7: which is intended to give strong governments and sometimes does.
- 15:31Speaker 1: But the whole point.
- 15:32Speaker 7: Of it really is that an insurgent party like those
- 15:35Speaker 7: that Nigel Farag has led for some thirty years now,
- 15:39Speaker 7: it is effectively it's very hard at general elections to
- 15:43Speaker 7: break through. You see the number of votes that were
- 15:45Speaker 7: needed or the number of votes that haven't the last
- 15:49Speaker 7: general election per Reform MP as opposed to the number
- 15:52Speaker 7: of votes per Labor MP, and I mean it's way off.
- 15:58Speaker 1: So we'll see.
- 15:59Speaker 7: There are, of course, of more than four years to
- 16:01Speaker 7: go till the next general election in the UK. The
- 16:05Speaker 7: problem that Farage obviously is principally is not to Labor
- 16:10Speaker 7: or it definitely does chip away it Labors vote and
- 16:13Speaker 7: did do. Here the principal threat is to the Conservative Party.
- 16:16Speaker 7: If the Conservative Party cannot see off threat from Pharage
- 16:21Speaker 7: and Reform, then they really don't deserve to exist.
- 16:24Speaker 1: But it should be possible for the Conservative Party to
- 16:27Speaker 1: see them off.
- 16:28Speaker 7: It's just that the Conservative Party has to first of all,
- 16:32Speaker 7: have policies that can outflank Nigel Farage's policies, and secondly,
- 16:36Speaker 7: of course to find some way back into the public
- 16:40Speaker 7: trust after thirteen fourteen years of Conservative governments, for instance,
- 16:45Speaker 7: saying that they were going to lower migration whilst seeing.
- 16:48Speaker 1: Migration go through the roof.
- 16:50Speaker 7: It will take quite a long time for the electorate
- 16:52Speaker 7: to forgive the Conservative Party for that, I think. But
- 16:54Speaker 7: the Conservative Party will have to address that question, and
- 16:57Speaker 7: it'll have to do so much faster than they're doing
- 17:00Speaker 7: at the moment.
- 17:02Speaker 8: Now.
- 17:02Speaker 3: Douglas, I can't wait to get your take on this
- 17:06Speaker 3: bizarre interaction involving the BBC chairman Samir Shah, who is
- 17:11Speaker 3: asked whether Hermas are terrorists. Now much frivolity and squirming
- 17:17Speaker 3: and giggling follows.
- 17:19Speaker 2: One last question just for you as an individual, Samir,
- 17:24Speaker 2: do you consider her Mass to be a terrorist group?
- 17:27Speaker 1: I have to.
- 17:30Speaker 9: Answer that in terms of the way we currently what.
- 17:34Speaker 2: Do you think they are. Do you think they're a
- 17:37Speaker 2: convocation with happy little squirrels and want that?
- 17:41Speaker 1: I don't think that.
- 17:42Speaker 9: But but I'm here as a chairman of the BIST
- 17:49Speaker 9: as an individual enter, I can tell you what I
- 17:52Speaker 9: think when I'm right now to the world. I am
- 17:57Speaker 9: the chairman of the BBC, and we have taken the
- 17:59Speaker 9: view as a board that would continue to use the
- 18:02Speaker 9: word terrorist only with attribution.
- 18:05Speaker 1: That's the position weake.
- 18:07Speaker 2: Although I think you think they're terrorists.
- 18:13Speaker 3: Douglas. If he thinks they're terrorists, then why doesn't he
- 18:16Speaker 3: say so? I would hardly think it's a controversial opinion.
- 18:22Speaker 1: Isn't it bizarre?
- 18:23Speaker 2: Eat?
- 18:23Speaker 1: I mean, it's not hard to call hamas terrorists, not.
- 18:26Speaker 7: Just because they are, because they're designated as much in
- 18:31Speaker 7: the UK and most other Western countries. I mean, what's
- 18:35Speaker 7: so difficult about that? I think, really, what we see there,
- 18:39Speaker 7: I could quite believe the sort of jolly.
- 18:41Speaker 1: Squirming of same sha on that.
- 18:43Speaker 7: I mean, you know, he's talking about people who have
- 18:48Speaker 7: been busily murdering other Palestinians in recent days, and who
- 18:54Speaker 7: of course for years have tried to commit genocide against
- 18:58Speaker 7: the Jewish people, and say they want to wipe the
- 19:01Speaker 7: Jewish people off the face of.
- 19:02Speaker 1: The earth and everyone else next.
- 19:03Speaker 7: Now, I mean, I can't see why any of that
- 19:06Speaker 7: is such a sort of squirmingly funny matter to Samir Shah.
- 19:10Speaker 7: I'd like to see him laugh his way through an
- 19:13Speaker 7: interview about any other genocidal group that wanted to wipe
- 19:16Speaker 7: out any organization or group of people from the face
- 19:20Speaker 7: of the earth.
- 19:21Speaker 1: It's very, very strange behavior. All I can think of.
- 19:24Speaker 7: Is that Samir Shah, the chairman of the BBC, is
- 19:27Speaker 7: trying to squirm out of that because he's aware of
- 19:30Speaker 7: the number of his colleagues or employees underneath them at
- 19:34Speaker 7: the BBC who think that Hamaz are some kind of
- 19:38Speaker 7: liberationist movement who shouldn't be smeared with the terrorist label,
- 19:45Speaker 7: and that if he Samir Shah is too strict about
- 19:47Speaker 7: saying that Hamaz are terrorists, then he'll have hell to
- 19:51Speaker 7: pay from the newsroom floor and from junior reporters and
- 19:54Speaker 7: junior editors and so on.
- 19:56Speaker 1: It's really quite despicable.
- 19:58Speaker 7: It's not a difficult one that at all, But yes,
- 20:02Speaker 7: I mean, it tells us about what he's swimming in
- 20:06Speaker 7: the BBC that that is a difficult question to answer.
- 20:12Speaker 7: You know, I'd love to see him do it on
- 20:14Speaker 7: any other group. As I say, I mean, I don't
- 20:16Speaker 7: know if he finds al Qaeda as chortlingly funny as
- 20:20Speaker 7: he does Hamaz or ic It or anyone else.
- 20:24Speaker 1: But it tells you an awful lot.
- 20:26Speaker 7: About the way in which the BBC just contorts itself
- 20:31Speaker 7: on these really quite straightforward questions. But yeah, I completely
- 20:35Speaker 7: recognize the thing he's swimming in. It's a newsroom and
- 20:39Speaker 7: an organization that finds it incredibly hard to actually call
- 20:44Speaker 7: Jimaz what they call themselves.
- 20:48Speaker 3: That I think he would have taken far more seriously
- 20:50Speaker 3: a question like can a woman have a penis? Because
- 20:54Speaker 3: he wouldn't want to be oh laughing at that. That
- 20:57Speaker 3: would be a very serious, sober analysis. Before you go, Douglas,
- 21:01Speaker 3: I have to get your take on Prince Harry's latest
- 21:06Speaker 3: media interview. He's sat down and again moaned about the
- 21:10Speaker 3: state of the relationship with his family. He says King
- 21:13Speaker 3: Charles will not take his calls, and Prince Harry apparently
- 21:17Speaker 3: is desperate for reconciliation, but King Charles is rejecting efforts
- 21:23Speaker 3: to reconcile. Why do you think that is, it's.
- 21:28Speaker 1: Really pitiful, I have to say, reach to a very sad.
- 21:31Speaker 7: Prince Harry, as I've said to you before, had a
- 21:33Speaker 7: great opportunity when he turned his life around, joined the
- 21:36Speaker 7: British Army and served with distinction in Afghanista.
- 21:41Speaker 1: He had a real chance to make a hell.
- 21:43Speaker 7: Of a go of it with his life and to
- 21:45Speaker 7: be a role model and to encourage other people, including
- 21:48Speaker 7: other young men who may have lost their way, to
- 21:51Speaker 7: find themselves on a good path.
- 21:54Speaker 1: And then he veered way off it.
- 21:57Speaker 7: And you know now when he says that members of
- 22:01Speaker 7: his family don't want to take his calls, I mean,
- 22:04Speaker 7: it's very hard to know whether he realizes why that
- 22:08Speaker 7: might be.
- 22:09Speaker 1: Because the reason it might.
- 22:11Speaker 7: Be is that whenever any member of his family speaks
- 22:14Speaker 7: to him, they might find what they said either written
- 22:18Speaker 7: up in another book or relayed in interviews with the
- 22:22Speaker 7: BBC and other channels. So you know, it's a very
- 22:26Speaker 7: peculiar thing that's going on at Prince Harry's head, and
- 22:30Speaker 7: I feel very sorry for him if he can't grasp this.
- 22:33Speaker 7: If people around you know that you're likely to run
- 22:37Speaker 7: and broadcast what they say in private to the world,
- 22:42Speaker 7: then yeah, they might be reticent in speaking to you,
- 22:47Speaker 7: and the way to mend that isn't to go on
- 22:51Speaker 7: television and relay the fact that they're not speaking to
- 22:54Speaker 7: you at the moment. I mean, if he said, I
- 22:58Speaker 7: want to reconcile with my father, and they'll do anything
- 23:01Speaker 7: that requires, but I think it should be done away
- 23:04Speaker 7: from the cameras and without any spare volume twos or
- 23:09Speaker 7: anything like that, and there'll be no cooking shows involved.
- 23:13Speaker 1: It's just a family matter.
- 23:14Speaker 7: If he did that, maybe he could actually make this
- 23:18Speaker 7: reunion that he wants. But this is the worst way
- 23:21Speaker 7: to go about it. I can't imagine who is actually
- 23:24Speaker 7: advising Prince Harry, other than possibly for his wife, because
- 23:30Speaker 7: I think only she could give him pr advice this bad.
- 23:37Speaker 3: I think it is Megan. I mean, this is straight
- 23:41Speaker 3: from her playbook. It seems to go to the media
- 23:45Speaker 3: to whine about something that is just going to make
- 23:48Speaker 3: that problem far worse. And is now claiming that they
- 23:51Speaker 3: never claimed the royal family or any members of it
- 23:53Speaker 3: were racist. They're trying to completely rewrite history and memory.
- 23:58Speaker 3: Hold that Oprah interview Douglas, It's been a pleasure. Thanks
- 24:01Speaker 3: for your time tonight.
- 24:02Speaker 1: Great to see you, Rita, Thank you.
- 24:05Speaker 3: Still to come at left he is a losing ed
- 24:07Speaker 3: plus violence, scenes and special guests that this year's met
- 24:11Speaker 3: Gala boor Koshan Gator joins, men, you're watching the Rita
- 24:24Speaker 3: Panny Show and it's time for lefties losing ed. Now
- 24:27Speaker 3: we all remember Neil Young humiliating himself by firstly boycotting
- 24:32Speaker 3: Spotify in protests against Joe Rogan after trying to get
- 24:36Speaker 3: the world's most popular podcaster canceled for so called misinformation
- 24:41Speaker 3: during the COVID era. He wrote, they can have Rogan
- 24:45Speaker 3: or Young, not both. Yes, he wrote that in an
- 24:48Speaker 3: open letter, the silly, old, delusional four was back at
- 24:51Speaker 3: Spotify with his tail between his legs. Seems money trumped
- 24:54Speaker 3: his principles. Now he has launched another protest with a
- 24:59Speaker 3: song and basting elon mask. So let's see what he's
- 25:04Speaker 3: singing here. He's singing what it's doesn't that Yeah, okay,
- 25:18Speaker 3: that's as bad as I expected. If you're wondering what
- 25:22Speaker 3: he's saying there, because it's very hard to tell. The
- 25:24Speaker 3: lyrics are if you're a fascist, get a tesla, it's electric.
- 25:29Speaker 3: It doesn't matter. I'm going to play you the next
- 25:32Speaker 3: ten seconds. I think that's all we can stomach for
- 25:35Speaker 3: one day. Get ready to cringe some more.
- 25:39Speaker 2: You're as.
- 25:49Speaker 3: Somehow that next ten seconds was even worse than the first.
- 25:52Speaker 3: And the lyrics there and I have to tell you
- 25:54Speaker 3: the lyrics because it just sounds like incoherent wailing. But
- 25:57Speaker 3: what he's saying there is, if you're a Democrat, taste
- 26:01Speaker 3: your freedom, get whatever you want. Taste your freedom. Profound
- 26:06Speaker 3: profound stuff. Now, let's check in on some leftyv lefty violence.
- 26:10Speaker 3: I hate it when they turn on each other. Here
- 26:13Speaker 3: is veteran Democrats strategists and Trump de ranged loun James
- 26:16Speaker 3: Carville talking to a junior Democrat strategist and Trump de
- 26:20Speaker 3: ranged Vice chair of the Democratic National Committee, David Hogg.
- 26:24Speaker 3: Grab the popcorn, folks, this is fun.
- 26:27Speaker 10: I think it is abominal that an official of a
- 26:31Speaker 10: political party who is being paid or supported by that
- 26:34Speaker 10: political party to go out and raise money to defeat
- 26:37Speaker 10: members of the same party. I think that's a jack
- 26:40Speaker 10: assery of the highest level. James, can you tell me
- 26:43Speaker 10: you want if you want to beat Republicans, of which,
- 26:47Speaker 10: of course lefties never do. They never even run against them.
- 26:50Speaker 10: That's one thing I'm not into beating Democrats. I'm into
- 26:53Speaker 10: beating Republicans, and I just I'll tell you right to
- 26:56Speaker 10: your face. I think it's abominal that you have anything
- 26:59Speaker 10: to do with the DNA.
- 27:00Speaker 3: Oh it gets better. James Carville is extra spicy here.
- 27:05Speaker 10: I called on Joe Biden to drop out of the
- 27:08Speaker 10: race in twenty twenty two.
- 27:11Speaker 1: Where were you?
- 27:12Speaker 10: Where was the young cool generation coming? Did they step
- 27:17Speaker 10: in there and say something? I spoke out against the
- 27:19Speaker 10: horrific language of identity politics? Where was everybody else?
- 27:23Speaker 11: What is your plan to deal with our abominable approval rating?
- 27:27Speaker 1: When elections? When elections?
- 27:31Speaker 3: Oh so good? Now, let's hear from Hollywood has been
- 27:35Speaker 3: short pen and listen to this absolutely one hinged rant
- 27:39Speaker 3: about Donald Trump. This is the most asinine analogy you'll hear.
- 27:44Speaker 12: Oh yeah, And I do think it's a reasonable theory
- 27:47Speaker 12: that Donald Trump is not unlike the spouse of someone
- 27:51Speaker 12: who leaves him, perhaps for another, who then murders their
- 27:55Speaker 12: former partner because.
- 27:56Speaker 5: If they can't have her, nobody can. I think Donald
- 28:00Speaker 5: Trump and his soleib sism may have that relationship with
- 28:03Speaker 5: the world, and that this destruction is in part a
- 28:08Speaker 5: power play, and also a literal intention of his final out.
- 28:14Speaker 1: You think he'll try to stay on.
- 28:16Speaker 5: I think he might try to destroy the world by
- 28:18Speaker 5: the before he before he ages out of life.
- 28:22Speaker 3: Now do you think there was any pushback, any pushback
- 28:26Speaker 3: against that madness from Jim Acosta or Eric Fang Fang
- 28:30Speaker 3: so well, No, Instead we got this from the man
- 28:34Speaker 3: who had an affair with a Chinese Communist Party spy.
- 28:39Speaker 3: The nerve of this dude, this is just more tedious lunacy.
- 28:42Speaker 13: In the history of dictators or those who aspire to
- 28:46Speaker 13: be dictators. There's never a succession plan, right, There's never
- 28:51Speaker 13: And that's what worries me is if he doesn't believe
- 28:54Speaker 13: there's somebody who can protect him, that you will see
- 28:59Speaker 13: him ratchet up. You know what he's willing to do
- 29:02Speaker 13: to the country.
- 29:03Speaker 3: These people are nuts and massive hypocrites. Because I remember
- 29:08Speaker 3: Sean Penn, this is a dude who actually loves real
- 29:11Speaker 3: death spots, real brutal dictators, like the one who helped
- 29:14Speaker 3: destroy Venezuela. Yes, near Marxist Sean Penn was very fond
- 29:19Speaker 3: of cozing up to the Venezuelan dictator who goes chevertz
- 29:23Speaker 3: oh Will.
- 29:24Speaker 5: Wishing nothing but that great strength he has shown over
- 29:28Speaker 5: and over again.
- 29:29Speaker 1: It is only possible to be so inspiring as he is.
- 29:34Speaker 3: Yeah, he's talking about the dictator there. Seriously, now, I
- 29:37Speaker 3: tell you TEDS is a chronic condition. Indeed, if you
- 29:41Speaker 3: believe the president, it is a fatal condition.
- 29:44Speaker 14: They suffer from a thing called TDS.
- 29:48Speaker 1: Do you know what that is?
- 29:50Speaker 15: TDS. It's a horrible, horrible terminal disease. It destroys the mind.
- 29:58Speaker 15: It destroys the mind before the body, but the body
- 30:01Speaker 15: eventually goes TDS is Trump Derangement syndrome.
- 30:06Speaker 3: He really is the funniest president we've ever had, and
- 30:11Speaker 3: probably the most miserable first Lady we've ever had is
- 30:15Speaker 3: Michelle Obama. This woman can't find anything to be joyful about.
- 30:19Speaker 3: We've heard her wing incessantly about well everything on her
- 30:23Speaker 3: low rating podcast. She has even found a way to
- 30:26Speaker 3: complain about the financial cost of being the first family.
- 30:31Speaker 16: It's expensive to live in the White House. There's many
- 30:34Speaker 16: people don't know. I mean much is not covered. You're
- 30:38Speaker 16: paying for every food and every bit of food that
- 30:40Speaker 16: you eat. You you know, you're not paying for housing
- 30:43Speaker 16: and the staff in it, but everything even travel. If
- 30:46Speaker 16: you're not traveling with the president. If your kids are
- 30:49Speaker 16: coming on a bright Star, which is the first Lady's plane,
- 30:52Speaker 16: we had to play pay for their travel.
- 30:54Speaker 8: To be on the plane.
- 30:56Speaker 16: It is an expensive proposition.
- 30:58Speaker 3: Let's bring in Sky News contributa kosher gata Kosher. The
- 31:02Speaker 3: Obamas went into the White House with mega assets. They're
- 31:06Speaker 3: now worth somewhere between seventy to two hundred and fifty million,
- 31:11Speaker 3: and Michelle Obama continues to push this grievance politics. Is
- 31:16Speaker 3: there no one in a in a circle? He'lls telling her,
- 31:19Speaker 3: this just looks terrible. You look so entireled and.
- 31:23Speaker 17: Miserable, seemingly not really his fascinating. And you know there's
- 31:27Speaker 17: toundaff and then there's torn deaf.
- 31:29Speaker 8: This is just beyond the.
- 31:31Speaker 17: Pair, like, oh, we have to pay for our daughter's
- 31:33Speaker 17: travel and on.
- 31:34Speaker 8: A private jet on a private.
- 31:35Speaker 17: Pay pace for i know, with secret service and everything else.
- 31:38Speaker 17: And yeah, most of us, if we're traveling with our
- 31:40Speaker 17: kids to any corporate event, yeah, the employer doesn't pay
- 31:43Speaker 17: for our kids when we go and travel. So just
- 31:45Speaker 17: the tourn deff is really funny. She's criticized Barack Obama
- 31:49Speaker 17: a lot too on this podcast.
- 31:50Speaker 3: This is what's been interesting. She barely has anything positive
- 31:54Speaker 3: to say about her husband, which in itself is raising eyebrows.
- 31:58Speaker 17: Yeah, and that's what's interesting about the grievance because there's
- 32:01Speaker 17: the you know, the boilerplate grievance that they all do
- 32:04Speaker 17: about racial injustice and social injustice, but in her case
- 32:07Speaker 17: it's personal like having to pay for things or you know,
- 32:10Speaker 17: her husband and.
- 32:11Speaker 3: Marriage decade of unhappiness right talked about, you know, bad decades.
- 32:17Speaker 17: She seems like an unhappy person. I don't want to
- 32:20Speaker 17: do armchair psychoanalysis somebody, but it really seems that way.
- 32:23Speaker 17: And it seems to be the language that she's most
- 32:25Speaker 17: fluent in, the language of grievance, since it keeps coming
- 32:28Speaker 17: out day in and day.
- 32:29Speaker 3: Well, I think she's finding through the data sets she's
- 32:32Speaker 3: getting for a podcast, if anyone in her circle is
- 32:35Speaker 3: honest enough to tell her the truth, the figures aren't good.
- 32:38Speaker 3: I mean, that should tell her something. Despite the enormous
- 32:41Speaker 3: publicity she's receiving now, I played clips of Kamala Harris's
- 32:45Speaker 3: first major speech since the election loss. Here is a
- 32:49Speaker 3: mercifully short eight second reminder. Who saw that video From
- 32:53Speaker 3: a couple of weeks ago, the one of the elephants
- 32:55Speaker 3: at the San Diego Zoo during the earthquake. And here
- 33:02Speaker 3: is Steven Miller with a message for Kamala Harris and
- 33:05Speaker 3: the broken Washington press Corps. This is a powerful rebuke.
- 33:10Speaker 11: The only thing Americans want to hear from Kamala Harris
- 33:13Speaker 11: is an apology for joining Joe Biden. Remember she was
- 33:17Speaker 11: the Borderzar, joining Joe Biden in aiding and abetting the
- 33:21Speaker 11: invasion of our country. And We're never going to stop
- 33:24Speaker 11: talking about this because what they did to this country
- 33:27Speaker 11: is unforgivable. It is an eternal stain on the Democrat Party.
- 33:33Speaker 11: Every day we read another story, every day we arrest
- 33:36Speaker 11: another alien they let into this country, who raped a child,
- 33:40Speaker 11: who beat a woman with an inch of her life,
- 33:42Speaker 11: who murdered a mom, who murdered a dad, who trafficked
- 33:45Speaker 11: drugs into this country, who trafficked fentanyl into this country,
- 33:49Speaker 11: who were responsible for dead and slaughtered Americans. And I
- 33:52Speaker 11: don't know what's broken in the Washington press corps that
- 33:56Speaker 11: none of that moves them emotionally. The only thing that
- 33:59Speaker 11: gets some exercise is do we need to have more
- 34:02Speaker 11: trials for terrorist supporters? We'd have more trials for gang bangers.
- 34:06Speaker 11: We'd have more trials for legally alien invaders, even though
- 34:09Speaker 11: Congress and the Constitution clearly say that you can expel
- 34:12Speaker 11: invaders and illegal aliens quickly, efficiently, and properly kosher.
- 34:18Speaker 3: The Democrats continue to advocate for an MS thirteen gang banger,
- 34:22Speaker 3: or Maryland Dad as they prefer to call him, but
- 34:25Speaker 3: we will hear very little from them, As Stephen Miller
- 34:28Speaker 3: said there about the victims of criminals who have come
- 34:32Speaker 3: into the country illegally, and that is an enormous shortfall
- 34:38Speaker 3: in the Democrats' moral compass. It's like, whose side are
- 34:41Speaker 3: you on? Look at the way they've advocated for this
- 34:44Speaker 3: lone criminal. Multiple Democrats have gone down to El Salvador
- 34:49Speaker 3: to meet with him to advocate on his behalf. But
- 34:52Speaker 3: we don't even hear them mention these American victims of
- 34:56Speaker 3: some of these really violent criminals who walked across the
- 34:59Speaker 3: bord unchecked millions in Biden's four year term.
- 35:05Speaker 17: It's almost like there's two different realities that we're living in,
- 35:09Speaker 17: or that they're living in versus the real world. And
- 35:11Speaker 17: I don't know how much of it is TDS Trump
- 35:14Speaker 17: arrangement syndrome that anything where there's success, that success for
- 35:17Speaker 17: the American people, they just cannot give credit where credit
- 35:19Speaker 17: is due or how much of it is. It doesn't
- 35:21Speaker 17: affect them because they all live in very nice, gated
- 35:23Speaker 17: communities on the coast, so they don't have to live
- 35:26Speaker 17: with that reality. So it's out of sight, out of
- 35:27Speaker 17: mind for them, or it's just resistance. And now the
- 35:31Speaker 17: judicial activism and lawfare is kind of their last line
- 35:35Speaker 17: of defense to try and do that and give due
- 35:37Speaker 17: process to people who exercised no due process when they
- 35:39Speaker 17: came into the country, but they apparently deserve it on
- 35:41Speaker 17: their way out, and that's just the they're lying on.
- 35:44Speaker 3: That would mean you would have these cases given the
- 35:47Speaker 3: millions that have come through for twenty thirty years. I mean,
- 35:51Speaker 3: it is just completely ridiculous to suggest that they have
- 35:55Speaker 3: to exhaust a legal process as if they're American citizens
- 35:59Speaker 3: any titled.
- 35:59Speaker 17: To this right makes makes absolutely no sense. And there
- 36:02Speaker 17: I think there's strategies to run out the clock. Yeah,
- 36:04Speaker 17: because we've only got three and a half years left
- 36:06Speaker 17: of this administration. Who knows what will happen in twenty
- 36:08Speaker 17: twenty eight, and this is going to a head about
- 36:11Speaker 17: the judicial branch and the executive branch, and it is
- 36:13Speaker 17: possible that you might see a point where the executive
- 36:16Speaker 17: branch doesn't comply with an order, and that is going
- 36:18Speaker 17: to be the so called constitutional crisis.
- 36:20Speaker 3: Now, Steven Miller, who you just heard from there, is
- 36:23Speaker 3: in line to be elevated to President Trump's next National
- 36:26Speaker 3: security advisor. Mike Waltz was ousted from the role last week.
- 36:31Speaker 3: This is a move that would be enormously popular with
- 36:34Speaker 3: the Trump based Kosher Stephen Miller is very well regarded.
- 36:38Speaker 17: Indeed, he is the OG when it comes to immigration.
- 36:42Speaker 17: This very strong, legally, very smart lawyer, really seems to
- 36:45Speaker 17: believe in this issue. There's all these means how the
- 36:49Speaker 17: Trump administration in his orbit inner circle, we're plotting for
- 36:52Speaker 17: four years about their return and what they'll do. And
- 36:54Speaker 17: he's always at the top of that as somebody who
- 36:56Speaker 17: just came up in strategy exactly what statutes are going
- 36:59Speaker 17: to rely, exactly what eeos are going to do. And
- 37:02Speaker 17: he understands that immigration and border security is national security.
- 37:06Speaker 17: That is one of the core tenets of it. And
- 37:08Speaker 17: so him if he is elevated to that position, I
- 37:11Speaker 17: think it's going to bring a very interesting flavor.
- 37:14Speaker 3: Now, the met gala was on earlier today, and naturally
- 37:17Speaker 3: there were scenes of violence, with anti Israeli activists attacking
- 37:21Speaker 3: pro Israeli activists and Kosher. One of the attendees of
- 37:25Speaker 3: this seventy thousand dollars ahead get together was Kamala Harris.
- 37:30Speaker 10: Now.
- 37:30Speaker 3: She was wearing an outfit described thusly by Vanity Fair,
- 37:35Speaker 3: a bespoke black and cream silk off white dress featuring
- 37:39Speaker 3: color blocking and a dramatic trailing sleeve, as well as
- 37:43Speaker 3: a black scarf that doubled as a diminutive train for
- 37:47Speaker 3: the look. It's also been compared to the iconic New
- 37:51Speaker 3: York favorite dessert, the black and white cookie. That's a
- 37:53Speaker 3: bit harsh. On a more serious note, Kosher, Kamala Harris
- 37:58Speaker 3: is positioning herself to write again, and the polls show
- 38:01Speaker 3: that out of that very shallow talent pool, she is
- 38:04Speaker 3: the front runner at the moment.
- 38:07Speaker 17: In her defense, she's not an unattractive lady, so I
- 38:09Speaker 17: think I probably would have done one more fitting with address.
- 38:12Speaker 17: But I think the black and white can look quite elegant,
- 38:14Speaker 17: so I think she just maybe missed the mark a
- 38:17Speaker 17: little bit.
- 38:17Speaker 8: But it wasn't terrible she is a front runner.
- 38:20Speaker 17: I think it's recency biased, just because she was in
- 38:22Speaker 17: the limelight, you know, for such a long period of time,
- 38:25Speaker 17: and was elevated to that role once things get serious
- 38:29Speaker 17: eighteen months or so from now, two years from now,
- 38:31Speaker 17: and you're going to see the likes of Gavin Newsom
- 38:33Speaker 17: or Josh Shapiro or Wetchend Whitmer, other people Mark Kelly
- 38:37Speaker 17: throw their hats into the ring. I think all of
- 38:39Speaker 17: that's going to recalibrate, and nobody can forget that she
- 38:42Speaker 17: has never won anything anytime she's run for any election
- 38:45Speaker 17: other than DA and Senator in California.
- 38:48Speaker 8: But that's kind of a foregone conclusion.
- 38:49Speaker 3: If you're done well, yeah, if you've got a D
- 38:51Speaker 3: next to your name, Ananimate carbon Rod can get elected.
- 38:55Speaker 3: Before you go, let's talk a little bit about Prince
- 38:57Speaker 3: Harry has been busy trying to write history.
- 39:00Speaker 1: You accuse members of your family of racism. You don't
- 39:03Speaker 1: even well of the British press said that, right.
- 39:08Speaker 8: I did. Megan never mention the races.
- 39:12Speaker 7: She said there were troubling comments about about his skin color, right.
- 39:17Speaker 16: Concerns and conversations about how dark his skin might be
- 39:20Speaker 16: when he's born.
- 39:21Speaker 8: What who is having that conversation? There is a conversation
- 39:27Speaker 8: to hold up the several conversations.
- 39:30Speaker 16: There's a conversation with you with Harry about how dark
- 39:38Speaker 16: your baby is going to be?
- 39:39Speaker 3: Yes, Harry and Meghan made that a major theme of
- 39:42Speaker 3: their Docco reality series is really what it was kosher?
- 39:46Speaker 3: Now they want to claim it was all the work
- 39:49Speaker 3: of the evil media, that they were just talking about
- 39:52Speaker 3: unconscious bias. I mean these cement games they're playing, No
- 39:55Speaker 3: one's falling for it.
- 39:56Speaker 8: No one's falling for it.
- 39:57Speaker 17: There is a blueprint for it, whether it's everybody pretending
- 40:00Speaker 17: that nobody knew about Joe Biden's mental decline or this.
- 40:03Speaker 17: They tend to memory hold things and think we're not
- 40:05Speaker 17: paying attention. We live in the day and age of
- 40:08Speaker 17: videotape and social media, and that footage over there is
- 40:11Speaker 17: never going to be forgotten, both what she said and
- 40:13Speaker 17: Oprah's bad acting, which is like what nobody's gonna never
- 40:17Speaker 17: forget that.
- 40:18Speaker 8: And he can try to rewrite history all he wants,
- 40:20Speaker 8: It's not going to.
- 40:20Speaker 3: Work, kosher. Thank you so much for your time, colociator.
- 40:24Speaker 3: Still to come, the Star Studed musical featuring a black
- 40:28Speaker 3: actress portraying Jesus. Alex steins up next Welcome back now
- 40:43Speaker 3: the usual suspects, the Democrats and their propaganda round. The
- 40:46Speaker 3: bulk of the mainstream media had another meltdown over this
- 40:50Speaker 3: amusing image of President Donald Trump as the next Pope,
- 40:54Speaker 3: obviously a little bit of fun and frivolity thanks to
- 40:57Speaker 3: the Wonders of AI. Acording to some, it's hugely offensive
- 41:02Speaker 3: to Catholics.
- 41:03Speaker 17: See Catholics, we're not so happy about the image of
- 41:06Speaker 17: you looking like the Pope.
- 41:08Speaker 4: Oh, I see.
- 41:09Speaker 14: You mean they can't take a joke. You don't mean
- 41:11Speaker 14: the Catholics, You mean the fake news media, not the
- 41:14Speaker 14: Catholics loved it. I had nothing to do with it.
- 41:18Speaker 14: Somebody made up a picture of me dressed like the
- 41:20Speaker 14: Pope and they put it out on the internet.
- 41:22Speaker 3: Johnny me Now is comedian and host of Primetime with
- 41:25Speaker 3: Alex Stein on Blas tav Alex, you're a Christian? Were
- 41:30Speaker 3: you offended by that image? Do you know many Catholics
- 41:34Speaker 3: who are outraged by that image?
- 41:37Speaker 1: Well, a lot of people don't know this.
- 41:38Speaker 18: You know, my last name is Stein, but I was
- 41:40Speaker 18: actually raised as a Christian. I was baptized and you
- 41:43Speaker 18: know what, as a Christian, that is not disrespectful whatsoever.
- 41:47Speaker 18: It is satire. And I honestly believe that, you know,
- 41:50Speaker 18: Donald Trump, he knew all about it, and I think
- 41:52Speaker 18: he was trying to position himself a little bit because
- 41:54Speaker 18: I don't think there are any actual prerequisites to be
- 41:56Speaker 18: the Pope.
- 41:57Speaker 1: So could you imagine Pope.
- 41:59Speaker 18: Donald Trump, the world would actually it might actually get
- 42:02Speaker 18: fixed pretty quick. If that was the case.
- 42:05Speaker 3: I can't see that happening. Yeah, maybe after his presidency
- 42:08Speaker 3: he can turn his hand to being the next Pope. Now,
- 42:12Speaker 3: there may be a few Christians who are offended by
- 42:16Speaker 3: this next production, and I'm tipping that's what the creators
- 42:19Speaker 3: are hoping for. This isn't just fun and frivolity, is it.
- 42:22Speaker 3: You got Adam Lambert joining the Castle of Jesus Christ
- 42:25Speaker 3: Superstar the Hollywood Ball playing Judas, and guess who is
- 42:29Speaker 3: playing Jesus. It's Cynthia Arrevo. That sounds like fun, Alexa,
- 42:34Speaker 3: Will you be making a trip to Hollywood for Opening Night?
- 42:39Speaker 8: No way.
- 42:40Speaker 18: It's like Dylan Mulvaney's book, Nobody's going to go see
- 42:42Speaker 18: this play? Nobody by Dylan Mulvaney's book, I mean, it
- 42:45Speaker 18: is going to get covered by you know, Sky News,
- 42:48Speaker 18: Fox News, the liberal media because it is interesting. But really,
- 42:51Speaker 18: I don't think that anybody actually wants to go see
- 42:54Speaker 18: that horrible production. So Jesus Christ Superstar being extra gay
- 42:58Speaker 18: and extra DEI I mean, give me a break. I
- 43:01Speaker 18: just do not think people are going to be clamoring.
- 43:03Speaker 10: Up for that.
- 43:03Speaker 18: And you consider over half the country likes Donald Trump,
- 43:06Speaker 18: so over half the country is not going to like
- 43:08Speaker 18: it regardless, So I really don't see it being a
- 43:10Speaker 18: financial success.
- 43:13Speaker 3: Now. Rapper and music mogul Sean P. Did He Combs
- 43:17Speaker 3: was in court for jury selection Todays. He's facing five
- 43:22Speaker 3: criminal counts, including sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion,
- 43:26Speaker 3: transportation for purposes of prostitution, and racketeering conspiracy Alex. If
- 43:33Speaker 3: he's ultimately found guilty, he may never see the outside
- 43:38Speaker 3: of a jail cell again. He may die behind bars.
- 43:43Speaker 18: No, and that is a sad reality that is probably
- 43:45Speaker 18: going to happen. And listen, I am not on Puff
- 43:47Speaker 18: Daddy's side whatsoever. The tape of him beating his fiance
- 43:51Speaker 18: at the time is absolutely disgusting, but it is absolutely
- 43:54Speaker 18: crazy to think that Puff Daddy is going to go
- 43:57Speaker 18: to jail for sex trafficking, for throwing parties people all
- 44:00Speaker 18: willingly went to, you know, influential people went to these parties,
- 44:03Speaker 18: you know, similar to these Epstein parties. So there's just
- 44:06Speaker 18: a lot of weird stuff at play, and it's kind
- 44:08Speaker 18: of sad that, you know, a guy that was once
- 44:10Speaker 18: arguably the top rapper, top producer, you know, in the
- 44:14Speaker 18: entire industry, is now going to potentially, you know, die
- 44:19Speaker 18: behind bars. It's just a very tragic story and I
- 44:21Speaker 18: don't even think Hollywood could have written it.
- 44:25Speaker 3: Well it's a self inflicted tragedy. But you're right, there
- 44:29Speaker 3: were a lot of high profile, very famous people who
- 44:32Speaker 3: attended these parties. Are we expecting to hear any of
- 44:35Speaker 3: those names in course? Are they fearful of what may
- 44:39Speaker 3: be revealed throughout this trial?
- 44:42Speaker 18: I mean, I would think that they would be very nervous.
- 44:45Speaker 18: You saw Jay Z going after you know, Tony Bobbolenski
- 44:48Speaker 18: and you know Tony Buzzby. I forget the Texas attorney,
- 44:51Speaker 18: but I'm just saying there's a lot of influential celebrities
- 44:54Speaker 18: that could go down with the ship. And I know
- 44:56Speaker 18: that they want tucked auty to take some sort of
- 44:58Speaker 18: deal so that he doesn't have to actually go to court.
- 45:00Speaker 18: So but that he knows that, he knows that he
- 45:02Speaker 18: has a little negotiating power, and that's why he hasn't
- 45:04Speaker 18: accepted the plea deal, because he knows that he can.
- 45:07Speaker 18: You know, he knows where the berries are bodied, he
- 45:09Speaker 18: knows where the bodies are buried, you know, metaphorically.
- 45:13Speaker 3: Well, I hope that's just a metaphor, Alex. He's alleged
- 45:17Speaker 3: to have taped so much of this debauchery, so you
- 45:20Speaker 3: do wonder what is out there, what the police FBI
- 45:25Speaker 3: have in custody, and if it features some of the
- 45:28Speaker 3: famous people that we know attended these parties. Now, let's
- 45:33Speaker 3: lighten things up a tad with this amusing story told
- 45:36Speaker 3: by former Alabama football coach the Great Nick Saban about
- 45:40Speaker 3: what happened in the Oval office.
- 45:42Speaker 4: He's got this very big, good looking auspicious box on
- 45:48Speaker 4: his desk that has a red button on top. And
- 45:52Speaker 4: one of the players said, is that what you want
- 45:54Speaker 4: some missiles with? And he said, well push it and
- 45:57Speaker 4: find out what player said, No, I don't want to
- 46:01Speaker 4: do that. He said, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead,
- 46:03Speaker 4: push it. See see what happens. Find out. So Rashaun
- 46:07Speaker 4: Evans finally got the guts up, went over, pushed the
- 46:10Speaker 4: red button. Some lady came in with a coke on
- 46:12Speaker 4: a tree.
- 46:16Speaker 3: Oh, we're getting all these amusing stories. We've got people
- 46:19Speaker 3: within the football fraternity. You are no longer terrified of
- 46:24Speaker 3: being associated with Trump, being pictured with Trump. It's a
- 46:28Speaker 3: very different dynamic than just a few years ago during
- 46:32Speaker 3: his first term.
- 46:34Speaker 18: Now and Rita, I graduated from LSU Louisiana State University,
- 46:38Speaker 18: and you know, so it tells you that I'm not
- 46:39Speaker 18: the smartest guy in the world, but Alabama's our rival.
- 46:42Speaker 18: And even though that I detest Alabama, hearing this story
- 46:45Speaker 18: and hearing you know, you know, coach Shaban talking about
- 46:49Speaker 18: how they thought it was so funny, and Trump basically
- 46:51Speaker 18: trolled the Rashawn Evans or the player to press the button,
- 46:55Speaker 18: thinking that he was going to start nuclear war. I
- 46:57Speaker 18: love it. I'm so happy that he rolled Alabama.
- 46:59Speaker 1: This is the president we wanted.
- 47:00Speaker 18: Joe Biden doesn't have that sense of humor. Joe Biden
- 47:03Speaker 18: doesn't have any funny, funny buttons or gimmicks to play
- 47:06Speaker 18: on the Alabama Crimson tie So that's why we love
- 47:09Speaker 18: Donald Trump, because he's a man of you know, pizazz
- 47:12Speaker 18: in style and Greece.
- 47:16Speaker 3: I love that the players still press that button, even
- 47:20Speaker 3: suspecting that it could launch some sort of a nuclear
- 47:23Speaker 3: weapon somewhere. He still was curious enough to press to
- 47:27Speaker 3: press the button. Now, finally, I know Americans think that
- 47:31Speaker 3: Australia is just full of deadly creatures. You have no
- 47:36Speaker 3: idea how we survived day to day, and this next
- 47:39Speaker 3: story might just reinforce that IDEA South Australian family has
- 47:44Speaker 3: helped rescue eight great white shark that was stuck in
- 47:48Speaker 3: shallow waters. These pictures are quite remarkable. Three locals teamed
- 47:53Speaker 3: up with a nash core and his eleven year old
- 47:56Speaker 3: son to move this three meter long shark, the deadly
- 48:00Speaker 3: shark there is a great white into deep water and
- 48:04Speaker 3: savor Alex. This story is peak Australia, isn't it.
- 48:11Speaker 18: I know Ozzie's are just fearless, and that's why a
- 48:13Speaker 18: lot of Americans I think we like Ozzie's and we
- 48:16Speaker 18: get along so well because they're kind of just like
- 48:18Speaker 18: people from Florida. They're insane. They're willing to save a
- 48:21Speaker 18: shark This is a typical, you know, occurrence that happens
- 48:24Speaker 18: in the state of Florida. So there's a lot of
- 48:25Speaker 18: similarities and that's why, you know, listen, when you see
- 48:29Speaker 18: on TikTok those big spiders though, read it. That is scary.
- 48:32Speaker 18: We see that in America and we think there's all
- 48:33Speaker 18: these big spiders. But everybody talks about how great Australia is.
- 48:37Speaker 1: So I need to be there.
- 48:38Speaker 18: I'm going to be there at twenty five.
- 48:40Speaker 3: The spiders a big and wonderful, can't waite. Alex Stein,
- 48:46Speaker 3: thank you, And that's all the time we've got. I'll
- 48:49Speaker 3: see you tomorrow night at eleven. Up next it's Newsnight.
